Chapter 56: 53: Combat Power Glasses



Click to answer the call.

Mr. Liao’s hologram appeared in front of Lin Yuan.

“Mr. Lin, how are you considering the matter from last time?”

Mr. Liao asked with a smile.

“The matter from last time…”

Lin Yuan recalled.

During the Lin family’s banquet, Mr. Liao, the chairman of the Evolver’s Association, personally visited to invite Lin Yuan to represent Dongning City in the Canglan Star arena competition.

As for the reward…

As long as Lin Yuan managed to rank within the top five thousand in the Canglan Star arena competition, the Evolver’s Association of Dongning City would provide fifty million Yuan as a reward.

Of course, what Lin Yuan truly valued was not the fifty million.

But rather the rewards given by Canglan Star officials for placing within the top three thousand, or even within the top one thousand or five hundred.

There were many kinds of rewards.

Cash, in fact, was the least valuable among them.

All kinds of Cosmic Spiritual Objects.

Many Evolution Paths.

Even treasures of Different Species.

All were included in the list.

Furthermore, exchanging blows with other Evolvers.

For Lin Yuan, that was also a good thing; with his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, he could glimpse the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent’s Evolution Paths.

Although it couldn’t compare to directly reading the Evolution Paths.

If quality was insufficient, quantity would make up for it.

The most important thing was that the virtual world hosted the arena competition.

This was equivalent to Lin Yuan not having to risk anything; he didn’t even need to travel to gain all the aforementioned benefits.

“No problem,”

Lin Yuan nodded.

“That’s good,”

Mr. Liao breathed a sigh of relief internally.

Compared to other Evolvers, Lin Yuan was still a Second Layer citizen.

While the Evolver’s Association could indeed manage Evolvers, they had no control over higher-level citizens.

Therefore, he was exceptionally polite to Lin Yuan, much warmer than he was towards any First Rank twelve-segment Evolvers.

“By the way.”

“If Mr. Lin has time, could you come to the Association tomorrow?”

“There are three other Evolvers who will be participating in the arena competition with you.”

“You could get to know each other in advance. After all, there is a team match in the competition and you will need to cooperate with each other…”

Mr. Liao said cautiously.

“No problem,”

Lin Yuan replied with a nod.

Since becoming an Evolver, the number of other Evolvers Lin Yuan had met could be counted on one hand.

Now presented with the opportunity to interact with other Evolvers, he wasn’t about to let it slip away; who knows, maybe he could gain something from them with his Against-Heaven’s Understanding.

Those who had been chosen by Mr. Liao to participate in the competition were probably all First Rank twelve-segment Evolvers.

Evolution Paths practiced by Evolvers of this level were generally not simple.

After finishing his conversation with Mr. Liao,

Lin Yuan continued to immerse himself in comprehending the “Force Evolution Path.”

Lin Yuan was comprehending the Force Evolution Path, not practicing it.

He was integrating the Force Evolution Path into his own Martial Tao through the way of Taiji,

That is what Lin Yuan was doing.

Comprehending other Evolution Paths certainly did happen among Evolvers, but like Lin Yuan, directly assimilating an entire evolution system was quite alarming to hear.

Yet Lin Yuan was confident about it; firstly, the Taiji Dao was quite compatible with the Cosmic Origin Force.

Secondly, given the exaggerated efficiency of his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, completing this task was merely a matter of time.

Whether it takes months,

or one or two years.

The next day.

Lin Yuan ended a night of practice and got ready to visit the Evolver’s Association.

Ordinary citizens might feel listless the next day without sleep,

but for an almost Third Rank Evolver like Lin Yuan, this was hardly an issue. With the Dao of Taiji and the continuous cycle of Yin and Yang, it was rare for him to be in a bad state.

No matter how great the expenditure, a few cycles of Taiyin and Taiyang would restore him.

“Mr. Lin,”

The security guard at the Shuiyue Residential Complex saluted Lin Yuan with respect upon seeing him.

Those who lived in this complex were invariably wealthy or distinguished.

Moreover, when Lin Yuan initially purchased his residence here, the sales manager Mr. Wang’s extremely respectful demeanor had been observed by many.

Even if unaware of Lin Yuan’s exact status, it was clear he was not someone they could afford to overlook or treat negligently.

Whoosh.

Lin Yuan walked out of the Shuiyue Residential Complex.

A sleek black hovercar was parked on the roadside.

It was indeed the ‘dedicated car’ from the Evolver’s Association.

Waiting outside the Shuiyue Residential Complex from early in the morning.

“Mr. Lin, please come inside,”

A tall man in black got out of the car,

and respectfully opened the door for Lin Yuan.

With current scientific technology, autonomous driving had long been perfected,

but when receiving important guests, real drivers were still often preferred.

After all, compared to cold intelligence, it’s more pleasant to interact with a living person.

The Evolver’s Association.

The twenty-third floor.

Three figures were sitting casually.

“I don’t know what’s gotten into Mr. Liao this time, inviting some unknown person to the competition…”

The figure on the left said casually, his tone clearly dissatisfied.

