In the Empire, there are several requirements to promote one's status.
The simplest way to do that was by donating!
Donating 100 million Skyriver Dollars to the Imperial Red Cross can get citizenship. Donating 1 billion Skyriver Dollars can get the status of a Knight.
However, the highest level of donation can be donated to a Knight. The title of Baron and above can't be obtained by donations alone.
In addition to donations, one has to make contributions to a certain industry, such as pharmacists, star shifters, adventurers, and so on. For example, adventurers can find civilized planets and resource planets and report them to the Empire. When the contribution accumulates to a certain extent, they can be promoted.
Another way is to go to the Dimensional Arena to fight.
The Dimensional Arena is also an institution that has been passed down for countless years and is very popular in the Empire.
Not only in the SkyRiver Empire, but also in any country. The Dimensional Arena is a very important way of leisure in people's lives.
People can bet through the Dimensional Arena. Countless people make a fortune here, and countless people lose and go bankrupt.
Lin Zhen's avatar is a Level 9 Comet, so he can participate in the Star Arena.
Fighting can earn money and points. If it's a slave, a 10-game winning streak can promote him to a pauper, and a 100-game winning streak can promote him to a citizen.
This promotion doesn't require donations, which makes many slaves and paupers scramble for it.
Of course, it's not easy to get a 10-game winning streak or a 100-game winning streak. Whenever a martial artist gets an 8-game winning streak, 9-game winning streak, or more than 90-game winning streak, the dealer will often arrange some masters to fight with him. Only a few people can successfully promote.
If you can achieve a thousand-game winning streak, you can be promoted to a Knight.
"Chris, I want to go to the Dimensional Arena."
"I'll connect you immediately. Connecting to the Dimensional Arena …"
The scenery in front of him changed, and Lin Zhen came to a huge arena.
The arena is circular, with a battleground in the center, surrounded by grandstands, and can accommodate millions of people at the same time.
Of course, it also includes some small arenas. For a newcomer like Lin Zhen, there is no way to directly enter the big stage. He has to start from the bottom.
Coming to the reception, Lin Zhen directly signed up. "I want to participate in the Dimensional Arena."
"Okay, I'll scan you …"
"Beep! Identity verification: Pauper Lin Zhen, from the Solar System, Level 9 Comet, Spirit Reader Master … "
"Solar system? This is the first time I've heard of this place, "the receptionist said.
"Yes, the Solar System has just been occupied by the Empire's army. I have also just joined the Empire."
"So that's how it is. Alright, I've already recorded your identity. After you pay a deposit of one million, you can participate in the qualifiers at any time. You'll be randomly matched against opponents in the Star Realm. You'll receive a prize of ten thousand Heavenly River Dollars for every match you win before your ten consecutive victories."
After the receptionist finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Zhen. "However, I still advise you not to place too much hope in the arena. I have seen too many young people like you who have just entered the Empire and are hoping to stand out in the arena. This place includes all the experts in the entire Milky Way. Their combat strength and standards are much stronger than your planet."
"Thank you, but I still want to try."
"Alright, if you can complete your ten consecutive victories, then you will receive the Medal of Bravery. At that time, you will receive a reward of one hundred thousand Heavenly River Dollars for every match you win. At that time, you will earn back your capital very quickly."
Lin Zhen took out his card and paid a deposit of one million.
"Alright, you can enter the arena at any time through the AI life form. There must be a ten-minute interval between each match. We have to give the customer time to place his bet. Remember, you cannot bet on yourself or your opponent to win."
Lin Zhen nodded. He did not need to walk into the arena. He only needed Chris to be in charge of the connection.
"Chris, start my first match immediately."
"Alright, I'll connect immediately."
Soon, the match list appeared in front of Lin Zhen's eyes.
This was his first competitive match. His opponent was Lin Zhen from the Solar System, a Level 9 Comet. He had zero battles, zero wins, zero defeats, and zero draws. These were the typical statistics of a newcomer.
On the other side was Landis from Andromeda, Level 8 Comet. Three matches, two wins, one loss, two consecutive victories.
Landis had lost his first match, but he had won two consecutive matches. His strength should be considered passable.
After the match list came out, some people who were looking at the list noticed this match.
"Look, a rookie has joined the battle. We have money to earn."
"Haha, this kind of battle is the best bet. The strength of most rookies is not worth mentioning, especially this Lin Zhen. He is from the Solar System. Where is the Solar System? How come I have never heard of him? He must be an aboriginal who has just joined. "
"Peripheral battles, the limit is one million. I will bet one million on Landis' victory."
"I will also bet five hundred thousand on Landis' victory. I will win some pocket money."
Those who placed bets here were basically idle citizens. They gambled in the arena every day and earned money based on their eyesight.
They could not afford to place large bets, but they could still gamble on peripheral battles like this.
It was rare for important people to come to peripheral battles like this. However, today, just as they were discussing heatedly, a group of people walked over.
