Chapter 512 Breaking The Record (1/2)

'Oh, my God! I can't believe fifteen days have gone by!' All of the disciples shared this thought when they discovered that both Ricky and Soar didn't come out of the Enlightening Pond after fifteen days had passed.

They threw secret glances at Louie, eager to see the expression flickering on his face at that moment. Fifteen days ago, he was so certain and made a bold statement that Ricky and Soar wouldn't be able to stay in the Enlightening Pond for fifteen days, but he was proven wrong as both guys had evidently exceeded his expectations.

Sensing the attention directed to him, Louie cast his head low, feeling the hot rush of shame creep into him. Flustered and embarrassed, he avoided everyone's gazes and wished for the ground to open up and swallow him whole. He knew he was wrong and shouldn't have said those arrogant words.

The disciples around him let out a small smile. They found his reaction so amusing that they had to bite their lips to stifle the laughter building in their chest.

Once their laughter subsided, they turned their focus on Ricky and Soar and wondered about their outcome. Everyone wanted to know the same thing: Now that they had broken the fifteen-day record, what level could the two have reached in the end?

It was easy to think that Ricky definitely broke the record initially established by Jasper. He was strong and capable, and they had no doubts that he could keep staying in the Pond for at least twenty-one days or more.

They had no misgivings about Ricky. What they were more curious to find out was how long could Soar stay in the pond.

”I'm telling you that Soar can definitely stay in there for seventeen days,” a warrior declared, his voice teeming with confidence.

”Just seventeen days? Soar is powerful and strong. I bet he can stay there for eighteen days!” a second voice added in a more confident tone.

”You are too confident about him! But I think he can only stay there for sixteen days,” another voice rebutted. The water in the Enlightening Pond was good for improving a warrior's cultivation base, but there was a terrible risk. The longer a warrior would stay in the pond, the more and higher pain he would feel. In other words, if you wanted to acquire immense benefits in the pond, you must bear the corresponding increasing pain. Most of the warriors who tried had been forced to get out and escape as the pain increased to the point that they could no longer bear it. In fact, a warrior almost lost his life due to the tremendous pain. He would have died if he hadn't been saved in time.

As he listened to their debates, Louie clenched his fists and kept his mouth shut, finally learning from his mistake. He couldn't afford to lose face again by having another wrong prediction. He seemed deep in thought, thinking of possible ways he could use to kill Ricky and Soar so that he wouldn't have to be humiliated in public again.

”Sir, how long do you think Soar can stay in the Enlightening Pond?” the Skyward Sword Spiritual King and the Array-shattering Spiritual King asked slowly. Having heard the heated discussion of the warriors, they found themselves becoming a little curious about the answer.

”Soar is talented. Not only is he among the first-class geniuses, but he also ranks at the top. I believe he could stay there for eighteen days,” the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor responded in a smooth and calm voice.

”Sir, as for Ricky, can you take a guess?” the two spiritual kings asked again, their faces brimming with curiosity.
