My Genes Can Evolve Limitlessly - Chapter 8

In the arena, Lu Yuan and Little Tiger faced each other.

Fu Langming, who was below, patted the floor.

“Start!”

The two of them looked at each other. Little Tiger scratched his head and smiled simple-mindedly, saying.

“You can attack first.”

The audience was also shouting,

“S*ssy! Hurry! Hurry and attack! This is your only chance!”

“That’s right! Give Little Tiger a punch! This is a man’s pride! Prove that you’re at least not a s*ssy!”

“…”

Lu Yuan, who was in the ring, grinned. He then used a technique from the Military Fist and took a step forward.

His body, nurtured by the genetic chain, erupted in power, rapidly charging up to Little Tiger.

He twisted his waist and swung his arm, punching out straight for Little Tiger’s chest.

Fist wind blew!

Upon feeling the strength of the fist wind, Little Tiger’s smile froze.

He quickly pressed both hands down to put up a block in front of Lu Yuan’s fist.

Bang!

Little Tiger’s blocking hands hit his own chest due to the punch’s impact, and his countenance changed. His body kept backing off and he almost fell off the ring.

The intense pain caused his countenance to change drastically, turning a little pale.

After that, he raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of astonishment, not saying a word even after very long.

The mocking laughter from the audience came to a stop too. Everyone looked at Lu Yuan, who was twisting his wrist, then at Little Tiger, who was holding onto his chest. All of them exchanged glances.

“This… this beansprout has such great strength?”

“That can’t be real, right? This s*ssy has such speed? That fist wind… it is something.”

“…”

At this moment, Fu Langming grinned and said.

“Little Tiger, I forgot to tell you. This kid is a gene fighter. If you don’t wish to be beaten up until you’re bedridden, you better go all out.”

Little Tiger: “????”

He looked at the beaming Fu Langming, feeling stunned and looking like he was on the verge of tears.

“Gene fighter?! Brother Ming, why didn’t you tell me that earlier?!”

The other people also revealed astonished expressions, and their gazes when looking at Lu Yuan changed.

“To think that he is a gene fighter… no wonder.”

“If he’s a gene fighter, then it’s understandable that he has such power.”

Gene fighters were few in numbers to begin with, and they were even rarer in such slums.

Seeing a gene fighter here was as amazing as being able to see a panda.

All the audience sized up Lu Yuan with curious expressions.

Lu Yuan looked at Little Tiger who was rubbing his chest, and his expression slowly changed. He then smiled and said.

“Don’t worry. If I beat you up till you can’t get up, I won’t pay the medical fees either.”

Little Tiger grinned. “Beansprout, I underestimated you. But I don’t think that you’re a very strong gene fighter either, right? This power isn’t stronger than me.”

As he said this, he dashed out toward Lu Yuan.

“Then let me show you the difference in techniques!”

Fist, leg, elbow, knee—every part of Little Tiger seemed to have turned into a weapon, attacking Lu Yuan like a tempest.

Until one day ago, Lu Yuan hadn’t gotten into fights that much.

Hence, although he had practiced the Military Fist for a day, he had almost zero combat experience. Upon facing the tempest-like attacks, his pupils contracted abruptly and he could only keep on defending.

Suddenly, he was in a sorry state and had to keep backing off.

Thankfully, after he started cultivating, his power had increased a lot, seeming to be about the level of Little Tiger who often practiced fist techniques. Moreover, his mental power was probably stronger than Little Tiger because he could sharply detect the path of Little Tiger’s attacks.

Although he was in a sorry state and he’d still get punched occasionally, he was still able to forcibly hold off the attacks.

Bang bang bang!!!

The stifled sounds of fists and legs colliding rang out. The intense fight between the two of them caused the spectators to be immersed in it as well.

After being in a stalemate for a while, Lu Yuan suddenly moved to the side and dodged Little Tiger’s elbow attack. After that, he raised his kneecap and kicked the side of Little Tiger’s stomach.

