Chapter 193 Red-Level Seventh Test Ye Lingling
With five of the six having already crossed the Sea Within a Sea, Seahorse Douluo was somewhat dumbfounded. What kind of monsters were these six, especially this fifteen-year-old girl? Was she really fifteen?
In particular, after careful observation, Seahorse Douluo discovered that this fifteen-year-old girl had excellent marksmanship, exaggerated strength and speed, and her physical strength was somewhat frightening. Although she was a power-attack type Soul Master, her defensive capabilities were probably no worse than those of the pure defense type Soul Masters mentioned earlier.
While Seahorse Douluo was still doubting himself, Yang Podi also began to cross the Sea within the Sea.
Yang Podi focused his Geng Metal Qi on the outside of his body, forming a spherical protective shield. This was Yang Podi's understanding and application of spear and sword intent, and it was also because after absorbing the Golden Behemoth Soul Ring, he was already extremely close to the ultimate metal.
Yang Podi summoned countless spear intents to form a protective shield, and walked straight across the sea, the process unhurried and leisurely, as if taking a leisurely stroll.
Upon seeing this, Seahorse Douluo quickly waved his hand, causing the waves to become extremely turbulent, with countless sea spirit beasts attacking along the waves.
However, whether it was the waves or the sea spirit beasts, when they approached the protective shield, the sea spirit beasts were directly repelled, and the waves vanished into nothingness, as if sliced apart by countless tiny spear intents. This was only because Yang Podi had deliberately controlled the intensity of the spear intents; otherwise, all of these sea spirit beasts would have been annihilated.
Yang Podi strolled leisurely across the Sea of Seas and arrived in front of Seahorse Douluo, making it seem like he was taking a walk, leaving Seahorse Douluo speechless once again.
What surprised Seahorse Douluo the most was that he couldn't see through the examinee's specific soul power level, and even he himself felt threatened by that Geng metal aura.
Seahorse Douluo finally swallowed hard: "Hello, congratulations on passing the Sea of the Sea's test. May I ask your specific soul power level and age?"
Yang Podi quickly bowed to Seahorse Douluo: "Senior Seahorse Douluo, my name is Yang Podi, I am 21 years old, I come from the Po Clan, my martial soul is the Soul Breaking Spear, I am an 85th-level Power Attack type Soul Douluo, and I am currently a student of Tianxing Academy."
Seahorse Douluo seemed a little surprised: "The Breaking Clan? The Breaking Clan, one of the four single-attribute families that were formerly affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect? I didn't expect the Breaking Clan to produce a genius like you."
Yang Podi spoke with a serious expression: "Senior Seahorse Douluo, during the war with the Clear Sky Sect, my Po clan left the Clear Sky Sect and no longer belongs to any power. We will neither submit to the Clear Sky Sect nor the Spirit Hall. Now, the entire clan has established the Skywalk Academy in the Almo Mountains near the far north and no longer interferes in any conflicts in the Spirit Master world."
Seahorse Douluo nodded, then asked the five people around him, "Which faction do you all belong to?"
Yang Tianyue spoke first: "Junior Yang Tianyue, Martial Soul Breaking Spear, born into the Breaking Clan, now belongs to Tianxing Academy."
The other four people also spoke up one after another.
"This junior is Yang Ping'an, whose martial soul is the Soul-Breaking Spear. He was born into the Breaking Clan and now belongs to Tianxing Academy."
"This junior is Dugu Yan, whose martial soul is the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor. I was born into the Azure Phosphorous Clan and am now a member of the Heavenly Path Academy."
"This junior is Ye Lingling, whose martial soul is Nine Heart Begonia. She was born into the Nine Heart Begonia family and is now a student of Tianxing Academy."
Seahorse Douluo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; at least these geniuses weren't born into the Spirit Hall.
However, Seahorse Douluo was still a little confused: "What kind of force is Tianxing Academy? I've never heard of it before."
Yang Podi smiled and replied, "I am the Champion Marquis conferred by the Heaven Dou Empire. My fief is in Almo Mountain. Our Po Clan, Yu Clan, Nine Heart Begonia Clan, and Bilin Clan have all moved to Almo Mountain and jointly established the Heavenly Journey Academy. We only want to teach and educate people and no longer participate in the struggles of the Soul Master world."
Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but nod: "Establishing an academy away from the sect wars on Douluo Continent is indeed a good idea. You are qualified to be tested by Lord Sea God."
However, Seahorse Douluo's gaze suddenly deepened: "So, the purpose of the six of you coming to Seagod Island is not to join it?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Yang Tianyue and Yang Podi.
Yang Podi said resolutely, "My main purpose in coming to Poseidon Island is to gain experience and become stronger. I think the Sea God will not refuse to test me."
Yang Tianyue, on the other hand, looked rather solemn: "Senior Seahorse Douluo, my goal in coming here is to join Seagod Island."
Seahorse Douluo was still a little confused, but Yang Podi continued, "Senior Seahorse Douluo, you should understand the specifics after we undergo the Sea God's assessment. Our coming to undergo the assessment is also the Sea God's decree."
Upon hearing Yang Podi say it was the will of the Sea God, Seahorse Douluo seemed somewhat moved, but ultimately still spoke: "No matter what your reasons are for participating in the assessment, you must remember that once you participate in the assessment and join our Sea God Island, you cannot leave unless there are special circumstances."
Yang Podi and the other six nodded solemnly.
Seahorse Douluo walked very solemnly toward the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, his face seemingly very devout: "One person, step forward to receive confirmation of the Sea God's test."
Before Yang Podi could even step forward, Yang Ping'an had already walked ahead, making Yang Podi a little puzzled: What's going on with Ping'an lately? This isn't like him at all. He seems more responsible than before, and more eager to show off. Yang Podi felt that something was off, as if he had missed something.
Yang Podi couldn't help but look at the other four, who seemed quite unfazed, leaving Yang Podi himself somewhat puzzled.
Before Yang Podi could think further, he saw the Seahorse Douluo in front of him looking at the Seahorse Sacred Pillar with great reverence, his hands outstretched in front of his chest, as if performing some kind of special ritual.
Immediately afterwards, a blue light appeared between Seahorse Douluo's hands, and this light seemed to echo the Seahorse Sacred Pillar. As if stimulated by something, the inscriptions on the entire Seahorse Sacred Pillar suddenly began to light up, from bottom to top, and finally, a powerful blue light seemed to shine at the top of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar.
Then, Seahorse Douluo turned around, pointed at Yang Ping'an, and a huge blue light emanated from the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, enveloping Yang Ping'an.
Yang Ping'an seemed unresponsive, his eyes even showing a hint of confusion.
The blue light shining on Yang Ping'an seemed to gradually change, from its original azure blue to white, then to purple, and finally to black. The black became increasingly deep, eventually transforming into six light screens that appeared in front of Yang Ping'an. The first light screen displayed something, while the other five light screens were completely black, displaying nothing.
Immediately afterwards, the black light curtain transformed into a burst of black light, which surged into Yang Ping'an's brow, forming a black hexagon.
Upon seeing this, Seahorse Douluo's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but shake his head: "Black-level sixth trial, I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse for you."
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but continue, "The Black-level Sixth Trial is two levels higher than mine. I was tested at Black-level Fourth Trial. The trials given by Lord Sea God are graded. The difficulty of the trials varies depending on the grade. Like the colors of the spirit rings, from lowest to highest, they are White-level, Yellow-level, Purple-level, Black-level, and the top-level Red-level trial. The content of the trials is shown on the light screen that just appeared. Only the examinee and the examiner can know the details. The trials are based not only on the examinee's strength but also on their potential. This is Lord Sea God's decree."
"The sixth Black-level trial is the most difficult of all Black-level trials. Among the Seven Sacred Pillars of the Sea God, only the strongest, Sea Dragon Douluo, has passed the sixth Black-level trial, while the other six have passed the fourth Black-level trial."
"Especially for you land-based soul masters, it is a thousand times more difficult. For sea-based soul masters, each assessment takes ten years, but for you land-based soul masters, each assessment only takes one year. The difficulty is dozens of times that of sea-based soul masters."
"Moreover, once you participate in the assessment, there is no possibility of backing down. Whether you try to escape halfway or fail the assessment, the mark between your eyebrows will explode, directly destroying your soul."
Upon hearing these words, Yang Tianyue and the other three all became very serious. However, Yang Ping'an's expression remained unchanged, and instead became even more resolute: "Thank you for your guidance, Seahorse Douluo. I am confident that I will pass the test."
