The formation in the Dragon Emperor Palace was so powerful that it was suffocating. Now that they finally had a place to rest, they had to conserve their energy. After all, the Dragon Emperor didn't set a time for the assessment.
A dragon youth at the True Immortal realm turned around and sighed at them before continuing forward.
The half-human girl was in the same line as them.
"Hey, my stomach hurts."
The person who was sitting comfortably on the chair and enjoying the spiritual pill suddenly covered his hand. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes as he felt extreme pain.
This cry seemed to be contagious. When he shouted, the others felt the same. They were in excruciating pain and their magic power was scattered.
A golden light flashed in the Azure Dragon Hall and sent the dozens of young dragons who were resting outside the Dragon Emperor Palace, indicating that they had completely failed the assessment.
There were no shortcuts in the path of cultivation. It was full of traps. Some benefits on the surface were just traps set by others.
It was very easy to be led astray by the benefits in front of him. Such a person could not cultivate the right path.
As for those who were attracted by the benefits of the Azure Dragon Hall, no matter how talented they were, Huang Hao would not want them. This was because his Dao heart was not firm enough.
On the last steps in front of the Dragon Sovereign Palace, ten youths were climbing. Ancient jade was scattered, and the purple jade stairway was under their feet.
Everyone felt as if they were carrying the blue sky on their backs, and they were pressed down until they could not breathe.
"Boom!"
With every step the remaining people took, the pressure on their bodies increased greatly. They were like weaklings whose dragon tendons had been pulled out. Immediately, five people rolled on the ground and lost their qualifications.
The remaining five people continued to move forward with the pressure that was ten times greater than what they could withstand.
Half crawling and half walking, he entered the Dragon Sovereign Palace with great difficulty.
The floor of the Dragon Emperor Palace was paved with white jade, inlaid with golden beads, and carved into lotuses.
Huang Hao's face was calm as he said indifferently,""Anyone who can walk in front of me can become my disciple.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he revealed the body of a nine-clawed true dragon and released a slight pressure on these young dragons.
Instantly, two people were afraid of Huang Hao's dragon might and fainted on the spot.
Out of the tens of thousands of dragons who participated in the test, only three of them were still conscious in the Dragon Emperor Palace.
Huang Hao looked at these people with approving eyes, able to reach this great hall of people, no matter how they said, they are all people with strong perseverance.
The three of them felt as if there were a hundred thousand mountains pressing down on their bodies, and a pressure from their bloodline erupted from within.
One inside and one outside, it was like two huge millstones that were grinding away at their spirit. Everyone could not hold on anymore and knelt on the ground. However, their gazes were determined and they wanted to crawl over.
"Come here. The dragon is a proud race. Those who only know how to crawl don't deserve to be called dragons. If you can come before me today, you don't have to kneel when you see me in the future. You just have to bow and greet your master.”
Huang Hao encouraged.
However, the pressure on the three of them was too great. It was as if a giant hand was pressing them down on the ground.
Among the three, only one dragon girl struggled to get up. Although she couldn't straighten her back, she didn't want to fall down. She staggered toward the dragon throne at the top.
One step, two steps…The dragon girl stepped on the steps below the dragon throne. When she stepped on the last step, celestial music immediately sounded. Five-colored light filled the sky, and seven-colored divine light appeared.
The young girl successfully ascended to the ninth step and stood a foot away from Huang Hao. The array formation that she had set up suddenly changed.
"Very good. You are the first person to walk in front of this emperor. I will keep my promise and accept you as my disciple. What is your name?”
The dragon girl was panting as she walked over. Her feet were already covered in blisters, and a piercing pain was coming from the broken blisters. Her entire body was covered in blood, and her clothes were soaked in blood. Her knees and toes were badly mutilated.
The young girl was about to speak, but she felt her mouth dry and could not say a word.
All of a sudden, the young lady saw a drop of water mixed with three colored lights drop on her forehead. Her entire body instantly felt warm. Her originally dry magic power surged at this moment, and the wounds on her body healed in the blink of an eye.
"I…I am Ao Ling, the eighth daughter of the Dragon King of the East Sea.”
Ao Ling reported his name to Huang Hao and bowed to him.
Huang Hao looked at Ao Ling. This woman had bright eyes and white teeth, like a lotus flower emerging from the water. She was extremely beautiful, but her temperament was completely different from that of the White Lotus Fairy.
Fairy White Lotus was pure and refined, while Ao Ling's expression was firm and determined, and she had a spiritual will.
"Dragon Emperor, please don't!"
Just as Ao Ling was about to bow to Huang Hao, a young dragon spoke up to stop him.
"Oh, why can't I accept a disciple?”
"Her bloodline isn't pure. She isn't a pure-blooded dragon."
The dragon youth revealed the fact that Ao Ling's bloodline wasn't pure. At the same time, he pointed out that Ao Ling was the child of the Dragon King of the East Sea and a mortal woman. Her status was low and she couldn't be the disciple of the Dragon Emperor.
Hearing this, Huang Hao was somewhat satisfied. In the Dragon Clan, which valued the purity of bloodline, Ao Ling's impure bloodline meant that she was not valued, and might even be viewed with hostility.
Such people grew up in a bad environment and would not have a sense of belonging to the dragon race.
Once they acknowledged him as their master, their sense of identity would surpass their sense of belonging to the dragon clan.
Such a person could not only be trained as a disciple, but also the next Dragon Emperor if he was smart enough!
Of course, Huang Hao naturally wouldn't tell these thoughts to outsiders. He only snorted coldly.
"If you say you won't accept it, then you won't accept it. Could it be that what I said was a joke and doesn't count? Or should I, the Dragon Emperor, listen to you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the dragon clan youth below was so frightened that he was trembling with fear.
"Bravery is useless. If you can walk in front of me, I can also take you as my disciple. I don't care about your birth, I only care about your character and perseverance.”
Hearing Huang Hao's words, the dragon youth stood up with his dragon might. He stared at Ao Ling with anger and staggered forward.
Huang Hao shook his head. He could tell that the other party was only angry for a moment. He wanted to prove himself and belittle Ao Ling. He was excited again and did not have the heart to pursue Dao. It was difficult to last.
"Plop!"
Just as Huang Hao had expected, the dragon youth could not hold on any longer after taking three steps. His body almost collapsed. He thought that it was not worth it to kneel on the ground and get up again just to destroy his body in a moment of anger.
"It seems that no one has any objections. Ao Ling will be my second disciple from now on, and will also assume the position of Dragon God. Her status will be equal to the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas.”
Huang Hao announced his decree to place a portion of the dragon race's fate on Ao Ling. This way, her cultivation speed would also increase.
