Long Tao soon exited the monument and proceeded towards the third test area of the hall. He hoped that his performance was good enough to gain the praise from the Keeper.
He soon entered a mysterious space that looked more like an old battlefield. The puppet appeared once again" We shall start the test of strength now. Try to sustain here as long as you can. I hope you manage to surprise us."
..............................................................
Long Tao anticipated some weights to be lifted; suddenly, a silhouette appeared before his eyes. He grimaced with shock. So, this was his test.
The fight continued, and as Long Tao defeated more sets of opponents, the number gradually kept on increasing. The puppet was glancing at the battle from time to time.
He hoped Long Tao managed to showcase a result satisfying the same level as the previous two. It was clear as a crystal that Long Tao was undefeatable in the same realm, no matter how high the numbers were.
Suddenly another lone silhouette appeared before Long Tao, but this one was different. It could use the Qi flow to augment and enhance the damage provided by its attack.
Long Tao didn't hesitate even a little, and soon the previous status quo of him being crushing his opponents with ease occurred again. The level was increased once more; the new puppets were of 2nd level of Qi child realm, but Long Tao still didn't feel ant difficulty.
.........................................................
"As expected, it is already possible for him to fight Practioner of 2nd level Qi child realm easily. Increase the level again. Although this guy is heaven-defying talent, I didn't expect him to have such tyrannical battle instincts too. Start sending the specialty puppets now, let's see where his limit lies currently. Soon dolls that were categorically proficient in different aspects started appearing in front of Long Tao.
The battle got intense. Long Tao proceeded to overwhelm with his brute strength. The battle continued on a don, and finally, the same condition was again reached.
The level of difficulty increased again. This time 3rd level practitioner started appearing and trying to kill Long Tao. "This should be his limit as per my estimation. It is already incredible that he managed to contend with warriors three-level above him, belonging to a different tier". But the scene shocked them again.
Long Tao continued to gain an advantage in the fight.
............................................................
" Is this still not his limit. Should increase the level to the 4th stage, you should know that there is a massive gap in the strength for every three layers. "
The figure shook his head and asked the puppet to continue the process. Soon Long Tao completed the battle and wiped the field clear of all the enemy puppets.
Suddenly he felt an intimidating figure in front of him, extruding an incredible might. Although the technique used by the dolls were the same but their ability to perform enhanced with increase in level.
........................................
" We need to stop. He has already proven his ability to us. There is no need for any further examination."
The figure glanced over and said in a shrill voice," Didn't I tell that we need to estimate the exact limit of his current strength. Only then can we plan and pave a proper route from him. "
" The stress of fighting an opponent with such a big gap in strength might prove to be adverse for his mental condition." The Keeper didn't bother and kept testing Long Tao.
........................................................................................
The difficulty continued to increase as finally, after a hard battle, Long Tao was able to defeat opponents at the 5th layer of the Qi child realm. If one could see the current view, they would be shocked by Long Tao's achievement. As the battle ended, Long Tao directly collapsed under fatigue.
Opening his eyes, Long Tao found himself amid the same large hall where he first appeared. Standing up, he could see two silhouettes staring at him. "you have successfully passed the test. You are now eligible to be the inheritor of the Crimson world. Do you accept?"
Long Tao speculated; all the life incidents that happened to him have led him to obtain an incredible set of fortune. One of which lies right in front of him.
"I accept the inheritance."
