Chapter 306. Tang San's Nine Trials of Godhood.
Inspired by Tang Hao and his son, the people of Slaughter City submitted to their leadership, setting aside past grievances.
Under Tang San's leadership, they began to reorganize into a Soul Master Legion. Tang Hao, fueled by his deep-seated anger and hatred towards the Spirit Hall, named this legion the Avengers Legion.
The Avengers Legion's banner was also very distinctive: a kneeling twelve-winged angel with two swords piercing her back and exiting through her abdomen!
This banner was personally crafted by Tang Hao. Legend has it that during its creation, Tang Hao would involuntarily shed tears whenever he thought of Ah Yin.
"Ah Yin, she must be being tortured by Qian Xunji right now. That damned Qian thief, you'd better be gentle, or I'll feel sorry for Ah Yin!" Tang Hao said through gritted teeth, tears welling in his eyes.
Meanwhile, more and more people joined Slaughter City, and they were naturally absorbed into the Avengers Legion.
Of course, recruiting the Avengers Legion was just a side effect of Tang San and his group's trip to Slaughter City; their main purpose was to prepare for the Asura God's trial.
Tang Hao temporarily placed the legion under the command of the major commanders of Slaughter City, and the group returned to the Slaughter Temple.
Tang Chen opened the passage to the Blood Pool.
Inside the temple, the Blood Pool slowly unfolded, revealing a passage before everyone.
At the bottom of the passage was a spatial vortex connecting to this world.
Tang Chen explained, "That place is the spatial node leading to the Asura God Temple."
Tang San stared intently at the Asura God's spatial node before him, wondering if he really had to undergo the Asura God's trial.
Wasn't the Asura God's position given directly in his previous life?
However, he dared not ask this question. Although Tang San knew the Asura God cherished him, he didn't want to displease the Asura God.
Besides, in this world, gain means loss, and Tang San preferred the rewards of hardship.
Led by Tang Chen, the Shrek F4, Tang Hao, Titan, and their group entered the Asura Temple.
They marveled at its grandeur.
Tang San, however, immediately spotted a demonic sword stuck in the blood pool within the temple.
Seeing the sword's scabbard, Tang San couldn't help but think of Xiao Wu!
In his past life, Xiao Wu was the scabbard of the Asura Sword. He and Xiao Wu were one god, gaining both the God of the Sea and the God of Asura. Together, they killed Bibi Dong, forced Qian Renxue to fall from her godhood, destroyed the Spirit Hall, and ushered in hundreds of thousands of years of peace and prosperity for the entire Douluo Continent.
How nostalgic that was!
Yesterday, while sleeping, Tang San had a dream. He dreamt of a little white rabbit and a group of little gray rabbits.
He knelt down before the gray rabbits and said, "Brother Rabbit, please go slower, it hurts my heart."
At that moment, the little white rabbit said to him, "Sangiegie, um~, the rabbit is exhausted, could you help push him?"
And Tang San actually had that dream. Upon waking, Tang San immediately realized something was wrong. A deep sense of humiliation welled up in his heart, and his hatred for the Spirit Hall was beyond mere rage.
Thinking of Xiao Wu still suffering, Tang San gritted his teeth.
Tang Chen patted Tang San on the shoulder and said, "My Poseidon, Hao'er's Ah Yin, and your Xiao Wu, the reason we were separated is all because of the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall caused all our tragedies. Xiao San, a man should look forward. Strength is the foundation of his words. Only by inheriting the Asura God position can we hope to avenge our humiliation and repay the Spirit Hall a thousandfold, ten thousandfold, for the humiliation and hatred they inflicted upon us." "Xiao San, the future of the Tang family and the Douluo Continent rests on your shoulders," said Tang Hao, the King of Slaughter.
Tang San nodded heavily and said to Tang Hao and Tang Chen, "Daddy, and Grandpa, I will not let you down."
Tang Chen went to preside over the ceremony. He had Tang San enter the center of the stone pillar in the Asura God Square, which Tang San did. Tang Chen then began the assessment.
A rainbow-colored ray of light descended from the sky and disappeared into the center of the stone pillar. Tang San was bathed in the colorful light, and a divine mark of the Asura God, a blood sword mark, appeared on his neck.
The familiar power returned, and Tang San was excited, but his expression remained calm.
Tang Chen laughed:
"Hahahaha, the Nine Trials of Godhood, it's the Nine Trials of Godhood!"
Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar were not surprised that Tang San could obtain the Nine Trials of Godhood from the Asura God.
After all, based on their past life experiences, they already knew that Tang San was the Asura God's great treasure. In their previous life, Tang San was intercepted by the Sea God, thus missing the Asura God's divine trials. Guess what? The Asura God shamelessly gave Tang San his godhood for free. He didn't even need the divine trials.
Now that Tang San was here at the Asura God's testing ground, it was almost like coming home. If the Nine Trials of Godhood weren't the highest level of testing, the Asura God might have come up with other solutions.
Only Tang Hao and Titan were unaware of the meaning of the Nine Trials of Godhood. Titan asked curiously, "Ancestor Tang Chen, what does the Nine Trials of Godhood mean?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao sternly rebuked him, "Titan, do you even have a place to speak here?"
Titan immediately shrank back and humbly said, "Master, this old servant was wrong."
After reprimanding Titan, Tang Hao asked, "Grandpa, what does the Nine Trials of Godhood mean?"
Tang Chen said, "It means that as long as Tang San completes the nine trials bestowed by the God of Asura, he can become the God of Asura."
Hearing Tang Chen's explanation, Tang Hao's eyes lit up, and he looked at Tang San excitedly, "Great! My son with Ah Yin can become a god! Hahahaha!"
Having obtained the Nine Trials of Godhood from the God of Asura, Tang San's confidence was restored.
Ma Hongjun, sporting an ugly face, approached Tang San and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Little San! You've passed the Nine Trials of Godhood! After you become a god, don't forget to restore my face and help me snatch Bai Chenxiang back from the Spirit Hall!"
Tang San confidently replied, "Don't worry, I'll not only restore your face, but I'll also help you snatch Bai Chenxiang back from the Spirit Hall." Dai Mubai rushed over, his voice sharp, "Little San, and what about my crotch?"
Dai Mubai pointed to his groin. Seeing this, Tang Hao and Tang Chen realized what was happening and looked at Tang San expectantly.
Tang San patted his chest and promised, "Great-grandfather, father, and Dai Mubai, I will definitely restore your manhood after I become a god!"
