Open your eyes!

Jiang Ye found himself finally returning to that dim Cloud Road.

Unknowingly, he had walked hundreds of meters.

"Was it all an illusion?"

Jiang Ye's eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

Everything just now was too real, even not losing to the realism of the Martial Arts Celestial Ladder.

The most crucial part was that it could even temporarily alter his memory.

This was already quite similar to the First Layer of the Martial Arts Celestial Ladder.

Fortunately, Jiang Ye's Martial Arts Heart was steadfast enough.

He walked out with supreme composure.

"These starlights?" Jiang Ye suddenly looked around.

He noticed that the number of starlights around the Cloud Road seemed to have increased.

And the Cloud Road beneath his feet seemed a bit wider than before.

"Roar~!"

At this moment, Jiang Ye's expression suddenly paused.

A more than ten-meter-high pitch-black shadow suddenly appeared on the Cloud Road ahead.

A terrifying roar echoed.

"Shadow Race? Youth form?!" Jiang Ye's face suddenly tensed.

A Shadow Race member over ten meters falls into the category of a youth form.

Usually, only Second Break or even Third Break Star Sky Martial Arts can handle it!

"How can this be?" Jiang Ye was shocked in his heart.

A youth form of the Shadow Race appearing on the Star Sea Divine Path? It was far beyond what he could handle.

Could this also be a test?

"Roar!"

Ahead, the massive shadow roared up to the sky, deafeningly.

The voice of the Shadow Race itself could shake one's resolve.

And at the youth form, it becomes all the more terrifying.

For a moment, even Jiang Ye felt his head splitting with pain, his spirit destabilized.

Even more so...a thought of retreat sprouted in his heart.

"A youth form Shadow Race member stands in the way, I simply can't pass...no, wait!"

Jiang Ye's expression suddenly shifted: "This is merely a First Break trial, why would such a difficult opponent be arranged?"

He looked ahead, a thoughtful glint in his eyes.

"Swish!"

The next moment, Jiang Ye's figure turned into a shadow, rushing forward.

"Roar!" The youth form of the Shadow Race let out terrifying roars.

Such a sound seemed capable of stirring the fear engraved in human genes.

It caused extreme trembling.

If one did not have a strong resolve, just hearing this sound would cause legs to go weak, paralyzing one's action.

However, Jiang Ye ignored it, his figure like a bolt of lightning, rushed straight ahead.

"Roar!"

The youth form of the Shadow Race roared, opening its blood-red mouth, to devour Jiang Ye.

How fast was the youth form? Comparable to a Second Break powerhouse, far beyond Jiang Ye.

In that instant, Jiang Ye felt his scalp tingle, even feeling the threat of death.

But he did not hesitate a single bit.

Steeled himself onwards.

With unwavering conviction!

"Buzz!"

Just at the moment the Shadow Race was about to consume Jiang Ye, everything suddenly vanished.

Jiang Ye sprinted forward a bit more, then abruptly stopped.

Turned back to look, nothing was there.

"I guessed right." Jiang Ye's face showed a slight smile: "It was all an illusion."

He had suspected earlier that this strength certification would not arrange such excessive content.

Just now, it was likely testing his courage.

Of course, it seemed simple to say.

But if one were truly in that situation, facing an enemy far superior to oneself, even with a strong Martial Arts Will, one would feel hesitation and fear.

Even with Jiang Ye's strong Martial Arts Will, a thought of retreat had surfaced.

Just as Jiang Ye was reflecting.

[Certifier Jiang Ye, you have passed the Martial Arts Will certification.]

[Please continue forward]

Two lines of text appeared, written in Blue Star language.

"Keep moving forward." Jiang Ye took a step forward.

The Cloud Road beneath his feet unknowingly became much broader, and the surrounding starlights became a bit brighter.

"Does this road symbolize Star Sky Martial Arts?"

Jiang Ye looked at this scene, pondering: "From the initial darkness and confusion, progressing to a stage where light appears."

"Will there be a moment later when it becomes like a sea of stars, with radiance everywhere?"

His heart suddenly looked forward to the moment when this road becomes dazzling with light.

...

While Jiang Ye continued forward.

In an octagonal building's top-floor conference hall, many people were taken aback.

Everyone was astonished, looking at the large screen ahead.

The large screen displayed the status of certifiers 13, 14, and 15.

[Certifier 15, Jiang Ye, has passed the Martial Arts Will certification!]

A piece of latest news appeared at the top of the screen.

"Jiang Ye? Passed the first certification already?"

"It's not even been three minutes, has it?"

"How could it be so fast?" The staff from the Star Sea Conglomerate were quite shocked.

The reputation of the Star Sea Divine Path's certification, why was it undisputed?

Precisely because of its high difficulty!

Take this Martial Arts Will certification for example, the illusions inside were incredibly realistic.

Almost flawless.

In addition, such an illusion could temporarily alter memory, which was essentially an unsolvable existence.

Of course, a genius's Martial Arts Will is often very robust.

Yet most geniuses need ten, even tens of minutes to potentially pass.

"Jiang Ye's Martial Arts Will is that strong?" Director Liu's eyes also flashed with shock.

Beside him, a short-haired female white-collar analyzed: "Martial Arts Will certification divides into three parts, the first is confronting one's desires, the second is facing fears, and the third tests courage."

"However, illusions need time to unfold."

"With Jiang Ye being this fast, it's likely that before the illusion finished unfolding, he had already seen through it!"

"This little guy's Martial Arts Will might already rival Second Break, no, rival Third Break strong individuals!" The female white-collar drew a sharp breath.

"Third Break? Not quite."

Director Liu shook his head: "However, his Martial Arts Will is indeed significantly ahead among this group of people."

He glanced at the large screen.

Su Tong'Er and Yun Qing'Er were still struggling at the 'desire gate'.

"He's a talent worth nurturing." Director Liu's gaze flickered: "Let's continue observing, the kid should now be entering the next stage."

Starting from the second certification.

Combat proficiency would now be tested.

"Martial Arts Will alone isn't enough to pass this stage." Director Liu stared at the large screen.

He was now growing curious.

This student from An City, with lower talent, what kind of performance could he deliver?

...

On the Star Sea Divine Path.

Jiang Ye halted again.

Ahead, several strange figures appeared.

They weren't like the peculiar Shadow Race.

Instead...they were human-like creatures but with organs resembling ram horns and ears.

All female.

These few female humanoid creatures looked quite attractive, though unable to compare with the likes of Chen Zilu and Zhao Qingli, they could still be called enchanting.

"Monster Girls?" Jiang Ye was quite bewildered.

Could he still be inside an illusion?

At this moment, a line of text suddenly appeared ahead of him.

[Clear without injury]

Simple, just four words, very brief.

But Jiang Ye's heart trembled.

Without injury! Clear!

He must not suffer a scratch and must slay all those Monster Girls to clear this stage!

"Finally arrived at the real combat stage." Jiang Ye took a deep breath.

Far from tense.

On the contrary...as he looked at those Monster Girls, he felt a stirring within.

"Xina!"

At this moment, the ram-horned, ram-eared humanoid Monster Girls ahead let out a sharp scream.

The next instant, they charged towards Jiang Ye.

Battle...began!
