Universe’s Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 454 - 453 This is Embarrassing
Chapter 454: Chapter 453 This is Embarrassing! Chapter 454 -453 This is Embarrassing! “Uncle Le, stop joking around. If a person of your noble character lacked integrity, wouldn’t we still be living in a primitive society, subsisting on the raw flesh and blood of animals!?” Wang Hao explained with a smile.
Le Yuanguang nodded repeatedly, “My dear nephew is right. Your uncle was just joking. In fact, my integrity has always been intact, and my character is indeed very noble.”
Wang Tianyi couldn’t bear it any longer and coughed out loud, “Ahem, let’s not debate whether this thing is a sacred item or an evil one. You should first cure them of their poison.”
“There is no antidote!” Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders, his expression akin to a pig unafraid of boiling water. He hadn’t enslaved the Ace Army and the guards yet, so why would he possibly give them an antidote? Even his own father showing up wouldn’t make a difference.
“No antidote!?” Wang Tianyi was stunned for a moment.
Wang Hao nodded, “That’s right, I don’t have any antidote on me.”
“You child, who ever poisons others without carrying an antidote!?” Wang Tianyi felt infuriated. He had figured it out; this kid was just playing the fool to buy time and then subdue the Ace Army and the guards.
“Didn’t you see how this Heavenly Burial Potion can even bring down a Martial Saint!?” Wang Hao wore an innocent face, “It’s a new product that I’ve just developed. Where would there be any antidote to it?”
“This…”
Wang Tianyi and Le Yuanguang were both shocked. Reminded by Wang Hao, they realized that indeed, Guan Xinxiong and the President, both Martial Saints, hadn’t escaped and were lying motionless on the ground.
At that moment, the way Wang Tianyi and Le Yuanguang looked at Wang Hao changed.
A mere eighteen-year-old youth, possessing the means to confront a Martial Saint—whether fair or foul—would absolutely shock the world if word got out.
Wang Hao sighed and took out a set of tools used by Pharmacists for eating, “If you want the antidote, then I can only make it on the spot. Let’s hope I can concoct the antidote quickly!”
Wang Tianyi and Le Yuanguang were speechless. They had every reason to suspect that Wang Hao was just putting on an act, with the purpose of bringing the Ace Army and the guards under his command.
Because from the start, that rabbit had never stopped; in just a few short minutes, it had already pricked more than a thousand soldiers with its needle.
Le Yuanguang pulled on Wang Tianyi and whispered, “Mr. Wang, since your son wants you to be President, I think you should just accept it. Now the Ace Army, the guards, they all listen to your son, what do you have to fear?”
Wang Tianyi frowned, “Do you think those people will agree?”
Le Yuanguang chuckled, “Mr. Wang, don’t forget you’re now a Martial Venerable, standing on equal footing with them. Moreover, your son has the support of the Potion Guild’s President, Senior Shui Yao, as well as Senior Jian Taifeng. You becoming President is absolutely no problem.”
“I’m not talking about the seniors, but those nobles.” Wang Tianyi sighed. To think that in the interstellar federation, eighty percent of the Martial Saints came from nobility. If those Martial Saints didn’t support him, even if he became President, who would he command to fight?
At that time, with external threats unresolved and internal strife emerging, what path would the Human Race take in the future?
“This is indeed a troublesome matter.” Le Yuanguang furrowed his brows. In his memory, nobles were selfish, cunning, and bold creatures.
Usually, the nobles would present themselves as serving the people, but in reality, they would extort money from the people to fill their own pockets.
But when someone threatened their interests, and the people no longer supported them, preventing them from making money, their usual approach was to reset things to square one.
That is, reshuffle the cards and start the game anew.
Because if they didn’t start over, with no one to support them, what kind of nobles would they be? Would they take pleasure in their own sense of superiority?
So, it might be better to gamble once, hoping to draw a better hand in the next round.
And now, there was an opportunity for a reshuffle—the opening of the gates, allowing the Dark Elves to come in and bring warfare to the common folk.
To remind the common folk how foolish it was to lose the protection of the nobility.
During this time, the nobility wouldn’t be idle. They would hide and watch from the shadows to see which of the rising rebellious forces had potential, then take them under their wing to strengthen their own position.
Next, they would wait, wait until the people had suffered so much that they could hardly hold on any longer, and then they would reappear as saviors descending from the heavens, heralding their own greatness.
As soon as that happened, the people who had suffered felt a ray of warm dawn’s light and immediately supported them, willing to be led and, subsequently, exploited once more.
Of course, the only nobles who dared to play such a game were those from the great houses, with a Martial Saint at their disposal, ensuring that even if they couldn’t continue to take advantage of the people following a reshuffle, their family would remain untroubled.
“Actually, you don’t need to worry about this at all,” Wang Hao said with a smile.
“What can you do!?” Wang Tianyi and Le Yuanguang asked curiously.
“Of course!” Wang Hao activated his personal ring and said with a loud laugh, “Now, let me show you what true technology is.”
“Buzz buzz…”
A powerful engine’s roar sounded, the earth split asunder, and a vast black hole appeared. Five enormous epic battleships presented themselves in an eye-catching form to the world.
“What is this…” Le Yuanguang exclaimed in shock.
Wang Hao cleared his throat and said gravely, “This is the epic battle fleet, capable of annihilating more than ten Martial Saints at once, several levels stronger than the armored battleships of the Dark Elves. As long as we have these, even if all the noble Martial Saints leave, we can still hold off the attacks of the Dark Elves and even counterattack.”
Wang Tianyi was overjoyed, now that the vacuum left by the noble Martial Saints could be filled; he had nothing more to worry about and could flex his muscles to his heart’s content.
“Congratulations, Mr. Wang on becoming President; the common folk will be blessed from now on,” Le Yuanguang congratulated with a bow.
“Good, today I shall take over the position of President, and I hereby swear to lead the people to rise up,” Wang Tianyi declared solemnly, his heart surging with fervor. He had awaited this moment for a long time, wanting to lead the Human Race to rise just like the first President, to stand proudly amongst the stars.
At this moment, the audience watching the live broadcast also boiled over.
“Support, Marshal Wang Tianyi for President.”
“From now on, we can escape from the burden of heavy taxation.”

“Right, I’ve struggled all my life, only to have my earnings taxed away by the nobility.”
“That’s true, the nobility not only impose heavy taxes but also often bully us, the ordinary citizens.”
“Now we have a better choice; we won’t choose the nobility, we support Marshal Wang Tianyi.”
“The nobility always find various pretexts to tax us, yet our Human Race hasn’t progressed for tens of thousands of years.”
“Nonsense, of course the nobility don’t want us to progress; if we did, how could they continue to rule over us!?”
“They’re all a bunch of vampires; we support Marshal Wang Tianyi.”
“……”
“Cough cough…” Wang Hao coughed, “Um, can I mention that the epic battleships are not yet completed?”
No sooner had he spoken than the surroundings fell instantly silent.
Everyone looked up at the five imposing epic battleships, only to see indeed that many parts were still under construction.
“This is awkward!” Le Yuanguang rubbed his temples, feeling like Wang Hao was really dropping them in it.
First, he painted such a grand vision, letting his father proudly show off his ambition and even make vows to strike against the noble forces.
But in the next moment, such a blunder occurred, and on live broadcast at that, leaving Wang Tianyi with no idea how to recover…
