Evolving infinitely from ground zero

[Name: Lin Zichen]

[Age: 16]

[Biological Level: Common (Fifth Order)]

[Biometric Attributes: Use It or Lose It, Divine Human Wisdom Root, Survival of the Fittest, Blessing of Melting Water, Survival of the Fittest, Eye of the Sky]

Before I knew it, I had already acquired six biological skills.

My biological level had also evolved to Common Tier Five.

And now, I am only 16 years old.

Looking at the personal attributes panel in front of me, Lin Zichen felt a slight exhilaration inside, believing that his future was promising.

With such a growth rate, he was sure to become a shining star of humanity, a sanctified being in the flesh adorned with various powerful biometric attributes.

By then, whether it be the prodigies of Capital City or mechanical genius girls, they would all pale in comparison.

He spent a moment entertaining these thoughts.

Soon, Lin Zichen gathered his thoughts and headed towards the rooftop of the building where the mall was located to experience the effects of the Eye of the Sky.

In no time, he arrived on the rooftop and stood at its highest point, surveying the surroundings.

Wherever his gaze fell, everything was seen with utmost clarity.

He could see a mosquito flying dozens of meters high in the sky.

He could see every person walking down on the street below.

He could see a man and a woman struggling inside a window hundreds of meters away.

The man and woman who were struggling suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, sensing that they had been targeted by some terrible presence, that they were prey waiting to be slaughtered.

The man, thinking that he was being spied on with binoculars, immediately got out of bed, flipped the middle finger angrily towards the outside of the window, and then quickly pulled the curtains shut.

"Whether it's the range of vision or the dynamic capturing ability, both have far exceeded human limits, the vision of birds of prey is truly formidable," Lin Zichen mused as he recalled the vivid scenes he had just witnessed from afar.

Leaving the rooftop.

He returned to the place downstairs where Exotic Beast Meat was sold.

As Lin Zichen walked and looked around, he eventually stopped in front of a freezer labeled "Stealth Dragon."

The Ferocious Great Eagle album had been unlocked, and now he needed to start the next Exotic Beast Album.

The biometric attributes of the Stealth Dragon had piqued his interest.

About the Stealth Dragon, although the name contained the word "dragon," it actually wasn't the dragon as most people thought, but a lizard famous for its ability to conceal itself.

It could reduce the vitality and breath within its body to a minimum, thus lowering its presence to facilitate hunting or avoid natural predators.

Being adept at concealment meant it was difficult to capture.

Therefore, Stealth Dragon meat was very expensive, priced at 8888 yuan per 500 grams.

8888 yuan times 100, that was nearly 900,000 yuan.

With royalties at 100,000 yuan a month, it would take almost a year to save enough to unlock the Stealth Dragon album.

It was expensive, but there was a reason for its price.

Lin Zichen, attracted by the biometric attribute of being adept at concealment, decided that the next Exotic Beast Album to be unlocked would be that of Stealth Dragon.

Once he had saved up the 900,000 yuan from the novel royalties, he would come here to purchase and devour the meat.

...

Time flew by, and before long, it was the end of December.

Today was Friday, and in the evening, Shanhai High School's annual Top Ten Campus Singers competition was about to begin.

In the monotonous and dull high school life, the appearance of such an entertaining competition immediately attracted a large number of students to come and watch.

Many students chose not to go home after school, opting to solve their dinner in the cafeteria or outside the school gates before heading to the playground to watch the singing competition.

Besides students and teachers, there were also quite a few parents present at the scene.

Most of them were residents living nearby the school, who came over to join the fun after dinner out of boredom.

A small portion of them were parents of the contestants who had specifically come to cheer on their children.

As a contestant, Shen Qinghan's parents, Shen Jianye and Xu Meng, were both there, already sitting and waiting to cheer her on as she took the stage.

Lin Zichen's parents, Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin, were also present. They had long since regarded Shen Qinghan as their own daughter and made it a point to be there to support her.

As for Shen Qinghan and Lin Zichen, they were both backstage preparing.

Shen Qinghan, one of the contestants, was sitting in front of a mirror getting her makeup done.

And the person doing her makeup was none other than Lin Zichen.

Looking at the scene before her, Li Chuxin couldn't help but exclaim with a face full of disbelief,

"Zi Chen, you're a boy and you even know how to do makeup, that's amazing, like an all-capable male god!"

"I used to be naughty as a kid, always stealing my mom's makeup to play with, making all kinds of mess on Han Han's face. Messing around eventually taught me a bit," Lin Zichen explained.

Sitting in front of him getting her makeup done, Shen Qinghan thought to herself, "Liar."

Xiao Chen, you never just made a mess! The first time you did makeup, it looked so good that Aunt Xin and mom laughingly praised you as a genius.

"Genius really is different, just playing around as a kid and you're already on par. As for me, I've been learning makeup with my mom since sixth grade, but my technique isn't even a tenth as good as yours," Li Chuxin admitted with a touch of defeat.

Lin Zichen was too talented.

In just this short half semester of high school, be it domains traditionally excelled by males or those preferred by females, he could exhibit an extremely exaggerated talent in both.

So exaggerated that it made one lose any desire to pursue, leaving only a deep sense of inadequacy, along with a thoroughly helpless skepticism about life.

"Zi Chen, after you finish doing Han Han's makeup, could you do mine as well? The makeup you did for Han Han is really pretty, and I want to have makeup that looks just as good..." Li Chuxin pleaded with her eyes.

Lin Zichen wanted to decline, but before he could speak, Shen Qinghan, who was sitting in front of him, said, "Of course you can, we're the closest group of friends in the class."

Seeing that Shen Qinghan had spoken, Lin Zichen no longer declined, and smiled at Li Chuxin, "Sure, I'll do your makeup later."

"Thank you, Zi Chen, thank you, Han Han!"

Li Chuxin wasn't sure how much of an impact Shen Qinghan's words just had, but she figured that thanking both was the right thing to do.

After all, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were a known pair at the school.

This was common knowledge.

About ten or so minutes later, Lin Zichen had finished doing Shen Qinghan's makeup.

At this moment, Shen Qinghan's eyebrows were finely arched, her eyes were shimmering, her lips small and rosy, and a light peach blush was applied to her cheeks, making her look utterly charming.

Even Lin Zichen, who had personally done this beautiful makeup, was stunned for a moment by the sight.

"Why are you continuously staring at me..."

Feeling a bit overwhelmed by Lin Zichen's gaze, Shen Qinghan's face grew hot and red. She had to turn her face away and look to the side, her small hand awkwardly fiddling with her hair.

Lin Zichen smiled and candidly said, "Because you're beautiful."

These words struck Shen Qinghan right in her heart, leaving her both delighted and shy.
