Dominating Evolution of the Cosmos
Chapter 40
With enough resources supporting him, Steve's strength grew by leaps and bounds every single day. He was also getting more skilled in a few armories, though he was far from mastering them.
However, he was becoming more proficient in the usage of a combination of several armories. Steve's attributes layout had also changed dramatically as his strength improved.

…...
Looking at the attributes layout, Steve could not help but sigh.
In just seven days, my level of cell activation rose from 10% to 68%. No one would believe such an amazing growth rate!
During the first three days of training, Steve had used the normal grade Subatomic Serum and his cell activation grew from 10% to more than 30%. On the fourth day, he started to use the enhanced Subatomic Serum. His practice time did not shorten, but increased instead.
This was because, in addition to practicing the "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption," he was also training to use different armories. In less than four days, Steve's level of cell activation grew from 30% to 68%, growing at a rate of about 10% each day.
Steve became more confident. He even possessed the strength to battle against both Stuart and Sofia, whom he had met four days ago. However, over the past few days, they were doing everything they could to improve their strengths. Steve had no idea what their current strengths' growth rate was.
Steve and many others were making progress for tomorrow's recruits' battle ranking. Everyone was motivated to improve their strength. On the last night of training, Steve was immersed in his practice.
In the early morning hours, the recruits' military camp sounded the rallying horn and many recruits gathered at the field. Steve noticed that the strength of the other recruits had also changed dramatically, as compared to just a week earlier.
However, this was normal. Previously, there was no "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption," so one could only rely on exercise and consuming magical beasts' meat to increase their level of cell activation.
After practicing the "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption," the speed at which cells absorbed the cosmic force had increased, then followed that with the additional rapid growth of strength.
The recruits were feeling relaxed and were chatting, as the instructors had not yet arrived. One of the most talked about topics was the ranking in the last assessment and the scores that were achieved.
"Although the results of the last assessment were not publicly announced, Stuart or Sofia had to be the ones who came in first."
"I'm really looking forward to know finding out who is going to be among the top ten. I don't even know if I am on the list!"
"Hahahaha… Just by your strength? Stop dreaming!"
"I heard that the top ten recruits in the last assessment will have more points in the recruits' ranking battle. I bet you didn't know that, when the recruits enter into the official barracks, the more points he has, the more benefits he will get!"
Mike's words suddenly attracted a group of people.
"How do you know all these things?" someone asked curiously.
Even Steve could not help being curious, as he stood by the side to listen to the conversation.
"Ha ha ha… My brother was one of the recruits from the previous batch. He told me all the information that a new recruit would need to know," Mike said with a smug face. "There is always a ranking battle for every new batch of recruits. This ranking battle is an important way for new recruits to earn points that can then be used to exchange for training resources that you could not otherwise get."
Steve frowned when he heard this, as it was both good news and bad news for him. The results of the assessment had not been released yet, and no one else, except the top 10, who were assigned the secret task, knew who had placed among the top 10 spots.
Just then, Steve suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Steve!"
His sight shifted over, and he saw a delicate body had just jumped into his bosom. Lucy looked up at him with deep affection, her eyes expressing how much she had missed him.
"Lucy!" Steve hugged her tightly, as he had missed her badly, too. Both their eyes were full of love. They then expressed their feelings of admiration for one another with an affectionate kiss.
"I miss your cooking," Lucy said, instantly spoiling the romantic atmosphere.
Steve could not help but laugh, then said, "I'll cook for you when the battle is over. I will cook whatever you want to eat."
At times, Steve wondered whether she liked him or his cooking more. However, it was Steve's familiarity with the delicacies of the planet that had captured the heart of this little foodie.
Lucy suddenly smiled brightly, her eyes filled with deep affection again. Then, as she looked at Steve more deeply, her lips slowly approached closer to him.
"Lucy, what are you doing?" he asked.
Sophie's thunderous voice could be heard, as she shouted at Steve, "Garbage! Let go of my sister!"
The sudden sound of her angry ire spoiled the romantic atmosphere between the two of them. Steve's heart was filled with displeasure. He looked up and saw Sofia striding towards him in anger.
At the same time, he noticed that many people on the field were looking at them. Some were in shock, others in disbelief.
"Lucy is actually together with Steve!"
"Oh my God! This is impossible! My favorite goddess actually likes a piece of crap!"
"No! This cannot be true! The beauty of Lucy is like the bright moon in the sky. How could a piece of crap like Steve be worthy of her?!"
Many men went mad and even roared up at the sky upon seeing this, as if they were feeling like God had abandoned them. Although Lucy and Sofia had their own unique strengths, Lucy's sweet personality was more popular among the male soldiers, so they naturally regarded her as their dream lover.
But now, their favorite dream lover was actually together with Steve! As Steve's usual performances had always been among the bottom tier, everyone felt that Steve was not worthy of their dream lover!
"Sofia's here! I heard that Sofia and Lucy are sisters. Let's wait for a good show."
"With Sofia's strong character, she would never allow her sister to be together with a piece of garbage like Steve."
Many men were jealous of Steve now. They naturally did not want them to be together.
"Lucy, you come with me!"
Sofia came up and took one of Lucy's hands, then tried to pull her away forcefully. However, Steve held Lucy's other hand tightly and said adamantly, "Lucy doesn't want to go with you! She can make her own choices."
"She's my sister and this is none of your business. You let go of my sister! Otherwise, don't blame me for taking a shot at you," Sofia said angrily.
The two of them each held Lucy by one hand, neither backing down.
"Enough! The two of you let go of me!" Lucy struggled, then broke free of both hands and stood between them.
