Chapter 3386 My Mind Is Made Up
Poseissi's beautiful eyes gazed toward the heavens, her expression complex as she spoke, "Perhaps, even I cannot see through him."
That Xu Sheng, wrapped in layers of divine glow…
But what was puzzling was that he was only a Titled Douluo, it shouldn't be possible for him to reach such a state!
Then, considering that he came from the future, everything makes sense!
The Sea Dragon Douluo was even more shocked, "Grand Elder, you actually don't deny it!"
He had merely mentioned it in passing, but it seemed the former also thought the same!
The Grand Elder chuckled lightly, "Whether I deny it or not, no matter who his true identity is, I have a premonition that he is trustworthy!"
"Alright, before his Trial of the Sea God is about to begin, I think there is something else that you need to be told!"
The Sea Dragon Douluo did not ask further but said in a low voice, "Grand Elder, please speak!"
All that was known about Xu Sheng had already been shocking; he didn't think there was anything else that could stir his emotions!
Poseissi didn't beat around the bush and spoke very directly…
"Xu Sheng, he seems to be the Saint Heir of the Martial Soul Hall!"
In that instant, the little favor that the Sea Dragon Douluo had for Xu Sheng dissipated at once, and a thick murderous intent emerged in his eyes…
"All those from the Martial Soul Hall should die, no matter who they are!!"
Poseissi frowned slightly, apparently not expecting the other to lose his composure even in front of her, "Sea Dragon, calm down!"
The Sea Dragon Douluo, looking at the former, retorted angrily, "Grand Elder, how can I remain calm? This Xu Sheng turns out to be from the Martial Soul Hall, he must not be allowed to participate in the Trial of the Sea God!"
"With his talent, he will surely become a major threat to Sea God's Island in the future. In my opinion, he and his guards should be slain right here!"
He had never been merciful to the people of the Martial Soul Hall!
"Sea Dragon, although Xu Sheng is the Saint Heir of the Martial Soul Hall, he willingly revealed this identity to me. I presume he bears no hostility toward Sea God's Island!"
However, the Sea Dragon Douluo didn't see it that way at all…
He rebuked loudly, "Grand Elder, that Xu Sheng is probably just taking advantage of your kindness to gain sympathy. The words of the Martial Soul Hall can never be trusted!"
"Haven't we always thought this way?"
He had never before protested against the former, but this time, he truly could not bear it!
Finally, even Poseissi's gaze turned colder, "Sea Dragon, are you even disregarding the words of me, the Grand Elder?"
Hearing the anger in her voice, the Sea Dragon Douluo pondered over it and, after much hesitation, sighed…
He bowed his head and said, "Grand Elder, I lost my composure."
It seemed that taking action against Xu Sheng was impossible!
Poseissi took a deep breath, "Alright, go notify Xu Sheng to come here. The ceremony for the Trial of the Sea God is all prepared."
"Remember, no fighting, or else, you know the consequences!"
The Sea Dragon Douluo clasped his hands in salute, "Yes, Grand Elder."
Having said that, he turned and left, with a hint of anger…
No sooner had he left than the other six Sacred Pillars arrived in quick succession…
They said in unison, "Grand Elder, we have arrived!"
Poseissi simply nodded slightly, "Hmm, good that you're here!"
The Sea Maiden Douluo couldn't help asking proactively, "Well… Grand Elder, what do we do now?"
Poseissi glanced at her and replied, "Wait for someone!"
The Sea Spear Douluo snorted coldly, "Wait for someone? Who else is worthy of making you, the Grand Elder, wait? I will go and fetch him!"
The Starfish Douluo reminded, "Hai Mao, can you keep quiet for a bit? The Grand Elder hasn't said anything, so don't interfere on your own!"
The Sea Maiden Douluo expressed some discontent, "Tch, the one all the Grand Elders and such are waiting for must be that Xu Sheng, but isn't his face a bit too big?"
Sea Spear Douluo agreed, "Exactly, exactly. It's clear he's the one to undergo the Trial of the Sea God, yet he dares to be so dismissive. He's showing far too little regard for the Grand Elder!"
Sea Horse Douluo, propping up his chin in thought, said, "Well... I think there's nothing wrong with what Xu Sheng is doing. This is the palace where the Grand Elder resides; how could he dare to barge in recklessly?"
Not to mention outsiders, even the inhabitants of Sea God's Island and Soul Masters would be sentenced to death if they presumptuously trespassed!
Poseissi covered her forehead, "Hey, would you all quiet down a bit!"
For some reason, she felt a headache coming on today...
Hearing her words, the Sacred Pillars also promptly closed their mouths...
They certainly didn't want to be scolded, or to be pulled aside by the former for individual training...
The thought alone made them wish for death!
After waiting for several minutes, Sea Dragon Douluo was the first to return, and Xu Sheng and Gui Mei arrived shortly after...
Immediately, he spoke respectfully, "Grand Elder, and all the Sacred Pillars, I've kept you waiting!"
Poseissi merely motioned with a hand...
All the Sacred Pillars apart from Sea Dragon Douluo felt their impression of Xu Sheng improve significantly...
"Hey, this kid is actually quite polite, not bad at all, no wait... could he actually be Xu Sheng?"
"I never imagined that Xu Sheng, whose name echoed through the arena, would be such a young child; it's somewhat hard to believe!"
"No... it can't be, that Xu Sheng defeated a Soul Douluo before everyone's eyes, and he's just a kid!"
"Hiss... I feel like my perception has been shattered, hey kid, you really are Xu Sheng, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng quickly responded, "Yes, Sea Spear Sacred Pillar!"
Sea Spear Douluo felt somewhat proud, praising, "Not bad, not bad at all. You even know my title, it seems you're not entirely clueless about Sea God's Island."
Then, he looked at Gui Mei, "But... who is this guy?"
The other Sacred Pillars also showed a trace of curiosity...
Xu Sheng pursed his lips, "I almost forgot to introduce him to all the Sacred Pillars, he is the Elder responsible for protecting me."
Gui Mei, under scrutiny, felt the pressure immense, and said nothing...
Sea Dragon Douluo, arms crossed, not hiding his hostility in the least, let out a cold "hmpf"...
This, of course, the Sacred Pillars all noticed...
However, they all tactfully refrained from probing further, simply assuming that Sea Dragon Douluo was dissatisfied with Xu Sheng and company taking so long to arrive!
However, Poseissi clearly didn't give them the chance to continue talking...
She immediately interrupted the conversation, "Since you've all made brief introductions, I won't waste words!!"
After speaking, she looked at Xu Sheng with utmost seriousness, "Xu Sheng, are you sure you want to participate in the Trial of the Sea God? It's still not too late to back out now, but once you join, changing your mind could be fatal!"
Even she would be powerless to ensure his safety during the Trial of the Sea God!
Life or death would be in his own hands!
Xu Sheng took a deep breath and responded earnestly, "Thank you for the reminder, Grand Elder, but my mind is made up!"
Now, to achieve another breakthrough to God Rank, he could only rely on the Trial of the Sea God!
After all, he had yet to encounter the Destruction God in this world!
