190: Chapter 189 Guidance

After the male Honey Badger was thoroughly beaten up and chased away by the female Honey Badger, it didn't calm down at all.

Looking down from above, Gu Han saw that it was practically in the advanced stages of ADHD, leaving a trail of uprooted flowers and trampled grass everywhere it went.

Before anyone could pay close attention, it had already attacked a Goblin trading caravan.

Now, after the unification of all races, civilization was developing at a rapid pace, and various resources were beginning to be exchanged across the territories of different races, gradually forming a steady flow of caravans.

Gu Han rubbed his temples; this Honey Badger truly was an absolute hindrance to the development of the Divine Kingdom.

If it were allowed to keep causing trouble like this, the Goblin trade routes would paralyze sooner or later.

Before that happened, he first needed to blunt the spirit of this male Honey Badger.

History always repeated itself in astonishing ways, so Gu Han moved his mind and arranged a set of preparations for the Honey Badger.

After careful consideration, Gu Han added a female Troll to the Reproduction queue.

The Troll Race was naturally warlike, thick-skinned and fleshy, with astonishing regenerative abilities. The most crucial part was that this race only recognized strength and wasn't repulsed by different species.

Furthermore, the Troll Race possessed a known transcendental trait [Fighting Keeps You Healthy]; they were born for fighting, and fighting every day was beneficial for physical and mental health. As long as they kept fighting, the Trolls could accelerate their Breakthrough of transcendental Rank barriers.

If this transcendental trait could achieve Awakening, it would fit the habits of the Honey Badger with absolute perfection.

Conducting Forced Breeding between these two would yield a flat-headed troll.

Gu Han touched his chin, already running some deductions in his mind.

The species in the Divine Kingdom were currently too comfortable, especially certain races that lacked a sense of crisis.

The flat-headed troll would first beat the Troll Race into submission, and then go on to bully the vulnerable groups across the entire Divine Kingdom.

Those vulnerable races would naturally be stimulated to seek opportunities to grow stronger. If they were truly beaten to the point of having no temper left by the flat-headed troll, then they deserved to be exterminated.

Afterwards, when the batch of new species promised by Fu Qian arrived, he would cross-breed the Honey Badger and the Dragonman to create a batch of "Dragon Badgers", specifically to act as sparring partners for the Ant-man Race.

While Gu Han was deep in thought, he was suddenly interrupted by a burst of laughter.

"Hahahaha!"

Tang Wuying, who was working nearby, burst into waves of laughter.

This young master always seemed to go crazy while working lately; it was mostly likely because his brain was broken, and Gu Han had gotten used to it long ago.

After laughing for a while, Tang Wuying realized that Gu Han wasn't paying attention to him at all.

He cleared his throat, edged closer to Gu Han, and spoke in a weird, mocking tone: "Hey, don't you want to know what I am laughing at?"

"Not really."

Tang Wuying didn't care about Gu Han's coldness at all and started talking on his own.

"Let me tell you, the teachers at this school are all a bunch of blind fools."

"Look at this crappy rating they set. A farming skill like Ten-fold Harvest was actually rated SSS Rank! Yet a Heaven-Defying skill like my Selective Birth was only given an SS Rank!"

"And so?"

Tang Wuying was full of smugness.

"So this ranking must be inverted! Look, the fewer S's, the stronger the strength! You are an S, and I am an SS, which is enough to prove that this young master's true strength firmly suppresses that white-haired guy!"

Gu Han almost couldn't keep a straight face. "Don't tell me, you really shouldn't say that? There's some warped logic to it."

Tang Wuying snorted and tilted his neck up.

"What warped logic, this is the truth! When this young master advances to Demigod, I'm going to beat that white-haired guy into a pulp! I'll step on his face and tell the instructor Fu Qian that I am the true Genius!"

The more Tang Wuying talked, the more excited he got. "By then, I'll have Fu Qian send me a set of Dragonman cards as well. At that time, I will possess an invincible army of Dragonman Goblins!"

