Evolving infinitely from ground zero

Young geniuses of the Alien Human Level who had left the city for training had all gradually returned to the city.

Lan Tianbai, seeing that it was rare for everyone to be together, gathered all the team members for a brief morning meeting.

...

In a spacious clearing in the woods.

Including Lan Tianbai, a total of 28 people loosely formed a circle, leaning casually against tree trunks or simply sitting in the trees, looking quite at ease.

"Who are those two?"

"Such high attractiveness, they seem even better looking than Earth\'s celebrities."

"Are they the couple that Lord Ye mentioned last time, who he said would be joining the team after a while?"

...

A good number of team members who had just returned from their training had never seen Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan.

Attracted by their good looks, they curiously sized up the two.

Lan Tianbai, listening to the chatter around him, walked over to Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan and introduced them to the others, "This handsome guy and pretty girl are the Earth geniuses Lord Ye mentioned before."

"They only joined the team last month."

"Everyone get to know each other\'s faces, so you don\'t fail to recognize them when you\'re out training."

After briefly introducing Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan like this, Lan Tianbai didn\'t talk about them any further but turned with a smile to look at the two young men at the front—Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao.

"Ah Xian, Taozi, how did the two of you evolve into Rare Level Creatures? Why don\'t you share with everyone?"

Lan Tianbai keenly sensed that the aura of Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao had gotten much stronger.

These two main forces in the team had had a Biological Level of High Level Ninth Order Great Perfection just before this training trip, merely a step away from the Rare Level.

Yet it was this single step that had stumped them for two and a half years, unable to break through.

Unexpectedly, upon returning from this training, both of them had evolved into Rare Level Creatures, which indeed surprised Lan Tianbai, their instructor.

"Actually, there\'s not much to it, we were just a bit lucky, stumbling upon a Blood Spirit Fruit tree in Blood Fiend Valley. There were exactly two ripe Blood Spirit Fruits on the tree, and after eating one each, we evolved to the Rare Level."

Zhao Qingxian spoke with an air of ease.

When the others heard this, their faces immediately showed envy.

Blood Spirit Fruits were precious fruits that even Epic Level Creatures would be jealous of; to think that these two had stumbled upon them, their luck was truly heaven-defying.

Seeing the regret on the faces of the other team members who assumed they had missed the Blood Spirit Fruits because they hadn\'t trained in Blood Fiend Valley, Lan Tianbai said, "Do you really think coming across a ripe Blood Spirit Fruit tree is such a common good fortune in this world?"

"These two guys chose to train in Blood Fiend Valley precisely for that Blood Spirit Fruit tree; do you think they just lucked out?"

"Also, Blood Fiend Valley is full of Rare Level Creatures. Only because these two are skilled and have ample self-protection could they train there."

"If other team members, even Xia Liu who is second only to them, were in Blood Fiend Valley, they would struggle to move an inch, and a careless move could mean death."

"Don\'t think of success as something that comes too easily."

"If someone tells you with a calm face that they succeeded easily, they are most likely bragging."

While saying this, Lan Tianbai suddenly burst out with Qi-Blood, and with an exertion of force that spanned more than ten meters, he blew apart the clothes on Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao, exposing their upper bodies riddled with fresh wounds.

Some wounds were so deep that chunks of flesh were missing, and bones could be clearly seen, which was shocking.

"Do you see this?"

Lan Tianbai looked around and said, "Any success is hard-won, don\'t take it for granted."

Seeing the wounds on the upper bodies of Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao, everyone looked solemn.

They had just been envious of the two, but none of them was envious now, only admiration remained.

If it were them, they certainly wouldn\'t dare to take such risks; instead, they would choose a safer way to obtain evolution resources.

"Lin Zi, that guy Zhang Tao on the left, he\'s so strong. His abdomen is almost torn open, yet he\'s standing there like nothing\'s wrong; if it were me, I\'d have been in agony."

Shen Qinghan whispered to Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen nodded, "Indeed strong. The physique of Rare Level Creatures is extraordinary."

As he spoke, his eyes never left the wound on Zhang Tao\'s abdomen, staring intently at the unhealable blood hole.

He saw that around the edges of the hole, a purple liquid was continuously oozing out to prevent the flesh from regenerating.

Was it poison?

How did he get it?

Exotic Beasts?

Or Exotic Plants?

I wonder if my \'Immunity to Hundred Poisons\' could protect against it.

These thoughts churned in Lin Zichen\'s mind; he was very curious about poisons that could affect the flesh of Rare Level Fighters.

"Zhang Tao, this hole in your abdomen can\'t self-heal; do you want to go to the medical facility and get it treated now?"

Zhao Qingxian looked at Zhang Tao and asked.

Zhang Tao\'s expression remained unchanged, "It\'s just a small hole, no need for special treatment. In a few more hours, once the toxins on the surface have all decomposed, it\'ll heal."

"Cool, that\'s tough."

Zhao Qingxian laughed and complimented, but internally he cursed with annoyance.

Refusing to treat a wound just to show off in front of others; if that wasn\'t foolish, what was?

"By the way, are Xia Liu and the other two still training outside the city? Why aren\'t they here?"

Zhang Tao looked at Zhao Qingxian and asked.

Zhao Qingxian was equally speechless, "You\'re asking me, but who am I supposed to ask? I\'ve just come back from training with you."
