"Teacher, I..."

Jin Tianzhao connected to the virtual network and immediately learned the reason for Golden Dragon Star Lord's dissatisfaction.

"You mean to tell me that the six-level citizen I offended has actually been promoted to a seven-level citizen and become the fifty-seventh member of our Star Alliance's council?"

Jin Tianzhao widened his eyes in disbelief. While he had been wary of the possibility of Lin Yuan advancing to a seven-level citizen in the future, he hadn't expected it to happen so soon.

That's a seven-level citizen we're talking about, not some run-of-the-mill pedestrian! How did he manage to accumulate the two million merit points needed for promotion?

"That Shi Feng misled me! He claimed that 'Thirteen' couldn't be more than a thousand years old. It's all lies!" Jin Tianzhao was deeply resentful. Though he had a proud personality, he couldn't simply antagonize a seasoned six-level citizen.

Seasoned six-level citizens not only had stable social circles but, more importantly, you never knew how much experience and merit points they had accumulated.

At the time, Jin Tianzhao had found Lin Yuan unfamiliar and had assumed that he had just recently reached the six-level. He didn't seem to have much depth.

That's why his attitude had been slightly more aggressive. After all, a newly promoted six-level citizen wasn't much in front of the Golden Dragon Star Domain.

When he reported to Golden Dragon Star Lord, the latter hadn't paid much attention either. Who would have thought that this 'Thirteen' would turn out to be so low-key?

He was probably only a hair's breadth away from accumulating the two million merit points needed when he was threatened by Jin Tianzhao at the time.

But he hadn't said anything.

"Teacher, what should we do now?"

Jin Tianzhao asked hastily after a moment of silence. Pursuing accountability at this point was meaningless. What mattered was how to mend the relationship with that council member.

While Golden Dragon Star Lord was also a seven-level citizen, he wasn't foolish. He naturally didn't want to create unnecessary enemies on the same level.

"How much is that resource dead star worth?"

Golden Dragon Star Lord inquired. He was aware of the dispute between Moonwatch Star Domain and them and tacitly agreed. After all, Moonwatch Star Domain's strength, from any perspective, was far inferior to Golden Dragon Star Domain's.

"Teacher, if the resource dead star is fully exploited, it will probably yield valuable resources equivalent to eleven thousand universal crystals," Jin Tianzhao immediately replied.

"Give up the eleven thousand universal crystals directly and give them to Moonwatch Star Domain"

Golden Dragon Star Lord said directly after some thought. For the sake of a mere eleven thousand universal crystals, it wasn't worth antagonizing a seven-level citizen.

And whether Golden Dragon Star Domain could eventually take over this resource dead star was another matter altogether.

As long as Lin Yuan used the council member's veto power, the matter could be dragged on, giving Moonwatch Star Domain ample time for extensive mining. Ultimately, Golden Dragon Star Domain's profit would plummet.

In that case, it was better to give up proactively. It also showed goodwill towards that seven-level citizen.

"Give up. Okay" Jin Tianzhao said somewhat reluctantly.

Originally, according to the plan, Golden Dragon Star Domain would have received at least seventy percent of the revenue from that resource dead star, which would have been seven to eight thousand universal crystals.

Golden Dragon Star Lord might not care much about these universal crystals, but his disciples were quite envious.

"Also, prepare a gift and send it to that council member. The value of the gift should be around a thousand universal crystals."

"Remember, you will deliver the gift yourself, don't say too much, and don't do too much. Once the gift is delivered, come back" Golden Dragon Star Lord instructed.

"Do I need to apologize?" Jin Tianzhao asked cautiously.

"Just delivering the gift will do. Being too deliberate with an apology wouldn't be good," Golden Dragon Star Lord shook his head.

"Yes," Jin Tianzhao immediately responded.

Red Kun Main Star.

Inside the Thirteenth Peak Hall.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

"Spiritual Will Index."

Lin Yuan carefully read the document sent by his teacher, the Red Kun Star Lord.

The spiritual will of life is not necessarily related to one's own strength. Of course, the stronger the strength, the corresponding spiritual will also increases.

However, if the strength is not strong, the spiritual will may not necessarily be low. The spiritual will is related to one's own life experiences and insights.

Over the more than two million years in the starry sky, the researchers of human civilization in various universities of evolution, according to the specific cases of many seven and eight-rank evolvers over the generations, have divided the spiritual will into a range from one to ten thousand, namely the spiritual will index.

Only when the spiritual will index reaches ten thousand can there be a chance of crossing the 'Heart Demon Tribulation.'

