Chapter 174: Chapter 134 New Year’s GiftJi Xinghuo spoke truthfully, "I just advanced to an Advanced Mutant a few days ago." "Holy shit!" Zhong Ming blurted out a swear word. He was a year older than Ji Xinghuo, who became a Mutant at nineteen and spent three years just to reach the Intermediate level. Now at twenty-five, he felt he was still far from becoming an Advanced Mutant, at least another two years of cultivation, and that was with the full support of the club. But Ji Xinghuo had reached Advanced Mutant status in just about a year and a half, not only catching up from behind but far surpassing him! Ye Dongyun and the others were also dumbfounded. In this era, even though the proportion of Mutants was still very low, everyone had some understanding of the difficulty of Mutants’ evolution. And with two Mutants in the family, they were immersed in the environment and often paid attention. Thus, they were all well aware of how exaggerated it was for Ji Xinghuo to become an Advanced Mutant in such a short time, indicating a talent that was unparalleled globally! "Second brother, you’re already an Advanced Mutant!" the youngest Wang Zizhen muttered, "Is cultivation really this easy?" He just couldn’t bear the hardships of training, so he lay flat early and gave up the idea of becoming a Mutant. Zhong Ming listened and shook his head helplessly. "Indeed, it’s not hard," Ji Xinghuo said with a smile, "Zizhen, you’re still young, it’s not too late to start working hard now, I will provide you with cultivation resources." The talents of the three brothers were actually quite good. The fifth brother just lacked willpower; if that could be remedied, there was a great hope of him becoming a Mutant.

"Third brother, what about me?" Liangqiu Feiyan, shaking Ji Xinghuo’s arm, coaxed, "I haven’t fused with an Alien Species yet, maybe I could also become a Mutant, would you sponsor me?" Ji Xinghuo replied, "If your total running distance this month reaches five hundred kilometers, whatever Alien Species you want, I’ll get it for you." "Really?" Liangqiu Feiyan was full of hope, "Can you also get a Transcendent Ability?" "Yes!" Ji Xinghuo gave a very affirmative promise. But he knew the chances of Liangqiu Feiyan achieving it were next to zero; her personality was not suitable for training, she couldn’t even run five kilometers. Her talent was not in cultivation and combat, she was better suited to the entertainment industry. "Forget it," Liangqiu Feiyan shook her head with self-awareness, "I won’t bother you, third brother." "Hahaha..." The whole family laughed. Ye Dongyun said, "Xinghuo, you’re now the most promising one in our family. I never expected that someone from our family could climb the Global Ladder. I saw it the other day and thought it was someone with the same name as you, it wasn’t until I read the news that I dared to confirm it was you." "Yeah," Zhong Ming also felt it deeply and curiously asked, "Did you really fight with the Legendary Dagon people?" He had wanted to ask this question three months ago. The global Ladder files for Mutants, as well as the interviews with Jing Ji, all mentioned that Ji Xinghuo and three others had joined forces to kill a legendary fighter but didn’t describe the specific process. Moreover, at that time, Ji Xinghuo was just an Intermediate Mutant. Zhong Ming, who had been in Class B League for three years and fought hundreds of matches, mostly against Advanced Mutants, was already under immense pressure, losing more than winning. He was acutely aware of the terrifying strength of legendary fighters. He couldn’t imagine how an Intermediate Mutant could participate in a fight with a legendary fighter, survive, and even win! "It’s a long story, it was also an accident, very dangerous," Ji Xinghuo didn’t know how to explain for a moment. Ye Dongyun seemed to sense his reluctance to talk more and got up, beckoning, "Xinghuo hasn’t even sat down since he got home, and you’re all asking him questions. The holidays are still long, with plenty of time to spare. Little brother, have you had lunch yet? What do you want to eat, I’ll cook it for you right now." Ji Xinghuo touched his stomach and said with a smile, "I’m indeed somewhat hungry, anything is fine." "Then I’ll make the mutton stew with bread you’ve loved since you were little." "Thank you, big sister." Ye Dongyun walked into the kitchen and busied herself efficiently. She was the best cook in the family; though she didn’t do it often, every family gathering saw her cooking up a storm for her younger siblings. Liangqiu Feiyan also brought some snacks for Ji Xinghuo, asking him to sit down and rest. Ji Xinghuo undid his Weapon Equipment, casually tossing it aside, and took off his Taoist Armor as well, entering the bathroom to freshen up. After washing up, Zhong Ming had prepared new clothes for him. The two were about the same size, and they fit perfectly. "Whew..." Ji Xinghuo changed into the clothes, reclined on the sofa, and let out a sigh, "Earth really is the best, everything’s so convenient." Zhong Ming laughed, "Your experiences in the Star Realm must have been amazing." "But also very dangerous," Ji Xinghuo nodded. "I can imagine," Zhong Ming sighed and said, "Any Mutant who really wants to go further on the path of evolution will sooner or later have to enter the Star Realm; you’ve taken a step ahead of me. Club Mutants also venture to the Star Realm during the off-season, but only a few." "Are you also considering it?" Ji Xinghuo asked. "I’ve thought about it, but I haven’t made up my mind," Zhong Ming’s expression was complex, "You might laugh, but I’m actually afraid of dying, I don’t dare take the risk." Ji Xinghuo felt he could understand, "That’s very normal." Zhong Ming, however, thought otherwise, "My initial plan was to accumulate strength and finances through professional leagues, and then enter the Star Realm when I was sure. But after I really entered the league, I realized it’s very difficult. Competitive Mutants perform well and earn both fame and fortune, so why go to the Star Realm and risk their lives?" "Just play the matches well, earn a lot of money, and directly buy the Alien Species you want. As long as you have the money, you can buy anything you want."
