Emerging from her Sea of Consciousness, Mu Yu first wrote a letter to Qian Daoliu summarizing the content of her second trial. Afterward, she headed to the main hall. Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, and the others were already waiting for her. Seeing her enter, Gu Rong immediately asked, "Xiao Yu, what was the content of your second trial?" Mu Yu looked at the three people before her, finding it difficult to put into words. Noticing Mu Yu's expression, Chen Xin quickly comforted her, "It's okay, no matter how difficult it is, our Xiao Yu can do it." "Complete the Black-level Four Trials on Sea God Island..." "Pfft..." Chen Xin spat out the tea he was drinking, looking at Mu Yu in shock.

Ignoring the ghost-like stares of the three, Mu Yu continued on her own, "The God of Space bestowed the second Soul Ring onto my Nightmare Beast Martial Soul, which is a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring. As for the third Soul Ring for the Puppet, I need to hunt it myself. I want to check near Sea God Island for suitable sea Soul Beasts to use as Soul Rings." Of course, the idea of using sea Soul Beasts for Soul Rings was proposed by Xi Ruo.

The three had just recovered from their surprise when Ning Fengzhi nodded, "Whatever you decide." "Okay, Uncle Ning, I plan to set off tomorrow." Ning Fengzhi showed a worried expression, "Xiao Yu, Sea God Island is very dangerous..." Mu Yu nodded, "I know." Of course, she knew. She was the one who came from that place, how could she not know? Gu Rong was silent for a moment, "Sea God Island is too dangerous. Xiao Yu, I'll go with you." Wait, what? Mu Yu looked at Gu Rong in shock, "Teacher, there's no need, I can do it myself..." Gu Rong slapped the back of Mu Yu's head, "Do what yourself? If I say I'm going with you, then I'm going with you."

The next day, the master and disciple set off. Before leaving, Ning Rongrong called out "Sister, Sister!" to Mu Yu, making Mu Yu determined to return soon to accompany Rongrong!

The journey was long, but with Bone Douluo present, a week's journey was shortened to just three days. Getting on the ship bound for Sea God Island, Mu Yu was about to rest when Gu Rong grabbed her to choose a Soul Ring.

Gu Rong saw that Mu Yu looked indifferent and unhurried, which angered him. Just as he was about to deliver a big slap to Mu Yu, she stopped him, "Teacher, don't hit me all the time!" Gu Rong said angrily, "You brat, you're not even worried about something as big as a Soul Ring? How can I not hit you?" "Teacher, let me tell you a secret!" Seeing Mu Yu's mysterious demeanor, Gu Rong became curious, "Tell me."

Mu Yu pointed to her necklace, "Teacher, this is my Soul Tool, its name is Mermaid's Tear..." "Crack!" Gu Rong excitedly broke a hole in the ship. He naturally knew about Mermaid's Tear; it was from the Mermaids. No wonder Mu Yu wanted sea Soul Beasts for her Soul Rings! "Little girl, you've been hiding quite a lot from me, both Soul Bones and Soul Tools." "Hehe, I just didn't have the time to tell you, Teacher."

The boatman on the side watched the Bone Douluo's extreme change in expression and began to wonder if that man had a problem with his brain.

After sailing for two hours, they reached Purple Pearl Island. The boatman refused to go any further and advised Gu Rong to turn back, saying that Sea God Island was not a place for ordinary people to enter. Gu Rong looked worried, "Little girl, how will we get across? I can fly over without any problem, but you..." Mu Yu knew what Gu Rong was thinking. If she had to fly, she would probably be exhausted to death.

Mu Yu seemed to remember something, "Teacher, let me tell you another secret." Gu Rong's eyelids twitched. How could she have so many secrets?! After preparing himself mentally, Gu Rong speechlessly uttered one word, "Say..." "Teacher, actually, I'm from Sea God Island..." Gu Rong looked astonished, his face clearly showing "I don't believe you."

Mu Yu scratched her head and took out the flute given to her by Sea Woman Douluo from her Soul Tool and began to play. Gu Rong silently watched his disciple perform. He believed it now; there was nothing his little disciple couldn't do...

After a while, a group of great white sharks rushed towards them. Gu Rong's expression changed, and just as he was about to pull Mu Yu away, he saw Mu Yu actually walk towards them. "Sister Xiao Bai!" The leader of the Demon Soul Great White Sharks leaped ashore and transformed into a girl, "My dear Xiao Yu! You still remember me, I'm so touched, sob sob sob!"

Gu Rong: ???

