CHAPTER 262: CHAPTER 255: PRELIMINARY SELECTION (PART 2)

Long Yunxiao raised his hand and released a Soul Seal.

This strengthened the defense of the Cyan Wood Wind Python, allowing it to fight with more reckless abandon.

Under the fierce attack of the Cyan Wood Wind Python, the Iron Armor Bay Crocodile suffered casualties.

A few minutes later, the last Iron Armor Bay Crocodile was also killed by the Cyan Wood Wind Python.

The Cyan Wood Wind Python expended quite a bit this time, with its stamina consumption exceeding thirty percent.

Long Yunxiao did not proceed directly to the fifth level but stayed on the fourth level to rest.

Chu Chen couldn’t help but marvel at the Cyan Wood Wind Python’s strength, its quality must have reached Perfect Level, and its skill levels were also very high. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have passed the fourth level so easily; the opponent might even have a domain.

"Wow, that’s too strong, watching him conquer the tower gave me the illusion that I could do it too," exclaimed Wang Lu in surprise.

"Yes, he is indeed a Double S-level prodigy; the gap between us is too large," murmured Gangzi with a sigh.

Obviously, he was hit hard.

At this moment, Wang Lingfeng said in a deep voice, "His strength is already not weaker than a freshman in college. This guy is really abnormal."

It’s known that the first two years of contracting a Guardian Beast are the fastest for strength improvement. Long Yunxiao’s cultivation time is a whole year less than those freshmen, showing how terrifying his talent is.

While everyone was talking, Long Yunxiao had already gotten up and headed for the fifth floor.

It can be said he is the only one among these three groups who has a chance of passing the fifth level, thus everyone’s eyes were focused on him.

This time, Long Yunxiao’s opponent was sixteen Epic Quality Howling Moon Wolf Kings, and their skill levels were also very high.

Long Yunxiao frowned upon seeing this, clearly feeling the oppressive force brought by the Howling Moon Wolf Kings.

With the Cyan Wood Wind Python’s current strength, passing the fifth level was simply impossible.

Thinking of this, Long Yunxiao patted the body of the Cyan Wood Wind Python and said in a deep voice, "Looks like we have to use some tricks."

The Cyan Wood Wind Python hissed upon hearing this, as the dense Wood and Wind elements quickly gathered into its body.

In the blink of an eye, its aura increased by more than forty percent.

Long Yunxiao raised his hand and released three Soul Seals, which turned into a stream of light and plunged into the Cyan Wood Wind Python.

Feeling the surging power within, the Cyan Wood Wind Python let out a roar and charged directly into the wolf pack.

The duration of the Secret Technique was limited, and the Cyan Wood Wind Python dared not hesitate, its thick snake tail like a whip leaving afterimages in the air.

The Howling Moon Wolf Kings were not to be underestimated, cooperating with perfect synergy, they blocked all of the Cyan Wood Wind Python’s attacks.

Seeing this, Long Yunxiao’s brow furrowed, and his expression became serious.

He glanced at the sixth level, sighed helplessly, then issued another command to the Cyan Wood Wind Python.

The Cyan Wood Wind Python let out a somewhat frenzied roar, then twisted its body and dashed towards the closest Howling Moon Wolf King.

The speed it burst forth was astonishing; even with the speed of the Howling Moon Wolf Kings, they couldn’t dodge in time.

The Cyan Wood Wind Python opened its jaws and bit onto the Howling Moon Wolf King’s neck, coiling its body around the opponent.

Its body began to contract violently, a terrifying force erupting instantly, winding the Howling Moon Wolf King tightly.

The Howling Moon Wolf King, trapped by this terrifying strength, could only utter a huffing sound, clearly in a near-death state.

The wolf pack rushed over, attacking the Cyan Wood Wind Python with claws and teeth in a frenzy.

The Cyan Wood Wind Python surprisingly did not avoid or hide, allowing the attacks to land on its body.

In a flash, more than a dozen foot-deep wounds appeared on its body.

The intense pain drove the Cyan Wood Wind Python into madness, its body contracting again, strangling the bound Howling Moon Wolf King to death.

It extended its snake head to bite another Howling Moon Wolf King, reusing its tactic to coil around the opponent again.

