Strange Trial Brand

The patterns on the Sacred Pillar were also stained black and continued to climb upwards, eventually covering the entire pillar.

Then, six black square beams of light shot out from the pillar.

The first screen flashed with golden text, making the assessment content clearly visible, while the other five screens were much dimmer.

Sea Horse Douluo was somewhat taken aback, and a hint of pity flashed across his gaze as he looked at Chen Xin. "It's actually the Black-level Six-Trial, two more than I did back then. I don't know whether to say you have great potential or that you're just unlucky."

Chen Xin asked, "What is the Black-level Six-Trial? Could you explain it to me?"

Sea Horse Douluo said, "The trials set by Lord Sea God are divided into levels, and the difficulty varies greatly depending on the level. Just like the color classification of our Soul Ring, they are arranged from low to high. First is the white-level trial, then the Yellow-level, Purple-level, Black Level, red-level, and finally the God-level Trial, which has only appeared once in ten thousand years."

"The Lord Sea God will bestow different trials upon different people."

"And the Black Level test has the highest mortality rate among these tests!"

After saying that, he sighed, "If it weren't for Lord Yu Mingxiao, I might have thought for my entire life that the Red-level Trial was the highest level, until he obtained the God-level test."

"God-level assessment?"

Chen Xin raised an eyebrow and pressed on, "What reward will I receive if I pass the God-level Trial?"

Sea Horse Douluo said, "I'm not too clear about this either, since Lord Yu Mingxiao directly declined this God-level assessment back then. But judging from the High Priestess's words, it seems he is qualified to take over the Sea God's Godhood."

Yu Xiaogang had just recovered when he heard that Yu Mingxiao originally had a chance to become a god. His vision went black on the spot, and he almost fainted.

Although becoming a god has always been just a legend, this is still a recognition of Big Brother by Sea God Island. It's the first God-level assessment in ten thousand years!

Even now, even if no one pays attention to him, the sensitive and insecure Yu Xiaogang still feels that everyone is secretly observing him.

"He actually refused the God-level Trial?" Chen Xin asked, puzzled. "Yu Mingxiao is perfectly fine, why would he decline?"

"I don't know either." Sea Horse Douluo shook his head. "Since you've already accepted the assessment, go wait to the side. There are others who will be assessed later."

Chen Xin was full of doubts, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she could only step aside and wait.

Next was Gu Rong. Sea Horse Douluo followed the same steps, followed by six black curtains, which greatly surprised him.

In fact, the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island's assessment only looks at the examinee's current potential. As long as the examinee is not too old, even if they come in middle age, it won't be a big problem.

After all, the locals of Sea God Island all take the test at the age of eighteen, and Tang San and his group of seven were even in their early twenties.

Although Chen Xin and Gu Rong are relatively old, their potential has not yet been exhausted. It is quite normal for them to become Super Douluo and obtain the Black-level Six-Trial in the future.

Next up was Ye Renxin, who obtained the Black-level Four-Trial.

Dugu Bo also obtained the Black-level Six-Trial.

When it was Yu Tianjing's turn, he received the Black-level Four-Trial.

Yu Xiaojing, also a direct disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, only received Purple-level Three-Trial, which made him feel somewhat aggrieved.

He felt that his potential in this life was limited, and he could see the end of it all at a glance.

Sea Horse Douluo once said that all seven Sacred Pillar Guardian were Titled Douluo, and when they participated in the assessment, they were all Black-level Trial.

Therefore, in his view, only by passing the Black-level Trial will he have a chance to become Titled Douluo in the future.

Last to appear is Yu Xiaogang. The last one to appear isn't necessarily the protagonist; it could be a good-for-nothing who hesitates to step forward, afraid of being tested.

All eyes turned to him. Yu Xiaogang stood there, trembling with nervousness.

Sea Horse Douluo glanced at him and immediately saw that Yu Xiaogang had little potential. He sighed softly and said, "Last one, Yu Xiaogang."

Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath, and for some reason felt that this scene was very similar to when Martial Soul Awakening back then. However, he was full of vigor back then, but his state of mind was completely different now.

He steeled himself and stepped forward, saying in a low voice, "Let's begin."

"Good."

Sea Horse Douluo raised his hands to his chest and unleashed the seventh Sea God's Light of the day.

Blue light shone down, bathing Yu Xiaogang, and he felt refreshed all over.

Strangely, unlike Chen Xin and the others, this light did not quickly change to another color; it remained blue, only gradually dimming.

Sea Horse Douluo's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "This... could it be that you can't trigger the test?!"

He had seen this situation before. Not everyone could pass the Sea God Island assessment. Some Soul Master with poor Talent couldn't even trigger the lowest-level White-level Trial. The blue light would dissipate shortly after it shone on them.

Yu Xiaogang's blue light didn't change for a long time; it just gradually dimmed, perhaps similar to the situation of those Soul Master without Talent.

The Divine Realm.

The Sea God was leisurely watching the commotion on the island when he saw Yu Xiaogang, who had previously been rude in public and made a mess of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, being tested for aptitude. He couldn't help but ponder to himself.

Logically speaking, given his extremely poor Talent and the fact that he polluted the Sea within the Sea, it's already lucky that the Sea God didn't punish him.

But he just happened to be Yu Mingxiao's younger brother. Regardless of the relationship between the two brothers, the Sea God thought about it and decided to give him some face and arrange a test for him.

"Yu Xiaogang, I'll remember your name. How come there's such a big gap between you and your older brother? If your Talent were even a third of your older brother's, I could introduce you to the God of Farts. Unfortunately, your Talent is still far from enough."

Sea God's tone was full of disappointment, and at the same time, it was full of disdain.

Yu Xiaogang, far away on Sea God Island, had no idea that he had been rejected by the gods.

The blue light enveloping him stopped dimming and began to change color noticeably, gradually turning from blue to white.

The patterns on the Sacred Pillar also turned white, continuously climbing to the top and shooting down a white square light curtain.

The white light curtain receded, transforming into a point of white light that entered Yu Xiaogang's forehead. It was unclear whether the Sea God did it intentionally, but on his forehead, the white light turned into a brand shaped like a gas mask.

This gas mask seemed to be mocking him for only being able to fart...

Sea Horse Douluo said, "This is the first time I've seen something like this. I originally thought you wouldn't be able to trigger the assessment, but I was wrong. You actually have an assessment too, but your mark is quite strange."

Everyone else has four-pointed or six-pointed stars, with the number of points corresponding to the number of stars in the test. Only Yu Xiaogang's mark is a gas mask, which is strange, but there's absolutely no problem with it.

Yu Xiaogang touched the mark on his forehead blankly. Because he couldn't project his spiritual power, he didn't know he had a brand on his head and didn't understand what the Sea Horse Douluo meant.
