This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 84: School Opening Assessment Level Development Potential! ?

His whole body swelled rapidly, his height approaching 2.5 meters, his muscles were as tight as iron, and powerful strength surged in his body.

The small panties covering the private parts were stretched tight, veins bulged under the skin, and blood vessels were throbbing.

"Violent Bear, the strength has nearly doubled, and the defense has nearly doubled." Li Ming was panting, but he felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if he had untied some kind of restraint, and he wanted to smash everything.

His gene development progress has reached 70%. After crossing 60%, the development speed slowed down again.

But Li Ming is now rich and powerful. He spent 100 points of metal energy to directly upgrade the two E-level detection devices on his body into D-level gene radiators, each of which increases the development progress by %.

Excluding [Thunder Body Tempering], the overall development blessing has reached 500%, which is equivalent to level ten in terms of development potential. The development speed is still not slow.

The energy level is even closer to 90E. After all, it is a top-level elemental gene seed. At the same energy level, it must be stronger than ordinary gene seeds.

The double blessing of the violent bear form, the regular blessing of the armored four arms, plus the double blessing of [Charged Attack].

The overall amount is five times, and the instantaneous explosive energy level is close to 500E, which has already touched the D-level life form water.

After a moment of familiarization, his body quickly shrank again. He glanced at the time and said, "Take a break. The test will be tomorrow."

……

"Brother Li, Brother Li, don't sleep anymore, it will be late!" He was woken up by Ge Hong early in the morning. The little fat boy seemed very excited.

"It's only five o'clock. Are you in such a hurry?" Li Ming packed up and saw that everyone was ready to go.

"Let's go early to avoid queuing behind." Ge Hong grinned.

"My development progress has reached 100% of F level. Maybe I can strive for the key training class." Zhang Huaiyuan said. This happened in the past two days.

It would have taken some time originally, but he was inspired by Li Ming on the way here. Everyone was concentrating on training, so he naturally didn't want to fall behind.

There were several times when I couldn't hold on, but I couldn't find anyone else to talk to, so I just gritted my teeth and continued. At this time, I was grateful to myself for doing so.

Others were also looking forward to it.

.........

Capital University of Technology occupies an entire island, covering a very large area.

In early October, the sky was a little cloudy and there was a tendency for rain, but the Polytechnic University went out of its way to dispel the clouds and the sky became clear.

When they were sent to the edge of the island, the driver of the hovercraft that brought them here shouted, "You have a bright future ahead of you!"

Several people waved their hands in response, turned around and looked at what was in front of them, all of them were a little stunned.

Everywhere you look, there are people, and the noise reaches the sky.

"This... there are too many people." Ge Hong couldn't help but ask, "Is there so many for ten thousand people?"

"There are people watching the fun, media reporters, parents sending their children to school, and old students. Add up the number of people and it's a lot."

The academy has no gate, only a crystal column hanging from the sky, which projects holographic projections all around to guide the direction.

There are quite a few aircraft-like things shuttling back and forth in the academy, which should be internal transportation.

There is a long queue under the crystal column, registering names. Mixed in the crowded crowd are fully armed city guards with stern expressions, most of whom are F-level life forms.

"Nuo Xing is here! She is really in the same class as us!" Ge Hong shouted, looking excitedly at the place not far away.

The figure was graceful and slender, with a light blue skirt that fell to her ankles, a slender waist and a delicate profile. She just stood there quietly.

Several women gathered around her, surrounding her in the center, but they didn't drive away the others.

"Who is that guy? How can he talk to Nuo Xing with such a lewd smile on his face?" Ge Hong suddenly gritted his teeth.

Ji Ya rolled her eyes: "How can I be slutty? He is so handsome, blond and blue-eyed, very gentlemanly."

"Rosser, an E-class life form, his grandfather was one of the three members of the Blue Star Chairman Committee." Wang Bing said, "It is said that his development speed is over 90%. He should be the most powerful guy in our class."

Rosser was talking to Noxing, as if they were acquaintances, and their conversation was very calm.

Several people lined up and soon it was their turn. It was impossible for Li Ming to register with just a letter of recommendation. He had already contacted Capital University of Technology and his information had been registered.

"Li Ming, right? Jizao?" The staff member in front of him looked up and seemed quite surprised.

The group entered the school. There was a specially designated assessment area surrounded by holographic cordons, and each major had its own stand.

They separated, and Li Ming followed the instructions and found the machine-made stands.

"Uh..." There were dozens of people sitting scattered under the huge stage. When they saw him coming, they all cast their glances at him, then quickly looked away.

"There aren't really that many people..." He shook his head and found a seat to sit down.

not long

"Hey..." A familiar voice sounded in his ears. Li Ming looked up and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Xu Wei?"

