Super Gene Hunting Ground

Gao Lou, Chen Cangshan, Yelu Caiyun, and others had all attended some local genetic evolution training schools before, so they understood some basic knowledge and wouldn’t be foolish enough to come to Flying Leopard Academy’s library to look up these basics.

After all, this basic knowledge doesn’t significantly help enhance specific genetic evolution.

People rarely come to the first floor of the library to read, leaving the vast space usually occupied by just a few dozen students.

Gao Lou had gone to Yang Xiao’s dorm several times, but each time didn’t find him there.

”Damn it, what’s going on? Where did that kid Yang Xiao run off to? Even Bing’er is missing. This little girl should have been staying in the dorm, right?”

Chen Cangshan and others held a gathering to bring together the 22 students who entered the academy at the same time to socialize.

Gao Lou attended the gathering, but Yang Xiao was notably absent.

”Gao Lou, aren’t you usually hanging out with Yang Xiao? Why didn’t he come?”

Chen Cangshan asked.

”I don’t know, I’ve been looking all over for him. Since he entered the school, he’s disappeared. It’s been more than a month, I’ve looked for him five or six times, and haven’t caught sight of him. I haven’t even seen the little Bing’er who usually hangs around him.”

”That’s strange. I also went to his dorm once and didn’t see him.”

Chen Cangshan was puzzled.

The twenty-some people at the gathering inquired with each other, but none had seen Yang Xiao.

...

”Bing’er, how many books did you read today?”

”I read about twenty today.”

”Did you just casually flip through, or did you read them all carefully?”

”I read them carefully. If you don’t believe me, test me.”

Bing’er proudly raised her head.

Ever since she came to Flying Leopard Academy’s library, she discovered this talent for having an eidetic memory.

Actually, Bing’er had mentioned her good memory to her grandfather, but back then, she spent her days helping him sell sweets at a stall or moving bricks at construction sites. Such a skill seemed entirely useless, and no one cared.

The only perk was that Bing’er could remember the names of customers she’d seen only once and could call out their names if she saw them again by chance.

Now it’s different. Bing’er is sitting in the library, immersed in the ocean of knowledge. Although she hasn’t activated her genetic evolution system yet, gaining more knowledge is very meaningful for her.

In the thirty-plus days in the library, Bing’er has already read hundreds of books, and all this knowledge is deeply imprinted in her mind.

Bing’er can now engage in very professional discussions with Yang Xiao and sometimes even point out his mistakes, which gives her a great sense of achievement and boosts her confidence significantly.

Yang Xiao looked at Bing’er seriously and patted her head, smiling:

”Of course, I believe in you. Keep reading well, and when you eventually read all the books in the library, you’ll surely become an exceptional talent.”

”Really?”

Bing’er hadn’t expected Yang Xiao to praise her like this and value her ability so much.

”Of course,”

Yang Xiao nodded,

”Knowledge is power. You have a photographic memory now, something many people desire but can’t have.

Think about it: after a year or two, once you’ve finished all the books in the academy, you’ll be the most knowledgeable person at Flying Leopard Academy. Isn’t that something remarkable?

Maybe by then, the dean will personally come to see you.”

”Alright, I’ll definitely study hard and remember all the books,”

Bing’er said excitedly.

...

At the academy, Gao Lou and others quickly immersed themselves in specialized genetic evolution training, each spending a million Crystal Coins on a genetic map analysis.

The academy’s experts would tell them, based on analyze results, roughly how much potential their genetic evolution space had and what targeted training could best enhance their evolution speed.

Additionally, each person’s genetic characteristics differ, so which cultivation skills should be prioritized to make the most of their genetic attributes?

Every person has genetic attributes with biases: some lean towards Strength, some towards Agility, some towards Defense.

Moreover, in terms of elemental attributes, each person’s strength in the Fire, Ice, Wind, Electric, and Poison elements varies.