Seahorse Douluo shook his head: "It's good that you have confidence, but sometimes, confidence, strength, courage, and opportunity are all indispensable. Back then, I was only at the fourth level of the Black Rank, but I faced many dangerous situations, especially the last one, where I had to face attacks from countless Demon Soul Great White Sharks. It was like walking through the gates of hell. Do you still have confidence after that?"
Yang Ping'an glanced back at Yang Podi and the other four, seemingly having made up his mind: "Lord Seahorse Douluo, I am confident that even if I die, I will never back down."
Looking at Yang Ping'an's determined eyes, Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but nod: "Very good. As your examiner, I also hope you can pass the test."
The others seemed to be infected as well, and they all stepped forward, ready to undergo the test of Seahorse Douluo.
Yang Podi felt that Yang Ping'an's gaze when he turned back to look at the five people was a little strange, as if he had something in mind, but he still couldn't figure it out.
The second to take the stage was Niu Meng. After the ceremony, four light screens were formed, and the assessment consisted of four tests at the Black Level.
The third to take the stage was Dugu Yan, whose assessment consisted of the Black Level Five Tests.
Seahorse Douluo looked at the three of them and couldn't help but feel puzzled. Why had the Black-level assessment suddenly become so frequent? In the past, there was only one every few years, but now there were three at once, and it seemed that there were three more with even more terrifying talents to come.
The fourth to take the stage was Ye Lingling. Her light also shone brightly. The blue light emitted by the Seahorse Sacred Pillar changed from blue to white, then from white to purple, from purple to black, and finally became deeper and deeper, eventually turning into red. Moreover, after turning red, it also became deeper and deeper, turning into a deep red.
Finally, seven beams of light appeared in front of Ye Lingling, transforming into a red seven-pointed star that merged into Ye Lingling's brow.
At this moment, Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but gasp, and even paused for a moment before speaking: "Red-level Seventh Trial."
Seahorse Douluo seemed to realize something and quickly bowed to Ye Lingling: "Miss, it is an honor to be your examiner. I hope everything goes well for you."
Niu Meng, standing to the side, seemed a little puzzled: "Senior Seahorse Douluo, aren't they all assessments? How come there's such a big difference?"
Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but roll his eyes at Niu Meng, this brute: "Although both the Black-level and Red-level assessments are top-tier assessments, the Black-level assessment corresponds to the Seven Sacred Pillars of Seagod Island, with an extremely high mortality rate. Successfully passing the assessment makes one a candidate for one of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Seagod Island. The Red-level assessment corresponds to the Grand Elder of Seagod Island, and no one has ever failed since its inception. As long as Miss Ye Lingling passes the assessment, she will be the successor to the Grand Elder and the future head of Seagod Island."
Yang Tianyue and the other three looked at each other, unsure of what to say, but their expressions changed as they watched Ye Lingling.
Niu Meng, however, remained stubborn: "Senior, according to you, the Red-level assessment is much easier than the Black-level assessment?"
Hearing this, Seahorse Douluo almost cursed, but finally had no choice but to say, "Of course not. The Red-level assessment is a level higher than the Black-level assessment, and it is much more difficult. However, so far, no one has failed the Red-level assessment. Every time someone fails, it signifies the appearance of an unparalleled powerhouse like a Grand Elder."
However, after Seahorse Douluo finished speaking, he fell silent. The little girl in front of him was a healing-type Soul Master, and no matter how you looked at it, she could never become an unparalleled powerhouse like the Grand Elder.
Yang Podi, standing to the side, began to understand. Only Niu Meng, who had passed the fourth Black-level trial, possessed the Plate Armored Giant Rhinoceros Martial Soul, which had not evolved. Dugu Yan's Martial Soul was now the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, which could barely be considered a top-grade Martial Soul, but it was only at the level of a Title Douluo. It was estimated that it would be difficult for him to surpass level 95 in the future.
Yang Ping'an's martial soul and bloodline have actually evolved, and should be considered as a Dragon Soul Spear. From any perspective, he is definitely a strongman.
Ye Lingling's martial soul was originally the Nine-Heart Begonia. Now that her martial soul has evolved, coupled with the transformation of her body by the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, it is probably a top-grade martial soul. In particular, her extreme life attribute is something that even Yang Podi himself is amazed by.
