He can produce some genetic poison mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the strength isn't enough, then make up for it with genes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He at least possesses innate anti-poison capabilities; these genetic poison mists he produced himself cause him no harm, but when used on others...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh heh, if he doesn't step in to save them, then they can just wait for death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once hit by his genetic poison mist, there is no way to detoxify it except with genetic agents. As for nerve toxins, they are nothing compared to genetic toxins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on his experience, without genetic poison mist, as long as he isn't surrounded by Innate experts, killing him is not such an easy task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for a Ninth-Level Gene Cultivator hunting him in his previous life, would he have died?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how strong the Gene Alliance is, it cannot possibly have a Ninth-Level Gene Cultivator, nor can it be stronger than the unique powers of the Changyi Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, if he strikes suddenly, even if the Gene Alliance retaliates, they will only be left eating his dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better safe than sorry; Ding Huan decided to prepare the genetic poison mist before going over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan went to a genetic medicinal herb shop immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needs to buy some more herbs and then continue to rent that genetic laboratory to produce the genetic poison mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three days later, Ding Huan left the Puhai Gene Research Institute No. 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He successfully created a highly toxic genetic agent and diluted it into a spray bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he possesses anti-poison genes himself, Ding Huan didn't even bother to create an antidote.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of genetic poison mist, if not treated in time, can cause the genetic chain to collapse completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan does not believe that anyone other than him can save someone hit by this genetic agent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gene Alliance, now is the time to go and take a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puhai Martial Arts Plaza.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the past, today is even livelier, because today marks the start of the fourth round of the assessment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth round of the assessment is different from the first three rounds; in the first three rounds, everyone could only see the candidates' scores through the plaza's large display screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the specific content and process of the assessment, everyone could not see it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth round is different; the fourth round is a ring tournament, and in a ring tournament, everyone can see the candidates' performance on the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once candidates finish their assessment, they can leave the waiting area at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the first three rounds of assessment, only two thousand candidates remain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the examination venue has also been adjusted; except for the outer spectator stands, the middle of the plaza has been converted into ten rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ring tournament assessment is not about two thousand candidates fighting each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If candidates fought each other, there would be too many accidental factors, which is not conducive to scoring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recruiting five hundred people out of two thousand is a pretty good ratio.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one is unlucky and meets a very strong candidate and fails, it is not conducive to the recruitment goals of the ten great academies of Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, this ring tournament is conducted by fighting against simulated martial arts robots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These martial arts robots basically have the strength equivalent to a First-Level Gene Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Candidates participating in the ten great academies of Blue Star are generally students, so under normal circumstances, it is naturally impossible for them to defeat these robots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a candidate fights a martial arts robot, as long as they hit the robot, the internal sensors will automatically record the score based on the part hit and the strength of the blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a candidate is truly powerful and the damage dealt to the martial arts robot reaches the robot's tolerance threshold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the candidate has a chance to completely defeat the martial arts robot, which is a KO.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if the martial arts robot hits the candidate, scores are recorded as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final score is the score the candidate obtained on the martial arts robot minus the score the martial arts robot obtained on the candidate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one's strength is too weak and they don't know how to dodge, this score can potentially become negative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These results are not released on the spot; one must wait until everyone has finished the ring tournament for the results to be out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yujiang University assessment area remains the focus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the first three rounds of the assessment, the fourth round ring tournament has no soundproofing facilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience can not only see the specific situation of the ring tournament clearly, but can even cheer for the candidates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the three students from Yujiang University were not the first to go up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the first three rounds of assessment ended, the scores of Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Lu Zi did not change at all; they were still first, second, and fourth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the candidates even went on stage, ten martial arts robots were already standing on the ten rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the outside, these martial arts robots look no different from ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chief examiner stood on the middle ring and said loudly, \"I believe everyone knows the rules for the fourth round of the assessment, but I still want to emphasize them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this round of the competition is scored based on attack points against the martial arts robots, that is under the premise of being able to last for ten minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one cannot last for ten minutes, the score will be calculated based on the KO result. Alright, the fourth round of the competition officially begins now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the chief examiner stepped down, the broadcast sounded, and ten candidates whose numbers were called went up to rings one through ten respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the chief examiner issued the command, the ten martial arts robots rushed toward the candidates on the rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fang Chong, this martial arts robot looks very fierce.\" Seeing the speed at which the martial arts robot rushed toward the candidate, Li Wanran couldn't help but feel a bit worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they sparred with each other, it was always just a light touch, never fighting for their lives like these martial arts robots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look closely, these robots look fierce, but they actually have huge flaws.