Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

In no time, Hong Dali had cut out two energy gems. After enhancing them with magic, they were embedded into the two inlets of the Bright Silver Armor. And it was completed!

“Aiyaya, speaking of which, this universe is really amazing,” Hong Dali exclaimed. “Previously, these attribute gems could only be embedded in perfect-grade items. In the universe, with magical metals, they can be embedded in weapons or armors. Not bad, not bad. I shall give this armor to Heartbreaker. He already seems like a magician. This should be useful to him.”

En, Lucifer’s first equipment was created. Three energy gems with a total of 150% increase. If he cursed once more, wahahahahaha!

Everything was done. He kept the armor, satisfied. Hong Dali was ready to go to bed when, suddenly, the System sounded—

“In order to cope with the challenges in the universe, the Host understands the guardian’s righteousness. A hidden task is triggered.”

“Hidden Task (First level): For companions. Mission explanation: In order to protect his companions, the Host decides to strengthen himself. Mission Requirement: Attribute arms, companions’ attributes increased to three hundred, or energy increased to 500. Mission Reward: Second Gear. Second Gear explanation: increase all attributes to 1000%, lasts for thirty minutes. Additional explanation: Active controllable skills. Health attributes that were consumed can be supplemented by attribute points earned from squandering.”

Damn, a hidden task like that appeared!

Second Gear!

Hahahaha! I can actually have such a powerful skill! All attributes increased to 1000%. With my initial attributes of 100 for all, 1000% means 1000 for all attributes!

Just that I’m not sure how the Health attribute points can be redeemed. But with the System’s nature of taking advantage of me…

Alright. Anyway, the thing I have most of is money, it doesn’t matter…

It seemed the Tower of Trials has some good items. I’ll go take a look tomorrow, hehe!

I can sleep in peace!

…

Jiang Family Estate.

After Jiang Qianxue returned to her estate, the first thing she did was to look for a guard and instruct him. “Inform the rest, Hong Dali has become an orange level honorary aristocrat. Make all the necessary arrangements required. Oh yes, register his planet for him, the location is 1584748, 1254782, 1698441. He should get everything an orange level honorary aristocrat gets. Send him all those.”

“Yes!” The guard bowed at Jiang Qianxue and quickly left.

Becoming an honorary aristocrat, his home planet would be treated differently.

The lowest level, red honorary aristocrat, including resources, minerals, spaceships and other things that were useful in the universe, total value of 100 million Galaxy Dollars.

Orange-level honorary aristocrat, total value of 200 million Galaxy Dollars.

Yellow-level, 400 million! Green-level, 800 million! Silver-level, 1.6 billion! Blue-level, 3.2 billion! Purple-level, 6.4 billion! The highest level, black, total value of 12.8 billion. No discount on that. It could only be more, not less!

Among these things, including various grades of motherships, various expensive metals in the universe, various advanced technology, such as High-energy Electronic Collision Machine production drawings, Space Oscillation technology, and so on!

And it was because of these things that any openings for honorary aristocrats were highly sought after!

Several honorary aristocrats were willing to go all out to level up! Just advancing one level would gain them twice the amount of benefits!

An ordinary spaceship for personal use was only five thousand Galaxy Dollars. But when honorary aristocrats advanced by one level, there was a reward of hundreds of thousands, even billions. Who wouldn’t be tempted? Who could be indifferent?

That was just physical rewards.

If they could increase by one level, the impact would be over the top!

…

Soon, all the honorary aristocrats under the Jiang Family knew of Hong Dali, who went through the backdoor and became an orange-level honorary aristocrat.

Shenluo City, inside a large gym.

The name of this gym was Soaring Dragon Gymnasium. It covered an area of 40,000 square meters. There were all kinds of training equipment suited for Fifth Order Planet Warriors. Many Second Order Planet Warriors chose to train and exchange pointers here as well—of course, it was said to be many, but there was in fact only twenty to thirty people. These warriors were all honorary aristocrats under the Jiang Family!

There were no outsiders.

Which meant, this Soaring Dragon Gymnasium was only open to honorary aristocrats under the Jiang Family.

“Young Master.” A guard escort walked hurriedly towards a young man who was training with a holographic projection of a warrior. He said respectfully, “We have the latest news from the Lord. A young man named Hong Dali was made an orange-level honorary aristocrat through the backdoor.” The young man was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, about 1.85 meters tall, and his body was extremely well-proportioned. Holding a weapon similar to a lightsaber in Star Wars, he looked really impressive.

Hung beside him was an honorary aristocrat cloak, in red! The characters on it were—

Aristocrat. Feiyun!

