I have an all-knowing mirror

Chapter 121 Deciding the Outcome in Silence

"You replied to me so quickly?"

Tega Red Cloud was quite surprised.

In his mind, strategists were all extremely aloof.

What Tega Red Cloud didn't know was that Su Yuan already knew he would be looking for him at this time and was waiting for him.

The search for the strategist 'Ming' to advise him was a temporary measure by Tega Chiyun, and Su Yuanwan would only be able to reply within half an hour to an hour.

Tega Akame would then abandon this idea.

After all, as a direct descendant of the Chiyun family and the patriarch's son, Tega Chiyun had long been surrounded by strategists arranged by the family.

Normally, Tega Akane would consult the personal advisors assigned by his family.

"Um"

Tega. Akane thought for a moment and immediately sent a message: "Mr. Ming, do you have time now? Can you offer me some advice?"

"can."

Upon seeing the reply with the word "Yes," Tega. Akane immediately applied to enter Su Yuan's personal space.

*Buzz* The application was approved, and Tega Red Cloud appeared in Su Yuan's virtual world personal space.

Tega Red Cloud sensed a change in the surrounding scenery and arrived at a manor with a small bridge and flowing water, where he also saw a black-haired human man.

"Greetings, Mr. Ming." Tega Akane immediately bowed slightly.

This was also part of the Red Cloud family's teachings to him: never be disrespectful to any strategist.

After all, compared to those high-level life forms, strategists who hide in the shadows and rely on the power of the masses are much more difficult to deal with.

Offending a strategist can have varying degrees of impact; minor ones are self-evident, but major ones can shake the very foundation of a family.

Throughout the long history of the human empire in the Canglan universe, countless families and civilizations have risen and fallen, and behind many of them, strategists have been pulling the strings.

Even in the history of the thirty-six great cosmic human empires, the destruction of some cosmic human empires was also the work of those top strategists.

"Hello." Su Yuan smiled. In the virtual world, Tega Red Cloud's appearance was similar to that of a human from Earth, the only difference being that his pupils were crimson.

This is also a characteristic of the Crimson Cloud Clan: crimson pupils, which are not only an external feature but also embody the Crimson Cloud Clan's innate abilities.

Tell me about your situation.

Su Yuan got straight to the point.

"Mr. Ming."

Tega Akane composed himself and immediately said, "My full name is Tega Akane. As you can probably guess, I come from the Akane family."

Su Yuan nodded slightly: "The Crimson Cloud family is not weak in the human empire of the Canglan Universe."

In fact, Su Yuan had already learned all this information from the gray mirror, but he listened patiently in order to prevent Tega Red Cloud from having any doubts.

Otherwise, before Tega Akane could even speak, Su Yuan would say he knew everything. What would Tega Akane think of that?
“The patriarch of the Chiyun family is my father, and I am his 372nd son.”

Tega. Chiyun continued, "The Chiyun family is very strict about the education of its offspring. If one does not have the ability, it is absolutely impossible to enter the family's upper echelons and participate in family decision-making."

"Ah."

Su Yuan nodded.

In the cosmic forces, there are almost no rich second-generation individuals who are ignorant and incompetent but hold extremely high positions.

Every cosmic power places great importance on the cultivation of its offspring, and only those with truly capable descendants can enter the upper echelons of the family.

Incompetent? Then keep them as parasites, they won't be involved in any family decisions.

"As for judging whether offspring are capable, there are two aspects: talent in cultivation and talent in management."

“My talent for cultivation is average. After hundreds of years, I still haven’t stepped into the realm of interstellar life. I gave up long ago.”

"But management talent."

Tega. Akane's eyes lit up, then dimmed again. "Actually, he's just average. It's just that his management talent doesn't reflect his own abilities."

Su Yuan listened quietly.

Cultivation talent can only be acquired by oneself. Under the premise of equal cultivation resources, some people can become star life forms, while others cannot even become level 6 life forms.

This is the difference in talent for cultivation.

It cannot be hidden.

Just management talent? Management focuses more on the ability to use people.

That depends a bit on luck.

"As early as a hundred years ago, my family began to observe me, including the transaction details and profits of the ten life-bearing planets they gifted me."

Tega Red Cloud immediately sent a set of data to Su Yuan, which contained the profit situation of the ten inhabited planets he had managed over the past hundred years.

