Dragon Nation Takes First in National Destiny, Primordial World!

On the National Destiny Rankings, golden light blazed brilliantly as everyone held their breath and stared at the screen floating in the air. Information about the first-place participant in the National Destiny Training slowly appeared.

[Rank 1]

[Participant: Li Yi]

[Nation: Dragon Nation]

[Training World: Primordial World]

[Realm: Peak Primordial Unity Supreme Immortal]

[Training Reward: Dragon Nation Fortune +50%, comprehension of all Dragon Nation citizens +50%, initial identity talent of all Dragon Nation citizens in training +100%!]

Silence!

A deathly silence filled every National Destiny Plaza and livestream!

Everyone stared dumbfoundedly at the ranking information on the screen, as though they had lost their souls.

Several seconds later, messages exploded across every National Destiny Plaza and livestream.

"Dragon Nation is first!? How is that possible!?"

"Primordial World? What kind of world is that? I've never even heard of it!"

"Primordial Unity Supreme Immortal? What kind of realm is that?"

"The key is the Fortune reward! Dragon Nation's Fortune increased by 50% outright!? My God! That's a full three times more than second-place Eagle Sauce Nation! This Li Yi is definitely far stronger than Eagle Sauce Nation's Serafino!"

"How could this happen? Dragon Nation's Fortune has declined. Normally, even if the Primordial World really is powerful, it should've been impossible for their citizens to survive after entering it for training!"

"Yeah, this completely violates the rules of National Destiny!"

Other nations might have merely been astonished, but when Cherry Blossom Nation's viewers saw that first place belonged to someone from Dragon Nation, they began swearing in fury.

"Bastard, what kind of shit luck was that? A Dragon Nation citizen took first place?"

"How could this happen?"

"That Dragon Nation guy definitely cheated! How could this Primordial World be stronger than our Naruto World?"

"No, it's only because that Li Yi is stronger than Kaito! Whatever this Primordial Unity Supreme Immortal is, it definitely can't be a match for our Sage of Six Paths..."

At the same time, dazzling golden light poured down from above the clouds over Dragon Nation. Before Dragon Nation's viewers could recover from the shock of taking first place, their entire bodies had already been enveloped in the golden radiance.

Seeing the golden glow rise from their bodies, many Dragon Nation viewers were so emotional that tears welled up in their eyes.

"Fortune rewards! It's a Fortune reward! I haven't felt a Fortune reward in a full ten years!"

"This reward is far more generous than the Fortune reward from ten years ago!"

"Ten years ago, Dragon Nation only ranked eighth in that National Destiny Trial. This time, we're first!"

"Not just first—we're first by a margin far beyond second place! In previous trials, a 10% Fortune increase was already considered exceptional. With this 50% Fortune increase and 100% initial talent boost, Dragon Nation will surely rise in future training!"

"Li Yi! Dragon Nation actually produced such a super genius!?"

"What class is he in? Why had we never heard of him before?"

Inside the instructors' room beneath National Destiny Trial Square, Wang Gang felt the golden light overflowing from his body. As he looked at the information displayed on the screen before him, a trace of bewilderment appeared on his face.

Li Yi!?

Was it Li Yi from his class!?

That was right! Combined with the Primordial World listed after it, it was definitely Li Yi from his class!

He had become first in National Destiny!?

Recalling how he had previously placed all his hopes on Zhao Xuan of Soul Land World and had felt rather disdainful of Li Yi for choosing the Primordial World, Wang Gang's face alternated between red and white.

Hearing the belated congratulations from his colleagues beside him, Wang Gang knew that he deserved none of the credit. His embarrassment made his face darken even further.

While some rejoiced, others worried. Seeing Dragon Nation's Fortune golden light surge on the livestream screen, Cherry Blossom Nation might have been gritting its teeth in fury, but it was not to the point of heartbreak.

However, Eagle Sauce Nation's viewers on the other side were nearly bursting with rage at the sight!

Before the trial rankings were revealed, no one in Eagle Sauce Nation had doubted that they would take first place this year!

Even after Serafino, whom they had believed to be the strongest, had already been revealed, they remained fully confident that first place would surely belong to Eagle Sauce Nation's super genius who had explored an unknown world.

After all, only their Fortune could support an unknown genius in exploring an unknown world even stronger than Heaven World!

Yet the National Destiny Training results now slapped them hard across the face!

Not only had Dragon Nation taken first place in the trial, but the Fortune increase and new world's initial identity increase it received far surpassed what they had gained.

As the nation that regarded itself as Blue Star's leader, Eagle Sauce Nation could not accept this.

"Could Dragon Nation's Primordial World be more powerful than Heaven World?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! The strongest force in Heaven World, the Legendary Angel, can destroy a planet with a wave of the hand. Dragon Nation cannot possibly have a training world stronger than Heaven World!"

"That's right, that Dragon Nation brat merely got lucky. We'll definitely catch up later!"

At the same time, Robert, the Speaker of Eagle Sauce Nation Congress, was also flying into a rage at the congressional venue.

"When did Dragon Nation produce a Primordial World? Why didn't our intelligence department have the slightest information on it?"

A congressman below replied awkwardly.

"According to our investigation, this Primordial World is entirely an unknown world! No one from Dragon Nation had survived in that world before, and even Dragon Nation itself has no information whatsoever about it..."

Another congressman immediately added.

"Li Yi must have gotten incredibly lucky and obtained an initial identity with extremely high talent! In that Primordial World, he might already count as being in a high realm!"

Initial identities were generally tied to Fortune, but nothing was absolute. Some people could obtain initial identities with extraordinarily high talent through sheer luck. Of course, the odds were extremely low; across dozens of National Destiny Training sessions and hundreds of billions of new participants, perhaps only one such person would appear.

As soon as those words were spoken, the other congressmen immediately echoed them.

"That's right, this Dragon Nation newcomer is only lucky. That so-called Primordial World cannot possibly be stronger than Heaven World!"

"Based on our exploration, Heaven World is definitely the most terrifying of all training worlds!"

"Mr. Speaker, although we lost the first day's trial, Dragon Nation's luck ends here. Tomorrow's National Destiny Rankings will be based on the divine artifacts in the participants' hands! According to our plan, Serafino will definitely obtain Heaven World's supreme divine artifact, the Seraphim Scepter!"

"There is also a high chance of obtaining the Cherubim Scepter. Serafino may possess more than one supreme divine artifact! Eagle Sauce Nation has a chance to seize the top three spots on the divine artifact rankings!"

"And in the National Destiny Battlefield afterward, given Serafino's bloodline, there is a high probability that he can summon one of the six Legendary Angels... Eagle Sauce Nation cannot possibly lose the rankings that follow!"

Although they had lost the first day's trial rankings to Dragon Nation, the people of Eagle Sauce Nation remained completely confident.

Heaven World was simply too terrifying.

Their nation had explored it for more than ten sessions, yet no one had ever been able to rival the Legendary Angels of that world, or even reach the level just beneath them!

There was absolutely no way Dragon Nation's newly emerged Primordial World could contain anyone more powerful than a Legendary Angel capable of annihilating planets with a casual wave of the hand!
