Upon the Throne.

After learning that he had arrived in the world of Super Seminary, Su Mu calmed his mind and asked the system within his thoughts, "System, aside from those under the Heavenly Court's rule, can others still not provide me with Prestige Points?"

That was right—Prestige Points!

The reason Su Mu had been able to establish the Cyber Heavenly Court across this starfield over the past century was largely thanks to the system.

And the "currency" required by the system was Prestige Points!

At present, nearly everything within the entire Cyber Heavenly Court had been exchanged by Su Mu from the system using Prestige Points.

Take, for example, the various fleets of the Cyber Heavenly Court!

Every single one of these fleets was built from warship blueprints that Su Mu had exchanged from the system using Prestige Points!

And it wasn't just the fleets—there were also all kinds of Super Genes that granted humans extraordinary powers!

Consider Su Mu's personal guards, "Yang Jian" and "Nezha"!

In the beginning, they were merely ordinary people, but after Su Mu bestowed Super Genes upon them, they gained abilities akin to the gods and immortals of Huaxia!

So, for Su Mu, Prestige Points were definitely a good thing!

However, these Prestige Points had one major flaw: they could only be generated within Su Mu's own territory.

In other words, if Su Mu wanted to gain more Prestige Points, he would have to continuously conquer various intelligent civilizations and bring them under his rule!

That was precisely why Su Mu had spent nearly a hundred years completely conquering the entire starfield and incorporating it under the Cyber Heavenly Court's dominion.

As soon as Su Mu's question was raised, the system's voice quickly rang out.

"Yes, Host."

"Prestige Points can still only be obtained from the intelligent lifeforms under your command."

Hearing the system's response, Su Mu said nothing more.

This situation was already within his expectations.

But since Prestige Points could only be obtained from the intelligent lifeforms under his command, then he should also start preparing to dispatch troops at any time to conquer the Super God Universe.

With this in mind, Su Mu began to consider which squad he should send as the vanguard to scout the path ahead for the Cyber Heavenly Court's army.

After all, the choice of scout had to be made with great caution!

First, the candidate's personal strength had to be formidable, and second, they had to have experience commanding troops in battle!

Otherwise, a single misstep could leave the entire Cyber Heavenly Court army in a passive position!

Just as Su Mu was pondering, the sharp "clang, clang" of combat boots striking metal suddenly rang out, interrupting his train of thought.

Since his thoughts had been broken, Su Mu simply looked up to see who was approaching.

As Su Mu raised his head, a young man dressed in military attire and draped in golden armor appeared within the Lingxiao Palace.

Though the young man had a handsome face, the aura he exuded was by no means lacking in authority.

And what was most striking and impossible to ignore was the Divine Mark between his eyes on his forehead.

"Greetings, Heavenly Venerate!" Facing Su Mu seated upon the throne above, Yang Jian did not hesitate for a moment. He knelt on one knee, offering his highest respect.

Watching Yang Jian bow to him below, Su Mu's mind stirred.

He had just been considering who to send to lead the team and pave the way for the entire Heavenly Court army.

Now that he saw Yang Jian, Su Mu suddenly felt that having Yang Jian lead the team would be just fine.

Yang Jian met both of the criteria mentioned earlier!

As Su Mu's personal guard, Yang Jian's strength was beyond question!

And combat experience?

With Su Mu's approval, Yang Jian had once commanded a Heavenly Court army that swept through dozens of star systems in a single day!

With this thought, Su Mu immediately ordered Yang Jian, "Yang Jian, I'll give you half a day to select a vanguard squad."

"Objective: Explore the worlds beyond the Heavenly Court Starfield."

"Yes! Yang Jian accepts the order!" Kneeling on one knee, Yang Jian did not utter a single unnecessary word. He simply turned and left the Lingxiao Palace.

For Yang Jian, he didn't need to know what schemes the Heavenly Venerate had in mind; he only needed to know the mission the Heavenly Venerate had given him!

As long as the Heavenly Venerate issued him a command, even if it meant ordering him to seek light within a black hole, he would carry it out without hesitation!

Solar Star.

Council Hall.

Under Pan Zhen's leadership, all the elders of Solar Star had gathered here to begin their discussion.

"According to the rules of this Ranking System, can our Solar Star secure a place on this ranking?" Pan Zhen, clad in Silver Armor, sat boldly on a stool and asked the surrounding elders.

Although Pan Zhen was the Great General of Solar Star, he did not know exactly how many aerospace-level warships the entire Solar Star possessed.

This was because Solar Star had been replacing its ships at an extremely rapid pace in recent years, almost completely renewing them every six months.

After the replacements, the decommissioned warships were all handled by the Elder Council, and Pan Zhen had never inquired about it.

"If we're only talking about warships that can reach the Spacefaring Level, then our Solar Star does have quite a stockpile."

"However, their quality leaves something to be desired. Whether they can make it into the top three of the Ranking System, we cannot guarantee." After some deliberation, the Elder Council spoke slowly to Pan Zhen.

Hearing this, Pan Zhen's brow furrowed deeply, but he knew this matter could not be blamed on the Elder Council.

After a moment of contemplation, Pan Zhen spoke again: "Then can you calculate who will make it onto the rankings?"

As Pan Zhen spoke, the members of the Elder Council began discussing among themselves once more.

After about a few minutes, the First Elder of the Elder Council addressed Pan Zhen: "According to our calculations, if those Triangular Body bio-warships count as warships, then first place should go to the Triangular Body."

"Second place, barring any surprises, should be the Angel Civilization. Their civilization has ten thousand years of accumulated strength, far surpassing ours."

"As for third place, it will be a contest between us and Styx. Who ultimately claims that spot depends on how the Ranking System defines its criteria."

"If those Triangular Body bio-warships are not counted as warships..."

"Then our Lieyang Civilization's final ranking should fall somewhere between second and third."

Listening to the Elder Council's analysis, Pan Zhen nodded to show he understood.

There was nothing he could do about this situation. After all, whether it was the Angel Civilization or the Triangular Body, both were behemoths in the eyes of Lieyang!

Just as every civilization was analyzing who might make it onto the rankings, the Blue Screen in space began to ripple continuously.

Amidst these ripples, lines of text slowly appeared!

[Warship Quantity Ranking!] [Third Place: Lieyang Civilization!] [Second Place: Angel Civilization!] [First Place: Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization!]

With the release of the ranking, the entire universe erupted in uproar!
