Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 6 meets the requirements.

Qin Mu never imagined that someone would treat him like this after he came into this world.

This is how you help yourself without expecting anything in return or considering personal gain.

Although Qin Mu saw a lot in the original owner's memories, he never truly experienced it.

"After using the human cell repair agent, you will take a nap, and during your sleep it will automatically repair the damage in your body."

This process will take a while, but after you wake up, the hidden injuries in your body should be almost healed.

Seeing Qin Mu use the human cell repair medicine, Wang Qing smiled with satisfaction and casually placed a bag he was carrying on the table.

"I heard this thing consumes a lot of energy, so you'll probably be very hungry when you wake up."

Here's some food; heat it up yourself when you get home. I'm heading back now; you should go get some sleep.

Wang Qing is very decisive and has a strong military style. He doesn't drag things out and leaves immediately after finishing his work.

Qin Mu originally wanted to mention that his strength had improved, but he didn't have a chance to say it.

"Okay, Uncle Qing, take care on your way."

The human cell repair agent took effect quickly; Qin Mu already felt a slight itch in his body, along with a drowsy feeling.

Without forcing himself to stay awake, Qin Mu saw Uncle Qing off and immediately returned to his room, collapsing into bed and falling asleep.

When Qin Mu woke up again, it was already noon the next day.

The first thing Qin Mu did upon waking was to feel a churning in his stomach. He rushed to the toilet and immediately expelled a large clump of black, unidentifiable excrement.

"Phew, I feel so much better, my body feels so relaxed."

Qin Mu said happily that he felt a sense of clarity throughout his body, and the discomfort in his body seemed to have completely disappeared.

The hidden injuries on his body had been there all these days. Although the larvae had improved their strength and repaired some of the hidden injuries when they evolved into worker worms, the worker worms had also been slowly repairing Qin Mu's body in the past few days.

However, the injury has never been fully healed. Simple exercise is fine, but any sudden flare-up will cause pain and stiffness.

"Gurgle—"

A loud rumbling sound came from my stomach.

"I'm so hungry."

Qin Mu opened the food that Uncle Qing had brought; inside were several boxes of meals.

The dish consisted of a large portion of braised pork, potatoes, and green vegetables.

The braised pork uses meat from a wild boar with a single horn. The large chunks of braised pork look particularly tempting, and just one plate of this meat costs several hundred yuan.

This is an excellent food for replenishing energy.

It's clear that Uncle Qing put a lot of effort into this; he certainly wouldn't want to eat the monster meat himself.

Qin Mu didn't bother to heat it up; he just opened it and started eating.

Although the food had long since gone cold, Qin Mu's heart was burning with warmth. Some things don't need to be said; it's enough to keep them in your heart.

After routinely buying several hundred kilograms of meat for the worker insects, Qin Mu headed straight to the Extreme Martial Arts Hall.

Instead of entering the intermediate students' building, they went to the training room in the advanced students' teaching building.

That's right, after improving his strength, Qin Mu has already obtained an advanced student qualification certificate for himself.

"Komaki, you're here."

Along the way, people greeted Qin Mu from time to time.

In the past few days, Qin Mu has gotten to know many senior students. Although they are not familiar with each other, they at least know each other's names.

The others were very enthusiastic, and the reason is quite simple.

Qin Mu's training, tests, and results are all public; everyone knows that his strength and speed have already exceeded the minimum requirements for a quasi-martial artist.

However, its neural reaction speed is still somewhat lacking.

With such strength, Qin Mu's age gives him a very high probability of becoming a martial artist.

"Qin Mu, let's spar a bit later."

A young man in white robes, wielding an iron spear, spoke as he saw Qin Mu enter.

"Brother Tie, sure, let's spar sometime later."

Upon hearing this, Qin Mu did not refuse.

This young man in white robes is close to a quasi-martial artist in strength and also uses a long spear. The two are evenly matched, and sparring with each other would be beneficial to both of them.

Martial artists need years of training, as well as sparring and even real combat.

After greeting everyone, Qin Mu walked to the punching power testing machine to test his strength once again.

"Boom—"

Qin Mu punched the punching bag.

932kg

Looking at this data, Qin Mu's eyes lit up; his strength had increased by another 20kg.

