Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“The strength of this soul energy is not high. The impact of the illusion is not strong.
‘Wang Che smiled.
After all, it was the first round of the initial-stage soul illusion.
In less than a minute, the Magnetic Sword woke up.
It looked very unhappy.
‘Wang Che also asked.
Good fellow, the illusion the Magnetic Sword encountered was even more ridiculous.
It saw itself being used by a peerless expert who slaughtered everything. Sword Qi swept through a million miles, turning it into a peerless divine sword.
However, that peerless expert could not reconcile with Wang Che.
‘They were completely different people.
It could not tolerate this.
It immediately reacted and the illusion was broken.
‘Wang Che estimated that this might be related to the red energy of the Magnetic Sword itself.
A soul pet like the Magnetic Sword was originally the martial soul power of an ancient human expert. It was left behind and slowly fused with an ancient soul device to develop intelligence.
Therefore, the remaining red energy was most likely not martial soul power that had completely fused with it.
It was the remnant martial soul power of a human expert from the ancient era.
The soul energy was affected and produced a similar illusion.
However, this martial soul power had nothing to do with Wang Che, so it was broken by the Magnetic Sword.
“Alright, let’s continue in a minute!”
‘Wang Che brought the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword forward at a leisurely pace.
After about 50 meters, a soul energy flew in from the abyss.
However, with the previous experience, the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword dealt with it rather easily.
‘They could basically break through the illusion in a minute and absorb the wisp of soul energy. Their mental strength rapidly increased.
The 200-meter Soul Forgetful Bridge was crossed in less than five minutes. Wang Che brought the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword over.
‘Wang Che had absorbed four soul energies and his divine sense had greatly increased. He was almost at the threshold of the second level of the Soul Cultivation
Chapter.
“It seems that in this trial, my Soul Cultivation
Chapter can definitely break through to the second level!”
‘The green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword’s mental strength had also improved significantly.
According to the standard of enduring Wang Che’s mental pressure, it could only last for 40 minutes before this.
Now that they had absorbed this soul energy, their mental strength had increased.
They could last for 50 minutes.
In just a few minutes, the improvement was already so great.
“This is a good place. If only I could repeat the challenge.”
Wang Che felt that it was a pity.
He tried to repeat the challenge and found that it was useless.
If he walked back now, no soul energy would fly out.
Ding!
Acrisp voice came from the communication device. A few words appeared:
“Your record is 6 minutes and 28 seconds… You’ve broken the record for the first round.”
‘Wang Che glanced at it casually and did not feel anything.
He had never cared about breaking records.
Therefore, Wang Che could not be bothered to look at the previous record.
“Let’s go to the next round. The name of the next round is the Bliss Platform. The name sounds good… It’s much more comfortable than a dark name like the Soul Forgetful Bridge.”
The better the name, the more troublesome it would be.
Looking back, Wang Che did not see anyone on the other side of the bridge.
This meant that the students behind had not reached the entrance of the first round.
“You have to work hard.” Wang Che encouraged these students.
Soon, the students arrived.
“Where’s Wang Che?”
Lei Yunfeng said excitedly, “He’s already broken through, right? Are we about to catch up? Violent Lightning Fang, you did well this time!”
‘The other students minded their own business. They looked at the Soul Forgetful Bridge in front and realized that they did not catch up.
“He should be in front of the bridge. It’s just that the fog is too thick, so I can’t see clearly. Perhaps he’s about to pass.”
Yang Xiaoshan patted his Mountain Bamboo Bear with a gratified expression.
With the green caterpillar as an example, the effect was too strong.
They arrived at the entrance of the first round one after another.
“Cut the crap. Wang Che might even pass soon!”
A student didn’t say anything and brought his soul pet onto the bridge.
Then… after walking for a few meters, he stayed where it was as if he had lost its mind.
Before a minute had passed, he suddenly screamed.
As if he had been fully drained, he walked back weakly.
His eyes were listless. His soul pet’s situation was even worse.
“F*ck, is it that exaggerated?”
“You haven’t even walked a few meters. Can’t even last a minute?”
“Brother, can you do it? Is your mental strength that bad?”
“Let me try…”
Soon, one student after another bravely advanced… Then, they crawled back at the speed of light.
A small portion of them took more than ten minutes to barely regain their senses.
Then, they continued moving forward. Then, they barely lasted another ten minutes… and the time gradually shortened.
‘The fastest was the female student with a mental-type soul pet and intelligence.
Every time she stopped, it was less than five minutes. In fact, her speed became faster and faster. Then, she successfully passed the first round.
“I should have broken the record, right?” Mu Yao could not help but think.
However, when she thought of the classmate she had seen previously, Mu Yao lost some confidence.
With the goal of training an extremely powerful mental-type King-ranked soul pet, she came from a top club in the North River Continent that mainly cultivated mental-type soul pets.
Her family background and talent were all good. Before entering the university, the goal of participating in the Soul Illusion was actually very simple.
