บท 193: Chapter 193: Xiao Wu: Brother Bai, See How Smart I Am?
After a few days of rest, the group gathered again.
Everyone sat together, drinking special fruit juice made on Sea God Island and chatting.
As they chatted, the topic turned to the contents of the second trial.
After all, several days had passed since they completed the first trial.
The girls had tasted the benefits of the assessment.
Naturally, they wanted to continue advancing to gain more rewards.
Xiao Wu asked Su Renxue, "Xiaoxue, what's the content of the second trial?"
Su Renxue said, "Xiao Wu, Mom, the second trial is similar to the Sea within the Sea. You have to successfully pass through a circular passage."
Hu Liena added, "Xiaoxue, this second trial shouldn't be that simple, right?"
Su Renxue nodded and said, "That's right. In the second trial, you need to pass through the circular passage, which is filled with countless sea soul beasts. The assessment requires you to reach the other side without killing any sea soul beasts."
"Ah, another trial like this? It's so annoying," Ning Rongrong said, feeling a bit aggrieved.
She was just a little support spirit master with neither agility nor combat strength.
Such an assessment seemed specifically designed to target her.
She quickly asked, "Xiaoxue, can we team up for this assessment?"
Su Renxue shook her head and said, "No, at least when I was being assessed, I had to pass it alone."
"I tried countless times before finally succeeding."
Ning Rongrong pouted in frustration.
This was just too unfair.
Xiao Wu, with her fists clenched in excitement, said, "This doesn't sound too difficult!"
The other girls were speechless.
This was simply too much of a humblebrag.
Yes, you're strong, and it might not be difficult for you.
But what about the others?
Especially Ning Rongrong, who felt utterly disheartened by Xiao Wu's words.
Moreover, the trial was filled with many sea soul beasts, and they couldn't attack them.
The difficulty was significantly increased.
After some discussion, they decided to go and see the situation for themselves.
So,
Under Su Renxue's guidance, they arrived at the second trial's location.
It was a stone platform suspended in mid-air.
Below the platform was the vast ocean.
Countless sea soul beasts poked their heads out of the water.
Some were as low as a thousand years, while others were over ten thousand years.
The stone platform at the destination was quite far away.
It was almost impossible to jump straight to it.
The girls felt a bit troubled.
Su Bai nodded silently.
The distance wasn't too difficult for him.
But upon entering this place, his assessment content was also determined.
Like the others, his second trial required passing through without harming any sea soul beasts.
However, there was an additional requirement for him.
He was not allowed to use any spirit power.
Using it would mean failure.
But who was Su Bai? He was a dragon.
His physical strength was invincible.
This distance was child's play for him.
He estimated that using just half his strength should allow him to easily leap across.
"This distance is too far! How are we supposed to cross it?" Ning Rongrong looked at the vast distance and felt a wave of despair.
She couldn't fly. Was she supposed to swim across?
But with so many sea soul beasts in the water, they definitely wouldn't let her pass.
It was difficult.
Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang felt the same.
With so many sea soul beasts in the water, some of which were quite powerful, they weren't confident they could make it across.
"Let me try!"
Hu Liena had some confidence.
Her spirit power was the highest, aside from Xiao Wu.
She had observed that although there were many sea soul beasts, their strength wasn't that high.
With her strength, as long as she was careful, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Su Bai nodded lightly and cautioned, "Nana, be careful!"
Hu Liena smiled and nodded, indicating she understood.
She took a step forward.
Su Bai focused his attention.
If Hu Liena encountered any danger, he would intervene immediately.
Hu Liena took a deep breath and then leaped.
She began her trial.
She first used the heads of the sea soul beasts as footholds, continuously leaping from one to another.
Hu Liena moved quickly, covering a quarter of the distance in just a few breaths.
She felt a sense of relief.
If it continued like this, passing wouldn't be too difficult.
Boom~
Suddenly, Hu Liena's expression changed.
A huge wave rose from the sea.
A massive sea soul beast appeared, its tail whipping through the water with incredible speed.
Hu Liena couldn't react in time and crossed her arms to protect herself.
Wham~
She was sent flying.
Fortunately, Su Bai caught her in time and brought her back to the starting point. Concerned, he asked, "Nana, are you alright?"
Hu Liena shook her head.
It seemed the sea soul beast hadn't used much force, just enough to repel her.
The girls then noticed the sea soul beast.
Their expressions changed drastically.
A hundred-thousand-year Demon Soul Great White Shark.
The sea soul beast was Xiao Bai.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Bai was the guardian of the second trial.
This made things much more difficult.
The trial was already tough, but with Xiao Bai, a hundred-thousand-year sea soul beast, guarding it, the difficulty increased several times.
Even Hu Liena couldn't confidently pass.
At this moment,
Xiao Bai spoke, "That's right, I'm the guardian of the second trial, and I won't go easy on you. If you want to pass the Sea God's assessment, it won't be easy."
Ning Rongrong looked at Su Renxue with a hint of resentment, "Xiaoxue, you didn't tell us that Xiao Bai was the guardian of the second trial."
Su Renxue smiled awkwardly.
She couldn't help it. Xiao Bai had forbidden her from revealing it.
Moreover, she had gone through great hardships to succeed.
During her numerous battles with Xiao Bai, they even became good friends.
Despite the difficulty, the girls didn't give up.
They each began to try.
After Hu Liena, Zhu Zhuqing attempted the trial.
Like Hu Liena, she was quickly sent back by Xiao Bai.
Bai Chenxiang faced the same outcome.
Ning Rongrong also tried.
She was the most vulnerable. After barely entering the water, she was so frightened by the fierce sea soul beasts that she immediately called for Su Bai's help.
After Su Bai rescued her, she was drenched and looked very distressed.
This trial was too harsh on support spirit masters.
And the requirement to go solo made it even worse.
Could she really complete the assessment?
"Let me try!"
Finally, Xiao Wu stepped forward, full of confidence.
After all, she was a 96th-level Title Douluo.
Moreover, in the first trial, each of her spirit rings' years had increased by ten thousand.
Her strength had improved significantly.
Xiao Bai was no match for her.
But the requirement was not to harm any sea soul beasts.
Therefore, she couldn't attack Xiao Bai.
But Xiao Wu had already thought of a way to deal with it.
She walked to the edge of the platform.
She bent her body slightly.
With a powerful push from her right leg, she leaped into the air.
