Douluo Continent: The Legend of the Dragon King? No, the Legend of the Six Kings!

The black dragon in the painting seemed about to break through the wall, and the light in the hall dimmed with the oppressive force, causing the space to tremble.

Faced with such a mental attack, Lin Xiu merely glanced at it, and the attack instantly crumbled and shattered. His mental strength was simply too strong, especially since this was only one part of the main body's soul.

It's easy to imagine the extent of Lin Nuo's mental strength once he possessed a complete soul.

The Black Dragon King mural was created by mixing a drop of Di Tian's blood into the ink, which is why the mural can release a real bloodline-level spiritual pressure.

People with weak mental strength would be unable to react instantly to such powerful mental pressure, and might even collapse and fall into a coma.

The first round serves as the initial screening, directly eliminating those with weak mental strength, highlighting Shrek Academy's "only accepting monsters" threshold.

In the blink of an eye, only Lin Xiu remained standing unharmed in the entire hall. The students around him were either kneeling or had fainted, while he stood there alone.

Standing at a distance, Shrek teacher couldn't help but swallow hard. Just how powerful was this guy's mental strength that he was unaffected by the Black Dragon King mural?

boom!

A figure instantly appeared before Lin Xiu. The newcomer was an old man with white hair, radiating powerful spiritual energy. His gaze was fixed on Lin Xiu, his eyes filled with admiration and joy. He asked, "Boy, what is your martial soul?"

"A sickle." Lin Xiu replied casually without even thinking. He guessed why the old man had appeared and was simply using his own martial soul weapon as his martial soul.

Upon hearing this, the old man never expected that the young man's martial soul was a scythe. With such spiritual power, he must at least have a spiritual martial soul. The physical martial soul is usually the brain and eyes, so it's too strange that the martial soul is a scythe.

The old man didn't give up and tentatively asked again, "Young man, do you possess twin martial souls?"

"Senior, unfortunately that's not the case."

Lin Xiu shook his head and replied.

"Alright, Lao Wang." Another examiner in the shadows couldn't stand it any longer and slowly spoke up: "So what if someone has a scythe-wielding martial spirit and a stronger mental strength? They still have to take the exam."

Old Wang, who had originally intended to test the waters, immediately gave up upon hearing this and disappeared from Lin Xiu's sight.

Lin Xiu also withdrew his gaze and looked at the grading teacher who was standing there in a daze: "Teacher, please give the score."

"Okay, okay." The teacher finally realized what was happening and immediately gave Lin Xiu a perfect score of ten. "Full marks, ten points!"

There was no way around it; Lin Xiu's performance just now was truly outstanding, standing out from the crowd.

"OK."

Lin Xiu nodded and headed to the next examination room.

The other examiners, watching the returning old man from the shadows, teased, "Old Wang, he only scored full marks in mental strength; he hasn't demonstrated anything else. Are you already so eager to take him on as a disciple?"

The other examiners also looked at the strongman, Old Wang, with amusement in their eyes.

"Old Lin, is all you do is tease me?"

Faced with the mocking and teasing gazes of the group, the old man Wang frowned slightly, his tone tinged with dissatisfaction, and said, "Knowing that my sect's disciples are dwindling and there are fewer and fewer people, I just wanted to see if he was... Sigh, never mind, let's not talk about this."

He knew all too well that his reason for staying at Shrek Academy was to reclaim the sect's legacy and see if he could take a few promising talents back to the sect, but unfortunately, he hadn't found the right ones yet.

Seeing his good brother like this, Old Lin patted him on the shoulder helplessly, "Alright~ I know what you're thinking. Keep watching. If it really is a true martial soul, I, as the dean of the outer academy, won't fight you for it."

Is this really true?

"nature."

The two elderly people exchanged glances, and everything was understood without words.

Lin Xiu had no idea that he had been targeted so quickly. He had already arrived at the destination of the second test. There were already other people competing in the arena. The people below were facing a thousand-year-old soul beast. It was a real soul beast, not the soul beast in the Spirit Ascension Platform.

In this era, even spirit beasts are almost becoming protected species, so Shrek Academy is truly willing to sacrifice them.

However, among the few people fighting below, Lin Xiu quickly recognized who the leader was. There was only one guy holding a long spear, and that was Yun Ming, the most dazzling genius of this era and the future number one person on the continent.

As Yun Ming, who was preparing to deliver the final blow to the soul beast in front of him while fighting below, felt a sense of being watched, as if his entire body was being seen. In that moment of distraction, he missed his chance to deal with the soul beast and was sent flying.

"Boss!" Zhuo Shi and Cai Yue'er became anxious when they saw their respected boss being sent flying by a soul beast, and quickly caught him.

For this reason, the soul beast completely escaped. The teacher who was grading the second round was in a bit of a predicament when he saw this scene, and turned to look at the examiners in the shadows.

"9 points, two more 8 points remaining."

Upon hearing this, the teacher immediately assigned scores to Yun Ming and the other two.

Upon hearing his score of 9, Yun Ming said somewhat helplessly, "Another 9."

"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Zhuo Shi leaned forward, his tone full of concern and curiosity, his eyes fixed on him. Cai Yue'er beside him also frowned, her concern in her eyes undisguised, watching his face closely.

Feeling the genuine care from the two people, he felt a slight warmth in his heart.

These two guys were companions he met after coming to Shrek City. They initially met through a fight, but now they've gone from disliking each other to working side by side.

He sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, and said with a hint of seriousness in his voice, "Just now, I felt another kind of inexplicable gaze staring intently at me."

In the distance, Lin Xiu withdrew his gaze, thinking to himself, "Am I really that perceptive? Or is Yun Ming's genius just too extraordinary? This intuition... is truly not to be underestimated."

Just as Yun Ming and his companions were preparing to head to the next exam, they brushed past Lin Xiu. He immediately stopped, turned around, and stared intently at Lin Xiu's retreating figure as he headed towards the arena. "It's him!"

"Boss, do you know him?" Zhuoshi asked.

"I met him once at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters last time. He was someone I was somewhat wary of."

"Someone even the boss fears?" Zhuo Shi immediately became interested. He had always loved fighting and being unruly. The reason he submitted to Yun Ming was because he was stronger than him. So how strong must this guy be that the boss fears? He wanted to challenge him.

At this moment, Cai Yue'er said directly, "Brother Yun, this guy dares to challenge a soul beast all by himself. I feel you're overestimating him."

This is the Colosseum; it's not a place where just one person can go.

Even though Yun Ming, whom she admired, might not be able to escape unscathed, that guy actually wanted to go alone. How confident was he in himself?

After a long silence, Yun Ming finally spoke, "Let's stay and see."

Upon hearing Yun Ming's words, the two finally nodded. They were also quite curious whether the guy Yun Ming was wary of was truly powerful or if their boss was just imagining things.
