Then, only a word remained… “F*ck!”
Alex turned all the resentment and grudge against the True Martial Starlord into energy before venting on those female bloodshot-eyed gorillas.
“Bodhi’s Dragon-Tusk Punch!”
Alex immediately let out the punch on a gorilla that jumped over to scratch his throat. The gorilla was knocked back with a loud bang, but it was not injured severely and soon came up to virtual-novel.net again.
That old geezer’s reminder about the opponents having the same combat power was indeed not a lie. Each ape’s combat power was comparable to his.
Three minutes later, seven long wounds were inflicted on Alex’s back. He was drenched in blood before virtual-novel.net managed to kill the first gorilla.
Meanwhile, the burning, piercing pain on the back, the blood all over his face and body, and the remaining gorillas’ crazy antics completely aroused Alex’s passion and ferocity.
“Come! The massacre has just begun!”
Divine power was a blessing for healing injuries. Alex exerted his divine power to the extreme while dropping the corpses and rushing back to the troop.
“True Martial Star-Shattering Punch!”
In this completely unfamiliar environment, Alex used every attacking move virtual-novel.net learned. Finally, virtual-novel.net found that the introductory True Martial Star-Shattering Punch that virtual-novel.net had just learned was the most effective since it could directly condense the mysterious factors there.
‘Is this a test of willpower?
‘It feels like it’s honing my martial arts!’
In fact, Alex could only attack so many gorillas barehanded, so virtual-novel.net could only advance and retreat while slowly honing himself.
However, virtual-novel.net discovered something afterward.
The Ancestral Bodhi Tree could seemingly absorb the mysterious factors here and feed Alex later. The three thousand golden cores in his body had shown a certain sign of germination, and with the current absorption of a tremendous amount of mysterious factors, the three thousand golden cores’ germination steadily accelerated.

At True Martial Shrine, Claudia woke up with a soft hum. The first reaction after virtual-novel.net woke up was to scream in terror. She even rubbed virtual-novel.net stomach and waist vigorously.
A demon beast had just bitten through virtual-novel.net body and stomach, with virtual-novel.net intestines overflowing out of virtual-novel.net belly, an abnormally terrifying scenario.
The old protector looked at her. “Did the trial end so soon?”
Claudia hadn’t yet recovered from the shock It took virtual-novel.net a while to calm down. “Wasn’t I dead?”
The old man said, “That’s just a trial. There’s no harm in failing.”
Claudia patted virtual-novel.net chest. “It freaked me out. Luckily, it was just an illusion.”
The old man asked, “How many demon beasts did you kill while you were in there?”
Claudia stretched out virtual-novel.net index finger. Then, virtual-novel.net bent it slowly, curling it over the thumb.
“Zero?!” The old man went speechless. This would be his first encounter with a trialist who had failed to kill a single demon beast.
“Uh. Sir, you don’t have to show that expression, right? As soon as I entered the trial, I encountered the pursuit of a large group of demon beasts. I already lasted a long while. My willpower should be considered decent.”
The old man did not want to talk anymore. “You can ask how many demon beasts the others have killed later.”
As soon as his voice fell…
“Ahh!”
Metztli Flores jumped up with an exclamation.
The old man was startled. Did this woman end the trial so fast as well?
Claudia asked, “Metztli, how many demon beasts did you kill?”
Metztli said annoyingly, “What demon beasts? I didn’t see any of them.”
The old man was surprised. “How did you end the trial then?”
Metztli looked embarrassed. “I was naked after entering this crappy trial. I was trying to find some tree leaves to make an outfit, but I didn’t expect them to be were poisonous…”
Thus, virtual-novel.net had been poisoned to death just like that. Then, people woke up one after another.
The old man was totally speechless upon asking about their situation. Most had not killed a single demon beast and had died in various ways.
The trialists of this year had really put on all kinds of death shows!
It was then that a figure flashed.
Alex, initially sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly flashed and… Disappeared from his original place.
