He had to take this train because it was the fastest way to Yiling City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just happened to be off by these few minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s identity documents were fine, and the two men walked toward Ding Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan saw clearly that there was actually only one person checking the documents; it was a young man in his twenties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other person was a security guard at the station, who was just accompanying this young man to check the documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan immediately understood what was going on. Although the Gene Alliance was a global organization, it couldn't interfere with things like checking documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, it had to be accompanied by station staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, please take out your documents.\" The young man walked up to Ding Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan didn't hesitate at all and took out his ID card directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were still a few minutes left, and he planned to let these two guys checking his ID documents sit with him for a while, and when the train arrived, he would leave immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only benefit was that Andong Ao hadn't come personally. If Andong Ao had come, he probably wouldn't have been able to continue taking this train.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luohe person, Ding Xiaotu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man saw the name and location on Ding Huan’s document and was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Xiaotu was Ding Huan; almost the whole world knew this. When Ding Huan was a student, his name was Ding Xiaotu, and he changed his name to Ding Huan after leaving school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the name Ding Huan had resounded throughout Puhai during the admissions assessment for the top ten Blue Star Academies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan had no expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when he thought the young man was about to make a move, he heard the young man say to the accompanying staff member beside him, \"Captain Qi, you help me continue checking the people behind; I have something to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he looked at Ding Huan excitedly and said, \"You don't recognize me anymore? I am Kong Dan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan was stunned. What did this guy mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Captain Qi didn't care and had already walked to the other side. It was normal to meet an old friend at the station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Captain Qi left, the young man named Kong Dan said excitedly, \"Teacher Ding, I have admired you for a long time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't plan to capture me?\" Ding Huan looked at the excited Kong Dan in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kong Dan scoffed, \"I’d have to be brain-damaged to capture you. It’s the dogs from the Gene Alliance who want to find you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You aren't from the Gene Alliance?\" Ding Huan was even more confused; he thought the young man checking the ID documents was from the Gene Alliance and that Captain Qi was the station security guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kong Dan shook his head. \"Don't look at the fact that I haven't fused with foreign genes; even if I had, I wouldn't look up to such a selfish organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heads of the Gene Alliance don't know which hero wiped them out, and plus, the Alliance Leader of the Gene Alliance, Shi Changqian, isn't in Puhai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andong Ao wants to check all the major train stations, but he can't find anyone to coordinate with in a short time. Because no one is helping, he can only find our Security Division first. I’m just here to make up the numbers and help out; don't take it seriously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he said that, in fact, Kong Dan had already guessed that all the guys in the Gene Alliance’s lair were killed by this Ding Huan in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already trying his best to restrain the excitement in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An idol. He had done what he didn't dare to do and didn't have the ability to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan understood that he had killed almost all the heads of the Gene Alliance who were still in Puhai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Andong Ao and Qin Qiang were also members of the Gene Alliance, they should have more of a nominal title in the Gene Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't even figure out the personnel deployment within the Gene Alliance in a short time. So in a hurry, they could only find the Security Division to help check people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Passengers for the 701 train to Jingchuan, please prepare to board. The train will depart in five minutes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broadcast in the waiting hall came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan took out a piece of paper, wrote a few words on it, handed it to Kong Dan, and said, \"I’m leaving. If I return to Luohe in the future, you can go to Yujiang University in Luohe to find me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Teacher Ding, can I study at Yujiang University?\" Kong Dan was hit by a huge cake, and his whole person was in a daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now who wouldn't want to study under Ding Huan? He actually saw his dream come true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan laughed. \"Of course you can, but I’m not sure when I will go back, maybe even a year or two later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, okay, I can wait...\" Kong Dan was somewhat incoherent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan, who had originally planned to make a move, now entered the train to Yiling City without any obstruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seliu Gene agent, a gene agent for delaying aging and making people live longer, developed and produced by the Luohe Baiyu Group, had exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This led to tens of thousands of deaths in just a few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was just the beginning. From the day the Seliu Gene agent had problems, tens of thousands of people would die every day, and this process would continue until a few months later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was fortunate that the Baiyu Group’s production capacity was insufficient; if the Baiyu Group’s production capacity were enough, the number of deaths per day would rise in a straight line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the Baiyu Group’s Seliu Gene agent would be snatched away as soon as it came out; it wouldn't be in stock for even a day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three days after the Baiyu Group exploded, all the people in charge of the Baiyu Group died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some said they were afraid and committed suicide, while others said they were killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This incident caused the internal collapse of the Baiyu Group; a well-known group in Luohe vanished in just one day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chairman of the Baiyu Group, Ding Jie, went missing, but no one cared about this now; people all over the world were in a panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone who had taken the Baiyu Group’s Seliu Gene agent was waiting for death. As soon as the time came, they would definitely die from bleeding from the seven orifices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the death of all the people in charge of the Baiyu Group, the incident at the Gene Alliance was even more terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Dongxun Gene Center building, the headquarters of the Gene Alliance located in Puhai, there was no need to mention those members who died because of the Seliu Gene agent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What made everyone uneasy was that in the conference room on the top floor of the Dongxun Gene Center building, almost all the people in charge of the Gene Alliance also died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more mysterious was that these dead people had several different ways of dying. The first was naturally dying after taking the Seliu Gene agent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides this way of death, several others died from gunshot wounds, and two were killed by blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the people seemed to have died from a kind of gene agent, and the scene after death from this gene agent was even more horrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the surface, everyone looked normal, but as soon as the corpses were moved, they turned into sewage like rotten mud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Alliance Leader of the Gene Alliance, Shi Changyi, learned that the Gene Alliance had been wiped out in one pot, he was so angry he wanted to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rushed back to Puhai at the first opportunity, but let alone catching the murderer, he couldn't even find a Gene Alliance member to ask about the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, let alone Puhai, other places were also in a mess because of the Seliu Gene agent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the development of the Seliu Gene agent to the problem, the Baiyu Group sold a total of one million doses. Even if half of these agents were taken, it was a terrifying thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These chaotic events did not have much impact on the admissions assessment of the top ten Blue Star Academies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for the first day of the admissions assessment, which was temporarily suspended for half a day, the fourth round of the admissions assessment continued for the rest of the time and was completed ahead of schedule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the top ten Blue Star Academies completed the admissions assessment in Puhai, there were too many things happening in Puhai this time, and the number of people who died was countless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the first time such a situation had occurred; so many people died in a city without the impact of gene beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, as soon as the admissions assessment was completed, the top ten Blue Star Academies opened their admissions work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was the big day for students participating in the admissions assessment of the top ten Blue Star Academies; it was the time for students to choose their academies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the lobby on the first floor of the Puhai Pearl Building, the top ten Blue Star Academies were listed at the top, and each academy had several admissions teachers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most academies, even the deans, were sitting here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the dean couldn't come due to temporary matters, at least the vice dean was here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Admissions teachers, the cultivation mentors of most academies, came here mainly to select the students they liked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The height of an academy’s future development was one of the most important components of its student source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The top 500 students in the four rounds of assessment also came here; they also had to choose their favorite academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The admissions assessment process of the top ten Blue Star Academies could be said to be one in ten thousand, so the elimination rate was shockingly high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every student who could enter the top 500 was not a simple person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, once they entered the top 500, the treatment for the candidates was vastly different from before the exam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because here, not only could the ten academies actively choose candidates, but candidates could also choose academies. Only after both sides reached an agreement was the academy the candidate would attend determined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the candidates who entered here didn't have to worry about no academy wanting them, because even the last one would be recruited by an academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was mandatory; if there were candidates who didn't choose their favorite academy in the end, and the academy hadn't recruited enough people, they had to be matched with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Fang Chong, Li Wanran, and Luo Huaner entered, they attracted the attention of almost all the admissions mentors of the academies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this assessment, Luo Huaner ranked first in total score, Li Wanran ranked third, and Fang Chong ranked fourth in total score.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such students were naturally what all academies wanted to recruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fang Chong, which academy do you want to go to?\" Li Wanran asked in a low voice beside Fang Chong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Chong scanned the area and said, \"Let’s look at their conditions first. Sometimes it’s not that the higher the academy’s ranking, the more suitable it is for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Chong remembered what Ding Huan had told him: don't blindly pursue the ranking of the academy, but look at what the academy can give you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he would definitely choose the Dahan Yi Academy in the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fang Chong, Li Wanran, Luo Huaner, long time no see. Congratulations on coming here.\" A crisp voice sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following this voice was a woman with a seductive figure and a beautiful appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wanran hurriedly bowed and saluted. \"Greetings, Dean Qin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Teacher Geng Qianxing said that this Dean Qin Qiang was plotting against Teacher Ding Huan behind his back, she still had to give enough respect to her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Chong didn't bow; he just followed Li Wanran’s words and said he had met Dean Qin. Although he cursed Qin Qiang as a bastard, he didn't dare to give her a hard time here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Huaner, who was following Fang Chong, saw that Fang Chong didn't bow, so she followed Fang Chong and just called her Dean Qin. \u003C\u002Fp>",2153,"2026-06-17T23:21:20.864Z","2026-06-18T03:10:38.119Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","0bf6742ace72768d559f976fac373ed4fc3034f8d48612b0df11e45e2e9351bd","after-the-myth-chapter-58","after-the-myth-chapter-56",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-the-myth-cover.jpg"]
