Douluo Dragon King: I, the wielder of the Holy Sword, will vanquish all evil.

Chapter 53, Second Examination
Now that Su Qiu has completed his ten-thousand-year ascension and returned to reunite with everyone, the next step is to lead them in their spiritual ascension.

It didn't take too much time.

After easily slaughtering the beasts, Su Qiu divided the spiritual energy released by the soul beasts into several streams, which then flowed towards the group.

Xie Xie, Wang Jinxi, and Zhang Yangzi couldn't help but cheer, then sat down cross-legged to absorb the nutrients.

As time passed, the light of their two century-old soul rings grew increasingly intense, seemingly poised to break through to a thousand years.

But it has never been possible to achieve that.

The meridians of the three people gradually swelled, as if they were about to burst.

Seeing this, Su Qiu flicked her fingertips, and a gentle stream of soul power flowed into their bodies, helping to stabilize their disordered auras.

They had subconsciously overlooked this point before, and now they can no longer bear the burden brought by the thousand-year soul ring.

However, Tang Wulin was able to withstand it, and his spirit rings began to transform into a thousand-year-old spirit ring.

As for Gu Yue, she only absorbed a little bit, just enough to make a token gesture, and then stopped moving.

Xu Xiaoyan stood timidly to the side, watching Su Qiu help Xie Xie and the others to regulate their meridians, her little hands tightly gripping the ice staff.

Su Qiu noticed her gaze and waved his hand, sending a wisp of spiritual energy over: "This is yours. Be careful, don't push yourself."

Xu Xiaoyan nodded in delight and quickly sat down cross-legged to absorb the energy. However, her cultivation was much weaker, and her cheeks flushed red in no time. She quickly stopped and whispered, "Thank you. I've reached my limit."

Su Qiu turned to look at Xu Xiaoyu, and seeing that she hesitated and dared not step forward, she said calmly, "They can't absorb the remaining spiritual energy either, so you should come too."

Xu Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward.

This trip to the Ascension Platform is almost complete.

Among the group, Su Qiu had surpassed ten thousand years of cultivation. Tang Wulin had surpassed one thousand years.

Others simply increased their time limit by a few years, without any major breakthroughs.

This made Xie Xie and the others beat their chests in frustration, their eyes red with envy and jealousy as they looked at Tang Wulin's thousand-year soul ring.

Na'er sat on the wings of the Sky-Splitting Crying Vulture, swinging her legs. Seeing the others' appearance, she pouted and said, "It's all because you're too weak."

With a casual wave of her hand, she summoned the excess spiritual energy left after everyone had absorbed it, easily absorbing the spiritual energy that Xie Xie and the others could no longer withstand. The purple color of her soul ring only deepened slightly, as easily as drinking water.

In fact, Na'er was already capable of withstanding a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, because she had condensed it herself. However, she claimed that it was provided by her spirit spirit, and even with the spirit spirit providing the spirit ring, her spiritual power was still insufficient.

So for now, we have to pretend for a thousand years.

Xie Xie and his companions were on the verge of tears, their joy turning to despair. They hated themselves for being so weak; despite having powerful backers, they couldn't handle the pressure.

The journey to ascension has ended.

Wu Changkong's gaze swept over the students in Class Zero before him, and he announced, "You have passed the first part of the final exam."

He never expected to use the Ascension Platform to test the students; it was just a resource benefit for Class Zero.

The real test is the second one.

"Get some rest today. The second exam starts tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, the previously smiling faces immediately changed. Xie Xie groaned miserably, "There's a second round?"

"I said from the beginning that there would be two final exams." Wu Changkong's voice was icy: "Let's go back to the academy first."

The second exam
Su Qiu seemed to be deep in thought; it must be the assessment at the Tang Sect.

The next day, Wu Changkong led the members of Class Zero on a soul-guided bus straight to the suburbs.

Xie Xie stepped forward again, asking curiously, "What's on the exam this time?"

Wu Changkong didn't say much, only that it was similar to the Ascension Platform.

After the bus arrived in the suburbs, the surrounding scenery became unfamiliar. Although there were still buildings, the area was noticeably more spacious.

