However, most of the royal family members persisted. They gritted their teeth and persevered, slowly adapting.
People outside began to talk: "This class of young people are all pretty good. Almost all of them persisted for three days!"
"No!" Someone shook his head in denial.
"It's not that they are so strong, but that all those who entered this time are early-stage Great Emperors. In the past, they were only at the peak of the Heavenly Venerable. They have a huge realm advantage."
"Oh! No wonder this class is so strong, it turns out it's due to their realm advantage!"
"Yes, it seems that these people should have no problem surviving seven days." Someone said with emotion.
The elders of the royal family were naturally overjoyed, their faces beaming with joy, their gloom fading from the previous few days. Meanwhile, those royal family members who hadn't participated, fearing the dangers of the Strengthening Pool, beat their chests and stamped their feet in deep regret, lamenting the missed opportunity.
Time passed quietly like quicksand, and until the seventh day, not a single royal family member had died, but they were obviously reaching their limit.
Zhu Hai was also a little unable to hold on. He looked at Yu Kai and Enhao, and seeing that they looked calm, he couldn't help feeling jealous.
Zhu Jiang secretly transmitted, "I can't hold on any longer! What about you guys?"
"I can't take it anymore!" someone responded.
As soon as the words fell, someone flew up, and the others followed suit, rushing out of the pool one after another. They sat cross-legged by the pool, hurriedly recovering the spiritual energy they had consumed in the pool and repairing their damaged bodies.
They knew that now that they had survived seven days, they would all be rewarded with a General-level mecha, and their strength would surely increase exponentially. Furthermore, with these seven days of perseverance, breaking through to the mid-stage Great Emperor realm would be a piece of cake. It seemed they had reaped a rich harvest, and victory was already assured; there was no need to risk persisting any further.
On the eighth day, Zhujiang finally couldn't hold on any longer and rushed out of the strengthening pool.
On the tenth day, Zhu Hai also rushed out helplessly. His face was gloomy and he was furious. Yu Kai and En Hao were still insisting on staying in the pool, showing no signs of coming out.
This made the originally complacent royal family members look disgraced. Zhu Jiang glared at Yu Kai fiercely, thinking to himself: It was this drug slave who made me lose face. Now that En Hao can't save himself, let's see how you can survive. He winked at a young man across from him.
The young man understood instantly, slowly stood up, and walked towards Yu Kai step by step.
Everyone watching outside could see the young royal family's intentions, but no one felt sorry for Yu Kai. Some even mocked him, saying, "He was the first to enter, yet he chose to bring shame to the royal family. He deserves to die!"
When Li Yuening and several other women from the Elders' Mansion saw this, their hearts suddenly tightened and they all stood up. Their hearts were in their throats, but they were powerless to do anything.
Inside the temple, Luo Yingxue and Zhu Bei'er were equally distraught, unsure what to do, their bodies filled with murderous intent. If it weren't for the Demon Conch Emperor and the Four Elders stopping them, they would have already rushed out.
The Devouring Emperor was also secretly anxious: "Yu Kai, how are you recovering? I haven't broken this barrier yet, you must not get hurt!"
…
The young man looked at Yu Kai in the pool and sneered, "If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck!"
After saying that, a divine light shot towards Yu Kai like lightning, intending to blow Yu Kai's head off.
"Master!" Enhao noticed it instantly, but it was too late to rescue him.
He really didn't expect that these royal children would be so shameless and openly take advantage of Yu Kai during the live broadcast.
Just when the divine light was about to hit Yu Kai, Yu Kai's eyes suddenly opened, and two golden lights shot out, directly blocking the divine light.
His eyes were as cold as ice, and he said coldly: "Are you seeking death?"
"Hmph! A mere medicine slave dares to be so arrogant!" The young man completely ignored Yu Kai's cold eyes, and waved his hand again to cut out a ray of divine light, heading straight for Yu Kai.
"I'm going to kill you!" En Hao was furious and was about to rush over, but was sternly rebuked by Yu Kai: "Just focus on tempering your body! You're a bunch of clowns, you can't hurt me!"
As Yu Kai spoke, he stretched out his hand and quickly condensed the spiritual fluid in the pool into a long whip. With a sharp snap, the whip shattered the divine light.
"Hmm?" The young man was quite surprised. He had never expected this peak-level "demon slave" to be so capable. Then he stretched out his hand and a sharp sword appeared in his hand.
Yu Kai naturally would not let him go. He swung his long whip like a nimble dragon or snake, lashing towards the young man.
"Ding!" The young man rushed forward, his sword yanked away by the spirit whip. Then, with a whirring sound, the spirit whip entangled the young man. Yu Kai pulled hard, dragging him directly into the pool.
"Ah!" Painful screams resounded all around, and other royal family members stood up one after another.
Yu Kai did not stop there. He pulled the struggling boy closer and pointed with his finger.
"Puff!" Yu Kai's fingers directly pierced through the opponent's head, destroying his body and soul.
"What a vicious kid!" Zhu Jiang's eyes widened with anger, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Kill! I must kill him and avenge the jewels!"
Before he finished speaking, the other royal family members instantly drew their weapons, flashing cold rays as they fiercely slashed at Yu Kai in the pool. In an instant, all kinds of powerful energies surged out, as if threatening to tear the world apart.
"Master!" Seeing this, Enhao was extremely anxious and rushed towards Yu Kai without thinking.
"Don't come over, just focus on breaking your body!" Yu Kai shouted loudly with a voice like a bell.
At the same time, he swung the long whip in his hand like a spirit snake, creating a whistling sound that blocked all the violent attacks from the crowd. Wherever the whip touched, the air was torn apart, making a sharp sound.
The long whip was waving continuously, like the scythe of the god of death, and one by one the royal children were accurately pulled into the pool. Suddenly, bursts of painful wails were heard from the pool, as if it were purgatory on earth.
Before they could struggle to break out again, they were killed by Yu Kai's powerful physical strength, and their lives disappeared like a candle in the wind.
At this moment, Yu Kai truly looked like a demon descending from the earth, emitting a terrifying aura. He attacked with ruthless determination, each move without mercy. In the blink of an eye, dozens of people fell to his lash, perishing.
However, his ruthlessness didn't intimidate the royal family members into retreating; instead, it aroused their ferocity. They summoned their gleaming metallic mechas, and for a moment, a radiant light filled the air. Like a tidal wave, they descended upon Yu Kai, determined to rip him to pieces.
Zhu Jiang was even more frantic, his eyes red as he recklessly pounced on Yu Kai. He united with the others and launched a violent siege on Yu Kai. He knew that if he didn't kill Yu Kai, so many royal family members would die, and all of this was secretly orchestrated by him. If he escaped, he would definitely not have a good ending, and would be severely punished by the royal family.