"Make way, make way! The son of Prince Shangguan is here! "
Hearing this name, the surrounding people were scared and hurriedly dodged to the sides.
The royal family of the SkyRiver Empire is the Tian family, but there are also four princes with different surnames. Prince Shangguan is one of them.
Prince Shangguan's son's name was Shangguan Jiao. It was said that he was raised as a girl. Later, the Prince disliked the name and changed it to Shangguan Jiao. He even said that the name was strong and spicy enough, which made the old Prince very angry.
Shangguan Jiao is a relative of the royal family. Naturally, he is not someone ordinary people can provoke. Offending him is a capital offense.
Several level 9 satellite guards separated the crowd, and a handsome young man appeared. However, his eyes were rolling around, glancing at women from time to time.
"Prince, if we want to bet, we should go to the main arena. Why did we come to this place? The maximum limit here is one million."
"What do you know? I had a dream yesterday. I dreamt that a benefactor would appear here today. I like this kind of unconventional method. If I win the preliminary round, I'll follow him. Who knows, I might really be able to make a fortune."
"Then you should find someone to bet on. You have already bet on more than a hundred peripheral arenas."
"What's the hurry? I don't want to bet on those ugly bastards. I want to bet on a handsome one. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of this handsome prince?"
Shangguan Jiao said. Suddenly, he saw the match between Lin Zhen and Landis.
"Huh! This one is okay, he looks very pleasing to the eye. Come on, let's bet one million on him. I feel it. "
"Prince, this is a newcomer. He hasn't played a single match yet. Should we watch again? It's okay to observe him. "
"Don't talk so much. Are you the master or am I the master? So what if I win or lose? I like to follow my feelings. "
The guard who has reached the level 7 star realm smiled helplessly. He helped Shangguan Jiao bet one million on Lin Zhen's victory.
After a while, more than 300 people have placed their bets. Most of them bet on Landis. The total amount is more than 100 million.
There are only a few dozen people who bet on Lin Zhen, and the total amount is a few million.
This proved that a newcomer like Lin Zhen wasn't thought highly of.
Ten minutes later, a white light flashed and Lin Zhen entered the arena.
The arena wasn't big. There were a few thousand spectator seats around. All the people who had placed their bets automatically appeared in the stands to enjoy this battle.
Shangguan Jiao sat in the best seat with many guards around him. Although he wouldn't really die if he was killed in the Dimensional Universe, he couldn't afford to lose face. Getting beaten up in the Dimensional Universe was also a form of enmity.
The Bauhinia Aristocrat Medal on him also made ordinary people not dare to approach him. The Bauhinia Aristocrat Medal was the emblem of the Shangguan Family.
The two combatants appeared in the arena. Opposite Lin Zhen, a person with purple pupils appeared. It was his opponent, Landis.
Landis glanced at Lin Zhen and sneered. "This is the first time I've seen a race with black eyes and black hair. A newcomer who hasn't fought a single battle. Welcome to the Dimensional Arena. I will teach you a good lesson today."
Lin Zhen looked around and saw the Crown Prince sitting in the stands.
He didn't expect that the Crown Prince would actually come to watch such a battle.
"This guy seems to be called Shangguan Jiao. I know him from my previous life. He's a famous noble in the Empire. Although he looks wretched, he's actually a good person. He likes to watch violent gladiators and has even made friends with many gladiators."
Lin Zhen was able to understand the betting situation through Kris. This Shangguan Jiao actually bet a million on him to win.
"If I can make friends with such a person, it will be very beneficial for my future plans. In that case, I will have to end this battle quickly and let him see my potential."
Lin Zhen could defeat Landis with a mental attack, but he didn't intend to do so. If he was going to fight, he wanted to make it as shocking as possible.
On the other side, Landis had already taken out a longsword and was rushing over like an arrow.
Lin Zhen raised his hand and the Edge Spear appeared in his hand.
A ball of energy appeared and quickly sank into the spear.
The astral power around him was released to the maximum, and Lightning Kill was brewing on the spear.
The Lightning Wings flapped behind him and instantly accelerated to the maximum, propelling Lin Zhen's body towards Landis like a cannonball!
Lightning power bloomed on the tip of the spear, astral power fluctuated, and Lightning Kill exploded. Under the support of Unstoppable, it actually tore a long space crack!
"Damn! This kid is fierce! "
Shangguan Jiao immediately became excited, and his whole body stood up from his seat.
"Bang!"
Under the impact of the Lightning Wings' speed of ten times the speed of sound, Landis couldn't dodge Lin Zhen's fierce charge at all. The two collided head on!
The elemental energy exploded like a bomb, shaking the virtual arena violently. Landis's entire body was destroyed by Lin Zhen's powerful attack!
It wasn't a kill, it was a destroy. Landis was beaten into a bloody pulp that floated down from the arena.
Lin Zhen put away his spear and lightly spat out two words, "Trash!"
