Chapter 44: The most terrifying episode for the second grade, don't underestimate the beast of the auspicious beast

"Arrogant!"

"He's here to smash the place!"

"Glory! Shi Laike's glory cannot be blasphemed!"

Hearing the arrogant challenge of "I want to fight ten," the Shi Laike students were stunned at first. After discovering that they hadn't misheard, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, immediately turning red-faced and thick-necked, spraying saliva three meters away.

"Senior Holy Spirit, I can fight ten one-on-one, right?"

Zhao Xuan loosened his muscles slightly, completely ignoring those gazes that wanted to devour people. He wasn't here to be a "three-good student," but to let the Shi Laike students experience what a monster is!

"Specialty display, you have the final say." Yali waved her hand, still maintaining a gentle smile.

Seeing that the chief examiner Yali had agreed to this battle with a huge disparity in numbers, Mo Jue looked at the handsome young man opposite and lowered her voice to tell her teammates:

"Supreme Ultimate Zhao Xuan, the newly promoted fifth on the Youth Genius Ranking. At the opening ceremony of the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition, he led the unknown Donghai Academy to crush the Shrek team composed of Yu Yuanheng and Ning Xian.

I've seen the battle recording. Zhao Xuan's combat power is very terrifying. One-on-one, Yu Yuanheng under the amplification of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda couldn't even land an effective hit and finally suffered a crushing defeat to the thunder that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is best at.

A genius of this level is definitely not a fool or a reckless man. He has the capital to fight ten. Don't be blinded by anger, listen to my arrangements for everything."

"Yes, Sister Mo!"

When the Shi Laike students felt insulted, Mo Jue was the only calm student, quickly stabilizing the morale and arranging combat means.

Everyone was a second-grade student at Shi Laike. As the deputy monitor, Mo Jue had great prestige within the class, and everyone clearly trusted her, twisting their strength into a rope!

"The momentum on the opposite side seems to have changed, be careful not to flip the car." Xiang Xiang Naer teased.

"Say something auspicious next time."

Zhao Xuan glared at her angrily, flashed, and landed thirty meters away from the Shi Laike students.

"Assessment begins!"

Following Yali's order, both sides released their soul rings. The moment Zhao Xuan's three ten-thousand-year soul rings climbed from his feet, the Shi Laike group's eye sockets couldn't help but jump.

At the same time, the ten Shi Laike students exposed their cultivation. Swan Mo Jue was at the level of a four-ring Soul Sect, and the four purple soul rings emitted a noble radiance. Black feathers spread along her long hair to her chest, and her aura became viscous and dark.

Top-tier martial soul Black Swan, skilled in curses and long-range attacks.

Besides Mo Jue, the Shi Laike students also had a Soul Sect, Zhou Xin, whose soul rings were two yellow and two purple. A white-gold longbow was raised, his right hand on the bowstring, and his spirit, energy, and soul were increasing at an astonishing speed!

Heavy Light Bow, an extremely biased weapon martial soul, with no defense or control, only attack pushed to the extreme!

"Go!"

Mo Jue shouted coldly. Zhou Xin stayed in place to accumulate energy for the Heavy Light Bow, while the other eight Soul Elders were like tigers out of cages, each soul ring blooming with radiance, surrounding Zhao Xuan from all directions!

Shi Laike Academy recruits a batch every three years, only about a hundred people at a time. The students who can pass the assessment all have two brushes. Charging at the very front was an illusory black shadow, the Ghost Tiger Soul Elder!

A skull burning with black fire floated above Zhao Xuan's head. The Black Swan's curse came at the right time. The Ghost Tiger Soul Elder smiled coldly, his body swaying in the sprint, splitting into three figures that were hard to distinguish between true and false!

Third soul skill, Ghost Shadow Clone!

"Roar—"

The tiger's roar shook the sky, and the Ghost Tiger went forward without hesitation. In his line of sight, Zhao Xuan's pitch-black third soul ring shone brightly, his black hair turned into crystal-clear pale, and his body became like transparent glaze.