Watching the two, one big and one small, embrace, Gu Rong cleared his throat. Xiao Bai then noticed the other person present, "Who are you!" Xiao Bai protected Mu Yu behind her, cautiously staring at the man before her. "She's my teacher," Mu Yu introduced Gu Rong's identity.

Xiao Bai glanced at the man, said nothing, then turned to Mu Yu, asking with concern, "Xiao Yu, do you miss your sister? Our Xiao Yu has grown so big! Xiao Yu, why did you call your sister this time?" Mu Yu patiently answered Xiao Bai's questions one by one, "I missed you, sister, I really did~ This time it's for my second trial, I need to complete the Sea God's Black-level Four Trials, that's why I came."

Xiao Bai knew about Mu Yu's assessment and nodded, "Then I'll send you over!" "Okay!" Before leaving, Mu Yu seemed to remember something, turned to look at the gloomy Gu Rong, and guiltily beckoned him over. Then, the master and disciple rode the Demon Soul Great White Shark towards Sea God Island (What a privilege!).

Upon arriving at Sea God Island, Xiao Bai left first as she had something to do. Mu Yu led Gu Rong, familiar with the way, to the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar.

Gu Rong: ... I'm speechless, I shouldn't have come.

At this moment, a powerful force approached, "Raging Waves Fist!" Gu Rong instantly blocked in front of Mu Yu. Sensing that the opponent was also a Titled Douluo-level expert, Gu Rong's expression turned grim, "Ninth Soul Skill, Bone Transformation Divine Dragon!" The two Soul Skills collided, and Gu Rong also saw the opponent's appearance. After one exchange, the opponent stopped attacking, "Outsider, I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise..." Before his threatening words were finished, a cute female voice rang out, "Grandpa Sea Horse, do I need to leave quickly too?" Sea Horse Douluo was stunned and then saw the little fellow standing beside Gu Rong. Wait, wasn't this his Xiao Yu!

"Xiao Yu!" Sea Horse Douluo was about to rush forward to hug Mu Yu, but Gu Rong blocked him, "Didn't you just tell us to leave quickly?" He didn't want his own disciple to be hugged by someone else, and that person had just attacked him. Sea Horse Douluo looked embarrassed, "I'm truly sorry. I thought you were outsiders just now. You should know the rules of our Sea God Island."

Considering Sea Horse Douluo's good attitude... Gu Rong forgave him and moved aside. Sea Horse Douluo scooped up Mu Yu, "Xiao Yu, you're finally back. You don't know how much those guys miss you."

"Grandpa Sea Horse, I'm back this time to participate in the Black-level assessment..." "Ah!?" Sea Horse Douluo looked shocked, "How old are you! Are you sure about participating in the Black-level assessment!" Mu Yu said with some grievance, "That bad guy, the God of Space, this is the content of his second trial for me!"

Sea Horse Douluo was extremely anxious. His own little girl participating in the Black-level assessment? Wasn't that going to her death! "Xiao Yu, don't worry about the assessment for now. Come with me to find those old guys, and we'll figure something out together."

Seeing Sea Horse Douluo's nervous appearance, Mu Yu could only agree to go with him. Gu Rong saw that Mu Yu seemed safe on Sea God Island... and left with a flimsy excuse.

Gu Rong: The clown is me.

As soon as Sea Horse Douluo returned to the Sea Horse City Lord's mansion, he saw the Seven Sacred Pillar Guardians and Bo Saixi already waiting for him. Upon seeing the person behind Sea Horse Douluo, Sea Woman Douluo immediately rushed towards Mu Yu, "Xiao Yu, you're finally back!" She then hugged Xiao Yu and nuzzled her. The others also came forward.

Sea Horse Douluo was confused, "Why are you all here? Great Enshrined, did something happen?"

Bo Saixi walked over from behind, "It's about Xiao Yu's assessment. Xiao Yu's second trial for her Deity inheritance is to participate in the Sea God's Black-level Four Trials. Lord Sea God himself told me."

Sea Horse Douluo was stunned. Was that the Sea God's intention too? He looked at Mu Yu worriedly. Such a young child, sigh... Before he could finish thinking, Mu Yu's two Soul Rings, one black and one red, flashed and blinded his eyes. "Xiao Yu, this..." "Grandpas and Grandmas, I have Twin Martial Souls! This is my second Martial Soul, the God-Bestowed Martial Soul Nightmare Beast, with two Soul Rings. My first Martial Soul, Thousand Silk Puppet, is already level thirty and has two ten-thousand-year Soul Rings, but I haven't hunted for the third Soul Ring yet."

