Or to put it another way.
The person who set up this trial...
was too perfunctory when creating this trial!
Gu Xing watched coldly as Leia collapsed on the ground, this once high and mighty Angel Race heir now in utter disarray.
Her grand battle robe was torn apart by the backlash of the Guardian Law, with golden bloodstains lingering at her lips, even struggling to support her body seed unusually difficult.
Nevertheless, Gu Xing felt no sympathy for her.
Even though she hadn’t openly targeted him, yet...
she acted quite secretly!
Moreover, what surprised Gu Xing was...
this so-called strongest totem-level genius of the young Angel Race, was so weak when facing life and death.
Carefully scrutinizing Leia’s trembling wings and unsettled gaze, he suddenly understood sothing.
A flower born in a greenhouse cannot withstand the winds and rain!
From her birth, Leia possessed the enviable ten-wing talent, cherished by her tribe from a young age, never having truly experienced mortal trials.
When forced to choose between "self-preservation" and "sacrifice" by the Guardian Law, her inherent weakness was completely exposed.
She dared not gamble on whether she could comprehend the Law, nor risk her life in such a gamble.
"Crack."
Just then, a crisp sound of breaking pulled Gu Xing’s thoughts back to reality.
The protective light cocoon enveloping Liu Li and Lanny began to crack, with pure Power of Laws flowing into their bodies like a stream.
Though the two took different paths....
the outco led to the sa result!
They both received recognition from the Guardian Law!
Soon, under his gaze.
Liu Li was the first to open her eyes, her ten wings transford into radiant gold, each feather flowing with the weighty Guardian Law.
Gu Xing checked Liu Li’s information.
He discovered that following this trial, Liu Li’s mastery of the Guardian Law had elevated by more than a level.
Yet what made him frown was that this elevation had minimal impact on Liu Li’s overall strength.
This was the sa result he had anticipated before entering the Trial Space.
However, Gu Xing didn’t mind these.
After all, the important thing was gaining the fortune of the Angel Race, further enhancing Liu Li’s talent.
Liu Li’s talent had now reached the pinnacle of Myth Level, if it were to elevate again....
To what extent would it reach?
Beyond Myth?!
"Master!"
At that mont, while Gu Xing was pondering, Liu Li timidly approached Gu Xing, like a child who had done sothing wrong.
She quietly observed Gu Xing’s expression, finding he showed no anger, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
Then, she planned to stealthily move beside Gu Xing.
However...
Gu Xing’s gaze suddenly darkened, firmly locking onto the delicate figure tiptoeing soundlessly.
"Liu Li."
Two words, neither loud nor soft, yet carrying undeniable weight, instantly freezing Liu Li in place.
She slowly turned around, her face squeezing out a sowhat flattering, yet clearly guilty and awkward smile, her bright blue eyes darting around, not daring to et Gu Xing’s gaze.
"Master..." Her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s hum, "Do you... have any instructions?"
Seeing this face full of "I’ve made a mistake," Gu Xing choked on all the reprimands he had ready.
He initially intended to lecture her, to tell her that in any situation, her priority should be self-preservation, and she didn’t need to recklessly guard him with her life.
Yet before the words left his mouth, he gave up.
This girl appeared obedient, yet stubborn at her core like a mule.
She understood those grand truths, but would never act on them.
Gu Xing took a deep breath, his chest rising with it, exhaling that worry heavily, eventually turning it into a gentle sigh, shaking his head.
"It’s nothing." He softened his voice, "Just next ti... don’t be so foolish."
Liu Li imdiately blinked her large eyes, showing a purely innocent, even slightly perplexed expression, as if she completely didn’t understand what Gu Xing said.
Witnessing this scene, Gu Xing felt sowhat helpless, yet could only let Liu Li be.
anwhile, Lanny’s breakthrough stirred a greater commotion.
The edges of the six wings behind her manifested two golden phantoms, rapidly materializing under the infusion of Power of Laws.
"Buzz——!"
At the mont the eighth pair of wings fully ford, Lanny’s aura surged, formally entering Half-step Totem Level!
The instant she opened her eyes, her first reaction was to look at Gu Xing, her eyes filled with remorse.
"Lord Gu Xing, I’m sorry..." Lanny murmured.
She knew well it was Gu Xing who granted her the qualification to stand here, yet in the end, she "betrayed" that grace.
Gu Xing simply waved his hand indifferently: "You made the correct choice."
He truly did not mind.
Lanny had a temporary contract with him, known for only a few days.
If she indeed forsook her tribesn for gratitude, it would instead make him look down upon her.
And just as both finished absorbing the Guardian Law, the Trial Space began to tremble violently.
The surrounding scenery peeled away like a faded oil painting, revealing the dark red space underneath.
The second trial was about to begin.
Leia struggled to rise, hope rekindling in her eyes.
She had failed the Guardian Law’s test, but the Destruction Law...
Would be her domain!
Since it’s destruction, it naturally involves battle!
Her Totem Level strength!
How could she possibly not be a match for two Monarch Level opponents?
....
At this mont, outside at the Holy City Square, the crowd remained imrsed in a solemn and reverent atmosphere, completely unaware of the life-and-death crisis that occurred just a steps away.
Milo, the Order Angel, gazed up at the towering statue of the twelve-winged angels, speaking calmly:
"Liu Ye, in your view... does Lord Liu Li stand a chance this ti?"
The War Angel Liu Ye, upon hearing this, rely turned slightly, casting a glance at him.
Without answer.
Yet the tranquil and confident expression on his face said it all——
If even he didn’t willingly trust his own daughter, then who in this world was worthy of trust?
As for the title of heir to the Angel Race, whether or not it ant nothing to him.
He held only one thought in his heart:
As long as Liu Li wished to compete, then even if the Angel God Himself descended to appoint soone else as the king.
He would dare mobilize his millions of angels army under his command, forces the whole race to abolish and change destiny, pushing his daughter to that throne!
The reason he had previously been indifferent to the heir dispute,
was rely because... no one worth his attention had appeared.
anwhile, on the other side of the square.
The Guardian Angel wore a solemn expression, having silently ford an alliance with the Wisdom Angel.
With Jia Bailuo stripped of heirship, his previously placed hopes were completely shattered.
Among the five Peak Angels, he held the deepest ties with the Wisdom Angel.
After much consideration, he ultimately decided to yield under him, jointly assisting Leia.
After all, Leia was undeniably a Totem Level presence.
Though the rules of the Land of Trial might not solely determine victory by strength,
a Totem Level heir placed beside two Monarch Level heirs.
Who was better or worse, anyone with discernnt could see.
"Leia should be able to win, shouldn’t she?"
The Guardian Angel was sowhat concerned, this was his final hope.
"Rest assured, Lord Leia, even if unable to obtain Guardian Law’s recognition, she can already manipulate a trace of Destruction Law!"
"Such talent is bound to receive recognition from the Destruction Law!"
