Legend of the Mythological Genes

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

A huge Star Warship was floating in the deep and silent universe. A group of candidates had gathered at the square inside the Star Warship after having safely returned from Asura Planet.

“Heisens, 2,176 points!”

As a candidate brought out his war trophies, the A.I. automatically scanned and gave the corresponding marks.

“Amazing! Doesn’t such a high score means that he has killed at least 217 soldier-type aberrations?!”

“Although this person is only an Interstellar cultivator, his battle prowess isn’t simple!”

“Of course! Which person who can fight their way out from the Asura Planet can be trifled with?”

…

A commotion broke out amongst the other candidates.

The white-skinned young man wore an arrogant look on his face, enjoying everyone’s gaze as he walked down.

However, he didn’t get to stay happy for too long before the A.I.’s voice immediately caused his smile to freeze.

“Zhao Wuji, 10,780 points!”

Hua!

The surroundings broke out into a commotion.

It was far too terrifying to have the test score suddenly being raised to over 10,000 points.

Such a high score was simply too much of an exaggeration. The person would have to hunt at least over 1,000 aberrations. The 2,000 points from earlier was a far cry in comparison. Such a high score would almost guarantee the candidate from passing the test.

However, the astonishment was far from being over.

An eastern young man with blonde hair that was like the color of the sun walked out from the crowd. The moment he appeared with his upright figure, he attracted everyone’s gazes.

Donghuang Ling!

He was like a person favored by the god, born to be at the center of the world like the sun, and surrounded by the stars.

Many pairs of eyes filled with admiration, envy, respect… glanced over.

Amongst these candidates, Donghuang Ling was a genius candidate who had been ranked at the very top. His vitality exceeded 500 points, and he was a middle-phase elite cultivator.

This feat was unbelievable for someone so young in the solar system where the resources were scarce. Everyone started to talk amongst themselves.

“I heard that during the test, Donghuang Ling gathered the majority of the people to hunt a humanoid queen. Although they didn’t succeed, it’s already a terrifying feat to be able to retreat safely!”

“I wonder how many points he can score. It definitely won’t be low!”

“That humanoid queen was snatched by an unknown candidate and was chased after by the Ultimate Killer King. He’s definitely dead! It seems that Donghuang Ling is definitely going to take the number one spot in the test!”

…

The Greek sisters mixed in amongst the crowd and watched this scene quietly. There was a hint of anxiety in their eyes as they looked around.

“Elder sister, the ten days deadline is going to be up soon! That Feng Lin couldn’t have been killed by that Ultimate Killer King, right?” Aris’s voice sounded grim.

However, Yana was very calm. She shook her head and said in a soft voice, “Don’t worry! Feng Lin has always been a person who thinks before he acts and has a lot of tricks up his sleeves. Since he dares to snatch the humanoid queen’s corpse, then he must have been prepared and not acted recklessly. Although that Ultimate Killer King is strong, he might not be able to kill Feng Lin!”

“Let’s hope that’s the case!” The two ladies exchanged a glance and didn’t say another word.

Clatter!

A large number of objects dropped to the ground, and the air permeated with foul blood odor.

A lot of aberrations’ thumbs dropped out, piling up to form a small mountain.

The A.I.’s red light kept on flashing non-stop and started to scan incessantly. Suddenly, it reported astronomical numbers that took everyone present by surprise. “1.456 million points!”

“What? Over one million points?”

“This is too much of an exaggeration! He definitely must have killed a large aberration queen! Otherwise, his score couldn’t possibly hit over one million!”

“As expected of Donghuang Ling! To be able to kill an aberration queen that’s of the same level as him when surrounded by so many aberrations!”

…

Such a tremendous amount of points made the other candidates gasp.

Even the examiners looked at him in a different light.

The marshall dressed in battle armor locked his gaze onto Donghuang Ling, nodded, and praised him, “Excellent! The solar system is a deteriorating star region for cultivation. However, you aren’t bad to be able to reach such a cultivation level! If your score is placed amongst the past exam results, you’ll definitely come out first!”

The others were filled with envy to see that Donghuang Ling had received the praise of the interstellar army’s marshall.

However, Donghuang Ling’s expression remained calm. He nodded as if this was something perfectly normal and to be expected.

In his opinion, the person who had snatched the humanoid queen had been chased and killed by the Ultimate Killer King, and couldn’t have survived. Who else but him could be the number one?

“What is he so arrogant about? If Feng Lin is around, his score would definitely be higher!” Aris let out a cold snort.

The three of them had been joining forces to hunt down queens and were very clear about each other’s scores. They were very sure that Feng Lin’s score was definitely higher than this 1.45 million points and thus viewed Donghuang Ling in disdain when he acted as if the first position was his.

…

Aris didn’t lower her voice while snorting.

Everyone present was at least interstellar cultivators and had a keen sense of hearing. They instantly locked their gazes in her direction.

