Chapter 193: Fifth Trial Record
Chapter 193: Fifth Trial Record
Outside the Soul Illusion Realm.
Many contestants were sharing their experiences.
It was their first time participating in this kind of trial, and they found each stage very interesting.
“You guess what illusion I encountered in the first trial? I was actually with my goddess! How could I wake up from that?”
“I saw my dad scolding me… I just visited his grave three months ago…”
“My Soul Pet said it evolved into a Transcendent Soul Pet…”
“Actually, the second trial was more fun. To be honest, I was so comfortable I didn’t want to stop.”
“The first two trials were fun, but the third trial was pure torture. Those Soul-Locking Imps were so annoying! My Whirlwind Badger couldn’t do anything at all…”
“I also failed at the third trial… Only a few people probably passed the third trial, right?”
…
The contestants were discussing excitedly with flushed faces.
“Where is Wang Che? Why hasn’t he come out yet? I haven’t seen him for most of the day. I feel like I’m going to die.”
Bai Youyou looked around anxiously. She had failed at the third trial.
Among them, only Chen Fei and Lei Yunfeng passed the third trial.
The rest didn’t make it and only passed the second trial.
“He should be attempting the fourth trial, right?”
Lei Yunfeng said, “We passed the third trial and took a look at the fourth trial. The Psychic Force Field was quite difficult. Our Soul Pets couldn’t last long and couldn’t get through at all.”
“I think he might be at the fifth trial.”
Chen Fei said, “My intuition tells me he should be at the fifth trial.”
At that moment, a beautiful girl walked over and asked,
“Are you classmates of that student? Do you all know him?”
The contestants looked and thought, oh, isn’t that the Soul Pact Master of Wisdom Pea Ding?
“Yes, yes! We are all classmates from the same Xiyue Continent, and we’ve even participated in competitions together.”
Bai Youyou giggled, “You seem to have been ahead of us all the time. You must have a good result, right?”
Mu Yao smiled awkwardly but politely and said,
“Not at all. Wang Che… his name is Wang Che, right? Your classmate Wang Che has been ahead of me the whole time… I tried to catch up but couldn’t. When I reached the fourth trial, I still didn’t see him… He’s been in second place the whole time.”
When she mentioned second place.
The expressions on their faces were quite interesting.
“Classic Feng Xiao.”
Chen Fei said concisely.
“Truly classic Feng Xiao.”
Lei Yunfeng also said.
The other contestants immediately chimed in.
“What do you mean by that? Are you talking about Feng Xiao again? Is that polite?”
Yang Xiaoshan immediately scolded them, “Just because he always comes in second?”
Mu Yao watched these classmates teasing each other and felt a bit confused.
She didn’t know who that Feng Xiao was.
“Sorry, sorry…”
Bai Youyou laughed heartily and looked at Mu Yao, “Actually, it’s fine… We’re all used to it.”
“Used to it?”
Mu Yao asked curiously, “This Wang Che’s Soul Pets are a Green Caterpillar and a rather special Magnetic Sword. Is he very powerful in your Xiyue Continent? He managed to pass so many trials so quickly…”
“Wang Che is this year’s champion of the Qihang Cup in our Xiyue Continent.”
Bai Youyou boasted extravagantly, “He and a Green Caterpillar defeated countless powerful Soul Pets, even beat Dragon-type Soul Pets. Since then, I’ve been a Wang Che fan.”
“If anyone dares to look down on my Green Caterpillar, I’ll smash their head!”
As she spoke, Bai Youyou raised her fist and laughed heartily.
“To be honest, I’m also a Wang Che fan.”
Yang Xiaoshan agreed, “Xiong Qi and I will never forget the time we were defeated by a Green Caterpillar.”
“I’m a caterpillar fan.”
Chen Fei adjusted his glasses, “Wang Che’s Green Caterpillar is one of a kind in the world.”
“I’m a sword fan.”
“I’m a double fan…”
Everyone raised their hands in agreement.
Mu Yao was astonished. It was her first time seeing a student so popular.
These contestants should all be elite competitors from their continent.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have come to the Soul Illusion Realm trial before even entering university.
But to have so many elite competitors unanimously praise him with such genuine admiration.
Mu Yao had never seen anything like it before.
She had heard of the Qihang Cup in Xiyue Continent. Her own continent had similar competitions.
But even the champions there weren’t this popular.
“So he’s that amazing. I feel better now.” Mu Yao also smiled and said, “He should be challenging the fifth trial. The fifth trial involves facing a Nether Soul King.”
“Nether Soul King?”
Everyone was stunned.
Some of them hadn’t even passed the third trial.
They had no idea what the later trials were like, only knowing the names at most.
“Wow, is that even for students?”
“The trials after the third one are probably meant for university students.”
“Oh no, I can’t brag anymore. Wang Che will probably fail at the fifth trial.”
“I think there’s some hope… I checked, and the fourth and fifth trials have difficulty options. The easiest one might be manageable.”
…
Mu Yao found it very interesting to listen to these students talk about Wang Che.
She couldn’t help but ask more about him.
After some conversation, they quickly became familiar.
Mainly because Mu Yao was sweet-looking, had a good figure, and spoke softly. She was a genuinely sweet girl from Northern River.