Since the evaluation criteria are based on management ability, the higher the profit generated, the higher the evaluation.

"Mr. Ming, look at these data. What kind of evaluation do you think I can get during tomorrow's family visit?"

Tega Akane looked at Su Yuan, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"What review?"

After looking at it for a while, Su Yuan said, "A C grade rating."

"A grade C?"

Tega Red Cloud was stunned.

The family test evaluation, from highest to lowest, is S, A, B, C, and D.

While a C-level rating isn't the lowest possible rating, it's merely a minimum requirement to pass the test, and a far cry from entering the upper echelons of the family.

"How can this be?"

Tega Akane frowned. In order to obtain a high evaluation in the test, he could be said to have paid a great price and even used some means.

"You falsified these data, didn't you?"

Su Yuan said with a smile.

"you?"

Tega Red Cloud was suddenly startled.

He did indeed falsify the data, precisely to make the data look better and improve the evaluation results.

Of course, Tega Red Cloud wasn't stupid either. His methods of forgery were extremely secretive, and no one knew about them, not even his personal strategist.

"You mean, how would I know?"

Su Yuan countered with a question.

"Correct."

Tega Akame was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"How I know is another matter, but do you think your methods of forgery can fool the family elders?"

Su Yuan asked.

In the answer given by the gray mirror, Teka Red Cloud, who was originally expected to receive a B rating, was ultimately found to have falsified data and his rating was lowered to only a C.

"This"

Tega Red Cloud was speechless.

He was originally very confident in his forgery methods, but now even Su Yuan has seen through it, let alone the family elders.

"Please teach me, Mr. Ming."

Tega. Akane stood up and bowed respectfully to Su Yuan.

At this moment, Tega Red Cloud held Su Yuan in extremely high regard, after all, even his personal strategist hadn't noticed the falsified parts in that data.

When they arrived at Su Yuan's place, they noticed it after looking at it for a while.

It is conceivable that Su Yuan's scheming ability far surpasses that of his personal strategist.

"No need for that, just tell me what level of evaluation you want."

Su Yuan looked at Tega Red Cloud and said.

What level of evaluation do you want to achieve?

Tega Red Cloud blinked.

This is something he can say casually.

"If possible, an S-level rating would be the obvious choice."

Tega. Akane cautiously probed.

The S-rank rating is the highest evaluation for offspring within the Chiyun family. In the past hundred years, no more than ten family members have received this rating. Tega Chiyun never dared to dream that he could receive such a rating.

But when Su Yuan asked him what level of evaluation he wanted, Tega Chiyun blurted it out.

"no problem."

Su Yuan nodded.

"no problem?"

This time, it was Tega Akame's turn to be shocked.

He was just saying it casually; could Su Yuan really do it?
"But what price are you willing to pay?"

Su Yuan looked at Tega Red Cloud and asked.

"Mr. Ming, please tell me, I can get it for you no matter the price."

Tega. Chiyun realized that what Su Yuan said was true, and his spirits immediately lifted.

"I don't want money."

Su Yuan shook his head.

"for free?"

Tega Red Cloud looked at Su Yuan.

"I want that 'Yin-Yang Blood Pool' that your Chiyun family has in their collection."

Su Yuan said directly.

The Yin-Yang Blood Pool is a cosmic wonder, born from a planet filled with Yin and Yang energies. It was eventually discovered by the Chiyun family's exploration team, who then took it back to their clan.

This cosmic artifact played a significant role in Su Yuan's cultivation. When he broke through from planetary life to cosmic life, he used the Yin and Yang energies to condense a cosmic life form, bypassing the early stage of cosmic life and directly entering the middle stage. He also needed to rely on the power of this artifact.

Furthermore, this 'Yin-Yang Blood Pool' is also very necessary for Su Yuanxing's cultivation during his life stage.

With the help of the gray mirror, Su Yuan learned that there were more than 1.8 million treasures in the universe similar to the Yin-Yang Blood Pool, among which the easiest to obtain was the 'Yin-Yang Blood Pool' collected by the Crimson Cloud family.

As for the Yin-Yang Blood Pool, being an item of the Crimson Cloud Clan, it can only be obtained by members of the clan.

"Yin-Yang Blood Pool?"

Tega Akane immediately began searching for the treasure.

Finally, I found this rare item on the family's internal exchange list.

