Instantly Defeating a Rare-Tier Strongman! The Whole Crowd Was Stunned!

More than ten days later.

The Exotic Human Tier geniuses who went out of the city for training some time ago have all returned to the city.

Seeing that it was rare for everyone to be present, Lan Tianbai gathered all the team members together for a simple morning meeting.

In a spacious clearing in the woods.

Including Lan Tianbai, there were a total of 28 people, roughly forming a circle.

Everyone was casually leaning against the tree trunks, or simply sitting in them, looking very relaxed.

Who are those two people?

"They're so good-looking, even more so than celebrities on Earth."

"Is it the couple Provincial Governor Ye mentioned last time, the one who said they'd be joining the team soon?"

"..."

Many of the team members who had just returned from their training had never seen Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan before.

Seeing how good-looking these two were, he was immediately drawn to them and curiously observed them.

Listening to the surrounding conversations, Lan Tianbai walked over to Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan and introduced them to the veteran members of the team, "This handsome young man and beautiful young woman are the Earth geniuses that Provincial Governor Ye mentioned before."

"His name is Lin Zichen, and her name is Shen Qinghan."

"I only joined the team last month."

"Let's all get to know each other's faces, so we don't run into each other during our training trips and not not recognize each other."

After only a few brief introductions, Lan Tianbai didn't elaborate further on Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan.

He then turned to look at the two young men in front of him with a broad smile— Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao.

"Ah-Xian, Tao-Zi, how did you two evolve into rare-level creatures? Aren't you going to come out and share with everyone?"

Lan Tianbai keenly sensed that the oppressive aura emanating from Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao had become much stronger.

The two kings, one Exotic Human Tier and the other a prodigy, were both at the Advanced Tier 9 the Great Perfection Biological Rank before this trip out of the city for training, just one step away from the Rare Tier.

But this seemingly insurmountable gap has kept them locked in a stalemate for two and a half years, with neither able to break through.

Unexpectedly, after returning from this training, the two of them evolved into Rare Tier creatures, which was a pleasant surprise for their instructor, Lan Tianbai.

"Actually, it's nothing. We were just lucky and found a Blood Spirit Fruit Tree in Blood Evil Valley. There were two ripe Blood Spirit Fruit on the tree, and we each ate one, which made us evolve to the Rare Tier."

Zhao Qingxian said with a relaxed expression.

Upon hearing this, everyone else was filled with envy.

Blood Spirit Fruit is a rare Spirit Fruit that even Epic- level creatures would envy, and the two of them managed to snag it by chance; their luck is truly heaven-defying.

Seeing the others' regretful expressions, lamenting that they hadn't gone to Blood Evil Valley for training and thus missed out on the Blood Spirit Fruit, Lan Tianbai spoke up:

"To find a ripe Blood Spirit Fruit Tree by chance? Is there such a good thing in the world?"

"These two guys chose to go to Blood Evil Valley for training because of that Blood Spirit Fruit Tree. Do they really think they just got lucky and stumbled upon it?"

"Furthermore, Blood Evil Valley is teeming with Rare Tier creatures. Only those two have the resources and self-defense capabilities to train there."

"If it were anyone else in the team, even Xia Liu, who was Xia Liu only to the two of them, they would find it difficult to make any progress in Blood Evil Valley, and could easily perish there."

"You guys, stop imagining success as something so easy."

"If someone calmly tells you that they succeeded easily, they're probably just showing off."

As he spoke, Lan Tianbai suddenly erupted with energy, releasing it from a distance of more than ten meters, blasting apart the clothes on Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao.

They exposed their battered upper bodies to the public.

They were all fresh wounds.

Some wounds had a chunk of flesh missing, clearly revealing the bone underneath—a truly horrifying sight.

"Did you see that?"

Lan Tianbai looked around and said, "No success comes easily; don't take it for granted."

Everyone looked at the wounds on Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao's upper bodies with grave expressions.

They were just envious of the two, but now they couldn't feel any envy; all they felt was admiration.

If it were them, they would never dare to take such risks as these two, and would instead choose a more secure way to obtain evolutionary resources.

These two were able to reach the Rare Tier of mastery before the age of 30, both through sheer grit and determination.

Of course, both of them possess top-tier evolutionary talents; otherwise, they certainly wouldn't have been able to attain the Rare Tier realm before the age of 30 by simply working hard.

"Lin Zi, that guy on the left named Zhang Tao is amazing. His stomach is practically torn open, but he's still standing there like nothing happened. If it were me, I would have been in excruciating pain."

Shen Qinghan whispered in Lin Zichen's ear.

Lin Zichen nodded. "Indeed powerful; the physical body of Rare Tier creature is extraordinary."