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Fang Chong’s score is not as high as Li Wanran’s, he is more familiar with fighting than she is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a few dozen seconds, someone was blasted off the ring by a martial arts robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those knocked off the ring must have negative scores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many failed students on the sidelines looked at the ferocity of the martial arts robots and couldn't help but ask themselves, if they were on stage, they would probably only be KO'd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just ten minutes, all ten students who went on stage were knocked off the rings by the martial arts robots; not a single person could last ten minutes on stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How are you guys? I feel that ten minutes shouldn't be a problem; I might even be able to take advantage,\" Fang Chong said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have no problem either.\" Aside from being a bit worried at first, after watching the martial arts robots in action, Li Wanran truly had no need to worry given her strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zi chuckled, \"I have no problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition continued; people were constantly being knocked off, and people were constantly going up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as someone was knocked off, or voluntarily stepped down after lasting ten minutes, the broadcast would announce the candidate number and ring number of the next student to go up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two hours later, the broadcast called Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Lu Zi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three were from Yujiang University, with consecutive candidate numbers, and were called at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Student Fang Chong, Student Li Wanran, Student Lu Zi, you must do your best; Yujiang University is your strongest backing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the three walked toward the assessment rings, Yujiang University’s principal, Tan Bei, almost roared it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Yujiang University is now famous, it is not yet time for the harvest; even though he is the only one here, he still has to cheer for his school's three students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Bei seemed to have started a magical prelude; after this shout, the spectator stands suddenly became lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In almost every corner, people were calling the names of Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Lu Zi, cheering for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the cheering from the three's families, it was drowned out in this ocean of sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was Fang Chong, Li Wanran, or Lu Zi, they were still just students; being drowned in honor over the past few days had left them excited and thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, about to step onto the ring for the assessment, amidst this wave of cheering, the three only felt their bodies heating up and their scalps tingling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, they only wanted to rush onto the ring, blast the martial arts robot away with one punch, and show everyone their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan arrived just in time; he was going to find trouble with the Gene Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gene Alliance’s headquarters in Huaxia is in the Dongxun Gene Building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dongxun Gene Building is not far from the Puhai Martial Arts Plaza; Ding Huan planned to first come and ask Fang Chong and the others if they had any details regarding Geng Qianxing before he went missing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he arrived, he heard the sound of countless people cheering for Fang Chong and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing in the distance, he saw that Fang Chong was already fighting the martial arts robot; despite only having two or three months of training, Fang Chong’s basic long fist was quite decent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because it was his first time sparring with a martial arts robot, Fang Chong seemed a bit inexperienced. At first, he was constantly hit by the martial arts robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, after two minutes, Fang Chong adjusted and was trading blows with the martial arts robot; it looked like he wouldn't be at a disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wanran’s situation was similar to Fang Chong’s; after experiencing a period of panic at the beginning, she stabilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zi, however, gave Ding Huan a big surprise; this guy wasn't suppressed by the martial arts robot from the start, but rather, he was suppressing the martial arts robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just two or three minutes, Lu Zi completely suppressed the martial arts robot, forcing it to retreat constantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan nodded; this martial arts robot was set to the level of a First-Level Gene Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To say it compares to a real First-Level Gene Cultivator, it is still far too lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Zi is a solid First-Level Gene Cultivator; with this strength, he could deal with several such martial arts robots at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After watching for a while, Ding Huan stopped watching; since Lu Zi and the others were in the fourth round of the assessment, he would go to the Dongxun Gene Building first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan had only watched half, but the Puhai Martial Arts Plaza had exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't that there weren't powerful people in the fourth round of the assessment; some people had lasted ten minutes before stepping down earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter how powerful they were, they were still being suppressed by the martial arts robots, at most occasionally counterattacking and then trying their best to dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What were they seeing now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the three Yujiang University students went on stage, two students were trading blows with the martial arts robots, and the robots didn't gain any advantage at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most outrageous one was the student on the third ring; what was that student's name again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was actually suppressing the martial arts robot, and his fist techniques were getting smoother as he fought; in just a short time, he had blasted the martial arts robot to the edge of the ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he going to KO the martial arts robot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The audience in the plaza became excited; some people were like they had been injected with adrenaline, screaming \"KO, KO...\" at the top of their lungs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if hearing these people's shouts, Lu Zi’s waist suddenly folded down as if it had been snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd gasped, and some people even covered their mouths in horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they saw the martial arts robot punch Lu Zi’s folded waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was his waist broken by the martial arts robot’s punch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, the martial arts robot seemed to fly up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time everyone saw clearly; it was Lu Zi, who had grabbed the martial arts robot’s ankle at some point and swung it around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst a cheer that reached the peak of enthusiasm, everyone saw the martial arts robot being thrown off the ring by Lu Zi.\u003C\u002Fp>",2159,"2026-06-17T23:21:20.864Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","b4b7708d450d1add43907fcf01c4e154432c30253dc59e8d3a688004e756d4be","after-the-myth-chapter-52","after-the-myth-chapter-50",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-the-myth-cover.jpg"]
