Chapter 234 Tidal Body Refinement: The Astounding Martial Physique of Peach Blossom Spring Students
"Congratulations on completing the first test. You are all truly outstanding, and your future achievements will be no less than mine. Poseidon Island may well usher in its most prosperous era in history."

"Your second test is the Tidal Body Refinement. Follow me."

After everyone finished the first test and rested for a while, they checked the content of their second test and found that the content of their second test was the same, named Tidal Body Refinement.

Poseidon's voice came faintly from the temple of Poseidon. In the blink of an eye, her figure had already swept through the air and landed on a mountain peak several hundred meters high in front of her.

This mountain is entirely formed of rock, barren of any vegetation, and pitch black. Its outer edge appears as if a dent has been carved out by a divine hand, allowing the surging seawater to pour in and continuously create incredibly powerful waves that crash against it.

"This is the Angry Wave Desolation? It is indeed very special. It is said that this depression was eroded by seawater over the years. The teacher was right. Water that usually looks soft and harmless can also unleash terrifying power."

"The sea breaks through the dead end, the flowing water shatters the rocks, and the waves subdue the shipwreck. This raging, desperate situation sounds very fitting for me. Hmph, then, I'll catch up with my sister right here at this second test!"

Shuiyue stood on the mountain peak, glanced at the magnificent and vast power of nature below, and showed no fear.

Shui Bing'er simply smiled faintly:
"However, I will do my best, after all, this is related to the teacher's reward, and I won't hold back even if it's Yue'er."

“That’s right, Yue’er. Although your ultimate skill and martial soul are most compatible with the power of the ocean, don’t forget that I, Qingbo, and Ruoshui also have water-type martial souls.”

Yu Hairou gently pinched Shuiyue'er's delicate nose and smiled.

"Come on, only the best performer in the assessment deserves to spray water for the teacher... no, I mean, only they can receive the teacher's first reward!"

Shuiyue'er struck a classic pose from the Flowing Water Fist, her entire being moving with perfect naturalness.

"You actually knew this was the Fury Wave Forbidden Zone?"

"It seems your teacher is truly remarkable. He must have already introduced you to the situation of Seagod Island before you even arrived. However, apart from myself and the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo and other guardian soul masters, very few people on the continent know about this. I wonder who your teacher is?"

Upon hearing Shuiyue'er and the others mention their teacher, Poseidon's eyes lit up with curiosity, and he couldn't help but ask.

Shuiyue'er proudly said:

"High Priest, I won't tell you, lest you have any improper thoughts... But never mind, anyway, the teacher isn't here... Well, then I'll reluctantly tell you, High Priest. Our teacher is the best and most powerful person in the world. The reason we have such potential now is actually because of the teacher's good teaching. Otherwise, we wouldn't even have the opportunity to come to Seagod Island for training."

"His name is Su Ran, the Peach Blossom Immortal Master. Remember him, he's the most perfect man~"

As they spoke, Shuiyue and the others were also influenced by the story and couldn't help but miss their teacher, their expressions becoming somewhat somber.

It's been almost a year since they arrived at Poseidon Island. Time flies! I wonder how the teacher is doing now? Is he waiting for them outside? Has he been paying attention to them?

Every time I try to communicate with the teacher using the sound transmission conch, the teacher rarely responds. I seriously suspect that the teacher has been kidnapped by that purple pearl.

Hmm, Purple Pearl, that name sounds shady. It's said that pearls are made from the tenderest flesh of a clam over many years, and they even turn purple from the polishing. That's terrifying! With Bibi Dong's case of intercepting the pearl halfway through, they are really worried!
Teacher, we may not respect ourselves, but you must! Don't let those scoundrels get away with it! You need to protect yourself!

Thinking of this, Dugu Yan and Shui Bing'er couldn't help but try to get back to the topic:

"High Priest, begin the second test for us. We need to pass the Sea God's test as soon as possible."

"Ok."

