"Martial Arts Evolution Path."
Lin Yuan's thoughts drifted, his expression briefly showing contemplation.
After the improvement, the potential of the Martial Arts Evolution Path had greatly increased. In addition to the Tai Chi Tao formed by the combination of Yin and Yang, Evolvers could choose their own paths and then combine them to form many branches.
Furthermore, the lower limit of the Martial Arts Evolution Path, accurately speaking, the threshold for cultivation, had been significantly reduced.
In simple terms, the adaptability was broader, and Evolvers who cultivated the Martial Arts had a greater hope of advancing to the third, fourth, and fifth ranks.
"Spreading the Evolution Path related to oneself, the more lives one cultivates, the more it can enhance certain aspects of one's foundation, exerting a driving effect on the future 'ultimate leap,'" Lin Yuan thought to himself.
The term "related to oneself" here could be like the Ancient God Evolution Path, imitating everything about the 'Ancient God.' It could also be like Lin Yuan, establishing a certain Evolution Path and then spreading it.
"Wisdom Goddess."
Lin Yuan actively connected to the Wisdom Goddess.
"Respected Level Five Citizen Lin Yuan, the Wisdom Goddess is pleased to serve you," came the solemn and cold voice of the Wisdom Goddess.
"I need to 'update' the Martial Arts Evolution Path," Lin Yuan said.
Since Lin Yuan had not yet created the sixth-tier segment of the Martial Arts Evolution Path, calling it an upload would be inaccurate. He had only improved the second, third, fourth, and fifth-tier segments, so using the term 'update' was more appropriate.
Next, Lin Yuan synchronized the improved Martial Arts Evolution Path with the Wisdom Goddess.
After the Wisdom Goddess accepted the Martial Arts Evolution Path, a mysterious space somewhere far from the Red Kun Main Star began to flicker rapidly on huge screens, frantically analyzing and deducing the latest Martial Arts Evolution Path.
"This Evolution Path is expected to advance to the eighth rank, re-evaluation initiated."
"Preliminary assessment: The latest Martial Arts Evolution Path has significantly lowered the cultivation threshold, and its maximum potential has increased."
"Initiating in-depth assessment."
"In-depth assessment: The difficulty of cultivation has shown a significant downward trend since the second-tier segment of the Martial Arts Evolution Path, analyzing the reason: this Evolution Path incorporates many energy systems into the body."
"In-depth assessment: Different energy fusion will produce unexpected variables, which may be worse or better."
"In-depth assessment: The evaluation of the Martial Arts Evolution Path has been upgraded, and the comprehensive potential has increased."
"In-depth assessment: The founder of this Evolution Path, personal security clearance has been raised to Nine Stars."
"Contact the Free Goddess and the Justice Goddess, re-evaluation in progress."
Red Kun Main Star.
On the central square.
Black Prison Mo's expression remained unchanged, but his inner anxiety grew.
"What does this Thirteenth Peak Master mean?"
"I've said I have a precious item to offer, but he won't see me?" Black Prison Mo's eyebrows trembled slightly.
He believed that his actions were flawless, coming here to apologize and seek an audience with the Thirteenth Peak Master; everything was reasonable.
There was no hint of abnormality.
Even if the Thirteenth Peak Master wouldn't forgive him, he should at least see him and ask what precious item he had to offer, right?
But now.
His act of contrition had not received any response at all.
"Wait a little longer, the Thirteenth Peak Master is probably completing the integration of the life imprint," Black Prison Mo settled his mind, suppressing the restlessness within.
Once the life imprint of the Thirteenth Peak Master was successfully integrated, even if he managed to kill him, the latter would be successfully 'resurrected' later.
Indeed, the powerful individual of the Insect Race had stated that regardless of whether he could completely kill the Thirteenth Peak Master, his people would receive ample benefits and corresponding resources afterward.
But if he could kill the Thirteenth Peak Master completely, it would likely be many years before the latter could be 'resurrected' by the human's most powerful individual.
Black Prison Mo had never considered using this to have the powerful individual of the Insect Race resurrect him.
Because it was simply impossible for the Insect Race to agree.
Even if the Insect Race agreed, Black Prison Mo would not believe it.
Thirteenth Peak Summit Palace.
After waiting for a while and finding that the Wisdom Goddess was still assessing the Martial Arts Evolution Path, Lin Yuan's consciousness connected to the virtual world and entered his personal space.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan glanced at the list of visitation requests.
