Chapter 1602 - 1600: Feishuang Command, Shadow Fighting Saint
Although the ice block was only about less than fifty meters from where Wang Dadong jumped, it was an incredibly large and hard block of ice. Even Wang Dadong, with his Sacred Body, felt extremely sore upon landing.
If it were an ordinary person, they would likely have been smashed into a pulp.
However, this Feishuang Battle Saint is really perverse; the test was to make people jump off a cliff.
Though, in truth, below the cliff was a huge transparent block of ice, not a bottomless pit. Yet above fifty meters, mist veiled it, making it impossible to see the ice below, leading one to think it was a bottomless cliff.
Most people wouldn’t have the courage to jump down.
"Congratulations, you passed the test." After a few seconds, a masked woman emerged from the mist and casually tossed Wang Dadong a white jade order token.
The jade card had the same design as the Jin Yu Order and the Mingshang Order that Wang Dadong obtained, with the words "Feishuang" engraved on it.
This must be the Feishuang Holy Order of the Fei Shuang Temple.
"Thank you." Wang Dadong cupped his fists towards the other party.
Who would have thought that in less than half a day, he would have obtained three Holy Orders. It seems that these Holy Orders are not as hard to get as the legends say.
Getting three Holy Orders in half a day seems simple, but it’s actually not simple at all. For example, Mu Jin, if she hadn’t admired Wang Dadong’s Cloud-Leaping Lightness Technique, the conditions she would have proposed might have been very difficult. And for the Fei Shuang Temple test, jumping from a bottomless cliff requires immense courage, unless you already knew that there was a transparent ice block a hundred meters below.
Moreover, Wang Dadong must collect all nine Holy Orders to exchange for the Ten Thousand Year Frost. Failing any test from any Battle Saint means failure.
So, he hasn’t even reached half of his goal yet.
The next hall, You Ying Hall.
The Holy Temple of the Shadow Fighting Saint.
Mu You Ying is a Battle Saint somewhat familiar with Mu Jin, and Mu Jin has already given her a heads-up, so the test shouldn’t be too difficult.
When Wang Dadong arrived at the You Ying Hall, Mu You Ying was already standing at the entrance, dressed similarly to Mu Jin, in a snow-white robe, with her hair piled high atop her head, the hem of her skirt fluttering gracefully, resembling a fairy.
The Shadow Fighting Saint, whom Wang Dadong had met at the Jin Yu Hall, seemed even colder than Mu Jin, never uttering a single word from start to finish.
There was no expression on her face, as if she was indifferent and uninterested in anything.
Mu You Ying seemed not to notice Wang Dadong’s arrival, standing with hands behind her back, gazing at the endless Snow Mountain, as if lost in thought.
"You Ying Elder." Wang Dadong called softly.
Mu You Ying did not turn around, only said gently, "I don’t know how you persuaded Mu Jin, but I will give her face, so my test for you will not be too difficult."
"Thank you," Wang Dadong expressed his gratitude.
Mu You Ying slowly turned around, her white figure swiftly darted towards Wang Dadong, the long skirt fluttering like a celestial being descending, extending two fingers directly towards Wang Dadong’s forehead.
A strike from a Battle Saint is no small matter; even for Wang Dadong, being Hermit-level, he wouldn’t arrogantly think he could withstand Mu You Ying’s strike with just his body.
However, he did not dodge, because he didn’t sense any killing intent from Mu You Ying’s eyes.
Thus, Wang Dadong stood still, allowing Mu You Ying’s slender fingers to touch his forehead.
As he expected, the touch had no offensive power, no pain, only a faintly cool temperature emanating from Mu You Ying’s fingers.
It was even somewhat pleasant.
"Alright, you’ve passed the test." A few seconds later, Mu You Ying withdrew her fingers, her voice still devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
"That’s it? I’ve passed the test?" Wang Dadong was stunned.
Even with Mu Jin’s help, it shouldn’t have been this easy to pass the You Ying Hall test.
Mu You Ying did not answer Wang Dadong, directly taking out the Holy Order of the You Ying Hall.
It was a dark green token.
"Thank you, You Ying Elder." Wang Dadong put away the You Ying Order and cupped his fists towards Mu You Ying.
As the other party had already offered the You Ying Order, it certainly wasn’t a joke; it seems that the Shadow Fighting Saint’s test is simply this easy.
He initially thought Mu Jin’s influence wouldn’t be significant. Now it seems her influence is substantial, allowing him to pass the test so easily.
Mu You Ying turned around, continuing to gaze beyond the Snow Mountain, as if even the Battle Saint test couldn’t stir any emotions within her.
Wang Dadong again cupped his fists, then turned and left. With four Holy Orders in hand, it seems obtaining nine is not impossible.
Next is the Liu Yun Hall.
This is also a Battle Saint quite familiar with Mu Jin. Since the Shadow Fighting Saint made it easy, it’s likely that Liu Yun Fighting Saint Mu Yun Jin won’t trouble him too much either.
Liu Yun Hall.
Liu Yun Fighting Saint is also a female, named Mu Yun Jin.
Among the Nine Great Saint Halls Elders, five are female. This is the last female elder, also the last Battle Saint more familiar with Mu Jin. For prior tests, Wang Dadong kind of took a shortcut, but for the remaining tests, he’ll have to rely on strength and luck.
"Please Liu Yun Fighting Saint, pose the test." Wang Dadong arrived in front of Liu Yun Hall.
After a few minutes, no one came out from Liu Yun Hall.
"Please Liu Yun Fighting Saint, pose the test." Wang Dadong called out again after a few more minutes.
His call was met with silence again.
Is there nobody in Liu Yun Hall? Or perhaps the Liu Yun Fighting Saint is not in Liu Yun Hall?
But even if the Liu Yun Fighting Saint isn’t present, someone should be guarding Liu Yun Hall.
After all, even in Ming Shang Hall and Fei Shuang Hall, someone was there.
Then there’s only one possibility left: the other side is deliberately avoiding him.
Since they were being disrespectful, Wang Dadong wasn’t too polite either. He gathered his Inner Strength and shouted loudly towards the entrance of Liu Yun Hall, "Please Liu Yun Fighting Saint, pose the test!"
The sound was like a great bell, louder than a train whistle, shaking down a fair amount of the accumulated snow in the mountains.
Finally, his shout brought someone out from Liu Yun Hall, still a masked woman, though seemingly older, and like a woman who had just reached menopause, pointing at Wang Dadong impatiently and scolding, "What are you yelling about? Has someone died in your family?"
In the face of such rude response, Wang Dadong just slightly frowned, cupping his hands towards the woman and said, "I am here to participate in the Battle Saint test."
"Test? The Battle Saint is resting and has no time for you!" The woman waved her hand dismissively.
