339: Is it possible that I was cheated?

“It’s not that the entry standard is high, it’s that you are too weak right now!”

The White Fatty Old Man saw what Lin Yang was thinking and glared at him slightly.

“Uh… may I ask, senior, what are the specific entry standards?” Lin Yang inquired.

“The minimum entry standard is that one must possess the strength of a ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Warrior. There is no upper limit, as long as one is not over thirty-five years old,” the White Fatty Old Man replied.

“No upper limit? Then, couldn’t those supreme civilizations and Universe Countries send Extraordinary Warriors to participate?” Lin Yang’s eyes widened.

“Hmm? What nonsense are you spouting, kid?” The White Fatty Old Man also widened his eyes, clearly surprised by Lin Yang’s words.

Lin Yang was startled: “Did this junior say something wrong?”

“Extraordinary Warrior contestants? You really can dream.” The White Fatty Old Man scoffed: “You wouldn’t find a single Extraordinary Warrior under thirty-five even if you searched all the Universe Countries. Participate? You really can dream.”

Saying that, the White Fatty Old Man glanced at Lin Yang, mockingly: “It seems you know nothing about Extraordinary Warriors. I really don’t know what Yue You taught you; your knowledge is so lacking, it’s laughable.”

“Uh…” Lin Yang blinked, a bit speechless.

He didn’t know much about Extraordinary Warriors.

But weren’t those words a bit too hurtful?… “Kid, you don’t think that as long as you fuse with extraordinary matter, you can immediately become an Extraordinary Warrior, do you?” The White Fatty Old Man smiled again.

“Isn’t that right?” Lin Yang subconsciously responded.

“Of course not!” The White Fatty Old Man immediately shook his head, then sighed, saying: “Alright, I’ll give you some basic knowledge today. Listen carefully: to fuse with extraordinary matter and become an Extraordinary Warrior, one must first possess the physical quality of at least a Medium Super Gene Warrior!”

“But this is only the minimum requirement. Normally, one usually needs to have the physical quality of a High-grade or even Special-grade Super Gene Warrior to withstand the negative effects during the fusion process when fusing with extraordinary matter.”

“And fusing with extraordinary matter is a rather lengthy process, requiring a gradual fusion with the extraordinary matter. It’s not like taking a Gene Potion, where one injection into the body is all it takes.”

“As for the time spent in the fusion process, although it varies from person to person, it takes at least ten years. For some slower individuals, it may even take twenty to thirty years or even longer to successfully fuse.”

“This means that it’s impossible for an Extraordinary Warrior to appear under the age of thirty-five!”

Speaking of this, the White Fatty Old Man paused, looked at Lin Yang, and continued leisurely:

“The prerequisite for becoming an Extraordinary Warrior is to possess the physical quality of a Super Gene Warrior, but a Super Gene Warrior also cannot be achieved by directly taking a Super Gene Potion.

“An ordinary person’s body is too weak; even if injected with a Super Gene Potion, their body would explode from the potion’s power. They can only become a Medium Gene Warrior first before being able to receive a Super Gene Potion injection.”

“And although the effect of a Medium Gene Potion is much weaker and can be used directly on ordinary people, it also has a very high mortality rate.”

“Therefore, whether it’s the supreme civilizations or the Universe Countries, they cultivate their seeded contestants very steadily, because many contestants are relatives and descendants of their respective high-ranking officials, and they will not risk rushing things.”

“They all start by exercising their bodies from a young age, mastering various combat techniques. Only after adulthood do they begin injecting ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potions. After fully absorbing the effects of the ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion, they then continue to inject Medium Gene Potions.”

“Similarly, only after fully absorbing the effects of the Medium Gene Potion can they continue to inject Super Gene Potions.”

“In this process, the time to absorb the ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion is the shortest, only one month, which can be ignored. But starting from the Medium Gene Potion, to fully absorb the effects of the Gene Potion, it takes at least two years each time.”

“Medium Gene Potions have initial, medium, and high grades. By the time one becomes a High-grade Medium Gene Warrior, they are already twenty-two years old. Even if they seamlessly continue to inject ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Super Gene Potions, it will take five to eight years to fully absorb the effects and become a Primary Super Gene Warrior. At this point, they are already at least twenty-seven years old.”

“With the remaining eight years, becoming a Medium Super Gene Warrior is the limit; it’s impossible to further advance to an Extraordinary Warrior. There simply isn’t enough time. No matter how talented or monstrous one is, there’s no way to become an Extraordinary Warrior before the age of thirty-five.”

“Now, do you understand why this old man said that an Extraordinary Warrior would not appear in the competition?”

The White Fatty Old Man quickly provided Lin Yang with knowledge about becoming an Extraordinary Warrior and various Gene Potions.

Lin Yang noted it all down and said gratefully: “Thank you for informing me, senior, this junior understands!”

After hearing these words, he realized that his previous remarks were indeed a bit of a joke. He had always thought that fusing with extraordinary matter could also be successful in an instant.

Then he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. It was also the first time he learned that Gene Potions actually had so many Level classification (levels of division) and usage restrictions.

The last time he received a Gene Potion from the system, the system didn’t tell him so much.

Then Lin Yang thought of something else. This old man said that absorbing the effects of the ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion would take a month.

But he himself seemed to have only slept for a day or two that time.

After thinking for a moment, he directly asked this question.

Although his current physical quality was very weak in the eyes of this old man, the old man could definitely tell what level his physical quality belonged to.

Obtaining a ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion was also not something that needed to be kept secret.

The White Fatty Old Man heard this and looked at him with some surprise: “With your weak physical quality, you’re telling me you’ve used a Gene Potion, and you only slept for two days to absorb its power?”

“…” Lin Yang was instantly speechless.

No.

Was he that weak?

That potion had improved his physical quality by five times, and it was all-around!

Seeing his speechless expression, the White Fatty Old Man also seemed a bit speechless:

“Even the most garbage ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion can improve physical quality by ten times after consumption. Your current physical quality is at most five or six times stronger than an ordinary person. You’re telling me you’ve used a Gene Potion? Are you sure you’re not joking?”

“Ah? Can a ChuDeng (Initial-Stage) Gene Potion improve physical quality by ten times?” Lin Yang was stunned.

“Nonsense, otherwise how could it be worthy of the four words ‘Gene Warrior’?”

The White Fatty Old Man couldn’t help but roll his eyes at him: “Your physical quality, which is five or six times stronger, can be achieved through training. Only by improving it ten times will the body’s functions undergo a qualitative change, and only then will it be worthy of being called a Gene Warrior!”

Saying that, the White Fatty Old Man even asked suspiciously: “Kid, you weren’t tricked by an unscrupulous merchant, were you? Did someone sell you a defective product?”

“Uh…”

Lin Yang was also a bit confused upon hearing this.

The system gave him a defective product?

That’s unlikely, right?

First, an apology. Today is one update, I’ll make it up tomorrow. Tomorrow, not a single word less than six thousand characters!

If there’s one less word, you can come and hit me!

But, no hitting the face!

I still need my face to make a living!

Today, I’ll shamelessly ask for some votes. I’m a bit embarrassed to ask.

Cough, cough…
