A succubus devours its master? She then raises a twelve-winged angel!

Chapter 15 Rescue!

In the center of the Trial Grounds, in a circular hall.

The moment Ying Bing stepped out of the passage, her cool gaze quickly swept across her surroundings.

Just as she was about to find a corner to meditate and wait for the other two—

"Hi!"

A clear voice suddenly rang out.

Ying Bing abruptly stopped, a hint of surprise flashing in her usually calm eyes.

She turned around abruptly, looking incredulously at the source of the sound.

Gu Xing was leaning lazily against a stone pillar, with Liuli floating quietly beside him.

The familiar angelic beast was tilting its head, curiously examining her.

"you"

The usually composed Ying Bing was uncharacteristically speechless.

In the trial just now, she held back almost everything, and Ice Phoenix went all out.

Even so, she was still a step behind this person?
After a moment of silence, Ying Bing finally stepped forward, her clear, cold voice tinged with hesitation:

How long have you been here?

Gu Xing looked up, meeting the slightly furrowed brows of the icy beauty, and casually replied:
"About ten minutes."

“!”

Ying Bing's pupils contracted slightly.

A ten-minute difference!

This means that the opponent's tamed beast is far stronger than the Ice Phoenix!

Perhaps sensing its master's thoughts, the ice phoenix on Ying Bing's shoulder flapped its wings defiantly.

After comforting Binghuang, Ying Bing nodded to Gu Xing and then turned to walk to the other side of the hall.

However, that cold gaze still occasionally shifted between Gu Xing and Liu Li.

Time passed silently, second by second, and the third passage remained completely still.

Gu Xing's expression gradually became serious.

It's likely that something happened to Qin Tian, ​​otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to clear the game.

Ying Bing also frowned, her slender fingers unconsciously stroking the wings of the Ice Phoenix.

This year we finally managed to gather three SSS-level geniuses. If none of them can pass this trial this year...
Just then, Gu Xing suddenly stood up.

"Liuli, let's go!"

"Where are you going?" Ying Bing turned her head in surprise.

"To save the day."

Those two simple words caused Ying Bing's pupils to shrink sharply.

She watched as Gu Xing strode towards the entrance of the passage where Qin Tian was, and instantly understood his intention.

"You're crazy!"

Her usually calm voice rose unusually high.

The second stage tests individual ability; once someone intervenes, the difficulty will triple!
If the final stage features ten awakened seventh-tier enhanced puppets, coupled with the stacked equilibrium force field...
Even if Gu Xing is stronger than her, there is absolutely no chance of her passing the level.

But Gu Xing did not hesitate at all.

Although Wei Yuan had promised that he would give him the Crystal of Light regardless of whether he passed the trial or not.

But he's the kind of person who doesn't want to owe anyone favors.

If you can do something, you must do it to the best of your ability.

"Liu Li!"

A burning fighting spirit ignited in the little angel's eyes.

The master's will is the highest mission of the beast tamer!

Wherever her master's sword points, even if there is an abyss or a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire ahead, she will surely clear away all obstacles for her master!
"Seraph - Complete Release!"

Before Ying Bing's shocked gaze, Liuli transformed into a war angel bathed in holy flames, its crimson radiance illuminating the entire hall. "Liuli, once inside, you must eliminate half of the puppets immediately; otherwise, with ten balanced force fields combined, even you will be suppressed."

"Understood!" Liuli's reply was filled with unprecedented seriousness.

"Then—" Gu Xing took a deep breath, "Charge!"

The two figures instantly disappeared into the dark passage.

Ying Bing stood there, stunned, her icy blue eyes reflecting the fading afterglow of the holy flame.

After a long while, she gently stroked the ice phoenix on her shoulder, her voice so soft it was almost a whisper:

"Ice Phoenix, do you really think we deserve to be called geniuses?"

Inside the dark passage, the war tree's gnarled branches firmly protected Qin Tian at its core.

"boom!"

Another heavy punch slammed into the tree trunk, sending wood chips flying. The eyes of the seventh-level awakened trial puppet flashed with a scarlet light.

If it weren't for the War Treant's "Ironwood Barrier" skill, Qin Tian would probably have been eliminated by now.

"Damn it."

Curled up in the tree cocoon, Qin Tian gritted his teeth, his knuckles turning white from the excessive force.

The War Treant's vine whips lashed at the puppet, but only left a few shallow marks.
The two sides thus fell into a strange stalemate.

"Damn it, why is this trial puppet so strong! Is it even possible for a human to clear a level like this?"

Qin Tian's face was extremely grim as he watched the trial golem relentlessly attack the war treant's trunk.

“Tree people, strangle their roots.”

The war tree's gnarled roots burst forth from the earth, lashing the puppet's chest like a giant python, but leaving only a few shallow marks on its metal shell.

The trial puppet merely staggered back a few steps, its scarlet eyes flashing twice, before lunging forward again.

The attack just now did not cause any real damage to the trial puppet.

The trial golems made of alloy are the perfect nemesis of physical beast tamers like the War Treants.

Moreover, after defeating this trial-type puppet...
In the next room, there were three trial puppets that had awakened to the seventh rank.

Thinking of this, a wave of despair washed over Qin Tian.

“Give up?”

only.

The thought had barely crossed his mind when a deafening explosion suddenly erupted from the depths of the passage.

A blinding white light surged forth like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing the trial puppet!
As the smoke cleared, Qin Tian's wide eyes reflected a figure that could never possibly appear.

"How...how could it be you?!"

His voice was stuck in his throat, and his fingertips trembled slightly uncontrollably.

He never expected that the person who came to save him from the end would be Gu Xing, whom he had initially looked down upon.

Qin Tian knew all too well what Gu Xing's presence here meant.

Gu Xing raised an eyebrow, looking at Young Master Qin, who was covered in sawdust. "Oh, has Young Master Qin been driven mad by the puppet? Don't you even recognize your savior?"

"You! You!"

Qin Tian's face flushed red, and his outstretched finger drew an angry arc in the air for a long time, but in the end, he couldn't even squeeze out a complete sentence.

"Alright," Gu Xing said, his joking expression fading, "It's time to go, Young Master Qin."

Gu Xing has dealt with the trial puppet in the last space, and the entire passage is now completely unobstructed.

When Gu Xing brought the dazed Qin Tian back to the hall, the proud scion of a prominent family was still in shock.

His gaze mechanically shifted between Gu Xing and Ying Bing, until he finally had to accept an absurd truth.

This guy from the "countryside" not only crushed him, but might even be much stronger than the number one genius in Kyoto.

And at this moment, Ying Bing—

Her cold gaze was fixed on Gu Xing, as if she were looking at a monster that defied common sense.

He actually completed the trial at three times the difficulty all by himself!

They actually killed ten enhanced trial puppets that had reached the seventh level of awakening!