Sea Horse Douluo: ...

Sea Dragon Douluo: Twin Martial Souls!

Sea Delusion Douluo/Sea Ghost Douluo: Ten-thousand-year Soul Rings! / Hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings!

Sea Spear Douluo: Level thirty already!?

Sea Woman Douluo: ???

Bo Saixi: ...As expected of my Xiao Yu.

Facing a group of astonished Titled Douluo, Mu Yu was extremely calm. "Grandpa Sea Horse, quickly take me to the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar... I want to finish the assessment quickly and play here~" Everyone fell silent again. Why did it sound like the assessment was very easy when their Xiao Yu said it...

Sea Horse Douluo reluctantly brought Mu Yu back to the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar. As expected, it was the Black-level Four Trials. Bo Saixi sighed, "Then Xiao Yu, do you want to start the assessment now?" Mu Yu nodded.

A cold female voice rang out, "Sea God's Black-level Four Trials commence. First Trial: Cross the Sea God's Light and ascend the 108 steps of the forbidden area." Mu Yu thought for a moment, then turned and scanned the Titled Douluo present, finally settling her gaze on Sea Ghost Douluo, "Grandpa Sea Ghost, take me to the assessment location." Then, without further ado, she pounced into Sea Ghost Douluo's arms.

Sea Ghost Douluo was completely stunned. After a long period of self-digestion, he nodded and, holding Mu Yu, took to the sky and flew in one direction. The others followed behind. Upon arriving at the forbidden area steps, Sea Ghost Douluo had just put Mu Yu down and was about to instruct her on some matters when the child in front of him had already disappeared.

To everyone's bewildered expressions, Mu Yu ascended the steps of the Sea God's Light as if she were climbing stairs in her daily life, moving forward with a skip and a hop. In fact, her ease in climbing stairs was partly due to her childhood living on Sea God Island and Xi Ruo's power.

The process of climbing the stairs reminded Mu Yu of her previous life. She loved playing basketball, and during basketball training, the coach often made them climb stairs, which honed Mu Yu's ability to climb dozens of flights of stairs without even breathing heavily.

However, climbing 108 steps still took her more than ten minutes. "Qian Muyu, Sea God's Black-level First Trial completed. Reward: one God-Bestowed Spirit Ring."

She was quite satisfied with this reward, as it saved her the trouble of hunting for the Puppet's third Soul Ring.

The Titled Douluo were all pleasantly surprised and gathered around Mu Yu. Only Bo Saixi was surprised by the surname Qian when the reward was issued. Had her Xiao Yu gone out... and adopted the surname Qian? But the Qian family...

To celebrate Mu Yu's successful completion of the first trial, the Titled Douluo brought the best food from their respective cities to Mu Yu's room for a small party. Mu Yu was fed to her heart's content.

After everyone left, Bo Saixi came to find Mu Yu alone. "Xiao Yu, you're not asleep yet?" Mu Yu wasn't surprised to see Bo Saixi arrive; she had already guessed, "Great Enshrined, you're here about my name, aren't you?" Bo Saixi nodded, "Are you... acquainted with Qian Daoliu?"

Mu Yu sat opposite Bo Saixi and tentatively said, "I saved Qian Daoliu's granddaughter at the time. Later, I returned to Martial Soul Hall with him, and he recognized me as his granddaughter." She added, "He treated me very well."

Bo Saixi was silent for a moment, then sighed and didn't mention it further, "Xiao Yu, get some sleep. You have an assessment tomorrow." "Okay."

The next morning, the Sea God's second trial began. "Sea God's Black-level Second Trial: Kill a Demonic Orca, with a minimum age of ten thousand years. Time limit: one month."

Upon hearing about killing a Demonic Orca, all the Titled Douluo were somewhat surprised. They all looked troubled, "Demonic Orcas are usually in groups and rarely appear alone. Also, a ten-thousand-year-old Demonic Orca..."

They didn't want Mu Yu to take risks, but if they asked Xiao Bai and the others for help, there would definitely be heavy losses. At this moment, Mu Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'll do this myself, so you don't have to worry, Grandpa and Grandma."

Before she could finish, Sea Dragon Douluo interrupted, "In our hearts, you are like our own granddaughter. How can we not worry!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a giant mermaid appeared behind Mu Yu. All the Titled Douluo were shocked. Bo Saixi quickly shielded Mu Yu behind her, watching Xi Ruo cautiously.

"May I ask why the Mermaid King has come!" Bo Saixi was actually a little nervous, because this was an existence that even the Sea God himself dared not provoke, and she was just an Enshrined...

