Chapter 1322: Chapter 546: Black Snake Ascension, All Members Level 5_2

To outsiders, it seemed like Wang Tao had won against Cheng Yiyi using his rich combat experience, catching her off guard and securing a narrow victory.

This aligns with everyone’s expectations; after all, Wang Tao ascended to Level 5 earlier, so it’s natural that he’s stronger.

However, from Cheng Yiyi’s perspective, since she understands Wang Tao very well, she distinctly felt that Wang Tao had held back his strength significantly.

This left Cheng Yiyi feeling a bit let down. She hadn’t intended to beat Wang Tao; she simply wanted to catch up to him, but why did the gap seem to be growing even wider?

But Cheng Yiyi isn’t the type to dwell on setbacks; she quickly bounced back. So there’s a gap, just chase it! Whether she catches up or not, as long as she tries her hardest, she won’t have any regrets.

"I admit, I’m still far behind you. But I will keep trying, and when we’re both at Level 6, I’ll challenge you again!"

Cheng Yiyi approached Wang Tao and spoke softly yet firmly.

"...Okay, I’ll wait for you."

Wang Tao responded with a smile.

In truth, he wanted to say that if Cheng Yiyi reached Level 6, he’d probably be at Level 7... But there was no need; although teasing Cheng Yiyi was fun, too much could be overkill. It was better to leave her some hope.

Wang Tao didn’t stay long at City Hall. After saying goodbye to Cheng Yiyi, Gu Yun, and others, he made his way to the Awakeners School.

Shortly after arriving at the school, Blacky and the rest woke up first.

[HP:260,000/260,000]

[Mana:200,000/200,000]

[Level: Level 4, Lord]

[Awakening: Death’s Entwine]

Their HP and Mana had doubled, their rank had changed from Elite to Lord, and their awakening was the same as Blacky’s: Death’s Entwine.

"Not bad at all!"

Wang Tao nodded in satisfaction.

However, one issue was a bit of a hassle; their body size had become as large as Blacky’s, as thick as a human waist. With such a large size, it was okay here, but it would be inconvenient at home.

It looks like they’ll have to live at the Awakeners School like Blacky from now on. After all, the school provided plenty of good food and comfort.

A little while later, Blacky also woke up.

When Blacky woke up, its body size began to increase. In the blink of an eye, it was as thick as a water tank, similar to that Catastrophic Serpent from before.

Such a body size was indeed imposing; some people not far away got a bit uneasy walking past Blacky at this size.

"Ssssss~"

Blacky excitedly approached Wang Tao and bumped its massive head against him.

"Alright, alright, settle down."

Wang Tao, somewhat helpless, patted Blacky’s head, then checked its attributes.

[HP:520,000/520,000]

[Mana:500,000/500,000]

[Level: Level 5, Lord]

[Awakening: Death’s Entwine]

After Blacky ascended to Level 5, its HP had also reached over half a million. This strength was quite good among Level 5 creatures, and creatures like Level 5 Night Demons were no match for Blacky.

In theory, Blacky teamed up with Wang Tao could bring great results. But unfortunately, its size was too big for Wang Tao’s usual light traveling, making it inconvenient. So, it would be better if it stayed with the students of the Awakeners School, turning it into a guardian spirit for the school. With Blacky there, the safety of the students would be greatly ensured.

After playing with Blacky and the others for a while, Wang Tao made another trip to City Hall. The twelve volunteers were about to awaken.

This matter was of great interest to Wang Tao; as long as there were no problems with these twelve volunteers, then the gene potion developed by Qu Shilin would be completely successful.

When Wang Tao arrived at City Hall, he saw Qu Shilin there as well.

"Blacky and the others didn’t have any issues, right? I was so engrossed in research, I lost track of time..."

Qu Shilin said somewhat embarrassedly; she had originally planned to go see Blacky with Wang Tao but got carried away.

"Don’t worry, everything went perfectly. They all succeeded."

"That’s a relief!"

Reassured by Wang Tao’s confirmation, Qu Shilin clenched her little fists.

The two went to the conference room, where Gu Yun and the others were also present, eagerly watching the twelve volunteers lying there.

Soon, the three volunteers with the lowest strength were the first to wake up.

[HP:200/200]

[Mana:100/100]

[Level: Level 1]

These three individuals were originally ordinary people with only 100 HP and no Mana. Now, they had become Level 1 Awakeners with 200 HP and 100 Mana. Most importantly, they had no internal impurities, which was excellent.

The Level 1 gene potion was a success!

There were no individuals below Level 3 present, and they all could feel the Level 1 aura emanating from these volunteers. Instantly, everyone began clapping excitedly.

Wang Tao was curious; these people had not used a Crystal Core, so what Ability had they learned after becoming Ability Users?

Therefore, Wang Tao conducted a test and found that their Ability was passively enhancing their physical capability. Compared to before, their physical attributes were several times stronger.

This Ability might seem mediocre, but for them, it was quite good.

Because for low-level Ability Users who merge with fewer Crystal Cores and have lower HP and Mana, even if they possessed active Abilities, they couldn’t use them frequently enough to demonstrate their power. In contrast, this passive enhancement of physical capabilities was more suitable for them. After all, it didn’t consume Mana and the enhancement was permanent.

Soon, the three volunteers who used the Level Two potion also woke up.

[HP:5000/5000]

[Mana:1000/1000]