They were willing to share.
“Ah… was that Green Caterpillar really so amazing? It could even defeat a Magpie Fairy Dragon…”
“You bet, you’re not familiar with our Xiyue Continent here. Watching the final match of the Qihang Cup could totally change your view of Soul Pets.”
“This, this, Zhao Yixia, you boy, come here. See, this guy’s Timid Lizard fought a match and evolved into a Flying Frenzied Lizard.”
“This, this, Mountain-Hugging Bamboo Bear, the latest Bamboo Bear evolution developed in our Xiyue Continent, an earth Soul Pet specialized in strength. It couldn’t even outmatch that little caterpillar in strength.”
“Eh? Could a Green Caterpillar have such strong power?”
“That’s nothing. Cui Ao’s Flame Sparrow, with both sky and fire attributes, dominated most Soul Pets in the matches. It had double advantage against the Green Caterpillar, yet got instantly defeated by it.”
Mu Yao gasped in surprise repeatedly.
Facing students from other continents, a group of contestants talked without holding back their praises.
Seeing the stunned expressions of these out-of-continent students, they felt super satisfied with their bragging.
After all, it brought honor to their continent.
“Alright, alright, everyone.”
Bai Youyou waved her hand. “Look how scared they are… tone it down a bit.”
Mu Yao awkwardly patted the head of the Wisdom Pea Ding in her arms:
“I’ve never seen such a powerful Green Caterpillar… but from what you’ve said, it sounds really fierce. By the way, have you all chosen your universities? Any of you coming to our Northern River? I’m in the Magic Soul Department at Northern River University. We might become classmates.”
“Yes, I chose the Combat Soul Department at Northern River Comprehensive University!”
“Me too!”
“And me, I’m also going to Northern River!”
Mu Yao saw that nearly ten had chosen Northern River.
She couldn’t help feeling very surprised.
People like Zhao Yixia and Chen Fei had all chosen Northern River.
“Does your Xiyue Continent have so many choosing Northern River?” Mu Yao found it strange.
“Because we heard Wang Che also went to Northern River, it seems.”
Bai Youyou said, “Not sure exactly which university, probably your Northern River University. So some went there too. For us, among the top schools, as long as it’s not one of those few, the differences aren’t big.”
“Northern River has nice scenery, and the girls are pretty too. It’s great.”
“We’re really tired of staying in Xiyue Continent.”
Northern River University was Northern River Comprehensive University.
It was also the top university in Northern River.
“Ah, really?”
Mu Yao was startled, then laughed, “Then our Northern River University hit the jackpot! Such an amazing guy came to our Northern River University… so great!”
Mu Yao was genuinely happy.
Northern River Comprehensive University had many talented students every year.
But its rankings in various competitions in the War Zone were falling behind, getting worse each year.
With such a talented person joining, wouldn’t Northern River University rise up next year?
Plus, being in the same school as such a talent, she could learn more from him.
If he could train a Green Caterpillar to be so powerful, he must be super strong in raising Soul Pets.
Mu Yao felt a little excited inside.
Just then, an officer stepped forward with a blank expression and said:
“Students, your trials are over. Your results are recorded here. The records for the first five trials have been updated. If interested, you can check yourselves. Rewards obtained during the trials can be taken after you register them.”
“We hope you can go further next time you participate in the trials.”
After speaking, the officer left.
His expression seemed numb, as if he had suffered some powerful mental shock.
“Records broken? All five trial records? That’s insane!”
“Who did it? Let me see…”
“Five trials? Someone passed the Fifth Trial too? Is that even possible?”
“I don’t believe anyone could pass the Fifth Trial…”
…
Many contestants opened their Communicators and started checking.
During the trials, they couldn’t bring their Communicators inside.
Military Communicators only had simple rescue and location functions.
At a glance, they were stunned.
Goodness, all five trial records were broken by one person…
“First trial… six minutes twenty-eight seconds?”
Mu Yao was shocked by this record.
She had taken over twenty-three minutes…
How was six minutes twenty-eight seconds even possible?
The further she looked, the more stunned and dumbfounded Mu Yao became.
Each trial’s record was at least one or two times faster than the previous record?
She would believe it if a Professional Soul Contractor had taken the trials.
Especially the Fifth Trial.
The time for the Fifth Trial was also very short, just over ten minutes.
He defeated that Nether Soul King in just over ten minutes…
How was that possible?
Not just her, many students were dumbfounded too.
Only a few of them had passed the third trial, yet Wang Che even cleared the Fifth Trial?
The scene fell very quiet.
The middle-aged officer watching nearby sighed and said:
“Seeing these records, I hope these kids won’t be discouraged… This Wang Che is from Xiyue Continent, I’ve heard of him… didn’t expect him to be this good.”
“These records are at the level of a Professional Soul Contractor. Even if a Professional Soul Contractor came, they might not achieve this speed,” said a soldier beside him.
Not to mention these students, even they were stunned when they saw it.
Especially after seeing the Fifth Trial.
Really, they were shocked.
For the first few trials, watching from the side, they could still accept it.
But the Fifth Trial…
Unfortunately, they didn’t know how this student Wang Che passed it.
Not long after.
Wang Che came out.
