The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 154 — Second Test
Lian Haocun and his group were led by Shen Nong, and moved into a vast underground room. The rectangular room had lights that illuminated the entire room, so there was not a single dark side left. Strangely, however, there was no furniture in the room except for the white walls.
In a surprised tone, Lian Huanran asked, “What are we going to do here?”
Shen Nong said, “You will do the second test here.”
Then unexpectedly by anyone, Shen Nong moved his hands freely in the air! During the time Shen Nong 'drawn', the atmosphere around became silent and silent. After Shen Nong's hand movements stopped, a trace of golden-colored beads was visible in the air.
The trail was so long, that if Lian Huanran did not squint her eyes, Lian Huanran would not be able to find the end of the golden trail. However, the one that puzzled Lian Huanran was, that golden trail was not just one, but two!!!
Before Lian Huanran could ask, Shen Nong began to explain, “You should use your two elements in the form of a rope to follow the direction of these golden beads, and after that, you should use your two elements in the form of a rope to follow the direction of these gold beads, you must make your other rope circle the rope that has matched this golden trail ten times!"
When he heard Shen Nong's explanation, Lian Huanran's eyes almost popped out of place. The reason, the room was very long, and the end of the golden beads that Shen Nong was referring to, was at the end of the room, which had a length of less than seventy meters!
With a surprised tone accompanied restlessly, Lian Huanran asked, “Should be ten?”
Without hesitation, Shen Nong nodded his head. He seemed oblivious to the fact that both tests were somewhat inhumane.
Lian Huanran seemed to be insecure about completing this second test, but unexpectedly, Lian Haocun said, “Try first.”
Long Yuan who was standing near Lian Haocun, nodded his head, which Lian Huanran replied with a nod as well.
Still with a faint smile on his face, Shen Nong nodded his head. Then Lian Huanran began to control the two elements together, in the form of a rope to walk down the golden trail that Shen Nong had made.
Over time, the sweat that Lian Huanran produced increased continuously. Lian Huanran's clothes were wet, and his sweat was covered with sweat.
However, controlling two elements together is not easy, let alone down and around the rope that has been down the gold beads. Plus, the circling action was not just once, twice, but ten times!
In every second, Lian Huanran seemed to fight with the temptation to surrender, but in the end Lian Huanran did not give up, and managed to circle the two ropes used as foundations, seven times!
Seven times was already the limit of Lian Huanran, although the mana was good, using the elemental energy constantly was exhausting, plus Lian Huanran also had to control it.
Even so, it could be said, Lian Huanran had failed to complete the second test! With a panicked tone mixed with sadness, Lian Huanran asked, “Am I now no longer able to become your student?’
Shen Nong shook his head and smiled widely.
“No, for now you still deserve.” Said Shen Nong in a calm tone, then continued his words inwardly, ‘In fact, you have already exceeded my expectations.’
Lian Huanran seemed confused by Shen Nong's reaction, but she knew one thing for sure, that she still had hope of being accepted!
Shen Nong, “Then, let's continue the third test, and the last test..”.
