I Am A Prodigy

The screen displayed the fearsome power and brutality of the giant python along with Ye Lingchen’s magnificent performance, giving off a feeling of a dragon slayer.

“Just sign here.” Dong Miaomiao pointed at an empty area on the sketch that was intentionally left blank.

“You drew this?” Ye Lingchen’s brows twitched.

Dong Miaomiao nodded, then replied awkwardly, “It’s just a rough sketch due to time constraints. I hope God Ye won’t be offended.”

“Your drawing is not bad.” Ye Lingchen smiled, then signed his name on it. His writing was an embodiment of freedom and its sharpness taken over the sketch.

“Such beautiful writings! I’m surprised that God Ye’s calligraphy skill has reached such heights. I’m truly humbled,” Dong Miaomiao exclaimed.

Ye Lingchen nodded, keeping his silence.

His internal evaluation for this young woman had just improved. ‘Smart. Very smart.’

She was obviously taking advantage of his fame!

Who was Ye Lingchen? He was no doubt the most important person in the scene. They were doing a live stream at that moment. A lot of people were following Ye Lingchen. With this young woman asking for his autograph out of the blue, she would naturally gain the attention of those viewers.

If she had taken out their company’s posters and tried to market their ads, Ye Lingchen could just reject the signature. However, she took out a sketched portrait of Ye Lingchen. That act alone changed the playing field.

Furthermore, the sketch was nicely done. Ye Lingchen could foresee that this sketch, along with his signature, would stir up some debates of the netizens. Whenever they see this sketch, they would think of Thousandsprout Healthcare!

It was a different form of advertising. Moreover, its effects would be excellent!

Ye Lingchen preferred smart people as he was one of them. Hence, he had no qualms helping out this young woman with his signature.

“Why aren’t you analyzing the giant python’s meat?” Ye Lingchen asked.

“God Ye, aren’t there people doing that for me right now?” Dong Miaomiao winked at Ye Lingchen with a smile on her face.

The next moment, an astonished shout could be heard.

“How is this possible?!”

It was a stunned expert with his face all red from excitement.

“Amazing, it’s too amazing. This is a miracle! It’s a miracle in the field of medicine!”

“How can this be? It’s flesh and bones, but it’s displaying such properties. Special, this is very special!”

“This giant python is exceptional!”

Following that, the astonishments came one after another. Some of the experts were even moved to tears.

“What’s going on?” someone asked.

“This giant python’s meat has a mysterious energy. This energy is very pure, similar to the medicinal properties of spiritual herbs. However, because it’s an animal, the medicinal properties of this giant python’s meat is all the more special. Furthermore, its effects are above those spiritual herbs!” explained one of the experts as he adjusted his glasses.

Ye Lingchen naturally knew of that mysterious energy they were talking about. It was, in fact, the spiritual energy that was nurtured within the giant python’s body. Moreover, this giant python had lived for an unknown period of time. Its body was already undergoing metamorphosis.

“This type of medicinal property is very different! If we use this giant python’s meat as an ingredient, it will surely be able to keep some special diseases under control!” someone added with a trembling voice, “It could very well ameliorate some of the incurable diseases we’re faced with right now!”

Once the conclusion was announced, everyone at the scene turned livid. They all looked at the giant python’s corpse with eyes filled with envy!

The giant python was huge, but in the end, it was the only one. With limited supplies, whichever company obtained the giant python, the medicine it produces would be of better quality than other companies!

Furthermore, once a new medicine was invented using the giant python, that company’s status would undergo a great transformation!

‘Buy! I must buy this!’

The same thought appeared in everyone’s mind.

[F*ck me, is it that amazing?]

[It’s demonized. It’s definitely demonized. Hya! Reveal yourself!]

[Don’t bother. It’s most likely Bai Suzhen[1]!]

[OMG, if Bai Suzhen ended up like this, what about Xu Xian[2]?]

[Stop bullsh*tting. Do you know what this giant python represents? It can save the lives of millions! God Ye is amazing!]

[This giant python is Tang the Monk’s equivalent of snakes!]

…

Everyone was voicing out their astonishment, while Young Master Wei was the only one watching coldly from the side.

“Young Master Wei, this is the result of our analysis. It’s beyond our expectations!”

A report was passed to Young Master Wei.

Reading the data on the report, Young Master Wei’s eyes narrowed immediately, his expression showing that he must get it at all cost.

“This giant python’s genes are no longer the genes of a snake. There are many mutations all over the place,” the underling elaborated for Young Master Wei. “According to the data displayed here, this giant python’s life force is five times higher than those of its kind! I’m starting to think that it’s no longer a snake. It might just be like those ancient myths claimed and the snake is evolving into a dragon?!”

“Whatever it is. We must get this giant python’s body. This will be helpful for our research!” Young Master Wei’s eyes glowed, then gave a dark look at Ye Lingchen and the giant tortoise, licking his lips. “Don’t forget about that giant tortoise too! Apart from that, aren’t you curious about that God Ye fellow?”

“Very curious!” that person’s voice was serious. “According to our analysis of the video, God Ye’s body is far beyond the limits of a normal human being. Be it his strength or agility in the water, it’s beyond what a human can possess. Even for a martial artist, that’s an impossible feat. I suspect that he might have undergone some sort of mutation in his body.”

“What do you think his genes are like?” Young Master Wei muttered to himself. “Compared to the giant python or that Old Tortoise, human genes are naturally more compatible with other humans. I’m very much interested in this God Ye!”

“I wonder if I can have his constitution if I transplanted his genes onto myself!” Young Master Wei looked forward to it with a passion!

Ye Lingchen naturally noticed Young Master Wei’s gaze, but he smiled it off casually. He had no love for the so-called genetic company. His feelings proved right, as those working in genetic companies were exclusively maniacs!

‘It’s fine if this genetic company behaves itself. If it tried anything stupid, I don’t mind toying with it!’

Only

Along with his growth, Ye Lingchen came to know the power of his knowledge. He began to look at this world from a point of power.

“God Ye, we’re done analyzing. The auction can start now,” said someone impatiently.

“Alright, let it begin.” Ye Lingchen nodded.

This auction was not a formal one. It was just the empty plot in front of the Mushroom Hut without even a chair to sit on.

However, everyone did not mind the format at all. They just wanted to make the purchase quickly and leave…

[1] 白素贞 (Bai Suzhen) – The snake demon from the Legend of the White Snake.

[2] 许仙 (Xu Xian) – The human that saved Bai Suzhen and ended up marrying her.