At this moment, Mu Yu, completely unfazed, ran out from behind Bo Saixi and headed straight for Xi Ruo. Bo Saixi was greatly alarmed, "Xiao Yu, come back quickly, it's dangerous." But before she could finish, she saw that Mu Yu not only didn't move away from Xi Ruo, but instead grabbed his tail and shouted, "Xi Ruo, shrink!"

Mu Yu's actions shocked everyone, but Xi Ruo was not angry. He transformed into human size and looked at Mu Yu with a smile, as if... seeking praise...

Bo Saixi was stunned and looked at Xiao Yu, asking, "Xiao Yu, this..." But Mu Yu just pointed to her own necklace, and everyone seemed to understand... Their Xiao Yu had found a treasure...

Xi Ruo spoke at this moment, "Everyone, don't be nervous. I won't harm Xiao Yu'er, after all... we have a contract. As for the Sea God's trial, I can help Xiao Yu'er." After speaking, he nodded slightly at everyone and, carrying Mu Yu, walked into the sea.

Up to this point, Bo Saixi and the others were still bewildered. Their Xiao Yu actually knew him, and seemed to be very familiar with him... Who on Sea God Island didn't know Xi Ruo's might? Not to mention Sea God Island, with Xi Ruo around, practically no one on the entire continent could contend with Mu Yu.

When they entered the sea, Xi Ruo casually grabbed one of his subordinates to be Mu Yu's mount.

Subordinate:? King, why are you like this!

They arrived at the sea area where the Demonic Orca was located without any obstruction. Xi Ruo directly said to Mu Yu, "Xiao Yu, shall I get that hundred-thousand-year-old Demonic Orca King for you? It can serve as your Soul Ring."

Mu Yu fell silent, "But I just added a third Soul Ring to my Puppet..."

Xi Ruo thought for a moment, "What's your level now?" "Thirty-three, why?" Suddenly, blue light emanated from Xi Ruo's surroundings, enveloping Mu Yu. "I'll use my Soul Power to stimulate you. You just need to meditate quietly, and you might be able to level up quickly. Combined with hunting the Demonic Orca King later, you should be able to reach level forty."

Mu Yu, with a face full of surprise, gave Xi Ruo a thumbs-up.

While Mu Yu was meditating, Xi Ruo secretly locked onto the Demonic Orca King. Heh heh, he had long disliked that big fish, and it sometimes bullied his own people. Today, he would let that stinky orca know that there were bigger fish in the sea!

While Xi Ruo was mercilessly complaining about the Demonic Orca King, Mu Yu was not having an easy time. The power Xi Ruo injected into her body was extremely cold, making her suffer terribly. Rapid leveling was very damaging to the body. If it weren't for the immense temptation of the Demonic Orca King... she wouldn't have come.

Three hours passed like this. She felt a powerful force perfectly integrate into her body. She slowly opened her eyes, a faint blue light emanating from them.

She felt that her observation of the sea had become more thorough. But before she could observe further, she saw a giant orca attacking her. She quickly jumped up, only to realize that she had been sitting directly on the surface of the water.

Mu Yu was shocked and instinctively attacked the orca, "Second Soul Skill! Burst!"

Demonic Orca: Damn it, just now a great mermaid scattered us, and now I've just arrived here and been attacked... Is there any justice!

Looking at the Demonic Orca floating on the water without breathing, Mu Yu stood on it, looking helplessly at the surrounding orcas fleeing in all directions.

At this moment, Xi Ruo's loud voice came, "Xiao Yu, come here quickly!" Mu Yu looked over and saw an injured Demonic Orca appear before her. This one was clearly stronger than the others.

Mu Yu leaped forward and landed on the Demonic Orca King. The Demonic Orca King attacked Mu Yu without hesitation. It couldn't defeat the Mermaid King, so how could it possibly want a mere human to be its Soul Ring!

Mu Yu was not afraid. Since Xi Ruo was nearby, she treated it as playing, and incidentally tested the second Soul Skill of her second Martial Soul.

"Second Soul Skill! Dark Mist!" Mu Yu used her second Soul Skill, and the surroundings were immediately filled with mist. Creatures within the mist couldn't see their surroundings clearly. In fact, it was similar to the mist from Xie Yue and Hu Liena's Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

The Demonic Orca King also couldn't see its surroundings and could only passively be chased and beaten by Mu Yu. It was enraged, and the surrounding seawater suddenly solidified. Mu Yu was stunned; this should be its skill.