Donghuang Ling’s expression turned cold, but he immediately broke into a faint smile and looked at Aris with a deep gaze. He laughed softly and asked, “Oh? There’s such a character in this test? What kind of person is this Feng Lin?”

His gaze was filled with oppression as he stared at the Greek sisters.

Aris’s brows raised and she was about to speak up.

“It’s nothing. He is just a companion of ours. My younger sister was only joking,” Yana spoke up emotionlessly, throwing back Donghuang Ling’s probing and didn’t reveal any information about Feng Lin at all.

Although Aris had a forthright character, she was no fool either and realized that she had almost divulged Feng Lin’s secret. She immediately shut her mouth and didn’t speak again.

“Oh?” Seeing that the two sisters didn’t pay him any heed, Donghuang Ling knew that he wouldn’t be able to find out anything from them and didn’t continue asking. He was deep in his own thought while his eyes glimmering with a deep glow. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Thereafter, the other candidates took turn to step up.

“Fang Rui, 5,672 points!”

“Fuuma Taro, 20,138 points!”

“Setto, 12,637 points!”

…

The scores kept being updated and rising, but there was still no one who could surpass Donghuang Ling. It was almost a certainty that he would clinch the top position and no one would be able to move him from that spot.

It was finally the Greek sisters’ turn.

The two ladies exchanged a glance and walked up.

The sisters’ beauty immediately attracted everyone’s gazes.

The two of them waved their hands, and a pile of aberrations’ thumbs fell down and piled up into a small mountain.

“Aris, 689,000 points!”

“Yana, 362,000 points!”

…

As the A.I. revealed their test scores, the crowd broke into a commotion again.

There were few high-level female cultivators to begin with, yet to think that these two sisters could get such a high score. They were next only to Donghuang Ling, surpassing everyone else.

While feeling astonished, they also felt that this was hard to accept.

“How did these two ladies do it?”

“It’s unbelievable!”

“I haven’t heard of their names before this!”

…

Everyone started to guess the ladies’ background.

“These two b*ches!” A pair of eerie and vicious gazes stared at this scene as if coming from a hungry ghost.

Just as everyone was talking amongst themselves, a faint and soft laughter rang out, breaking the silence.

“I would like to trouble both examiners to give them an additional 100,000 points each!”

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

As these words rang out, everyone’s gazes turned to look toward its source.

A tall and slender figure walked out very slowly. Who else could it be but Feng Lin?

Everyone’s gaze was on Feng Lin. He wore a faint smile as if he didn’t sense anything at all.

“What do you mean by this?” an examiner asked.

“It’s nothing!” Feng Lin smiled. “Yana, Aris, and myself have cooperated to hunt aberrations. I have two medium aberration queens’ thumbs here that I would like to trouble the examiners to transfer to them. This should let their score increase by another 100,000 points!”

“You really want to do this?” The examiner was stunned, unable to comprehend what this examiner was thinking. Their test scores were very important, yet he was being so generous as to give them up?

“Feng Lin, there’s no need to do this! If you were to give the points to us, how are you going to fight for the first place?” said Yana in a low voice.

Everyone broke into a commotion.

“This person is Feng Lin?”

“He’s also thinking of fighting for the first place?”

“Who is he? Who is he to dare fight with Donghuang Ling?”

…

Many pairs of eyes seemed like sharp swords, wanting to pierce through Feng Lin and see through all of his backgrounds.

Standing amongst the crowd, Donghuang Ling’s expression started to turn eerie all of a sudden.

“Don’t worry!” Feng Lin said to Yana, “This small amount of points won’t be able to affect me! Moreover, this is what I promised to give the two of you.”

After snatching the humanoid queen, he had been surrounded and attacked by the Ultimate Killer King, Donghuang Ling, as well as many other killers and candidates.

“Could it be…” Seeing that Feng Lin was so confident, Yana was confounded. However, she suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes opened wide while she appeared as if she wanted to say something.

Feng Lin brought out two thumbs that were as sharp as blades. They were clearly different from the other aberrations’ fingers.

“Medium aberration queens’ thumbs!” Those examiners knew their stuff and could immediately recognize what they were seeing. They took a long look at Feng Lin and said, “Are you sure that you want to do this?”

Feng Lin nodded.

Seeing that Feng Lin had decided, the two examiners didn’t persuade him any further. Transmission of points was the candidates’ freedom, and they didn’t have the right to interfere.

Thereafter, both Yana’s and Aris’s score were increased by 100,000 points, reaching 462,000 points and 789,000 points respectively and taking on the second and third place.

However, they were destined not to be able to stay in their positions for long. It was because Donghuang Ling wasn’t going to be able to keep his first place either.

Clatter clatter clatter!

The stench of blood filled the air.

Feng Lin waved his hand and a pile of aberrations’ fingers piled up into a mountain of bones before him. The pile was three meters in height, taller than even himself.