He found it densely packed; at a rough glance, there were at least tens of thousands of citizens wanting to visit him. Moreover, this number was constantly increasing.
"The identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master does seem to be attracting a bit too much attention," Lin Yuan shook his head slightly and set the visitation limit to Sixth-rank Evolvers or his own relatives and friends.
Immediately, the visitation list emptied.
"My parents left me a message," Lin Yuan scanned the message list.
These messages were not call requests and wouldn't disturb Lin Yuan.
"It's time to meet them," Lin Yuan invited his parents and sister into his personal space.
In less than a moment, Lin Shoucheng, Lin Qiong, and Lin Yi appeared in the personal space.
"Brother," Lin Yi's eyes glowed with admiration as she looked at Lin Yuan.
Now standing in front of her was not just her brother, but also the Thirteenth Peak Master, someone whom countless fans in the Red Kun Star Domain desired to meet but couldn't.
"Little Yuan, these past few days on Canglan Star have been like a festival. Governor Song personally appeared to congratulate you on becoming the Thirteenth Peak Master. Many conglomerates even spent huge sums to hang up huge banners outside the planet," Lin Qiong said with a smile.
Lin Yuan smiled without saying a word.
Becoming the Thirteenth Peak Master did indeed have a profound impact on Canglan Star. Apart from many other benefits, Canglan Star might become a 'must-visit' destination in the entire Red Kun Star Domain in the future. Every year, countless tourists from various star domains might come to Canglan Star specifically to see the planet where the Thirteenth Peak Master once lived.
Just relying on tourism revenue, Canglan Star would likely earn a considerable amount.
Therefore, everyone on Canglan Star had to thank Lin Yuan.
"Little Yuan," Lin Shoucheng was excited, "Now my old Lin family can finally hold its head high. This isn't just any ordinary occasion. I wonder how many good deeds I did in my past life."
"The ancients said, 'When one person achieves enlightenment, even the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.' We're not just ascending, those big shots are practically kneeling at our doorstep," Lin Shoucheng reflected emotionally over the past few days.
Before, Lin Yuan's identity was merely that of a championship winner in the arena. But in the eyes of the top decision-makers on Canglan Star, he was only worth a passing glance, as they only valued Lin Yuan himself. But now, these big shots treated their family more warmly and respectfully than their own parents.
Lin Yuan smiled and listened to his parents and sister.
As the Thirteenth Peak Master, his power and influence in the Red Kun Star Domain were tremendous. Not to mention the conglomerate forces of Canglan Star, even one of the five major forces in the star domain like the Black Prison Family had to find ways to curry favor with him.
And Lin Yuan's family members would certainly receive all kinds of praises.
"Oh, Little Yuan," Lin Qiong seemed to remember something and took out a list, "Governor Song gave me a list to give to you. It contains the names of people who insulted you on the Internet because of the Black Prison Family incident."
In the interstellar civilization era, every citizen enjoyed freedom of speech. But this 'freedom of speech' was on the premise that it didn't harm other citizens. Strictly speaking, those who were insulted could be held accountable.
"Punish the leaders a bit, and let the others go," Lin Yuan glanced at it casually and said.
With the suppression intensity of the Black Prison Family at that time, and the guidance of public opinion, countless citizens might have been misled. If they were all held accountable, about one-tenth of the citizens of Canglan Star would suffer.
After chatting with his family for a while, Lin Yuan disconnected from the virtual world.
"Is the assessment almost complete?" Lin Yuan waited for the response from the Wisdom Goddess.
After a moment, the solemn voice of the Wisdom Goddess came, "Respected Level Five Citizen Lin Yuan, according to the final assessment, the 'updated' Martial Arts Evolution Path has significantly lowered its threshold and greatly increased its potential. Besides the original value of this Evolution Path, you will be rewarded with an additional five hundred thousand merit points."
"Five hundred thousand merit points," Lin Yuan was somewhat surprised. He had only updated the Martial Arts Evolution Path this time and hadn't uploaded any subsequent content for the Martial Arts Evolution Path. He thought that an award of around one to two hundred thousand merit points would be sufficient, but he didn't expect it to be five hundred thousand.
It should be noted that even if the first to fifth-tier segments of the Martial Arts Evolution Path were added together, they wouldn't come close to five hundred thousand merit points.
"The possibility of the Martial Arts Evolution Path advancing to the Sixth rank is ninety-five percent."
