He didn’t understand why his master suddenly said this, and his mind was full of questions, but he knew that there must be a deep meaning behind his master’s actions.

“Your acceptance of the Seagod’s inheritance will not affect my inheritance. Two opportunities fall on you, why not take them?” Jiang Han saw Tang San’s confusion and added. He understood Tang San’s concerns, so he explained it in time so that his apprentice could rest assured to grasp the possible opportunities.

Hearing this, Tang San showed a look of delight and nodded towards Jiang Han. He was full of expectations for future opportunities, and was grateful to his master for thinking of him and giving him such clear guidance at a critical moment.

“All seven of you, come here.” Poseidon waved at Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai and the other seven. Although his movements were simple, they carried an unquestionable majesty, as if he was calling for hope for the future and preparing to give them a special test.

“Master, we…” Dai Mubai and the other seven looked at Tang San, waiting for his decision. They were both excited and nervous, full of curiosity and worry about the upcoming unknown, so they subconsciously looked at Tang San, hoping to get some guidance from him.

“Go ahead, I brought you here for this. This is your opportunity.” Jiang Han waved to the seven disciples. His tone was relaxed, encouraging them to bravely meet the challenge and seize this rare opportunity.

Arriving in front of Poseidon, Tang San, Dai Mubai and the other seven stood side by side. Their postures were straight, their eyes were filled with determination and expectation, ready to face the upcoming divine test.

The next moment, under everyone’s gaze, Poseidon’s ten golden soul rings lit up at the same time. The brilliant soul rings shone brightly, illuminating everything around them, as if announcing the start of a sacred ceremony.

“Each of the seven tests of Poseidon is tailor-made for you. Every time you pass a test, you will receive a reward from God.” Poseidon, the god of the sea, pointed his index finger at Dai Mubai, and a golden trident mark slowly emerged between his brows, while seven blue halos lit up on his head. His voice was solemn and serious, and he introduced the rules of the test in detail, giving Dai Mubai and others a preliminary understanding of the test they would face next.

“A food-type auxiliary soul master with full innate soul power is really rare. Like him, you are also undergoing the seven tests of the Sea God. Each test is tailored for you. I hope you can pass them all.” Poseidon’s index finger fell on Oscar, who also had seven blue halos above his head. He appreciated Oscar’s talent and also had high hopes for him, hoping that he could show his strength in the God Test and pass each test smoothly.

“You are also one of the Seven Trials of Poseidon.”

“It’s also the Seven Tests of Poseidon.”

……

Poseidon pointed at Dai Mubai, Oscar and the other six people in turn. When he finally pointed at Tang San’s brow, his slightly narrowed eyes suddenly widened.

Then, he turned his head to look at Jiang Han not far away, and remembered what the other party had said in the previous battle. A look of surprise appeared in his golden eyes.

Among the other party’s seven disciples, there was actually one who was a perfect match for his inheritance! He was surprised and somewhat relieved. He was surprised at Jiang Han’s foresight and relieved that he had finally found a person who was so compatible with his inheritance. This was undoubtedly a very important thing for his inheritance.

Poseidon could vaguely sense that the little guy in front of him had a seed in his body that resonated with the power of the sea, even though the seed in his body was somewhat repelling the power of the sea. But he knew that this was only a temporary situation. Once the latent power was stimulated and grew, combined with the power of the sea, it would burst out with an incomparable terrifying energy, and its power would definitely be beyond imagination.

“Child, follow me!”

Poseidon’s voice suddenly rang in Tang San’s ears, with unquestionable majesty. Before Tang San could react, ripples appeared in the void around him, and the figure disappeared with Poseidon in an instant. This sudden change caught everyone around him off guard, and they could only watch Tang San being taken away, their hearts full of worry and curiosity.

A quarter of an hour later.

“Xiao San, are you okay? Where did Poseidon take you?” Tang San had just reappeared on the Poseidon stage with Poseidon when he was surrounded by Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai and others. Their eyes were filled with concern, and they were eager to know what Tang San had experienced in the past quarter of an hour and whether he had been hurt.