This is the effect of the human cell recovery medicine. Although its main function is to heal injuries, it has a slight effect on improving physical fitness when used for the first time.

After testing his strength several times, Qin Mu then tested his speed.

27.5 m/s

The speed has also improved somewhat.

Qin Mu walked to the door of the neurological response testing room once again, took a deep breath, went in, and turned on the equipment.

The instrument's muzzle rotates.

Qin Mu stared intently at the cannon muzzle, his body constantly dodging, trying his best to slip through the gaps.

"Peng"

The sound of bullets hitting Qin Mu could be heard intermittently.

Sixty seconds passed quickly.

"Hit 58 times and touched the red light once within 60 seconds, failing the test."

Looking at the data in the center of the instrument, although it was not up to standard, Qin Mu's face showed a hint of joy.

This result is much better than before; it was just a little bit short of passing.

While dodging, Qin Mu exerted his strength continuously and unleashed his power, without experiencing any discomfort in his body.

Clearly, thanks to the human cell repair agent, Qin Mu's internal injuries have been completely healed. He will no longer experience the same pain and stiffness that occurred before when they flared up.

"One more time!"

After adjusting his stance, Qin Mu unleashed his full power to dodge.

"Hit 55 times within 60 seconds, without touching the red light, pass!"

Seeing the word "Qualified" displayed prominently on the instrument, Qin Mu's face broke into a joyful smile.

"Haha, it worked!"

In his excitement, Qin Mu took the test several times in a row, passing some and failing others.

"I still need to train. There are only a few days left until the assessment, so I'll focus on practicing my nerve reaction speed these next few days."

"I just received an injection of human cell repair fluid, and there are still traces of the medicine in my body. I can definitely strengthen my training to fully absorb these medicinal effects."

Qin Mu's eyes were bright.

For the next few days, Qin Mu spent all his time at the Extreme Martial Arts Gym, training until he was completely exhausted before going home.

Qin Mu didn't even bother to pick up his high school graduation certificate, which was issued on the 28th, instead spending the day in intense training.

With such intense training, the results are quite impressive.

Although his speed and strength did not change much, Qin Mu's control over his body improved significantly.

The neural reaction speed is already fast enough to avoid being hit by the red light less than 50 times within one minute. This result is enough to pass the test without any problem.

In the midst of intense training, the end of the month arrived quickly.

"The preliminary martial arts assessment is in one day. Go back early today, get some rest, and prepare for tomorrow's exam."

Inside the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, Qin Mu finished a training session and checked the time.

"Finally, it's time to take the preliminary martial artist assessment. After passing the martial artist assessment, I can start thinking about leaving the city and hatching the insect hive."

Back home, Qin Mu lay down on the sofa.

"With my current abilities, passing the assessment shouldn't be a problem. I should talk to Uncle Qing about it, so as not to scare him later."

Qin Mu thought about it and a smile appeared on his face.

Qin Mu opened his phone, found Wang Qing's number, and dialed it.

"Beep beep beep—"

The call was answered quickly.

"Hey—, Komaki, what's up? I'm still at work."

Uncle Qing's voice came through, along with the roar of machinery.

"Uncle Qing, I have good news. I'm going to take the preliminary martial artist assessment tomorrow."

There's a good chance it will pass, so I'm letting you know in advance.

"What kind of assessment?"

Uncle Qing was clearly stunned.

"The preliminary martial arts assessment."

Qin Mu replied with a smile.

Uncle Qing was shocked. What was going on?

Just two weeks ago, Qin Mu was only an intermediate student!

Now he's a quasi-martial artist?

Although human cell repair agents were used, their main function is to repair injuries, not to enhance strength.

"Yes, Uncle Qing, I have to thank you for the human cell repair serum you gave me. Without that serum, I probably wouldn't have reached my current strength so quickly."

"Haha, this is all thanks to your hard work! Keep up the good work! You'll definitely pass the test tomorrow, haha!"

Wang Qing came to his senses and burst into laughter, his joy overflowing.

After exchanging a few words, Uncle Qing was still busy with work and didn't say anything more.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Mu felt relieved of his worries.

"Once I pass the quasi-martial artist assessment and obtain the quasi-martial artist title, I can prepare to enter the wilderness."
