Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Second Evolution

Translator: 549690339

When Jack returned home, Glenn had already cleaned a plate of fish meat.

“Bro, the Mutated Beast you’re raising is eating more than me, and it’s getting bigger and bigger. Won’t it eat up our house at this rate?” Glenn was worried.

He felt that their diet had been getting worse lately, and it should all be because of the Mutated Beast his brother was raising.

In the past, he could eat his fill of meat every day, but since more than half a month ago, although there was still meat every day, it seemed to run out after just a few bites, leaving only vegetables on the plate.

During this time, he could only eat a little more when he cooked for himself, which was one of the reasons he actively went home to cook every day.

Thinking of this, Glenn, for the sake of his own stomach, suggested, “Bro, why don’t we eat the Mutated Beast? I heard its meat is very nourishing.”

Jack glanced at him with a strange look, “This suggestion sounds good. What flavor do you think would be delicious?”

Glenn’s eyes lit up, thinking it was a possibility, and excitedly suggested, “Bro, I think barbecue flavor and garlic flavor would be more fragrant, and of course, spicy flavor would work too.”

“Bro, wait a minute, I’ll get a knife.” Glenn excitedly ran back to the kitchen, picked up the cleaver, and was about to go upstairs to kill the Six-legged Salamander.

Jack said irritably, “You really thought I was serious? Put the knife down.”

“Ah? Bro, we’re not eating it?” Glenn was disappointed.

Jack waved his hand, “All you think about is food. This is the Mutated Beast I raised myself.”

“But your concern is not unreasonable. This Mutated Beast’s appetite has been increasing lately. I plan to release it in a few days.”

“…Let it go.” Glenn suddenly felt it was such a waste.

What a waste, that’s Mutated Beast meat…

“Alright, don’t be upset.”

Jack patted his shoulder, “You’re still young and don’t understand some things. Just listen to me, go cook our dinner.”

“Alright.”

Although Glenn didn’t know why his brother wanted to release the beast, his trust in him since childhood kept him from overthinking it.

Not caring about Glenn’s tangled thoughts, Jack took the plate of fish meat to the second floor.

In the room, the Six-legged Salamander that had grown to sixty-eight centimeters in length lay on the floor, looking more and more majestic, especially with the three pairs of red feather horns on both sides.

Whether it was because it had evolved or simply grown, the Six-legged Salamander’s vision had improved significantly.

Through the Salamander’s low-angle view, Jack could clearly see his own appearance and the room’s furnishings, although everything appeared enormous and oppressive.

After making sure his Avatar was full and satisfied, Jack cultivated once more before going to bed.

…

The next day, on the way to school, there were still enforcers around. It seemed that the two cultists hadn’t been caught yet. Jack thought about it.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he found it much busier than usual. Everyone was discussing the upcoming ranking competition.

A few students who had just established their Foundation were complaining about the unfairness. They had only just entered the First Layer Heaven a few days ago, while many classmates had been cultivating for half a month.

In such a situation, they would be far behind in terms of basic physique and skill mastery, with no hope of standing out.

Compared to them, those who had broken through half a month ago were excited, rubbing their hands with anticipation, believing that this was their chance to become famous at school.

With everyone at the First Layer Heaven, they felt that if they tried their best, they might have a chance to make it into the Top 50.

As for those who had not yet established their Foundation, they could only watch enviously.

“I think Class Leader Crystal should have no problem making it into the top ten this time.”

“You’re underestimating Class Leader. I think she has a chance to make it into the top five. Yesterday afternoon at the sparring training, Class Leader defeated Bryant and two others in a joint clash.”

“Yeah, I think Class Leader has the strength to make it into the top five. Her sword skills are amazing.”

Many classmates gathered around Crystal, who sat in the front row, admiring her for overpowering three classmates in a joint effort during yesterday afternoon’s training.

After Jack’s and Justin’s battle yesterday afternoon, Crystal and the others had also noticed the issue of actual combat experience.

So yesterday afternoon, she called all the Foundation Establishment students in the class together in her capacity as Class Leader.

She claimed that it was to improve the overall strength of the class so that they could achieve good results in the upcoming ranking competition and organized the actual combat training.

Most people had no objection to this suggestion, and they had all been itching to test their skills. So, the sparring during their afternoon training was lively.

“I think Matt has a chance to make it into the top ten this time. He’s a genius who reached Foundation Establishment in just three or four days, like Crystal.”

“That’s right, Matt is very strong too. In yesterday’s training, Justin was easily defeated by him. He’s definitely making it onto the list.”

“Haha… You guys flatter me. My strength is actually average. Yesterday, I only won by a lucky chance.”

“And besides, we’re all still students, so the priority is friendship. It doesn’t really matter how we rank. As long as we learn from each other and make progress, that’s enough.”

Jack sat down in his seat and looked at Justin in front of him with a puzzled expression, “What happened? You even got beaten by the class council member yesterday?”

Justin felt wronged, “I wasn’t beaten, we just sparred a bit, and besides, I hadn’t fully recovered from my injuries after fighting you, so I just lost a couple of moves.”

“Really?” Jack felt that he was just being stubborn.

After fighting Justin yesterday, Jack had found a Personal Cultivation Room to focus on cultivating the Dragon Elephant Power, so he hadn’t participated in the training.

At this time, Jack asked curiously, “Justin, what do you think about Matt and Crystal’s strength?”

Justin hesitated for a moment, “…Very strong. I haven’t practiced with Crystal, but I don’t think I’m her match. Her aggressive and fierce swordsmanship particularly counters mine.”

“As for Matt, he’s just a little bit stronger than me.”

“I understand.” Jack nodded slightly in agreement.

Although Justin spoke insincerely, these early breakthrough Foundation Establishment geniuses were indeed very strong, able to suppress students like him who also cultivate Advanced Skills.

Wuwuwu! At this time, a whimpering sound came from the front.

Justin quickly turned back to console, “Ah Yue, it’s okay. Even if you can’t cultivate True Martial Arts, you can still go to a prestigious university.”

“Look, General Emma Louise isn’t any different. She didn’t practice True Martial Arts either, but now at only thirty years old, she has become a Federation Major General. Let me tell you…”

Not only was it the girl who sat in front of Justin.

While the excited Martial Cultivation students were discussing the ranking competition, the emotions of the classmates who were still at the Sixth and Seventh Stages after nearly a month of cultivation were quite low.

Jack saw this but could do nothing. Talent wouldn’t change because you were unhappy with it.

Moreover, they were already lucky. They had the opportunity to systematically learn True Martial Arts in high school.

In some allied countries, information about True Martial Arts and cultivation resources were controlled by the upper class, and ordinary people had no chance to access them. This was also the reason why these small countries had become more chaotic in recent years.

After all, not everyone is content to be at the bottom for a lifetime.

At four o’clock, with the sound of the school bell, Jack slowly opened his eyes and prepared to go home.

For the first time since he started cultivating True Martial Arts, he left school this early to go home. The reason was very simple – his Avatar was about to begin its second evolution.
