Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 586 Tribulation Appears

"Boom!"

As the war drums sounded, the starlight dissipated, and Ye Xing, already exhausted, shot out due to inertia.

Just as he was exhausted and about to crash into the war drum, Gustav's eyes flickered, and an invisible force enveloped Ye Xing in mid-air, causing him to slowly fall to the ground.

Ye Xing slumped to the ground, too weak to stand up.

Fortunately, he succeeded.

When the war drum sounded, the remaining five trainees stopped in their tracks.

The lead student was less than a meter away from the war drum, as if he could reach out and touch the drumhead.

The student first glanced at Ye Xing, his eyes showing surprise and a hint of anger.

How could he not be furious when his victory was stolen at the last moment?

He turned his gaze to Gustav.

He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say that Ye Xing won by using the Flying Dragon Steed, which was unfair to them, but in the end he said nothing.

At this moment, the sea dragon whale had dissipated, and its oppressive aura had vanished.

Gustav's attitude is already very clear; there's no point in saying more.

"Hey."

With a helpless sigh, the student could only accept reality.

Faced with Ye Xing, who can go berserk three times, if I were the mentor, I would also choose him.

And there is no unfairness involved.

Phantom beasts like the Flying Dragon Steed, which can attach themselves to a human body, are themselves a part of one's strength.

He was just unwilling to accept it; it really was so close. If Ye Xing had sounded the battle drum ten seconds earlier, it wouldn't have made him feel so bad.

Although he felt very regretful and unwilling, he was not in despair.

Because he had collaborated with three other students before the mentor assessment.

The three of them participated in three other mentor assessments. As long as two of them successfully became his apprentices, he could become his assistant and would not be eliminated.

This is why he dares to go all out and leave no way out.

Other competitors are likely doing the same.

The illusory testing ground slowly disappeared, and under Gustav's control, the group, covered in wounds, descended rapidly and returned to the ground a few seconds later.

As the golden staircase dissipated, Gustav's assessment came to an end.

As soon as Ye Xing returned to the ground, a healer who had been waiting there came forward to treat him.

Just as Ye Xing was receiving treatment, Chen Junhao slowly stepped forward.

His external injuries had healed by this time, but his right arm was still bent.

"Ye Xing".

Chen Junhao looked at Ye Xing with a slightly sentimental expression and said, "I didn't expect that we would be able to train together again. I really miss it."

"Brother Hao."

Ye Xing nodded and greeted him, using the same address as before, but his tone was more polite and less respectful and intimate than before.

"You seem to have become more polite with me lately. What, now that you've joined the Avengers and have new teammates, you're distancing yourself from me?"

Chen Junhao smiled and asked.

"No, I'm just a little tired."

Ye Xing shook his head and didn't say anything more.

He had heard about Xie Yixiao being abandoned and having to beg for help everywhere, and he had some reservations about Chen Junhao, so he naturally didn't respect him as much as before.

Furthermore, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together; they are no longer on the same path.

"Then you should get proper treatment."

Chen Junhao could also sense Ye Xing's deliberate distancing and was very unhappy, but he did not show it. After saying something, he turned around and left.

Originally teammates, and now under the same mentor, he wanted to get closer to Ye Xing, but he didn't expect him to be so ungrateful.

After leaving Ye Xing, Chen Junhao began to mingle among the students, and laughter could be heard from time to time.

Ye Xing didn't pay attention to Chen Junhao's emotions. He looked up and saw that Gusta was the first mentor to finish the assessment.

In the distance, a cluster of purple raindrops fell from the sky, creating a spectacular sight.

A familiar figure could be seen in the purple rain.

While Ye Xing was being assessed, Yang Ningbing was also being assessed by Remel.

As the only extraordinary individual among the three lightning-type mentors, Remyr is the preferred mentor for all lightning-type students, making the competition no less intense than that for Gustav, and perhaps even fiercer.

All the trainees had experienced the power of thunder turning into rain before, so to be on the safe side, Yang Ningbing did not participate in the assessment immediately.

She observed the other trainees' methods and effectiveness in dealing with thunderstorms from the golden ladder.

This is why Ye Xing can still see her assessment at this time.

Remy sent out a total of three invitation cards.

One of the cards was given to Lin Feng, but he refused it; the other two were accepted.

That means Remy still has thirteen student places available.

Thirteen minutes into the assessment, eight trainees were already standing behind Remy, and Yang Ningbing finally stepped onto the assessment field to begin the assessment.

She first entered her demonic transformation state and activated a defensive barrier.

But in just over three minutes, her defensive barrier was dissolved by the thunder and rain. She could only hold on with her spiritual energy cloak, but that too lasted only a little over a minute before dissipating.

Her spiritual and soul power were not overdrawn; it was just that, faced with the attack of thunder and rain, the speed of repair could not keep up with the speed of destruction.

Raindrops fell on the purple dragon scales, splashing and crackling with electricity. The crackling electricity traveled through Yang Ningbing's body, bringing a stinging and numbing sensation.

Even the Earth-Ranked Thunder Dragon Beast's defense could only last for a few dozen seconds before it could no longer endure it.

Remel's test rule was to endure ten minutes in a thunderstorm. After just over five minutes, Yang Ningbing's defenses completely collapsed, leaving her helpless.

