Universal Creation: Starting with a God Simulator!

Chapter 29: Class Rep, You Don’t Want the Teachers Knowing About This, Do You?

“What’s there to be afraid of?”

Su Bai replied calmly.

The old principal probably thought he had struck it lucky, gaining a sudden boost in power.

What he didn’t know was that with the simulator in hand, Su Bai’s legend would only continue to grow!

“Good, you’ve got ambition,” the old principal said with a hearty laugh.

“Since Xiang Hu received a Dragon Blood subsidy, I can’t show favouritism.”

He reached over the table and picked up a grey-gold ornament that resembled a mountain range.

“What do you think of this? It’ll be very helpful for the development of your world.”

“What is it?”

Su Bai had assumed it was a card, but it turned out to be something else entirely.

He took it, surprised, and examined it closely.

Chi Lansu also leaned in to take a look.

Having read many books, she quickly recognised its significance and exclaimed:

“A treasure of the heavens and earth?”

“Hm?”

Recalling information about these treasures, Su Bai’s heart surged with joy.

In the multiverse, some rare treasures naturally condensed from the laws of the world, remaining intact.

If used in a newly born world, they could directly replenish any missing laws.

Su Bai quickly checked the information on the mountain ornament.

As soon as he scanned it, a line of small text appeared over it:

[Innate Metallic Mountain Range: A treasure of the heavens and earth. Place it into the ground, and it will produce copper, iron, silver, and even some gold deposits.]

“It’s indeed a very useful treasure,” Su Bai said, thanking the principal as he accepted it without hesitation.

“During the battle, I noticed that although your subordinates were strong, they hadn’t yet developed a civilisation or started using tools,” the principal explained.

“Mineral veins are crucial to the development of civilisation. With this, your world will be able to equip itself with weapons and armour more quickly.”

“I’m sure by now, word has spread about your awakening of a world over 100 kilometres. Over the next few days, you’ll likely receive visits from various media outlets, corporations, and even large families trying to win you over.”

“But what I want to tell you is this: over the next six days, focus all your energy on nurturing your world! Prepare for the entrance exams!”

“All the attention and goodwill you’ll receive is based on your strength. If you score at the top in the exams, the benefits will be a thousandfold. And remember, the most powerful force is the state itself!

The government will invest heavily in you, providing endless resources. Whatever unique features your world produces, the state will buy them at high prices, ensuring your success.”

The old principal’s face grew serious as he spoke.

His voice was earnest—he didn’t want a promising student to go astray.

“I fully understand. I’ll spend the next few days in seclusion, focusing on cultivation,” Su Bai responded solemnly.

“I need to work hard on improving my snowmen too,” Chi Lansu chimed in, not wanting to be outdone.

The principal nodded in satisfaction:

“This year’s entrance exam is likely to be the hardest and most rewarding in the past decade.”

“Do you know what the prize for the top national scorer is this year?” he asked with a smile.

Su Bai and Chi Lansu both shook their heads.

“A treasure of the heavens and earth: a seed of the World Tree!”

The principal spoke with deep emotion.

What?!

Su Bai’s pupils contracted, and he exchanged a glance with Chi Lansu.

They both saw the shock in each other’s eyes.

When a world is born, a core treasure can greatly aid in managing the laws of the world, controlling the climate and rainfall.

Such treasures can transform the power of a world, helping it attract cosmic debris, and significantly boost its origin.

Additionally, they can multiply the projection power of the world’s owner by several times, even up to tenfold!

But the value of such a treasure is immeasurable.

Not even a super consortium could produce something like that.

And yet, the top prize for this year’s entrance exam was exactly that?!

With a World Tree seed, it was likely that a world could grow into a sixth-tier realm on its own!

Not to mention the many additional benefits such as inter-dimensional connectivity and the purification of spiritual energy.

“If I get that…”

Flames of desire flickered in Su Bai’s eyes.

Never before had he felt such a strong sense of possessiveness.

He was determined to take the top spot in the country!

“Well, that’s just something for you to think about. Without subordinates with demigod bloodlines, you won’t even make it into the top ten.

And without mythical species, taking one of the top three spots is impossible,”

the principal said, beginning to usher them out.

“You’d better head back and focus on your training.”

Su Bai and Chi Lansu sincerely bade him farewell.

At the very least, the principal had genuinely helped them.

“I hope those two young ones can surprise me,”

the principal murmured as he stood by the window, watching them leave.

His expression was solemn.

“The time I have left isn’t much either.”

“The best I can do for the country and human civilisation is to cultivate a few more worlds.”

…

Before Su Bai and Chi Lansu could leave the campus, they were surrounded by a swarm of reporters who had gotten wind of the situation.

“I’m a reporter from Guangcheng Evening News. Can you tell us how you expanded your world a hundredfold overnight?”

“Hello, Su Bai. I’m from Guangcheng News. Was yesterday’s awakening of a 1-kilometre world a mistake with the awakening stone?”

“Did you experience some kind of extraordinary encounter? Did you find a giant meteorite? Can you share more details with us?”

“I’m from the Emperor Corporation. After hearing about your achievements, our regional manager personally sent me to invite you to visit the Penguin Building.

Our Penguin Pantheon sincerely invites you to join us, and we guarantee you’ll be satisfied with the benefits.”

The barrage of reporters made Su Bai’s head spin.

Even the class president, Chi Lansu, had been squeezed out of the crowd.

Feeling overwhelmed, Su Bai quickly grabbed Chi Lansu’s hand and made a swift escape.

After running for a while and finally shaking off the paparazzi, Chi Lansu coughed twice.

“Ahem, um, you can let go of my hand now, can’t you?”

Only then did Su Bai realise he had been holding her hand for quite some time. It was warm and sweaty.

He quickly let go, chuckling:

“Things were chaotic earlier. I didn’t want us to get separated.”

A slight blush appeared on Chi Lansu’s face, but she didn’t say much.

In truth, the two of them often bantered, typical rivals who had fun teasing each other.

But there had never been any physical contact, certainly nothing as intimate as this.

This time, Su Bai had stood up for her and taught Xiang Hu a lesson, planting a small seed of youthful affection in the class rep’s heart.

“Since you’re fine now, I’ll head home,”

Chi Lansu said as she prepared to leave.

But Su Bai stopped her again, grabbing her hand.

“What—what are you doing? Trying to take advantage of me again?”

“Aren’t I moving house today? Surely the helpful class rep won’t let me struggle on my own?”

Su Bai shamelessly grinned, refusing to let go.

“Who said that? I’d actually love to see you all sweaty and exhausted,” Chi Lansu replied playfully, blinking her eyes.

“Oh really? Then I won’t hold back,” Su Bai said with a mischievous smile.

“Class rep, you don’t want the teachers to find out about your true nature, do you?”

“So you’ll help me move, won’t you?”

“Get lost!”

Chi Lansu blushed, kicking him playfully.

Laughing and teasing each other, the two of them headed back to Su Bai’s cramped living quarters to prepare for the move.

Of course, they didn’t need to do all the heavy lifting themselves.

A single phone call summoned a moving company.

All they needed to do was oversee the packing of some personal items.

While they were busy with the move, the news of Su Bai’s 100-kilometre world continued to spread throughout the city!

Even the group chats on their phones were buzzing with notifications.
