Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

"What...is it?"

Hu Liena stood beside Gu Yi and pointed at the Shura Blood Sword in Gu Yi's hand, asking a question.

For some reason, even though it was the first time she had seen this longsword, she felt an extremely strong urge to possess it!

If she hadn't still retained some rationality, she might have already taken action!

"This is the Asura Blood Sword, a legendary weapon left behind by the Asura God. It contains the Asura God's divine power. If one can pass the divine test, one can become a god at level 100!"

"However, before that, you still have to go to the City of Slaughter to undergo the divine test, otherwise, it will be useless."

Gu Yi didn't hide anything and generously explained the function of the Asura Blood Sword.

This news really startled Hu Liena, and her gaze toward the Asura Blood Sword became even more intense.

"You just told me this kind of thing like this... this kind of thing."

Aren't you afraid I might have bad intentions towards you?

Hu Liena inquired.

"Don't worry, after all this time we've known each other, I still understand you."

"Besides, even if I have very little soul power left, you are definitely no match for me."

Gu Yi waved his hand casually and smiled.

But the very next second after he spoke, a sharp pain shot through his entire body from his right foot.

Hu Liena was glaring at him angrily, and then stomped on his foot with her right foot, as if venting her anger.

"Next time! Just say the first half of the sentence! Humph!"

Hu Liena snorted coldly and turned her head to the side, feeling both angry and somewhat happy.

The fact that Gu Yi could say such things meant that he considered himself one of their own.

"Phew~ Okay, okay, stop fooling around, let me rest for a bit."

"By the way, you should also send another message to Elder Ju and ask him to change his location to pick us up."

After saying that, Gu Yi directly stuck the Asura Blood Sword aside, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

Seeing this, Hu Liena did as Gu Yi said and stayed by his side.

The escape just now only used up Gu Yi's soul power, so she didn't consume any energy and therefore didn't need to rest.

She stood there, watching Gu Yi and observing his expression.

Suddenly, Hu Liena noticed a red light shining on Gu Yi's forehead, followed by a familiar totem slowly appearing.

"What...what's going on?"

Hu Liena frowned, feeling worried but not daring to make any rash moves.

As for Gu Yi, the red light he just saw was created by himself. He was using his soul power to communicate with the divine test mark left in his body, wanting to know what the first test was.

Just as the mark was activated, a deep voice appeared in Gu Yi's mind.

"The first of the Nine Trials of Asura: [Judgment] According to Asura..."

Guided by the light, they slew ten evildoers who deserved to be judged.

"Assessment period: one month. Successful assessment will reward you with a divinely bestowed soul ring, increase your soul power by one level, and increase your affinity with the Asura God by 5%. Failure to assess will result in death."

As the voice faded, the red light on Gu Yi's forehead also disappeared, but the strange totem remained.

"Phew~ This is a death sentence right from the start, they really don't leave anyone a way out."

Gu Yi slowly opened his eyes and smiled bitterly with a helpless expression.

"The punishment of death? What punishment of death? What are you talking about, Gu Yi?"

Seeing Gu Yi open his eyes again and utter nonsensical words, Hu Lina was immediately puzzled.

"It's nothing, it's just that if I had failed the divine test I just took, I would have died."

Gu Yi said it very casually, as if he didn't care at all.

"Ok!"

"Failure means death? Then you..."

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena's eyes widened in surprise.

Isn't this divine test a bit too terrifying?

"It's alright, it shouldn't be too difficult. Besides, I've already found a target, shall we go check it out together?"

Gu Yi replied confidently, and as he spoke, he looked at a small town at the foot of the mountain.

For some reason, Gu Yi could clearly see a beam of blood-red light shooting into the sky, which was extremely dazzling.

"Target? What target?"

Hearing Gu Yi's words, Hu Liena was immediately dumbfounded, unable to understand what Gu Yi was saying at all.

"Haha~"

Gu Yi didn't explain, but directly spread his bone wings, took to the air, and extended his right hand to Hu Liena.

Seeing this, Gu Yi disregarded his doubts and grabbed Gu Yi's right hand, leading him straight into the town.

They landed precisely in a Soul Master Academy, which appeared to be just a junior Soul Master Academy.

The facilities here look very basic. At a glance, even the classrooms are dilapidated, and a group of children are standing to attend class.

Gu Yi glanced at it but didn't pay much attention. He turned and walked towards the direction indicated by the red light.

Soon, he reached the door of the principal's office and kicked it open.

"Huh? Who are you? How dare you barge into my office!"

As soon as the door was kicked open, a fat middle-aged man pointed at Gu Yi and shouted insults.

Gu Yi ignored him and directly summoned his Bone Dragon Martial Soul.

"Second Soul Skill, Penetrating Bone Needle!"

In an instant, dozens of slender bone needles appeared around Gu Yi and then suddenly attacked the middle-aged man.

"Hun... Soul Saint!"

The middle-aged man could only gasp in surprise before the bone spur pierced through him, killing him instantly.

"Is it really that simple?"

Gu Yi frowned. He had seen the man trying to activate his martial soul earlier, and he realized that the man was only a level 20-something Great Soul Master.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but have many doubts. Was the Asura God Trial too easy?

"Gu Yi, what... are you doing?"

Hu Liena frowned deeply. She couldn't understand why Gu Yi would come all the way here to kill a Great Soul Master.

"To complete the divine test, my first test is to kill ten evil people who deserve to be judged."

"That was the first one."

Gu Yi didn't hide anything and told him directly.

"I see, ten villains, I understand."

"Then you'll have to go find the remaining nine villains next, won't you?"

"Then how will you come back with us later?"

Hu Liena nodded as if she understood, and then asked again.

"Then why not just kill them all first and then go back? Besides, I'm not sure if I'll be able to go back before I finish the divine test."

"After all, the content of the divine test will determine my destination, so you may have to go back first."

Now that Gu Yi has begun the Divine Trial, he naturally needs to put everything else aside and focus on completing the Trial. This is the most important thing!

Chapter 168 Bibi Dong's Doubts

"Should we go back after we've killed them all?"

"Do you want us to help you?"

"With Elder Ju around, things should be much easier for you, right?"

Hu Liena still wanted to return to the Spirit Hall with Gu Yi. After all, it was thanks to Gu Yi that she was able to complete the task assigned by her teacher in such a short time.

"That's fine. Let's discuss this matter after Elder Ju arrives."

Gu Yi didn't care. As long as he could complete the divine test, it didn't matter whether he needed help or not.

"Let's leave here first. I see more and more people are moving this way."

Hu Liena glanced towards the door and gave a reminder.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yi nodded and led Hu Liena back to where they had initially rested.

The two rested for a while when a pale yellow light flew over from the horizon; it was Juhua Guan, who had received the signal.

"How did you get here?"

"This place is incredibly far from the City of Slaughter."

He had arrived at Chrysanthemum Pass much earlier, but the place he reached was the same place where Gu Yi had first sent the signal.

“Something happened along the way, but it’s not important. Now that you’re here, let’s go.”

Seeing that they had arrived at Chrysanthemum Pass, Gu Yi didn't want to delay any longer and got up to head back.

"Well, it's good to go back soon. His Holiness the Pope has something to discuss with you."

Juhua Guan nodded and responded.

"You need something from me? What is it?"

Gu Yi was puzzled. He hadn't even gone back yet, and something had already happened to him?

"Uh... this matter is confidential, so I can't say too much. When you get back, His Holiness the Pope will tell you in person."
