— Chapter 281 —

Sea God Island, Yunlong calmly meditated below Nine Heaven Staircase. Kaguya stayed on his side and also cultivated her spirit power.

“After all, they should be here.” He commented while feeling his teleportation marks activated, which caused him to chuckle a little.

Yunlong opened his eyes and saw seven ladies landing on the solid concrete. They are his maids and loyal subjects who helped him for years.

Chu Xiaoyu, Chu Yunxi, Yu Ning’er, Bai Xue, Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuyun, and Xue Nu looked around the scenery with excited yet confused expressions.

“Oh, so this is the sea god island,” Bai Xue said casually with great interest. “I could feel spirit energy is richer here.”

Chu Xiaoyu and Zhu Zhuqing spotted Yunlong and approached him with a smile. “Young master.” They spoke simultaneously.

Yunlong patted them and responded, “Good.”

Yu Ning’er frowned because she could feel someone was staring at them intently. She turned around and noticed Sea Woman Douluo observing them from afar.

“Who is this woman?” She tilted her head in confusion.

Zhu Zhuyun checked her complexion and make-up, nodding her head in approval. “Yes, I look good enough for the young master.” She pumped her hand up.

Chu Yunxi beamed because Yunlong’s kiss kept her heart warm every day. She couldn’t even sleep properly because his conviction to protect her was too powerful.

“Ara~, He became more handsome.” She observed Yunlong’s face.

Meanwhile, Xue Nu was staring solemnly at the Sea God’s temple. “God…” She whispered with a complicated tone.

She glanced at the ring on her finger and added, “Can I really become a god?”

Yunlong placed his hand below his chin and instructed, “Since all of you arrived here, you should start your assessment on the god pillar.”

“I’ll wait.” He smirked playfully.

They nodded and proceeded to the holy pillars on Sea God Island. Yunlong’s clone had explained almost everything about the Sea God Trials beforehand, so they weren’t completely clueless.

— Sea Dragon Holy Pillar —

Chu Xiaoyu landed on the Sea Dragon Holy Pillar and approached Sea Dragon Douluo calmly.

“So you are one of the seven?” Sea God asked because Yunlong did tell them that seven people would also partake in Sea God Trials.

Chu Xiaoyu nodded quietly and answered, “I’m a young master’s maid.”

“I’ve been on his side since we were six years old.”

“His favorite food is-.”

Sea God Douluo cut Chu Xiaoyu’s speech and said, “Okay, stop, stop!”

“You’re here for assessment, not telling your young master’s biography.” He added with a sigh.

Chu Xiaoyu tilted her head in confusion and replied, “I see…”

“What should I do?”

“I want you to stay in the array.” Sea Dragon Douluo instructed while pointing at the circle array. “Don’t fight the Sea God’s blessing and accept it wholeheartedly.”

At the other holy pillars, Yunlong’s maids approached the seven children of Sea God.

— SeaHorse Holy Pillar —

Bai Xue landed on the SeaHorse Holy Pillar, which caused the guardian there to test her first.

SeaHorse Douluo, who guarded the holy pillar, greeted Bai Xue with a smile. He is a tall, well-built man with long silver hair. He wore simple black robes with black hairpieces.

“Welcome to SeaHorse Holy Pillar.” He said gently.

“Nice to meet you, Senior.” Bai Xue politely returned with a light bow.

Since they knew what was about to happen, Sea Horse Douluo told Bai Xue the procedure to start the assessment. Yet, he added another requirement to dodge sea waters within his domain.

“Okay.” Bai Xue used her broom martial soul and shocked Seahorse Douluo with her flame control. Her cultivation also makes him want to cough blood inside.

“Ehem, How old are you?” Sea Horse Douluo coughed dryly.

“Me? I’m 14 years old this year.” Bai Xue smiled while flicking her red hair.

“…” Sea Horse Douluo stared at her with a dumbfounded expression.

“The oldest among us is Xue Nu. She’s a spirit beast, after all.”

“The second oldest is Senior Yunxi, and the third oldest is Zhuqing’s older sister.”

“As for the fourth oldest, it was that annoying lightning rat.”

“I, Zhuqing, and Xiaoyu are around the same age.”

“Ah, Senior Yunxi is Xiaoyu’s mom, by the way.”

“Anyway, let’s start, Senior.” Bai Xue pulled her witch hat.

— Sea Spear Holy Pillar —

Yu Ning’er arrived on the Sea Spear Holy Pillar and silently walked toward Sea Spear Douluo. He meditated near the pillar and slowly opened his eyes.

Sea Spear Douluo is a tall man with very long blond hair. He wore a black top that exposed his stomach and black pants.

