Douluo Dragon King: Martial Soul Spring and Autumn Cicada, Lord of Time

Chapter 119 The Cicada Emerges in Spring and Autumn, Startling Old Master Cai

Seeing this scene, Shen Yi was somewhat shocked.

Originally, the pass rate for this stage of the test was extremely low.

In fact, barring unforeseen circumstances, this method can often eliminate half of the candidates.

Moreover, even among those candidates who passed...

The passing rate is often less than one-third.

This result is not surprising.

After all, the students who come here to take the exam are essentially still children, many of whom are academics and have never experienced a life-or-death test.

Faced with such a menacing knife and such a tight timeframe, it's easy to back down without sufficient courage, adaptability, and strength.

However, thanks to Zhao Tao's soul skill, the students of Class Zero passed this test with ease, as if cutting melons and vegetables.

Furthermore, their completion time broke the best record since the test was established.

Monster, a real monster!

At this moment, Shen Yi's gaze towards Zhao Tao held a newfound respect!

After three years, I can no longer understand this mysterious young man!

"In the third round, all five of you got full marks."

"Take a half-hour break and prepare for the next test."

"Try to keep your emotions calm," Shen Yi instructed.

Half an hour passed quickly.

After resting and adjusting, the five students of Class Zero, led by Shen Yi, set off again in a grand procession.

After climbing hundreds of steps, they finally arrived at the second floor of the main teaching building.

The walls and ceiling of this floor are all white, with golden patterns and various complex soul-guiding arrays engraved on them, making it dazzling to look at.

"The fourth stage tests your special skills."

"Now, you need to figure out your strongest point and then show it."

"Now, I'll go and invite the examiners over."

After giving a few words of advice to the students in Class Zero, Shen Yi left.

A few minutes later, Shen Yi returned with the three of them.

The leader was an elderly woman with white hair, and beside her were two middle-aged men.

"I am the chief examiner for this round, Mr. Cai. You may begin."

"Hmm... As for the order, let's start from the lowest to the highest cultivation level."

Looking at the five students from Class Zero in front of him, Old Cai chuckled and then gave instructions.

"Yes, Mr. Cai."

Upon hearing the words in front of him, Tang Wulin, whose cultivation level was the lowest, stepped forward and displayed his Golden Dragon Claw.

"This is... the bloodline of the Golden Dragon!?"

"Excellent, very good! You get full marks for this level!"

Feeling the power of Tang Wulin's bloodline, Elder Cai couldn't help but exclaim.

However, she quickly controlled her surprise, nodded in satisfaction, and said slowly.

Upon hearing Elder Cai's words, Shen Yi, who was standing to the side, opened his mouth slightly, revealing a look of shock.

You must know that the examiner in front of you, Elder Cai, is an unfathomable figure—the elder of the Sea God Pavilion, the dean of the outer academy, a three-word battle armor master, and a titled Douluo powerhouse!

Both her strength and her knowledge are terrifying.

To silence such a powerful figure is an absolute achievement...

What secret does Tang Wulin, who seems insignificant and is even the worst in Class Zero, have?

"Thank you, Mr. Cai!"

Upon hearing Elder Cai's words, Tang Wulin's face lit up with joy. He bowed to Elder Cai before stepping down.

Next up was Xu Xiaoyan.

Clearly, what she was most proud of was the absolute validity of the Night Star Wheel Ice Staff.

However, it was daytime, so a demonstration was not possible. Therefore, Xu Xiaoyan explained while demonstrating her martial spirit.

"Oh, Star Wheel Ice Staff, you're from the Xu family. What you want to demonstrate is a truly reliable astrological soul skill, right?"

"I know your background. I'll give you seven points for this round. After all, your strengths do have flaws, so you can't get a high score." Looking at Xu Xiaoyan in front of him, Elder Cai revealed the origin of her martial spirit in one sentence and gave her a good score.

Next up was Xie Xie.

His special skills were his twin martial souls and his third soul skill—Light Dragon Clone/Shadow Dragon Clone.

Moreover, through the twin martial souls, he even summoned a total of six clones!

"Same type of twin martial souls, very good, but the mental strength is a bit weak."

"In addition, you are still a bit too eager for quick results. The six clones are too homogeneous and cannot be controlled individually."

Overall, it's not bad. You meet the requirements for entering the school, so I'd give you a 7 out of 10.

Looking at Xie Xie's presentation, Mr. Cai nodded slightly.

Upon hearing Mr. Cai's comments, Xie Xie bowed respectfully in agreement.

After Xie Xie, it was Gu Yue's turn.

What she demonstrated was the power of elemental fusion, and moreover, the simultaneous fusion of all four elements!

"Good, good, very good!"

Looking at the flower formed by the fusion of the four elements in front of Gu Yue, Old Cai stood up excitedly!

"Perfect score, absolutely perfect score!"

"Child, what's your name?"

Looking at the ancient moon in front of him, Old Cai smiled brightly and asked questions.

"Mr. Cai, my name is Gu Yue."

With a slight smile, Gu Yue replied.

In this life, without so many melodramatic plot twists, Gu Yue naturally wouldn't hold a grudge against Cai Laoqu.

"Well, Gu Yue, I think you don't need to take the subsequent exams. Just go straight to the inner academy."

"Also, I have high hopes for you. Would you like to become my disciple?"

After he finished speaking, a crescent moon quietly appeared behind Elder Cai, and nine soul rings—four purple, four black, and one red—appeared.

Seeing this, Tang Wulin and the others all gaped in astonishment.

The unassuming old woman in front of me is actually a legendary, high-ranking Title Douluo powerhouse!

As expected of Shrek Academy!

"Senior, thank you for your kindness, but I have already become a disciple of the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo, so I'm afraid I can no longer be your disciple."

"In addition, I also hope to conduct the subsequent assessments together with my partners."

Upon hearing Elder Cai's words, Gu Yue shook her head and politely declined.

"Hiss... It's Tianfeng. Oh well, oh well, I'm just an old man, I can't beat her. We're destined to be apart!"

"As for the subsequent assessments, if you want to participate, then go ahead and participate."

Upon hearing Gu Yue's words, Elder Cai sat down, his tone filled with regret.

After Gu Yue, it was finally Zhao Tao's turn to give his presentation.

"Senior, what I wish to demonstrate is my martial spirit and soul skill. It is called the Spring and Autumn Cicada, and it can control the power of time!"

With a slight smile, Zhao Tao summoned his Spring and Autumn Cicada Martial Soul. Instantly, three purple and one black soul rings appeared on Zhao Tao's body.

"At such a young age, your soul power has reached level forty-seven, and you even possess a ten-thousand-year-old soul spirit. Young man, you are truly outstanding!"

Sensing the aura emanating from Zhao Tao, Elder Cai smiled and nodded.

However, just as she released her spiritual power to sense Zhao Tao's Spring and Autumn Cicada Martial Soul.

A look of shock reappeared on her face, and she stood up abruptly!
