Interstellar travel, a beloved companion, a magnificent and turbulent otherworld.

The top three winners of the competition were announced, and the plants they cultivated were placed on the highest display platform. To better showcase the plants, the platform was designed to rotate 360 ​​degrees, ensuring that no matter which direction the audience was sitting in, they could see the entire plant from every angle.

The three men in the VIP stands—Di Jue, Dongfang Yu, and Guan Yunzhou—glanced at the works displayed below the stage, then at the ones they held in their own hands. Although they said nothing, it was as if they had said everything.

She then carefully stored it in her personal storage, deciding to transplant it into a pretty flowerpot when she got home and place it in her bedroom so she could see it anytime.

This is very meaningful, especially since it was given to them by their beloved Mo Li.

However, they forgot one thing: each of their bedrooms had been carefully decorated by Mo Li, and many of the plants that she had personally nurtured and cultivated were their favorites.

"Now let us welcome the champion, runner-up and third place winners of the first low-level and mid-level planter competition of this year's Five Great Empires Annual Exchange Meeting to the stage, and please welcome our special guest today... to present them with their unique honors."

As soon as he finished speaking, applause rang out in the space, accompanied by cheers and shouts from different directions.

"Wow, has this moment that everyone's been waiting for finally arrived? Although this is just the opening match and not that exciting yet, can I say that I didn't leave my seat for the entire three hours?"

"It's such a rare opportunity to see so many excellent growers personally nurturing and cultivating plants. Especially since this is the first time I've seen a seed sprout up close and then... it's incredible. It makes me marvel at the wonder of life once again."

"After watching the whole thing, I couldn't help but feel sorry for how our interstellar environment has become so bad. I really hope that planters can cultivate more and more plants so that our interstellar environment can gradually recover. That way, maybe I can actually see some truly beautiful natural scenery in my lifetime."

"These are just low-level and mid-level planters. What will high-level and saint-level planters be like? I'm already looking forward to it. No, I can't miss the next few matches no matter what."

"Ah, ah, ah, what should I do? I feel like I haven't missed a single match at any of the Five Great Empires Exchange Conferences. Unfortunately, the tickets are too sought after, and the exorbitant prices make it impossible for me to attend. It seems I'll have to stay home and watch the live stream on the StarNet from now on."

The awards ceremony on stage was over; only trophies and certificates of honor were presented on the spot. The real prizes for these three growers were distributed gradually after the competition. First, they received the resources they so desperately sought, along with a generous cash prize, and of course...

This is why they all want to be in the top three, especially the champion, because they directly gain fame and fortune, as well as the glory that accompanies them for the next year. These are directly linked to the resources they own.

Although it was only the first competition and not very difficult, and it didn't cause much of a stir, the three winners—champion, runner-up, and third-place winner—received real benefits. The resources they gained from this competition alone were equivalent to the resources of an ordinary planter of their rank for the next ten years.

The temptation was just too great; otherwise, we wouldn't have seen them grinning widely when receiving awards, their gums showing, making them appear somewhat unrefined.

There was no way around it; they simply couldn't control their unusually excited emotions.

I've received so much, it's hard not to be excited.

"It seems the rewards for this competition were quite substantial, otherwise the three of them wouldn't be smiling like that!" Mo Li paused, then continued, "They certainly didn't seem very valuable."

"I have to say, I'm actually looking forward to seeing how the high-level and saint-level planters perform on the podium after they win."

“If Ali is interested, we can all come and watch the games.”

"Momo can witness this for herself. During the competition, this VIP stand is exclusively for us."

"I will accompany you, Madam."

"Great! Anyway, we're returning to the capital star position for this grand event. Besides, aren't the goods sold at the market next to each match different?"

"It's rare to have such a chance to shop online; otherwise, I would really have to travel to the other four great empires separately." She paused, her gaze shifting to her slightly protruding belly, her eyes instantly softening.

"It seems that my physical condition doesn't allow it in the short term. There's nothing I can do; these little ones in my belly are holding me back."

The Emperor also looked at her abdomen, his tone filled with undisguised doting: "Yes, these little rascals have become Mommy's sweet burden."

Dongfang Yu: "They just want to stick to their mom all the time."

Guan Yunzhou: "Madam, you have sacrificed so much for our family and our children. You have worked so hard."

"No, I feel very happy and content. Besides, staying at home like this is quite nice. Moreover, compared to other things, my babies are more precious. I don't know how many people in the interstellar world want this sweet burden of mine."

Emperor: "Today's competition is over. There's one last segment left. Momo, are you going home?"

What step is it?

"After each competition, the winning entries will be auctioned off on-site for the sake of interactivity."

"There's such a part? I must say, it's quite interesting. It's still early, so let's stay a little longer."

Mo Li would never say that she was curious about the final price at which the three plants were auctioned off.

"Thank you for remaining in your seats at this point and not choosing to leave. Now, we've come to the part that everyone has been eagerly anticipating."

To build suspense, the host on stage deliberately paused for a moment before resuming his loud voice:

"Alright, alright, without further ado, let's officially begin the auction of these three plants. First up is the perfect piece from the third-place winner, with a starting price of 100,000 interstellar coins."

Upon hearing the starting price, Mo Li looked surprised. She hadn't expected that there would be such a high price. This gave her the illusion of an inflation of interstellar currency.