As a result, Little Tiger’s countenance turned pale and he backed off a few steps.

All the spectators opened their eyes wide.

“To think that he is already able to retaliate?”

“That’s right. This kid’s power and speed are both about the same as Little Tiger, but the difference in their technique and experience is very big. Earlier on, he had been suppressed by Little Tiger, but it didn’t take him long before he started to retaliate.”

“Is this what a gene fighter is like? To think that they are so p*rverse!”

The spectators who had called Lu Yuan a s*ssy or beansprout earlier on started to change the way they called him as the fight progressed.

The capabilities that Lu Yuan had shown were enough to make many people look at him with admiration.

Fu Langming had been paying attention to Lu Yuan. Hence, when Lu Yuan made his first retaliation, he opened his eyes wide and grinned, mumbling in his heart.

(What horrifying learning and adaptive abilities! He must be born with such combat instincts, right?! In addition to that horrifying aptitude, what kind of monster has Madam Qinghe found?! This kid can probably be compared with the descendants from the big clans in the empire! To think that such a monster can come from the slums?! This must be a joke, right?)

He looked at Lu Yuan’s dodging figure and his gaze flickered.

(This won’t do. I must pull him to my side! I’ll go talk to Madam about this later on!)

As the fight continued, Lu Yuan’s retaliations became increasingly intense.

From being suppressed and beaten up by Little Tiger who had rich experience and techniques, gradually Lu Yuan became increasingly masterful of the Military Fist. He started to dodge and retaliate.

Now, every time Little Tiger hit Lu Yuan four times, Lu Yuan would be able to retaliate once.

This was inevitably a tremendous progress.

However, as the fight had gone on for a very long time, Lu Yuan and Little Tiger’s stamina were bottoming out.

The two of them kept on panting, and their movements weren’t in proper forms anymore. The power of their attacks had become weak as well.

At the sight of this, Fu Langming spoke up.

“Alright! Stop!”

Hearing this, Little Tiger stopped immediately.

However, Lu Yuan still swung out his fist, hitting Little Tiger in the face.

Little Tiger covered his face, which was becoming red and swollen at a rate that could be seen by the n*ked eye. He then opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Yuan.

“Weren’t we told to stop?!”

Lu Yuan rubbed the swollen patch on the corner of his lips, grinning in pain, but his gaze looked very innocent.

“I wasn’t able to draw back my punch.”

Hearing this answer, Little Tiger glared with his big eyes and opened his mouth, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

At this moment, Fu Langming crossed his arms in front of his chest and said, “Take a rest. We’ll continue again later!”

Little Tiger’s lips twitched and he asked, “Brother Ming, do I still have to spar with him?”

“Why?”

Right now, Little Tiger was looking at Lu Yuan and scratching his head speechlessly.

“If we continue, I’m afraid that I’ll be the one to get beaten up.”

There was no helping it. Lu Yuan’s performance was too atrocious. It had only been a little while, but he was already able to retaliate.

If he was given another afternoon, Little Tiger didn’t have the confidence that he’d be able to win against Lu Yuan.

In Little Tiger’s heart, Lu Yuan was like a monster.

Lu Yuan smiled. “It’s fine. I won’t pay for your medical fees.”

“How is that fine?!”

Little Tiger shouted, feeling dissatisfied.

Fu Langming patted Little Tiger’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll reimburse you for the medical fees.”

Little Tiger looked a little stunned at Fu Langming. He then tugged his lips and said in a crying tone.

“Thank you!”

Thereafter, Lu Yuan and Little Tiger got some rest.

During the break time, Lu Yuan circulated some spirit qi to clear his body’s fatigue. At the same time, he thought back on the parts that he didn’t do well during the earlier fight. He kept on learning from his lessons, wanting to improve.

Fu Langming was right.

Combat experience could really allow one to improve a lot in physical training technique. Lu Yuan’s progress was a lot faster than when he was practicing by himself.