With professional analysis and guidance, they can better leverage their genetic traits.

Gao Lou’s genetic trait leans toward Strength, so he focuses on learning strength-based cultivation skills.

...

Three months into the academic year, the new student counselor Xiao Ling gathered the twenty-some people, including Chen Cangshan, for a small meeting to learn about their current lives and studies.

”Master Xiao, everyone is here except for Yang Xiao.”

Chen Cangshan, as the organizer, reported to Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling’s face turned cold,

”Didn’t you inform him?”

”No?”

”Why?” Xiao Ling’s tone suddenly intensified.

Chen Cangshan immediately explained:

”I can’t find Yang Xiao. None of us can find Yang Xiao. We have no idea where this guy has gone. Since the day he started school, it’s like he’s vanished into thin air, nowhere to be seen.”

Xiao Ling was silent for a moment, then said:

”Forget it, don’t bother with him. He’s just here to pass the time anyway. Let’s start today’s meeting. Have you encountered any problems in your life, studies, or cultivation recently?”

...

Yang Xiao and Bing’er woke up early and came back late every day, mostly spending their time in the library.

They even prepared food in advance, storing it in a Space Ring to eat when hungry, sometimes even spending the night in the library.

Chen Cangshan and the others never went to the first floor of the library, so naturally, they didn’t run into Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao realized he had never been so eager for knowledge.

The more books he read, the more he understood the various conditions for genetic evolution in greater detail. His instincts told him that he was getting closer and closer to finding the answers he sought.

And Bing’er had turned into a little academic bad girl, ravenously devouring all sorts of books in the library like a lonely bread-craving fiend.

If someone walks through a forest, they’re unable to comprehend the forest’s overall situation.

Previously, Yang Xiao was like an explorer walking through the forest, able to see the tall trees, various alien beasts, and wildflowers, but lacking an understanding of the entire forest.

The more he read at Flying Leopard Academy’s library, the more he understood the forest of genetic evolution as a whole.

Just like he was slowly rising in a helicopter, gradually gaining an overview of the entire forest.

With increasing distance of perspective, Yang Xiao found himself standing at the height of space, starting to glimpse the whole Earth, realizing it was a sphere, not just a series of fragmented rivers, forests, mountains, and plains.

...

Xiao Ling arrived at the first floor of the library. She is now at the Empire Level Gene Primary Realm; based on her own estimation, reaching Empire Level Advanced in her lifetime would be hitting the ceiling.

She graduated from Flying Leopard Academy two years ago and chose to stay and work here.

She loved the environment, especially as a staff member of the academy, she could freely read various books and even access some high-level important books, which were usually not available to ordinary students.

Xiao Ling recently felt she had encountered a strange bottleneck in enhancing her genetic evolution, possibly due to her insufficient comprehension, which made it hard to precisely interpret some Secret Technique Manuals.

Xiao Ling tried many methods and finally concluded that perhaps her foundational knowledge was insufficient, so she decided to come to the first floor of the library to read up on basic knowledge about genetic evolution, seeking a new path for cultivation.

Xiao Ling arrived at Flying Leopard Academy at fifteen and has been cultivating for eight years now. Truth be told, she seldom came to the first floor of the library to read basic knowledge.

...

Yang Xiao had been reading in the library for four months. As he read more, his mind became increasingly clear; a once muddled state of partial understanding began to change.

Simply put, Yang Xiao’s brain, once a muddled mess, was now becoming a clear spring, even beginning to transform into a crystal-clear crystal ball.

He picked another book from the shelf, read for about half an hour, and suddenly his mind buzzed as a ray of light flashed through his mind.

Yang Xiao was startled, immediately focusing inwardly, surprised to find the Wisdom Attribute among the Four Attributes emitting a faint glow.

A message appeared in his mind:

”Wisdom Attribute can increase by 1 point.”

Holy crap, what’s going on? Could it be that reading can increase the Wisdom Attribute?
