It attracts countless alien talents to the Universe Star, then filters them through layers to extract the finest of the finest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ultimately, all these talents will converge on the Universe Civilization’s homeworld to contribute to its prosperity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So under this broader context, it’s no surprise the authorities are promoting Miss Luo Quan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But native Universe Star residents are somewhat displeased—outstanding talents from elsewhere inevitably squeeze their own upward mobility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if these aliens make contributions, it’s relative to the entire Universe; how much actually trickles down to each individual?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At best, they get slightly better welfare and more convenient life technologies, but for those seeking greater strength or higher positions, these alien talents are their greatest competitors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, as the representative of alien talent, Luo Quan is naturally disliked by many native Universe Star residents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if some dislike her, others will surely adore her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beauty blending traits from both the Divine Protection Federation and the Holy Tang Heavenly Dynasty is exceedingly rare; people say mixed heritage optimizes genes, but usually only in intelligence—no one’s ever claimed it enhances beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So a mixed-race beauty like Luo Quan is exceptionally rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, she possesses an incredibly rare golden hair color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the doctrine of the Universe Star’s largest church, this is the hair color only the purest maidens possess, symbolizing the favor and blessing of the Heavenly God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every past Holy Maiden, Holy Mother, and Holy Child of the Dawn Church had pure golden hair; thus, Luo Quan’s appearance is actually very much to the Universe Star people’s taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And her type is traditionally pure and sacred, yet she possesses a figure more devilish than any demon—the combination creates a tremendous contrast beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So compared to opposition, support for her is still stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, every beauty on the list has opposition—no one can be universally loved—but opposition to Luo Quan is more numerous, making it seem as if she doesn’t deserve to share the stage with the other nine, when in truth, they’re all about the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The good news is, Luo Quan has the backing of the Wu Shen Palace; even if they oppose her, they dare not speak too boldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can curse, but they can’t curse her mother—if they do, the Wu Shen Palace will show them that the internet isn’t a lawless zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given Luo Quan’s resilience, reading comments that begin with “Luo Quan, hi” to insult her, she finds it hilarious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On domestic social platforms with worse environments, insults always start with “nm Sile ” to set the tone—meaning no matter the outcome, nm is doomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such polite cursing would never survive on the Chinese internet—it wouldn’t protect one’s parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Luo Quan, with her rich experience in online debates, this level of verbal abuse can’t break her at all; she even marvels at how high the aliens’ standards are.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Insulting someone with “hi” as the opener and “thank you” as the closer—you’d think it’s a debate competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from being overwhelming in volume and making your eyes dizzy, it has zero impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One can only say the Wu Shen Palace spokesperson identity is incredibly effective—it’s like holding a civil servant badge, leaving countless trolls unsure how to even begin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, she doesn’t need to worry about being insulted; as for whether her performance slot is secure, she was concerned—but then the director team made an unexpected decision, putting her mind at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because the Universe Beauty Grand Prix draws so much attention, public reaction to the show has been extraordinarily strong: people keep asking why there are only so few contestants, why isn’t so-and-so on, isn’t she beautiful enough?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such questions bombard the director team’s social media accounts daily; some even directly message their private communication accounts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helplessly, the director team had to increase the number of performers—from the original ten to thirty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This means the originally selected ten no longer need to fear being pushed out; the additional twenty slots will be chosen from among the popular female stars who didn’t make the initial cut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With more slots, those who complain about unfairness will fall silent—after all, Level 8 beauties are already rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns; once most are selected, the few left behind can’t cause any real ripples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But judging by the director team’s intentions, they plan to expand the slots to thirty-six, so as to include every known Level 8 and Level 9 beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they really do that, the stage performance will be spectacular; netizens have already nicknamed it “The Thirty-Six Heavenly Stems,” and some even suggest expanding further to invite the seventy-two Level 7 beauties, totaling one hundred and eight fine women…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those uttering such nonsense are definitely the ultimate trolls—only here for the spectacle, with no real interest in the show’s artistic value; they’d probably cheer if these beauties started fighting on stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the director team would never do such a thing; assembling the “Thirty-Six Heavenly Stems” is