His name was Cao Rong, an Evolver with impressive Evolutive Talent. He had already reached the level of a First Rank twelve-segment Evolver.

He had participated in several previous competitions, and while he hadn’t achieved any impressive rankings, his performances had been good.

The four Evolvers from Dongning City who were to participate in the arena competition all knew each other quite well.

However, at this year’s competition, Mr. Liao intervened, forcibly replacing one of them and enlisting another Evolver to join the three in the competition.

Cao Rong understood Mr. Liao’s intention; their past performances in several competitions had been poor and he wanted to improve the results by changing members.

But randomly replacing a member with someone unfamiliar could lead to the final results not improving and possibly even declining.

“Since Mr. Liao sees potential, he must indeed have some skill.”

The figure on the right hesitated for a moment before speaking up.

This figure was named Lü Xiguang, a bloodline Evolver, who was now at the First Rank, twelfth segment.

“Hmph.”

Cao Rong snorted coldly.

He then turned to look at the figure seated in the center.

He was the strongest Evolver among the three of them.

“Cao Rong, you make a move later, try to test his limits.”

Zong Bai’s eyes narrowed slightly as he slowly spoke.

In Dongning City, among the Evolvers eligible for the arena competition, Zong Bai was undoubtedly the strongest.

In past arena competitions, Zong Bai performed well, almost breaking into the top five thousand once.

“No problem.”

Cao Rong immediately became excited.

After discussing the new member, they started talking about their own matters.

“I brought back a good thing from Heiwu Star this time.”

Cao Rong took out a pair of black-framed glasses and introduced with a hint of pride, “These glasses are the latest research achievement from Heiwu Star.”

“They can capture minute pieces of information and then provide an approximate assessment based on the combat power.”

“Oh?”

Lü Xiguang looked curious.

Zong Bai also looked over.

“Hehe, let me show you guys.”

Cao Rong put on the black-framed glasses and then looked towards Lü Xiguang.

“Hmm, Xiguang’s combat power is nine hundred eighty-six, which is above average for the First Rank, twelfth segment.”

Cao Rong pressed the side of the glasses and said.

“The combat power of the First Rank, twelfth segment is usually between eight hundred and one thousand one hundred.”

“My combat power is one thousand and three, somewhat stronger than you, Xiguang.”

Cao Rong said quite pleased with himself.

“Take a look at my combat power.”

Zong Bai couldn’t help but speak up.

“Big brother Zong, your combat power, hiss, is actually one thousand and ninety-eight, almost reaching the First Rank’s limit.”

Cao Rong, wearing the glasses, looked towards Zong Bai and exclaimed with slight surprise.

He knew Zong Bai was the strongest among the three of them, but he hadn’t anticipated Zong Bai to be so formidable.

“It seems quite accurate.”

Zong Bai nodded slightly, making a comment.

Recently, he had made further progress on his Evolution Path and was indeed nearing the limit of the First Rank.

He hadn’t told anyone about this, yet now Cao Rong had noticed it, evidently showing the glasses were no simple accessory.

“What is the observation limit of these glasses?”

Zong Bai suddenly asked.

“Ordinary Second Layer Evolvers should be detectable.”

Cao Rong replied.

As it was the newest product and additional functions were still under development, there were many inadequacies in the glasses at the present.

“Second Rank, that’s enough.”

Lü Xiguang remarked with a sense of emotion.

There wasn’t a single true Second Rank Evolver throughout Dongning City, so these glasses were quite practical.

“That’s for sure.”

Cao Rong spoke with a tone of self-satisfaction.

To acquire these glasses, he had paid a significant price.

Naturally, he was extremely happy to be able to show off in front of his friends.

Just then.

The elevator doors slowly opened.

Zong Bai, Cao Rong, and the others immediately stopped their conversation.

“It must be that person arriving.”

Cao Rong immediately felt assured.

Mr. Liao had scheduled a time with them, which was about now.

“Don’t worry, Big Brother Zong.”

Cao Rong took a step out, not forgetting to nod towards Zong Bai.

Soon.

A young man stepped out of the elevator.

“Is this the person Mr. Liao recommended?”

Lü Xiguang scrutinized him carefully.

“Hm?”

After looking for a while, Lü Xiguang felt something was amiss.

Why hasn’t Cao Rong spoken until now?

Wasn’t he supposed to test that person’s limits?

Zong Bai beside him also looked puzzled.

The two of them subconsciously turned to look at Cao Rong.

What they saw was Cao Rong standing rigid, and upon closer examination, it became apparent that his forehead was beaded with sweat.

Even his legs were trembling faintly.

“Th-this…”

Cao Rong’s right hand pressed the glasses, his thoughts in turmoil.

In his view at that moment.

All he saw were the blood-red warning hints displayed by the glasses.

[Extreme Danger Alert: Subject Detected]

[Combat Power: Two Thousand]

[Combat Power: Three Thousand]

[Combat Power: Five Thousand]

[Combat Power: Nine Thousand]

Boom.

The black-framed glasses that Cao Rong was wearing exploded outright.