Su Qiu looked closely and realized that even though he had been in Donghai City for so long, he had never actually been to the suburbs.

My daily life consists of running back and forth between the school, the Blacksmith Association, and the Spirit Pagoda.

Arrive at your destination.

After getting off the bus, the group followed the dancing sky into a park.

At a glance, all you can see are high-tech enterprises and large corporations in Donghai City, and even a mecha factory.

It took half an hour to walk to reach a garden within a garden.

Wu Changkong stepped forward and placed his right hand on the closed dark blue glass door. A bright blue light flashed.

The next moment, a teasing voice came from inside the door: "Oh, who do we have here! It's Donghai Xiao Changkong." Wu Changkong's already cold face tightened even more. Without saying a word, he said, "Open the door."

The other side had anticipated this; Wu Changkong was exactly that kind of person.

The glass doors then opened to both sides.

Upon entering the building, one finds a clean and tidy environment with white floors and dark blue walls.

In the empty room, a circular metal platform floated over, with several metal bracelets on it. Wu Changkong had the group put them on.

"This bracelet has an identification function, mainly used to prevent attacks from defense systems."

Before the group could even gasp in surprise.

Wu Changkong led them deeper into the area, passing through several glass doors and winding passages. Wu Changkong suddenly disappeared as he passed through one section.

"Space technology." Su Qiu couldn't help but think back. The technology tree of this era was really strange. Many basic areas were quite rudimentary, completely inferior to the modern era of his previous life.

But they were able to develop space technology.

It's probably due to some kind of magical soul power.

"Follow me."

At this moment, Wu Changkong's voice came from all directions.

Then everyone took a step and was enveloped by strange energy, instantly teleported to another space.

The room is filled with deep blue crystals, and the walls are made of silvery-white metal, creating a strange refraction of light.

Wu Changkong was in front of him, seemingly operating some device. A screen popped up, and he was rapidly typing on the keyboard.

Soon the screen responded.

"Identity confirmed, Little Changkong of the East China Sea"

"The test is of medium difficulty and involves seven participants."

"Countdown begins."

Wu Changkong then explained, "This is the final test. Do your best to defeat the Soul Master inside."

Before they could respond, several beams of blue light descended from the sky, and the group vanished instantly.

Su Qiu felt the same spatial teleportation sensation again. With the final, sudden feeling of weightlessness, he subconsciously adjusted his posture and landed steadily.

As far as the eye can see, the white earth stretches endlessly, with no sky in sight.

An electronic voice announced: "Welcome to the Hall of Heroes. First Trial: Intermediate Difficulty. Name: Su Qiu, Age: Nine. First Test: Endure for Thirty Seconds."

A young man appeared not far from Su Qiu.

He was tall and slender, with short, dark blue hair that looked neat and tidy.

He has a handsome face and gives people a refined feeling.

"Start!" the electronic voice announced.

In an instant, the boy shot forward, each step leaving behind layers of afterimages, while his arms transformed into dragon claws.

"Beibei?" Su Qiu guessed something when he saw the dragon claw.

And this footwork.
Without a trace of urgency, Su Qiu leisurely observed: "Is this the Ghost Shadow Step?"

Instantaneous light!

Just as he was about to be touched by the dragon's claws, Su Qiu vanished in a flash of light, unleashing the "Instant Light" movement technique.

Instead of retaliating, he engaged in a duel with the boy, their strange figures and illusory lights constantly intertwining on the white earth.

In fact, Su Qiu could have defeated his opponent in one move, but he didn't; he was constantly learning.

The Ghost Shadow Steps used by "Beibei" are not the original version from ten thousand years ago, but the latest version perfected by countless geniuses from the Tang Sect from ten thousand years ago to the present.

Su Wuyan's movement technique, created by a Super Douluo, was naturally inferior.

Therefore, Su Qiu was using pure numerical values ​​and strong combat intuition to explore the essence of his opponent's footwork.

　Chapter Two will be delayed.

　　I used my rest time today to watch the game.

　　Sigh, such a crushing defeat, I'm completely exhausted.
