My Genes Can Evolve Limitlessly - Chapter 22
Chapter 22: Let Brother Yuan Profit Again
Translator: Lordbluefire
The youth didn’t give Lu Yuan any excess time to feel touched. He smiled. “The goods have been received and money has been sent over. If you have more materials, please continue to look for me. I definitely won’t swindle you.”
“Since you said that, I will look for you if I have more stock in the future.”
Lu Yuan smiled.
He felt that this boss that barked like a dog was quite interesting. He had successfully drawn Lu Yuan’s attention.
It wouldn’t be too bad to look for this boss in the future.
After leaving the Kuang Lang Material Shop, Lu Yuan went to the shopping district and replenished his necessities.
If it wasn’t for him having flammable oil and ropes back then, Lu Yuan would basically have no way to get that treasure chest.
Necessities were really very useful in special situations.
Naturally, these items could only be used in low-leveled areas. If he was facing high-graded ferocious beasts, these items wouldn’t have much effect at all.
Other than replenishing the necessities, Lu Yuan also bought new items such as tents and sleeping bags.
The amount of time one could stay in the Land of Origins had a direct correlation with one’s strength.
For the first time, because everyone had just awakened, they could only stay there for 24 hours.
But for the second time, the amount of time would be determined by one’s strength.
Given Lu Yuan’s current strength, it wasn’t a problem for him to stay there for a few days. Most probably, he would have to spend the night in the wilderness at that time.
So, he still had to prepare things like tents and sleeping bags.
Luckily, Lu Yuan’s current strength had improved somewhat. As his strength increased, the battle tattoo space also became larger, roughly about two meters wide now. However, it was still a little difficult if he wanted to load everything inside.
Because he had to buy more items.
The amount of money he had to spend would naturally be more.
Before the $15,000 could grow warm in his hands, only $4,300 was remaining.
Seeing the money in his hands, Lu Yuan suddenly felt very poor.
If he wanted to relocate from the slums and stay elsewhere, the path to reach this goal was still a long one with heavy responsibilities.
He drew in a deep breath and decided that he definitely had to move away next time.
After leaving the shopping district, Lu Yuan returned to the slums.
The small incident in the morning didn’t cause any commotion in the slums at all. The ordinary people there still lived their lives as per usual.
Since it was on the way, Lu Yuan went to the Daming Dojo.
“Brother Yuan!”
“Brother Yuan, you came? Why are you so late today?”
“Brother Yuan, I heard you entered the Land of Origins? How is it? Don’t tell me you died and were forced to exit?”
Just after he entered the Daming Dojo, cheers gushed forth like a heatwave toward him.
The dojo members all respectfully nodded their heads and greeted Lu Yuan when they saw him.
There were even people joking around.
Their attitudes were completely different from when Lu Yuan first came.
It was because during these few days, Lu Yuan’s performance had won the respect of everyone.
He smiled and greeted those who nodded their heads at him as he headed into the depths of the dojo.
Little Tiger was currently hitting a metallic boxing frame.
His huge fists slammed into the metallic frame and caused loud thudding noises to echo out. Parts from the metallic frame sank in from the huge impact.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan walking over, he paused and used the towel he hung on the frame to swipe his sweat before walking over.
“Ah Yuan, why are you so late today?”
“I went to sell some things.”
Lu Yuan turned and stared at the surroundings as he asked in some bewilderment.
“Where’s Brother Ming? Why don’t I see him?”
Usually, Fu Langming would box here, but Lu Yuan didn’t see him today.
“Oh, Brother Ming? He went out last night and hasn’t returned yet.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan started. He couldn’t help but ask doubtfully.
“Went out last night? What happened?”
“I also have no idea. However, Brother Ming would occasionally head out, and his trip would either sometimes last for a few days or he would be back the very same day. As to what happened, I’m not that clear either.”
Little Tiger slammed his fists together and grinned as he looked at Lu Yuan.
“Come, let’s spar on the stage?”
Lu Yuan stared at Little Tiger in a strange manner.
“Are you sure?”
“Why? I feel that my improvement during these two days is extremely evident. Don’t tell me you don’t dare?”
Little Tiger stared at Lu Yuan provocatively and even pointed a middle finger.
Looking at this scene, Lu Yuan couldn’t hold back his laughter anymore.
“Since you have put it like this, I shall accompany you to train. Let’s make things clear first. I have some improvements after entering the Land of Origins last night.”
“For the first entry, you can at most stay there for 24 hours. How much can you improve? Do you think I don’t know anything and can be swindled easily?”
Little Tiger didn’t care about this at all.
When Lu Yuan saw Little Tiger’s expression of disdain, he furrowed his brows.
“Let’s get up on stage.”
The two of them then walked toward the stage.
