Chapter 271 The Outrageous Assessment
The Shrek crew arrived at the Seahorse Pillar platform, each displaying their unique abilities.
The most outrageous ones are two women, Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing. One has a sixth soul skill of 100,000 years, and the other has two 100,000-year soul rings.
All seven Sacred Pillar Douluos knew that High Priestess Poseidon only possessed one 100,000-year spirit ring. According to the High Priestess, her ninth spirit ring was originally 90,000 years old, but after passing the High Priestess's final test, the age of all her spirit rings was increased by 10,000 years.
This is why she possessed a 100,000-year spirit ring, which is also why Poseidon instructed the Seven Holy Pillar Douluos to pursue the ultimate when absorbing divinely bestowed spirit rings.
If one of them is fortunate enough to be chosen by the Sea God to inherit Poseidon's position as High Priest, then the ninth soul ring can break through 100,000 years.
Back to reality,
Seahorse Douluo slowly walked to the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, his eyes shining with piety as he faced it. "One person, step forward."
The Shrek Seven Devils felt a chill run down their spines. They knew the real test was about to begin. And this was exactly what they had been waiting for. Wasn't the purpose of their trip to Seagod Island precisely to have the opportunity to improve their strength under pressure?
The first one to step forward was Dai Mubai, who stood a step behind Seahorse Douluo.
The Shrek members were also taken aback. Why did this guy become the first to stick his neck out?
Seahorse Douluo slowly raised his hands, his face full of piety. He brought his hands to his chest, palms facing each other with a half-foot gap between them. A faint blue light slowly appeared in the center of his palms. As the blue light gradually intensified, Dugu Yan suddenly had a special feeling that the blue light seemed familiar.
As the blue light filled the palms of Seahorse Douluo, it suddenly burst forth, enveloping the entire Seahorse Sacred Pillar in a clear blue glow. Immediately afterward, a flash of light appeared beneath the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, and a beam of blue light spread upwards along the patterns on the pillar. It reached the top in the blink of an eye.
Seahorse Douluo turned around to face Dai Mubai and pointed his right hand at Dai Mubai's body.
A blue beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Dai Mubai's body. Bathed in the beam of light, Dai Mubai was somewhat bewildered, clearly not feeling anything.
The color of the beam of light began to change, from blue to white, then quickly from white to yellow, and almost without pause, it transformed into purple. As the purple deepened, the rate of transformation slowed down.
The purple light pattern climbed to about one-third of the way up the Seahorse Pillar before pausing briefly, but soon it continued to spread upwards, this time at an even faster speed. In no time, the purple light pattern had covered the entire Seahorse Pillar.
The Seahorse Sacred Pillar behind Seahorse Douluo also turned completely purple.
Immediately afterwards, three beams of purple light shot out and appeared simultaneously in front of Dai Mubai, eventually leaving a purple mark on Dai Mubai's forehead.
"Hmm, very good. Purple-level three tests. This is the most cost-effective test on our Seagod Island. It is less difficult than the black-level test and has higher rewards than the yellow-level test."
Your soul power is at level 58. Passing all the tests will most likely allow you to break through to the Soul Saint level, laying a solid foundation for your future Soul Master path. You have the potential to become a Title Douluo.
Seahorse Douluo's tone was very easygoing. After all, in his view, the Black-level assessment was a punishment. There had been Black-level assessments over the years, but only seven of them had succeeded. The others had all died.
In the eyes of their Holy Pillar Douluo, the Purple-level assessment is the most cost-effective assessment.
Dai Mubai felt incredibly lucky to have received such a high-value assessment; he was determined to go far.
"Okay, next one!" Seahorse Douluo called out the next one.
Yu Tianxin stepped forward, and Seahorse Douluo unleashed the power of the Sacred Pillar upon her as usual. However, Yu Tianxin was very different from Dai Mubai!
At first, Yu Tianxin quickly turned yellow and then purple. The purple color continued to deepen, but this time the change was extremely fast!