As he spoke, his gaze remained fixed on the wound in Zhang Tao's lower abdomen, staring intently at the unhealed bloody hole.

He saw the edge of the blood hole, from which a purple liquid was constantly seeping out, preventing the flesh from rebuilding.

Is it poisonous?

How did you get it?

Exotic Beast?

Or is it Exotic Plant?

I wonder if my "Immunity to All Poisons" will be enough to protect me.

Lin Zichen was filled with thoughts, particularly concerned about the poison that could take effect on the flesh of Rare Tier creatures.

"Zhang Tao, this hole in your lower abdomen can't heal on its own. Should we go to the Medical Office to get it treated now?"

Zhao Qingxian looked at Zhang Tao and asked.

Zhang Tao remained calm. "It's just a small hole, there's no need to treat it specially. In a few hours, once the toxins have all broken down, it will be healed."

"Yes, that's very tough."

Zhao Qingxian smiled and praised him, but inwardly he cursed him as an idiot.

Deliberately ignoring your wound just to show off in front of others—what else is that but idiotic?

"By the way, are Xia Liu and the other two still training outside the city? I haven't seen them."

Zhang Tao looked at Zhao Qingxian and asked.

Zhao Qingxian was speechless. "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask? I just came back from training with you."

Both of them had just returned to the city after completing their training and came straight to the morning meeting. They were unaware that Xia Liu and the other two had been beaten half to death by Lin Zichen and were still unable to get out of bed.

"Xia Liu, Liu Xinyi, and Gao Jianying are still recovering from their injuries and cannot get out of bed for the time being."

Fu Zhou, one of the witnesses, spoke calmly.

Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao listened with a lot of doubt.

Among them, Zhao Qingxian spoke up, "What happened to those three? Did they go to fight that Ice Giant Python and get killed by it instead?"

He had heard Xia Liu mention before that the three of them were going to hunt the Ice Giant Python in the forest to the right of the city.

That was an Advanced, Tier 9, Great Perfection Ice Giant Python, its Biological Rank was not low.

However, due to being pregnant, her strength has declined considerably.

Logically speaking, as long as Xia Liu and the other two are well-prepared, they should be able to successfully hunt.

But the truth is, Xia Liu and his two companions not only failed in their hunt, but were also left bedridden.

This is truly hard to understand.

Just as Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao were both puzzled, Lan Tianbai, the instructor, spoke up and said with a smile:

"You might not believe it, but Xia Liu and the others weren't killed by the Ice Giant Python; they were killed by this newcomer named Lin Zichen."

What?!

Nearly ten people at the scene, including Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao, were stunned for a moment, and then their faces turned astonished.

Xia Liu and his team were defeated by a newbie?

How is that possible?

Xia Liu's Biological Rank is Advanced Tier 9.

The remaining Liu Xinyi and Gao Jianying, also possess Advanced eight skills.

If the three of them work together well, they each have a chance to defeat a powerful expert at the Advanced of the Tier 9.

If someone like this can still get beaten by a newbie, then what level of skill does that newbie need to be?

Rare Tier?

Is that even possible?

This is clearly impossible.

"Brother Bai, are you serious? You're not joking, are you?"

Zhao Qingxian spoke up in doubt.

He had a good relationship with Lan Tianbai; when he first joined the team, Lan Tianbai was the team captain.

Lan Tianbai said earnestly, "Although it sounds unbelievable, it is indeed true. Many people saw it that day, and I have already confirmed it with the City Lord."

Upon hearing this answer, those who had initially looked astonished instantly became completely shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief.

How could a 19-year-old newcomer, who grew up on an Earth with scarce evolutionary resources from birth until joining the team, possess strength comparable to Rare Tier?

What on earth is going on?!

Everyone present felt bewildered and that it was all unreal.

"Your name is Lin Zichen, right? Interested in sparring with me?"

A young man named Gao Zilong stepped forward and challenged Lin Zichen.

He didn't believe Lin Zichen truly possessed strength comparable to Rare Tier and wanted to verify it himself.

Lin Zichen glanced at Gao Zilong and, with the help of [Danger Perception], instantly obtained the other party's biological information.

Advanced Tier 9.

It incorporates the genes of seven different Exotic Beast.

Cultivating both spirit and vital energy.

Yes, very strong.

But it's nothing compared to me...

After thinking for a moment, Lin Zichen calmly said, "Your strength is too weak; there's no point in sparring with you."

"You...!"

Gao Zilong was so angry he almost vomited blood. This newcomer was too arrogant, showing no respect whatsoever. He was utterly disrespectful and deserved a beating.

Lin Zichen really wanted to be arrogant.

This is not Earth, but a perilous Origin Land of danger.

There's no point in hiding your talents.

If you have the ability, then show it as much as possible in exchange for better evolutionary resources.