They stared at each other calmly and released a powerful spear intent.

It was a short introduction to each other, but Sea Spear Douluo admitted Yu Ning’er is powerful for her age.

“Do you have a teacher?” Sea Spear Douluo asked while standing up from his position.

“Yes.” Yu Ning’er answered with a smile. “He also could be said as my father because he taught me so many things, including the spear way.”

Sea Spear Douluo nodded and commented, “Then, I’ll be your second teacher.”

“Your spear intent is strong but lacks shape.”

“What’s the purpose of your spear, to protect? to attack? or both?”

Yu Ning’er put on a thoughtful expression and replied, “Both.”

“I’ll be a spear for the young master, defending him from any harm and killing every one of his enemies.”

A clear resolution of Yu Ning’er did make Sea Spear Douluo smile for a moment.

He shook his head and stated, “We’ll see about that soon.”

“Now, walk on this array because we’re gonna start the assessment.” He added with a calm tone.

—- Sea Fantasy Holy Pillar —

Zhu Zhuyun smirked and greeted, “I’ll be in your care, Senior.”

Sea Fantasy Douluo opened his eyes and frowned at Zhu Zhuyun for a moment. He could tell she was full of the scheme and would do anything to reach her goal.

Sea Fantasy Douluo has short, stylish blond hair and yellow eyes. He wore black robes with short sleeves and a collar high enough to cover the lower half of his face.

“Senior, you’re a master in spiritual technique, right?” Zhu Zhuyun asked curiously.

“That’s correct.” Sea Fantasy Douluo replied with a nod. “Yet, your martial soul is not suitable for my teaching.”

Zhu Zhuyun shook her head and showed an astral evil-eyed black cat to him.

“This is the spirit soul. Her name is Little Yun.”

“Our young master has created a way to gain a spirit ring without killing the spirit beast.”

“With a spirit soul, One could also mutate their martial soul.”

Zhu Zhuyun showed Sea Fantasy Douluo her martial soul and spirit ring configuration, which caused him to gasp in surprise.

Sea Fantasy Douluo witnessed Zhu Zhuyun’s body become more beautiful with spiritual energy around her. A series of spirit rings, consisting of triple purple, and triple blacks, appeared.

“How could one possess such a bizarre configuration?” He solemnly looked at Zhu Zhuyun’s spirit rings.

However, he quickly remembered Yunlong’s spirit ring configuration a few hours ago, causing Zhu Zhuyun to look more normal.

Zhu Zhuyun covered her mouth and added, “My martial soul is not hell chivet anymore. It’s called Evil-Eyed Chivet now.”

“I can control both spiritual energy and dark elements.”

“We are pretty similar, you know.” She giggled viciously.

“You’ll do anything to punish someone who dares to oppose your master.”

“Right, Senior?”

Sea Fantasy Douluo sighed and replied, “Very well, but my training won’t be easy.”

“Don’t worry,” Zhu Zhuyun moved her gaze in Yunlong’s direction.

“What can be harder than not being on my master’s side?”

She pressed her chest and whispered, ‘I wonder when the young master will punish me?’

‘I want it hard and slow, mhnn~.’

— Sea Star Holy Pillar —

Xue Nu arrived with a speck of snow around her.

Sea Star Douluo observed and commented, “I see, you’re heavenly snow woman.”

“That explained your strength.”

Sea Star Douluo is a short, red-headed boy with lazy yellow eyes. He wore a simple robe adorned with spiraling embroidery and a golden collar.

He appears to be a child, though he is over ninety.

“I would never expect a genuine spirit beast to take Sea God Trials.” He added solemnly.

“Is there a problem with that?” Xue Nu asked with a frown.

They released the pressure on each other and caused the area to tremble a little. Xue Nu gently grasped the air, and a snowy field formed around them.

Sea Star Douluo won’t back down to Xue Nu and used his domain. A few illusionary tentacles appeared and sucked spirit energy within Xue Nu’s snowy field.

KACHA! BAM!

Sea Star Douluo clenched his hand and launched a punch at Xue Nu, who defended herself with a sword.

“Devouring…” He destroyed Xue Nu’s sword effortlessly.

“You’re strong, but my ability is the worst for you…”

“I see that you were one of three extreme north emperors.”

“Oh, no wonder you are powerful.” Sea Star Douluo nodded his head in understanding.

Xue Nu looked at him calmly because she could freeze Sea Star Douluo and win immediately. Nevertheless, she wasn’t here for such a mundane thing but to train herself to become a god.

‘Let’s see how a human’s method could turn me into a god.’ Xue Nu thought while pulling her snowy field back.

Sea Star Douluo thought about something and commented, “A spirit beast disciple, huh.”

