The Saintess Has A Showdown 391

Chapter 391: The Sorrowful Saintess’s Past Foes?

At this moment, the blue-haired woman in the bathrobe radiated no spirit energy whatsoever. She was, for all intents and purposes, an ordinary mortal!!!

Not only were the three legendary beings puzzled, but even some of the more experienced Saint-rank Spirit Masters sensed something amiss.

Despite her divine appearance, the Sorrowful Saintess seemed like an empty shell, devoid of spirit energy, a true mortal.

Under the watchful gazes of all, Gong Lianyue finally spoke.

“Besides the Ten Sacred Domains, no faction will refuse a Saint-rank Spirit Master or spirit beast. Therefore, all of you who have come here are considered to have passed the initial selection.”

“Now, you will undergo a ranking assessment. Your future treatment and status will be determined by your performance. Take this seriously.”

“You may now enter the gate to your left to begin the assessment.”

As the blue-haired woman gestured, all the spirit beasts present turned towards a massive black gate that had materialized beside her, radiating a terrifying, desolate aura, like a gateway to a bottomless abyss.

A chilling dread spread through the crowd, even the Cloud Moon Sovereign’s eyes widening slightly, a tremor of fear.

A lord-level legendary being…?

Was it inside the gate, or was the gate itself the being?

She couldn’t tell, but whatever it was, it possessed the power to annihilate them all in an instant.

This entrance examination for the Sea Concubine Palace… it was being held inside the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, a legendary, lord-level spirit beast!!!

Such a terrifying aura… What was the Sorrowful Saintess planning?

Wait, could the Sorrowful Saintess be weakened, needing to devour them all to recover her spirit energy…?

Despite their fear, the Saint-rank spirit beasts began to enter the gate, their bodies swallowed by the darkness.

It was said that the Sorrowful Saintess’s power was unmatched, having even faced the Moon Calamity multiple times. If she had some sinister plan, they had no chance of escape. With this fatalistic thought, the Saint-rank spirit beasts entered one by one.

A short while later, a massive, transparent black barrier appeared in the sky, a screen formed from interwoven spirit energy.

Through this barrier, created by the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, the entire Sea Concubine Palace could clearly see the trial participants’ actions.

Seeing this, many of the more paranoid among them breathed a sigh of relief.

So it was being broadcast. That was good.

The image on the giant screen showed a massive staircase, a seemingly straightforward climbing trial.

As more and more Saint-rank spirit beasts entered the gate, the number of remaining participants dwindled, until only the Cloud Moon Sovereign remained.

“Sorrowful Saintess!”

“Hmm?” Hearing the white wolf’s sudden words, Gong Lianyue tilted her head, a puzzled expression on her face.

“If I achieve first place in this assessment, can I become your spirit beast?”

“…”
“…”

A stunned silence filled the Sea Concubine Palace.

A legendary being, offering itself up just like that.

The Sea Concubine Palace members couldn’t comprehend the significance of this offer, but the spectators from the larger realms were shocked.

This Cloud Moon Sovereign, its potential immense, capable of ruling thousands of realms, willingly submitting to the Sorrowful Saintess… Was it being too hasty?

In time, they would be equals. There was no need to lower itself like this.

“Very well. If you achieve first place, I will form a Lord Attendant contract with you.”

Hearing this, the Cloud Moon Sovereign, although slightly disappointed, nodded and entered the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, its massive, hundred-meter-tall body disappearing into the gate.

Even for a legendary being with overlord-level potential, Gong Lianyue would only offer a Lord Attendant contract.

At her level, simply accumulating powerful spirit beasts was meaningless. Even a team of overlord-level legendary spirit beasts couldn’t guarantee victory against the true apex beings of the spirit world.

Titles wouldn’t be so easily obtained.

Gong Lianyue valued her bonds with her companions, their shared experiences and memories. Even the Nine-Colored Cloud Dream Flower, a mere high-rank spirit beast, she wouldn’t abandon.

As the hundreds of Saint-rank spirit beasts and legendary beings entered the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, the black gate slowly vanished, and Gong Lianyue returned to her seat.

Inside the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace

Darkness, a vast, empty space, a single, massive staircase leading upwards. This was Gong Lianyue’s specially designed assessment.

The Black Moon Dead Tower Palace’s body was essentially a living dungeon generator, able to create any environment or challenge, like a trial secret realm, incredibly convenient.

“One hundred levels, ten levels per stage. Each level will test your resistance to different auras. The higher you climb, the stronger the aura. Failure to withstand the pressure will result in your automatic removal and disqualification.”

“Incidentally, these auras are based on beings I’ve encountered in my lifetime, both allies and enemies, their presences recreated here.”

“Therefore, the auras you will face… might even be those of my own spirit beasts, or my former foes~~~”

Hearing the Sorrowful Saintess’s voice echoing through the space, the spirit beasts within the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace were filled with excitement.

Facing the auras of the Sorrowful Saintess’s spirit beasts, experiencing the might of her former foes… in a way, this trial measured their own potential, their compatibility with the Sorrowful Saintess.

If they could reach the 100th level, wouldn’t that mean surpassing even the Sorrowful Saintess herself…?

Not just the Saint-ranks, but even the three legendary beings present felt a surge of competitive spirit, the human Lord Attendants even more so.

For the spirit beasts, it might just be a game, but for the human Spirit Masters, the desire to surpass the Sorrowful Saintess burned brightly.

Within the Sea Concubine Palace, countless spectators from various realms watched the trial participants’ every move through the black barrier. This wasn’t just the Sea Concubine Palace’s entrance examination, but also a chance for the outside world to witness the Sorrowful Saintess’s true power.

The entrance examination had begun!!
