“Human, prove your value!”
The translation of that dragon roar was this meaning.
There was finally a reply. The 200,000 points were worth it.
Sun Mo felt wild joy in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged. After all, when facing ancient giant dragons, he had to be calm and leave a good impression. If he was too earnest, others might feel he was a simp.
But after Sun Mo waited for 15 minutes, there were no more dragon roars.
“That’s it?”
Sun Mo was speechless. Could this giant dragon be a pet?
Were they afraid to communicate with humans?
“What value?”
Sun Mo asked again, but he didn’t get any reply. This caused him to sink into deep thoughts.
Giant dragons were high-tier lifeforms. To them, speaking with a human was like speaking to ants. It was a blow to their statuses.
Hence, the humans had to display that they had the capability to converse with them.
“Do you want me to challenge the unlimited challenge mode?”
Sun Mo asked again.
There was still no reply, but the meaning was clear without words. (If you don’t even have the intelligence to judge the thoughts of the giant dragons, just scram quickly.)
Truthfully speaking, if it wasn’t for the fact that Sun Mo had broken the speed record, he wouldn’t be able to get any reply even if he learned the ancient dragon language.
Sun Mo returned to the Draconic Human Great Hall again.
“Teacher Duanmu, can you introduce that challenge mode to me?”
Sun Mo sincerely consulted.
“I know this!”
Xianyu Wei raised her hands and had a look of agitation on her face. She finally could watch her teacher’s gorgeous battle skill again.
“In the unlimited challenge mode, the entire trial area will be sealed by an invisible energy so challengers basically cannot exit. They can only continue fighting round after round, and there’s only a three-minute interval between each round.”
“This means that no matter how heavy your injuries are, you can only rest for three minutes. With such rules, even a man made of iron would be exhausted to death.”
Sun Mo was speechless.
“In the trial area, a red-colored draconic human would randomly spawn. If you defeat it, you can temporarily remove the invisible seal on the area and choose to continue or leave. But once you choose to continue, you have to wait until you kill the next red draconic human.”
Duanmu Li added.
“How is the strength of these draconic humans? Would a type that is impossible for me to defeat appear?”
Sun Mo was very cautious.
“Nope. Theoretically speaking, everything that appeared could be defeated.”
Duanmu Li was sure on this point.
“Do you know the longest recorded rounds it took for a red draconic human to appear?” Sun Mo frowned.
Honestly speaking, this challenge was very difficult.
“41 rounds.”
Duanmu Li saw Sun Mo’s hesitation and advised, “Teacher Sun, you should try challenging it. After killing these draconic humans, they will ‘drop’ a ball of light that’s pure energy essence. If you absorbed the energy essence into your body, it would be hugely beneficial.
“Naturally, this is also a great opportunity to make the name of us great teachers from the Central Plains famous.”
“Sun Mo, act within your competence!”
Mei Ziyu was worried. She didn’t want Sun Mo to take any risk, but she also knew that given Sun Mo’s pride, he wouldn’t shrink back.
“Teacher Sun, are you going to try the unlimited challenge mode?”
“Do it! We will cheer for you!”
“Every ten rounds you fight, the school will reward you with a heaven-tier alchemy pill. The more you fight, the better the rewards will be. Teacher Sun, why don’t you give the challenge a try!”
The teachers and students at the side tried their best to persuade when they saw Sun Mo’s will wavering.
Among these people, some of them hoped to secretly learn Sun Mo’s cultivation arts by watching.
“What are the four of you standing there in a daze for? Quickly get out and give the space up to Great Teacher Sun.”
A 5-star great teacher berated the four people currently fighting the draconic humans in the trial areas.
…
“I’ll go and give it a try!”
After Sun Mo asked about the mode detailedly, he went down and sliced his finger so his blood would flow.
Before the blood could land on the ground, it was absorbed by the crystal ball floating at the ceiling. After that, a light screen manifested and covered the trial area.
Woosh~ Woosh~ Woosh~
Three balls of light landed. After they exploded, three draconic humans appeared. They roared and charged toward Sun Mo.
“…”
Sun Mo was speechless. (Is the script wrong?)
Even the spectators were shocked.
“Why would three enemies appear in the first round? Isn’t this too difficult?”
“Could it be because Teacher Sun has broken the speed record?”
“Oh no, would he screw up now?”
Chaos was everywhere in the great hall.
Usually speaking, the combat strength of a single draconic human summoned from Sun Mo’s blood should be approximately equal to him. Now that there were three, it meant that the difficulty tripled. It was clearly a tough fight.
But it was too late for regret now.
“Teacher!”
Xianyu Wei’s eyes turned red. She looked at Duanmu Li. “What should we do?”
“You should believe in your teacher.”
On the contrary, Mei Ziyu calmed down.
“Xianyu, look at your teacher’s expression. Don’t lose face for him.”
Mei Ziyu berated.
Xianyu Wei didn’t understand, but when she looked at Sun Mo, she discovered that his expression was calm and he was fully focused on the three draconic humans. He was completely immersed in the battle.
Scared?
There was no such word in Sun Mo’s dictionary.
“Xianyu, watch properly. At such a time, you must not panic. You have to first ascertain the strength level of the three enemies and find the one who constitutes the greatest threat to you.”
Sun Mo brandished his wooden blade and started to explain as he fought the draconic humans.
“After that, dodge it and kill the weakest one.”
Sun Mo executed the Wind King Divine Step, leaving behind shadows as he dodged the formidable attack from the first draconic human. He shifted to the right and slashed out numerous blade shadows, aiming for another draconic human.
Eighteen Words Order!
Pak! Pak! Pak!
The wooden blade struck different parts of the draconic human’s body, causing it to stumble.
The other two rushed over and mounted a joint attack.
In an instant, the great hall fell silent as everyone was dumbfounded.
(It can’t be, right?)
(You are still teaching on the spot despite such a situation?)
(Are you really not afraid of death?)
But very soon later, they no longer dared to imagine things wildly. Everyone was focused fixedly on the trial area, seeing how Sun Mo soloed three draconic humans.
Because the combat was too intense, both sides didn’t display any fanciful moves. They acted to kill with each attack.
“Naturally, if you have an opportunity to kill them, you can change your battle strategy. Also, please pay close observation because sometimes the weakest one of your enemies can even become your ‘ally’.”
After Sun Mo spoke, he exploded the head of the draconic human on the left with a blade slash.
“He could finish one off so quickly?”
The crowd was shocked.
“Become an ‘ally’?”
Xiao Ri`nan was also among the crowd. When he heard this, there was a puzzled look on his face.
Xianyu Wei didn’t understand either.
“Teacher Sun used his movement art to get into a good position, so he could use the weakest one as a meat shield to split apart the other two draconic humans.”
Duanmu Li explained.
“It appears to be one against three, but the number of enemies that fought Sun Mo at each time was only two. Naturally, if you want to achieve this point, you have to have a brilliant observation skill and good movement art.”
Duanmu Li praised. Watching Sun Mo’s fights was always such an enjoyable thing to do.
Because it was the unlimited challenge mode, it was not known how many rounds he had to fight. Hence, Sun Mo didn’t hold back and directly went full power, settling the combat in two minutes.
At this moment, the entire place was stunned.
“So the Teacher Sun who broke the speed record that day wasn’t in his ‘final form’* yet!”
Xiao Ri`nan was shocked.