Half a second later, the Ghost Tiger Soul Elder's expression was suddenly terrified, because he saw Zhao Xuan's pair of pitch-black pupils staring fixedly at his true body. White light flashed, and Zhao Xuan's explosive speed was actually faster than this agility-type soul master!

"Boom!"

There was no way to avoid it at high speed. The Ghost Tiger Soul Elder couldn't change direction in time. Both sides collided heavily. The Ghost Tiger Soul Elder's facial features instantly distorted, a pain that life could not bear came from his lower abdomen, and his body flew into the air, his whole person like a bent shrimp in the air!

Punched into a folding screen!

The Xuanhua Axe Soul Elder roared and charged, the axe blade rolling up a gale. Zhao Xuan blocked with a "virtual step single whip," then "stepped forward and covered his hand to support the hammer."

The rigid and fierce power of the Yang hand attacked along the axe blade. The Xuanhua Axe Soul Elder's hands were numb, and the power and speed of his chopping were far inferior to before. Zhao Xuan twisted his waist and stepped through the axe light, the inch-force hidden under his elbow exploded, and the Xuanhua Axe Soul Elder's tall body trembled and collapsed softly to the ground!

In the blink of an eye, two Soul Elders lost their combat ability. At this moment, the Shi Laike students finally understood why Zhao Xuan dared to fight ten!

Arrogance requires ability, and he happened to have it!

The first soul ring lit up, "Qi follows the heart" attached to his palms, his arms drew a perfect circle, and his cross-hands locked the red-tasseled spear that attacked from the side. With a twist, the spear shaft curled, and Zhao Xuan's palm slid along the twisted spear shaft toward the Soul Elder's chest and abdomen, the dark force shaking his soul power to collapse.

Iron Bone Savage Bull and Dark Underworld Dragon Horse, two major Soul Elders, charged left and right, trying to reverse the unfavorable situation, but Zhao Xuan "supported, blocked, followed the trend, and leaned his arms," the single whip circled the bridge to form a "bundle of two," and after changing to "White Crane Spreads Wings," he struck both palms at their temples. The fatal killer move suddenly turned into a soft push when it touched the skin.

Both retreated violently, struggling to stabilize their bodies, looking at each other and smiling bitterly, lifting their martial soul possession. They felt Zhao Xuan's mercy and wisely withdrew from the battle, becoming spectators.

Watching the young man like a human tyrannosaurus sweeping across the battlefield, beating his teammates into screaming, the two realized in hindsight that they were sweating all over, quietly suspecting that this monster was not a human at all; this kind of power and technique was born for a machine of battle!

"Unparalleled technique..."

Yali's eyes were full of brilliance. This was undoubtedly a one-sided battle. Zhao Xuan's fist technique was like art, every move and style full of charm, taking into account both beauty and power. The so-called number of people was useless in front of crushing strength!

The average quality of the ten was far inferior to the Shi Laike team, and they lacked the 40% amplification of the three attributes of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Dealing with this group of soul masters of the same rank, Zhao Xuan was easily swimming like a dragon!

"Zhou Xin, aren't you done yet!"

A defense-type Soul Elder looked back and roared, his voice so shrill that it was sad to hear, mixed with the muffled sound of being beaten.

"Right away!"

Zhou Xin was sweating profusely. The Heavy Light Bow could fuse the soul master's entire soul power into one arrow, but this earth-shattering strike required a long preparation time!

Dead bow, hurry up and accumulate energy!

"Hum—"

Suddenly, the Heavy Light Bow made a crisp hum, as if white-gold light flames were overflowing from it. Zhou Xin's momentum immediately became confident, and the four major soul rings flashed one after another.

First soul skill "Break," penetration amplification! Second soul skill "Speed," speed increase! Third soul skill "Explode," hit triggers explosion! Fourth soul skill "Shine," light attribute greatly increased!