She wanted to pass three rounds.
She could just break a record along the way.
After all, she had a mental-type soul pet and had an advantage in the trial of the soul illusion.
Yes, that was what she thought before entering the soul illusion.
However, after entering… everything changed.
Thinking of this, Mu Yao shook her head and clenched her fists to cheer herself on.
“It’s different, different. Adapting the environment and passing the checkpoint are two different things… I should be able to break the record.”
Mu Yao looked at the communication device in her hand. There was a time recorded:
22 minutes and 38 seconds!
Seeing this result, Mu Yao was delighted.
She had indeed broken the record!
She had seen the records before entering the first round.
The first place was left by a university student three months ago. It was 25 minutes and 40 seconds!
She was three minutes faster than the record left by a university student!
‘Mu Yao was too happy.
“yay!”
Mu Yao patted the Wisdom Bean on the side, “Little Bean, look, we broke the record! We broke the first record. There are only two more rounds to go.”
After removing the hat and scarf, the Wisdom Bean was as round as a soybean.
It also replied to Mu Yao happily.
“It’s just a little strange. According to the seniors of the club, there should be a message when breaking the record. Is my communication device broken?”
She was a little puzzled and did not think too much about it, “I wonder how long the student in front used? With my clearing speed, I should be able to catch up to him quickly, right? He set off more than 20 minutes earlier than me.”
‘Mu Yao and the Wisdom Bean planned to catch up to the student in front.
“Sir, the record has been broken.”
Outside, the soldier who had been in charge of observing the students suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“Oh? How fast? Did they break through 20 minutes?”
The middle-aged officer asked, “Is it that Student Mu Yao?”
“No, the record is a number I can’t understand…”
The soldier’s pupils shook as he looked at the recorded number transmitted back.
“How long?”
“Six minutes and twenty-eight seconds.”
‘Wang Che was currently bringing the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword to the second round.
The Bliss Platform was an interesting hurdle.
After crossing the Soul Forgetful Bridge and leaving the spacious battlefield, he walked for about half an hour.
This half an hour was to give the Contract Soul Master and soul pets time to recover.
They arrived at the Bliss Platform.
This was an arched platform.
From one side to the other, the highest point was 300 meters high, like a small mountain.
He had to climb up from one side and walk down the other.
Every step had strange patterns engraved on it, like twisted soul pets.
After walking up the steps, the pattern on the steps would light up. Then, threads of special soul energy would fuse into the body.
These wisps of soul energy were very special. They were far inferior to the soul energy on the Soul Forgetful Bridge.
There was also no illusion.
Instead, it made the soul pet feel very comfortable and happy.
‘When Wang Che walked up the steps, the wisps of mental energy fused into his soul.
It would subconsciously make the soul feel a hint of joy.
“These soul energies have all been cleansed… They’re very pure. Such pleasure is true joy.”
“It looks like a welfare checkpoint…”
However, Wang Che saw through the essence of this hurdle at a glance.
They had to slowly walk up the 300-meter platform. With every step, one would obtain a wisp of soul energy.
It would make the soul pet’s mind happy as they kept walking.
This joy would slowly increase.
Towards the end, after walking up tirelessly, they would even tum a deaf ear to the Contract Soul Master’s orders and slowly lose their mind.
‘When they reached the highest stage, they would go berserk.
They would lose consciousness and even go crazy. Then, they would enter a weakened state and fail.
The Contract Soul Masters were the same.
This was the difficulty of this round.
As long as they walked up, these wisps of soul energy would let the soul pet enter a happy state.
It was not much, just a little pleasure.
If they stabilized their speed and slowly moved forward, when the soul pet calmed down, they could continue upwards.
This way, even if they reached the highest stage, the soul pet could still maintain its state and control itself. It wouldn’t be affected by this joy.
However, towards the end, the soul pet would seem to be addicted and find it extremely difficult to maintain its rising speed.
It was even difficult for a Contract Soul Master to maintain it.
The faster one rose, the higher the chance of failure.
This round tested the soul pet and Contract Soul Master’s control over their minds.
Most people could tell what the problem was.
However, the number of students eliminated by the Bliss Platform was the highest.
Very few students could control the speed of their soul pets and themselves in this situation.
Wang Che himself was not affected. If he could walk up and down in one go, it would only take ten minutes to go back and forth.
However, the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword were not him. It was still a little difficult to face such a test.
If Wang Che wanted to pass this round quickly, it was actually very simple.
Taking out the Nine Coral Root, even if there was only a small stalk left, it could allow the soul pet and Contract Soul Master to maintain their consciousness at all times and advance very quickly.
Of course, using natural treasures was like cheating.
This round tested the soul pet’s self-control.
It was also a form of training, so Wang Che did not take out the Nine Coral Root.
Every ten meters, the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword would stop to rest and control their desire to go up.
Then, it took about 20 minutes to reach the top of the platform.
After walking down the platform, because they had adapted quite a bit, the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword could also control themselves steadily.