"Are you obsessed with Goblins or something?" Gu Han sighed.

"What's wrong with Goblins? Goblins are my foundation." Tang Wuying retorted.

"Once you get the Dragonman, you're going to use Goblins as the main body to cross-breed with the Dragonman? And churn out a bunch of Goblins carrying Dragon Clan Bloodline?"

Tang Wuying paused for a moment. "Otherwise what?"

Gu Han shook his head, looking utterly disappointed that iron could not become steel.

"You need to look past the surface and see the essence. You've been following me for a month, spending every day in my Divine Kingdom optimizing Titan-grade creatures, and you haven't learned a single thing."

Tang Wuying's face flushed red with defiance. "How have I not learned anything? My current strength is already—"

"Then tell me, out of all the Titan creatures I asked you to optimize, which time was the Titan used as the main body?"

Tang Wuying opened his mouth, and got stuck.

He thought back carefully, and it seemed indeed there was none.

Every time Gu Han asked him to use [Selective Birth] to optimize and cross-breed species, Titan creatures were always used as gene providers.

Yet the offspring born from the cross-breeding not only retained the terrifying strength and size of the Titans, but also perfectly integrated the advantages of other species.

"You think about your Goblins every day, thinking Goblins are numerous in number. Then why don't you think about it the other way around?"

Tang Wuying widened his eyes, as if his train of thought had caught onto something!

"You take the super-strong Reproduction genes of Goblins and optimize them into the Dragonman using your skill!"

Gu Han stared at Tang Wuying. "Focusing on cultivating Goblin-dragons, wouldn't the upper limit be much stronger than your Dragonman Goblins?"

Tang Wuying shuddered all over, as if a bolt of lightning had flashed across his mind.

Goblin-dragon!

Taking the Dragonman as the main body, possessing the physical defense and combat power of a Dragonman, while simultaneously possessing a Reproduction speed comparable to cockroaches!

Although these two had no functional difference after being optimized through skills, and Dragonman Goblins similarly possessed terrifying numerical stats on par with Dragonman Ranks...

The different carriers determined different transcendental upper limits. The numerical stats for a Dragonman advancing to transcendental and a Goblin advancing to transcendental were worlds apart.

Tang Wuying gasped a breath of cold air.

Ever since he discovered that his [Selective Birth] could link with the transcendental traits of Goblins, he had always treated Goblins as his treasure, using Goblins as the base for all cross-breeding.

He had been completely blindfolded by a single leaf!

"I get it! I get it!" Tang Wuying jumped up in excitement.

Gu Han shook his head again, picked up a branch, and drew a circle on the ground.

"Watch closely, this is how Goblins are used. You can completely treat their transcendental traits as a bridge for cross-breeding all species."

"You don't even need to be restricted to a single cross-breeding. As long as your species carries Goblin gene fragments every time they cross-breed, stringing it together like this, like this, and then like this, you take the strongest creature as the carrier."

Gu Han scribbled and sketched on the ground.

"You're still here arguing about S Rank and SS Rank tier comparisons; those ratings are all dead rules. You need to thoroughly develop your skill and let it bring you infinite possibilities."

Tang Wuying stood in place, his chest heaving violently.

He looked at Gu Han, the arrogance and resentment on his face completely vanished.

Replaced by a kind of fanaticism.

The evil demon before him was glowing brightly—no! The person before him was shining brilliantly like a deity!

"Gu Han." Tang Wuying took a deep breath, his tone unprecedentedly serious. "You not being a mentor is truly the nation's biggest loss! I want to ask for leave and go back first."

"Go back for what?"

"Go back and make Goblin-dragons! I have a feeling! I can do this!"

Gu Han slapped his hand to his forehead with a look of exasperation. "You kid really are in the late stages of delusions; you aren't even a Demigod yet, and Dragonmans are merely your hypothesis, what kind of nerve are you acting up!"

"Ah ~ It seems so."
