Super Gene Hunting Ground

”If you want to make breakthrough progress in the field of genetic evolution, you should consider cultivating at the Heavenly Dragon Academy. There, you’ll receive systematic training.”

Elder Zhan said.

Until now, he doesn’t know Yang Xiao’s true identity or Yang Xiao’s purpose here.

With Elder Zhan’s seventy years of life experience, he can naturally see some unusual things. At the very least, he doesn’t think Yang Xiao is genuinely here for tourism in Dragon City, nor does he believe Yang Xiao’s request to stay that night was a random act of desperation.

But he firmly believes one thing: Yang Xiao harbors no malice toward him and Bing’er, because for an old man and a child, with four bare walls, there’s nothing worth Yang Xiao coveting.

Although there’s always been doubt in his mind, Elder Zhan never asks.

Yang Xiao appeared timely that day, drove away Zhou Bapi, saving Bing’er and his life, and later spent money to help them buy a shop, teaching them how to make ice cream, providing them a way to make a living.

Elder Zhan is grateful to Yang Xiao from his heart, even if Yang Xiao turned out to be a heinous villain, he wouldn’t mind.

He also knows Yang Xiao is just temporarily staying here; sooner or later, he will leave.

Regarding Yang Xiao, Elder Zhan has only one wish, which is ”May good people have a lifetime of peace.”

Yang Xiao asked:

”Is Heavenly Dragon Academy located in Dragon City?”

”No, Heavenly Dragon Academy is about a thousand kilometers away from Dragon City, on a peak called Heavenly Dragon Mountain,

Below Heavenly Dragon Mountain lies a town called Heavenly Dragon Town, where Heavenly Dragon Academy has set up an admissions office, enrolling students year-round. As long as your talent is good enough and you have sufficient money, you can enter Heavenly Dragon Academy for cultivation after passing the assessment.”

”Talent?”

Yang Xiao was momentarily stunned,

”How is a person’s talent in genetic evolution assessed?”

”I don’t know the specifics, but I’ve heard they will take a drop of your blood on the spot for genetic testing, and will also consider your age, current Genetic Evolution Level, and your Beast Soul, etc.”

”Oh, I’ll think about it. Maybe I’ll try going to Heavenly Dragon Academy in some time, you and Bing’er,”

”You don’t need to worry about me and Bing’er. Thanks to you, this shop is enough for us to live a lifetime.”

Yang Xiao nodded. He could only help so much. The rest depends on their own fates.

Among this pile of shabby second-hand books, there was a book that caught Yang Xiao’s interest. It was a blood-red Cultivation Technique storage Jade Slip. Normally, storage Jade Slips only require input of Genetic Evolution Energy to activate the stored information inside, but this red storage Jade Slip had some issues.

On the Jade Slip, the words ”Storm Axe” were written, presumably belonging to the Electric Element type of Cultivation Technique.

Yang Xiao inputted the genetic evolution energy. Under normal circumstances, the Skill Cultivation Method of the Jade Slip would transform into a current and enter Yang Xiao’s body, into his mind, allowing him to automatically complete this set of cultivation techniques.

However, this Jade Slip revealed a segment of text:

”To cultivate the Storm Axe technique, you must possess a Second Rank Magic Weapons, Storm Axe, otherwise, it’s impossible to cultivate.”

Yang Xiao puzzled, asked Elder Zhan,

”What’s the situation?”

Elder Zhan laughed:

”This is just a fake. There’s no Storm Axe Skill Cultivation Method inside, it’s a scam.”

Yang Xiao was stunned, said:

”I looked at the Jade Slip and it seemed quite ancient, doesn’t look like a fake.”

”Well, it’s hard to say. Anyway, a lot of us have gone to the old book store and looked at it, and we all think it’s fake,

Chen Wu from the old book store said it was picked up while collecting junk from a General Mansion in Dragon City, if it were something good, would it be thrown away as trash?”

Yang Xiao nodded, but still unwilling to let it go, asked:

”Is there such a weapon as Storm Axe?”

”Ordinary Genetic Store probably doesn’t have it. You should ask at Dragon City’s Blacksmith Shop. It’s an Electric Element Magic Weapon, and it’s a high-level Magic Killing Weapon. We ordinary folks can’t afford it,

I’ve heard weapons custom-made at the Blacksmith Shop start at least a million Crystal Coins.”

Yang Xiao smiled, put the red Jade Pendant into his Space Ring, treating it as a plaything. In the future, if there’s a chance, he might custom-make a Storm Axe and try it,

What if it’s real?

Yang Xiao seriously considered the matter of going to Heavenly Dragon Academy for cultivation. Right now, he has two purposes: first is to escape Dragon City, avoid Long Aotian’s pursuit.

Second is to find a genetic evolution method, to break his own Evolution Bottleneck, not only advancing himself to Emperor Level, but also prepare for advancing to Emperor Level.

If he goes to Heavenly Dragon Academy, he’ll face a big problem, not knowing if using Yang Xiao’s own identity card to register will be discovered by Long Aotian.

If Long Aotian orders a manhunt for him throughout Great Dragon Empire, Yang Xiao’s identity card can’t be easily taken out and used.

Yang Xiao could only pray Great Dragon Empire doesn’t have an identity card real-name capture system, but his dream is shattered by reality soon.

Long Aotian begins to hunt Yang Xiao all over Dragon City, and starts investigating identity card usage records and Black Gold Card transaction records.

During this period, Yang Xiao hasn’t used his identity card for accommodation, so naturally, it couldn’t be traced.

Long Aotian decided to investigate Yang Xiao’s Black Crystal Card transaction records.

The Black Gold Card is issued by the Genetic Store, usable throughout Witch Star.

As long as there’s a Genetic Store, the Black Crystal Card can be used.

Long Aotian went to the headquarters set up by the Genetic Store in Great Dragon Empire, found the person in charge, Gu Hai.

”Boss Gu, hello!”

”Eldest Prince, what a rare visitor. May I ask what brings you here?”

”Boss Gu, it’s like this: we’re hunting an escaped convict in Great Dragon Empire, but this person seems to have vanished without a trace, don’t know where he’s hiding,

This person has a Black Crystal Card; I believe he will use the Black Crystal Card to purchase items, eat, or stay somewhere. Therefore, I want to ask Boss Gu to help investigate this person’s consumption records.”

Gu Hai hesitated, said calmly:

”Your Highness, you know that every person holding a Black Crystal Card is a VIP of our Genetic Store. We are obligated to protect customer’s privacy. I’m afraid I can’t assist with your request.”

”Boss Gu, there’s always an exception. This person isn’t from Witch Star Continent, he’s from another planet, an extremely dangerous criminal. Recently, he’s killed several of our guards. If we don’t catch him, there will likely be more deaths under his hands,

Genetic Store, as our ally and partner of Great Dragon Empire, should be able to help us with this small matter, right? It’s also considered helping Dragon City maintain social security, punishing evil-doers, isn’t it?”

Gu Hai pondered for a moment, took a pen and paper from behind the counter and placed it in front of Long Aotian, saying:

”Write down his name for me.”

”Alright.”

Long Aotian wrote ”Yang Xiao.”

Gu Hai glanced at it, feeling it seemed somewhat familiar, but couldn’t recall where he’d seen it, so he said:

”Your Highness, please wait a moment, I will check.”

Gu Hai walked into a special room within the Genetic Store, handed the white paper to a young man inside the room,

”Help me check the transaction records of this person’s Black Crystal Card.”
