Even those guys in the Demon Armor Group said that the Divine Spirit model couldn't be used, yet Li Xiu was able to use it. This made Sha Chu, who had already held Li Xiu in high regard, still somewhat surprised.

One must know that many of the researchers and Magic Armor Masters in the Demon Armor Group were top-tier Magic Armor Masters and researchers absorbed from around the world over the years, including some who had once topped the world rankings for Magic Armor Masters.

They all said that the Divine Spirit Magic Armor couldn't be activated, yet Li Xiu insisted on choosing the Divine Spirit model, and actually managed to activate it, which was quite surprising.

"Who was this guy before?" Sha Chu was pondering, but suddenly felt her body rapidly descending.

The Demon Light Pattern on the Divine Spirit Magic Armor suddenly all extinguished, and after losing power, it immediately plummeted.

Li Xiu frowned slightly. He had clearly already activated the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, so why did it suddenly cut off?

With a thought, his Spiritual Sense surged, forcefully reactivating the Divine Spirit Magic Armor that had severed its connection with his Spiritual Sense.

The Light Pattern on the magic armor lit up once more, allowing Li Xiu and Sha Chu to rise again just before hitting the ground.

Li Xiu landed steadily on the ground, set Sha Chu down, and disassembled the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, turning it into the state of a Magic Armor Box.

The technical level of the Demon Armor Group was no worse than Ximen Guan's. Some techniques were even more advanced, but in terms of armor size, they were far inferior to the magic armor made by Ximen Guan, comparable in size to ordinary magic armors, or even larger.

"What happened?" Sha Chu asked Li Xiu.

The incident just now wasn't Li Xiu joking with her; this could be seen from the expression on Li Xiu's face as he looked at the magic armor.

"This set of magic armor indeed has some problems, but they're not major. Let's go over to the Celestial Gate first and take a look," Li Xiu said as he hoisted the Magic Armor Box onto his back and led Sha Chu towards the Celestial Gate.

Sha Chu didn't ask any more questions and followed Li Xiu slowly.

Passing by some Trial Gates, it could be seen that there were some Magic Armor Masters guarding them, which indicated that ordinary people weren't allowed near these Trial Gates.

More Trial Gates were guarded by Trial Takers, or sometimes by no one at all, suggesting that anyone could enter at will.

Approaching the Celestial Gate, from afar, they could see many Magic Armor Masters patrolling the area, and before getting close, they were stopped.

"Celestial Gate is a restricted area, no entry allowed." A patrolling Magic Armor Master noticed Li Xiu and Sha Chu, immediately stepping in to prevent them from approaching.

"I am a friend of Elder Dao, please pass the message for me," Li Xiu shouted to the Magic Armor Master.

"Elder Dao has entered the Celestial Gate for inspection and won't return for a short time. Come back in four days." The Magic Armor Master glanced at the Magic Armor Box on Li Xiu's back, his tone much milder.

Li Xiu didn't expect Elder Dao to be absent, so he had to leave the Celestial Gate first.

Since he couldn't meet Elder Dao, Li Xiu headed to the Trial Gate Sha Chu mentioned, hoping to try his luck and see if he could randomly get an entry ticket to acquire some resources from the Land of Trial.

The Trial Gate Sha Chu spoke of was called the "Beast Gate." It had no guards, suggesting it was a Trial Gate anyone could enter.

After arriving at the Beast Gate, Sha Chu took out over a dozen diamonds and embedded them to open the Beast Gate.

"You actually brought so many diamonds?" Li Xiu was a bit surprised. Although they were all less than one-carat fragments, they were still worth a significant amount.

"I'm not like you, coming here and acting as Commander. I had to prepare something, otherwise, how would I manage?" Sha Chu said as she walked in.

Li Xiu followed her in, and as the view cleared, they found themselves standing on a ten-meter diving platform above a swimming pool.

"Welcome to the Beast Trial Ground, A-level trial is about to begin, the trial rules are as follows..."

After reading the rules, Li Xiu realized this was a ten-meter platform diving competition.

The rules were simple: a diving video would play on the light screen, and the Trial Taker must imitate it.

The closer the imitation, the higher the completion, and the greater the chance to pass the trial.

Fortunately, this trial didn't require two people to compete; the Trial Taker only needed to achieve a passing score to clear the trial.

"The first round is relatively simple. When you jump, make sure you plunge in like an arrow without causing large splashes. The movements just need to be close enough; the first round isn't that difficult..." Sha Chu advised Li Xiu on what to pay attention to.

As the countdown ended, the trial began, and images appeared on the light screen, showing a human in a white bodysuit standing on the ten-meter platform, facing away from the pool. Opening their arms, they suddenly leaped, spinning countless times in mid-air before plunging into the water like a sharp arrow, causing only a small splash.

"A-level does have some difficulty, but as long as the movements aren't too far off, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Let me demonstrate first," Sha Chu said, moving to the position on the ten-meter platform. After posing, she took a deep breath, and then with strength from her legs, she leapt up.

She wore a red leather skirt that showcased her fair and long legs. Her body traced a beautiful arc in the air, spinning several times before finally plunging into the water.

Although her posture was quite standard, the splash was much larger than in the video.

The light screen showed a score of 8.1, well above the passing mark.

"Don't be nervous. For a Trial Taker, this should be no big deal." Sha Chu climbed out of the pool, standing by the poolside, saying to Li Xiu above.

"Indeed, there's no difficulty." Of course, Li Xiu wasn't nervous at all; to him, such a trial was a freebie.

A Trial Taker's strength and explosive power are far superior to those of ordinary athletes, allowing them to jump higher and stay in the air longer, better completing movements. As long as the movements were done well, and he didn't fall into the water on his back, there would be no significant issues.

Sha Chu watched Li Xiu from below, wanting to see how Li Xiu ended up entering the water.

Although the difficulty wasn't great, making the movements standard wasn't that simple either.

Once Li Xiu stood at the edge of the diving platform, he hesitated hardly at all, exerted force with his legs to jump up, then flipped in the air before finally entering the water.

The entire move was executed in one smooth motion, and hardly any splash rose as he entered the water. At the place where he entered the water, bubbles surged incessantly, yet none erupted onto the water's surface.

Sha Chu was slightly dazed; Li Xiu's diving move was just like it had been cut out from the video, matching the video's actions perfectly.

Even with the complex clothing Li Xiu was wearing, the splash was incredibly small, which was quite astonishing.