There were currently two muscular dudes boxing on the stage and even some members in the surroundings.
However, upon seeing the arrival of Lu Yuan and Little Tiger, everyone opened up a pathway for them.
“Brother Yuan, you have come!”
“Little Tiger is here too? Are you guys…planning to fight for one round?”
When one of the muscular dudes saw the two of them, he felt somewhat uncertain.
Little Tiger folded his arms across his chest and grinned.
“This is my revenge battle. You guys shall see how I, Little Tiger, will beat this brat up so badly that he has to be hospitalized!”
After hearing Little Tiger’s words, the eyes of everyone brightened as they cheered.
“Oi oi, the two of you quickly get down!”
“Yeah! Why are you two not letting Brother Yuan and Little Tiger use the stage yet?!”
The two muscular dudes on the stage weren’t angry either. Under the urgings of everyone, they hurriedly leaped off the stage.
Everyone cheered and urged Lu Yuan and Little Tiger to head up quickly.
Hence, the two of them went up the stage and faced each other.
The people below started discussing.
“Eh? Who do you guys think will win?”
“Is there still a need to say this? It’s naturally my Brother Yuan!”
“Your Brother Yuan is fart! Clearly, my Brother Tiger will win, okay?!”
“Although I know that Little Tiger has been training very hard recently and has improved a lot, I will still choose Brother Yuan!”
“Isn’t this clear? Brother Yuan is a gene fighter and he entered the Land of Origins yesterday. From Brother Yuan’s appearance, it’s evident that he left there alive, so his improvements would naturally not be little.”
A burly dude couldn’t help but speak up for Little Tiger. “Wait, don’t tell me almost none of you feels that Little Tiger can win? Isn’t Little Tiger a little too pitiful?”
“Could it be that you feel Little Tiger can win?”
The burly dude scratched his head and laughed dryly. “Cough…naturally I believe in Brother Yuan!”
“Che!”
Everyone pointed a middle finger at him.
On the stage, Little Tiger and Lu Yuan could naturally hear the discussion down below.
Hence, Little Tiger’s simple and honest face revealed a grim expression as he felt extremely depressed.
Lu Yuan couldn’t help but find this funny.
“Come on.”
“Hmph! Brat, I will show you the result of my training for these few days!”
Little Tiger roared in rage and lunged toward Lu Yuan. His momentum was like a ferocious tiger descending its mountain.
Compared to a few days ago, he had indeed improved.
However, Lu Yuan’s face was expressionless. There were also no fluctuations in his heart.
This bit of improvement was considered negligible to his own improvement.
He lifted a finger and blocked Little Tiger’s punch.
Little Tiger’s fist, which was imbued with the force of wind from his punch, slammed into an unbreakable wall and came to a halt.
At this moment, Little Tiger opened his eyes wide and stared at the finger blocking his fist. His entire person froze.
He was dumbstruck.
When the people below saw this scene, all of their eyes widened. The atmosphere fell dead silent.
A moment later, someone exclaimed in shock.
“Damn! My Brother Yuan is the strongest forever!”
“He actually uses a finger to block such a ferocious heavy punch! Is my Brother Yuan still human?”
“Brother Yuan wasn’t that strong yesterday, right? Could this be the improvement he gained after entering the Land of Origins?! Isn’t this too much of an exaggeration?”
“Despicable…we let Brother Yuan profit again.”
Everyone was shouting and cheering. There was even a hint of worship in their gazes now.
They originated from the slums, so the people training in the dojo were actually very pure.
If you had strength, you would be respected.
If you were strong enough, people would worship you.
After all, in a region like this that was covered in darkness, the law was useless and strength determined everything.
And Lu Yuan only used a few days to gain strength that the vast majority of dojo members would find hard to obtain.
Since that was the case, he naturally obtained everyone’s worship.
This was so even though Lu Yuan was much younger than them.
On the stage, Lu Yuan stared at the dumbfounded Little Tiger as he smiled.
Pushing with his finger, he made Little Tiger retreat continuously until he reached the edge of the stage, almost falling down.
Lu Yuan smiled as he looked at the shocked Little Tiger.
“Do you still want to continue?”
Little Tiger fell silent before shaking his head with a bitter smile.
“No need, no need. I’m not your match.”
He was still somewhat depressed as he looked at Lu Yuan. He scratched his head in puzzlement.
“Strange, how did your strength improve so fast? Is the Land of Origins so magical?”
Lu Yuan answered with a straight face, “This is the result of my own hard work.”
Actually, he didn’t use his full power. Let alone full power, he didn’t even use one-third of it.
The improvement yesterday was simply too great.
The reason why he used one finger was that he was afraid he might accidentally fail to hold back and cripple Little Tiger.
