Zhou Yi had some doubts that he had heard wrong: "You're the new Zhuang Zi?"
703 spoke with some pride: "The Light Seed has chosen me, although I don't know if I was predestined from the start, or if the other candidates gave up, and I'm the successor by default."
"But now I am this generation's Zhuang Zi. Also, this generation's Lao Zi has been born, but for safety's sake, we do not know each other's real names and identities, just like in the past."
Zhou Yi was a bit curious: "Why were you chosen? Are there any specific selection criteria?"
"Yes."
The robotic dog said: "The Light Seed showed me the rules. The qualities required of Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi, as the highest decision-makers of the Mechanical Knights, are not the same."
"Lao Zi seeks the Dao, which is to find the fundamental laws of nature and the universe. It transcends language and form, and is the basis of all existence."
