"Hello, everyone." The Star Lady smiled at them in a lively manner.
The Sky Snow Swordsman and the Poisonous Mathematician responded politely, while Su Yu nodded with a smile.
"Since you've all met each other, let's go to see the leader now. He will personally observe your martial arts test." The guide smiled warmly.
Everyone nodded slightly, and there wasn't much change in their expressions.
With their cultivations, joining the Sea Wolves Pirates was a sure thing.
The only difference was that the five of them would be assigned different positions.
As far as they knew, every group of pirates usually had two deputy leaders and ten Helm Masters.
The deputy leaders' power was second only to the leader, while the Helm Masters had to listen to the deputy leaders' orders and control a fleet.
Among the five of them, only two could become deputy leaders, while the other three would be reduced to Helm Masters.
None of them were willing to listen to another person while being a half-step Path Master.
Therefore, in the following martial arts test, Su Yu, the Sky Snow Swordsman, and the others wouldn't hold back.
Led by the guide, they came to the deck.
On the spacious deck, there was an arena, which had been sealed by the Path Master. All the experts could compete on it.
Above the arena, there was a throne floating in the air. Sitting on the throne was Sea Wolf Dao Master, who was frowning.
The Sea Wolves Pirates had suffered a great loss in the battle several years ago.
They still didn't show any signs of recovering.
On the other hand, Xie Xiaoyue had the foresight to lead her pirates out of the encirclement first. She had escaped unscathed.
Now, Xie Xiaoyue was the number one pirate among the top ten pirates, and she seemed to be dominating the Pirate Alliance.
In theory, this open recruitment of pirates should be an opportunity for her to turn the tables.
However, what made Sea Wolf Dao Master despair was that he had heard that several famous geniuses in the nearby starfields had chosen to join Xie Xiaoyue.
This made it difficult for Sea Wolf Dao Master to feel happy.
"Leader, I've brought them here."
Sea Wolf Dao Master came back to his senses and looked at Su Yu. He was slightly taken aback.
He naturally remembered Su Yu, the half-step Path Master who had overdrafted his body, picked up by his two former deputy leaders.
He had thought that Su Yu had died in the battle. He didn't expect that Su Yu was still alive and had appeared in front of him again.
A calm look flashed across his eyes as he looked at the other two.
When he discovered that it was the rather famous Poisonous Mathematician and Sky Snow Bladesman, his gloomy face revealed a trace of a smile.
There were still two good seedlings.
When he looked at the Sword in the Stone, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Sword in the Stone? A Half-step Daolord ranked in the top 100!
Such a person actually defected to him?
Dao Lord Sea Wolf was overjoyed.
However, when he looked at the Star Maiden at the end, his pupils constricted, and he swiftly stood up from his throne with wild joy in his heart.
Star Girl?
Every generation's Star Lady of the Lotus Sacred Star was at least in the top 20!
His strength was comparable to any of the heirs of any of the Seven Ultimate Civilizations!
Such a person actually came to seek refuge with him?
After all, he was a Daoist Master. After a brief moment of ecstasy, he quickly regained his composure and said calmly, "Hmm, let the examination begin."
With a flick of his sleeve, a stone tablet appeared.
Light flowed on the surface of the stele, and wisps of spatial energy spread out from it.
"Draw lots to determine the order." Dao Lord Sea Wolf waved his hand, and five shining jade slips appeared. "There is a number on each of them, from one to five. The number you get will determine your rank in the examination. Do you have any objections?"
Everyone was silent for a while. The Sword in the Stone jumped into the air and grabbed one of the jade slips.
After erasing the radiance on it, it showed the number three!
Then it was the Star Maiden's turn. She grabbed the jade slips on the rightmost side, and the radiance on it disappeared, revealing the number four.
"Hehe, the fourth."
Sky Snow Bladesman and Poisonous Mathematician each took one jade slips. They were ranked second and first, respectively.
Only one jade slips was left, and it was obvious that Su Yu was ranked fifth.
After the ranking was done, Poisonous Mathematician went to the front of the stele and placed his hand on it. The rotating radiance immediately sucked him in.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Poisonous Mathematician fell out of the stele in a sorry state. He was gasping for breath, and there were many wounds on his body.
Tick!
A series of numbers appeared on the stele behind him.
It showed that he had a strength of 1,800 points.
Sea Wolf Path Master nodded with satisfaction. "Not bad!"
"Inside the stele are nine remnant shadows that I left behind, and each of them represents a stage of my strength. You will fight with my remnant shadows from the past, from the weakest to the strongest, until you are defeated and fall out of the stele. Based on your performance in the stele, your strength will be automatically evaluated."
Sea Wolf Path Master explained the rules.
The arrogant Sword in the Stone asked, "What if I defeat all of your remnant shadows?"
Upon hearing this, Sea Wolf Path Master didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed heartily. "If you are really that capable, I will let you be the leader."
The ninth remnant shadow in the stele was none other than Sea Wolf Path Master!
Who could fight him, who was at the level of a Path Master?
"The second one, begin."
Sky Snow Bladesman entered, and after the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, he came out in a sorry state. He shook his head at the crowd with a bitter smile.
The stele behind him let out a tick, and the number 2,100 appeared.
"I'm sorry." Sky Snow Bladesman laughed at himself.
He was quite satisfied with his overall performance in the stele.
He even revealed that he was stronger than Poison Calculator.
However, with people like the Sword in the Stone and Star Lady in front of him, his strength was not enough.
"Not bad!" Sea Wolf Path Master gave a positive evaluation.
He then looked at the Sword in the Stone with anticipation. "Next, the Sword in the Stone!"
The Sword in the Stone stepped into the stele expressionlessly.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, there was still no movement from him.
After the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, the stele's vortex finally shook violently.
Suddenly, a sharp Sword Qi shot out from the inside.
The Sword in the Stone held the stone sword with both hands and held it horizontally across his chest as he flew out.
Poison Calculator and Sky Snow Bladesman were secretly shocked.
He had lasted twice as long as them, which meant that he had defeated more remnant shadows.
Tick —
A string of shocking numbers flashed on the stele!
4,700!
That was more than twice as long as them!
Two times more!
Sky Snow Bladesman swallowed his saliva and looked at the Sword in the Stone with deep respect.
As expected of the famous Sword in the Stone. His combat strength was just too strong!
He and Poison Calculator were no match for the Sword in the Stone even if they worked together.
"Great!" Sea Wolf Path Master clapped his hands and laughed. He was extremely satisfied.
Back then, Jiang Nanyue and Du Buchen, the two deputy leaders, only had slightly more than 3,000 martial strength.
The Sword in the Stone was just too much stronger than them!
The Sword in the Stone shook his head regretfully. "I'm not good enough."
He was still not satisfied with such results, which showed how high his expectations were.
"Next, Star Lady." Sea Wolf Path Master's voice trembled, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.