already the limit—adding seventy-two more, each with a solo performance, would leave no room for any other segments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless, expanding the number of performers has firmly secured the top ten’s positions—they no longer need to fear being displaced by newcomers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan is undoubtedly the luckiest: in the morning, she was mocked for riding the policy wave, nicknamed “Holy Luo,” sparking envy and resentment among many young Universe residents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By afternoon, those voices had faded—after all, the slots had expanded to thirty, and with her looks, making the top thirty was effortless; the idea of “policy benefits” no longer applied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as one problem was solved, another arose: clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Universe Star, all Level 8 and above beauties are massively popular stars who have contracts with internationally renowned fashion brands and receive appropriate, dazzling outfits for important occasions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Universe Star doesn’t emphasize evening gowns—any outfit that’s lavish and grand is suitable; if it can reach the “Ritual Garment Realm,” it’s even more impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan hasn’t received any fashion brand endorsements, so she can’t get such high-end attire; she might find something last-minute, but she doesn’t even know how to contact anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could post a plea on her social account—it would certainly draw attention—but doing so would be too embarrassing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan still values her current image on the Universe Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Earth, because of her early association with the Abyssal Maw, any attempt to appear aloof ended before it began, so she had to adopt a comedic, clownish persona.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the Universe Star, so far, she hasn’t displayed any disgraceful expressions or behavior; to most people, she remains a goddess—even if that goddess comes from humble origins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To preserve this image, Luo Quan feels she shouldn’t publicly beg for collaborations—it would make her seem utterly ignored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem is, she truly is ignored—no brand has contacted her, and it’s frustrating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps they doubt her commercial value, or perhaps they’re wary of her connection to the Wu Shen Palace—either way, none of the fashion brands have made a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of the Wu Shen Palace, they do have their own unique clothing: a sleek silk martial artist robe, similar to what performers wear in martial arts shows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s convenient for martial arts routines, allowing full movement without fear of exposure or restriction—but it’s absolutely not luxurious or beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After much thought, Luo Quan finally turned her attention to Bai Xingwei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a pure martial artist, Bai Xingwei’s daily attire is simple and plain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But given her family’s immense wealth and power, logically, she should own many high-end formal gowns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Luo Quan went to Bai Xingwei’s door and gently knocked twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come in,” Bai Xingwei said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan pushed the door open and saw her lying on a floating chair, gently bobbing up and down, looking utterly relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re not cultivating?” Luo Quan asked cheerfully, not revealing her purpose right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m watching the Star Sand Grand Prix. What do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one visits without a reason; Bai Xingwei knew Luo Quan had come for something, so she put down her light screen: “Just say it outright—no need to be shy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guess I can’t hide anything from you,” Luo Quan chuckled. “I’m on the show now—do you have any formal gowns suitable for grand occasions? Something lavish and beautiful, doesn’t have to be top-tier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I thought this was a real problem? This is nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xingwei thought Luo Quan was seriously underestimating her—and the Bai family: “I have countless gowns—but they’re not just good, they’re excellent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Bai Xingwei stood and walked to the wardrobe, opening it—instead of clothes, a tunnel to an extradimensional space appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing at the tunnel’s mouth, Bai Xingwei smiled at Luo Quan: “Since childhood, my parents bought me countless clothes—from age one to eighteen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But because they were rarely around and didn’t care about me, they didn’t even know my size or measurements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps they were too lazy to find out, so they bought every possible size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My body type differs from yours, so clothes I bought myself won’t fit you—but this wardrobe definitely holds a gown in your size.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Bai Xingwei stepped inside; Luo Quan followed right behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, even Luo Quan, with all her experience, had never seen a wardrobe connected to an extradimensional warehouse before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This extradimensional space was large enough to hold a soccer field; clothes filled the sky, so numerous she couldn’t even begin to estimate the quantity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is what real interstellar wealth looks like!” Luo Quan thought, gazing at the endless gowns.\u003C\u002Fp>",2143,"2026-06-20T22:54:06.151Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","0db1ae5557819da015f71e72bd41f2024235f98aaef80ef639ecb5aeeed943fe","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-979","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-977",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbecoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-cover.jpg"]
