Chapter 223: Potential Test

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The main virtual world was like a pyramid with a total of ten levels.

A l-star cosmic citizen could only move within the 1-star world region. A

2-star cosmic citizen could move around in the 2-star world region, as well as the l-star world region, and so on.

Even the one-star world region was huge, with a diameter of one billion light-years, making it the size of ten Taishi Starfields.

At the center of the world region was a teleportation pillar that connected the upper and lower starfields. It was then divided into ring one, ring two, ring three…And the outermost ring ten.

The further out one went, the cheaper the prices of houses and goods.

“The main virtual world itself is the largest simulated reality world.” Wang Ye looked at the small houses, skyscrapers, and strange buildings around him. They were all unique.

There were many humans on the street, including those from the affiliated races. It was very lively.

The time flow here was 10:1 compared to the real world, so it was very popular as living in the main virtual world could extend one’s lifespan by ten times.

Wang Ye naturally wasn’t interested in buying a house here. Besides, he couldn’t afford it.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Instant teleportation.

Each teleportation was 1 light year.

Wang Ye followed the map and quickly found the nearest potential-testing door.

This was the entrance to the potential-testing area.

There were countless such entrances in the one-star world region.

“Thud.” Wang Ye stepped in.

It was like passing through a dimensional passageway. With the next step, he entered a majestic starry world.

He was surrounded by stars, but they were not real. They were humans who had come to test their potential like him.

There was no need to queue up. He could test his potential immediately.

Staircases had been built in the East, South, West, and North each, leading to the unknown sky.

They were the Warrior Stairway, the Ability User Stairway, the Willpower Stairway, and the Special Stairway.

“Potential testing is only for reference. Cultivating with your feet on the ground is the only way to become an expert.”

A bright notification appeared in front of him. It listed the meaning of each potential rating.

The nine-star potential mentioned by Zhi Danli meant that he could become a Black Hole-level expert.

However, there was almost no hope for him to obtain the high-dimensional strength of the cosmic and become an Undying Lifeform after challenging the reincarnation cycle.

To have potential beyond 9 stars was the highest rating in the potential-testing area.

“Let’s go to the Special Stairway first.” Wang Ye entered the north gate, where he could test if he had any special talents. Most of them were non-combat talents, such as spatial design, painting, and creativity.

If a special talent was detected on the Special Ladder, it was equivalent to having a stepping stone that could allow one to enter the main virtual world and learn the corresponding knowledge.

If he achieved something in his studies, he would be able to be accepted by the two super academies and rise to the top in a single step.

The stairway had 10086 steps.

With each step, it felt as if he had entered a unique realm. All kinds of scenes would appear in front of him.

It was a strange experience.

Wang Ye soon reached the top.

After crossing the last step, he returned to the potential testing area.

[Special Talent: None]

“As expected, I don’t have the talent for poetry and riding.” Wang Ye then stepped onto the second stairway, the Warrior Stairway!

The same 10086 steps tested his race, age, bloodline, muscle strength, cell activity, cosmic energy, dark substance fusion rate, and other comprehensive abilities of his body. It also tested his mastery of techniques, weapon control, and other aspects. Finally, his Potential Value would be calculated through big data.

The test was completed but the final result could not be calculated just yet as he still had to finish climbing the Ability User Stairway and the Willpower Stairway.

The three were closely related.

The Ability User Stairway!

Compared to the Warrior Stairway, the Ability User Stairway was much easier to climb.

According to Zhi Danli, this meant that his future path as an ability user would be relatively easier and he would have a higher upper limit.

The final stairway was the Willpower Stairway!

He had known this long ago.

According to Tieshan, only willpower was needed for humans to reach the cosmic level and the rest could be accumulated through resources.

Just climbing to the Willpower Stairway’s third step meant that one had reached the requirement to break through to the cosmic level.

The rules were different from the other three stairways.

Although there were also 10086 steps on the Willpower Stair, one could not complete all of them unless one possessed the highest level of willpower.

The stronger one’s willpower was, the more steps one could advance.

“Thud!” Wang Ye stepped onto the first step.

Virtual images filled his eyes like a dream. He quickly shook them off and soon saw the second step.

In an instant, his soul trembled slightly. A powerful energy pressed down like a mountain.

Wang Ye’s expression remained unchanged as he stepped onto the third step.

Cosmic Lifeforms were definitely above the Willpower Stairway’s third step. As for Dark Energy Lifeforms, their willpower had to reach more than the tenth step!

The fourth step.

The fifth step.

Wang Ye was very fast.

It wasn’t until the eighth step that he started to get obstructed, but he still managed to pass through smoothly.

The ninth step!

The pressure on his willpower descended like a lightning tribulation, and it rumbled, seemingly about to shatter his soul.

Every time the bombardment stopped him, Wang Ye would resist the powerful pressure and force his way through.

The tenth step!

Wang Ye, who thought that there would be a stronger pressure, was stunned.

Many beautiful women with top-notch figures from various races appeared in front of him. They were graceful and charming, playing hard to get…

Wasn’t this even better than the Small World N0.8?

The Willpower Stairway understood him too well. It knew that this was the weakest point of his willpower, so such an illusion appeared on the tenth step.

It was hard to resist temptation, especially for a hot-blooded man. It was simply against human nature!

“Next time.” Wang Ye suppressed his desire and passed through the barrier.

The eleventh step!

