The Chaos Dragon Prince

"Huuu~! It really is Grand Spirit Master Yao! Every time I see him, I can't get used to this suffocating Aura. It's unfathomable!"

All other World Spirit Master were inhaling sharp cold breaths.  They all completely forgot about being the center of attention. 

In the face of Grand Spirit Master Yao, all other thoughts were mere distractions. 

These World Spirit Masters only had one thought controlling their mind. That is, they need to completely heighten their focus; otherwise, they will have no chance to pass!

As a dead silence fell on stage, neither side made any move. 

Grand Spirit Master Yao remained utterly still, akin to an ancient statue. His deep gaze swept over the dozens of World Spirit Masters, only just briefly stopping on Cain and Kali.

Before anyone could notice, Grand Spirit Master Yao slowly turned his attention to his left while summoning a long, purple color Spirit Staff. 

Under all eyes, he slowly said, "For your Spirit Test, I will create a seemingly impenetrable Spirit Barrier that contains the specialized traits of 3rd Class Spirit Energy. Using your own Spirit perception and comprehension, you must use Spirit energy to slice open a hole, creating your own pathway through it. The time limit you have is only twenty minutes."

Grand Spirit Master Yao perfectly enunciated each of his words, causing his tone to seem incomparably grand. It was like his voice was infused with powerful Spirit energy.

And as the World Spirit Masters herd the rules, nearly all of them felt a tightening in their chest as cold sweat started to formulate upon their foreheads. 

The instructions may seem simple, but this was farthest from the truth. 

After all, Grand Spirit Master Yao was asking them to have Spirit Perception nearly beyond their Class level!

If one's not some freaking genius, how could they ever think of completing this? The bright shimmering confidence all World Spirit Masters once had started to rapidly dim.

An unfathomable existence like Grand Spirit Master Yao genuinely seemed impossible to go against. 

It was like taking a challenge from an actual Spiritual God!

The only ones remaining calm were naturally Cain, Kali, and Amber. Even before the event, Bellax went in-depth about the tremendous prowess that Grand Spirit Master Yao wields.

She heavily warned them to not get overconfident as that would only end in their miserable defeat. 

Following her advice, Cain, Kali, and Amber were pouring the complete and utter focus in overcoming this monumental challenge. 

As all World Spirit Masters mentally prepared themselves, a blinding purple light began shimmering from Grand Spirit Master Yao's Spirit Staff. The brilliant purple briefly engulfed the entire platform, forcing everyone to shut their eyes.

Though their eyes were closed, their Spirit Senses still managed to perceive an overwhelming Spirit Aura! The Spirit Aura from a 3rd Class Master was almost an otherworldly sensation. 

Cain, Kali, and Amber felt that it was a bit similar to taking a step inside another space dimension. 

Of course, no matter how powerful Grand Spirit Master Yao is, he was far from being comparable to the likes of the experts who ascended from this planet.

But, this 3rd Class Spirit energy carried slight traces of the sense of Space Power! 

Cain was especially taken aback. Out of them all, his Spirit Sense was the most sensitive to the power of Space. He wanted to spread his Soul Sense and perceive the sensation. 

However, just as quickly it came, the Spirit Aura rapidly receded within just a few seconds. 

At the same time, the blinding purple light quickly disappeared. 

Upon opening their eyes again, the World Spirit Masters were greeted with magical sight. 100 meters before them was a massively tall barrier of purple Spirit energy! 

The purple Spirit energy interwoven together like the beautiful waves of the ocean, creating an unforgettable scene.

Everyone, including Cain's group, stared on in considerable awe. With their powerful eyes, these World Spirit Masters felt as if they were staring upon the highest Spirit truths.

It was irresistible to not stare, almost like they were caught under a hypnotic trance. 

But this hypnotic trance was soon broken off. 

"Your hour starts right now." Grand Spirit Yao's indifferent voice jolted the World Spirit Master to full attention.

"Haah~." 

Nearly all World Spirit Masters took huge breaths as they began circulating all of their Spirit energy. The twenty minutes in their eyes seemed far too short. 

Just one moment wasted could mean the end of their test!

They all wanted to be perfectly prepared before making any rash attempts. Their strategy certainly was a viable one. 

But Cain, Kali, and Amber had different plans. 

"Hm? Are they actually going up now? Just what are they doing…?"

Under the other World Spirit Masters puzzled gazes, Cain, Kali, and Amber flashed forwards! 

In just a second, they crossed 50 meters, their speed causing the wind to fiercely whip around them.

No hesitation or any fear, the trio seemed like they wanted to break right through the Spirit Barrier with sheer force! 

But right as Cain, Kali, and Amber reached 50 meters, an heavy pressure suddenly dropped right onto them.

