Chapter 3688  Mild Success

*Bzzz!~*

Girias's body burst out with dark lightning, encasing his body.

However, despite his attack, Isabella refused to leave. She stood on his face with one leg and didn't seem to be harmed by his Dark Moon Lightning Serpent's lightning.

"Don't worry. I won't kill you. Tell me, how much blood essence you lost?"

Isabella asked with derision etched on her face.

Abruptly, she raised her hand and caught a pigeon-egg-sized sphere that came from the distance.

*Poof!~*

It silently exploded into a gas of blue cloud, causing Isabella's brows to narrow. Her soul sea was greatly rocked at this moment. Her soul was injured by a sapphire sphere.

It was thrown by Harmon but looking at Isabella remain unfazed and still step on Girias, Harmon's scalp turned numb.

He instantly turned around and escaped.

Isabella didn't give chase. Instead, Frostrose and Flamerose appeared around her, positioning themselves to guard her. She couldn't help but nod at them.

"You- fucking bitch. I'll kill you when we're kicked out of this pagoda!"

Girias placed his hands on the grassy ground and tried to stand up, but it was useless. He felt like a mountain was above him, weighing so heavily that he couldn't move his body. The pressure of her soul force was also great, leaving him devastated in both body and soul as he felt like a monster had subdued him.

"I'd like to see you try. You have a high chance of killing me, but it would be a pity since Zahara and Yeyin are there to protect me."

Isabella giggled.

Her gaze, full of derision, turned calm as she felt all her frustrations leaving her body. She finally had a semblance of her revenge. After all, ever since coming here, she had been forced to restrain herself due to not having enough power to defeat these idiots since her cultivation base had been sealed.

But here, where all was fair, no one could defeat her.

They were running around left and right at the first sight of her, full of fear. Yet, when they were caught, they still had the audacity to curse back.

Isabella felt like crushing Girias's head with her foot, but she knew she would be out of the trial if she did that due to a complete loss of energy, so she refrained. However, she didn't take her foot back.

She pressed her foot on him more, her embroidered shoes made from immortal martial energy, causing his skull to crack like they were fissures.

"Not going to answer my question?"

"Ten! Ten percent of my blood essence has dispersed!"

Girias growled, "If you aren't going to kill me, then let me go!"

He stopped struggling and reluctantly answered. However, his screams were like miserable scowls. It seems that he really thought of himself as someone superior to the other Candidates, causing Isabella to smirk.

But inwardly, she thought, 'Only ten percent? That leaves ten chances for trying to subdue a head-sized ruby sphere, but chances are people would faint on the sixth or seventh try…'

She derived, knowing that people cannot withstand such a loss of blood essence.

Although this wasn't their true body, it still genuinely felt like one and even hosted all three of their cultivation systems without a change. Nonetheless, she didn't have to worry about such things as she could get as many head-sized spheres as she wanted.

She lifted her feet and kicked Girias's rib, causing him to be sent flying. He spurted a trail of blood from his mouth all the way until he crashed two kilometers away and rolled around like a ragdoll.

"Begone from my sight."

Isabella coldly uttered before she turned around and shared the subduing method with Frostrose and Flamerose. She didn't have time to torture someone, so she decisively kicked Girias away and got on to completing the trial.

Soon, the twin phoenixes tried their hands on it.

*BOOOOM!~*

While Flamerose managed to succeed using her full force, Frostrose failed. She lost her limbs, but she quickly regenerated them. After all, these spheres left no remnant energy in their bodies, allowing one to heal quickly.

Frostrose was embarrassed as Flamerose guarded her, but her expression remained indifferent as she lay down and healed.

At this moment, Isabella's fist had subdued another head-sized ruby sphere.

She made it fly around with her soul force while she targeted a fist-sized ruby sphere. Although not as fast as the pigeon-egg-sized spheres, they were quite fast for their size. It didn't make it difficult to catch them, but it neared other ruby spheres, making it dangerous to try subduing one.

Isabella waited a few seconds as she followed the fist-sized ruby sphere she locked eyes on.

The little spheres kept dancing around her randomly, some almost hitting her, but she dodged them successfully each time without a problem. Her figure clad in a purplish-golden robe was enamoring as she weaved through hundreds of them.

"Got you~"

Isabella's pupils dilated as the fist-sized ruby sphere left the five-meter diameter of the other spheres. She launched her right fist fueled with her earth dragon might. However, it wasn't overbearing or soft.

*Bang!~*

Her frail-looking fist connected, erupting with a powerful bang.

*Booom!~*

However, her entire right arm exploded along with it, causing her expression to twitch in pain. She instantly saw that she had lost five percent of her blood essence, and combined with the previous pigeon-egg-sized ruby spheres, she lost a total of eleven percent of blood essence.

She also used a percent of her blood essence to heal from all those injuries, so she lost a total of twelve percent, which she shrugged as it was still fine.

Isabella had the confidence to lose the most amount of blood essence yet still keep standing as her Emperor-Tier Earth Dragon Blood blessed her with extreme vitality.

Nonetheless, she saw that even with the crimson cloud exploding, it didn't detonate the head-sized sphere she possessed. She was covered in the crimson cloud, thinking otherwise, but since nothing happened, she didn't bother with the loss anymore, so she went to hunt down another fist-sized ruby sphere.

She raised her left hand, readying her earthen energy.

Spotting a fist-sized ruby sphere in the distance, she pounced at it.

Fortunately, there were no ruby spheres near it, allowing her to attack.

*Bang!~*

Her fist connected. This time, she lowered the power of her fist slightly and hoped for the best. The fist-sized ruby sphere trembled at her might, but instead of exploding, it canceled out her fist and dropped to the ground.

"Success…"

Isabella giggled ever so lightly as she bent down to pick up the fist-sized ruby sphere.

"Now, only the smallest one is left…"

She pursed her lips. Just thinking about how to calm the overbearing nature of her earth dragon might was giving her a headache, so she guessed she might have to abandon it and divert it to last after taking care of the other two spheres: the soul sphere and the essence sphere.

*Clank!~*

But at this moment, a string of words appeared in the sky with a strange sound.

[Harmon: Collected all three soul spheres]

This announcement made Isabella narrow her eyes.

'Oh... skilled in soul force, are you?'
