National Gardener: I can choose the evolution path of spiritual plants.

Chapter 15 Ranking
Lin Zhi chose the nut, and immediately, a brownish fruit grew out of the virtual source soil on his watch.

The fruit is upright and oval in shape, like a potato, with no roots or branches or leaves, and two eyes on the head.

It has just sprouted and is only the size of a melon seed, and is growing slowly.

As the forest plant used the virtual fertilizer, it expanded rapidly.

It soon grew to be more than one meter tall.

At this time, when the virtual nut grew to the limit of its current state, a mechanical sound sounded in Lin Zhi's mind.

[It is detected that the host's mark can be exchanged for virtual evolution materials. The manual currently provides 7 star-level evolutions + 3 moon-level evolutions. The host can choose 5+1 of them. ]

【Star Level】

[Option 1: Block Expansion]

[Option 2: Sudden increase in self-weight]

[Option 3: Compression-resistant structure]

[Choice 4: Petrification]

[Option 5: Alloy skin]

[Choice 6: Damage Absorption]

[Choice 7: Attack Rebound]

【Moon Stage】

[Option 8: Quick Repair]

[Choice Nine: Melee Attack Slowdown]

[Choice 10: Fatal Immunity]

In the end, Lin Zhi chose expansion in size, sudden increase in weight, pressure-resistant structure, petrified body, alloy surface, and rapid repair.

His positioning of Nut is defense, so he did not choose the two evolutionary abilities of damage absorption and rebound. This is mainly because according to the knowledge he has learned, he knows that the damage absorption of Nut is limited, and the proportion of rebound damage is not large enough.

The other five evolutionary abilities are much better and are very suitable for Nut, strengthening its defense and defense range.

Then there are the three abilities of the Moon Stage. Quick Repair allows Nut to last longer, and Melee Attack Slow can slow down the attack speed of enemies attacking you.

Fatal immunity can make you immune to fatal damage.

However, the melee deceleration is very limited and is only effective against melee physical attacks.

Fatal immunity conflicts with Liu Dazhu's aura ability.

Therefore, the quick repair ability is the most suitable, combined with the powerful defense of nuts, it can block more damage.

By the time we finished all this, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.

"Okay, these two spiritual plants I cultivated, the Moon-grade Vegetable and the Nut." Lin Zhi showed the virtual spiritual plants to Wang Baichuan and the other three.

Wang Baichuan and others almost popped their eyes out when they saw the lifelike virtual spiritual plants on the watches.

"Brother, this is awesome!"

"This is amazing, a moon-level spiritual plant. This is the first time I have seen a moon-level spiritual plant at such a close distance."

"With these two Moon-Rank plants, our ranking is secure!"

……

At nine o'clock in the morning on June 6, the data of virtual spiritual plants were transmitted to the super-intelligent computer at the alliance headquarters through the watch, and then analyzed and compared to calculate the ranking.

Lin Zhi checked the rankings. Wow, the Moon-level Vegetables and Walnuts he cultivated were only ranked 32nd.

The top 157 virtual spiritual plants are all at the Moon Stage.

He couldn't help but sigh. Even with the manual, he couldn't get first place. These ancient families had profound heritage and the peerless geniuses were truly terrifying.

……

At 9:30 in the morning, new content appeared on the watch.

The third exam content: Ladder ranking
Introduction: A transmission channel to the virtual martial arts arena in the center of the primitive world is opened, and all shortlisted candidates will receive initial rankings based on the virtual spiritual plant scores.

Each candidate has 10 chances to challenge the higher ranked candidate, and the winner will obtain the other candidate's ranking and points coupon.

The challenge for candidates is an individual competition. In addition to their own spiritual plants, they can also use virtual spiritual plants that they have cultivated.

Rank in the top 3600 and get a place in the county school.

The remaining 6400 eliminated candidates will be given the right to choose a top-notch university. Tips: The ranking of this exam will determine the candidate's first-year welfare benefits, the right to choose a county school, and the right to choose a tutor.

Lin Zhi turned off the watch screen and started transmitting.

The next second, he and Liu Dazhu appeared in an auditorium-like stand.

As for Wang Baichuan and others, they did not appear in the same place as him.

The audience stands are arranged in a circle, and at the center below is a square virtual martial arts arena, which is divided into one hundred areas and can host 100 challenges at the same time.

At the top of the martial arts arena, there is a huge screen that displays the rankings.

The first to the hundredth place are displayed in gold font.

The 101st to 1000th places are displayed in silver font.

The numbers from 101st to 10,000th are in black font.

At this time, Lin Zhi was ranked 32nd.

Lin Zhi looked at the screen:
First place: Zhao Ritian (Peerless Genius, Red Moon Lower)

Second place: Qian Jin (Peerless Genius, Red Moon Lower)
Third place: Li Jiu (Peerless Genius, Red Moon Lower)
……

No. 32: Lin Zhi (Ordinary, Lower Green Star)
No. 43: Lonely and Invincible (Peerless Genius, Blue Star Extreme)
……

No. 926: Wang Wanren (Peerless Genius, Blue Star Middle)

……

1987th: Zhao Xiaoyun (Superior Genius, Lower Blue Star)

……

No. 9600: Liu Xin (Genius·Luchen Up)
……

After taking a quick look at the rankings, Lin Zhi exclaimed, wow! Nearly 13 of the shortlisted candidates had reached the Blue Star level, and some even reached the Red Moon level. A so-called genius like Long Tengfei, who ranked first in Yujun No. High School, was only an upper-level Baichen.

As for myself, an ordinary gardener, lower in level than Green Chen, ranked 32nd, it was like a sheep among wolves!
Just as he was letting his thoughts wander, a message popped up on his watch.

[No. 1987, Zhao Xiaoyun challenges you, do you accept?

If you choose to refuse, you will lose your points coupon and exchange your rank with the other party. 】

"Accept it. Even if I can't beat him, I'll just give it a try first. Anyway, I can still get 1987th place if I lose."

After a little thought, Lin Zhi chose to accept it.

As he confirmed his acceptance of the challenge, two virtual figures suddenly appeared in the virtual martial arts arena.

One virtual figure of Lin Zhi and one virtual figure of Liu Dazhu.

This is a virtual martial arts arena that collects forest information and then forms it on the martial arts stage.

Lin Zhi thought about it and found that he could control his virtual figure with his consciousness.

He "switched perspective" to the virtual figure and found that it was no different from controlling his own body.

"This virtual martial arts arena is truly magical," Lin Zhi exclaimed. He heard that virtual technology is very mature and has already transformed an inferior world. People don't need their real bodies, but can use virtual figures to adventure and fight in that world.

At this time, at the other edge of the challenge area, the figures of several young men slowly gathered.

"You are Lin Zhi, an ordinary gardener under Lu Chen?"

Zhao Xiaoyun, who was in the lead, spoke in an electronically synthesized voice.

"Yes"

As Lin Zhi spoke, he unfolded the virtual source earth field.

Then, nine virtual blue lands emerged.

What the hell!

Lin Zhi was shocked to see the color of the land being displayed. He didn't expect the virtual martial arts arena to be so cool that it actually collected all the data on the color of his source soil.

You have to know that in the previous battles, he only showed the spiritual plants, and the source soil was hidden.

Lin Zhi was worried about how to explain that his soul was Green Star, but his source soil was Blue Land.

But the next moment, he threw away his worries.