"Call me sister. I'm several years older than you." Xu Wei rolled her eyes and sat next to him familiarly, her tight jeans sinking into her black boots up to her calves.

Not far away stood a young man, carrying a lot of bags on his back. He should be an accompanying staff member, looking over here.

Xu Wei said dissatisfiedly: "Why didn't you contact me when you arrived? You didn't reply to my messages. I had to contact Xiao Yutou to find you."

"Oh, do not disturb." Li Ming said, Xu Wei was speechless and sighed: "It's really unfortunate that your report cannot be sent out for the time being."

She stroked her hair and said helplessly, "My original idea was to wait until what Xingyao Company did on Silver Gray Star was exposed and caused a certain amount of heat, and then I would publish it and create a certain amount of public opinion. In this way, the University of Science and Technology should also be biased towards you."

"Maybe I can even get into a key training class."

"But..." Xu Wei snorted coldly, fiddling with his press card:

"I don't know what bargaining chips those bastards at Xingchuang Company used to suppress this matter. If I force the report to be released, I'm afraid it will have no effect."

"It's okay." Li Ming didn't care and comforted Xu Wei instead.

"Don't worry, I will definitely send out this report at an appropriate time." Xu Wei assured. He was very satisfied with his report, which was very topical.

But since it does not contain any hot spots, it would be a waste to release it hastily.

The two chatted for a while, and then Xu Wei went to get busy. The Capital University of Technology's opening examination was extremely eye-catching, and all media would broadcast the entire process live to the entire Blue Star civilization.

While the two were talking, a few more people came and sat down. They sat very far apart and seemed to be quite socially anxious.

.........

Directly above this area, a silver-white platform was suspended. It was quite large and the students looked up from time to time.

Sitting on the stage, Professor Wu, wearing a black and purple suit, sat upright, one hand on the armrest of the seat, and flipping through the virtual screen with the other hand.

"It's the start-of-school assessment again. Last year's assessment seems like it was just yesterday." On the other side, a middle-aged man in a gray and white suit looked a little disappointed.

"Professor Bai, of course it feels like it was just yesterday. Last year's No. 1 student finally became your student. He should be preparing C-level gene seeds now."

The old man sitting next to him was laughing and had a beard.

Professor Bai's face was full of wrinkles when he smiled, but he still said modestly: "Professor Xia, you are joking. We have to wait. It's not that fast. It's only been a year."

"82%, that's indeed fast." Professor Wu suddenly spoke, and the warm atmosphere among the professors was immediately broken.

Professor Bai restrained his expression and said indifferently: "Professor Wu is well-informed. It seems that he is always paying attention to it."

"I've heard of it occasionally." Professor Wu didn't even raise his head as he flipped through the information in his hand: "The Snow Feather Falcon is indeed good, but it's not suitable for him. I suggest you consider the Ice Wing Pterosaur."

Professor Bai said solemnly: "His D-level gene seed is the Wind-beaked Ancient Bee, and the Snow-feathered Falcon is the most suitable."

Professor Wu looked indifferent: "Oh, you read the report of the Blue Blood Biological Research Institute a few years ago. There is an error in that report. If we use the Snow Feather Falcon, then when it reaches Level B, there will be very few gene seeds to choose from."

Professor Bai looked a little embarrassed and annoyed, "Professor Wu, my students don't need you to tell them what to do."

"Ah, ah, both of you, this is all for the good of the children, why bother with tension?" Professor Xia tried to smooth things over, but added, "Professor Wu's achievements in genetic biology are obvious to all, Professor Bai, why don't you consider it?"

It would have been better if he hadn't said this. Professor Bai seemed to be provoked and said loudly: "Everyone knows what he is like. He is a man who seeks fame and reputation and repeats what others say. He has long been notorious, and yet he is still pointing fingers here."

Suddenly, a chill spread here. Professor Wu closed the virtual screen in his hand, slowly raised his head, pushed up his glasses, and smiled: "What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly, can you repeat it?"

Professor Bai immediately regretted his decision, but it was impossible for him to admit his mistake now, so he just stiffened his neck.

"You have tried your best to become professors, but I am a professor because there is no higher title in the University of Science and Technology." Professor Wu fired a broadside. Many professors in the stands looked at him coldly with changed expressions.

"What about me?" A virtual projection suddenly appeared on the main seat in the center. Although his hair was gray, he looked like a middle-aged man.

“Dean Chen…” Several professors seemed to have found a backbone.

"You are better than them." Professor Wu was still nonchalant.

"That's not bad." Dean Chen smiled calmly, "Professor Wu has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. This time when he went to Silver Ash Star, he also eradicated a cancer for the local citizens, which shows that he has a righteous heart."

Several professors sneered, and Dean Chen looked at Professor Bai:
"If it's really like what Professor Wu just said, you have to think about it carefully when you go back. The school has invested a lot of resources, so it's best to take a smooth path of evolution."

