Everything happened too fast, in the blink of an eye.
The Seahorse Douluo's eyes caught it all, but his body couldn't keep up; he could only watch helplessly.
His Martial Soul true form was shattered, and he stumbled backward, spitting a mouthful of blood.
"Senior, I concede."
The Seahorse Douluo supported his chest with his right hand, breathing heavily.
"I lost…"
Honestly, the Seahorse Douluo's loss was quite unfair.
If Chen Qingling had shouted out her soul skill like ordinary people, he would have reacted earlier.
But alas, there's no "if" in this world.
Most importantly, Chen Qingling never had the habit of shouting her soul skills.
She never understood why ninety-nine percent of soul masters liked to announce their skills—was it so the opponent would know? To give the enemy a buffer?
She didn't understand, but she could comprehend it.
"Miss Qingling, your next opponent is the Sea Spear Douluo of the Sea Spear Saint Pillar, the closest to the Seahorse Saint Pillar."
"He is the strongest single-target burst among our seven; be careful."
Chen Qingling nodded slightly. "Thank you, senior, I understand."
Single-target burst?Even the strongest single-target burst shouldn't surpass the Hao Tian Hammer, right?
Chen Qingling didn't think much about it and walked toward the Sea Spear Saint Pillar.
Moments later, she arrived, exchanged polite words, and fought the Sea Spear Douluo.
Undoubtedly, she still won with one move.
With her Bright Butterfly Blade, she cut through the Sea Spear Douluo's golden spear, leaving him no chance to react.
Next, the remaining five Saint Pillar guardians were defeated one by one, not surviving a single round.
However, the Sea Illusion Saint Pillar almost broke Qingling's composure.
The moment she entered the Sea Illusion Saint Pillar, Chen Qingling fell into the Sea Illusion Douluo's illusions.
Reliving the nightmares her younger self had endured, experiencing friends and loved ones dying in her arms.
Even with all her strength, she couldn't protect those she wanted to.
The pain of it was something only Chen Qingling, having lived it, could understand.
Finally, she broke the illusion with the Light of the Butterfly God and defeated the Sea Illusion Douluo.
Poseci watched everything carefully:"Her strength is simply beyond comprehension."
"Yes. No wonder Haozi had no way to handle her and had to seek my help to resolve her," someone remarked.
Poseci frowned. "You Hao Tian Sect people lack ability but like bullying the weak."
Tang Chen chuckled awkwardly. "No, no, I didn't make a move against Chen Qingling."
"I'm an old man over a hundred years old. No matter how thick my skin, I wouldn't strike a teenager, right?"
"They shameless, I still have face."
"And this is a feud among juniors; they should resolve it. If they can't, their backing will have to intervene—how humiliating that would be."
Tang San: Great-grandfather, you've already chosen your own death!Filial strength is great, easy to strike!
"Let's hope so," Poseci said calmly, eyes on Chen Qingling in the distance.
"Unfortunately, her heart is not in the Sea God Examination; she only wants to use the rewards to improve herself."
"But taking so many benefits and not wanting to inherit the Sea God title… I wonder if the Sea God will be angry," Poseci said with slight concern.
At that moment, a piece of information flashed in Poseci's mind, making her pupils shrink slightly.
Tang Chen noticed her reaction and asked with concern: "Poseci, what's wrong?"
"The Sea God wants to modify the Sixth Trial."
"Originally, the Sixth Trial required sustaining one incense stick's worth of time under the seven Saint Pillar guardians, but due to Chen Qingling's strength, the Sea God wants to add difficulty."
"Add difficulty? How? You're not going to do it yourself, right?"
Poseci nodded heavily. "Tang Chen, you're right. She'll have to sustain under me for an incense stick's worth of time."
Tang Chen: ...
Well, well, well, my mouth is blessed, huh.
"Though the Sixth Trial's difficulty is increased, I don't think an incense stick's time is needed; a few rounds will decide the outcome."
"She can win in one move. Though I'm strong, I can't defeat the seven Saint Pillar guardians as easily as her."
"Just based on this, I already lose to her."
Tang Chen opened his mouth slightly: "This… can't… be true, right?"
"I admit Chen Qingling is strong, but this is your turf; you could unleash double your power."
"Dealing with a Soul Emperor should be easy!"
Poseci rolled her eyes at Tang Chen: "You talk a lot, don't you? Standing there talking with no risk."
"Her strength is obvious. She's not an ordinary Soul Emperor; she reaches the level of a Title Douluo. I can't predict her soul skills."
After all, someone who never shouts their skills—how could Poseci know what soul skill she is using?
If Poseci knew that in challenging the seven Saint Pillar guardians, Qingling wins with her first soul skill in one move, she could hardly imagine the expression on her face.
"Tang Chen, I'm leaving first."
"Go ahead."
Watching Poseci leave, Tang Chen felt deeply impressed.
The younger generation now is terrifyingly strong.
Elsewhere, Poseci transformed into a streak of light, instantly arriving beside Chen Qingling.
"High Priest… you're here?" Chen Qingling asked in surprise.
"Miss Qingling, your Sixth Trial is to sustain one incense stick under me," Poseci said, faint smile on her face.
"Ah?! The Sixth Trial is you?" Chen Qingling was slightly stunned.
"What? No confidence?"
"Given your strength, defeating me won't be difficult," Poseci said calmly.
"Ahaha…"
"High Priest… can I do it tomorrow instead?"
Poseci raised an eyebrow: "You could, but don't you want to do it now? You seem eager."
Chen Qingling laughed awkwardly, scratching her nose.
"Well…"
"I've done the trials all day. I want to break Sea God Island's record."
"Besides, after a full day, it's quite tiring."
Though she said that, she really wanted to check on Zhu Qing's progress.
After all, Zhu Qing's strength is far below hers.
Poseci, seeing Chen Qingling slightly nervous and avoiding eye contact, shook her head with a smile.
This person is obviously bad at lying.
But Poseci had no intention of exposing her; she could see Qingling's concern for her friend.
This, Poseci liked.
She had a desire to grow stronger and didn't forget her friends.
True to her original intentions, such a person is rare.
"Go ahead."
"Thank you, High Priest," Chen Qingling said gratefully, spreading her wings and flying toward the first trial's steps.
Soon, she saw Zhu Zhuqing, drenched in sweat, lying on the ninety-ninth step.
