Of the tens of thousands of prospective Ocean Dragon Martial School students who managed to break through to the Main Gate, only around two thousand remained, including Wang Lin Sie and Chin Hong.
Han Sie's group was seen successfully entering the gate, he was also accompanied by around ten people who were declared successful in entering the gate.
Elsewhere in the Dragon Ocean sect building, the Sect's higher-ups along with other God King cultivators continued to supervise this exam process, especially for Phang Cui Lin who observed the figures of Wang Lin Sie and Chin Hong where the two teenage girls were always accompanied by Cun Ek which didn't take long to penetrate and arrive at the main gate of the Ocean Dragon Martial School.
Cun Ek casually approached his two friends,
"Sisters, it's time for us to see the second test," said Cun Ek to Wang Lin Sie and Chin Hong.
“Where is Aliong? Did he not get away?” Wang Lin Sie asked.
"He's outside, he's taking shelter under a shady tree," answered Cun Ek flatly.
“Does he not mean to take this exam?” Chin Hong asked.
"Whether he wants to or can, he's just an ordinary kid," answered Wang Lin Sie.
"Brother Cun Ek, why do you want to tie yourself to an ordinary human boy like Aliong? "What's more, when it comes to tying up brotherhood, isn't that just your burden?" asked Chin Hong again with a surprised face.
Cun Ek was a little surprised by this teenage girl's question, he didn't expect that the noble girl would care about him, because this question could be considered a form of concern for him, a boy who had no one in this world except a mother didn't dare to come back. to his own homeland, and Cun Ek took a deep breath and said,
"I don't have any siblings anymore, I'm just a stranger in this world and Aliong is the best sibling I have, in fact I really love him, including his grandmother, they give me sincere love," answered Cun Ek.
The two teenage girls just nodded, for the two of them would never understand what was in Cun Ek's heart, where Cun Ek had experienced difficult times that were rarely experienced by ordinary boys, since birth, he had experienced the cruelty of the cultivation world which resulted in His perspective exceeds the perspective of boys in general.
There was a voice that echoed in every prospective student's ears,
"For prospective students who have successfully passed through the Main Gate, you are welcome to enter the building in front of you and in the room, please choose the entrance that has been provided," said a voice that echoed in front of the prospective students, in front of them all stood a building. which has a large door about twelve meters high and about four meters wide consisting of two door leaves.
So the participants flocked to the door, while Cun Ek held back his two friends,
"Be patient, let the others approach the door," said Cun Ek to Chin Hong and Wang Lin Sie.
Both of them obediently stopped their footsteps, several groups of participants were seen trying to open the giant door using their own physical strength and cultivation, but the giant door did not move, some even suggested moving in groups and uniting their strength, the first group tried with their strength they opened the door, some even tried with their strength to break the door which looked like it was made of ordinary wood, but the door didn't break, it didn't even sway, as a group they took turns, each group opened the door but none of them succeeded. .
The group of teenagers from Yang In City led by Han Sie then came forward, he said, "Must your soul power, regulate your breath and close your eyes!" Han Sie's orders to his group came in a soft, half-whisper, obediently they all followed Han Sie's instructions, and then Han Sie stepped towards the door and walked as usual without opening his eyes, and then together with the group he led walked in through the wooden door which was opens automatically by itself.
The Yang In City youth group immediately entered and the door closed again, this caused shock for the other participants.
Not all participants who passed were groups consisting of two or more people, many participants who passed through the main gate were individual prospective students and some of them were confused to see Han Sie's group who could open the door.
“Should we form groups? So that the door will be opened" is the question in the hearts of those who passed individually.
Cun Ek whispered in Wang Lin Sie and Chin Hong's ears,
"Mustrate your soul strength, breathe regularly and then we step into the door," said Cun Ek to his friends.
So the three people walked in parallel steps, Cun Ek with Wang Lin Sie and Chin Hong towards the giant door and the door opened automatically, when Cun Ek and his two friends approached the door and they all entered and the door closed again as before.
Many participants did not succeed in trying to analyze the incident, some of them easily understood what had to be done, but many still did not understand because the actions of the two groups who managed to enter the door did not show their actions openly, and not all participants had the power of perception. soul or mastery of high soul power Martial Techniques, so it was a very difficult job to do.