"Even if it's a five-ring Soul King, after taking this Aurora Arrow, they will be seriously injured!"

Zhou Xin narrowed his eyes, nocked an arrow, the bowstring was almost pulled into a full moon, and a white-gold feather arrow condensed by light shone with dazzling brilliance, breaking through the air and shooting straight at Zhao Xuan!

"Yin-Yang Reversal!"

Black and white vortexes rotated around Zhao Xuan, and the moment the Aurora Arrow rushed into the vortex, it rotated with the vortex. Seeing this scene, Zhou Xin, who had drained all the soul power in his body, turned pale and let out a loud... "Holy crap!"

In an instant, he lost control of the Aurora Arrow!

"Go back!"

Zhao Xuan played the second stage of Yin-Yang Reversal, the Aurora Arrow superimposed with the yin-yang airflow, rushing toward the Black Swan Mo Jue who was secretly casting curses!

The power of the Aurora Arrow was extraordinary. Mo Jue's first reaction was to flap her swan wings to dodge, but she soon found that Yin-Yang Reversal had a locking effect!

Yali, Li Lao, and other judges were dumbfounded. Absorption, rebound, and locking—the last soul master whose soul skill was so insidious was Tang Men's Many-Emotion Limit Douluo Zang Xin!

The purple soul ring at the end shone brightly, and Mo Jue had a dark green spear in her hand, with three skulls on the spear tip, representing three curse effects: weakness, fear, and pain!

Black Swan fourth soul skill, Curse Spear!

"Boom—"

The two soul skills squeezed against each other, light and dark forces were incompatible, crazily eroding each other. The Aurora Arrow after Yin-Yang Reversal was even better than the original version. Mo Jue fell from the sky, her feathers messy, and she suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Sorry, Sister Mo..."

Painfully hitting the beloved deputy monitor, Zhou Xin knelt on his knees, his eyebrows full of shame and regret. For some reason, Zhao Xuan seemed to see a little bit of pride in the power of the Heavy Light Bow from his eyebrows!

Mo Jue and Yu Yuanheng practiced in different directions, and both were absolute geniuses in their respective fields. Dealing with a soul master of Zhao Xuan's type, Yu Yuanheng was innately superior to Mo Jue.

Black Swan leaned towards curse weakening, more suitable for fighting with powerful teammates, and being the core that controls the whole field. This time the teammates were not powerful enough, and the clever woman couldn't cook without rice. Moreover, Mo Jue noticed a fatal problem: her curses were ineffective against Zhao Xuan, blocked by a will!

Mo Jue raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corners of her lips, her expression solemn. When she was a child, her elders told her that the Black Swan's curse was difficult to have the intended effect when facing soul masters with spiritual combat skills. Those soul masters had firm wills and were by no means shaken by dark curses!

"Nemesis..."

Trying to make her expression look calm, Mo Jue's trembling hands betrayed her heart, which was fluctuating violently. Martial soul nemesis meant being inferior to others for a lifetime. This feeling of always being inferior to others was not good.

The big sister Mo Jue's combat power was greatly reduced, the second brother Zhou Xin's soul power was exhausted, and he was a traitor. Only a few kittens and puppies were left among the ten Shi Laike students. Looking at Zhao Xuan who was approaching step by step, their throats surged and they swallowed a mouthful of saliva, their fighting spirit gone, their faces full of horror.

The scariest episode!

"Battle over."

There was no point in fighting anymore. Yali called a stop to the competition, her slender hands raised, and dots of life light fell into everyone's body, healing the wounds left by the battle.

"Fourth pass specialty assessment, eighth pass comprehensive combat, full score."

Yali looked at Zhao Xuan and nodded slightly to show affirmation.

The assessment continued, the fifth pass examined the secondary profession, third rank full score.

Xiang Xiang Naer was a fourth-rank mecha repairer, and Zhao Xuan was a fourth-rank in three major secondary professions. Both easily got full scores.