“Feng Lin, 1.678 million points!” The A.I. kept on flashing non-stop as it announced his score.

A commotion broke out amongst the crowd. Where did this person come from? How could his score surpass Donghuang Ling’s?

Could it be that he came out first instead?

Didn’t this make him the King of the Solar System?

…

Feng Lin’s figure engraved into everyone’s eyes, and all of them remembered him.

No matter how calm Donghuang Ling was, his smile had stiffened.

After staying in the first place for so long, he was forcibly pulled off from the position. How could he possibly accept this?

He glanced around, and his lackeys came close and passed him something.

“Hold on, I have more points!” Donghuang Ling suddenly spoke up and waved his hand, bringing out another pile of aberrations’ finger bones and placing them on the ground.

The A.I.’s records for his score was immediately changed from 1.456 million to 1.817 million points. He once again surpassed Feng Lin.

“I had wanted to transfer these points to my friend, but now, I can only bring them out to show everyone my true strength!” He stood upright and smiled, looking at Feng Lin.

“He’s really shameless! Taking other people’s scores for himself yet making it sound as if it was a matter of fact!” Aris let out a cold snort.

“There’s no other way about it! It’s the individual’s freedom to transfer their scores to others. It’s just that Feng Lin has transferred his to us and that Donghuang Ling acted so shamelessly. He was already in second place yet still got more points from his people!” Yana said in a low voice.

Feng Lin smiled and shook his head, not paying it much heed. He said indifferently, “Who’s going to be the first? This is yet to be decided!”

“What?” The two ladies were both taken by surprise.

Feng Lin waved his hand, and another pile of aberrations’ finger bones was brought out.

Over the past few days, he had been perfecting the Beastlike Fist Art and hunting aberrations. How could he possibly not have gotten anything from that?

“Feng Lin, 2.072 million points!” The score on the A.I. broke through the two million marks, and Feng Lin once again rose to first place.

“What? How many aberrations did this guy kill?” Donghuang Ling felt immense pressure and let out a soft bellow, “Give me all of your points!”

Those bootlickers were immediately thrown into a dilemma. If they were to transfer too many points, they wouldn’t be able to pass the test.

“Don’t worry! As long as you leave 5,000 points for yourself, you’ll be able to secure a spot amongst the top 100. Give me all of your remaining points! After I’ve gotten the first place, you’ll get your benefits!” Donghuang Ling said in a cold voice.

Hearing Donghuang Ling say this, those people could only helplessly and secretly transfer their points again, the points that they had accumulated through hard work.

“Donghuang Ling, 2.602 million points!”

Donghuang Ling’s score displayed by the A.I. once again and surpassed Feng Lin’s by over 500,000 points.

“There’s no more chance!”

“It’s over!”

“It seems that Donghuang Ling will be the first after all!”

…

At the sight of this, everyone shook their heads, feeling that the outcome was decided.

Feng Lin had been too conceited and took the risk by giving away precious points to others. It was clear that he wouldn’t be able to obtain the first place now.

Everyone shook their heads and started to leave as if they had already known of the final outcome and that there was nothing else to see here.

Clatter clatter clatter!

The sound of another huge pile of things dropping on the ground rang out once again.

The smell of blood was overbearing.

“Feng Lin, 3.216 million points!” The A.I. once again revealed a new score, completely throwing all of them into a daze.

Over three million points!

The three million marks were cleared just like that?

“This…” Donghuang Ling was stunned as well and gritted his teeth. “How many aberrations did this guy kill?”

He turned his gaze around.

Those bootlickers who had always been heeding his every word had all disappeared.

They didn’t have many points for themselves. If they were to continue giving him their points, they would really be eliminated. They still wanted to participate in the exam for the Cosmos Universities!

Donghuang Ling found this extremely hard to accept, but there was no way he could make up for the huge difference in their score. He could only watch as Feng Lin took the first place in this test.

Seeing everyone’s brilliant expressions, Feng Lin let out a soft laugh.

He had yet to bring out that humanoid queen’s finger!

If he were to take that out, his score would hit over ten million!

The reason he had hunted the humanoid queen was because he wanted to make it impossible for others to surpass him.

Now that he had already done that, there wasn’t a need for him to bring that out and attract hatred for no reason, creating trouble for himself.

As long as his position was ascertained, it didn’t matter how many points he got.

Seeing his name high up in the ranking over everyone else’s, Feng Lin sighed in his heart.

King of the Solar System?

He eventually still reached this step. Next, he would be participating in the Cosmos University’s enrolment examinations. That was where the real stage across the interstellar university would be.

“Excellent! Congratulations, Feng Lin! Your score has broken past years’ records!” The marshall from the interstellar army walked over and took a long look at Feng Lin.

“Congratulations on becoming the projected top scorer in the solar system!”