She leaped off it, "First Soul Skill, Parasite." A giant puppet appeared, hovering in the air and holding Mu Yu. When the Demonic Orca's mirror image was no longer effective, it landed again.

Mu Yu's strategy was mainly about attrition. Since she wasn't in a hurry, she slowly wore down its stamina, and when it was exhausted, she would kill it with one blow.

Beside her, Xi Ruo was reading Mu Yu's mind. He thought about what he would do later. He didn't know, but when he heard it, he was startled. He looked at the evil-looking Mu Yu in horror. This little girl was not simple. She was so evil at such a young age. He was a little scared. What if she stewed him one day...

Sensing Xi Ruo's gaze, Mu Yu looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong?" Xi Ruo shivered all over and forced a smile, "It's nothing..." Mu Yu turned her head in confusion again, preparing for the Demonic Orca King's next attack.

"Third Soul Skill, Invasion." The puppet's third Soul Skill was to probe the enemy's memory and transform into the person the enemy feared most. The more the enemy feared, the stronger the puppet itself became.

What the Demonic Orca King feared most was the Sea God. The puppet transformed into the Sea God's appearance, startling the Demonic Orca King. The Sea God, why would he appear here? A chill ran through its entire body. Severely wounded by Mu Yu, it didn't notice anything amiss. Under its extreme fear, it was killed by the puppet with one blow.

Mu Yu landed in the waterproof barrier created by Xi Ruo and began to absorb the red Soul Ring. At this moment, Xi Ruo approached the tail of the Demonic Orca King and took out a Soul Bone that emitted a faint red light. He walked to Mu Yu's side, idly playing with bubbles condensed by Soul Power.

After the sun set, Mu Yu slowly opened her eyes. She had to admit that absorbing a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring was quite difficult... Before she could rest, Xi Ruo slowly floated over, "Here, absorb the Soul Bone it produced as well."

Mu Yu's forehead was covered in black lines: I'm exhausted.

She reluctantly took the thigh bone and continued to sit on the ground to absorb it.

At dawn the next day, Mu Yu finally finished absorbing the Soul Ring and Soul Bone, and her Soul Power had broken through to level forty-one. She stretched and turned to look at Xi Ruo. Xi Ruo felt a little creeped out by her gaze, "Xiao Yu... is there anything else?" Mu Yu nodded, "How do I get back?"

Xi Ruo was stunned and directly grabbed a fish swimming freely nearby. "You, take her to Sea God Island." He then placed Mu Yu on the big fish and winked at Mu Yu with a look of seeking praise. Mu Yu speechlessly gave him a thumbs-up, "You! Are! Amazing!" After Mu Yu spoke, Xi Ruo, satisfied, returned to the necklace.

Upon returning to Sea God Island, the few Enshrined silently looked at Mu Yu's dazzling red Soul Ring. Bo Saixi quickly organized her thoughts and finally sighed, secretly nudging Sea Dragon Douluo.

Sea Dragon Douluo:?

Bo Saixi gestured for him to speak. He thought for two seconds and spoke with difficulty, "Xiao Yu, you are truly amazing!"

Mu Yu looked at Sea Dragon Douluo speechlessly and gave a fake smile that couldn't be more fake, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Everyone: ...

Finally, an electronic voice broke the awkward scene, "Qian Muyu has completed the Sea God's Black Tier Second Trial. Due to assistance from others during the trial, the reward is a five-level increase in Soul Power. The Sea God's Black Tier Third Trial will commence in three months."

Mu Yu's eyes widened. A five-level increase! So... she was now level forty-six? Mu Yu calculated, she was not yet eight years old... This was too heaven-defying...

The Sea God's Third Trial would descend in three months. Perhaps it was because they felt she was too heaven-defying, and they specifically wanted her to take a break... She decided! For these three months, she would absolutely not cultivate, and would just slack off!

So, for these three months, Mu Yu's schedule was to go to Sea Horse City to find food, then go to Sea Star City to find food, go to Sea Woman City to buy clothes, go to Sea Dragon City to buy novelties, go to Sea Delusion City and Sea Ghost City to play around, and finally go to Sea Spear City to rest and sleep.

In the God Realm, the God of Space stood beside the Sea God and fell into silence. I told you to take a break, not to relax yourself so much!

At this moment, an uninvited guest walked in from outside the Sea God Palace. The Sea God looked displeasantly in that direction. He was a little stunned and gestured for the God of Space to look over there.