The sixth pass was appetite, forbidding the operation of soul power, relying on one's own appetite for the exam. Within thirty minutes, eating fifteen buns is a pass, every five more adds one point, and helping each other is allowed.

Two huge trays were stacked with buns like mountains. Yali and other examiners originally thought that an exam unrelated to combat power would give the two a headache, and then the thing that made them drop their jaws happened.

Xiang Xiang Naer performed eating a bun in three bites on the spot, *crunch, crunch, chew, chew*, and the bun mountain collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

At this time, the smart ghost wants to ask, did Zhao Xuan eat?

Of course not!

Two trays of buns were not enough for Xiang Xiang Naer to show off alone. Zhao Xuan didn't dare to reach out, for fear that Xiang Xiang Naer would protect her food and bite him!

Eating for thirty minutes, Xiang Xiang Naer finished two hundred buns in one breath, happily patted her flat little belly, and said, "Thirty percent full!"

The seventh pass was endurance test, with three assessments, not counting time: 10,000-meter run, 1,000 50kg squats, 1,000 pull-ups. Full score is finishing within one hour.

The body of the Body Martial Soul doesn't need to be said, Zhao Xuan easily handled it. Xiang Xiang Naer didn't spend much effort either. Her physical fitness was extremely excellent, even stronger than Gu Yue, who inherited 70% of the Silver Long Wang's power.

Zhao Xuan thought it had something to do with appetite. Even if the Silver Long Wang's physique was not as good as the Golden Long Wang's, it far exceeded 99% of soul beasts. Xiang Xiang Naer possessed a super appetite, which to some extent was inheriting the Silver Long Wang's physical ability.

The eighth pass comprehensive combat, the examinees were replaced with a batch, no longer Mo Jue's group. Zhao Xuan had already received a full score with the fourth pass earlier, and only Xiang Xiang Naer needed to take the exam.

Xiang Xiang Naer pointed to the soul master with the weakest individual combat power among the ten Shi Laike students, the weapon martial soul Soul-Sucking Bell, specializing in spiritual control.

That brother's spiritual power was not as high as Xiang Xiang Naer's. He threw out three soul skills and didn't even hear a sound, but almost got blown up by the Silver Baiyin Baiyin Longqiang. At the critical moment, Yali took action to save him.

As of now, both have full scores in eight exams!

A smile appeared on Holy Spirit Limit Douluo Yali's beautiful face. She let the two participate in the assessment, actually having already expected that the results would be very excellent, which gave Xiang Yunming a reason to prevaricate those stubborn Sea God Pavilion elders.

Every 100,000-year soul bone is a treasure of Shrek Academy and is not so easy to get. Although Yun Ming is the Sea God Pavilion Master, he cannot decide everything in Shrek Academy. Above him is still Light-Dark Douluo Long Yeyue.

The widow of the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, over two hundred years old. When Light-Dark Douluo became famous on the Douluo Continent, the Sky-Piercing Douluo hadn't been born yet. Long Yeyue is like the Empress Dowager of Shrek Academy. It is difficult for Yun Ming to do things she strongly opposes.

Unlike all previous assessments, the ninth pass was a dark room, without gorgeous decorations. The inside of the room was built with metal, and soul guidance screens were hanging on the walls.

"The ninth pass is called survival test. The environment is quite similar to the Spirit Tower's Spirit Ascension Platform, and soul beasts exist in reality. Killing soul beasts can absorb soul rings, and you may also get other spoils."

A middle-aged teacher's tone was full of deep meaning. After a few instructions, he walked to the side and pressed the button.

The two appeared in a dense primeval forest. Zhao Xuan knew what the ninth pass was about—a classic human nature assessment. Xiang Xiang Naer didn't know at all, sighing that Shi Laike had high-end technology comparable to the Spirit Tower.

The old actor Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Three-Eyed Jin Ni were fighting fiercely. The two super ten-thousand-year soul beasts were not enemies they could fight against. Zhao Xuan and Xiang Xiang Naer left the battle circle and found a pitch-black cave.

