Chapter 911 - Evolved Cherub (1/2)

The silver beams continued to sprawl forward. The Mountainous Tortoises did not seem to be bothered by the white figure as they swam on unfazed.

The silvery silky lights skimmed past the tortoises silently. They left no crack on them and disappeared into the tortoises’ bodies.

When Helian Mingjie began to doubt that the silver beams would have any effect, the tortoises were suddenly shredded into pieces. Even the seemingly impenetrable shells were dismantled.

The slaughter ended in less than ten seconds. Bai Li disappeared from the screen instantly and had probably returned behind Helian Mingjie right after that.

Helian Mingjie was clearly embarrassed and baffled at the same time.

“So, what do you two think? Does she pass the test?” Tung Yang asked.

“Yes!” Lin Qiao nodded.

“This… Of course, she passed!” None of the previous candidates would have passed if such a performance did not.

Helian Mingjie reckoned even he could not have withstood the silver beams. To be honest, he could hardly tell the ability used by Bai Li through the clip.

After Lin Qiao and Helian Mingjie consented, Tung Yang passed Bai Li’s qualification. He then took out a box and handed it over.

“Ms. Bai, I had this prepared beforehand. It’s yours now.”

“Thanks.”

“How thoughtful, Regent Tung.” Qin Feng expressed his gratitude.

“It’s nothing,” Tung Yang replied with a big grin. As compared to Qin Feng’s willingness to return to the Abyssal Ocean, everything else Tung Yang did—bringing along the examiners and the badge with him, was just a small courtesy. At the very least, his action showed that he indeed cared about Qin Feng. The test could still be carried out at East Sea City later on. But that would require Qin Feng and Bai Li to travel all the way there and Tung Yang wanted to save them the trouble.

Bai Li took down her B-tier badge and pinned on the new A-tier badge. She looked at it, then looked at Qin Feng’s badge. Without thinking much, Bai Li grumbled, “Your marshal badge looks way better than mine. I should also get a marshal badge one day.”

The words came out from Bai Li’s mouth with peculiar certainty. Even Helian Mingjie, who had constantly ridiculed them, did not dare to talk back this time. He admitted, though reluctantly, that it would be a piece of cake for someone of her caliber to attain the marshal position.

‘Why haven’t I heard of someone so powerful before?’ Helian Mingjie thought about it. But the more he pondered, the hazier Bai Li’s image became in his mind. Though Bai Li was standing right in front of him, Helian Mingjie could barely call out her name now.

‘Wait a minute!’ A sense of fear struck Helian Mingjie. He finally realized how powerful Bai Li was.

‘What an amazing consciousness masking effect. She is powerful enough to alter my subconscious thinking and impression. This lady is scarily dangerous!’

Helian Mingjie dared not look at Bai Li any further. Without purposely looking and thinking about Bai Li, the lady’s image in his mind became slightly clearer. However, he could no longer recall Bai Li’s face.

Such an outcome was enough to silence him.

Qin Feng grinned mockingly as he looked at Helian Mingjie’s body language. Such an arrogant person was usually the one that conceded the fastest when they have met a far more dominant being. Tung Yang might tolerate him, but Qin Feng would not. Qin Feng wanted to let Helian Mingjie acknowledge his own inferiority.

Though Bai Li’s consciousness was indeed influential, it was not to the level where it would automatically affect the mind of those around her. The truth was, Qin Feng had asked Bai Li to do it, and he had taught Helian Mingjie a lesson.

As he had guessed, Helian Mingjie was docile the rest of the way.

In their journey after that, they met other giant beasts. Qin Feng controlled the Glutton to kill the weaker ones while leaving the tougher ones in Bai Li’s hands. This allowed them to explore deeper into the sea.

“This is getting too risky. This is an area we have never ventured into before. We could bump into an S-tier sea beast here anytime,” Lin Qiao said with concern.