Chu Chen frowned upon seeing this, as this tactic was too familiar, it’s a style favored by Nirvana, exchanging wounds for wounds in combat.

However, the opponent did not have the talent for The More You Fight, the Braver You Get and Limb Regeneration.

If the Cyan Wood Wind Python didn’t possess some kind of recovery talent, it would likely die at the wolves’ mouths.

At this moment, Chu Chen noticed the wounds on the Cyan Wood Wind Python had already stopped bleeding and were beginning to scab over.

It seems the opponent indeed possesses a recovery-type talent, no wonder it dared to recklessly use the wound-exchange tactic.

However, this recovery talent comes at a price when used.

This means its talent cannot be used continuously, so it must fight quickly, otherwise, it will still die under the wolf’s kiss.

Soon the second Howling Moon Wolf King was killed by the Cyan Wood Wind Python.

This time it didn’t rush to attack the third Howling Moon Wolf King but swept its snake tail, directly knocking three attacking Howling Moon Wolf Kings away.

Its body blurred as it dashed over, the three Howling Moon Wolf Kings quickly got up only to be met with a snake tail.

At this moment, the Cyan Wood Wind Python’s snake tail was like an arm, curling them together like a spring and winding them tightly.

Before the wolf pack could react, the three Howling Moon Wolf Kings were already killed by it.

Seeing this, Chu Chen revealed a look of realization, the Cyan Wood Wind Python was feigning weakness, lulling the wolf pack into lowering their guard.

The wolf pack’s numbers had reduced by thirty percent, making it somewhat easier for the Cyan Wood Wind Python to deal with them.

As time went by, the number of Howling Moon Wolf Kings continued to decrease.

One minute later, the Cyan Wood Wind Python killed the last Howling Moon Wolf King, collapsing on the ground panting heavily, producing a hissing sound with fresh blood continuously oozing from its wound, clearly having pushed its talent to the limit.

Seeing this, Long Yunxiao decisively gave up on continuing to challenge the tower.

Chu Chen frowned at the sight, a Double S prodigy with just this level of strength seems impossible, how much of the opponents’ hidden strength remains unknown to him.

However, Long Yunxiao’s achievement was still notable, as so far he was the first contestant to pass the fifth level of the Trial Tower.

Soon it was the turn for the fourth and fifth groups, and when it came to the eighth group, Wang Lu was called.

Encouraged by everyone, he went to the first level of the Trial Tower.

Wang Lu’s Guardian Beast was the Angry Wind Elf, but with the help of Lu Hongfei, the Angry Wind Elf’s quality was enhanced to Excellence Level, and its skill levels were also high.

The first three levels weren’t too difficult for him.

The fourth level, however, was quite a test, facing eight Perfect Quality Frost War Dogs at once; this greatly pressured Wang Lu.

Under Wang Lu’s command, the Angry Wind Elf flew directly into the air, letting out a delicate shout as the surrounding Wind and Fire elements quickly gathered around it, causing its aura to surge.

Ultimately, the Angry Wind Elf narrowly won, and Wang Lu stopped at the fourth level.

Three more groups went by, and then Zhang Yuyan’s name was called.

The Guardian Beast she chose to face was the Wind Burst Mad Lion, its quality had been enhanced to Perfect Level, and most of its skills had reached the Great Success Realm.

Enhancing the Guardian Beast’s quality is extremely difficult for an ordinary person, but for someone like Zhang Yuyan from a powerful family, it’s just a matter of spending some money.

Like others, the first three levels posed no difficulty for Zhang Yuyan.

Quickly, she reached the fourth level, facing eight Star Beasts of the same realm, this also added a lot of pressure on Zhang Yuyan.

Under her command, the Wind Burst Mad Lion flew directly into the air, issuing a fierce roar as it utilized its strong physique and high-level skills, taking five minutes to defeat eight Star Beasts.

At once, both Zhang Yuyan, not daring to delay, immediately commanded the Wind Burst Mad Lion to recover its strength.

Ten minutes later, the Wind Burst Mad Lion defeated the last star beast on the fourth floor, immediately resting on the ground, clearly exhausted.
