and too attractive!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Not to mention he also plans to take the second-grade evolutionist examination.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It just so happens that the competition and the examination are happening together.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Entering the second grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The income will be far from what it is now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Besides, there are still three months left.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It's still early.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What he needs to do now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is to evolve the two Brilliants.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To frigates as quickly as possible!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And then truly enjoy the infinite scenery of the universe!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And then truly behold the infinite scenery of the universe!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the days that followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an spent every day feeling extremely fulfilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Cultivating heavenly treasures to temper his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Converting biological energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Star battle simulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Evolution simulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Studying at school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He didn't even have enough time.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For combat simulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He had to set them aside for the time being.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Unsurprisingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Steel-Bone Grass and Star-Gazing Flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Broke through to the third grade after reaching a hundred years of age.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Their vitality then entered a period of direct decline.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He couldn't even inject more wealth points to maintain them.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This was normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Some heavenly treasures are inherently of a lower tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It does not mean that any heavenly treasure can grow indefinitely.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The maximum grade for Steel-Bone Grass and Star-Gazing Flower is third grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They cannot go any higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But that was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The current second-grade Steel-Bone Grass and Star-Gazing Flower are still quite effective, so he continued using them.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Furthermore, there were the heavenly treasures that the special recruit 'lost' to him—\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In any case, Xu Zi'an considered that the other party had indeed lost them to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The heavenly treasures he lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Were of a slightly better quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Reaching up to the fourth grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Enough for him to consume for a long time to come without worrying about a lack of heavenly treasures to temper his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Nowadays, Xu Zi'an didn't even know how strong his physical fitness was.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Anyway...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Some time ago, in a combat simulation, Xu Zi'an had killed a Bug-Man race Battle Master level powerhouse!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The kind that is at the level of an assault ship captain!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And an intermediate one at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Intermediate...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Meaning between the fourth and sixth grade of the Battle Master realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He wasn't sure of the exact grade, only that it was roughly an intermediate Battle Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The most obvious sign of his physical strengthening was that the amount of biological energy he could withstand daily was slowly increasing!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A month had passed now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He could increase his biological energy by 23 points every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And just today.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Had completed the evolution of two Cuitan-class world reconnaissance ships!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>One of them was naturally completed on Cuitan Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The other one.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He jumped directly to Yaochi Star and found a private, enclosed starship factory to carry out the evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And they were evolved simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Just for the intermediate evolution, the wealth points Xu Zi'an spent jumping back and forth reached 1300 points!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For the sake of stability, Xu Zi'an would never feel stingy about money that needed to be spent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The maximum value for a tenth-grade warrior is 970 biological energy points.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And Xu Zi'an...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Was clearly at a terrifying 1940 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an's biological energy had now reached a shocking 1620 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was only 320 points away from 1940.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At Xu Zi'an's current rate of biological energy conversion...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It would probably only take about twelve or thirteen days.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To reach the maximum value for a tenth-grade warrior!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And it would be a tenth-grade warrior in the true sense, unprecedented in history!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>You have to know...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an's current biological energy points.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Had even exceeded the level of a second-tier frigate captain!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was hard to imagine.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once his Cuitan evolved to the frigate level.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>His combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Would reach a terrifying degree.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Previously, Xu Zi'an estimated that once he became a frigate captain, he could at least survive in front of an assault ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even if Xu Zi'an hadn't become a frigate captain yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He had enough confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once he became a frigate captain.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He wouldn't just survive in front of one; he could blow it up!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He wouldn't dare speak for high-level ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He couldn't 100% guarantee it against those who had truly come off the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But at least for low-level and intermediate assault ships that hadn't seen real combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He would blow up every single one that came his way!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>So starting today.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an had one more task.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And that was to start preparing for the Cuitan's evolution into a frigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, he would reach the maximum value in at most half a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The blood in Xu Zi'an's veins, eager to go out and adventure, was already boiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Deep down, he had always been a person who loved excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What's more...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>His evolution points were gone again, damn it!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once the two Cuitans evolved into frigates.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He would only have the very last bit left to save his life!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Evolving from a reconnaissance ship to a frigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is an evolution in the true sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It is also an evolution that brings about massive changes from the inside out.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>There were no surprises.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an's frigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Would inevitably be the extreme length of 269.9 meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The length of a frigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is between 140 meters and 269.9 meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>One can choose the base data for their frigate's evolution based on personal strength and needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Generally speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even those top geniuses who evolve from the ninth rank to a frigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Most would not choose the extreme length of 269.9 meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It's not that they lack biological energy; the maximum state of a ninth-grade warrior breaking through to a first-grade battle general.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is actually enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Without a doubt, their sustained combat capability would definitely not last long.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Most importantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The closer a starship is to its extreme length, the higher the failure rate of evolution!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The failure rate for the extreme length is even ninety percent higher than that of a medium-length evolution!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And this is one of the main reasons why those biological ship captains generally do not choose the extreme length when undergoing major evolutions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Unless...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It's the tenth rank!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Only at the tenth rank does the failure rate for extreme-length evolution equal that of a normal length.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But how many in the entire Earth Federation have broken through at the tenth rank?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Few, pitifully few.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>So few that most people even ignore the existence of the tenth-rank peak level within each grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ordinary people, seventh-rank evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Geniuses, eighth-rank evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Top geniuses, ninth-rank evolution!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is equivalent to a double tenth-rank evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Sustained combat power?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>No one at the same level can compare to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Failure rate?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Not to mention, he has the evolution simulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Failure does not exist!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an wanted the extreme length, width, and height for his frigate evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>There really weren't any suitable keels and hulls on the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The keel is the foundation of the house, and the hull is the frame!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This determines the base data for the starship's length, width, and height.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Group companies like the Universe Technology Group and the Mechanical Empire do have keels and hulls with extreme dimensions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But they aren't the best.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because very, very few people buy keels and hulls with extreme dimensions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This led to these two companies not investing much research energy into keels and hulls of these parameters.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At least compared to the keels and hulls of other sizes in their companies.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The keels and hulls with extreme dimensions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Are actually a bit inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, after making many choices.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Finally decided to set his target on the scale of the entire universe!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After extremely detailed screening.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For the keel.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an decided to use a type of starship keel unique to the Giant Star Alien race.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Giant Star Alien race.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is one of the top groups among the Alien races.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And also one of the main groups of the Alien races.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Main group... means the same as the orthodox human race of the Universal Human Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Alien race is a force composed of multiple main groups and a massive number of servant groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Giant Star Alien race is one of the main groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Their characteristics are: big! Thick! Sturdy!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This doesn't just refer to their starships, but the Giant Star Aliens themselves!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They are generally three to four meters tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Their preferences are also the bigger, the sturdier, and the thicker, the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Their starships are naturally the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>All Giant Star Alien starships have extreme length, width, and height!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And they are the kind that won't evolve unless it's to the extreme length, width, and height!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Xu Zi'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Had his eye on their frigate keel.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Absolute extreme length, width, and height.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>(Seeking flowers...)\u003C\u002Fp>",1539,"2026-06-17T01:53:37.806Z","2026-06-17T08:59:15.535Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","f411a7fec54b4c2e0bd2ac48c85cb20168469c56a07355fe5df321abe4bbe4cd","stellar-fleet-from-scrap-vessel-to-cosmic-dreadn-chapter-143","stellar-fleet-from-scrap-vessel-to-cosmic-dreadn-chapter-141",385,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstellar-fleet-from-scrap-vessel-to-cosmic-dreadn-cover.jpg"]