“It’s okay, I’m fine.” Tang San signaled everyone not to worry, and then threw a ‘you know’ look at Jiang Han. At this moment, he finally understood why his master explained to him about the Thirteen Golden Halberds while fighting in the previous battle. It seemed that the other party knew from the beginning that he would become the successor of the Sea God. He admired and appreciated his master’s foresight, and looked forward to the next God Test even more.

“With your current cultivation, you can try the first test!” Poseidon’s majestic voice rang in the ears of Dai Mubai, Tang San and the other seven. Her voice was like a warning bell, reminding everyone that the test was coming, and everyone’s nerves were instantly tense.

500 miles from Poseidon Island, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King roared unwillingly. The situation he imagined did not happen, and even the two auras that made him palpitate were still there. He was filled with resentment and helplessness. He had originally hoped that the two strong men would both suffer losses so that he could benefit from it. But now that his hope was dashed, he could only vent his dissatisfaction on the bottom of the sea. The roar echoed in the deep sea, but it could not change the established facts.

“Lord Poseidon, is this our first test of the Light of Poseidon?” Looking at the golden staircase hanging in the air, Dai Mubai looked at Poseidon with some uncertainty. The golden staircase exuded a mysterious and majestic atmosphere, as if it hid endless mysteries, which made people feel both awed and curious.

“That’s right. The intensity of the light of Poseidon is different for different people. When you successfully step onto the last step, the first test is completed.” Poseidon’s majestic voice sounded. His words were concise and clear, but they made everyone have a clearer understanding of the difficulty of this first test. They understood that this seemingly simple step was actually a difficult challenge.

Dai Mubai, Oscar and the other seven had similar suspended steps in front of them. Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong and Dai Mubai had golden steps, but the first five had 99 steps, while Dai Mubai had 108. The steps went up layer by layer, as if leading to an unknown mysterious realm, and each layer exuded an aura that people dared not underestimate.

As for Tang San, not only is the color of his steps different from others, being black, but the number of his steps exceeds Dai Mubai’s 108 steps, twice as many as Oscar and others.

Level 198!
The black steps stood out among the many golden steps, as if symbolizing Tang San’s unique test, and also foreshadowing that he was about to face a more difficult challenge, which made people feel stressed. “Third brother, your difficulty seems to be much greater than mine.” Xiao Wu glanced at Tang San and said softly. There was a hint of worry in her tone. Although she was not completely sure about her own test, she couldn’t help but worry about Tang San when she saw the numerous and differently colored steps.

Tang San couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Maybe it’s because my spirit power has reached level 41.” He tried to use a relaxed tone to ease the slightly tense atmosphere, but he also knew in his heart that this first test was by no means easy and he had to go all out.

“Within two days, you must pass the first test of the Sea God! Those who fail will be expelled from the Tang Sect!” A calm voice that could not be refuted rang in the ears of Tang San and the other seven people. The person who said this was not the Sea God Poseidon, but Jiang Han. Although his voice was calm, it revealed an unquestionable determination, letting everyone understand the seriousness of this first test. Failure would lead to severe consequences.

“Disciple understands!” Tang San, Dai Mubai and the other seven responded at the same time, their eyes were extremely firm. They knew that this was a test from their master and a rare opportunity. They could not retreat no matter what. Even if there were many difficulties ahead, they had to try their best.

With clanging sounds, seven people climbed onto the first step at the same time.

As soon as they stepped onto the stairs, they immediately felt a solemn and majestic aura in the light around the stairs. It was as if some special energy was suppressing them, and they felt heavy in their hearts. It felt like carrying a heavy burden, and every step required a lot of effort, as if there was an invisible force preventing them from continuing to climb up.

“Walk.”

Dai Mubai and Tang San looked at each other, and took the lead in climbing up the stairs. Their eyes were full of determination, and they encouraged each other, wanting to break through this first level as soon as possible and show their strength and determination.