"Got it." Professor Bai said with a serious face.

"It's a rare occasion for Professor Wu to come out this time, so why don't you teach the first place this time?" Dean Chen took the initiative to say.

The expressions of the other professors changed slightly. The top few in the assessment were not a one-way selection, but a two-way selection. They all had large local forces on Blue Star behind them and could achieve mutual success.

"I don't care about the ranking. Even if he is the first, it may be a leader on Blue Planet, but it is not worth mentioning at the interstellar level." Professor Wu shook his head: "If I want to train him, I can pile up resources and turn him into a C-level life form."

"It depends on your liking."

Dean Chen's real body was nowhere to be found. His virtual projection said nonchalantly, "Do Professor Wu like those children from Silver Gray Star? After all, you have had meals with them."

"It's so-so." Professor Wu opened the smart terminal in his hand again and began to look through some information.

Dean Chen did not continue to speak, and ordered: "Get ready to start."...

"Rosser, how about it, are you sure you can get first place this time?"

Next to the blond and blue-eyed Rosser, there were a few young people gathered in a circle, including Nuo Xing. It should be a small circle.

There are even fewer people studying this major, which is called Genetic Development. There are no classes required and the only goal after graduation is to become a D-class life form.

It can be said that it is specially prepared for those who don't need to waste time on ordinary majors.

Students in the distance would cast envious and admiring glances at him from time to time.

"He must be number one. His grades, development potential, and actual combat skills are all the best among us." Qi Xing next to him seemed nonchalant, with a smile on his face, and asked, "Old Zhao, are you convinced?"

He asked a sturdy young man with sharp features, who just glanced at him and said nothing after hearing the obviously provocative words.

"It doesn't matter what rank we get. We will definitely be able to enter the special training class." Rosser said calmly.

"That's beyond doubt. The problem is that Professor Wu, who had been silent for many years, suddenly came out this time." Qi Xing recalled:

"I remember when I was a kid, Professor Wu was very popular and was invited by several interstellar laboratories. This was a great honor for our Blue Planet."

Another person sneered: "Times have changed, that is already in the past. For a scholar to have his theory falsified is undoubtedly a shame."

"Heh..." Qi Xing sneered: "Come on, everyone stop pretending. We all know what your parents said."

"It is rumored that Professor Wu's theory of gene purification was not proposed by him, but came from a lost civilization..."

"Qi Xing!" Rosser suddenly scolded, "Don't you see where you are? You are so outspoken."

"Okay, okay..." Qi Xing shrugged and raised his hands: "You are the big brother, you have the final say."

"However, since Professor Wu has come out, he must have some ulterior motive. I'm sure you all have something in mind. Rosser, you better be careful and don't make a mistake."

Rosser remained silent, and the others looked at him and then quickly looked away.

.........

"Hello classmate, I am..."

As time passed, more and more people gathered around Li Ming. Some of them were obviously very outgoing and were looking for people to chat with everywhere.

They were all of similar age and had a lot of common topics, so they quickly became familiar with each other.

"I have loved tinkering with all kinds of mechanical gadgets since I was a child. Those gears and links are so sexy that I can't stop. I don't know why there are only a few people who have such a good major."

The person who spoke was called Yao Rui. His hair was a little messy, he was wearing a jacket, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.

Others also talked about why they chose this major.

"What about you, Li Ming?" someone asked him. Just now, someone spoke to him and Li Ming politely told the other person his name.

"My father runs a repair shop and I've been watching him since I was a child." Li Ming said casually.

"What a coincidence! My father also opened a repair shop. He is a well-known mechanic in our area and has opened several chains." Someone excitedly added: "My father insisted that I choose this major so that I can expand and become stronger in the future."

"What about you? Did your father let you choose too?"

"That's not the case." Li Ming shook his head and responded, "My father is dead."

"Ah?" These young boys were suddenly in a panic. The guy who asked the question turned red in the face and didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

Precisely because they didn't know how to comfort him, everyone was too embarrassed to continue talking to Li Ming. They deliberately ignored him and turned to discussing other things.

"…Customized gene-seed? Is there such a thing?"

Yao Rui shouted loudly, looking surprised.

"You don't know?" Someone explained, "There are no special requirements for fusing gene seeds at the beginning, but it's different when you reach D or C level."

"The gene seed that was fused previously has become one with itself. If the gene seed is not chosen properly, not only will it not be able to continue evolving, but it may even have the opposite effect."

"If you choose it very appropriately, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

He gave a very simple example: "If you have an F-level gene seed that controls the water element, and then choose to fuse the fire element at E-level, it will cause a conflict."

"It's just that it's still relatively weak at this point and not very obvious, but if it continues to be so contradictory later on, it's very likely to cause genetic distortion."

