What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Chapter 427 Preliminary Rounds

Good news also came from the starship group. Previously, they could only fly to neighboring star systems, but now, with new technological breakthroughs, they should be able to reach the home planet on their own.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Lu Yize successfully piloted a starship and completed a space jump, which was indeed far better than before in every aspect.

However, he did not rush to the main star. The main star's attitude towards them was subtle. They were not in a hurry to arrive before he was ready. Moreover, since he had stored that underwater nuclear source in his space.

Lu Yize discovered that his superpowers were improving rapidly. Of course, this might be related to the nuclear explosion in their world. Not only was his superpower cultivation speed increasing, but the same was true for everyone else in the base.

Those with good supernatural talent can improve their supernatural abilities much faster than before. He was stuck at the seventh level for three whole months before entering the eighth level. Moreover, it was only during this advancement that Lu Yize truly understood mental power.

As Lu Yize advanced, Jiang Yue stayed by his side. She was cultivating with her eyes closed when she inexplicably felt something icy cold constantly wrapping around her body. The binding force made Jiang Yue open her eyes.

When she opened her eyes, she found a pitch-black python coiled around her, its emerald green eyes fixed on Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue felt a sudden tremor in her heart and inexplicably sensed a very familiar aura emanating from the snake.

Lu Yize, standing to the side, propped himself up on his hand and watched Jiang Yue's reaction with great interest. She didn't move, but her nascent spiritual power had already recognized the snake before its master, constantly surging out from Jiang Yue's body and responding enthusiastically to the black python.

Jiang Yue noticed Lu Yize's reaction. She knew Lu Yize was possessive of her, but now Lu Yize could still watch with amusement.

She asked uncertainly, "Is this your mental power?"

She felt a strong sense of familiarity with this snake, as if Lu Yize had used his mental power to bind her tightly in the same space, refusing to let go, just like the python was doing now.

Lu Yize did not deny it, "Yes, once your mental strength reaches a certain level, you can make your mental strength mimic and choose the state that is closest to your own."

At this point, Lu Yize pinched Jiang Yue's hair, a hint of anticipation in his voice, "Jiang Yue, improve your mental strength as soon as possible, and let me see what your mental strength mimicry is."

Lu Yize, who is not usually very curious, was unusually curious and really wanted to know what Jiang Yue's mimicry looked like.

"I will try my best."

Jiang Yue was somewhat troubled, because it seemed that only those at the ninth level could possess mental mimicry, but Lu Yize's mental strength had been very strong from the beginning, so he became an exception and possessed the ability to mimic at the eighth level.

Mental mimicry isn't just for cuteness; it can directly attack a person's mental sea, and for those without mental mimicry, it's practically a form of mental torture.

After learning about these things, Lu Yize has been working to improve his superpowers as quickly as possible, as he wants to reach the ninth rank before arriving at the main star.

People of the same level cannot tell each other's ability level. Lu Yize did not want to reveal his strength so early. Besides, even on the main planet, he had never heard of a ninth-level being participating in the ability competition.

Firstly, there is an age limit; no one has ever reached the ninth rank at such a young age. Secondly, after reaching the ninth rank, one possesses mental mimicry, which puts them on a completely different level from those below the ninth rank.

Lu Yize also maliciously wanted to know how unbelievable those legendary main star people, those high and mighty alien races, would be if they really lost to someone as insignificant as him.

Oh, and he can also make a profit from the odds. As far as he knows, the betting volume on the main planet is much higher than what they are doing. Compared to that, their betting is just small-scale.

Although Lu Yize's advancement was not widely publicized, those close to him generally knew about it.

Morse, who had recently climbed to the peak of the sixth tier, stared blankly at the sky with a sense of despair. Damn it, this guy's ability level has risen too fast!

Back then, their ability levels were about the same, but now he's two levels ahead of him. If this continues, what will become of them? This can't go on! We have to go all out, absolutely!

Upon seeing this, Morse's robot son, perched on his shoulder, immediately exclaimed, "Morse is amazing! Morse is the best! Morse, if you train hard, reaching the seventh rank is not a dream!"

It has such a smooth tongue; I wonder how many instructions I've given it to make this little robot say so many nice things.

Chen Si felt like the sky had fallen. No, why are all of you climbing the power level so fast? Is it because I've been indulging in playing and eating lately and haven't been training properly? It seems like there's no place for me anymore!

Out of curiosity, Chen Si looked at Lu Yize and asked, "Are you still going to participate in the selection process within the base?"

"Participation is fair; no one should have special privileges." Lu Yize set the rules himself, so of course he had to follow them.

Upon hearing this, half of Chen Si's sky collapsed and then completely cracked open. "Huh? Does that mean the people who meet you are very unlucky? They go straight into the elimination zone? Don't say that. I'm just unlucky. I feel like the probability of me meeting you is very high."

Upon hearing this, Morse smiled and patted her shoulder to comfort her, "It's okay, there's still the revival round, Chen Si, hurry up, or you might really not even have a chance to go to the main star. I heard there are a lot of good things on the main star."

Upon hearing this, Chen Si became angry. "Forget it. I don't think there's anything good on the main star. The nutrient solution I bought before tasted awful. I wasted so many star coins on it."

Especially when she learned that all the nutrient solution was made from vegetable leaves from their base, she was furious. What a domestic-to-export, export-to-domestic conversion!

After doing this, great! The price doubled, doubled again, and doubled again. Chen Si now harbors deep resentment towards the nutrient solution.

What broke her even more was that two months later, when the venue was completed and the opponents were randomly selected by drawing lots, her words came true, and she was matched against Lu Yize.

Chen Si was thrown off the stage in less than a minute. The match was over before the audience even had a chance to warm their seats. The audience felt sorry for Chen Si, but there was nothing they could do. After all, she had to face their leader!

Sigh, though we lost, we still have a glorious defeat. Inside the base, a bunch of Lu Yize's die-hard fans are cheering and waving flags.

Chen Si almost broke down in tears. What kind of mess is this?! What kind of mess is this?! She knew that God was targeting her!
