Section 35

Xia Dongliu immediately burst out laughing, his aged face seemingly growing younger, his complexion rosy.

His mood was visibly excellent as he repeatedly patted Xu Zi'an's shoulder, laughing loudly: "Good, good, good.

However, you are currently only a Named Disciple. You must rely on your own efforts to become a Registered Evolutionist before I will truly accept you as my Disciple!

I will only give you three years. If you still cannot pass the Evolutionist assessment in three years, then it seems we are not destined to be Master and Disciple.

Furthermore, you should know that before I truly accept you, I will not provide you with any assistance!

Of course, if there's anything you don't understand, you can always come and ask me!"

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Zi'an had no regrets.

Elder Xia accepting him as a Named Disciple was already a huge, unexpected joy.

As for help… from childhood, Xu Zi'an's consistent principle had been that relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself.

Only by relying on himself could he truly learn to grow and truly become strong!

Otherwise, he would only become a parasitic worm, an overgrown baby who never truly matured.

Seeing that Xu Zi'an's expression remained normal after hearing him say this, without any dissatisfaction or regret, Elder Xia couldn't help but nod.

He grew even fonder of Xu Zi'an in his heart.

Xu Zi'an's personal information from childhood had been thoroughly investigated by him.

Thus, he knew what kind of life Xu Zi'an had led since he was young.

Suddenly becoming his Named Disciple, yet receiving no benefits from him… someone with poor Heart-Nature or character might have an imbalanced mindset… but Xu Zi'an did not.

Elder Xia was undoubtedly in a very good mood today.

Originally, he had come to check on the repair status of these starships… after all, these starships were damaged because of him, and he felt somewhat uneasy not checking on them.

He never expected to gain such an unexpected joy after coming here. For a time, he held onto Xu Zi'an and had endless things to say.

The people nearby looked at each other.

While envious, they naturally did not dare to urge Elder Xia.

The repair work for a mere Frigate was something they could completely handle; Elder Xia's intervention was not needed.

Several others also had some small thoughts.

For example, the middle-aged man who had just reported to Xu Zi'an… his gaze towards Xu Zi'an had become very different.

Xu Zi'an certainly didn't know about any of this.

He was currently introducing his brilliant to Elder Xia!

And the more he introduced it…

The more shocked Elder Xia's expression became.

Until the end, Elder Xia looked at Xu Zi'an as if he had seen a ghost!!!

…[Five updates today! Oh my goodness… I just said it yesterday, and when I woke up today… there were a full 45,000 more fresh flowers and over a hundred ten-point evaluation tickets! And tens of thousands of those fresh flowers were sent by one person… So awesome!!! Ho ho, thank you, thank you! I'll write furiously! Also, please leave your footprints in the comment section and offer some suggestions~].

Chapter 31: Becoming Elder Xia's Disciple, A Named Disciple!

Xia Dongliu felt that he had greatly underestimated Xu Zi'an's talent.

Previously, when he observed Xu Zi'an's Evolution, the entire Evolution process was smooth and practiced, reaching a state of perfection.

Based on experience, he estimated that some parts of Xu Zi'an's starship had reached excellent quality, and the starship's overall quality should also be excellent.

Do not think that excellent quality is poor.

You should know that…

Currently, throughout the entire Universe, ninety-nine percent of Biological Captains have starships of only ordinary quality!

At least 0.1% have reached excellent quality or above!

Furthermore…

The higher the starship's level, the fewer High Grade quality starships there are!

Because the higher the level of the starship, the more difficult the Evolution, and the fewer Evolutionists capable of evolving to that extent.

To self-learn and evolve a spacecraft… which seemed to be a salvaged spacecraft, into excellent quality… Xia Dongliu felt this was absolutely the mark of a super Genius.

However… after Xu Zi'an's explanation…

And his personal, close-range inspection of brilliant's various components… he was utterly stunned.

Having lived for so many years…

He had never seen a super Prodigy like Xu Zi'an.

Yes!

Xu Zi'an was no longer just a peerless Genius in his mind, but a super Prodigy!

Only this could express his shock and horror.

He had just carefully calculated.

The number of Red Excellent Quality components… was surprisingly as high as seven!!!

Keel;

Superluminal Engine;

main cannon;

anti-air cannon;

Detection Radar;

Cockpit Glass;

Anti-detection Stealth Device… a full seven.

From a spacecraft, it had evolved all the way…

In just under half a month…

Evolving to Tier 2…

What kind of concept is it to have seven Red Excellent Quality components and three Blue Rare Quality components?

It was only because components like the Captain's Bridge, living quarters, communicator, etc., dragged it down.

Otherwise, relying on seven main components that reached Red Excellent Quality, brilliant's overall quality would certainly also be Red Excellent!

It's just a pity… the Captain's Bridge, living quarters, communicator, locking radar, Star Crystal Optical Brain, landing gear, balance System, and so on, these things were all too subpar.

The more than twenty Gray Inferior Quality components made Xia Dongliu's scalp tingle and his mouth twitch.

Xia Dongliu even had an impulse—

To break his own rules for accepting Disciples and help Xu Zi'an right now!

At least to let Xu Zi'an evolve those extremely subpar components of his brilliant to at least a presentable level.

But after thinking about it… he ultimately decided to stick to his original plan.

Forcing growth…