"On the contrary, the power of evolution and combination can be greatly increased according to a certain sequence, which is the genetic sequence."

This man's name is Fang Wuji. He is wearing very exquisite clothes, made of some kind of animal fur, and he has a wide range of knowledge.

"What is a gene sequence?" Yao Rui continued to be puzzled.

Fang Wuji explained: "The gradual fusion of the gene seeds of specific organisms is called a gene sequence. Some powerful gene sequences can produce energy levels far exceeding those of organisms at the same level."

"For example, the Black Knight gene sequence of the Feite royal family and the Ice Phoenix gene sequence of the Itlan civilization are both well-known in our Silver Star Cluster."

"What about our Blue Star?" Yao Rui was curious.

Fang Wuji shook his head: "Each gene sequence is the result of the accumulation of countless people's evolution. It is the core secret that we don't have on Blue Star."

Gene sequence... This was the first time Li Ming had heard of it. He thought to himself that the profundity of the path of evolution was probably far beyond his imagination.

Seeing everyone's gloomy expressions, Fang Wuji said again: "Forget it, we are getting off topic. We are talking about custom gene seeds."

"This is the privilege of the first place in the annual assessment. The Eteran civilization will provide you with a D-level gene seed tailored for you."

"Everyone knows that some D-class life forms have mastered dual-elemental power, but it is extremely rare and only the Itlan civilization can obtain it."

Yao Rui was disappointed: "First place in the assessment? What's the point of that? We are so lucky to be admitted to the key training class."

"Customized gene seeds?" Li Ming took out his smart terminal and looked through the freshman discussion group. He indeed found the news about the customized gene seeds.

Because the information in it was too complicated, Li Ming didn't really look through it, and Zhang Huaiyuan and the others didn't mention it either. They might have subconsciously thought that this thing had nothing to do with them.

"First..." He stroked his chin.

There is no need to explain the benefits of being number one.

However, it always feels too conspicuous and unsafe...

"quiet-"

While he was thinking secretly, a gentle male voice came from the platform. The sound waves spread very evenly. It was not loud, but every student could hear it.

The noise gradually died down and everyone looked up.

"The first item of the Capital University of Technology's opening assessment, the potential test, is about to begin. Please do not run around or move around. Do not panic if anything happens next."

Outside the freshman assessment area, there were reporters broadcasting live and students joining in the fun.

This was especially true for the senior students, who were very emotional and yet felt an inexplicable sense of sourness, because after all, they had also been through that time.

"That's Nuo Xing, so pretty, hehe, she's become my junior schoolmate."

"I heard this class is very good, almost the same as the one five years ago."

"The powerful ones are still a small group, and the vast majority are ordinary people."

The freshman assessment area was silent. Although the sun was scorching, it was refreshing here.

The assessment of new students is divided into three stages. The first stage is the preliminary selection, which mainly determines the development potential.

It has to be at least level 2 excellent to enter the next round of life form classification. The EF level will be diverted at this stage.

This is followed by actual practice, and then a comprehensive assessment is made based on other results.

The development potential assessment does not involve blood tests one by one. If there are 10,000 students here, how long will it take to complete the test? A more advanced method is used.

The warehouse under the silver-white platform slowly opened, and a cube of metal about five meters wide floated out from under the platform and spread out in all directions.

The conical mechanical structure extends into a slender and sharp column.

Four transistor wires were connected to it, and with a humming sound, the base began to charge, and the sharp columns became brighter and brighter.

The dazzling beam of light shot straight into the sky, causing a lot of exclamations, and then a sky curtain dropped down, scanning the area from both sides, back and forth.

"The biological detectors of the Itlan civilization can screen the development potential of living organisms on a large scale, but the error is very large," said Fang Wuji.

"Generally, we choose to test more than ten times to get the average value, and then use colors to distinguish the development potential. We should be able to see it later."

Soon, the testing stopped.

Then a beam of green light descended from the sky and enveloped a student.

This was just the beginning, and a large number of light beams followed.

"Hmm... Not bad, azure light column, third-level development potential, similar to what was measured before." Fang Wuji was enveloped in a white light column.

Looking around, most of it is gray, with only a small part being white, even less cyan, some blue gathered together, and purple in the center.

In the purple, there are faintly two orange beams of light.

"It's rare to see two people with level six development potential." Fang Wuji couldn't help but be surprised, and then looked around, ready to see what development potential his classmates had.

"Yao Rui is white, not bad..."

"Gray, gray..."

In the corner of his eye, his face suddenly froze, his pupils suddenly contracted, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face, and his heart seemed to be gripped, and he couldn't breathe.

A golden beam of light fell behind him on the right!

　It's another day with 10,000 yuan. I hope it's not too much to ask for some votes, hehe
