บท 3782: Chapter 3229

Jiang Qiyue nodded her head and proactively retreated to the safe zone, folding her arms as she stared intently ahead...

And Long Yuxue, she too walked up to the control panel, took a deep breath, and lightly pressed a certain button!

In an instant, the entire spacious field was enveloped by an invisible protective barrier that also restricted the use of Soul Power!

Immediately following was a loud "bang" as the cage door burst open. A massive soul beast inside surged out, releasing a tremendous roar...

Especially those eyes glowing with a crimson light, which unmistakably had set their sights on Xu Sheng as prey!

Xu Sheng merely glanced at it and had already discerned its cultivation level, her face showing not the slightest ripple of emotion...

Using a soul beast with four thousand years of cultivation for assessment, and prohibiting the use of Soul Power, if it were any ordinary soldier from other armies, they'd likely become its food in an instant!

Just this fact alone was enough to demonstrate the superior strength of the Ferocious God Legion by a considerable margin!

Seeing this, Long Yuxue called out sharply, "The assessment starts now! If you feel in danger, shout out immediately, and I will activate the Binding Chains!"

No sooner had her words fallen, the leopard-shaped soul beast, around five to six meters in size, suddenly sprung forward, darting toward Xu Sheng like a specter...

In the blink of an eye, it reached her and extended its razor-sharp claws, tearing through the air...

Just as it was about to strike, Jiang Qiyue couldn't help but cry out, "Careful!"

However, the expected bloody scene didn't occur. The soul beast's claws unexpectedly passed right through...

Simultaneously, Xu Sheng also vanished from her spot like an illusion...

All of what transpired in these few seconds had caused both Jiang Qiyue and Long Yuxue's beautiful eyes to shine with awe...

The former exclaimed in astonishment, "Such incredible speed! And without using her Martial Soul, she's managed to leave afterimages!"

The latter narrowed her eyes and analyzed silently, "This soul beast is a Lightning Leopard, immensely adept at speed, yet even so, it missed its target! This new recruit must be no ordinary soldier!"

The Lightning Leopard, recovering swiftly, spun around and locked onto Xu Sheng, who had somehow appeared behind it, and dove once more...

Yet, the outcome was clear; it didn't even graze the hem of Xu Sheng's clothes!

Xu Sheng, evading the attacks nonstop, said with a light smile, "Officers, I think you can release a few more soul beasts, or else... this assessment might come to an early end!"

After speaking, she halted her steps and suddenly kicked the Lightning Leopard in the abdomen, repelling it several tens of meters...

Upon hearing these words, Long Yuxue's gaze instinctively shifted toward Jiang Qiyue!

Who would have thought that the latter would also cast her glance, giving a subtle nod, clearly aware that relying on this sole soul beast was ineffectual against Xu Sheng!

With that thought, Long Yuxue pressed several more buttons...

"Buzz, buzz, buzz," as the cage doors opened once more, two more extremely ferocious soul beasts joined the fray...

Together with the Lightning Leopard, the three soul beasts appeared to reach a consensus, converging on Xu Sheng from all directions...

...

Xu Sheng nodded slightly, "Of course, if you're unwilling to go, just tell me which passage will do!"

Jiang Qiyue immediately rejected the idea, "That's too risky, sending a new recruit alone!"

If he were to fall in the S-Grade Abyssal Passage, it would be a substantial loss for the Ferocious God Legion!

Xu Sheng smiled faintly, "So that means, you're willing to accompany me?"

He could sense Jiang Qiyue's concerns and thus did not intend to press her...

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Qiyue bit her lower lip, hesitating...

She didn't want to enter the S-grade Abyssal Passage, yet she also felt uneasy about letting the former go in alone...

Just then, Long Yuxue, who had just returned from the Level C Abyssal Passage, saw the two of them and exclaimed in surprise, "July, Xu Sheng, what are you doing here?"

And behind her, Tang Wulin and Gu Yue also spoke in unison, "Teacher Xu! Officer Jiang."

Xu Sheng glanced at them and nodded as a greeting!

Jiang Qiyue came back to her senses and said resentfully, "General Long wanted me to bring Xu Sheng for a visit to the Abyssal Passage!"

Long Yuxue pondered for a moment and said, "I see, we just came back from the Level C Abyssal Passage too! It's not completely dark yet, you should hurry on!"

Jiang Qiyue rolled her eyes, "I would if I could, but Xu Sheng wants to go to the S-grade Abyssal Passage!"

The usually composed Long Yuxue was suddenly confused and said in shock, "What? Enter the S-grade Abyssal Passage?"

"Yes, I want to see the creatures inside the S-grade Abyssal Passage and what level their strength is at!"

Beyond that, she wanted to see if there were beings in this space that could threaten the Divine Realm!

After a pause, she turned to Xu Sheng and said, "Xu Sheng, you've only just come into contact with the Abyssal Passage, you should choose one below A-level, even July and I haven't entered an S-grade Abyssal Passage!"

"The danger in there far exceeds your imagination!"

Tang Wulin also seriously added, "Teacher Xu, I think Commander Long has a point too. The Abyssal Passage has an extremely strong suppression effect on Soul Masters, rendering us unable to release soul skills and greatly reducing Soul Power!"

"Although you're very strong, there's no need to take this risk!"

Gu Yue also nodded in agreement…

With such a strong suppression power in the Level C Abyssal Passage, an S-grade Abyssal Passage might even prevent Soul Masters from using half of their true capabilities!

Seeing everyone persuading her, Xu Sheng did not insist on going her own way, responding, "Well… okay then, July, lead me to the A-level Abyssal Passage."

It seemed she would have to wait for another opportunity to venture into the S-grade Abyssal Passage!

Jiang Qiyue immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "If it's the A-level Abyssal Passage, then there's no problem!"

Although the A-level Abyssal Passage was also very dangerous, it paled in comparison to the S-grade Abyssal Passage!

Long Yuxue waved her hand, "Then you two should go quickly, we'll head back to the Special Service Department!"

With that, she left the cave with Tang Wulin and Gu Yue…

…

Not long after, looking at the dark and wide passage ahead that was so dim one could not see their own fingers, Xu Sheng said lightly, "So this is the Abyssal Passage? It doesn't seem to have that great of a suppression effect as said!"

Jiang Qiyue beside her explained, "That's because we're currently at the periphery of the Abyssal Passage, the A-level Abyssal Passage is at least five to ten times larger than the Level C one!"

"It's only when you reach deeper that the suppression effect on Soul Masters becomes very evident! But we'd better prepare for an escape in advance!"

Xu Sheng gently responded, "Okay! July, you stay behind me."

Hearing this, Jiang Qiyue's heart suddenly warmed, and she felt a great sense of security…
