Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is a Simulator

Chapter 155 Do you understand the importance of work-life balance?

"This...how is this possible..."

"Brother Mu can actually keep going up..."

"Are we almost at the summit?"

"No way..."

At the foot of the mountain, the sea witch was also incredibly shocked to see that Mu Ge continued to climb upwards after completing his task.

It was especially incredible to see Mu Ge moving forward at such a relaxed pace.

Has the pressure from the Light of Poseidon disappeared?

The incredulous sea witch tried to climb the steps. "No, the light of the sea god is still there!"

"Brother Mu is so amazing!"

The sea witch looked up at Muge again, her eyes filled with even more adoration.

boom--

It was at this moment that Muge successfully reached the summit.

A burst of intense light suddenly erupted above Poseidon Mountain, illuminating the entire Poseidon Island.

"What happened?"

"This oppressive force... is so powerful..."

"Has the sea god descended?"

"..."

Such a commotion quickly shocked the entire Poseidon Island, with everyone speculating about what had happened.

The other guardians of the sacred pillars also looked in surprise toward Mount Poseidon.

hum-

Poseidon's figure also appeared instantly on the summit of Poseidon Mountain, next to Muge, looking in surprise at the intense light emanating from above.

"Is this the kind of strange phenomenon that only occurs after someone has reached the top?"

"Such a rich light from the sea god!"

Poseidon stared in astonishment at the scene before her, at the pastoral scene bathed in the intense light of the sea god.

She didn't know how Mu Ge managed to reach the summit of Poseidon Mountain, but Mu Ge's performance made her feel a sense of admiration.

No wonder he is the successor valued by the Sea God.

[By exceeding expectations in the first of the Nine Trials of Poseidon, the reward is doubled, and you gain 10% Poseidon affinity!]

Meanwhile, Muge, bathed in the light of the sea god, also received the prompts from the sea god's nine trials.

Sure enough, his reward doubled.

Unfortunately, only the affinity with the sea god is available.

These rewards are of absolutely no help to him at the moment.

After Muge completed his mission, the strange phenomenon in the sky above Poseidon Mountain quickly disappeared.

"Congratulations! You have exceeded expectations in the first of the Nine Trials of Poseidon!"

At this moment, Poseidon looked at Muge and sincerely congratulated him.

"High Priest!"

Muge also noticed Poseidon and quickly took a few more glances at her.

Of course, Mu Ge no longer dared to use his discerning eyes to look at it.

"I never expected you to actually reach the summit of Poseidon Mountain; no one has ever accomplished this in the assessment before!"

Poseidon looked at the pastoral scene and praised it generously.

Even Tang Chen, whom she once greatly admired, could not do it.

"High Priest, you flatter me. I only used a trick; with my true strength, I could never have done that!"

Mu Ge answered modestly.

"Being able to take shortcuts is also a sign of your skill!"

Poseidon said very seriously.

"Wow~ Brother Mu, you actually made it to the top! That's amazing..."

Just then, the sea witch from the foot of the mountain also came up. Excited, she threw herself into Mu Ge's arms.

Muge quickly opened his arms and hugged the other person, then looked at Poseidon somewhat awkwardly.

The sea witch seems to have completely ignored Poseidon.

"Cough cough—"

Poseidon was indeed a little annoyed by this scene and quickly coughed twice.

"what……"

"High...High Priest..."

Hearing the sound, the sea witch realized that Poseidon was there and quickly jumped off Pastor's arms.

Then the sea witch stood beside Muge with her head down, like a little girl who had done something wrong, not daring to look at Poseidon.

"Mugwort, your talent is exceptional. Being chosen by the Sea God is a great opportunity for you. I don't want you to waste your time on other things!"

Seeing that Muge was also a sea witch, Poseidon couldn't bear to see Muge waste her talent, so she gently advised Muge.

"And you, Lorelei!"

"You must not leave the sacred pillar you are guarding so easily from now on!"

Then, Poseidon didn't forget to criticize the sea witch.

"I...I understand, High Priest!"

Faced with Poseidon's words, the sea witch dared not resist and quickly agreed.

"Get some rest. The second of the Nine Trials of Poseidon will begin tomorrow. I hope you will take each and every one of the trials seriously!"

Seeing that the sea witch had taken her words to heart, Poseidon didn't say anything more to her. After saying goodbye to Muge, she turned and left.

Anyway, she said it, and whether Muge listens or not is up to Muge.

She wouldn't let the sea witch leave the sacred pillar rashly, and she believed that Pastoral didn't have that much time to waste either.

"Waaah... Brother Mu..."

"The High Priest won't let me leave the Holy Pillar anymore, so I can't come to see you as often!"

As soon as Poseidon left, the sea witch threw herself into Pastor's arms and became aggrieved.

"Don't worry, I'll come see you often!"

There was nothing Mu Ge could do but stroke the sea witch's head to comfort her.

He couldn't possibly allow the sea witch to disobey Poseidon's orders, and besides, the sea witch wouldn't dare.

"Yes, Brother Mu, you must come to see me often!"

The sea witch quickly said.

"certainly!"

Pastoral songs guarantee this.

"Brother Mu, I'm going back to the Holy Pillar now. Remember to come visit me often!"

Hearing Mu Ge's assurance, the sea witch felt much better and got up from Mu Ge's embrace.

She dared not disobey Poseidon's words, so she did not dare to stay there any longer.

I was caught slacking off by the high priest. What bad luck!

Watching the sea witch's departing figure, Mu Ge felt somewhat helpless.

Okay, that's it, the perfect spice in my life is gone.

It will probably be a while before I can play the flute with the sea witch again.

That woman, Poseidon, is such a troublemaker.

Do you understand the importance of balancing work and rest?

Don't ever fall into my hands again, or I'll make up for everything I owed the Sea Witch by taking it out on you.

"The second exam is tomorrow!"

Since there was nothing that could be changed for the time being, Mu Ge stopped thinking about it and summoned the contents of the second of the Nine Trials of the Sea God to examine them.

[Second Trial of the Sea God: Break through the circular blockade. Without killing any sea spirit beasts, break through the blockade on the circular sea and reach the other side. No spirit ring skills may be used! Reward: 5% Sea God Affinity! Time Requirement: One year.]

"The second test wasn't too difficult either; the hardest part was getting past Xiaobai's obstacles!"

"However, with my current strength, breaking through Xiaobai's obstruction shouldn't be difficult!"

"But is it really necessary for me to finish the second exam so quickly?"

Looking at the content of the second of the Nine Trials of the Sea God, Mu Ge fell into deep thought.

The assessment was not a problem for him at all.

Mu Ge's main concern was whether to continue using the one-year time limit of the mission to further improve his soul power level.
