Xu Sanshi cursed, "There's a second round, my goodness, just kill me already!"
Just one attempt had almost driven him to the brink of collapse, who would want to go through a second round!
The faces of the other Tang Sect members were also extremely unsightly; the first round had been so difficult to clear, this second round would seemingly be even tougher and more dangerous!
Tang Ya sighed helplessly, "But this is the only way for us to leave this place!"
If there were any other ways out, they would rather join forces to fight against the terrifying soul beasts than participate in these challenges!
Huo Yuhao's pale blue eyes brightened, "Now the knife is in someone else's hand, and we are the fish on the chopping block, with no power to resist."
Bei Bei moistened his dry lips, "Let's try to get through as best as we can. Since it's the Valley of Cosmic Love, then the key point must be in the word 'love'!"
Following that, everyone exchanged glances and nodded in agreement...
At the same time, another voice rang out, "The second round of the adventure begins now, there are no exemptions for this challenge!"
A gold and silver light shone upon the bodies of the eight people once more and then disappeared atop this circular platform!
When everyone snapped back to reality, they suddenly found themselves within a huge pattern, which had eight slots!
Each slot looked different on the outside, and it was obvious that they contained different things, filled with a sense of crisis and mystery...
At that moment, a cold voice echoed in the minds of Qian Yu and the others...
"In this challenge, each of you has one chance to proceed. When the announcement to start is made, please go to the center of the pattern. The roulette will start spinning the moment it senses your aura. When it stops, various commands will appear. Complete them, and you can pass. If not, you will have to embark on a deep adventure. Of course, the mortality rate for the deep adventure is extremely high!"
"Now, you have three minutes to discuss, after which the game will start immediately!"
Jiang Nannan frowned and was the first to speak, "This thing... it's completely based on luck!"
Bei Bei said solemnly, "I don't know if everyone has noticed, but there are kiss marks on it. It's very possible that it will require two random people to kiss!"
Tang Ya chimed in, "Yeah! Doing this might cause conflicts. That is to say... if it's not one's partner that's drawn, the situation could be really awkward!"
Who would be willing to let their partner kiss someone else?
Of course, there are special cases, like two women of the same gender kissing — naturally, that would be a pleasant sight!
But if it were two men... need more be said? Most likely, they're going straight into a deep adventure!
Ma Xiaotao said earnestly, "So, everyone, prepare yourselves mentally in advance. If you're faced with an irresistible situation, we'll just have to put up with it!"
Understanding dawned on everyone's face, and they nodded, "Yeah!"
If they wanted everyone to survive without loss, trust was indispensable!
Before long, the cold voice sounded again, "The three-minute discussion time is up. The second round of challenges begins now, starting with Huo Yuhao."
Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched, and he said wordlessly, "I'm the first?"
He then walked towards the center of the roulette...
Behind him, Xu Sanshi encouraged, "Yuhao! Don't be a coward, set a good example for everyone! We'll be your support!"
Bei Bei added, "Yuhao! At least let everyone get a feel for what's happening!"
Tang Wutong's beautiful eyes flickered a few times, "Senior Brother Xu, Big Brother Beibei, isn't it a bit unfair to say that?"
Qian Yu said indifferently, "There's no other way, someone has to be the guinea pig."
Hearing Qian Yu's words, Tang Wutong's beautiful eyes almost subconsciously looked at his left hand, and she said with guilt, "Qian Yu, your left hand, it's all my fault..."
Qian Yu smiled and used his remaining right hand to gently caress her hair, "It's okay, it's not your fault. I just haven't told you about it, and the damage isn't too severe."
Seeing Qian Yu's smile, Tang Ya felt a twinge of heartache and inquired, "Qian Yu, you don't have to hide it from us. Your soul power rank must have dropped by at least five levels, right?"
Ma Xiaotao also chimed in, "Yeah! I also feel that Qian Yu's soul power rank has fallen a lot, at least, maybe two or three levels more than me!"
Xu Sanshi's eyes widened, "Dropped five levels?"
Bei Bei spoke gravely, "Moreover, if Qian Yu has lost his left hand, I fear even his soul power rank will be limited. To break through to Hyper Douluo... I'm afraid..."
Bei Bei did not spell it out, but everyone already understood his meaning...
Qian Yu gave a bitter smile, "Sister Tang Ya and Sister Xiao Tao, you both guessed it. My current soul power rank should be around level 88."
After losing an arm, his soul power rank had dropped six levels! That is to say, he fell from a level 94 Titled Douluo to a level 88 Soul Douluo!
The reason for such a significant drop was because Qian Yu's left arm had contained a soul bone, imbued with a certain amount of Divine Power!
...
Having reached the center of the roulette, Huo Yuhao saw that Bei Bei and the others were not paying attention to him, and his face couldn't help but darken...
The next moment, the roulette under his feet, as if sensing someone's presence, emitted a blinding light, and Huo Yuhao only felt a surge of pain coming towards him...
But it wasn't too intense, akin to being punched in the chest...
Immediately after, the roulette beneath his feet began to spin slowly, and the sound of its rapid rotation quickly drew everyone else's gaze...
They all stared intently at the roulette, afraid it would stop at an unfavorable symbol...
After lingering for what seemed an eternity, the roulette spun for dozens of seconds before gradually slowing down, eventually stopping on a symbol of a sword and dagger...
"Is it combat?"
The Tang Sect members breathed a sigh of relief; if it was combat, it wouldn't be too bad!
But the question now was, who would they be fighting against?
If they were to fight among themselves, they would surely struggle to take action!
A cold voice sounded, "Challenge content, duel. The roulette will select another person as your opponent in the next round. Whoever it is, you must defeat them! If you fail, you will proceed to a deep adventure challenge; if successful, the challenge is cleared. In either case, you must not hold back, or else the penalty is death."
At that moment, everyone's gaze shifted between Huo Yuhao and Qian Yu, with a lingering feeling that Qian Yu would be chosen...
"Roulette, select again!"
As the words fell, the massive roulette began to spin rapidly once more...
It finally stopped at Bei Bei's position!
Under everyone's surprised gazes, Bei Bei looked at Huo Yuhao with serious eyes, "Yuhao, since we can't hold back against each other, let's fight with all our might!"
Huo Yuhao nodded, "I understand! Big Brother Bei Bei!"
The next moment, their forms emitted golden light and vanished from the spot in an instant...