At this moment, five people, including Yang Ningbing, were participating in the assessment simultaneously in the testing area. Her defense collapsed the fastest. Just when everyone thought Yang Ningbing would rationally give up, they did not expect that her whole body would be covered in red arcs of electricity, her right hand would be raised high, and a blood-red thunderbolt would emit a sharp cry, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the rolling thunderclouds.

The thunderclouds in the sky churned violently, and streaks of blood-red lightning flashed and darted through the purple thunder.

"Crimson lightning, it's a [Lightning Tribulation]!"

"A rare, god-level soul skill!"

"His skills are average, but he's really lucky!"

"What does she mean by this? Is she trying to break through the Thunder Emperor's attack with [Lightning Tribulation]?"

"Isn't this overestimating one's own abilities?"

Both those who had passed the assessment and those who were currently undergoing the assessment looked puzzled.

Not only were the students surprised, but Remy was as well.

Even as an extraordinary powerhouse, she did not possess any god-level soul skills.

A demon spirit master can only have ten soul skills if they do not refine a second demon spirit.

Upon becoming extraordinary, one's soul undergoes a transformation, gaining sentience and the ability to manifest as an external avatar, but one is unable to absorb the eleventh soul skill.

God-level soul skills are extremely rare, and even if you possess one, you may not be able to absorb it.

Demon spirits possessing divine-level soul skills are generally ranked on the Earthly Ranking, with a minimum rank of nine.

If the absorption fails, it would be a waste of a precious demon spirit, so few forces would do so.

It's no exaggeration to say that the success rate of absorbing a god-level soul skill is even lower than the probability of a student becoming a king.

She knew that Yang Ningbing possessed the [Thunder Tribulation] skill, but a divine-level soul skill was not enough for her to send out an invitation card.

Yang Ningbing's performance just now proved this point.

Compared to other competitors, Yang Ningbing's strength can be said to be the weakest.

Among lightning-type soul skills, [Lightning Tribulation] is not the most powerful.

However, the [Lightning Tribulation] has one unavoidable characteristic.

Once locked onto by the caster, one cannot escape from this soul skill and can only withstand the attack!

The power and number of times the lightning tribulation occur vary depending on the strength of the user of the soul skill.

With Yang Ningbing's strength, seven lightning tribulations should be her limit.

God-level soul skills are powerful, but Yang Ningbing isn't even a King, so naturally she couldn't break through her [Thunder Rain].

The reality is the same.

The thunderclouds in the sky were not affected; in fact, their area even increased.

A hint of amusement flickered in Remy's eyes as he considered a certain possibility.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, a thick, blood-red bolt of lightning, like a domineering thunder dragon, crashed down and struck Yang Ningbing's head.

The moment the crimson lightning crashed down, the illusory arena centered on Yang Ningbing suddenly sank, and a foul odor filled the air. The students who were closer to Yang Ningbing had already moved away in advance, fearing that they would be affected.

Even so, one person was still affected, and the already precarious barrier was completely destroyed.

As the user of a soul skill, Yang Ningbing was not treated gently when she attacked herself.

She let out a painful roar, her whole body trembled, her face flushed, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Haha."

With just one strike, Yang Ningbing's entire body was torn open, emitting a pungent, burnt smell.

She was seriously injured, but she smiled.

Because the plan succeeded.

The purple raindrops falling from the sky seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, no longer falling on her.

A two-meter radius around her became an empty space.

Yang Ningbing looked up and saw that the blood-red thunderclouds were directly above her head.

[Thunder Tribulation] indeed could not destroy Remyel's [Thunder Rain], nor could it make the thunder and rain disappear.

However, as a divine-level soul skill, the crimson thundercloud of [Thunder Tribulation] can forcibly merge into Remel's thundercloud, becoming a part of it.

At this moment, Yang Ningbing only needed to withstand her own [Lightning Tribulation] attack.

The maximum interval between each [Thunder Tribulation] is two minutes. Yang Ningbing only needs to endure one more [Thunder Tribulation] to pass the test.

Surviving two [lightning tribulations] is much easier than surviving five minutes of thunderstorms.

This is Yang Ningbing's plan.

Her plan was undoubtedly successful.

"Boom!"

When the second bolt of crimson lightning struck with earth-shattering force, Yang Ningbing's barrier and spiritual energy cloak instantly dissipated, leaving her powerless to resist and blasted to the ground.

Her entire body was charred black, and her skin was cracked, like parched earth, making her a shocking sight.

Not only that, but the violent power of lightning was still roaming through her body, ravaging her bones and muscles. Even in such a miserable state, she still managed to get up, her hands on the ground, her whole body trembling violently.

Yang Ningbing looked up at the sky, her bloodshot eyes brimming with barely suppressed excitement.

In sight, the crimson thunderclouds that originally belonged to the [Thunder Tribulation] were dissipating at a visible speed.

As the crimson thunderclouds dissipated, purple raindrops fell on her again, seeping into her flesh through her cracked skin, bringing waves of excruciating pain.

"Six hundred and ten seconds."

She silently told herself that although more than ten minutes had passed, Yang Ningbing still endured the excruciating pain and staggered to Remel's side.

Not far away, on the last step of the golden staircase, Dong Yunan, who was always ready to assist in the treatment, looked on incredulously.

Without her intervention, Yang Ningbing had already successfully become Remel's apprentice.

They won a student spot in a way that no one had expected.
