Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

Chapter 553: Chapter 414: Breakthrough to the Seventh Stage! Chapter 553: Chapter 414: Breakthrough to the Seventh Stage! This discovery greatly exhilarated Shen Hao.

Ever since he acquired the cheat, he constantly pondered when he could also create a cheat of his own.

After all, the cheat system wasn’t some unfathomable entity; its origins had been clear from the beginning, stemming from the same Trial Civilizations.

If they could do it, Human Civilization, aspiring to one day break through the constraints of the Civilization Trial, could achieve it too.

It was by no means an unimaginable or unreachable goal.

And now, he had finally touched upon such a Domain.

Even if it was just an insignificant trace, it was still a significant breakthrough from nothing to something!

Of course, Shen Hao was well aware that even if he truly could design a brand new cheat, even one that could be used with the current version rather than past versions, it didn’t mean that he would have a chance against the Civilization Trial System.

After all, many civilizations that created cheats were still destroyed.

He could only say that the distance from the ultimate goal was still vast, so vast that at present, he had only taken a minuscule step forward.

“I must keep striving,” Shen Hao firmly etched this moment of destiny’s shift into his memory and fully immersed himself in it.

He was only one step away from the Seventh Stage, and that step clearly lay within the realm of the Law of Destiny.

As one of the indispensable foundational Extraordinary Rules of the Extraordinary World, the Law of Destiny indeed was the last barrier before the Seventh Stage.

Meanwhile, Qiao Yu’s life, after obtaining the identity of Chosen One, welcomed a tremendous change!

Just the day before, Qiao Yu was disheartened by his achieved ranking, and not just him but also his family; the entire family atmosphere seemed to have shifted.

After all, they had indeed made many sacrifices for this opportunity.

However, when true failure came, no one blamed him, including his brother who had occasionally voiced criticisms in the past, now silent.

Because everyone knew that Qiao Yu was the most heartbroken one.

As someone who clearly knew how much he had devoted, in spite of their own distress and pity, they couldn’t bring themselves to blame him in his current state.

Qiao Yu locked himself in his room for a day and a night.

In the end, however, he adjusted his mindset and stepped out of the room.

“I must continue to try!” Qiao Yu said to his parents, his expression extremely serious, “From now on, I won’t need additional support from home. All consequences, all expenses, will be my own to bear. I cannot drag the family down any longer, but I will never give up!”

Indeed, Qiao Yu was not prepared to give up.

And his father, after opening his mouth several times and then falling silent, finally nodded without a word.

Although Mr. Qiao also wanted to continue supporting his child, he understood that they couldn’t risk everything the family had for such an opportunity.

One year of support was enough.

The rest of the journey was for the child to walk on his own.

Everything seemed to return to normalcy, just like countless other ordinary families.

But—

For a moment, he even doubted whether it was just a hallucination, then quickly followed the special self-check method to assess his spiritual state.

This kind of assessment had become an Extraordinary Means that every citizen of Civilization had to master, and even many schools made it the first Extraordinary Technique taught to new students.

After all, many previous Trials involved trials that could interfere with the spirit.

The result of the assessment showed no problems! No illusions!

He had truly succeeded!

After this news was conveyed, the entire family felt it was incredible, but a great cheer soon spread, even to the point that the Formation around their house couldn’t suppress it!

Success.

Their family had produced a Chosen One, something that only happened once in about twenty to thirty thousand people!

Even if it was just the most basic White Talent, in this moment, it exceeded that of most people, not to mention his peers.

When the news spread, all the neighbors and even the entire neighborhood were in awe and extended their congratulations.

And, of course, envy wasn’t far behind.

This was a Chosen One, equivalent to a symbol of status in today’s society!

“The school has also sent their congratulations,” Qiao Yu quickly regained his composure from the excitement, promptly getting to work on follow-up matters, “I need to go to the Chosen One Association to register. Although it’s just a White Talent, there are points I can claim every month. Our family’s circumstances will only get better, and if you guys still want to have more brothers and sisters, I can provide some family funds…”

In today’s Human Civilization, all Chosen Ones could draw a set of points from the Chosen One Association.

Based on their respective Levels, Talents as Chosen Ones, and other performances to decide.

It was an important part of the Chosen One training system.

Even if Qiao Yu only possessed a White Talent and his Extraordinary Level was still at Level 6, the points he would receive already compared favorably to his father’s job!

This was one of the statuses of a Chosen One.

Being a primary support target, with a higher status and treatment, it also meant contributing more to Human Civilization.