He felt that it wouldn’t take long before he could grasp the Military Fist completely. The Military Swordplay would be next then.

Thereafter, he’d be able to enter the Land of Origins and search for a gene suitable for him. He’d be able to then engrave and record the gene as well as evolve it, moving onto the correct course.

In the afternoon, Lu Yuan and Little Tiger started sparring again.

This time around, there were even more spectators than before.

Everyone looked at the two people in the arena and whispered amongst themselves.

“Is this for real? To think that this beansprout can put up a fight against Little Tiger?”

“What beansprout?! Call him Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan is a gene fighter! His prospects will definitely be bright and limitless!”

“Putting aside how the future will be, it’s true that Brother Yuan is very amazing. In the morning, Little Tiger was still able to suppress Brother Yuan and beat him up with his rich experience. But how long has it only been? Brother Yuan has started to retaliate. Who amongst you will be able to compare with his learning abilities?”

“As expected of a gene fighter. Brother Yuan is really amazing. If Brother Yuan wants to become a gangster in the future, I wonder if I can join him and have him as my Boss?”

“You haven’t woken up, have you? As a gene fighter, won’t Brother Yuan have to battle against demonic beasts in the future? Won’t he have to battle it out against other races? Why would he play with people like us?”

Everyone found these words to be reasonable and all of them nodded.

The battle started once again.

However, it didn’t begin like the first round where Little Tiger could still suppress Lu Yuan. During the fight, Little Tiger could sense clearly that Lu Yuan’s flaws were getting increasingly fewer, and the pressure he was feeling was getting increasingly greater.

It wasn’t that long into the fight when Little Tiger’s forehead was covered in sweat.

In the morning, Lu Yuan was only able to retaliate about once after every four attacks.

Gradually, he was able to retaliate once after every three attacks.

Then two times.

In the end, the spectators noticed that Lu Yuan was already able to fight on par with Little Tiger. He no longer was on defense with some retaliation.

As time moved on, what everyone found unbelievable was that Lu Yuan started to suppress Little Tiger and beat him up.

Bang!

It wasn’t long before Lu Yuan consecutively jabbed out, as well as attacking with his elbows and knees. He caused Little Tiger to back off consecutively. In the end, Lu Yuan managed to grab hold of the chance and punched Little Tiger in the stomach.

Little Tiger’s face turned pale, and he fell to the ground while holding onto his stomach, letting out a deep moan.

The entire place sank into silence.

Everyone turned quiet and exchanged glances.

“He…. he won?!”

“Brother Yuan is amazing! To think that he managed to defeat Little Tiger in less than a day?!”

“As expected of my Brother Yuan! He’s too strong!”

Everyone cheered.

Little Tiger, who was lying on the floor and hearing everyone’s cheers, had his head filled with question marks.

He took a look at the spectators, his gaze filled with puzzlement.

He was a little stunned at his companions’ betrayal.

They had spent so much time together in the same dojo. Why?

Why did all these f*cking b*stards betray him?!

Fu Langming crossed his arms in front of his chest and smiled as he looked at Lu Yuan.

“Kid, you didn’t do too badly.”

Little Tiger who was lying on the floor: “??”

He suddenly felt like crying. He was a child nobody wanted.

Lu Yuan smiled. “Brother Ming, thank you for your praise. I still have a long way to go. I can only be considered to have passed when I can defeat you.”

Fu Langming nodded, expressing that what Lu Yuan said was right.

Lu Yuan: “…”

He was only acting humble but didn’t expect that Fu Langming had taken it for real.

He actually thought that he was pretty amazing. After all, he was able to practice the Military Fist to this stage within a day.

Next would be the Military Swordplay.

Fu Langming seemed to have seen through Lu Yuan’s thoughts and said.

“It’s already late. We’ll stop here for today. Come here tomorrow, I’ll teach you the sword.”

Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up and he said, smiling. “Alright, thank you Brother Ming.”
