Chapter 360 First Come, First Served
While Earth was shrouded in gloom and despair, the alien spectators watching the civilization trial were indulging in revelry.

Number 11839 could not hide his excitement, his voice trembling: "Blue Star is rich in geological resources, mainly divided into three categories: energy minerals, mainly coal, oil and natural gas; metal resources, mainly iron, copper and gold; and non-metal resources, mainly groundwater and salt. However, their distribution is uneven, and the specific distribution information is as follows."

Each audience member will see a small blue ball appear in front of them, and clicking on any point will bring up a corresponding resource distribution table.

Of course, none of that matters; what they value most is another resource.

Carbon-based humanoid creatures!

There are approximately 80 billion carbon-based humanoid beings on the entire planet Earth. Asia accounts for about 60% of the global population, nearly 48 billion, of which China and the Great Elephant Country each have a population of over 14 billion.

"What a pity, the Elephant Country got incredibly lucky. Their contestant was randomly pushed through a door by the chaotic crowd, and it turned out to be the right door."

"Alas, what's even more regrettable is China! Their race, with yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes, is the most popular carbon-based humanoid species! Number 11839, couldn't you think of another way?"

Number 11839 rolled his eyes. He was a Star Alliance Observer, and his every move was being monitored.

He had already increased the difficulty for China within his authority, but who would have thought that one of the young women actually possessed mental power? Although she wasn't good at using it, she had it nonetheless! This alone was enough for her to successfully pass the first level.

"Alright, let's get down to business. Auction priority! Lithuania, population 286 million, who wants it?"

The alien audience below were doing some quick calculations. How much material resources and technology could be gained from 286 million carbon-based humanoid beings, after accounting for losses during the journey?
The solar system is too far from the Covenant Alliance for a trip worth 286 million. But are there any exploration teams near the Milky Way?
After contacting everyone, a spiritual civilization ultimately won the bid for priority.

They happen to have an exploration team not far from the Milky Way, so they can do this deal.

Priority rights for each region were auctioned off, culminating in the biggest reward from the first qualifying round.

"The Philippines has a population of 1.6 million, with yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes. Although they are not the purest Chinese race, according to genetic mapping tests, their ancestors and the ancestors of the Chinese people had reproductive behavior."

"According to our calculations, the number of citizens with Chinese ancestry in this region exceeds one million."

"Buying it is a sure win! And geographically speaking, they are located in Southeast Asia, which is very close to China."

This looks so tempting.

Its priority right to occupy the land has driven prices up steadily, eventually reaching their peak.

According to Star Alliance rules, once the highest price is reached in the trading arena, the bidders must negotiate with each other.

The Star Alliance's original intention was to avoid wasting resources due to infighting and hoped that all parties would engage in friendly negotiations.

But in practice, it becomes a fistfight, and only the strongest has the right to speak.

In the Star Alliance's exclusive arena galaxy, the spaceships were engaged in a fierce battle, ping-pong and pong.

A heavily armed, dark spaceship, resembling a weapon fortress, grazed the edge of the galaxy.

The ships that detected the dark spaceship all moved away from it without prior agreement.

Inside the spaceship, Yi Jian was handling internal affairs: "Uncle Lao Hei, the report shows that your resource consumption has skyrocketed recently. Is there some problem?"

Old Black frowned and waved his hand: "The evolution of Weasley and others has hit a bottleneck, and they have been unable to break through it. Combining this with what the Lord said about the gene lock, I suspect that they have all touched the first layer of the gene lock."

Yi Jian nodded solemnly: "This is important. I will move your experiment to the Arbiter's first-level sequence." "Okay, thank you."

Yi Jian went to the core room to visit Xiao Hei, who was almost integrated with the entire Arbiter. Xiao Hei had been in a deep sleep ever since the Lord disappeared with the black hole singularity.

"Little Black, we will definitely find the Lord!"

The door to the core room opened again, and a burly man exuding a murderous aura walked in: "Oh? Yi Jian, you're here too. How did your macroscopic and microscopic theories fare last time? Is it really possible that the Venerable One has entered the microscopic world? How can we find her and make contact with her?"

Yi Jian's eyebrows furrowed like a caterpillar: "Uncle Thunderbolt, entering the microscopic world requires a huge amount of energy. The energy inside our Arbiter is insufficient to conduct further experiments."

Thunderbolt gave an "oh," as he didn't quite understand that kind of knowledge: "Where are we going next?"

"Hardy's advance ship has discovered a collapsing black hole. We plan to observe the entire process, and if conditions are right, conduct microscopic experiments there."

Thunderbolt had no objections. The Arbiter continued its journey.

As they passed the spaceships still locked in combat, Thunderbolt raised an eyebrow: "It seems this civilization trial has yielded remarkable results, provoking these interstellar civilization caravans to engage in a fierce battle. Yi Jian, shall we go take a look and join the fun?"

Yi Jian was somewhat tempted, but the urgency to find the Lord weighed heavily on his heart.

He shook his head: "Never mind, finding the Lord is the priority."

"it is good."

The Arbiter drove out of the Covenant core and headed headlong into the lonely, distant star system.

……

Meanwhile, on Earth, [Your father is still your father] started a live stream, his tone unusually somber.

"To our fellow countrymen around the world, on the first day of the qualifiers, a total of 160 participating teams were eliminated, with an elimination rate as high as 82%."

"This is a difficult and ruthless selection process. We don't know what the selection criteria are, or what the consequences will be if we are not selected, but I still maintain that humanity on Earth is a community. As long as we are united, we will definitely be able to find a way to survive!"

After pausing for a few seconds, he continued in a slightly more relaxed tone: "Now for some good news, our seeded players have successfully passed the first round. The players from the United States, Russia, the European Union, and China have clearly found some kind of pattern, and I believe they will definitely be able to continue smoothly."

"The athletes from the Elephant Country are very lucky. May good luck always be with you."

"With the help of Lu Shimeng, a contestant from China, the Iron Country and the Camel Country successfully passed the test."

"The cherry blossom country and the kimchi country adopted a strategy of spreading out their forces and successfully guessed the answer."

"Thanks to Abuja's persistence, the Maple Leaf Country has a fruitful harvest."

Some passed the test through their own abilities, some through luck, and some through sheer luck—each using their own unique methods.

Just as the atmosphere in the live broadcast room eased, a yellow-green speck of light, like a shooting star, fell from the colorful sky above the Pacific Ocean, streaked across the atmosphere, precisely located Lithuania, and enveloped the entire country in a beam of yellow-green light.

This action was like flipping a switch; the shimmering spots on the ocean resembled a meteor shower, scattering across the world.