"Roar—"

A childish cry came from the depths of the cave, and a golden light attacked. Xiang Xiang Naer's eyes focused, the Silver Baiyin Baiyin Longqiang slashed out a spear light, and the golden light smashed into the stone wall on the side.

The golden light was a Three-Eyed Jin Ni, with a cultivation equivalent to a ten-year soul beast. It looked like a big dog, its third eye on the top of its head had not yet opened, and it fell to the ground, its body twitching incessantly.

"Little Three-Eyed Jin Ni!" Xiang Xiang Naer pulled Zhao Xuan to the front of the Three-Eyed Jin Ni, her silver-white eyes shining brightly. "It is said that the Three-Eyed Jin Ni must explode a head soul bone, and the Three-Eyed Jin Ni head bone, like an external soul bone, can evolve continuously. The method is to devour other head soul bones.

We are so lucky, but...

The Three-Eyed Jin Ni is also known as the Emperor Auspicious Beast, unique in the world. Ten thousand years ago, it sacrificed itself to Spirit Ice Limit Douluo Huo Yuhao. Where did Shi Laike get the Three-Eyed Jin Ni?"

Zhao Xuan leaned back tactically, looking surprised, his eyes as if they could speak: "Classmate Xiang Xiang Naer, is this the wisdom you should have?"

Reading Zhao Xuan's eyes, Xiang Xiang Naer's cheeks puffed up like a pufferfish, and she said angrily: "You are insulting my peerless wisdom, but I have no evidence to fly into a rage."

"Don't dare, don't dare, Xiang Xiang Naer the Great, the end of wisdom."

Xiang Xiang Naer hummed: "The adult doesn't remember the villain's fault, I forgive you.

What to do now? Is this little Three-Eyed Jin Ni real or fake? Can it explode a head soul bone? Shall we kill it and try?"

"You really have no mercy..."

Zhao Xuan discovered that Xiang Xiang Naer had no feelings for soul beasts at all. She said kill the Emperor Auspicious Beast if she wanted to!

"Don't worry, I have a plan."

Between killing and letting go, Zhao Xuan found a third way to pass.

"Plan come!"

"It's not difficult to distinguish the true from the false Three-Eyed Jin Ni. Think about what my soul spirit is."

"Oh right, shouldn't underestimate the bond between auspicious beasts!" Xiang Xiang Naer suddenly realized.

"Tun Tun, it's decided to be you!"

The Spirit Auspicious Water Pig appeared with a *duang*. Its cultivation broke through to ten thousand years. Tun Tun's appearance didn't change much, but the yin-yang imprint in the center of its eyebrows became deeper and deeper, and its eyes became more agile.

"Tun Tun." Xiang Xiang Naer rubbed the Spirit Auspicious Water Pig's head and said with a smile, "Help us identify the Emperor Auspicious Beast!"

Outside, the examiners led by Holy Spirit Limit Douluo Yali looked at the scene on the screen, one by one dumbfounded: "We don't have an auspicious beast, how do you two really have an auspicious beast!"

Are you kidding me? Just quarrel honestly!

Zhao Xuan had never released his soul spirit to assist in battle in front of others. Who knew it was a one-in-ten-thousand auspicious beast!

The Spirit Auspicious Water Pig moved slowly to the front of the Three-Eyed Jin Ni, its moist nose tip slowly approaching, sniffing the aura deep in its bloodline.

"Tun Tun, is this little guy an Emperor Auspicious Beast?" Xiang Xiang Naer asked.

"No." The Spirit Auspicious Water Pig established a spiritual connection and shook its head, "It has the appearance but no auspicious aura of the auspicious beast clan."

Hearing this, Xiang Xiang Naer clenched her left hand and knocked on her right palm, saying wittily: "There is only one truth!

There is no Three-Eyed Jin Ni at all, it's just a little trick of Shi Laike to test people's hearts!"