Bang, bang!

However, just when Dai Mubai and Tang San stepped onto the tenth step, two muffled sounds rang out. The sound was like a dull drumbeat, breaking the originally tense and silent atmosphere, foreshadowing something bad to happen.

puff!
The next moment, both of them vomited blood at the same time, their faces pale. The blood spurted out of their mouths and fell on the steps, which was particularly dazzling. The bodies of the two people seemed to be hit by some kind of tyrannical force. In an instant, they fell to the ground like a cannonball, smashing a deep pit. The huge impact force made the surrounding ground tremble and raised a cloud of dust, which showed the strength and ferocity of this force.

“There’s something strange about this Seagod’s Light. We can’t use our spirits. Be careful.” Tang San and Dai Mubai endured the pain and stumbled back to the steps. Their voices were a little weak, but they still reminded their companions to pay attention to the strangeness of the steps, hoping that everyone could avoid the same setbacks.

“Let me try.”

Ning Rongrong rolled up her sleeves, looking eager to try. There was a stubborn light in her eyes, unwilling to be frightened by difficulties. Even though she knew there were many dangers ahead, she still wanted to bravely challenge it. After she finished her excited voice, she stepped onto the stairs.

boom!
However, just after stepping onto the fifth step, Ning Rongrong’s frail body was knocked back. Her body was like a kite with a broken string, drawing an arc in the air before falling heavily to the ground with a painful groan.

Suddenly, miserable wails and pitiful cries floated in the air. The cries were heartbreaking, as if she had vented all the pain she had endured, and also made her companions around her even more worried.

“Rongrong, are you okay?” Oscar hurriedly ran to Ning Rongrong and helped her up. His eyes were full of worry, and he carefully checked whether Ning Rongrong was seriously injured. His concerned look showed his love for Ning Rongrong.

“Master, I…”

“If you choose to give up, there will be no place for you in the Tang Sect.”

Ning Rongrong stared at Jiang Han with tears in her eyes. Before she finished her pleading words, the other party’s indifferent voice had already sounded in her ears. Jiang Han’s expression was serious and did not waver at all. He hoped to inspire Ning Rongrong in this way, so that she could inspire stronger fighting spirit in difficult situations, instead of retreating easily.

“Disciple knows.”

Looking at Jiang Han’s extremely serious expression, Ning Rongrong took a deep breath as if she had made some difficult decision, gritted her teeth, wiped away the tears and blood from the corners of her mouth, and stepped hard onto the stairs. Her eyes were rekindled with fighting spirit, even though she knew she might be knocked away again, she was unwilling to give up easily and wanted to fight again.

boom!
But the ending did not change. When Ning Rongrong stepped onto the fifth step, the golden light covering the step burst out with a strong energy and knocked her out. Her body fell heavily to the ground again. Her painful expression made people feel particularly distressed, but she still gritted her teeth and did not cry out in pain.

Bang, bang, bang…

Not only Ning Rongrong, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu and others were also knocked away one after another, the difference was that some were on the sixth step, and some were on the seventh step. They tried again and again, and were ruthlessly repelled again and again. They were more or less injured, but the fighting spirit in their eyes did not diminish at all, instead, they became more courageous.

“Remember, practicing in adversity will help you grow the fastest. As long as you successfully pass the first test of the Sea God, the Sea God will grant you the most suitable 100,000-year spirit ring!” Jiang Han stood with his hands behind his back, watching his seven disciples get bruised one after another, without a trace of pity on his face. He knew that only after going through many hardships could his disciples truly grow, so he hardened his heart and used this huge temptation to motivate them to continue to persevere.

“One hundred thousand year soul ring!!”

Hearing Jiang Han’s words, Tang San and the other seven shouted excitedly at the same time, and each of them seemed to have forgotten the pain of their injuries. Especially Ning Rongrong, the grievance and resentment on her face had disappeared, and the whole person seemed to be full of energy. (End of this chapter)
