Earth Livestream: From the Start, Chosen for Humanity's Trial

A mysterious voice suddenly rings out in the minds of ten billion people across the globe:

“Human civilization is about to enter the Starsea Trial Grounds. Each round, one representative will be chosen at random to take part in a game of life and death.”

“The game will be livestreamed across the universe. Your performance will determine humanity's civilization rating.”

“Those with a rating too low will have their civilization erased.”

Lin Ye unexpectedly becomes the first “human representative,” only to face the ridicule of viewers across the universe:

“Can this monkey from a lowly civilization last three minutes?”

“I bet a hundred star coins he'll beg for mercy in tears!”

But when Lin Ye solves a thousand-year-old riddle with mathematical reasoning in the first S-rank instance, The Abyssal Castle, toys with the instance's boss using psychology, and turns the tables on contestants from advanced civilizations with the art of war from Huaxia...

The comments explode.