“That’s interesting to see.”

“What’s your name, snow emperor?”

Xue Nu opened her mouth and answered, “Xue Nu.”

— Sea Ghost Holy Pillar —

Zhu Zhuqing appeared from the shadows and saw the Sea Ghost Douluo.

The Sea Ghost Douluo is a young man with short light brown hair grown over his eyes. His eyes, though rarely seen, match his hair color.

“I won’t ask much.” The Sea Ghost opened his mouth. “Since you chose me, you should be an agility spirit master.”

“Yes,” Zhu Zhuqing replied. “Yunlong said I should be an agility-attack spirit master.”

“My attack is based on my pure speed and precise yet swift attack.”

Sea Ghost Douluo glanced at the holy pillar and said, “We’ll race to the top.”

“If you can follow me, you’re more qualified than I am in the past.”

Zhu Zhuqing activated her martial soul and stood beside Sea Ghost Douluo. They stared at each other briefly and suddenly disappeared from their position.

A speck of dust flew slightly, and Sea Ghost Douluo had reached half of the holy pillar’s height, but Zhu Zhuqing was not far from him.

She chased without any problem and even slowly approached his speed.

Sea Ghost Douluo smiled and increased his speed more by accelerating himself up. Two fleeting shadows are climbing on the Sea Ghost Holy Pillar at such a fast pace.

“Good.” Sea Ghost Douluo appeared on the top and saw Zhu Zhuqing one second behind him.

“I expected no less than a person who got approved by Sea God’s inheritor.” He praised gently.

“Thank you for the compliment, but my speed is far slower than the young master.” Zhu Zhuqing humbly accepted

“He’s the embodiment of an apex monster.”

Sea Ghost Douluo nodded and responded, “You want to at least stand beside him, right?”

Zhu Zhuqing smiled beautifully and answered, “Yes.”

— Sea Woman Holy Pillar —

Chu Yunxi walked past a series of spirit beasts and bound them in an ice wind prison. She arrived on the Sea Woman Holy Pillar and saw a young girl frowning at her.

“I won’t accept you.” Sea Woman Douluo crossed her arms.

“Even if you’re his maid, you don’t possess the characteristics of Sea Woman.”

Chu Yunxi tilted her head and asked, “Are you perhaps venting your anger at me?”

“Ara~, How adorable.”

“However, I also don’t like your tone…” She added indifferently.

Chu Yunxi rarely showed her martial soul to others because she was afraid of the past.

Chu Xiaoyu actually inherited her grandfather’s martial soul, so Chu Yunxi could only contribute to her ice attribute.

A staff appeared in Chu Yunxi’s hand, and a violent breeze swept over Sea Woman Holy Pillar. Starwheel Ice-Wind Staff manifested itself after years of hiding.

Sea Woman Douluo’s eyes widened because she recognized Chu Yunxi’s martial soul. “Starwheel Ice-Wind Staff.”

“Are you perhaps Bing Chun’s Daughter?” She awkwardly asked.

Chu Yunxi frowned and questioned, “How did you know my father’s name?”

“…” Sea WomanDouluo’s hand trembled a little.

The Sea Woman Douluo is a citizen of Sea God Island and the granddaughter of the Mermaid Clan chief.

She was exceptionally talented among her clan and took on the Trials of the Sea God at some point, earning a Black Level Trial. She passed and became a guardian of the holy pillars, gaining a place among the Seven Children of the Sea God.

Bing Chun is a familiar name to Sea Woman Douluo because he was a benefactor of the Mermaid Clan. He saved one of their clan members in the past from a group of Evil Spirit Orca.

Sea Woman Douluo knew Bing Chun’s wife possessed a powerful martial soul called Starwheel Ice Staff, which looks exactly the same as Chu Yunxi’s martial soul.

“This is fate.” She sighed slightly.

“Let’s start your assessment.”

— Nine Heaven Staircase —

Yunlong smirked because his maids started their assessment at the same time. “Show them your potential.” He confidently said.

BOOM!

Sea God Island suddenly trembled, and a crimson color exploded from Sea Dragon Holy Pillar.

“HOW!?!” Sea Dragon Douluo watched Chu Xiaoyu’s body wrapped by red light.

However, it wasn’t just Sea Dragon Douluo, but also other Seven Children of the Sea God.

The other holy pillar exploded in red brilliance and painted the entire island with intertwined light. Yunlong’s maids had received his blood essence and connected their fates with him.

They were part of Yunlong’s journey and divinity, except for Xue Nu, who received a red trial based on her strength alone.

“Well, they don’t disappoint me.” Yunlong watched the seven red rays with a smile on his face. “I love them all.”
