Chapter 812 - The second test (1/2)

After Ghost said that, she flew forward like a swallow and got into the frying pan o hot oil.

PLOOP!

Some oil splashed out.

“Little girl…” Duck Emperor was so shocked that his duck’s eyes were round and wide.

On the other hand, Xiao Luo’s heart thumped violently in anxiety. He feared something bad would happen to Ghost.

The spectators gasped. Every single Baiyue Nation citizen was in a stupor. They found it hard to believe that the little girl dared to jump into a hot frying pan of hot oil with no hesitation. Was she not afraid that she would turn into human jerky?

“Wow, this feels good! It’s like taking a bath in the hot spring!”

Ghost sat inside the frying pan, up to her neck in hot oil. Of course, she held onto her small red umbrella as well to protect her from the sunlight.

Huh?

Xiao Luo breathed a sigh of relief. He was elated she was alright, and it seemed like Ghost wasn’t afraid of magma at all.

“Alright! Hey, little girl, this duck here is proud of you, haha, haha…” Duck Emperor laughed out loud.

“That girl wasn’t afraid of getting into the frying pan with hot oil… How is that possible?”

“Did she use True Inner Force?”

“No, I can’t feel any true inner force flowing at all.”

“If she’s not using any True Inner Force to protect herself, then shouldn’t she be afraid of the hot oil scalding her bare skin?”

“Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!”

The Baiyue Nation citizens gathered there were awed. They would never have imagined that Ghost would dare get into the frying pan.

“That’s great, this means they’ve passed the first test,” Funing said excitedly in the grandstand.

Beside her, the grandmaster frowned as she stared in disbelief at Ghost, who looked like she was taking a bath in the frying pan. She just couldn’t figure out who this girl was or where she came from. How could she still be fine even after jumping into the frying pan without the use of her True Inner Force?

Was the fire not strong enough?

She waved her hands toward the fire underneath the frying pan, sending a stream of wind that blew directly at the flames and increasing its intensity. The flames rose roughly two to three meters high. She continued to wave her hands, fanning the fire to a greater height. Soon, the frying pan was completely engulfed in flames, and nothing else could be seen.

“Demonic witch, what are you doing?” Duck Emperor was being serious for once and shouted at Grand Master in the grandstand.

Grand Master glared at him coldly, and said, “I’m the one who sets the rules. Why do I need to explain anything to you?”

Xiao Luo’s eyes glowered with rage. He did not want to come into any sort of conflict with Baiyue Nation, but their grandmaster was forcing his hand.

“I’m fine, don’t worry!”

Just as Xiao Luo was getting ready to confront Grand Master, Ghost’s voice could be heard coming from within the flames, sounding like silver bells.

She is still alive? Even with this?

That couldn’t be true. The flames had already exceeded the area of where the frying pan was. There was no difference between being in the pan or a sea of flames!

All the Baiyue Nation citizens were lost for words and found unbelievable.

Grand Master clenched her fist tightly. Her face turned dark as she gritted her teeth in absolute frustration. She had initially thought that this frying pan test was a surefire plan to kill them, but she couldn’t believe her eyes when they could pass this test so easily. It was undoubtedly beyond her wildest imagination.

“Grand Master Mother, I won’t allow you to use any more tricks like this!” Funing hissed, overcome by a deep sense of vexation.