"I'd like to see if you're really as strong as Instructor Lan claims!"

Before Gao Zilong could finish speaking, his robust body began to undergo extensive mutations.

His pupils turned scarlet.

Its body is covered with jet-black scales.

Sharp bone knives grew out from the outer sides of both arms.

In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a somewhat ugly young man into a warrior exuding a powerful aura.

"Buzz!"

A piercing whistling sound rang out.

Gao Zilong moved like a shadow, rushing towards Lin Zichen at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, leaving behind a trail of withered branches and fallen leaves, and kicking up clouds of dust.

So strong!

The explosive power of this speed is at least at the Advanced Tier 9 level!

Gao Zilong has actually evolved...

The veteran players present all looked surprised.

None of them expected that Gao Zilong would evolve to the Advanced Tier 9 after returning from his training.

Keep in mind that Gao Zilong is not even 22 years old this year.

At just 22 years old, he's already at the Advanced Tier 9; his evolutionary talent seems to be almost catching up with Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao.

Just when everyone was amazed by Gao Zilong...

"Bang!"

With that sound, a figure was sent flying backward at lightning speed.

It's Gao Zilong.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Gao Zilong crashed heavily into a towering tree, his entire body sinking into the trunk, and he remained motionless.

What happens?

Almost everyone was shocked, not even seeing how Gao Zilong was sent flying.

Only Lan Tianbai, Zhao Qingxian, and Zhang Tao, whose Biological Rank was as high as Rare Tier, could barely see that Lin Zichen had thrown a punch in an instant, sending Gao Zilong flying.

The entire process was over in just a few milliseconds, so fast that it was hard to react.

"You are indeed incredibly strong. Let me spar with you!"

As that sound rang out.

The next second, Zhang Tao, still injured in the abdomen, leaped out of the crowd at lightning speed.

When he landed on the ground, his muscles expanded rapidly, like inflating a balloon, instantly increasing his height from 1.9 meters to over 3 meters.

So big!

Is this what Rare Tier powerhouse is like?

Seeing Zhang Tao transformed into a giant, many people present were deeply shocked.

With Zhang Tao being so strong, how can the newcomer Lin Zichen possibly withstand him?

He certainly wouldn't dare to confront him head-on; he would definitely avoid direct confrontation and choose to rely on his agility to outmaneuver the now cumbersome Zhang Tao, engaging in a protracted battle...

Almost everyone thinks so.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Zhang Tao moved, taking heavy steps towards Lin Zichen, each step causing the earth beneath his feet to tremble.

Facing Zhang Tao, who charged at him like a tank, Lin Zichen stood still without the slightest panic, remaining calm and composed throughout.

"Step back a bit."

Lin Zichen reminded Shen Qinghan beside him.

Shen Qinghan didn't say anything, and quickly took a few steps back so as not to interfere with Lin Zichen's attack.

"Thump!"

Then, a heavy thud echoed as the ground hit the ground.

Zhang Tao, who was just a hundred meters away, had rushed in front of Lin Zichen, raised a fist as thick as a water bucket, and smashed it hard into Lin Zichen's face.

At this critical moment...

Lin Zichen raised his elbow, carrying terrifying power of blood and qi, and slammed it towards Zhang Tao's iron fist.

Zhang Tao threw a punch with unparalleled confidence.

He was convinced that with this powerful punch, Lin Zichen would be defeated without a doubt, and would have to stay in bed for at least three months.

But at the very moment Lin Zichen threw his elbow!

A huge "death" character suddenly appeared before his eyes, obscuring his entire vision and causing his expression to change drastically. He immediately pushed off with his feet, trying to get away from Lin Zichen in front of him.

However, it was too late.

Lin Zichen's elbow strike was as fast as lightning, and it slammed into Zhang Tao's iron fist the moment Zhang Tao had the thought of retreating.

Soon!

There was a loud "boom".

The terrifying aftershocks of the bombardment spread as fiercely as a nuclear explosion, instantly uprooting the surrounding vegetation and sending it flying into the distance.

Even geniuses with lower Biological Rank, such as Shen Qinghan, Qian Yifei, Zhao Zixuan, were thrown into the air by the aftershocks and flew backward.

Then, the aftershocks of the exchange of fire were fleeting.

Instead, a one-way shockwave shot out with a deafening roar, carrying a towering figure that blotted out the sky, blasting everything in its path away.

Before anyone could react, they realized what had happened.

Zhang Tao, who is over three meters tall, is embedded in the trunk of a towering tree. The fist he just threw at Lin Zichen has all the finger bones shattered, and his entire arm hangs down like a rotten banana, devoid of any vitality.

Zhang Tao, on whom everyone placed high hopes, was defeated.
