Capítulo 530: Chapter 526: The Gap Between People, It's My Turn to Perform, Right?_1
Poseissi hesitated for a moment.
She gently shook her head.
"You wait a bit longer, let's watch others try it first," she said.
"Don't you trust me?" Luo Yu raised an eyebrow.
Poseissi didn't respond, but her expression clearly suggested that if Luo Yu were to go up, he would definitely face difficulties.
"Then let the people on this island have a try first," Luo Yu shook his head and folded his arms.
A sigh of relief escaped Poseissi's heart.
She had been really worried that Luo Yu would ignore her advice, obstinately make his way up the stairs, and if he ended up hurt and bleeding, wouldn't it reflect poorly on the Sea God?
"Sea Star, Sea Dragon, let these young warriors of the island who are taking the purple rank and above trial go up the staircase," she commanded.
"As you wish," they replied.
The seven guardians, including the Sea Star Douluo, immediately ordered the youths behind them to prepare to ascend the stairs.
They were also informed about the fierceness of these stairs.
"Tiny Droplets!"
Soon, the new generation of exceptional talents of the island stepped onto the jade stairs, cloaked in a hazy colorful light.
The moment they stepped on, the faces of nearly all the youths changed instantly.
Clearly, there was something about the situation that shocked them a great deal.
When they reached the second stair, some visibly had their foreheads throb with veins as if they were experiencing intense pressure.
By the time they collectively reached the fifth stair, Luo Yu saw that some of their legs were already shaking with weakness, and others even had cold sweat on their foreheads.
"Step!"
When these young warriors reached the sixth stair, someone's lips turned white, trembling rapidly.
Their faces also distorted with ferocity as they gritted their teeth and persevered.
"Someone is not going to make it," Sea Horse Douluo said with a tight frown.
"Hmm?" Purple Pearl looked somewhat puzzled at the side, "Brother Yu, is there something wrong with these jade stairs? They are only on the sixth out of a thousand and one steps, and they're already struggling to keep up?"
Luo Yu passed his fingertips through Purple Pearl's hair, smiling faintly, "Of course, there's nothing wrong with the jade stairs, but these people are simply too weak to withstand the pressure that comes with the Sea God's Light covering the stairs."
"Should I give it a try?" asked Purple Pearl, curious.
"Oh?" Luo Yu inquired, "Does your trial also include passing through the Sea God's Light?"
"Yes," nodded Purple Pearl, "I need to get through fifty steps."
Luo Yu laughed, "You're not in a hurry; I'll take you up later."
"Is it even possible to take someone with you?" Purple Pearl was clearly hesitant.
Because these talented youths on the island, who seemed quite capable, were at this moment struggling to stabilize themselves on the stairs, let alone carry someone else.
Luo Yu waved his hand dismissively.
"Taking someone up there is a piece of cake," he said.
"Don't compare them to me; they aren't up to par."
"Tch."
The Sea Illusion Douluo couldn't help but let out a laugh.
"No way, I am a professional, but after hearing your words, I couldn't help myself," he confessed.
"I respect your status as a successor, but you really seem to disregard the trials set by the Sea God."
"Didn't you see how hard it was for others just to climb one step?"
"And yet you're entertaining the fanciful thought of taking someone up with you?"
Luo Yu glanced at him.
"If you know nothing, then just keep your eyes wide open and watch closely, learn something," he chided.
"You!" Sea Illusion Douluo was quite taken aback by Luo Yu's retort, and just as he was about to react, he caught sight of Poseissi's silver, cold and beautiful eyes and immediately shuddered into silence.
Still, deep down he was not convinced.
He couldn't believe that Luo Yu not only had the strength to climb up on his own but also had the capacity to take someone else with him.
Keep boasting, let's see if your face gets slapped later.
He took one precautionary look at Poseissi, lamenting inside that even if this guy failed the challenge, he probably couldn't mock him.
Such a pity.
"Puchi!"
With a scream, a young man spat out a mist of blood and fell down from the eleventh step.
His face was as pale as golden paper.
The purple mark on his forehead was dim and lightless.
It was not only him; after he fell, the sound of people hitting the ground and vomiting blood followed one after another.
One by one, young men with purple marks on their foreheads fell from their positions on more than a dozen steps.
Sea Dragon Douluo and the others used their Soul Power to catch them, showing no sign of panic on their faces, as if they had anticipated this situation.
Sea Star Douluo's lips curled into a slight smile.
"The young fellows on the island this time are really not bad, managing to climb over fifteen steps with a purple rank qualification."
"Yes, they've already surpassed the previous ones," Sea Horse Douluo said, praising them as he reminisced.
Purple Pearl tugged at Luo Yu's clothes secretly and asked softly, "Brother Yu, is it really as they say, that getting past over a dozen steps is that impressive?"
Luo Yu shrugged his shoulders.
"It's not that I think it's impressive, it's that they think it's impressive."
"Does Brother Yu think they're not good?" Purple Pearl asked, puzzled.
"What else? There are a total of one thousand and one steps, and these purple rank aspirants exerted all their strength just to climb a dozen or so. Do you think I should praise them?" Luo Yu retorted.
"That... does seem pretty bad," Purple Pearl slowly said.
Sea Dragon Douluo's eyelid twitched uncontrollably as he couldn't help but interject,
"Young lady, don't listen to his nonsense. The ordeal of the Sea God's Light is extremely terrifying. Even with my Cultivation Level, it's impossible to complete the whole journey under the pressure of the Sea God's Light."
Luo Yu patted Poseissi's shoulder and raised his eyebrows in the direction of Sea Dragon Douluo.
"This guy says I'm talking nonsense."
"Wouldn't that be a great disrespect to my husband?"
"Hiss—"
This scene made Sea Dragon Douluo utterly irritated, was he actually being reported on?
In his whole life, when had he ever been threatened by a young man?
Sea Dragon Douluo protested, "Did I say anything wrong just now?"
"Sea Dragon, silence! Do not speak against the Divine Child," Poseissi rebuked coldly.
"I said, stop calling me Divine Child," Luo Yu frowned.
Poseissi's beautiful eyes flashed as she bit her lip and said, "Do not speak against Lord Husband."
Sea Dragon Douluo's mindset collapsed.
Where had the cold and distant Goddess Poseidon he admired gone? Even if the young man had received the Sea God's legacy, there was no need to obey him so submissively, right?
"Bang Bang Bang!"
The sounds of tumbling and falling echoed one after another.
The young men with purple marks who had fallen earlier, and now the proud ones with black marks, could no longer withstand the pressure and tumbled down, vomiting blood.
At the thirty-first step, as the last young man fell, the stairs, covered in the Sea God's Light, were left empty.
One by one, the young men struggled to their feet, wiping the blood from the corners of their mouths.
Fear flickered in their eyes.
"It's too hard, just too hard."
"With every step taken, it felt as if a weight of a thousand catties was added to the body, it's too terrifying."
"Who could possibly make it to the end? That's just a joke."
Seeing this, Sea Star Douluo couldn't stand by any longer and clapped her hands.
"Quiet down, everyone, it's alright to fail. For your first attempt at passing through the Sea God's Light, reaching such a level is already quite good."
"After all, the Sea God's Light was originally meant to protect the temple at the mountain's peak, it's not something that you young people can brute-force your way through."
"I have high hopes for you all, I hope you continue to strive hard."
Luo Yu smiled at Purple Pearl and said,
"The way she's serving up this motivational speech, I give her full marks."
Having said that, he stretched lazily, looking towards Poseissi, who wore a red robe and had a fiery figure.
"I guess it's our turn to perform now."