The Asura God didn't stand on ceremony, walking straight to the Sea God and the God of Space. "Two, long time no see. Shall we three get together today?" The Sea God said speechlessly, "It's reasonable for me and the God of Space to get together, but since when did our relationship become so good that we can have a gathering?" The Asura God wasn't annoyed by the Sea God's mockery. He turned to the God of Space and said, "God of Space, I heard you have a very powerful successor recently? I heard they are an unparalleled genius. Why don't you introduce them to me?"

"I understand now. So the Asura God is after the God of Space's successor," the Sea God said, blocking the God of Space and speaking sarcastically to the Asura God. The Asura God glared at the Sea God resentfully, "Poseidon..." Before he could finish, the God of Space spoke, "If you're interested in my successor, then I'll tell you, no way!" After he finished speaking, the Sea God unceremoniously kicked the Asura God out. He returned to the great hall and high-fived the God of Space.

As soon as they decided to slack off, three months passed. Mu Yu's strength hadn't improved at all. Instead, she had gained some weight, which, of course, made her even cuter...

"Sea God's Black-level Third Trial: Complete Tidal Body Refinement in the Raging Waves Desperate Situation, for at least four hours daily, for one year."

After learning the content of the Sea God's third trial, the surrounding Titled Douluo's expressions turned grim. Their Xiao Yu was only eight years old! To make an eight-year-old child complete Tidal Body Refinement was a bit excessive for the Sea God... but they dared not question him.

Mu Yu, however, didn't care. Wasn't it just being tied to an iron pillar for eight hours a day? It didn't seem that difficult, just potentially a bit boring.

Amidst the discussions of the Douluo, Mu Yu precisely found Bo Saixi in the crowd and took her hand.

"Grandma Bo Saixi, can you take me to the trial location?"

Bo Saixi looked helplessly at the little girl's excited face... They were all worried sick about her here, and she was practically bouncing with excitement, as if they were taking her out to play.

Bo Saixi sighed softly, took Mu Yu's hand, and they soared into the air. Mu Yu couldn't help but sigh that flying was great. She'd have to ask Fifth Grandpa to accompany her to hunt a Soul Bone with a flying skill later; she was sure he'd agree.

Upon arriving at the Raging Waves Desperate Situation, a silver pillar appeared before Mu Yu.

"Deep Sea Sinking Silver!" she exclaimed in surprise. She hadn't expected the pillars on Sea God Island to be made of such precious material!

Bo Saixi looked at Mu Yu in surprise. "Xiao Yu, you actually recognize Deep Sea Sinking Silver?"

Mu Yu didn't forget the opportunity to curry favor with Qian Daoliu in front of Grandma Bo Saixi. After all, if the Martial Soul Hall and Sea God Island joined forces... let alone the Clear Sky Sect, no one on the entire continent would be their match!

"Grandpa showed me all of this. Grandpa also told me about many precious materials and said he'd make me a weapon out of Deep Sea Sinking Silver someday!" The last sentence was something Qian Daoliu hadn't said, but... if she brought it up, perhaps Qian Daoliu would really get it for her.

Bo Saixi didn't speak, silently tying Mu Yu to the iron pillar. She did feel a bit favorably towards Qian Daoliu internally, but not much.

Standing on the Deep Sea Sinking Silver, enduring the fierce pounding of the waves, a normal person would have long since given up. But Mu Yu acted as if nothing was wrong. She was even... a bit sleepy. She looked at Bo Saixi helplessly, who thought she couldn't hold on any longer.

"Xiao Yu, how are you? If you can't take it anymore, just tell me."

"It's fine... Grandma Bo Saixi, I'm a little sleepy. Can I sleep for a while?"

"..."

Bo Saixi fell silent again. How could her Xiao Yu manage to think about sleeping in such a dangerous place without batting an eye? When she looked up again to speak to Mu Yu, she saw that Mu Yu had already fallen asleep.

"..."

She silently waited for the time to end, gently took Mu Yu off the pillar, changed her clothes with care, and handed her over to the Sea Woman Douluo before leaving.

The next day, Mu Yu woke up refreshed, leaving the Titled Douluo speechless. They had been worried about her all day!

Returning to the Raging Waves Desperate Situation again, Mu Yu stood on the pillar without any reaction, just standing there bored. Xi Ruo seemed to sense her boredom and began chatting with Mu Yu in the Sea of Consciousness.

Discovering the joy of chatting, Xi Ruo started a "DiDi chat" activity every day. Although it seemed to be a bit different from the "DiDi dragon-hailing" next door... it was okay, perhaps one day in the future, she could have Xi Ruo start a "DiDi fishing" service?