"The possibility of advancing to the Seventh rank has increased to thirty percent, and the possibility of advancing to the Eighth rank Evolution Path has increased to ten percent."
Lin Yuan also looked at the latest information on the Martial Arts Evolution Path.
"Well, the possibility of the Martial Arts Evolution Path advancing to the Sixth rank hasn't changed, it's still ninety-five percent," Lin Yuan nodded slightly, not finding anything strange.
A ninety-five percent chance of advancing to the Sixth rank was already quite high; most fifth-rank Evolution Paths had only a thirty to forty percent chance of advancing to the Sixth rank. Exceeding fifty percent could be considered extremely outstanding, let alone ninety-five percent.
"The possibility of advancing to the Seventh rank has increased by ten percent, and the possibility of advancing to the Eighth rank has increased by half a percent,"
Lin Yuan speculated that the reason for the increased possibility of the Martial Arts Evolution Path advancing to the Seventh and Eighth ranks was entirely due to the fact that it had undergone some kind of transformation and sublimation after incorporating various energy systems into the Martial Arts Evolution system.
"Let's take a look at the latest ranking of the Martial Arts Evolution Path."
Lin Yuan continued to check the updated information of the Martial Arts Evolution Path, glancing at the rankings column.
"Canglan Evolution List ranks first."
"Red Kun Evolution List ranks twelfth?"
Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly. If he remembered correctly, the Martial Arts Evolution Path was previously ranked fifty-third on the Red Kun Evolution List.
"Twelfth."
Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
If it were an ordinary Evolver, they might not understand what this meant. But as the Thirteenth Peak Master, Lin Yuan naturally understood the significance of being ranked among the top fifty on the Red Kun Evolution List.
The Red Kun Evolution List was divided into two tiers: the top fifty and the bottom fifty. The top fifty pathways were all seventh or even eighth-tier pathways, while the bottom fifty included seventh and sixth-tier pathways.
For the Martial Arts Evolution Path to break into the top fifty when it was still a fifth-tier pathway was already astonishing. After all, the top fifty pathways on the Red Kun Evolution List were either seventh or eighth-tier pathways.
But now.
The Martial Arts Evolution Path had actually made it into the top fifty, and even a relatively high position, twelfth.
It should be noted that the Martial Arts Evolution Path was still a fifth-tier pathway.
For a mere fifth-tier pathway to make it into the Evolution List, competing with seventh and eighth-tier pathways?
In the virtual world of the Red Kun Main Star.
In the central square area.
Many Evolvers and high-level citizens had gathered.
They conversed in low voices, and even after more than a year, the main topic of discussion on the square was still the Martial Arts Evolution Path.
There was no helping it.
The Martial Arts Evolution Path was just too extraordinary and unique.
The top one hundred pathways on the Red Kun Evolution List were all sixth, seventh, or eighth-tier pathways. It was rare to see a fifth-tier pathway mixed in, which naturally drew people's attention.
"I bet that when the sixth-tier segment of the Martial Arts Evolution Path is uploaded, its ranking will definitely rise again, breaking into the top fifty."
"No doubt. Right now, the Martial Arts Evolution Path is already ranked fifty-third. With the upload of the sixth-tier segment, its overall tier will increase. As long as the sixth-tier segment performs steadily, it might even break into the top thirty or twenty."
"The top fifty pathways on the Red Kun Evolution List are all seventh or eighth-tier pathways. If the Martial Arts Evolution Path can break into them with a sixth-tier segment, that's impressive."
Many Evolvers discussed rapidly.
Just then.
The Red Kun Evolution List began to refresh.
Hum.
The one hundred pathways on the Evolution List all blurred simultaneously.
All Evolvers on the square stared at the Evolution List with anticipation.
After several breaths.
The Red Kun Evolution List finished refreshing.
"Oh my god."
"The Martial Arts Evolution Path has broken into the top fifty."
"What do you mean top fifty? It's twelfth."
"It almost made it into the top ten."
"What's going on?"
"I thought that after It uploaded the sixth-tier segment, It could at least break into the top twenty or thirty."
"It seems I underestimated the scholar who developed this pathway."
"Let me see. What makes the sixth-tier segment of the Martial Arts Evolution Path so extraordinary that it can elevate the overall ranking from fifty-third to twelfth?"
Countless Evolvers entered the Martial Arts Evolution Path's purchase interface with anticipation and excitement.
But soon, they all discovered a horrifying scene.
The Martial Arts Evolution Path.
Had no sixth-tier segment.
