Di Lena, Morgana, Suo Dun...
Ye Chen was naturally no stranger to these names.
These were all names that existed in the world of Super God Academy!
In other words, this starfield was part of the Super God Universe!
Moreover, the known civilizations of the Super God world were very likely the civilizations beyond the Mist!
Ding—Abnormal energy source detected
Just then, the system prompt in Ye Chen's mind sounded once more.
Analyzing...
Analysis successful
Abnormal energy successfully analyzed. System upgraded.
"The system upgraded?"
Ye Chen frowned slightly. "What exactly is going on?"
Description: This system is an Exposure System. The greater the exposure of the civilization possessed by the host, the more points the host obtains.
Ye Chen understood that perfectly well.
He had transmigrated to this unknown starfield, become the Emperor who ruled the Immortal Qin Empire, and activated the system at the same time.
The system was based on exposure!
As long as the Immortal Qin Empire gained greater exposure, Ye Chen could earn points from it, spend those points to unlock the technology tree, and exchange them for all kinds of super technologies.
It could be said that the Immortal Qin Empire had conquered every civilization throughout the starfield precisely because of the system's exchanges.
And the act that increased exposure the most was conquest.
Using the technology he had exchanged, Ye Chen rapidly developed the Immortal Qin Empire while building all kinds of powerful Stellar-Class Battleships.
After the entire starfield had been unified, Ye Chen's system could no longer serve much purpose. The Immortal Qin Empire already ruled the starfield, after all, and there was no way to increase its exposure any further.
That was why he had turned his attention toward the Mist beyond this starfield.
Based on the long-standing records of countless civilizations, this Mist simply could not be traversed.
Even Ye Chen, who possessed the system, had no way to expand the Immortal Qin Empire's territory beyond the Mist.
For a time, Ye Chen had believed this starfield was the entire universe.
But now, from this Cosmic Civilization Ranking that had appeared from who knew where, he understood one thing.
He was in the Super God Universe.
And this entire starfield was not the whole universe.
Description: The host cannot obtain exposure from other civilizations through exposure originating from the Cosmic Civilization Ranking.
However, after the system upgrade, a new technology tree will be unlocked, and exposure can also be obtained from other civilizations.
There was actually something this good?
The corners of Ye Chen's lips rose slightly.
Just then, the Light Screen in the sky began to churn again.
The ranking begins!
Drawing parameters...

Super God Universe Civilization—Social Research Ranking begins
Description: This ranking is a Social Research Ranking. It will comprehensively evaluate factors such as a civilization's citizens' living standards, widely available Civilian Technology, Space Stations, and more.
Fallen Queen Morgana: Fuck! What does this Ranking List mean? Is it picking on our Demon Civilization?
Holy Queen Keisha: Heh... In this regard, your demons might rank at the bottom of the entire universe.
Demon One.
"Bitch! That bitch Keisha!"
Morgana slammed the table and rose to her feet, crushing the cup in her hand directly into powder.
"That little bitch Keisha! She has the nerve to talk about me? Does that bitch think she deserves to!?"
A Tuo, standing nearby, sighed and carefully chose his words.
"Your Majesty, in this regard, Keisha..."
"Bitch! Add 'bitch' to her name!"
"Yes, Your Majesty. The Angel Civilization under that bitch Keisha truly has no right to mock you."
"Hm?"
A Tuo continued, "Your Majesty, as you know, in Keisha... bitch's Angel Civilization, citizens make up only a small portion. Every adult angel becomes part of the military..."
"That's right!"
Morgana had clearly been provoked by Keisha. She herself had once been an angel, yet she had actually forgotten that.
Morgana beamed, then gave a disdainful snort. "Hmph, she probably just wants to bait me into revealing my location so she can come kill me... that bitch!"
Fallen Queen Morgana: Keisha, you bitch! You have the nerve to talk about me?
Left-Wing Guardian Angel Yan: How dare you! If you insult Holy Queen Keisha again, the Angel's Sword will surely slay you, demon!
Fallen Queen Morgana: Get lost. I'm talking to your Queen Keisha. It's not your place, kid.
Galaxy Power Ge Xiaolun: Don't argue! Let's all get along and be friendly...
Space-Time Qiang Wei, Angel Yan, Fallen Queen Morgana: Shut up!
Solar System, Super God Academy.
"Hiss, why do I feel like I don't quite get it?"
After reading the explanation on the Cosmic Civilization Ranking, Liu Chuang looked utterly confused.
"Oh?" Di Lena glanced at him. "What don't you get?"
"I get what this Super God Universe Ranking List is." Liu Chuang scratched his head. "But what the heck is this Social Research Ranking?"
"You don't even understand that?"
Di Lena chuckled. "It's simple. It's just about citizens' food, clothing, housing, and transportation."
"Put simply, you eat rice grown in the fields, drink water from the river, live in a house a few dozen square meters big, and drive a little car when you go out. That's society."
"This..."
Liu Chuang was even more confused after hearing that. "What can that even rank?"
"Of course it can determine who comes first and who comes later!" Di Lena's voice abruptly rose. "Technology! Do you understand technology? The strength of Civilian Technology directly reflects the level of military technology. It's extremely important to a civilization."
Qiang Wei explained at the right moment, "For example, our civilization's current level of Civilian Technology is definitely stronger than back when we wore animal-hide clothes and hunted bison with stone spears."
"Oh, oh!" Liu Chuang suddenly understood. "Now I get it!"
"Still..." Di Lena sighed. "You can't put it entirely that way."
"Some civilizations are like your Blue Star. Their Civilian Technology is only one or two levels behind their military technology. They're prosperous, unified civilizations. But there are other civilizations in the Shenhe, such as the Angel Civilization. Their Civilian Technology lags far behind their military technology, making them highly militarized civilizations. Then there's our Liesun Civilization."
"Man, I always hear you talking about the Liesun Civilization, Captain. Everyone over there can't be as strong as you, right?"
"What are you talking about? There is only one Sun Goddess!" Di Lena put her hands on her hips, a hint of pride appearing on her face. "I'm the one and only goddess, the one and only! Goddess! Got it?"
"Got it, got it!"
Liu Chuang grinned foolishly. "Our captain is still awesome!"
Just then, the Light Screen in the sky churned once again.
The Super God Universe Civilization Social Research Degree Ranking has concluded

Fallen Queen Morgana: What... what the fuck kind of joke is this!?