Mu Yu had never found any trial easier than Tidal Body Refinement. Every day, she just stood there, either sleeping or chatting. Even the Sea God in the sky began to wonder if the God of Space should give Mu Yu the Sea God's Black-level Six Trials...

For a year, the same experience, the same feeling every day, bored Mu Yu to tears. But finally, the last day arrived! A day to be celebrated!

Mu Yu skillfully tied herself to the pillar and immediately fell asleep.

Halfway through her sleep, she felt something constantly bothering her mind, disturbing her daydream. She opened her eyes in anger and looked around. No one was there?

She entered the Sea of Consciousness again and saw the God of Space nuzzling Xi Ruo's face, sitting on his throne in a very seductive pose. It was a bit like... Chrysanthemum Pass...

She dismissed the terrifying thought and angrily walked behind the God of Space's throne, kicking him off. The God of Space didn't react in time. Just as he was about to make contact with Xi Ruo's lips, Xi Ruo slapped him aside with a flick of her fish tail.

God of Space: ?

Mu Yu was probably the first person in this world to kick a Sovereign off his throne...

The Sea God's Third Trial, although the process was easy, truly improved her physical fitness!

"Sea God's Third Trial passed. Reward: 10% increase in physical fitness, 3 levels of Soul Power increase."

Mu Yu was completely stunned. So she was now... level forty-nine! She was still just a little baby over nine years old!

"Sea God's Black-level Fourth Trial: Choose any two out of the seven Saints for a one-on-one duel, lasting for the time it takes an incense stick to burn."

The seven Titled Douluo suddenly became energized! While they couldn't help Xiao Yu with other trials, this one was different! They suddenly felt capable again!

Putting Bo Saixi aside, Mu Yu could already see the thoughts of several of her grandpas and grandmas. She looked at the seven Titled Douluo with a disapproving expression.

"Grandpas and grandmas... if you go easy on me, and the Sea God deducts my reward, hehe..."

The seven Titled Douluo stiffened, looking at Mu Yu with wronged expressions. Weren't they just trying to make it easier for the little one...

Mu Yu "tactfully" rejected the good intentions of the seven Titled Douluo and began the fourth trial.

The seven Douluo stood in a line. Sea Dragon Douluo stepped forward first. "Xiao Yu, who do you plan to... duel?"

Mu Yu looked around. At first... she should pick a weaker one...

"I'll duel Grandpa Sea Dragon first!"

Xi Ruo, watching from the Soul Tool: ??? Didn't you say you'd pick the weakest one?

Sea Dragon Douluo was a little surprised, but more so eager to try. You know, he really wanted to try dueling his little granddaughter!

The surrounding Titled Douluo retreated dozens of meters. They didn't want to be accidentally injured by Sea Dragon Douluo's moves.

Mu Yu was speechless. They had treated her like their precious darling just a moment ago... and now they were running away...

"No choice, she looked seriously at Sea Dragon Douluo, 'Grandpa Sea Dragon, I'm ready!'"

Sea Dragon Douluo also stretched his muscles, then lit an incense stick and struck it next to a tree. The incense began to burn, signaling the start of the match, but neither of them made any rash moves.

In the end, Sea Dragon Douluo couldn't stand the quiet and was the first to use his First Soul Skill to test Mu Yu. Mu Yu was waiting for Sea Dragon Douluo to make a move.

"Third Soul Skill, Parasite."

With that, Sea Dragon Douluo felt a jolt of dizziness, and a sense of fear suddenly appeared.

While Sea Dragon Douluo was stunned, Mu Yu quickly approached him. "First Soul Skill, Beast Claw."

Sea Dragon Douluo was, after all, a Titled Douluo. He immediately realized Mu Yu's intention and turned to defend.

At this moment, Mu Yu smiled faintly. "Fourth Soul Skill, Thread Control!"

Before the surrounding people could react, the true form of the Puppet appeared, with seven or eight threads extending from it, connecting to Mu Yu's hands.

Her Fourth Soul Skill allowed her to swap positions with the Puppet. She used the threads to control her opponent. For Soul Masters with a lower level than her, she could control them for 6 seconds, and for those with a higher level, for 3 seconds.

Sea Dragon Douluo was startled. He was indeed getting old; he had been tricked by his little granddaughter. It seemed he had to get serious too.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Dragon Scale Armor."

Seeing Sea Dragon Douluo getting serious, the surrounding Titled Douluo all took a step back in unison. To be honest, they were quite curious about how Mu Yu would handle this.

Mu Yu was not flustered at all. "Second Soul Skill, Dark Mist."

