Chapter 26

As the capital of Huaxia, the Imperial City is indeed prosperous, but this does not mean that the entire city is filled with skyscrapers, neat roads, and streets. There are also dilapidated urban villages.

Li Wuching rented a place in an urban village between the sixth and seventh ring roads. Although the environment here is relatively poor, the rent is cheap, and those good places are not something Li Wuching can afford.

This urban village is precisely in the North District of the five districts that have been divided. The power of the Main God's divine essence can only cover the North District.

The criteria for the Main God's divine essence to select trainees are, first, a strong will and a love for adventure; second, age, personality, and other factors are also certain standards.

With computational capabilities comparable to those of a super-large computer, the Main God's divine essence mainly considers from a rational perspective how to benefit its own development, the recovery of its strength, and Li Wuching's growth.

However, it also takes into account Li Wuching's thoughts, which is why it asked if there were any additional screening criteria.

"Little God, among the selected trainees, some must have good economic conditions. I urgently need to change my real-life situation," Li Wuching requested.

Based on Li Wuching's suggestions, the main city established its own network and trading system, divided into the Main God's system store and a free trading platform.

The Main God's divine essence replied, "Alright."

Then, the selection began. A light screen extended from the suspended sphere, displaying various bright and dim points.

"Main God, these light points indicate a person's soul strength. The brighter the light point, the stronger the person's soul," the Main God's divine essence explained.

Li Wuching asked in confusion, "Little God, does a stronger soul mean a person will be more powerful, have a firmer will, and remain calmer in dangerous situations?"

The Main God's divine essence answered, "Partly, but not entirely. A strong soul might mean a person has a deep spiritual nature or rich life experiences."

Although a strong soul does not necessarily mean a person is absolutely powerful, the probability is higher, so the Main God's divine essence first selects these people.

With a shake of the light screen, all the weak light points were eliminated, leaving only a hundred particularly bright points.

"Main God, you can make your selection now," the Main God's divine essence said.

"Let you choose. Afterward, I'll take a general look at the data," Li Wuching said after glancing at the light screen.

Although there were only a hundred light points, the actual selection process was still a bit overwhelming, so Li Wuching let the Main God's divine essence handle the selection.

"Alright."

The Main God's divine essence agreed, and the light screen shook again, reducing the number of light points to ten, the ten brightest and most dazzling.

"Let me take a look at this person."

Li Wuching pointed to the brightest of the ten light points.

The light point Li Wuching pointed to instantly zoomed in and enlarged, and an image of a person appeared before Li Wuching's eyes.

This was a tall, muscular middle-aged man with a hard face and a fierce gaze. Under one eyebrow, there was a faint scar.

At first glance, Li Wuching felt that this person was indeed tough, with a lot of street smarts and a menacing aura.

After checking the person's data, Li Wuching learned that his name was Liu Hongjun. He had once been a member of Huaxia's special forces and, after retiring, joined a gang, managing a branch of the Green Dragon Gang, which was the most combat-effective member of the gang.

"Good choice, Little God. Such a person will surely do well in the Main God's space," Li Wuching thought to himself and then clicked on another light point.

Li Wuching separately understood the ten light points. Besides Liu Hongjun, Zhao Dingkun and Fan Qi left a deep impression on him.

Zhao Dingkun was a big boss of a real estate company with a considerable scale and assets worth hundreds of millions. Even in the Imperial City, it was a significant company.

Zhao Dingkun did not rely on connections to rise to his position but started from the bottom and worked his way up through difficult steps, using both legal and illegal means to achieve success.

However, the reason Li Wuching was deeply impressed by Zhao Dingkun was that he had a lot of money. Li Wuching couldn't help but think about whether he could get some of it.

Fan Qi was a woman and also a company boss. Although her company was not as large as Zhao Dingkun's real estate company, it still had assets worth tens of millions.

Fan Qi came from a single-parent family and grew up with her mother, developing a strong character. She started her business while in college.

For a woman to survive and grow her company in the fiercely competitive business world, the difficulties she faced were unimaginable.

The other seven people also left some impressions on Li Wuching. They had achieved some success in their respective fields and could be considered social elites.

"Very good, Little God, send me back. When I return, it will be time to open the next world," Li Wuching said to the Main God's divine essence after understanding everything.

"Alright."

In a burst of light, Li Wuching's figure disappeared from the Main God's space.

...

Getting up from the old bed in his small rental room, Li Wuching's face was filled with surprise and excitement, thinking about everything in the Main God's space, he was incredibly thrilled.

Li Wuching wanted to let out a long, loud cry to vent his excitement but ultimately controlled himself, pacing around the room a few times to suppress his excitement.

It's like a common person suddenly finding a pie falling from the sky, with five million dollars landing on their head. They would be ecstatic, let alone the Main God's space, which is far more valuable than five million dollars.

"Right, I should quit my job," Li Wuching decided.

Although the time flow in the Main God's space is much slower compared to the outside world, with one month roughly equivalent to one day, and the time span in the projection space even greater, one day outside can be used as a year inside.

However, Li Wuching still decided to quit his job and focus entirely on the Main God's space, prioritizing the improvement of his own strength.

As for real-life living issues, Li Wuching was not too worried. He could certainly obtain what he needed through the Main God's space's trading system. He did not aspire to a luxurious life; just a worry-free life would suffice.

Speaking of his job, Li Wuching was still quite depressed. He studied computer software in college, but after graduation, the programming language had changed drastically, with rapid updates. He had to go to a training company for a few months.

Those few months were a waste; he didn't learn much, but the tuition was high, and he had to take out a loan, which required him to pay 1,500 yuan per month for a year after starting work.

With a low salary and the high cost of living in the Imperial City, paying 1,500 yuan per month, Li Wuching's life over the past year can be imagined.
