Chapter 358 Falling into a box
Under Western control of discourse, many issues are not discussed, such as the indigenous peoples' issue.

In the United States and Canada, not only have they used war, deceptive treaties, forced relocation, and legal means to deprive indigenous people of the land they have lived on and the resources they depend on for survival, but they have also attempted to systematically destroy the culture, language, and identity of indigenous people.

For example, they would forcibly take Indigenous children from their families and send them to boarding schools, where they were forbidden from using their own language, customs, and beliefs, and were not allowed to perform traditional rituals, prayers, or gatherings.

In the United States, Indigenous people did not gain citizenship and enjoy basic civil and political rights until 1924.

These indigenous people, who were once persecuted, are now among the contestants, representing their country in the competition.

Many politicians turned green with envy.

"How can they represent us? How can we put our fate in their hands?"

“This is an insult to us!”

In response, the phrase "Your father is still your father" silenced them with just one sentence.

“Aliens see us the way you see the indigenous people. You see the indigenous people as ants, and aliens see us as cosmic dust.”

[Your father is still your father] He sighed almost imperceptibly. Even if the blue planet were to be destroyed in the next second, humanity still couldn't unite and work together as one.

Why is this? Is this simply the worst aspect of human nature?
The high and mighty testing grounds of civilization don't care what the humans of Earth think.

After all the seats, including number 11839, were sold out, the rules for the qualifying round were announced.

The qualifying round is a survival-based event. Of the 10 participants, only one must survive for seven days to advance to the next round.

According to Article 13,054 of the Third Universe Star Alliance Regulations, the qualifying rounds must guarantee fairness, impartiality, and transparency; the examination content will be standardized across all 193 sub-venues.

[Countdown: 10, 9, ...]

The alien spectators watching the qualifiers scoffed dismissively.

"This is so annoying. These rules are unnecessary. Civilizations that are below level one shouldn't have a newbie protection period at all."

"Oh my god, you guys have no idea how stupid Earth is. They actually held up megaphones and shouted throughout the entire universe, 'Hey, I'm here, is anyone there?'"

"What utterly naive foolishness. If it weren't for the intense nature of the divine war and the growing strength of the Star Alliance, this little blue planet would have been destroyed long ago."

"Shh... Keep your voice down, those lunatics haven't left yet. You've probably forgotten, they're the ones who proposed Article 13054!"

"Ahem, yes, that's true. It's really strange that they proposed this regulation but didn't even watch the Civilization Trial. What are they after?"

"Perhaps it's because he's kind-hearted?"

A knowing laugh rippled through the room.

Haha, which of the star civilizations that have successfully joined the Star Alliance is an easy target?
Kindness? That's the most useless thing, a devil fruit that can drag an entire civilization into the abyss.

It's alright. Article 13,054 can only temporarily slow down their pace of swallowing up weaker civilizations; it won't change the final outcome.

……

Lu Shimeng was momentarily stunned, only to find herself pulled into a huge elliptical space.

The whole space was a mess, filled with the incessant chirping of birds.

"Chinese players, gather around me!" Lu Shimeng shouted, raising her hand.

The familiar gestures and tone made the black-haired teenager nearby light up and quickly take the food.

"Li Tianhao, 15 years old, a first-year student at Tianqi High School, reporting for duty!"

Lu Shimeng nodded to him and waited for a while longer. Finally, five elderly people with white hair arrived, along with three babies sucking their fingers in their arms. Lu Shimeng's mind went blank, and she gasped.

The beginning of the collapse of heaven!
The five elderly people bowed their heads deeply.

They are neither top national scientists nor powerful business tycoons.

They are just ordinary retired elderly people who worked in ordinary jobs for decades, and then retired step by step to help take care of their grandchildren.

One of the grandmothers, with a kind face, said with shame, "We have caused trouble for the country."

Sigh, I lived an ordinary life, but in my old age, I was chosen to be a contestant.

The thought of failing the competition made her heart tremble.

Lu Shimeng glanced at the frightened elderly people and the bewildered children, then looked at Li Tianhao, who was on the verge of tears, and said firmly.

"From now on, you will all follow my instructions. I am a member of the first class of students at the Central First Agricultural School of Blue Star. I received personal instruction from Principal Lin Xiaohe. I not only have rich practical experience, but I have also taught two classes of freshmen."

Lin Xiaohe?
The elderly people suddenly looked up, their eyes sparkling with hope, and asked, "Is it Lin Xiaohe, the one who appears on the news every day?"

Lu Shimeng straightened her chest, slightly raised her chin, and said proudly, "That's right, it's her. We, the first batch of freshmen, are different from others. We were all personally selected and trained by the principal!"

Everyone looked at Lu Shimeng with admiration.

"Wow, this little girl is really amazing. This match depends on you."

Li Tianhao was so excited he was almost incoherent: "Are we in the bag this time? Can you carry us to victory?"

Lu Shimeng thumped her chest loudly: "It's a sure thing! I can definitely lead you guys to success. Even if I can't, our principal definitely can!"

Li Tianhao's mouth gaped into a big "O" shape as he asked incredulously, "Principal Lin Xiaohe can come and go from the competition venue at will?"

Lu Shimeng's expression froze. Oh no, she had bluffed too much and almost let it all slip.

She glanced at the expectant eyes of the crowd, made up her mind, and decided to go all out on her boast in order to boost the morale of the participants!

"Of course! Don't you guys think the establishment of the First Central Agricultural School on Earth was quite sudden?"

Li Tianhao nodded frantically like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yeah, it's strange. Back then, it was all over the internet. People thought the school was a knock-off."

Lu Shimeng lied, "Can a country be easily fooled? It's because the principal knew long ago that aliens were going to attack Earth, so he worked with the country to prepare."

"So that's how it is!" everyone exclaimed in realization.
The principal is awesome, the country is awesome, China is secure.

Lu Shimeng managed to fool everyone, secretly wiping away her sweat.

Just then, the aliens issued their first mission: "Leave the venue within ten minutes."

The oval-shaped venue suddenly had more than 100 doors, without any signs.

Such a simple task, yet not a single person dared to make a move.

Three minutes later, a team from an unknown country, steeling themselves, randomly chose the door closest to them and, with expressions of resignation, went inside.

The entire process proceeded without any obstacles or unexpected incidents.

Ten people walked through the door smoothly and without any problems.

Just as the contestants breathed a sigh of relief and decided to follow suit, the relentless announcement rang out throughout the venue.

Lithuania is out!