The trio stopped for all of a second. This pressure wasn't like the suppression from Qi or the Soul. But a pressure that stems directly from powerful Spirit energy! 

When training with Bellax, she showed them just what it would be like to experience Spirit pressure. 

And to deal with Spirit pressure, Cain, Kali, and Amber already knew what to do. 

The brief second they stopped caused even more confusion to burn the other World Spirit Masters' minds.

But they weren't even given a chance to react. 

Immediately the next second, Cain, Kali, and Amber's bodies burst forth a powerful wave of pure Spirit energy! Their Spirit Aura gushed, rolling over the entirety of the Spirit platform. 

"Wha?? Th-this Spirit Aura! They refined it to this degree?!" 

The other World Spirit Masters recoil in shock, nearly dropping all of their summoned Spirit energy.

Just their burst of Spirit Aura surpassed anyone of them! 

When comparing their own Spirit energy to the trio, it was like comparing a small pond to a massive lake. Their quality of Spirit energy was simply dozens of times inferior. 

The shock from this wasn't small at all. The World Spirit Masters had trouble processing what they were sensing, only helplessly watching Cain's group blast on without any hindrance.

Even Grand Spirit Master Yao paid intent attention to them. Just moments before, he was close to closing his eyes and waiting. But under this wave of Spirit Aura, his interest couldn't help but be piqued. 

There was even a slight glint twinkling his old eyes as his mind briefly recalled something critical.

Within a few more seconds, Cain, Kali, and Amber reached right in front of the barrier of 3rd Class Spirit energy. Staring into purple profoundness nearly pulled the trio into another hypnotic trance.

Their Spirit Sense could just vaguely perceive the complex Spirit energy properties swirling within the barrier. It was an intoxicating sensation, almost like their mind was slowly unraveling one life's greatest mystery.

Surely, if they had a generous amount of time, Cain, Kali, and Amber would be able to gain gradual benefits from slowly perceiving this Spirit Barrier. 

Unfortunately, they were on a strict time limit.

Before they let themselves get sucked in any further, the trio revolved their Martial Hearts, causing waves of refreshing Soul energy to calm their mental states. 

In moments, Cain, Kali, and Amber fell into a deep focus. Their eyes closed as they focused entirely on gathering the most concentrated amount of Spirit energy they could possibly muster. 

As seconds trickled on, the trio remained still as statues. Each of them blocked off any connections from the outside world, allowing themselves to fall into an independent, focused state. In total focus, it was like they were transcending to a separate dimension.

At the same time, on the outside, the other World Spirit Masters were gradually growing restless. They looked on with unbreakable curiosity, unable to focus on their own test anymore.

It was inevitable for them to be affected so much. The Spirit Aura they crafted and refined over dozens of years looks like it was going to surpass! 

And this wasn't by fellow rivals who equally perceived Spirit energy for years.

No, this was all done by youths who merely have at most three weeks of Spirit practice! 

Just these thoughts alone caused many World Spirit Masters' throats to spasm. 

How could anyone accept such a result?

And now, at the peak of their momentum, Cain's group had suddenly stopped. If even they needed to so seriously focus, the World Spirit Master was fraught that this test is even beyond their wildest dreams!

As seconds turn into minutes, this burning curiosity fiercely ate away at the other World Spirit Masters' minds. 

And soon enough, one overly eager man wasn't content with just watching.

"Dammit! I refuse to believe it!" 

That World Spirit Master wildly released his Spirit Aura and instantly tread forward. He burst forth, turning into a faint trail of green Spirit lights as he quickly reached 50 meters.

And immediately upon reaching 50 meters, that World Spirit Master suddenly stopped. He wanted to desperately push forward, but an immense Spirit pressure tightly locked his entire body!

"Shit! Ahh! Bre-damn!" 

That World Spirit Master crashed to the floor, his body struggling under the intense Spirit pressure. 

The Spirit pressure was akin to getting brutally crushed by a thousand-ton mountain! His flesh, muscles, and bones were getting painfully squeezed. The pain was immense, almost like he was getting his limbs slowly torn off! 

Seeing that World Spirit Master intensely struggled left the others staring back onto Cain's group. A completely new light swirled in their eyes about them. 

Some World Spirit Masters were even muttering to themselves. 

"Spirit Master Leo isn't just some randy… he's talented at the Late Layer. And yet…he ended up like that…are they really that advanced?"

Because of Spirit Master Leo's hastiness, it could be said that he invited a disaster upon himself. But even so, he was still circulating nearly all of his Spirit energy. 

At Late Layer Spirit energy, this would be a power all Profound Soul geniuses couldn't contend with. 

However, against this Spirit pressure, it was all for naught. 

If even someone like Spirit Master Leo ended up in such a position, how could they even fair? 

And above all, just what are Cain's groups' limits?!