“En? He didn’t go through the usual process?” Young Master Feiyun put down the lightsaber he was holding and frowned. He said slowly, “Special relations? Seems troublesome.”

The guard bowed respectfully, not daring to say a word.

“It seems we have one more competitor.” At that moment, another Red-level honorary aristocrat who had been watching Feiyun train smiled and said, “Special relations, hard to handle.” This man was about 1.9 meters tall, had brown skin, and strong muscles. His face was sharp and angular, and he was also a Red-level honorary aristocrat, Aristocrat.Yi Tie.

“En, I wonder how he is related.” Young Master Feiyun thought for a while and asked the guard, “Did you hear how he became an honorary aristocrat?”

“The news was very strictly blocked. I didn’t manage to find out more.” The guard thought carefully and said, “But according to rumors, this Hong Dali seems to be closely connected to the Lord. Hence, he was made an honorary aristocrat. But as to who he is closely connected to, I didn’t dare to probe further.”

“En, okay. I understand. Try to find out more. See where this Hong Dali usually hangs around. Tomorrow I will pay him a visit with Big Brother Yi Tie.” Young Master Feiyun then waved his hand and said, “Go along.”

“Okay.”

When the guard left, Feiyun put on the exclusive cloak for honorary aristocrats and sat beside Yi Tie, asking, “Big Brother Yi Tie, what do you think about Hong Dali?”

“The annual assessment for honorary aristocrats is coming soon. This Hong Dali came in at this time. He would probably take up a quota of orange-level honorary aristocrats.” Yi Tie touched his chin and said slowly, “There are only a total of thirty-two places for orange-level honorary aristocrats, but there are 512 red-level honorary aristocrats! Now that Hong Dali has used up one quota, the pressure of the competition has suddenly increased by a lot.”

Honorary aristocrats annual assessment. Five hundred and twelve red-level honorary aristocrats would participate in the assessment every year, with thirty-two becoming orange-level honorary aristocrats.

Twenty-six orange-level honorary aristocrats participated in the assessment, with sixteen becoming yellow-level honorary aristocrats!

Moving up, one-hundred-and-twenty-eight yellow-level, eight selected!

Sixty-four green-level, four selected!

Thirty-two gray-level, two selected!

Sixteen blue-level, one selected!

As for purple-level honorary aristocrats, capability was not enough for them to advance to the highest black-level honorary aristocrats. They had to participate in other trials. For example, survive in a planet full of ferocious beasts for one month, before they could become the highest black-level honorary aristocrat!

“That’s right.” Young Master Feiyun nodded. “According to the advancement rules every year, the pressure of competition is already big. Now that one quota has been used up, it will be tough. Oh right,” Speaking up to this point, he suddenly asked, “I remember we have one more advancement rule where one can challenge an honorary aristocrat of a higher level. If they succeed, they can advance directly. Am I right?”

“That’s right.” Yi Tie smiled and said, “That’s what I was thinking. Let’s pay Hong Dali a visit tomorrow and test out his capability. If he’s really so powerful, we will give up. If he’s not that powerful and has become an honorary aristocrat solely based on relations, we will challenge him during the assessment. Even the Lord will not be able to say anything. As long as it’s within the rules, it will be no problem.”

“En, okay! We shall do that!”

…

In the Yin Family Manor.

“I’m back!” Yin Tianzong returned from the Brent Revolving Restaurant happily. Once he entered the doors, he asked, “Where is Father? Is he back?”

“Master is not bad yet,” the guard replied respectfully. “Young Master, you’re looking for Master?”

“En, a small matter.” Yin Tianzong nodded. “Let me know when he returns.”

“Okay.”

…

Brent Revolving Restaurant, Private Room Number 8888.

Yin Lieyang and Jiang Duxing leaned on the soft sofa, and Yin Liyang gently sipped a glass of wine. “Duxing ah, this Hong Dali is really quite interesting. Gifting a gemstone with 50% increase just like that. Even we wouldn’t be able to do something so extravagant, right? This Hong Dali, where is he from?”

“I have also just heard from my Qianxue.” Jiang Duxing smiled. “Acknowledging our Saiyan clan Mo Tianji as a predecessor, able to control lightning and wind, he can be considered a warrior. As for the rest, I’m not too sure. After all, it’s not been long. It’ll take some time to investigate. Speaking of which, he became friends with your Tianzong so quickly, that’s interesting.”

Hong Dali and Yin Tianzong got acquainted through fighting. Though when they fought, Tianzong was the one suffering all the punches, they indeed became friends very quickly…