Meanwhile, Han Sie's group and Cun Ek's group who were in the room saw in front of them thousands of doors of various sizes and various colors, the smallest measuring one meter by one meter and the largest measuring four meters by ten meters.
"From here we will separate, you can choose the door you like, and I think these doors are the second test, I don't know what's behind the doors," said Han Sie to the members of his group.
Likewise, Cun Ek gave instructions to his two friends,
"Remember, be alert and don't be careless, the possibility behind these doors is a test of the cultivation strength of each of us, our soul strength and martial strength must be in harmony so that we are always alert," said Cun Ek again.
In fact, these doors are teleportation doors, where they will be sent to a place and then the participants will face several opponents in the form of mystical beasts or humans who have a cultivation level one level below the strength of each participant's cultivation level but in large numbers. , in this case to test their determination and ability to survive attacks that test the limits of the strength of each prospective student participant.
Cun Ek didn't immediately choose the door available in front of him, he only accompanied his two best friends, he just wanted to make sure that his friends could pass this test, and he invited his two female friends to choose, so Chin Hong chose the pink door and Wang Lin Sie Choose a green door with almost the same size, namely a door measuring 1 meter by 2 meters for both.
In front of Chin Hong stretched out a wide field covered with various kinds of flower plants of various colors which were very beautiful in his eyes, and the field gave off a very fragrant smell, with a happy face Chin Hong saw the beauty he saw in front of him, but then he realizing that something was wrong, the fragrant smell was not meant to be inhaled, because he felt his head was getting dizzy, he then mobilized his cultivation power,
Doummmm….!!!!
There was an explosion in his body and it erupted, Chin Hong's body shook trying to maintain his consciousness, but the fragrant smell was already affecting his mind, little by little his eyes became blurry, and Chin Hong tried hard to stay conscious, now he knew that behind the beauty in his eyes was something dangerous, Chin Hong then mobilized his soul power, with his soul perception he was helped a little, his self-awareness was able to persist even slowly but surely he could see clearly that in front of him was a grassland with the corpses of various mystical beasts scattered about, it turned out to be smelly This is produced by the scent of a mystical beast carcass that emits purple smoke, his sense of smell is manipulated by his sense of sight.
This is where Chin Hong finally understood the cause of the poisonous vapor attacks produced from the corpses of thousands of dead Mystic Beasts.
Chin Hong then took the attitude of cultivating, persistently and never giving up he exerted all his cultivation strength while not forgetting to also mobilize the strength of his soul. and this continued for several hours, little by little he was able to overcome the disturbance which caused him to almost lose consciousness.
Chin Hong's condition of cultivation lasted all day, after feeling that his consciousness had recovered, Chin Hong regulated his breathing,
"Hm..., I didn't expect a test like this, what happens if I'm not alert? "It's true what Brother Cun Ek said, that we must always be alert, not everything that looks beautiful to the eye turns out to be a deadly trap behind it," thought Chin Hong in his mind.
"Ha ha ha….! "To think I would find such a delicious meal, a small woman like this, how crisp her bones are, and that means how tender her meat is," a voice issued by a tall, big man whose appearance was very scary, because the person's face was covered by growing hair. wild on his face, only the eyes and nose were visible which indicated that he was a human figure. His hair was dreadlocked like it had never been washed and hung down to cover the person's stomach, who only had a piece of animal skin covering his sensitive parts.
Chin Hong was very surprised to see this human form,
"Who are you? Are you human?” Chin Hong snapped while steeling himself, because this person's appearance shook his soul and was indeed very scary.
"Who am I? I don't even know who I am, I'm hungry…., very hungry… ha ha ha…! and you are my food," answered the man with his eyes rolling and glancing in all directions.
"Are you very hungry? What if I help you find food that is more than just you eating me until you are full and in return you let me go?" Chin Hong said to persuade the person.
“Help me? How to? "I have killed all the animals here for my food, and I am still very hungry," said the tall man.
"I have a way so that you can eat and be full, I will even teach you to eat the most delicious food that you have never tasted," persuaded Chin Hong again.
"Ha ha ha... I like it, if you trick me it's not too late for me to kill you," said the man again.