Of course, it doesn't mean that if the spiritual will index is less than ten thousand, one cannot pass the 'Heart Demon Tribulation.' However, such cases are rare, and cannot be considered common.

"Spiritual Will Index."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Normally, for a newly advanced seventh-rank evolver, the spiritual will index would be one.

With continued cultivation and more experiences, the spiritual will index would gradually increase. Before deliberately training one's own spiritual will index, even a seventh-rank king-rank evolver's spiritual will index would at most be in the hundreds.

"Let's see what my spiritual will index is." Lin Yuan connected to the virtual world.

Since the concept of the spiritual will index was created, there naturally existed methods to measure it. Lin Yuan went to his personal space and directly applied to the Wisdom Goddess for a measurement of his own spiritual will index.

In a moment, Lin Yuan found himself in a spacious white room. All around was a vast expanse of white.

"Respected seventh-level citizen Lin Yuan, without using any physical or soul power, just rely on your own spiritual consciousness to impact the surroundings," came the solemn and cold voice of the Wisdom Goddess.

"Only using your own spiritual consciousness to impact the surroundings," Lin Yuan thought to himself.

Spiritual consciousness was also a form of attack. For example, if Lin Yuan stared at a sixth-rank evolver for a long time, even without activating any power, the other party would feel cold sweat and scalp tingling, unable to move.

This was the benefit of having a strong spiritual will.

"Begin." Lin Yuan closed his eyes.

His immense spiritual will began to surge in all directions. Invisible fluctuations swept out, enough to make any other fifth or sixth-rank evolver present kneel in fear.

After a moment, Lin Yuan stopped releasing his spiritual consciousness.

"What is my spiritual will index?" Lin Yuan opened his eyes and checked the results.

"Respected seventh-level citizen Lin Yuan, after testing, your current spiritual will index is approximately 7848."

"7848." Lin Yuan nodded slightly.

Normally, a seventh-rank king-rank evolver without specialized training for spiritual will would have a spiritual will index of only a few hundred. But Lin Yuan was clearly not a normal seventh-rank king-rank evolver.

Whether it was the vast internal world he had created, the derived power of the world, or the baptism of more than a thousand years experienced through six crossings between worlds, all of this had greatly enhanced Lin Yuan's spiritual will.

"Approaching a spiritual will index of ten thousand isn't too far away." Lin Yuan felt good. Having the exact number of his spiritual will index allowed Lin Yuan to breathe a sigh of relief. At least he had a goal to strive for.

In the virtual world, back in his personal space, after testing his own spiritual will index, Lin Yuan pondered how to train his spiritual will index.

The Human Civilization Alliance did have many methods for training spiritual consciousness, but they all required a lot of time and essentially relied on living long enough to improve spiritual will.

At this moment, Red-Nosed Shi Feng applied to enter. Lin Yuan chose to agree, and Shi Feng's figure appeared not far away, respectfully saying to Lin Yuan, "Thirteen, my lord."

"Hmm," Lin Yuan glanced at Red-Nosed Shi Feng casually and said.

"This is a congratulatory gift for Thirteen, my lord, becoming a seventh-level citizen," Red-Nosed Shi Feng said immediately.

"There's no need for such formality between us" Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

Since the alias appeared on the list of council members of the Star Alliance, Lin Yuan had received over ten thousand congratulatory gifts, mostly from various star domain forces of the Star Alliance.

There were also some seventh and eighth-rank evolvers. Generally, the value of a single congratulatory gift was around a hundred million universal coins. For a star domain-level force, they would give a congratulatory gift worth around a billion universal coins.

Just these congratulatory gifts alone had multiplied Lin Yuan's wealth several times over. A hundred million universal coins was roughly equivalent to one universal crystal. All the congratulatory gifts added together exceeded ten thousand universal crystals.

Lin Yuan had previously been overjoyed to receive one thousand universal crystals from the estate left by the eighth-rank evolver Ouyin. In the blink of an eye, just the value of the received congratulatory gifts alone was over ten thousand universal crystals.

"This is the status of a seventh-level citizen."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. Seventh-level citizens, although they don't have specific authority, hold high status. They enjoy significant privileges in certain important meetings.

The Star Alliance encompasses hundreds of star domains, and currently, there are only fifty-six living seventh-level citizen councilors, including Lin Yuan, who makes the fifty-seventh.

Every birth of a councilor is a major event in the entire Star Alliance. If Lin Yuan hadn't hidden his identity and only displayed a code, he would probably have received even more congratulatory gifts.