She planned to use the Dark Mist, just like when she fought the Demonic Orca King last time, to wear him down.

Sea Dragon Douluo was now back to being passive. He seemed to understand why Mu Yu could hunt the Demonic Orca King so easily...

He had originally thought Xi Ruo had helped, but now it seemed his own granddaughter was truly formidable.

However, for him, a Titled Douluo, breaking through the Dark Mist was only a matter of time.

But he didn't have much time. He soared into the air, quickly leaving the range of the Dark Mist.

Mu Yu was stunned. How could she have forgotten that Sea Dragon Douluo could fly?

"Little girl, your strength is good, but you're a bit careless."

Mu Yu pouted. She definitely couldn't beat Sea Dragon Douluo in the air. She made the Dark Mist dissipate, and Sea Dragon Douluo returned to the ground.

A new round of battle began, but half the time had already passed. She just needed to hold on for fifteen more minutes.

Sea Dragon Douluo sighed. Just as he was about to go easy on her, he saw Mu Yu's eyes turn red.

"Slaughter Domain!" The surrounding atmosphere instantly turned cold.

Several people, including Bo Saixi, were greatly surprised. This domain gave them an extremely strong sense of pressure, and their intuition told them this domain was not simple.

Although the Slaughter God's Domain was powerful, the gap in their levels couldn't be denied. Mu Yu was still below level fifty. Even with the Slaughter God's Domain, she couldn't contend with the level ninety-seven Sea Dragon Douluo.

But before they could think further, a red Soul Bone on Mu Yu's right leg lit up. "Demonic Orca King's Broken Fang Slash!"

Sea Dragon Douluo's eyes almost popped out. How could he have imagined that the trash Demonic Orca King would also drop a Soul Bone!

Just as he moved to block, a dark green Soul Bone on Mu Yu's left leg lit up. A wind blade was hidden within the red light blade. It wasn't discovered until the wind blade was less than a meter away from Sea Dragon Douluo.

He didn't have time to react and shouted helplessly, "I surrender!"

Upon hearing this, Sea Spear Douluo quickly threw his spear to block the wind blade.

The first one-on-one match ended with Mu Yu's victory.

Mu Yu proudly stood in the center, surrounded by the Titled Douluo.

Sea Woman Douluo excitedly hugged Mu Yu. "Xiao Yu, was that wind blade at the end also a Soul Bone?"

Mu Yu nodded proudly. "Yes, it's the left leg bone of the Gale Twin-Headed Wolf."

Bo Saixi's eyelashes trembled. "Did he give this to you too?"

Mu Yu knew "he" referred to Qian Daoliu. She shook her head. "This was a gift from his granddaughter, who is also my sister." Actually, it was as good as Qian Daoliu giving it to her.

The other Pillar Douluo looked confused. Sea Horse Douluo asked doubtfully, "What 'he'? Who is he?"

Bo Saixi sighed. "Qian Daoliu."

Everyone was shocked. Qian Daoliu? Wasn't he from the Martial Soul Hall? What was their little granddaughter's relationship with someone from the Martial Soul Hall?

Seeing Bo Saixi being so direct, Mu Yu felt she had nothing to hide from her grandfathers and grandmothers. She told the Titled Douluo everything.

"After leaving Sea God Island, I went to the Star Dou Great Forest. There, I accidentally saved Qian Daoliu's granddaughter, Qian Renxue. Later, Qian Daoliu brought me back to the Martial Soul Hall and recognized me as his granddaughter."

Everyone was a bit angry. "That Qian Daoliu! He actually abducted our Xiao Yu!"

Seeing her grandfathers and grandmothers getting angry, Mu Yu quickly continued.

"Later, he provided me with a very good cultivation environment. Hunting for Soul Rings was also with their help. Actually, Grandpa treated me very well, like his own granddaughter."

After hearing this, although they felt the pain of their granddaughter being "stolen," they couldn't deny that if Qian Daoliu truly treated Mu Yu as his own granddaughter, then Mu Yu could basically walk sideways on the continent.

"Later, Grandpa took me to find a master."

Hearing the word "master," Sea Horse Douluo became curious. The person he met last time, who called himself Mu Yu's teacher, was indeed extraordinary. He wondered who that person was.

"I had the honor of sparring with Xiao Yu's teacher last time. I still don't know who Xiao Yu's teacher is?"

The other Titled Douluo also looked at Mu Yu curiously. Judging by Sea Horse Douluo's expression, he was very satisfied with Mu Yu's teacher.

"My teacher is one of the elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Bone Douluo, Gu Rong."
