Chapter 2071 The Constellation Society Will Disband Today! (1)
A formidable presence descended upon them, casting its weight upon Cang Yu and Little Qing'er, rendering them pallid and immobilized.
Astonishment appeared in their eyes.
The overwhelming pressure was incredibly strong, signaling the presence of a powerful being in this place.
Cang Yu's heart churned with restlessness. They had barely left their world and they were already confronted by an unimaginably mighty guardian. It was no wonder that throughout the annals of time, none from their world had been able to escape solely through their strength.
Boom!
At that very moment, another aura surged forth, ancient and profound, providing some reprieve from the oppressive force for Cang Yu and Little Qing'er.
Even Wang Teng, who possessed the Primordial Consciousness of no small measure, found himself struggling. In comparison to the aura emanating from the great hall, his strength seemed minuscule.
His confidence, previously swelled by his surging power, was now abruptly extinguished by a deluge of icy reality.
F**k!
Never had Wang Teng anticipated such an overwhelming presence within this grand hall!
When he entered the Poison Erosion World from this great hall, he didn't feel anything.
Wang Teng activated his Real Eye instinctively and looked around the great hall, searching for the source of this formidable aura.
As his gaze swept across a corner, the figure of an elderly man caught his eye. Aside from this, he beheld nothing else.
This elder appeared entirely unremarkable, devoid of any apparent uniqueness. He was seated cross-legged with an energy of twilight enveloping his entire being, as though nearing the end of his days.
However, Wang Teng didn't dare to underestimate him.
Even his Real Eye couldn't see anything. This elder was a formidable warrior who was much more powerful than him.
"Huh?"
At that moment, the elderly man let out a soft, raspy exclamation. His aged voice slowly reached their ears.
"Young one, what is your name?" He asked.
"Wang Teng!" Wang Teng replied.
"Wang Teng, that name sounds familiar to me," the elder pondered for a moment before suddenly recalling, "Ah, I remember now. You are the one from this generation who ascended to the Star Rankings."
"Yes," Wang Teng replied honestly.
"You brought these two snakemen out?" The elder didn't say anything else and asked.
"Yes," Wang Teng nodded and explained, "They awakened the bloodline of the Naga Race, showing great talent. I plan to bring them back to the Stellar Academies."
"Oh!" The elder expressed some surprise and, at that moment, slowly opened his eyes, looking toward them. "Naga Race!"
"Young ladies, unleash your bloodline for me to see."
The elder's voice now carried through spiritual fluctuations, and even though Cang Yu and Little Qing'er did not understand the Common Universal Language, they grasped his intent.
However, they didn't trust outsiders so they glanced at Wang Teng.
Wang Teng nodded reassuringly.
Only then did the two of them release the innate power of their bloodlines, each conjuring the spectral visage of the Primordial Oceanic Serpent.
"Indeed, it's the Naga bloodline, but the bloodline power of this little girl seems to be stronger. As for the other, it appears her bloodline power was initiated through external means," the elder remarked, his gaze flickering briefly.
"Your observation is astute," Wang Teng replied with a smile.
"Since you've awakened the Naga bloodline, your talents are indeed commendable. You are both qualified to enter our Stellar Academies," the elder concluded.
Wang Teng's face lit up with a hint of delight. It seemed this matter was going to be a success.
"Very well, you may leave." The elder closed his eyes once more, paying no further attention to the three of them. It seemed that allowing them an audience had been a considerable favor.
Wang Teng respectfully bowed to the elder before departing from the grand hall with Cang Yu and Little Qing'er. They made their way outside, proceeding towards the valley.
Cang Yu and Little Qing'er heaved a sigh of relief. They knew that they had passed the first test successfully.
There were many Stellar Academies students in the valley. They were surprised when they saw Wang Teng and his companions.
In particular, Cang Yu and Little Qing'er left many in awe.
Those who could do missions here were all frequent visitors of the Toxic Eclipse World. They were familiar with the snakemen.
They had seen many beautiful snakewomen before.
However, seeing such extraordinarily alluring and exceptional snakewomen like these two was a first.
They couldn't tear their stares away from Cang Yu and Little Qing'er.
"Let's go," Wang Teng shook his head in resignation. Although he had expected some reactions, he hadn't anticipated their responses to be quite so exaggerated.
Their self-control was severely lacking.
If only they could be as composed as he was!
Moreover, Cang Yu and Little Qing'er had changed their appearances. They weren't as stunning as before.
Nevertheless, their presence still managed to create a considerable stir.
It appeared that their beauty and charisma were indeed too exceptional to be concealed entirely, even with the changes they had made.
Wang Teng had no desire to draw any more attention to themselves. He intended to depart with Cang Yu and Little Qing'er.
At this moment, a young man accompanied by several others approached and greeted Wang Teng with a smile. "Excuse me, which stellar academy are you from?"
"What's the matter?" Wang Teng didn't reply to him and frowned.
"I'm Ding Jie from the Fourth Stellar Academy, and I was just wondering if you'd be willing to sell these two snakewomen?" Ding Jie maintained his composure even in the face of Wang Teng's impatience and continued with a cheerful tone.
"They are not my personal property, so there's no question of selling. You should move along," Wang Teng replied dismissively, unwilling to entertain such a frivolous request.
"You must be joking. They are merely two snakewomen. Since you brought them here, naturally, they belong to you. How about doing me a favor and handing them over?" Ding Jie emitted a hint of pressure, his demeanor still genial as he approached Wang Teng with a smile.