"My teacher also sent me a congratulatory gift," Lin Yuan seemed to recall something, his eyes showing a hint of amusement.

Not long ago, the Red Kun Star Domain also sent him a congratulatory gift worth ten universal crystals.

The Red Kun Star Lord is also a councilor of the Star Alliance, but the Red Kun Star Lord generally doesn't bother to attend the Star Alliance meetings. At his level, breaking through to the ninth rank is the most important concern.

"With this promotion to seventh-level citizen, aside from the benefits officially bestowed by human civilization, the total value of the gifts from others amounts to nearly twenty thousand universal crystals," Lin Yuan calculated.

Among these, the gift from the Moonwatch Star Domain was the largest. In addition to the original reward of three thousand universal crystals, upon learning that the Golden Dragon Star Domain voluntarily relinquished the resource dead star, the Moonwatch Star Lord sent another two thousand universal crystals as a congratulatory gift.

Taking into account the previous investments made to attract Lin Yuan's vote, the Moonwatch Star Domain has undoubtedly spent a fortune.

And then there's the Golden Dragon Star Domain, perhaps as a gesture of submission, which voluntarily sent a congratulatory gift worth a thousand universal crystals.

Altogether, the total value of all the gifts amounted to nineteen thousand eight hundred sixty-two universal crystals.

"The rate at which higher-level citizens accumulate wealth is too exaggerated," Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a slight sigh.

It's worth noting that all the universal crystals in the estate of the eighth-rank evolver Ouyin amounted to only a thousand. This clearly indicated the normal amount of 'liquid universal crystals' an eighth-rank evolver would have.

Of course, Ouyin was an eighth-rank evolver from many years ago. Nowadays, the eighth-rank evolvers of the Human Civilization Alliance are much wealthier, but the amount of universal crystals that an ordinary eighth-rank evolver can freely use definitely does not exceed five thousand.

Now, Lin Yuan has tens of thousands of universal crystals in his possession, including those he had accumulated previously, which can be considered quite wealthy even among eighth-rank evolvers.

"With these universal crystals, I can buy some universal treasures to supplement my internal world," Lin Yuan thought silently.

The internal world of an eighth-rank evolver, at first, is just a world shell that needs continuous improvement in rule comprehension, material treasures, and so on.

For example, a universal treasure called 'Quicksand Water' can be placed into the internal world to provide nourishment from the source of water to the operation of the internal world.

Deep within the Hall of Thirteenth Peak, Lin Yuan was just about to sense the changes in his internal world when he noticed that his senior brothers were returning to the Red Kun Main Star.

"Have the senior brothers returned?" Lin Yuan immediately got up, intending to visit his senior brothers.

Not long ago, the insect race, in order to attract the attention of human civilization, launched a series of activities targeting human evolvers on multiple alien battlefields. Many sixth, seventh, and even eighth-rank evolvers died in those cleanups.

Afterwards, when the Human Civilization Alliance reacted, they immediately mobilized many evolvers from various star domains to start settling accounts with the alien races on the battlefields.

The senior brothers, along with their respective armies of evolvers, went to the alien battlefields.

"Is the cleanup over?" Lin Yuan speculated, and soon met up with his senior brothers.

"Junior brother."

"Junior brother, you're here."

Seeing Lin Yuan, the twelve senior brothers all smiled.

"Junior brother."

The eldest senior brother looked at Lin Yuan and greeted him.

"Elder brother, you?" Lin Yuan carefully observed the eldest senior brother, his expression changing slightly.

With his keen perception, he faintly sensed that there was a cold aura emanating from the eldest senior brother, as if he had suffered some injury.

"It's worthy of our Junior brother."

"So quick to notice,"

"This time, on the alien battlefield, the eldest senior brother almost provoked an eighth-rank alien to make a move. Although nothing happened in the end, there were still some consequences."

"That eighth-rank alien specializes in soul attacks. Fortunately, the eldest senior brother has a soul defense treasure to protect himself, or it could have been disastrous."

The other senior brothers explained successively.

"Soul attack?"

Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly.

Soul attacks are mysterious and unpredictable. Even the eighth-rank evolver Ouyin fell victim to soul attacks.

Even Lin Yuan, who was vigilant about soul defenses, took them very seriously. Within the foundation of his refined Primordial Essence Gold, there was even included a defense against soul attacks.

"No worries, the teacher has already checked, and there's nothing wrong. I'll recover in a while," the eldest senior brother waved his hand and said.

...

Is he really okay?.-.
