Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 1762
1762 Singular Genius!
This! What!? Isn’t this Lin Yuan, who was the chosen lucky member of the audience and defeated Meng Xu during the Allstar Match using a beam of red light without even summoning any feys?
They clearly had the same face, but numerous people on Star Web were unwilling or dared not admit to this fact. There were also many people who had expected this and were not surprised in the slightest.
The people who were unwilling to admit this fact were the fans of Lin Yuan and Black, who had debated and argued with each other.
Black had appeared on Star Web because he had protected Millstone Town using a Class 1 alien insect dimensional rift and became a savior of the Radiance Federation.
!!
There was a rumor that Black had used a healing-type fey at Millstone Town to regrow a person’s limb.
Moreover, Black had always been shrouded in mystery and had even broken a historical record on Star Tower.
All of these made him a bona fide genius.
Meanwhile, Lin Yuan’s appearance had been stunning of meteoric proportions.
Both Lin Yuan and Black had grabbed the spotlight abruptly.
As such, both of them became idolized by a certain group of fans.
But now, the two groups of squabbling fans were realizing that their idols were actually the same person.
Damn it! Does this mean that I’ve been hurling insults at my idol’s other identity for the past six months?
The fans could not help but shrink back their necks in embarrassment. But at the same time, they were also happy as their idols had become even more amazing.
Black and Lin Yuan’s fans had started arguing because they were unwilling to admit that both groups’ idols were equally impressive. They would not have reacted so vigorously if their idols were being compared to someone mediocre.
They would have said something like, “Haha, how dare trash like you dream of standing on the same stage as our idol!”
The members of Star Web who had expected this outcome had felt for too long that Black and Lin Yuan were too similar.
The only point of uncertainty they had was that Lin Yuan and Black had never used the same feys or the same combat methods.
The two of them were so remarkable, especially considering the power that Black demonstrated afterward, that they completely pulled away Chu Ci’s chair at the table. She only had Bronze/Fantasy feys and seemed ordinary in comparison.
As for the members of veteran and top factions who had witnessed Lin Yuan defeat Zong Ze at the Guard Ye Banquet, they were aware of Lin Yuan’s identity.
Thus, they never felt that Black could be compared with Lin Yuan.
However, after Black defeated Lu Shuang, they could not help but look at Black in a new light.
When Black used his sacred source lifeform in the life of death Capture the General against Han Qi, the disciples of top and veteran factions realized Black’s identity then.
Now, all the disciples of top and veteran factions did not have to continue suspecting the truth as it had been verified.
Given that Black had decided to reveal the truth, he had clearly also decided to reveal his true identity.
Hence, these young disciples of top and veteran factions who rarely spoke out on Star Web started to discuss Black excitedly.
One of them accidentally let slip that Black was the Moon Empress’ disciple.
The people who were the happiest when Black’s silver mask disappeared were his longtime fans.
They had been pining to find out the face behind the mask for a long time.
However, many of them held the belief that the features behind the mask would be unpleasant. Why else would he cover them up with a mask?
But Black’s true face blew all of their minds.
All of them had noted his near-perfect bone structure and aura in spite of his masked face.
But after he removed his mask, they realized that his aura and face were also as close to perfect as humanly perceivable.
His eyebrows were sharp, he had a high nose bridge, and his tightly pursed lips were stiff with fortitude.
It was likely that he had a similar expression when he defended Millstone Town against the insect tide.
Zhang Xiaobai, Lu Pinru, Tan Ran, and Xin Ying had been watching the fight nervously.
When they saw Lin Yuan defeat Han Qi and seemingly gain the upper hand over Lu Ou, the four of them could not help but marvel at his rate of improvement over the last eight months.
Back at Millstone Town, his strongest fey had only been Silver grade.
But now, he had reached the peak of the Radiance Federation’s young generation. More importantly, he was only 19 years old.
Now that the four of them were living in the Return from Faraway Mansion, they often had the opportunity to have meals with Lin Yuan. As such, they knew him well.
When they saw his pursed lips, they knew that he was worried and angry.
At the same moment that the eight-tailed white cat slammed its tail at Lu Ou and Qian Yu, the Moon Empress, Bamboo Monarch, Chef Supreme, and the Goddess of Mercy looked shocked.
All of their gazes locked onto Genius.
All four of them were Class 5 Creation Masters, and the Moon Empress even had the capability to be called a Class 6 Creation Master.
As such, they saw through Genius with one glance.
The young man behind the Goddess of Mercy, who had a black candle in his eyes, noticed this and also shifted his gaze to Genius.
However, he did not have Creation Master abilities and could not see Genius’ characteristics. Nonetheless, he knew that this white cat was definitely special.
The Moon Empress inhaled sharply.
Although she could not tell from Genius’ abilities that it had the ability to be a Creation Master, she acknowledged its endless potential.
She also realized why Lin Yuan had such a high Creation Master level at a young age.
The Moon Empress’ gaze snapped to the Goddess of Mercy, and she saw that the Goddess of Mercy was also scrutinizing Lin Yuan.
The Goddess of Mercy raised an eyebrow when she noticed the Moon Empress looking at her.
She flicked her gold and red fishtail, and a look of amusement appeared on her face as she smirked at the Moon Empress.
Murderous malevolence sparked in the Moon Empress’ eyes.
However, the Moon Empress did not know that the Goddess of Mercy was not looking at Genius but Lin Yuan.
For some reason, the longer she looked at Lin Yuan, the more the Goddess of Mercy felt her bloodline throb within her.
Although the movement was not as forceful as when Qian Yu fused with the Diving Songstress and triggered its bloodline, the feeling was more emotive and incited her bloodline’s fighting spirit.
The cat-species fey was walking down the same unbeaten track as the Disaster World Faceless Beast and was evolving in an extraordinary way.
Nonetheless, it could not give the Goddess of Mercy the same feeling as Lin Yuan did.