Chin Hong then approached a corpse of a mystical beast that looked still fresh, he took the knife that had been at his waist, by exerting a little cultivation energy, he quickly cut the corpse of the mystical beast into several pieces and cleaned it by removing the thick skin. on the animal so that what was left was the reddish flesh, then gathered it in a place, he then took the salt and spices which he always carried in the sky bag which he always tied around his waist, and washed the fresh meat, saying,
"Collect the dry wood," said Chin Hong giving orders to the man, the man quickly collected the wood which was scattered around him, after that, Chin Hong called to the man,
"Come here, and see how I make a dish that you will use to satisfy your hunger," said Chin Hong, as he showed me how to coat the fresh meat of the mystical beast with salt accompanied by the spices that nomadic cultivators always equip. .
"Use your strength, and make fire in the pile of dry wood that you collected earlier," said Chin Hong, and the man looked at Chin Hong with wide eyes. He still didn't understand what the connection between the fresh meat and the wood in front of him was. just what Chin Hong had cleaned made his hunger very intense, "I'm hungry, give me that food, quickly!", he said.
"Be patient, I will give you the most delicious food you have ever tasted, remember our agreement," said Chin Hong, strengthening himself and speaking firmly even though in his heart he was horrified by the man's figure.
Remembering that he had given his promise to Chin Hong, he then mobilized his cultivation energy, so a beam of light shot through the pile of dry wood and burned it, while Chin Hong took pieces of meat that had been smeared with cooking spices and stabbed them lengthwise. on a fairly large piece of meat. then put it on the edge of the fire which burns the pile of dry wood.
"Now you have to wait patiently, remember patience is the key to getting the best, as well as your hunger, you will be satisfied with the delicious food you will eat, remember to be patient!" Chin Hong said.
The man was actually impatient, but Chin Hong firmly said that there was an agreement where he would satisfy his hunger, and the man was willing to wait.
In the next few hours, the smell of grilled meat was very appetizing,
"Hmmm..., sedaaapppp..., really sedaaappp..." The scary man was getting impatient as he inhaled the aroma of the meat.
Chin Hong then took another piece of meat and placed it around the fire that was still burning. He didn't let the person touch the meat that was already roasted, because the amount of meat that Chin Hong cleaned was actually very large, because there were so many mystical beast corpses scattered around. In fact, the size of the mystical beasts that were killed was on average three times the size of the Windmill Horse, thus the amount of meat to be smoked was very large and could last for several days.
"Now you can take the first piece of meat that I lifted earlier, and I want to know what you think," said Chin Hong to the man.
The man quickly took a piece of freshly cooked meat that had been seasoned and salted, then bit it with a big bite, when his tongue tasted the taste of the meat, his eyes closed as if enjoying the grilled meat of the mystical beast he had just killed, he had previously eaten the meat of this animal. but it was raw, and he felt bad, so he looked for another mystical beast and the place was soon filled with various corpses of the mystical beasts he had killed, but he only bit a little of the meat of the animal he killed, so he was very hungry because of the taste of raw meat it was very unpleasant on his tongue, different after the meat was grilled by Chin Hong and seasoned, the taste was very different and very delicious, really arousing his appetite.
"Very delicious..., very delicious..., I have to finish the other meat," said the man with eyes full of enjoyment.
Chin Hong allowed the scary man to satisfy his hunger, he deliberately cleaned all the scattered corpses of the mystical beasts into pieces of meat that were piled up very much, and everything was given spices and salt, actually the meat turned into smoked meat that could last for several days to satisfy the person's hunger.
"I have fulfilled my obligations from the agreement between us, and I have shown you a way so that you don't go hungry again, I have also prepared food for you that you will eat every day, I have even shown you a way so that one day you will enjoy the most delicious food, it's time for you to let me go," said Chin Hong again.
The man was silent for a moment and stopped chewing his food, "Okay, you can go," said the man.
Suddenly, Chin Hong's eyes suddenly turned blurry, now what was in front of him was a very large room, then he heard a remark echoing in his ears,
"Little girl you passed, you are the first to come out of the Illusion Manipulation Space, you wait for your other comrades, cultivate and rest," said the voice.
Chin Hong realized that he was now in a large room like a meeting hall with very high walls, he then controlled his breathing and cultivated as instructed by the voice.
