Chapter 270: The Demon Soldier

Chapter 270 - The Demon Soldier

It was already day two inside the World of Illusions. Some applicants had almost completed the assigned task for them, and the remaining others already had a few tokens in their possession.

Looking at this, more than eighty percent of the applicants would certainly pass this assessment.

Lu Sulan and Long Meili were still watching the applicants with attentive gazes. The latter in particular was looking at Sylphie’s screen with great interest. She found the girl’s personality was up to her liking and she did not mind if she becomes her trainer.

"If this continues, most of them will pass the assessment." Lu Sulan broke the silence.

Long Meili continued staring at Sylphie’s screen, but she still replied in a calm tone. "It does not matter. The master knows that not many would fail this assessment. However, he said that more than half of them will fail the final assessment."

Lu Sulan raised her eyebrows in surprise. "But isn’t it the easiest assessment? Why would half of them fail?" She asked while feeling a bit perplexed.

Long Meili glanced at her and said in a cold voice. "The master doesn’t want rats inside his territory."

Lu Sulan’s eyes flashed with understanding upon hearing those words. She then turned her gaze back on the screen in front of them.

Sylphie kept the token that she had just gotten from the lesser demon that she had killed earlier. Her face was covered in grime and dirt, but there was a bright smile hanging on her face as she exclaimed. "I only need three more to complete the assessment! But before that, I should clean myself first. This smell is killing me..."

Sylphie returned to the pond that she found early this morning and washed clean. When she saw her bedraggled appearance reflected on the pond, a burst of complicated emotions welled up inside her heart.

"Just a little bit more. Once I become a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Tower, I will train hard until I become strong enough to avenge my family and the Iron Sand Kingdom! Of course, the first on my list is still the Crimson Sun Sect!" Sylphie clenched her fists as she muttered to herself. The fury in her eyes blazed like a raging volcano.

After scrubbing her body clean, she then washed her clothes and let them dry on the bonfire she made. She then carefully wrapped herself with the fur of a savage beast wolf that she hunted yesterday.

Crackle. Crackle.

The flame from the bonfire created a crackling sound that somehow alleviated Sylphie’s emotional state. She could still remember how her father taught her to create her fire using the materials they found in the forest. It was a happy memory that would always remain in her heart.

Suddenly, Sylphie’s ears twitched. She could hear the sound of fighting from a distance away. From the movement of the ground, she calculated that it was approximately a thousand meters away from her.

"This is strange. The lesser demons are not that strong to create this kind of commotion. Are some groups fighting among themselves?" She muttered as she hastily put on her clothes. It was still a bit wet, but it did not hinder her movement, so she did not mind it.

Sylphie dashed towards the direction of the commotion speedily. She was quite curious about what caused the sounds that she heard. Aside from that, she was also worried that Jon’s group might be there.

Although Sylphie was not attracted to Jon, she was still grateful for his help and it would leave a bad taste in her mouth if she just left them there, so she had to check the place and see if Jon and the others are there.

"Shit! Why is there such a creature here? Is this also part of the assessment?!" Hans cursed as he stared at the demonic figure wreaking havoc ahead of them.

Jon and Troy were similarly stunned as they watched the demon.

This creature had dark purple skin with numerous veins protruding all over its body. The demonic creature was also covered with plain metal armor and even its head was protected by a spiked helmet.

Even from a distance, this evil creature was giving off a strong aura that made the surrounding applicants feel dread.

Roaarr!!

It opened its mouth and emitted a shrill cry that echoed inside the forest.

Prince Dante had also managed to find the rest of his group, and all of them were now staring at the demon with a serious look.

"Brother Beiming, can you block its attack?" Prince Dante suddenly asked as he gazed at Beiming Chu.

The latter was a bit surprised upon hearing the question, but he still answered with knitted eyebrows. "I don’t know. I can’t estimate this guy’s power, but it should be a peak stage 7th-rank Emperor realm creature. If my guess is correct, then I should be able to block two strikes from it."

Prince Dante nodded his head. "That’s more than enough, but we need to gather the other applicants. We can’t defeat that thing by ourselves. Brother Zhu, Brother Beiming, go and tell the others to come in this direction. I’ll buy some time for you guys, but you must hurry. Sister, you should go with them."

Beiming Chu and Zhu Ren nodded their heads when they heard his words, but Princess Sylvia was a bit worried about her brother. She could not allow him to fight that monster alone.

"Brother! But that thi-"

Prince Dante covered her lips with his hand and smiled at her. "Trust me. That guy is not enough to kill me. Besides, I still have the protective item given to me by grandfather."

Princess Sylvia was still worried, but when she saw the confident look of her brother, she could only nod her head unwillingly. "You have to be careful. I’ll beat you up if you get hurt!" She threatened.

Prince Dante chuckled at her words. He then glanced at Zhu Ren and Beiming Chu. "I’ll leave my sister to both of you. Please protect her."

The two men nodded their heads solemnly as they promised. "You have my word. We won’t let anyone touch her."

Prince Dante felt reassured at their words. He then shouted. "Go!"