"The Yin-Yang Blood Pool can automatically condense a large amount of Yin and Yang energy, which is of great benefit to comprehending the power of Yin and Yang. Exchange price: two million merits."

Tega Akakumo's pupils contracted slightly.

He didn't doubt why Su Yuan knew about such a rare item in the family. After all, with so many members of the Chiyun family, it was perfectly normal for some of the treasures exchanged within the family to be leaked.

Tega Red Cloud was shocked by the exchange price of this strange item.

Two million merits.

It should be noted that it is extremely difficult for the Crimson Cloud Clan to obtain merit.

The value of two million merits far exceeds that of two billion Canglan coins.

"Mr. Ming, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that my family's contributions are far from enough."

Tega Red Cloud sighed. So far, his family's merits amounted to only 500,000, a far cry from 2 million.

"If you can get an S-rank rating, you will receive an additional 1.5 million merit points from the family."

Su Yuan immediately said.

As soon as these words came out.

Tega Red Cloud was stunned.

Su Yuan knew so much about the Chi Yun family, even the rewards for achieving an S-rank rating.

"An S-level rating is crucial for you. It will allow you to enter the upper echelons of the family, and it's not impossible for you to compete for the position of patriarch in the future."

Su Yuan looked at Tega Red Cloud and spoke slowly.

"The position of clan leader?"

Tega Red Cloud, his heart burning with excitement, gritted his teeth and said, "Deal."

"Row."

Su Yuan nodded, then stood up. "Now, under the witness of the virtual world network, we will sign a contract. If you can get an S-level rating, you will give me the Yin-Yang Blood Pool. If you can't get an S-level rating, I won't take a penny."

Upon hearing the contents of the contract with Su Yuan, Tega. Chiyun felt reassured.

In fact, he didn't care much about the Yin-Yang Blood Pool with two million merits. As long as he could get an S-level rating and enter the family's upper echelons, what did two million merits matter?
What Tega Red Cloud cared about was whether Su Yuan could help him get an S-rank rating.

Now that the contract has been signed, Tega Akane feels a little relieved.

After all, if he doesn't get an S-level rating, Su Yuan won't charge him a single penny.

In this situation, his interests are intertwined with Su Yuan's.

The contract has been signed.

Su Yuan immediately ordered, "Delete all the fabricated content in your data report and keep only the most accurate data."

"it is good."

Tega Akane immediately began to operate.

If data fraud is destined to be discovered, then it's definitely best to show the real data.

"Next, adjust the ten inhabited planets under your management, focusing future support on strengthening the capabilities of members of remote tribes and exploring unknown star regions."

Su Yuan spoke up.

"Cultivating the strength of the clansmen?"

Tega Red Cloud was somewhat puzzled, as there were a large number of Red Cloud family members on the ten inhabited planets he managed.

These clansmen all came from remote branches. Although they were nominally members of the Crimson Cloud Clan, they were far from being core members.

Should we increase investment in these remote branch tribes?
"Do as I instruct."

Su Yuan spoke calmly, then added, "Furthermore, when you answer the questions posed by the elders tomorrow, you should also base your answers on these aspects."

Although Tega Red Cloud didn't understand many of Su Yuan's instructions, it was abnormal for a strategist to be able to see through his actions.

Therefore, Tega Akame did not have much of a negative reaction.

the next day.

In a magnificent hall.

Tega Akane stood nervously in the center of the hall.

Several family elders were sitting high up.

Meanwhile, the management data for the ten inhabited planets that he had submitted was being reviewed by several elders.

After a long time.

The elder sitting in the middle spoke up: "Tega Red Cloud, why do you think we should increase support for people from remote areas?"

"The universe is vast and boundless, and there are far too many powerful forces. It is difficult for us core members of the clan to continue to support the glory of the Crimson Cloud Clan."

Tega Akane recited the answers he had memorized.

This was also the answer Su Yuan gave him.

"Ah."

The elder sitting at the head of the table nodded slightly.

He then got up and left.

"Is this the end?"

Tega Red Cloud looked somewhat bewildered.

After the test.

Tega Red Cloud immediately entered the virtual world and met with Su Yuan.

"Mr. Ming, the elder who tested me didn't ask many questions. What does that mean?"

Tega Red Cloud couldn't help but ask.

He inquired about the trials of other members of his clan, but the elders asked him a whole host of questions.