After his life level had increased, his willpower had improved by quite a bit. He wanted to see which level he could reach.

The requirement for a Super Star Lifeform was to reach the 30th step of the Willpower Stairway.

He didn’t go that far.

Even though he had passed the tenth step, he still failed at the fourteenth.

[Willpower Potential: 8 stars]

Such a high evaluation?

Wang Ye was surprised.

An 8-star willpower potential meant that he could improve his willpower to the Black Hole level.

“I’m only a low-grade Cosmic Lifeform now, but I’ve already reached the 13th step, which means my willpower is almost at the level of a low-grade Dark Energy Lifeform. That’s why I have such a high rating.”

Willpower would change with experience, tempering, and the increase in life level.

The 13th step was only temporary.

As his potential score from the Willpower Stairway appeared, his potential scores as a warrior and an ability user were also displayed.

[Warrior potential: 3 stars.]

[Ability user potential: 5 stars]

Wang Ye was surprised.

He did not expect that his potential as a warrior was only 3 stars because he was almost a level 3 cosmic warrior.

3-stars potential meant that he couldn’t break through the cosmic-level boundary.

Even with an 8-star willpower potential, he was deemed unable to break through the cosmic level. The problem was clearly with his body.

“The acquired perfect gene is indeed inferior to the innate perfect gene.”

Wang Ye finally understood why a four-star life planet was considered a colony planet and a five-star planet was considered territory. Only those born on six-star life planets were considered ordinary humans.

There was a huge difference between the beings’ upper and lower limits.

His body was indeed ordinary, not even particularly outstanding on Blue Planet. Moreover, he did not have a bloodline.

His current level was completely brought up by his cheat.

At the New Star level, his speed of improvement as a warrior was no longer as fast as his improvement as an ability user. It was even more obvious at the cosmic level.

The fusion between his body and cosmic energy was not high, so it would consume more resources.

Wang Ye didn’t belittle himself just because of this, nor would he give up.

Only by taking the potential test and recognizing oneself could one improve in a more targeted manner.

Potential was just a number. Being down-to-earth was the only way to become a powerhouse.

“I have to start from three aspects. Firstly, the evolution technique. It must be upgraded at the bottleneck. Only then will there be a chance for me to break through the two barriers to become an intermediate cosmic warrior, then an advanced cosmic warrior.”

“Secondly, 1 need to prepare for the breakthrough from the peak of cosmic level 9 to the Dark Energy level in advance. 3-stars potential means that 1 can’t break through normally, so without considering any miraculous opportunities, 1 need money to prepare resources and treasures.”

“The last thing is my bloodline. It’s very important. No matter how perfect my plan is, 1 might stop at the Dark Energy level in the end, and my cultivation speed won’t be too fast. If I want to turn the tables, the bloodline 1 absorb is crucial. 1 shouldn’t choose a battle-type bloodline. I need a bloodline that can increase my upper limit and cultivation speed!”

Wang Ye was very aware that compared to his warrior talent, his talent as an ability user was obviously higher. He could break through to the Dark Energy level.

He had long known this.

That being said, a 5-star potential meant that it would be very difficult for him to become a Super Star ability user.

“It should be related to dark energy or the upper limit of my body.” Wang Ye thought for a moment. “There’s no rush now. I’ll think about it after I become a Dark Energy-level lifeform.”

Currently, his main breakthrough direction was towards the cosmic level warrior.

With the cheat to add points, he was not worried.

One step at a time.

He was not a genius, not on the Blue Planet, nor in the vast cosmic.

However, he still believed that his future would be bright.

Man could conquer nature!

Wang Ye copied the entrance to the Willpower Stairway into his small world.

With his current cosmic citizen level, he couldn’t move the other three stairways.

Following this, he searched for the Azure Mountain Small World, then looked for Nante and Lingling’s citizen numbers and added them as friends.

They weren’t cosmic citizens but citizens registered in the Azure Mountain Small World.

They could not enter other small worlds on their own accord, but he could invite them to enter.

“Blue Planet Small Planet?” Lingling, who was dressed in white, was full of surprise.

Nante flew around and looked around. “This is too big. There’s no end to it.”

“The newly created one-star small world only has a diameter of 10,000 kilometers,” Wang Ye said. “It can’t be compared to the Azure Mountain Virtual World. However, you won’t be restricted in my virtual world. You’ll have more freedom. When the time comes, I’ll bring over the functions that I can replicate from the main virtual world.”

In the Azure Mountain Virtual World, many functions were limited by one’s citizen level.

“What is this?” Nante pointed at the only entrance.

“The Willpower Stairway that tests your willpower potential. You can give it a try,” Wang Ye said. “Also, find a place to build a house using the free templates. You can choose any place you want.”

“Alright!” Nante rushed in impatiently.

Lingling, on the other hand, began to build her house in high spirits.

In the Azure Mountain Virtual World, just like the main virtual world, all houses were charged.

“Brother-in-law, why did you name it Blue Planet Small World?” Lingling asked as she built.

“Because I hope that Blue Planet can become a cosmic nation in the future.” Wang Ye smiled. “I hope I can buy it as soon as possible. Then, with the Blue Planet Small World as a starting point, the people on Blue Planet can gradually step into the cosmic.”

“You’re really ambitious.” Lingling wrinkled her nose. “It’ll never succeed!”

“Who knows?” Wang Ye shrugged..
