Is his talent that poor?

That was the thought in everyone’s mind, including Fei Long’s. After all, he believed Yang Kong’s conclusion and it sounded reasonable.

Fortunately, Tang Ling had still passed. He thought that Tang Ling would fail when the first halo only lit up after five minutes.

“Passing is good enough. Wake him up after three minutes.” Fei Long ultimately decided to pull Tang Ling out.

The maximum duration a Purple Moon Warrior could endure was 40 minutes, so he did not want Tang Ling to take the risk. Truth be told, there were indeed some who could last longer, but it was not within Fei Long’s consideration.

‘Maybe he already knew his level of talent but is too stubborn to give up,’ Fei Long thought.

Since he admired Tang Ling a lot, he tended to lean towards the better things.

Tang Ling had no idea that he was deemed a feeble talent by the others. He was still wandering in the mist, trying to move forward out of grievance.

However, he was exhausted. All he could do was stumble around, allowing the yearning and helplessness to torture himself.

There was another instinct that told him he would not survive in the mist for long, so even if he insisted on staying, it would be nothing but a futile attempt.

However, there were still a lot of things ahead that he had not seen. He looked out at the sea of mist without boundaries and his reluctance almost exploded.

“Do you want to see it?”

“What?!” Tang Ling was startled when he heard a muffled and vague voice, which sounded very strange, yet it tried its best to express its meaning to him.

The voice really existed. It was not part of his imagination but when he looked around, there was nothing.

Although he realized the watery mist around the black locks that he walked past had strangely disappeared, the ‘dead vortex’ was brazenly exposed.

While Tang Ling was thinking what the exposed ‘dead vortex’ meant, the voice echoed again, “Do you want to see it?”

This time, the voice sounded clearer than before even though the tone was a little ridiculous. It sounded muffled and vague like a child who had just learned to speak and was trying to convey his thoughts, but Tang Ling somehow understood the ‘it’ that the voice was referring to.

Out of instinct, Tang Ling wanted to reply, but his vigilance changed his thoughts and made him ask, “Who are you?”

He originally thought he was not going to get an answer, but after he asked the question, he suddenly spotted a beating heart further away in a dark spot among the mist.

What the hell?

Instead of fear, Tang Ling only felt curiosity.

A second later, the beating heart turned transparent and revealed a seed inside it.

Indeed, it was a green seed that strongly rooted itself in every corner of the heart. The roots were well-developed and it almost blanketed the heart.

Should it not feel eerie?

Strangely, Tang Ling did not feel as such. He had a feeling that the heart and the seed were one, and that they coexisted in harmony.

Right after the feeling rose within him, Tang Ling heard the voice again. “This is me.” It sounded peculiar with a strong sense of delight as if it was eager to introduce itself to Tang Ling.

Despite it seeming like a meaningless phrase, Tang Ling somehow understood that it was the seed that had spoken.

The moment he knew who was speaking, the seed and heart vanished. A question then came from the dark. “Do you want to see it?”

This time, Tang Ling felt like he had reached his limit. If he continued his hesitation, he would soon be expelled from the misty space.

Out of unexplained trust, Tang Ling was out of ideas as he answered, “Yes, I want to see it!”

The moment his voice subsided, a tremendous power came from the darkness and enveloped the misty area in a flash.

A strong wind suddenly blew and the mist started to dissipate violently. The wind grew stronger and the mist ultimately lost the fight as it was violently dragged upwards like a piece of cloth and torn apart at the very end.

He saw it! Tang Ling finally saw it!

The mist was actually covering six more giant black locks underneath, and every single one of them was sealed off by the watery mist.

Even the external force could not cast the watery mist away. A whisper in his heart told him that he had to go through the mist himself to break through it.

The violent wind had reached its limit. As if it had exhausted itself, it subsided like the low tide, disappearing into nothingness.

The sea of mist that was temporarily blown away converged and blanketed everything once more. Although it was only blown away for less than a second, the answers had been revealed.

“What does this mean?” Tang Ling wanted to ponder upon the new sight, but the violent hunger that wrecked his body knocked him on the head, causing him to feel dizzy.

On top of that, the time limit was up, and Tang Ling started to feel unreal.

“Hungry, I’m so hungry.” The hunger quickly wore down Tang Ling’s endurance in the misty area. His limits were quickly surpassed.

After getting the answer, he set his will at rest and there was no reason for him to hold on anymore.

In the next second, Tang Ling opened his eyes in the machine and all the memories gushed into his brain like a tsunami. The second exam, going into the Genetic Chain Measuring Machine... he remembered everything.

Tang Ling had finally woken up. The first thing he felt was the violent hunger that could devour the sky.

The second thing was the exhaustion. He felt like his Precise Instinct was used beyond its limits, even more than in the fight with the snake or the bear. His brain was going to explode.

And the third...

Tang Ling looked at Fei Long who stuck his face to the transparent door.

What the hell? Tang Ling wanted to ask, but the exhaustion from his Precise Instinct prevented him from speaking. Two lines of blood rolled down from his nostrils and painted the floor red.

“Is there a sexy lady here?” Fei Long blinked in confusion.

Orston was behind Fei Long when it happened. He was just trying to get a better spot to watch the show, but when he saw Tang Ling bleeding everywhere, he unconsciously pulled his shirt over his bare chest and the black sun tattoo.

“Maybe I’m too sexy for him. Not even a man can resist my charms.” Orston glared at Tang Ling smugly.

“What in the actual hell?” Tang Ling shot back at Orston with a fierce glare, but his weakened state made him lethargic, so he did not do anything more than glare.

The transparent door then opened.

Fei Long stepped back. Tang Ling wiped the blood off his face and looked at Fei Long. “Is there anything to eat?”

What is he trying to do now? Fei Long blinked twice in a muddled state.

On the other hand, Yang Kong quietly tossed a tube of white paste at Tang Ling. “Here’s some nutrition paste. 1000 credits. Tell Su Yao to pay me back later.”
