Chapter 196: Successful Monster Genetic Modification

In the VIP seats, Qin Chuan used his divine consciousness to observe the black-robed person known as Invisible Snake.

There was a beautiful woman under the black robe, but this was not her true appearance.

Her beautiful appearance was just a cover, and her true appearance was extremely ugly.

Her entire body was covered in black scales, her face was full of wrinkles, and she had sharp teeth. This wasn’t what a normal person should look like. Instead, she seemed more like a genetically modified person.

In this Martial Arts Conference, more than 90% of the foreign teams had undergone some form of modification.

Hence, it would not be strange if they were genetically modified.

However, Qin Chuan could sense a familiar aura from this person.

It’s similar to the experimental subjects… Is it monster genes? Qin Chuan thought to himself.

Ever since the experimental subjects incident, the experimental subjects had already spread all over the world.

Their abilities were too strong, so they had conquered many cities.

Furthermore, the experimental subjects were brutal by nature. Although they were genetically modified humans, they were inhumane.

It seemed like they were only born to destroy humans. Once they discovered the aura of humans, they would frantically charge until they destroyed them.

Right now, taking care of the experimental subjects was the most serious challenge humanity was facing.

Qin Chuan was also interested in the experimental subjects, so he specially brought some back for research.

After some research, he realized that the human genes in the experimental subjects were being devoured and assimilated by the monster genes.

At this rate, all of the human genes would be assimilated into monster genes sooner or later.

In that case, in a sense, the experimental subjects could be considered as super small monsters.

The people from the Yun Country had messed up quite royally.

Now, the people of Yun Country were like street rats that everyone wanted to beat up. So they did not dare leave the country at all.

Qin Chuan carefully observed the black-robed person. Although the monster’s aura was concealed very well, he still discovered it.

However, this was not the strangest thing. What puzzled Qin Chuan was why this person did not become like the experimental subjects when she had the genes of a monster in her body.

Qin Chuan wondered if Invisible Snake had achieved some balance between the human genes and the monster genes.

If that was the case, it meant that the Yun Country had successfully developed a genetically modified person using monster genes.

After which, Qin Chuan used the Aura Examination Technique. That person’s aura was exactly as Wang Zhixing and company had described, but it was extraordinary.

Judging from the size of her aura, she was even stronger than Wang Zhixing and others.

The average level of Wang Zhixing’s team was the sixth level of Qi Refinement and above.

Among the human experts in the present world, they weren’t the best, but very few could defeat them.

Through the genes of the monsters, the black-robed person had reached such heights. The technology was quite strong.

Although the aura of the black-robed man was stronger than that of Wang Zhixing’s group, the difference wasn’t too great.

Wang Zhixing’s team cultivated the path of immortality, and they also studied combat. So Qin Chuan was quite confident in them.

…

Soon, all the participants of the conference gathered.

The host introduced each team.

When the participants of the martial arts families were introduced, the audience was exceptionally lively.

When the outside teams were introduced, the entire arena booed. They were especially unpopular.

The competitors from outside grew displeased, especially the genetically modified people.

“Hmph! A bunch of frogs in the well. Later on, I’ll crush you guys and make you submit to my iron fist.”

They were itching to fight.

About an hour later, all the participants were introduced.

Next was the opponent selection round.

As there were too many participants, the traditional drawing of lots was no longer applicable.

Since it was the age of technology, the martial arts conference would be electronically matched up.

The host brought a tablet.

The representatives of each team came over to choose their teams.

“The Liu family versus Naipna!”

“The Wu family versus the Comsanta!”

“The Yuan family versus Mud Crow!”

“The Cao family versus the Shui family!”

…

The host announced the assigned teams.

Their emotions surged when the audience heard that their families were facing off against the outside teams.

“Come on, Liu family! Beat all these foreigners up!”

“You can do it, Wu family! You guys are the same! Beat up all those foreigners until their teeth fall out!”

“Yuan family, you can do it. Don’t fall behind. Beat those foreigners until they start doubting life.”

…

The descendants of the various families shouted in the audience.

In the VIP seats, the Patriarchs were all smiling.

This was because all of their family clans had managed to avoid the Immortal Sect and Yun Country’s Disaster.

“Guest Elder Qin, what do you think of these genetically modified people? Are they a threat to traditional martial arts?” A Patriarch asked.

“Based on the rankings and performance in the elimination competition, the top 30 participants are still quite capable. I hope that all of you will not let your guard down.”

Qin Chuan spoke the truth. Through his observation using the Aura Examination Technique, many genetically modified people had auras equivalent to that of martial Grandmasters.

On the other hand, the martial arts families did not have as many Grandmasters as the genetically modified ones.

However, judging them by auras was just a reference. It was not enough to show their true combat strength.

Although martial cultivation was slightly inferior to immortal cultivation, it was still very profound and powerful.

For example, the Land Immortals that were often talked about in martial arts should be on par with the capabilities of Golden Core cultivators.

Therefore, martial arts should not be underestimated either.

…

The martial arts competition was held in the afternoon.

The first match was between the Liu family team and Naipna.

The Liu family didn’t specialize in martial arts but in medical skills.

Their family’s martial arts technique was called the “Shadowless Acupuncture Technique.” It could both heal people and hurt people.

Anyone from the Liu family had trained their fingers since they were young. The highly skilled members could easily penetrate two to three centimeters of steel with their fingers.

If it was a human body, the results would be terrifying.

From this, they could not be underestimated.

Qin Chuan looked at the Liu family team’s opponent—Naipna.

Naipna was ranked 40th in the rankings of the elimination competition. Their strength was average.

They were brawlers with rich combat experience. To defeat Xia Country’s martial arts, they had genetically modified their bodies.

After the elimination competition ended, they underwent a deeper level of genetic modification, and they greatly improved their strength.

Using his Aura Examination Technique, Qin Chuan could tell that the auras of both parties were similar. This battle should be very interesting.

Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

The anticipated battle was about to begin.

The seats were already filled.

Other than the descendants of the various families, there were also people from all walks of life in Xia Country’s martial arts.

Due to the special nature of this Martial Arts Conference, everyone was looking forward to the upcoming match.

The contestants from the Liu family team and Naipna arrived.

The audience started to get excited.

Almost everyone was cheering for the Liu family team.

This was the home-ground advantage.

Following that, the referee arrived with a translator.

After the referee explained the rules of the competition, both sides retreated about ten meters.

They waited for the command to begin.
