The cry of "Come on!" from the Sea Dragon Douluo was so powerful it shook the mountains and the sky.
He assumed a fighting stance, his soul power surging.
However, when Yang Bubai and Shui Bing'er stepped forward as instructed, the strongest Title Douluo among the Seven Sacred Pillars put on an even more exquisite duel.
Yang Bubai's Heaven-Reaching Divine Spear was only halfway extended, its tip not yet fully revealed, when the Sea Dragon Douluo was "perfectly" swept by the spear's wind, staggering and exclaiming in "horrified" surprise:
"What a sharp spear intent! Such skill at such a young age! I admire you!"
The moment Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul spread its wings, before the chill had even fully enveloped the platform, Hailong Douluo was already hugging his arms, shivering all over, his teeth chattering.
"So...so cold! My old bones can't take this! I concede, you win!"
The entire process was smooth and seamless, with expressions so nuanced and emotions so rich that it was an Oscar-worthy performance, even more so than that of Seahorse Douluo.
Everyone: "..."
The following tests were almost a carbon copy of the first two farces.
The illusion created by the Sea Illusion Douluo; the Sea Star Douluo's regenerative abilities repeatedly failing; the Sea Ghost Douluo...
Before anyone could even react, he clutched his stomach and said he had eaten something unclean the night before.
The journey was smooth and unimpeded. When the guardians of the sacred pillars bid farewell to Ning Liu and his group, they were incredibly enthusiastic and reluctant to part, their eyes filled with the expectation of "coming again next time".
Finally, they arrived at the last sacred pillar, the Sea Witch's Sacred Pillar.
The guardian here is none other than the Sea Witch Douluo.
She was dressed in a long black dress, exuding a languid and mysterious aura. She held a flute in her hand and was idly playing an off-key tune.
Seeing the crowd arrive, she merely raised her eyelids lazily, seemingly uninterested in the challenge.
"Witch sister!"
A clear call broke the silence. Little White's huge body emerged from the water, transformed into human form, and ran forward affectionately, taking the arm of the Sea Witch Douluo.
"Sister Xiaobai? How come you're hanging out with them?"
When the Sea Witch Douluo saw Xiao Bai, a smile finally appeared on her face. She pinched her cheek and spoke in a doting tone.
"They just helped me get revenge, and they're here to complete the assessment."
Xiao Bai chuckled, leaned close to her ear, and whispered something.
The Sea Witch Douluo listened, her smile growing even brighter. Finally, her gaze swept over Ning Liu with interest before she waved to Xiao Wu and the others, her voice carrying a touch of coquettish languor:
"Listen to my song, and once you've finished, you're all done!"
......
Before long, all seven guardians of the sacred pillars had successfully "challenged" the guardians.
A dazzling golden beam of light descended from the sky, completely enveloping Xiao Wu. The trident mark of the sea god on her brow shone brightly, emanating a sacred and majestic aura.
A grand and ethereal voice resounded in everyone's minds.
[Poseidon's Fifth Trial, Challenge: Guardians of the Seven Pillars, passed.]
Xiao Wu's face lit up with joy, but before she could even feel happy, the voice rang out again.
This time, however, there seemed to be a hint of something strange in his tone.
[Due to cheating during the assessment process, the reward period for the Divine Soul Ring has been halved, and the reward for Soul Power level has also been halved.]
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden pillar of light enveloping Xiao Wu dimmed considerably, and the energy flowing into her body also weakened.
Xiao Wu's smile froze.
Yang Bubai, Shui Bing'er, and the others were also taken aback and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Taking a shortcut? Halving the reward?
Seahorse Douluo and Sea Dragon Douluo exchanged a glance, their enthusiastic smiles freezing on their faces, their eyes revealing a hint of embarrassment and guilt.
Before everyone could recover from this unexpected turn of events, the authoritative voice continued its pronouncement.
[The content of the sixth trial of Poseidon has been released.]
[Because I failed to demonstrate my true abilities in the fifth test, the difficulty of the assessment has been increased.]
[Original assessment objective: To withstand the combined attack of the seven Sacred Pillar Guardians for the duration of an incense stick burning.]
[Now changed to: Under the care of the High Priest Poseidon, the duration of one incense stick's burning time.]
boom!
This news struck like a thunderbolt from the heavens, exploding in everyone's hearts.
The entire Poseidon Mountain fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
The seven Sacred Pillars guarding Douluo joined forces? That's an insurmountable barrier that mortals can hardly imagine.
But now, the opponent has changed to the High Priestess Poseidon!
Who is that person?
The pillar supporting the sky on Poseidon Island, one of the three peerless Douluo of this era, an existence only one step away from godhood!
Let alone persisting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, she could probably annihilate a Soul Master with just a glance!
This is no longer a test, this is a certain death trap!
Seahorse Douluo coughed twice, moved closer to Ning Liu, and said half-jokingly:
"Sect Leader Ning...you...you wouldn't be trying to bribe even the High Priest, would you?"
Upon hearing this, even the Sea Dragon Douluo couldn't help but shudder.
Bribing the high priest?
What a mad and blasphemous idea!
They wouldn't dare think that even if they had a hundred lives!
However, just as Seahorse Douluo finished speaking, a calm and composed figure appeared silently before everyone.
She wore a magnificent red robe, held a nearly three-meter-long golden scepter, and had long silver hair that cascaded down like a waterfall.
It was none other than Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo.
Her appearance did not cause any fluctuations in soul power, nor did it have any earth-shattering aura, but the entire space seemed to freeze.
All sounds and movements paled in comparison to her.
The seven guardians of the Holy Pillars, including Seahorse Douluo and Sea Dragon Douluo, immediately bowed deeply upon seeing her, their expressions extremely respectful, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Poseidon's gaze swept across the crowd indifferently before finally settling on Xiao Wu.
Her voice, like her personality, was calm and indifferent.
"Shall we begin the sixth test now?"
"Wait!"
