Lin Yu and the others stood on a circular platform blocked by light, facing the illusory figure emitting a powerful aura above the platform. The atmosphere was extremely tense. Lin Yu's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. He knew that this so-called test of the way of balance would be full of difficulties and obstacles. "Xinglan, do you have any idea about this test of the way of balance?" Lin Yu asked Xinglan anxiously in his heart, eager to get some useful information.
Xing Lan's voice, with a hint of solemnity, rang out in Lin Yu's mind: "Lin Yu, this way of balance is too profound, and I cannot know the specific content of the test. But judging from the aura of this illusory figure and the scales in his hand, the test may involve the balance of strength, wisdom, emotion and other aspects. We need to remain calm, observe carefully, and find a way to crack it."
Lin Yu silently remembered Xing Lan's words in his heart. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He turned to look at his teammates. Su Yao's face was full of tension. She tightly grasped the damaged defensive shield, her eyes revealing a hint of uneasiness, but more of determination. She silently vowed in her heart that she would get through this difficult time with everyone no matter what. Xiao Yi was rubbing his hands together, his eyes flashing with excitement. Although he had just experienced a battle with the guardian beast, his fighting spirit was not diminished at all. He was full of desire to challenge this unknown test. Lu Ming pushed his glasses, his eyes behind the lenses focused and calm. He was quickly thinking about the possible test direction and response strategy. Lingxi bit her lip nervously. She was worried that everyone would not pass the test, but she also hoped that she could contribute to the team.
"Don't panic, everyone. We will definitely find a way to pass the test." Lin Yu said loudly, trying to boost everyone's morale.
The illusory figure raised his hand slightly, and the massive scale began to spin, its two ends emitting different colors of light. "One end of this scale represents power, the other represents wisdom. You must find a balance between the two to pass the first test." The illusory figure's voice echoed across the platform.
Lin Yu frowned slightly. He understood that this was a big challenge. Relying solely on strength or wisdom would not be enough to pass the test. A perfect combination of both was necessary. "Everyone, listen. We must exert our own strengths, use our wisdom, and cooperate with each other." Lin Yu quickly gave instructions.
Xiao Yi rushed forward first, brandishing his weapon and unleashing powerful attacks, attempting to demonstrate sufficient strength. However, while one end of the scale responded, it didn't reach equilibrium. "What's going on? Am I not strong enough?" Xiao Yi shouted, somewhat puzzled.
Lu Ming was analyzing the situation quickly. He pushed up his glasses and said, "Xiao Yi, this isn't just a matter of strength. It's also about how to use it properly. We need to find a way to combine the output of strength with wisdom."
Lin Yu nodded. He concentrated his mind and cast the "Five-Colored Phantom Spirit Technique" while integrating the power of Cancer. But this time, he did not attack blindly. Instead, he carefully observed the reaction of the scale and thought about how to adjust the output of power. "Xinglan, help me analyze the relationship between my current power output and the balance of the scale?" Lin Yu asked Xinglan for help in his heart.
Xing Lan responded quickly: "Lin Yu, your power output is too direct and powerful. Although it can increase the power side of the scale, it lacks a subtle sense of balance. You need to control the intensity and rhythm of the power and make it resonate with the wisdom side."
Lin Yu listened to Xing Lan's advice and began to adjust his power output. He incorporated the protective power of Cancer into it, forming a soft and tenacious power. This power slowly transferred to the power end of the scale, and the scale began to undergo subtle changes.
At the same time, Su Yao was also thinking about the application of wisdom. She looked at the scale and suddenly thought of a solution. "Everyone, we can adjust our actions according to the degree of inclination of the scale. This is also a manifestation of wisdom." Su Yao said loudly.
Lu Ming nodded, quickly observing the state of the scale and then giving appropriate instructions. With everyone's joint efforts, the two ends of the scale gradually reached balance.
"Success!" Lingxi shouted excitedly, with a happy smile on her face.
The illusory figure nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you have passed the first test. Next, it's the second test - emotional balance."
As the illusory figure finished speaking, various illusions suddenly appeared on the platform. Some of these illusions represented everyone's deepest fears, some represented past regrets, and some represented emotions that were difficult to let go.
Su Yao saw the scene where she was unable to protect her teammates, and her heart was filled with self-blame and pain. "No, I can't let this happen again." Su Yao said firmly in her heart. She tried to overcome her inner fear and keep her emotions stable.
Xiao Yi saw the scene of his own defeat in the battle. A flicker of confusion flashed across his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination. "So what if I fail? I will only become stronger." Xiao Yi clenched his fists and shouted loudly.
Lin Yu saw himself separated from his teammates, and a pang of pain pierced his heart. But he knew it was just an illusion, and he couldn't let his emotions sway him. "Xinglan, these illusions are a test of whether we can maintain our balance in the face of emotions, right?" Lin Yu confirmed with Xinglan in his heart.
Xing Lan replied, "Yes, Lin Yu. You need to guide everyone so that they can face these emotions and find inner balance."
Lin Yu nodded and said loudly: "Don't be fooled by these illusions. This is just a means to test our emotional balance. We must trust each other and believe in our team."
