Chapter 122 Crossing, Ring Sea!
Chapter 122 Crossing, Ring Sea!
Everyone looked in the direction the voice indicated, and sure enough, there were stone steps extending downward from the front of the Poseidon Temple. Under the glow of the setting sun, the white stone steps reflected the light, like a jade belt lightly draped over the Poseidon Mountain.
"The test time is unlimited. The more steps you climb, the higher your score will be. Each of you has a button on your left hand that is similar to the escape device of the Spirit Ascension Platform. You can exit by pressing the button. You will also exit if you lose consciousness. Please allocate your energy reasonably. Please note that each person has only one test opportunity. If you fall from the stairs for any reason, you will be teleported back. The test begins now."
In fact, according to Shrek Academy's original idea, the Poseidon assessment should have simulated a Poseidon as a commentator and guide. Since the candidates were to pursue excitement and imitate Tang San's ancestor, then they should carry it out to the end.
However, this move was strongly opposed by the Poseidon family and was shelved.
After the sound stopped, the examinees all looked towards the direction of Poseidon Mountain. Directly in front of Poseidon Temple, stone steps extended downward. Under the sunlight, the white stone steps reflected light, just like a jade belt lightly draped over Poseidon Mountain.
Most of the candidates were still immersed in the joy of being able to immerse themselves in Tang San's experience. They could not speak or walk, and kept looking around.
Ignoring the examinees, Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena waved their dragon wings, soared into the air, and headed straight for the ring-shaped sea.
The width of the circular sea is about two hundred meters, and the waves in the sea are not big. It is called a sea, but it is actually a circular lake. Of course, the water here is still sea water. I just don’t know how to enter the island.
The mere sea water naturally could not stop Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena's footsteps. They lightly tapped the ground with their toes, spread their dragon wings, and flew up easily.
Just as the two were about to fly directly to the Sea God Island, Gu Yuena's face changed and she said, "Be careful."
As soon as Gu Yuena finished speaking, a huge black shadow broke out of the water, aiming directly at Qiangu Huangyu.
It was a huge sawtooth shark, about five meters long, with the sawtooth on the front like a sharp spear, accounting for more than one-third of its body length. After it suddenly jumped out of the water, its whole body was shining with a layer of blue light, and it accelerated again, rushing towards Qiangu Huangyu like a blue lightning.
Qiangu Huangyu was fearless. A dark purple vine of Thundering Hell Vine appeared in Qiangu Huangyu's hand, and then he swung it towards the direction of the sawtooth shark.
The Thundering Hell Vine was wrapped with golden lightning, and it hit the sawtooth shark mercilessly. Qiangu Huangyu shook his wrist and controlled the Thundering Hell Vine to wrap around the sawtooth shark.
Accompanied by a flash of thunder, the lightning that suddenly rose from the Thunder Hell Vine electrocuted the sawtooth shark until it was charred black. If you smell it carefully, there is a faint fragrance.
"What's going on?" Gu Yuena asked unhappily. The test was to climb stairs, and no one said that there were soul beasts in the circular sea that would attack them!
"The level of a ten-year soul beast." Qiangu Huangyu made a silent judgment.
Gu Yuena spread her spiritual power and carefully felt the breath in the ring-shaped sea. She said, "This test is about climbing stairs, not fighting soul beasts. I can sense that there are many soul beasts underwater, but the strongest one should only be a hundred years old."
"Although they are weak, it would be too troublesome if they jumped out one by one."
After saying that, Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena retreated back to the shore together. The other candidates discovered the emergency and rushed over to check it out.
"What's going on?" Guan Yue asked in surprise. He also saw the sawtooth shark attacking Qiangu Huangyu.
Qiangu Huangyu said calmly, "It's nothing. There are a few soul beasts in the sea that are blocking us from passing. Let me take care of it."
After saying that, Qiangu Huangyu no longer paid attention to the others, walked to the shore alone, squatted down, raised his right arm, immersed his right hand in the sea water, and imitated the tone of a certain navy admiral: "Ice age"
The next moment, as if it was the wrath of Thor, the entire ring-shaped sea was completely swallowed up by the torrent of thunder and lightning in an instant, turning into a roaring ocean of thunder and lightning.
The golden thunder, like an enraged golden dragon, danced wildly in the ocean, wantonly venting its pride and madness.
Looking far away, the Ring Sea is no longer the tranquil waters, but a purgatory of thunder and lightning shining with golden light.
Water conducts electricity, so naturally the sea soul beasts in the ocean could not be safe and sound. Under the lightning of Qiangu Phoenix Feather, they were all electrocuted to a state of being burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
Watching the blackened sea soul beasts that were electrocuted float to the surface and faint, there were nearly a hundred of them. Qiangu Huangyu stood up and said calmly, "Shrek really prepared a big gift for us! But it's all over."
The other candidates stared at the scene in amazement and couldn't help swallowing their saliva. They looked at Qiangu Huangyu as if they were looking at a monster.
Soul beasts that were no more than a hundred years old naturally posed no threat to them, but being able to defeat nearly a hundred soul beasts at once was something they absolutely could not do.
In the monitoring room, Ma Lao and Tai Po'e were speechless as they watched Qiangu Huangyu kill all the sea soul beasts with one move.
In fact, only the most difficult tests will be obstructed by sea soul beasts, and most soul masters at this age cannot fly yet and must swim. In the sea water, the strength of the sea soul beasts will be greatly enhanced, and it will be difficult for a single soul master to resist, so this level is also testing the cooperation between the candidates.
But no one expected that so many sea soul beasts that were originally used to test the cooperation of the soul masters were cleared out by Qiangu Huangyu alone!
"The most difficult test originally had a hidden bonus point, which was to pass it without harming the sea soul beast. It seems that it is useless now." Old Ma stroked his gray beard and said with a smile.
There was no way to avoid harming them. All the sea soul beasts were harmed by Qiangu Huangyu alone, and no one else could harm them even if they wanted to.
In fact, Mr. Ma did not blame Qiangu Huangyu for killing all the sea soul beasts. In his opinion, most of the candidates did not even have the strength to cross the ring sea. If Qiangu Huangyu had not intervened, they would have been eliminated before they even landed on the Sea God Island.
What's more, as an entrance examination for an external college, climbing the Poseidon Stairs shouldn't be that difficult.
Tai Po'e sneered and said, "The real test of the highest difficulty is not here. The moment they climb the Sea God Stairs, they will understand what is waiting for them ahead."
This time, without the obstruction of the sea soul beast, Qiangu Huangyu and Gu Yuena reached the other side easily.
Just as Qiangu Huangyu was about to start climbing, Gu Yuena stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, I feel like there's something strange going on."
Qiangu Huangyu was naturally extremely confident in Gu Yuena's perception, so he sat down and began to meditate to recover from the previous consumption, while waiting for other candidates to swim over.
