“What did he say? He wants to take the omnipotence test?”

“Does this newcomer know what he’s talking about?”

“Strange things happen every year. There are a lot of them this year. There was an idiot who bragged shamelessly about challenging Viscount Green’s record a moment ago, and now there’s another genius who wants to take the omnipotence test.”

“How can you say that? At least he didn’t say he wanted to participate in the elemental test, right?”

“That’s right. At least he didn’t think of dual cultivation in magic and martial arts. He only wanted to become the second genetic warrior in the Indigo Empire to possess all-rounded genes. This is a good thing. We should give him our blessings.”

“Hahahaha, good luck!”

The group of people were making fun of each other in a weird manner. The way they looked at Emerson was no longer as if they were looking at a monster. It was more like they were looking at a lunatic.

Emerson realized that it seemed like an all-rounded genetic warrior was much stronger and rarer than normal genetic warrior

The second all-rounded genetic warrior after the establishment of the Indigo Empire?

No way?

Even Emerson himself felt that it was somewhat inconceivable.

Not far away, even the middle-aged man frowned at Emerson’s words.

It had been a long time since anyone had challenged the omnipotence test.

All-rounded genetic warriors were common during the initial stages of the mutation on Blue Planet.

However, as the bloodline passed down, different genes were mixed together.

The second generation of genetic warriors were unable to inherit all the genetic attributes of both their parents.

As a result, the power of their descendants gradually diverged, becoming monotonous. They were unique in 1 gene, but they became weak.

As time passed, the problem became more and more serious.

In the end, even after some genetic warriors married to ordinary people, the next generation did not have the qualifications to become genetic warriors.

It was something that could not be helped. No one could solve the issue.

Hence, the higher-ups at that time decided on 1 thing.

In order to maintain the bloodline orthodoxy, powerful genes, and to ensure the combat strength of future generations, a genetic warrior could only marry to another genetic warrior.

Only when the rule was implemented did the situation improve greatly.

However, at that time, the loss of high-quality genetic warriors’ bloodlines was already critical.

Only some large families that had extremely strict rules were able to retain high-quality genetic warriors’ bloodlines.

However, compared to the first generation of genetic warriors, they were still lacking by quite a bit.

The last all-rounded genetic warrior that appeared in the Indigo Empire was the founding emperor, Green Aldrich.

More than 3,700 years had passed since then. The royal bloodline had weakened. Even dual-element genetic warriors were very rare.

Not to mention the all-rounded genetic warriors that were even stronger than dual-element genetic warriors.

Everyone thought that such a person would never appear again.

A man who did not even have an identity card said that he wanted to test 3 different genes at the same time. How could that not make people laugh their heads off?

The middle-aged man shook his head and asked again.

“You said that you want to participate in 3 tests, right?”

“Yes, sir.” Emerson nodded slightly.

“If that’s the case, you will not participate in 3 tests, but a test that’s exclusive to all-rounded genetic warriors. There will be a certain level of danger.”

The middle-aged man reminded Emerson as he said, “Are you sure that you want to participate in such a test?”

Again, Emerson nodded his head firmly.

The data displayed on Emerson’s system panel could not possibly lie to him.

“Alright, sign this contract and go to the first room on the right.”

The middle-aged man waved his hand in disappointment. He had already done what he should have said and reminded Emerson. Since he was determined to seek death, he would not stop him.

It was not as if there had never been a person here who wanted to test whether he was an all-rounded genetic warrior.

However, after none of those who participated in the test were able to walk out of that door alive, no one dared to challenge the omnipotence test anymore.

Who would have thought that there would be such a man who dared to challenge the test.

Emerson signed contract and walked toward the first door under everyone’s mocking gazes.

Halfway through, he was blocked by Lucius.

Lucius clapped his hands. It was unknown whether his eyes were filled with surprise or ridicule. Perhaps it was both, he then said with a smile.

“You really surprised me.”

“I just wanted to play cat and mouse with you to punish you. I didn’t expect that you would actually choose to seek your own death.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of your sister after you’re dead.”

Emerson sneered. “I hope that when I come out later, your tone will be as tough as your bones.”

As Emerson spoke, he pushed open the door and entered the room.

What entered his eyes was an endless stairs.

He was standing on the first step.

“This is called the Eternal Stairs. What you need to do is to climb the steps, the higher the better.”

The middle-aged man voiced out, “You can choose to withdraw from the challenge for every 1,000 steps and leave from the side. Remember, you have to choose carefully. If you don’t reach the next check point, you will fall into an endless abyss.”

Emerson looked left and right, but he did not see anyone around him. It seemed that the middle-aged man could see him through something.

Since the technological system had collapsed, it was already very rare and difficult to do this.

Perhaps it was the work of an alchemist.

In fact, it was more or less what Emerson had thought.

At that moment, on a wall in the testing area, Emerson’s figure was projected by a crystal ball.

It was something created by the elemental genetic warrior and new human researchers. Its main purpose was to reproduce the image.

At that moment, Emerson was already moving. He was walking swiftly on the first 1,000 steps as if he did not feel the slightest bit of pressure.

As he moved, the steps behind him also began to fall continuously, falling into the endless abyss below.

From the looks of it, the frequency of the fall seemed to be the same as Emerson’s initial speed.

When everyone saw this scene, they could not help but shake their heads.

“He’s a rookie. He doesn’t know anything. He moved so fast in the beginning. When he ran out of stamina later on, his speed would definitely not be able to keep up. If he didn’t reach the check point, he would definitely fall into the endless abyss.”

“And I heard that it gets harder and harder as one progresses. It’s not just a test of your endurance.”

“Is there any record of this test?”

“I think so, but all the challengers have died. The most powerful one only managed to walk 1,300 steps.”

“I bet 1,000 gold coins that this person won’t be able to run more than 1,000 steps. Who wants to bet against him?”

“Do you think we’re fools? If we bet against you like this, wouldn’t we be giving you money?”

However, the next moment, someone exclaimed in surprise.

“Wait a minute, his speed hasn’t decreased. He’s so fast! F*ck! It’s already 800 steps!”