Poseidon took a deep look at the nine students, feeling that something was amiss. Yes, it seemed... their feelings for their teacher went beyond mere affection between elders and juniors; there seemed to be something more—love? As a seasoned woman who had managed Poseidon Island for nearly a century, she could vaguely sense the emotions of these children.

The most perfect man? The best and most powerful? Could this Peach Blossom Teacher named Su Ran, whom they were talking about, be even more charming than Tang Chen and Lord Sea God? That seems impossible.

With a question in mind, Poseidon took a deep breath and slowly raised her hands. An astonishing array of eight black and one red spirit rings appeared on her body, and a pale blue light quickly spread to every part of the raging sea, suppressing the surging waves below.

The next moment, with a loud bang, ten gray pillars slowly rose up, arranged irregularly.

When the ten gray pillars rose from the sea, Tang San trembled and stared intently at them.

These gray pillars were actually made entirely of deep-sea sunken silver, which is the main material for making the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles. The reason why the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles he made before were not powerful enough was largely due to the lack of silver mother material from deep-sea sunken silver.

In contrast, Meng Yiran was much calmer. Although the deep-sea sunken silver was precious, it was not even one-tenth the value of the materials used to make the Soul-Splitting Sky-Shattering Gun and the Hundred-Mile Soul-Piercing Sniper taught by her teacher.

“Your second trial is different from mine back then. My second trial involved traversing the circular sea area, and I didn’t arrive at the Tidal Body Refinement until my third trial. But your second trial is right here. I think this is because your first trial was at a much higher altitude. Similarly, the intensity you will have to endure here will exceed that of other people’s Tidal Body Refinement.”

Poseidon began by saying:
"Top-level eighth-rank examinees need to train on the Silver Pillar for at least fourteen hours a day. Top-level seventh-rank examinees need to train on the Silver Pillar for at least ten hours a day."

"The sixth level of the Black-level test requires being bound to the Sunken Silver Pillar for eight hours every day to withstand the tidal impact, and this is considered to be completed after 365 days."

"If you encounter any danger during the Tidal Body Refinement process, you can call for help at any time. I will always be there for you."

Poseidon then glanced at Tang San and explained the content of his assessment.

Hearing this, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief. Eight hours, only two hours less than Qiu Ruoshui and the others, the difference wasn't significant. This meant he still had a chance to surpass them. So Tang San cupped his hands and said:
"High Priestess of the Sea God, I wish to have the same opportunity as them to increase my time to ten hours a day. If I can persevere, I can gradually increase it further. Is that possible?"

"Tang San, I think you've misunderstood."

Unexpectedly, Poseidon smiled and explained:
“Your body is bound and tempered. I need to tie you to the Silver Pillar. You only need to withstand the impact of the waves to temper your body.”

"But their training is different from the other two. They will not be bound by any restrictions and will have to fight against the tides and waves until they can stand firm in those waves on their own. Within 365 days, at the height of the tide, they must stand firmly on the Silver Pillar for 24 hours and 18 hours without being washed away by the waves. Only then can they be considered to have completed the test."

"what?!"

Tang San was also a martial artist and had trained with Tang Hao under the waterfall. He understood that the two tests Poseidon mentioned were not even in the same league.

One is to temper the body by riding the waves, and the other is to fight against the tides. It is obvious which is superior!
"I admire your perseverance and persistence. However, Tang San, there are some things that perseverance cannot make up for."

"The Sea God has determined that they possess formidable physical strength, and therefore the test he has given them is unlike anything I have ever seen before. If you insist on undergoing the same test as them, I think you might die in the raging waves. I do not recommend that you do so, really."

Poseidon said a few more words to Tang San, but those words were like a knife, stabbing deeply into Tang San's heart.

puff--

Tang San felt a pain in his chest and took two steps back.
I thought I had a chance to compete, but I didn't expect that we weren't even in the same league. This is... really hurtful!
