Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 1762

Hearing what Crosby said, a huge commotion immediately rose amidst the Spiritual Emperors. After all, the holy beast of the Sky-suppressing Mansion was one of the five holy beasts of the Ethereal Region. Moreover, its strength was not inferior to that of a Spiritual Emperor at the peak stage. In fact, it was even more powerful.

"All eyes up front. It is about to start." As these words left Crosby's mouth, he kept making various gestures with his hands in front of his chest. Then, a beam shot towards the center of the square. In an instant, the air just above the square started to stir up. Immediately after, the beam of light expanded, forming a huge light hole. As everyone's eyes widened, a shadow of a giant beast slowly emerged from the light hole, exuding an overwhelming aura at the Emperor Realm that filled the surroundings.

Upon the appearance of the beast shadow, everyone present was stunned. They could not help but feel frozen and have a sense of submission before it.

The beast had lion-like features with a horn on its head. It had bright red fur all over its body, and its two sharp fangs looked very deadly.

"Oh my god. This is a holy beast at the Emperor Realm? It is freaking powerful!"

"So, this is the widely-talked Fiery Lion of the Sky-suppressing Mansion..."

"I am considering myself very lucky to witness such a holy beast like this with my own eyes."

Since the Fiery Lion belonged to the Sky-suppressing Mansion, not many people were able to see it before. Therefore, almost all of them were shocked, and its presence was eye-opening for everyone.

The moment the Fiery Lion stepped out of the light hole, it instantly spread its domineering aura that enveloped every Spiritual Emperor standing there.

As the low-grade Spiritual Emperors perceived its unrestrained strength, they could not help but tremble in fear and almost fall to the ground.

However, this was just the beginning. From here on, the tremendous power of the Fiery Lion would gradually increase, and it would exert invisible stress on the candidates that would make it difficult for them to hold on. In fact, even middle-grade Spiritual Emperors should have difficulties in holding on in front of the beast for two straight hours.

Crosby announced earlier that the time limit for this test was two hours. Thus, most of the participants had thought that as long as they did their best not to flinch and hold on during that time, they could pass the test. However, they were yet to experience the dreadful stress from the Fiery Lion. By that time, they would instantly think that they had underestimated its power.

The stress from the Fiery Lion was constantly superimposed. Hence, the longer they persisted, the greater damage it could cause to the candidates. It also meant that it would be useless to just merely hold on. They would need to counteract the stress that was suppressing them if they really wanted to pass the test.

The only way for one to pass the test was to deliberately remove and fight off the stress by releasing the power of the Spiritual Domain through the candidate's Imperial Soul.

However, since the low-grade Spiritual Emperors rarely had the time to cultivate the power of the Spiritual Domain, they were naturally at a disadvantage.

So, the only ones who had a huge chance to overcome the test were the middle-grade and high-grade Spiritual Emperors. But it did not necessarily mean that all of them could pass it.

At this time, as the test started, almost every middle-grade and high-grade Spiritual Emperor did not show fear and concern before the ferocious Fiery Lion.

On the other hand, more than half of the low-grade Spiritual Emperors were already ghastly pale and were shaking in horror.

Meanwhile, Rocky still tried to keep a low profile. But of course, it could be easily observed that compared to the other candidates, he was unusually relaxed. He just sat on the ground with his arms crossed over his chest, and he stared at the Fiery Lion with just a blank expression on his face.

Obviously, the other low-grade Spiritual Emperors and even the middle-grade Spiritual Emperors did not have the guts to look directly in the eyes of the Fiery Lion at all.

Eventually, time flew by and an hour had already elapsed.

During this time, several low-grade Spiritual Emperors had already given up because of the continuous stress that they faced. But still, most of them tried to struggle very hard and continued the test.

After another fifteen minutes, a few more low-grade Spiritual Emperors quitted from the test.

Soon enough, only fifteen minutes were left before the time limit of two hours was up.
