Chapter 968: Chapter 479: Slaying the Main God Candle Dragon_3

Lord Kunpeng wore a puzzled expression: ???

What is this?

Why are they exempted from the assessment?

Lu Ran and Yun Bao were also taken aback.

Lu Ran said, "We don’t need to take the assessment anymore?"

Mountain Soul replied, "No need, you can go directly to meet Lord Candle Dragon."

"This..." Lu Ran paused, waiting for a notification sound, but Infinite City provided no such notification to indicate that he had completed the legendary task.

[Skipping the assessment prevents it from being judged as completed? How tricky.]

"Maybe we should still undergo the assessment," Lu Ran suggested. "I mainly want to let Lord Candle Dragon witness our strength."

"Also to secure a better position!"

This time, it was Mountain Soul’s turn to be stunned.

Lord Kunpeng was taken aback again, looking at Lu Ran and his companions, wondering if they were out of their minds.

"Alright, your request is accepted by Lord Candle Dragon; next, Human Sir, you will undergo Lord Candle Dragon’s test together with Lord Kunpeng," Mountain Soul nodded after a while.

"Lord Candle Dragon’s test consists of three parts, testing body, heart, and mind."

"The first test focuses on the body, particularly the potential your body can exert."

"Typical beings can only manifest a portion of their strength, only creatures who have battled though many hardships can fully manifest their own power. Those who can spontaneously exert strength several times beyond their physical limits may gain Lord Candle Dragon’s recognition."

"You two, each must strike a blow exceeding your physical limits. This attack will determine the outcome of your assessment."

"This is simple." After Mountain Soul explained the rules of the first test, both Lu Ran and Lord Kunpeng found it straightforward.

"Lord Mountain Soul," Lu Ran then turned to Mountain Soul and asked, "Since Lord Candle Dragon has sensed the power system within me, should I undertake the assessment myself, or should my contracted pet beast go through it?"

Lord Kunpeng remained silent on the side, confused.

Pet beast?

Mountain Soul said, "It doesn’t matter whether it’s you or your contracted creature; either one can participate. As long as one passes, you are considered as a single entity."

"Alright." Lu Ran offered a slight smile, retracted the intrigued Yun Bao, and said, "Then I’ll switch to another battle partner."

"Next, I will take you to the assessment space," Mountain Soul stated, stepping forward. The surrounding space shifted instantly, transporting Lu Ran and Lord Kunpeng between great mountains, atop which sat a stone statue.

In Lu Ran’s eyes, the statue had a human face and a snake body, and its eyes were vertical.

However, to Lord Kunpeng, the statue appeared as a bird-faced, snake-bodied, and immensely tall figure.

"This is Lord Candle Dragon’s Mountain God Statue; it possesses invincible defense. The space here is also very stable. You just need to strike your attack on this statue."

"This isn’t right!" Upon hearing this, Lord Kunpeng objected, considering striking the statue a great disrespect.

"There’s no need to worry," Mountain Soul reassured, "With your attack, it’s impossible to leave any marks on this Mountain God Statue. Just attack with confidence."

"I was overthinking it. Indeed, after all, Lord Candle Dragon has already transcended the god level."

No longer objecting, Lord Kunpeng glanced at Lu Ran and asked, "Brother, who goes first?"

"I’ll go first," Lu Ran casually replied, then summoned the Six Paths Flower.

The assessment’s focus was to evaluate how much one’s life force could exceed physical limits.

Given that, Liu Hua, possessing the ability to "break limits," had no reason to fail.

In the past, it could even ignore the limitations of the Contract Card, allowing its growth level to exceed bounds!

However, Liu Hua refrained from doing so recently, as it was unnecessary; reaching level 100 was inevitable, and there was no need to rush for the maximum growth prematurely. After all, breaking limits would place a certain burden on Lu Ran.

Of course, Liu Hua didn’t neglect training its limit-breaking ability but applied it in more worthwhile attempts, like trying to break through the Species Level limits. Breaking through species levels was far more significant than surpassing growth levels.

Yet, evidently, Liu Hua hadn’t succeeded thus far.

Despite no success, it didn’t mean there were no gains. Liu Hua, enhanced by the Mortal Path, had a comprehension not inferior to Mr. Husky’s and had always wanted to conduct a bolder experiment.

Taking this opportunity might allow Liu Hua to maximize its attempt.

Liu Hua first emerged from the ripples of space, then slowly levitated and faced the Candle Dragon Statue.

This time, in Liu Hua’s eyes, the Candle Dragon Statue transformed into a serpent-bodied, flower-headed divine figure, bizarre to the extreme...

She shook her head and rubbed her eyes, but the image before her remained the same, leaving her unable to discern what Lord Candle Dragon truly looked like.

"This Main God is quite something. (Playing tricks, can’t show himself? Is he even wearing a head cover?)" Liu Hua muttered in her heart.

"Hey." Liu Hua’s appearance still seemed unbelievable to Lord Kunpeng, who was amazed by Lu Ran, this human youth.

After seeing Liu Hua, it realized that this was another supreme deity!

For Lord Kunpeng, understanding how two god-level apex beings appeared consecutively beside Lu Ran in this Ancient Blue Star, which lacked a Beast Training system, was utterly baffling.

However, compared to Yun Bao, whose elemental power was as wild as a natural disaster, Liu Hua’s power fluctuations appeared much more serene. Lord Kunpeng thought that perhaps having the cat-like Yun Bao join the assessment might produce better results, as the wilder the power, the more likely it could exceed physical limits.

"Is it a curse?"

Meanwhile, deeper within the space, a red dragon, resembling an Oriental Divine Dragon, focused on this area.

"A peculiar human, shouldn’t be a native of Blue Star, but rather one who followed that deer, squirrel, from beyond this world."
