Chapter 19: A Blessing in Disasters
"Concentrate your consciousness. Focus! Activate your power as an Evolver!"
The scene was a mess.
Some of the students were so focused that their faces turned red and their necks turned thick. Some tried to focus their consciousness to the point they almost fell asleep. There were even some who fell to the ground with lifeless eyes.
Only a few successfully connected to the internet.
"Teacher, why do I feel dizzy and unable to concentrate after entering Moon Web for a short while?" Yu Haitao rubbed his temples and asked in confusion.
"It\'s normal. You just have to get used to it. The consciousness of a genetic warrior is relatively weaker," The teacher replied, "When a newbie first enters Moon Web, half an hour is the limit. After adapting, they can maintain it for about one to two hours."
"So short?" Yu Haitao was a little unwilling. He wanted to learn the Armor Barbarian Evolution Technique as soon as possible.
"Unless it\'s an ability user with a strong and stable consciousness, otherwise, one to two hours a day is enough," The teacher said, "After all, you\'re only comprehending cultivation techniques in Moon Web. The various advanced evolution techniques have to be cultivated in real life to strengthen your physical fitness. It\'s the same for combat techniques. It\'s one thing to understand them visually, but it\'s another to grasp them. Moreover, after becoming Evolvers, you have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting your homeland and fighting monsters in the wild!"
"Yes, teacher!" The students were impassioned.
"Continue cultivating and prepare for the rookie trial."
"Yes, sir!"
...
In the infirmary, a ray of sunlight shone on the window.
[Basic Red Sun Saber Art, beginner ↑]
Lights flashed in front of Wang Ye\'s eyes, and the memories in his mind were exceptionally clear.
The three moves of the Red Sun Saber Technique were imprinted in his mind.
The first move, Rising Sun, was quick and concise.
The second move, Dawn Blade, was as fierce as fire.
The third move, Myriad Light, had astonishing speed and explosive power.
Coupled with the Red Sun Evolution Technique, he was like a fish in water.
He worked hard all night!
In the beginning, he was still not used to connecting to MoonWeb. After he comprehended the Red Sun Evolution Technique, he took a two-hour nap and his consciousness recovered a lot.
Then, he connected to Moon Web again and started cultivating the basic routine saber techniques.
Out of the 18 sets of Basic Saber Techniques, he was most interested in the Supreme Swift Saber Technique, the Red Sun Saber Technique, and the Thunderous Explosion Saber Technique.
The reason why he ultimately chose the Red Sun Saber Technique was out of rationality.
From the beginning to the end, his essence was the one that stood out from his six physical aspects.
Mastering the Red Sun Saber Technique and reaching the beginner level would be faster than the other two sets of saber techniques.
On top of that, the stronger his essence, the stronger the power of the Red Sun Saber Technique!
"The Red Sun Saber Technique will be used to attack while the Comprehensive Saber Technique will be used to defend. It\'s a perfect combination."
Wang Ye got off the bed.
His body was recovering well.
After becoming an Evolver, his body became stronger, thus his recovery ability naturally improved greatly.
Plus, he had cultivated the Red Sun Evolution Technique last night, which filled his body with fiery essence that improved his physique greatly too.
He wished he could have sex!
"Regardless of whether it\'s the evolutionary technique or the saber technique, the efficiency will be greatly reduced after the beginner level if one only comprehends them in Moon Web. One will still need to practice them together. Only by combining the two can they complement each other. That being said, I don\'t need to do that."
To him, the best efficiency was to reach the beginner level in Moon Web, and then rely on his talent and potential points to increase the level.
It was simple and crude, saving time and effort.
The rest of the time, he would cultivate the Red Sun Evolution Technique.
"Whoosh!" Wang Ye absorbed cosmic energy and fused it into his body.
He carefully sensed the combination of his body\'s cells with the energy and compared it to the Life Evolution Technique.
They were completely different.
"The Life Evolution Technique is a comprehensive evolution of the body, mind, genes, and so on. In the meantime, the Red Sun Evolution Technique only focuses on the physical fitness aspect, especially the increase in essence."
Wang Ye quickly made a judgment.
The Red Sun Evolution Technique was better.
It was an advanced evolution technique exclusive to genetic warriors.
In terms of increasing the strength of the body, the beginner-level Red Sun Evolution Technique was equivalent to the perfect-level Life Evolution Technique.
At the proficient level, it was far beyond that.
"I need potential points."
Wang Ye knew exactly what he had to do.
The rookie trial was in ten days. At that time, either he or Yu Haitao would die. No one would let the other off.
The Red Sun Evolution Technique required 10 potential points to go from the practiced level to the proficient level.
With his current strength, he only needed three days.

December 30th.
"You want to be discharged? No! This is too reckless!" Shu Meng\'ou\'s expression changed, and she stopped peeling the apple, "I\'ve seen your medical records. You have to stay in the hospital for at least five days!"
"I\'ve almost recovered," After Wang Ye finished cultivating the Red Sun Evolution Technique, he let out a sigh.
He had recovered faster than he had expected.
The Red Sun Evolution Technique had a special bonus to the strengthening and recovery of one\'s physique.
"You can\'t be so willful. What if your injuries worsen?" Seeing that her persuasion was ineffective, Shu Meng\'ou couldn\'t help but pout her red lips.
She raised the apple knife and said angrily, "If you mess around, I\'ll, I\'ll..."
"You\'re going to do surgery on me? I\'m afraid you won\'t be able to cut it," Wang Ye teased.
Shu Meng\'ou snorted and turned her head away, pretending to be angry.
"Here, take it," Wang Ye took out a card.
"What is it? I don\'t want it!" Shu Meng\'ou sneaked a glance.
"It\'s the room card to my Evolver\'s apartment," Wang Ye stuffed the card into Shu Mengou\'s soft hands and said, "If you\'re not at ease, come over and check my body at any time. If you find anything wrong, send me to the hospital immediately."
"That\'s more like it," Shu Meng\'ou\'s expression softened, "I\'ll go over every night."
Wang Ye patted her butt, "I\'m afraid your body can\'t take it."
"Wang Ye!"
...
After completing the discharge procedures, Wang Ye went to the second floor of the West Camp hall, straight to the head instructor\'s office.
"Knock, knock."
"Come in."
Wang Ye sat down in front of Head Instructor Li.
"Have you been discharged?" Head Instructor Li placed his hands on the table.
"Yes," Wang Ye looked at him and said, "I\'d like to know what happened that day, as well as the various data of my body."
Head Instructor Li nodded and opened a video on his laptop. He turned to Wang Ye and said, "Your evolution this time is a special case. The data research center has already studied it many times."
"I see," Wang Ye stared at the screen.
He watched as the red light alarm went off and his various data changed drastically. Then, he saw the red light turn green, and he was pushed out for surgery.
"I understand."
Wang Ye watched the entire video, and all the doubts in the past two days were solved.
First, he had indeed failed to evolve, and the remaining blood crystals in his body had mutated.
Secondly, although he had awakened as an ability user, it was not a normal awakening. His brain response had not reached the threshold, so his interface only showed that he had awakened as an ability. He was not a level 1 ability user yet, which was why he could not open the ability user\'s door in Moon Web.
Third, his talent, the jade ball of light, had saved him.
"The good news is that your life condition is good and stable. Your genomes have been tested to be intact and will not affect your future cultivation," Head Instructor Li crossed his arms and looked at Wang Ye, "The bad news is that due to the interference of the mutated blood crystal, the effect of your evolution is extremely poor. The evolution rate of your body is only 47%, which is far lower than the average genetic warrior\'s 88.9%."
"Thank you," Wang Ye nodded.
He stood up, bowed slightly to Head Instructor Li, and left.
...
Upon walking out of the head instructor\'s office, Wang Ye was relieved. His steps were relaxed and he had a smile on his face.
47% body evolution rate?
No, Head Instructor Li had miscalculated.
In fact, it was even lower.
His physical fitness score was 103 during the exam and 151 when he finished his evolution. From this, his body evolution rate was determined to be 47%.
In reality, even after the graduation examination\'s comprehensive physical assessment, he had never stopped cultivating the perfection-level Life Evolution Technique.
By the time he was injected with the evolution drug, his physical fitness score should be around 125 to 130.
After evolution, his physical score was 151. This was the result of the evolution of his life level and the natural perfection of the genes.
The true evolution rate of his body might not even be 20%.
But so what?
This time, it was a blessing in disguise!
If he evolved normally, he would only reach the threshold of a level 1 genetic warrior.
But now, apart from being a genetic warrior, he had also opened up a brand new path of cultivation as an ability user!
Originally, with his talent, he definitely could not achieve such a feat in a short time.
This was because one would be a level 1 ability user upon normal awakening. One could then open the ability user\'s door in Moon Web and choose one of the abilities to cultivate.
In contrast, he had barely awakened as an ability user by the stimulation of his talent. His level as an ability user now was almost equivalent to a pre-genetic warrior.
That being said, like all cultivation techniques, the most difficult thing for him was not how to increase his level, but to reach the beginner level!
When the words "awakened as an ability user" appeared on his interface, it was only a matter of time before he became a real ability user.
As for the losses...
"They can be ignored."
Fifteen minutes later, Wang Ye walked out of the data research center.
He had completed a full body examination, and was determined to be very healthy!
Not only were there no residual side effects, but his body was also full of vitality and heat!
Strength 216, flexibility 188, speed 231, agility 245, durability 197, essence 303!
[Physical fitness score: 230]
He was only one step away from reaching the threshold of 250 to become a level 1 genetic warrior!
It was all thanks to the Red Sun Evolution Technique.
After upgrading it for two levels in a row, his physical fitness had improved in all aspects, especially his essence. The improvement was shocking.
"Yu Haitao should be very happy now."
Wang Ye moved his hands.
He headed to the equipment warehouse and prepared to set off into the wild.
"I\'ll let him jump around for another two days, and give him a great surprise during the rookie trial."
