Dugu Bo stood up shakily and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
It hissed as it walked up to Xu Xin and the other two.
"Lord, what is that statue? How can it be so powerful?"
"Five punches, I only took five punches from him before I was knocked out."
Dugu Boda gasped for breath, saying in bewilderment, "How could a titled Douluo like myself only take five punches... How humiliating!"
Xu Xin was also a little confused. He didn't know what was going on inside. He only knew that these statues were probably prepared for him.
Now that his elders had inexplicably gone in and been beaten out, Xu Xin's interest was piqued. It would be more interesting if they were stronger; otherwise, it would be a waste of the fighting techniques he had acquired.
"I got punched and sent flying," Ah Yin said, blushing. She realized she was a bit of a noob.
"I'll take three punches," Bi Ji said, somewhat embarrassed.
Hearing what the two said, Dugu Bo, who originally thought he was bad, immediately felt better. Five punches, hey, that seems pretty good.
The three of them looked at Xu Xin with embarrassment, wondering how many punches the Palace Master could withstand if he went in.
As the group looked at each other in bewilderment, Liu Erlong's voice rang out.
"I'm so angry!!"
When Liu Erlong came out, she looked furious and her whole body ached terribly.
With a stomp of her foot, Liu Erlong walked towards the four of them.
"I'm so angry!"
Standing in front of the four people, Liu Erlong looked at them with a flushed face and heavy breathing.
"Erlong, how many punches did you take?" Dugu Bo asked curiously.
Ah Yin and the other two also cast curious glances at her. Judging from her angry appearance, she must have been quite upset.
"How many punches? I fought him for several rounds, and I don't know how many punches I took. I was always on the defensive and couldn't beat him at all."
Liu Erlong said angrily, "That person is really strong."
How many rounds?
We're the ones with the worst interpersonal skills.
Ah Yin and the other two felt ashamed; they still had a lot of practice to do...
"By the way, what level of opponents did you guys face?"
Xu Xin asked, "According to what the others said, if they were all at the same level, Liu Erlong wouldn't be able to fight for several rounds. Obviously, they are different."
"Same level as me." ×4
The four of them said in unison.
After saying that, the group exchanged glances. Realizing they were facing different opponents, they quickly felt relieved, and their earlier disappointment vanished instantly...
Xu Xin nodded slightly; that made sense.
"So, Lord Master, what exactly is the purpose of this statue?"
Dugu Bo asked curiously, feeling that this prince was not simple.
"This is for my inheritance, a trial for me. The fact that you can enter it means it will also be useful to you."
"How did it feel to go in just now? Were there any restrictions?"
Xu Xin explained, then continued to ask.
"Besides not being able to use soul skills, it seems there's nothing else."
"My martial spirit was able to fight this stone statue a few times because of my experience in the City of Slaughter, but I was constantly being suppressed."
Liu Erlong sat down and recalled for a moment before speaking.
She was inside just now, possessed by three fiery dragons, her body radiating flames, but those flames seemed to have no effect on that person at all. If she hadn't trained in the City of Slaughter, she probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even three punches.
Ah Yin and the others nodded in agreement; they felt the same way.
Ah Yin's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Without soul skills, it's just a grass with vigorous vitality. Even if it can cast some entanglement spells, it's just a tickle to Ghost Shadow General.
Bi Ji corresponds to the level 97 Ghost Shadow General. She can withstand three punches only because of her ferocious beast body.
As for Dugu Bo? He has a martial soul attached to him, so he can hold on for a while, but that's all he can do.
Defeating General Ghost Shadow is an impossible task.
The main problem is that their physical condition is too poor. They are not like ferocious beasts, and they also lack fighting skills, so they are completely passive and can only take hits.
That's the Ghost Shadow General, weak? Not at all. Each one of them is a physical force capable of suppressing powerful figures.
If you go in by yourself, you'll have to use the new form that Tara gave you to defeat these Shadow Generals.
Although my physique has undergone the tempering of ice and fire, it is still somewhat inferior to that of the Ghost Shadow General. It can be used for honing, but if I want to defeat him, I will have to use the new form.
"So, Xu Xin, what is the origin of these stone statues?"
Ah Yin was about to reach out and touch it, but when she thought of what had just happened, she immediately withdrew her hand.
Xu Xin slowly walked behind Ah Yin's position, looked at the general statue with a red face, long green hair, and covered in black armor, and said softly, "This is General Rairakku, corresponding to Sister Ah Yin's mask. He is very strong in combat."
"A green face, a massive build, and armor covering his body—this is General Midori. It corresponds to Sister Bi Ji's mask."
"Body reddish-yellow, with sharp claws and wings on its back, this is General Kiiro. It corresponds to Sister Erlong's mask."
"Purple body, sharp snout and fangs, protected by black armor—this is General Murasaki. It corresponds to Grandpa Dugu's mask."
"And these generals are the original owners of your masks, and four of my (Tara's) nine generals."
Xu Xin slowly introduced these generals to the group.
Their nine generals each possess unique abilities and fighting techniques.
What Xu Xin needs to do is defeat them and make himself stronger.
Ah Yin swallowed hard. So her mask came from them. How powerful must their original abilities have been?
"Xu Xin, if that's the case, could we release these statues? I think they would be good as training subjects for the students."
After thinking for a moment, Ah Yin said, "This stone statue can be used as a training ground for the Shadow Palace. It can change according to the strength of the person who enters."
Xu Xin thought for a moment and said, "It should be possible, but to enter, we must go through layers of screening. We can use this stone statue to train our core personnel."
Xu Xin was not stingy with the people of the Shadow Palace. The future of a great power always lies with the younger generation. They are the creators and guardians, and the inheritors are the young people of the future.
The group nodded in agreement. They shared the same fate as the Shadow Palace, so naturally they would prioritize the Shadow Palace's interests.
This stone statue is meant to nurture powerful successors for the Shadow Palace, so naturally, not just anyone can enter.
"Let's go, come inside with me and take a look," Xu Xin said.
After saying that, the group walked toward General Rairakku's statue.
The five people reached out and touched it, a black light flashed, and the five people disappeared instantly.
As the group was enveloped in darkness, they reappeared in an open space.
In the center of the arena stood a fierce-looking, burly man, his entire body flushed red with flowing green hair, radiating a terrifying aura.
The general, clad in black armor, had a crimson circle in front of him.
Besides that, there is nothing else superfluous here.