Seeing the changes in the light on Yu Tianxin's body, Seahorse Douluo seemed somewhat astonished. Before long, the purple light had completely turned black, almost completely covering Yu Tianxin's body under the pillar of light.
On the Seahorse Sacred Pillar behind Seahorse Douluo, the patterns at the bottom also began to turn black and gradually climbed upwards. The black patterns climbed to about one-third of the way up the Seahorse Sacred Pillar before pausing, but soon they continued to spread upwards, this time at a faster speed. In a short while, the black patterns had covered the entire Seahorse Sacred Pillar.
Immediately afterwards, six beams of black light shot out and appeared simultaneously in front of Yu Tianxin, transforming into six square light screens. On each layer of the light screen, some special golden characters flickered.
The text on the first light screen shone brightly, while the text on the other five light screens was much dimmer.
Seahorse Douluo's lips twitched slightly, and he said with a wry smile, "Black-level sixth trial. Two more trials than I did back then. Lord Sea God, could this person be a sinner?"
The six beams of light converged, transforming into six points of black light that simultaneously entered Yu Tianxin's forehead, leaving a black six-pointed star on his forehead, its color as black as ink.
Yu Tianxin seemed to sense something. The confusion in her eyes was replaced by a deep look. Without saying a word, she quickly took a few steps back, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed her eyes, and frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
After Yu Tianxin finished, Yang Wu, Niu Dun, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, and Jiang Zhu all took a step forward, leaving only enough time for Seahorse Douluo to sigh.
The result was predictable! They all passed the Black Level assessment! Yang Wu and Niu Dun both passed the Black Level 6 assessment, while the substitute trio Huang Yuan and Jing Ling both passed the Black Level 4 assessment.
This made Seahorse Douluo question his existence, and Ma Hongjun noticed the doubt in Seahorse Douluo's expression.
Ma Hongjun couldn't help but ask, "Senior, what is the Black-Level Six Trials? Could you explain it to us?"
Seahorse Douluo nodded slowly, "The trials given by Lord Sea God are divided into levels. The difficulty of the trials varies depending on the level. Like the color of the spirit rings, from low to high, they are white-level trials, yellow-level trials, purple-level trials, black-level trials, and the top-level red trials."
The Sea God will conduct different tests on different people. The content of the tests, as shown on the light screen that just appeared, can only be known by the test-taker and the examiner. I am your examiner.
By passing different levels of assessments, one will gain corresponding authority on Seagod Island. The assessments will consider not only the assessor's strength but also their potential. This is the will of Lord Seagod.
"Among them, the white-level and yellow-level assessments will only have one test. Passing it means success. When it comes to the purple-level assessment, there are distinctions. The purple-level assessment will have one to three tests."
In other words, if the light emanating from the sacred pillar appears in front of you as a single beam, then you will have to undergo one purple-level test; if it is three beams, then you will have to pass all three tests to pass.
The more tests there are, the greater the difficulty will be. And the greater the authority gained upon passing them.
At the Black Level assessment, there will be at least four assessments and at most six. These are the six Black Level assessments I just mentioned.
The Sixth Test of Black Level is arguably the most difficult of the Black Level assessments. I can tell you that in the past hundred years, the Black Level assessment has been conducted 31 times, with 7 successful attempts and 24 failures.
I was one of the seven who passed through; those seven are now the guardians of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Poseidon Island.
Among the seven of us, only the guardian of the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar, Sea Dragon Douluo, has passed the Black-level Sixth Trial. He is also the strongest among us, and his soul power has now broken through level ninety-five.
Seahorse Douluo explained what the assessment was, giving those who were to be assessed a clear understanding of what to expect.
Dai Mubai thought to himself with a smirk. He was indeed the luckiest, having chosen the most cost-effective assessment. The Black-level assessment was life-threatening and not worth it.
Yu Tianxin and the others, including the three substitutes, were absolutely determined! Difficulties are necessary for growth, and this kind of tempering is an essential path to becoming strong!
