God of Fishing Chapter 1003 - A Strange Girl

Chapter 1003: A Strange Girl

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the teleportation maze of the Thug Academy, a large number of people were trying day and night. At first, there were only about 1,000 people, but gradually, there were more than 5,000 people.
And now, many parents were gathered with their children.
Many of them weren’t even from the Pure Sun Island, causing the number of youths tested in the maze to instantly reach nearly 10,000.
There were also some youths who were completely stuck at one spot. The test was extremely difficult. In order to prove their excellence, they took the initiative to come here and participate in the test.
However, less than ten people could reach the final hundred kilometers.
At this moment…
Xing Yue had already been in the spirit gatherer maze for three days and three nights. In the past three days, he had experimented countless times, and every time he felt that he was close to success, he would fail and trigger a spirit energy explosion.
His target was the Heavenly Sword Sect.
He believed that he was qualified. Compared to the abilities of a soul warrior, he was more confident in his abilities as a spirit gatherer.
However, this time, he failed to draw a single spirit gathering array despite trying for three full days. This left him extremely frustrated.
He was determined to put aside the seven major sects: he had to go to the Thug Academy.
BAM!
He failed again, and the spirit energy explosion sent him flying.
Xing Yue hurriedly cast a healing spell on himself as though the spiritual energy explosion was a trivial matter.
That’s not right. This isn’t a normal spirit gathering array at all. It must be a secret array. However, this array is extremely strange. It’s completely irregular. To successfully replicate it, one has to grasp this irregular composition method.
Xing Yue was thinking that it was clearly impossible to successfully draw this picture using traditional spirit gathering techniques. To succeed, one had to succeed in spirit gathering. To succeed in spirit gathering, one had to succeed in drawing, and to succeed in drawing, one needed to succeed in spirit gathering…
It seemed to be a triangular paradox.
Suddenly, an idea came to Xing Yue as his eyes lit up. The reason I failed was because I used too much spirit energy, causing the spirit energy to dissipate and resulting in a spirit energy explosion. If I were to draw with very little spirit energy and stack the energy one by one, wouldn’t that work?
Xing Yue frowned. It seems to be a little obvious, but as long as it succeeds, who cares?
A tiny amount of spiritual energy flowed from Xing Yue’s fingertip. Just in a moment, he finished drawing the array without producing a spiritual energy explosion, and this was the first time he tried.
Xing Yue was overjoyed. This method worked.
…
On the other side, at the armorist checkpoint.
Gu Qi held an armor box. Swords and daggers shot out from the box. On the shield, continuous tinkling sounds echoed.
As an armorist, she already knew the way to break through the shield when she saw it. As long as she broke through a spot, she could shatter the entire shield wall.
Gu Qi gritted her teeth. She had heard that one of the children chosen from the Su family only had a level-three spiritual heritage and the other was a b*stard. Just based on this alone, she should be able to enter the Thug Academy.
She only had a level-four spiritual heritage. Although she wasn’t a b*stard, her parents had both died in the Unknown Place. Her spiritual heritage was too poor. The seven sects’ minimum requirement was a level-five spiritual heritage, so the appearance of the Thug Academy gave her a chance.
“Hoop!”
She had lost count of the number of attempts she had made. The reason wasn’t that she wasn’t fast enough, but that she didn’t have enough spiritual energy. After striking 60 times in a row, her spiritual energy was exhausted. She had to immediately recover her spiritual energy before continuing.
This won’t do! I wonder if anyone has passed this test? I can’t waste any more time.
Eh, the explosions next door stopped? Did that person passed the test?
Gu Qi’s heart trembled. The explosion not far from next door had lasted for two days. The other party was clearly not someone who would give up easily.
No, there’s not enough spiritual energy. I’ll burn my life force.
…
Outside the maze, a fishing boat flew over.
On the fishing boat was an old man with a girl.
The girl was babbling, “Grandpa Mo, is this Thug Academy that powerful? Why did it decline back then? Were they the former Eighth Academy?”
The old man smiled and said, “Miss, for a long time in history, the Thug Academy was the leader of the eight sects. In the beginning, they even had an unparalleled strong master who suppressed the Thousand Star City alone. This school is definitely not inferior to the seven sects.”
The girl was curious. “Aren’t we going to the Jade Fairy Palace? Teacher Jia said that I’m extremely talented.”
The old man smiled faintly. “If you can enter the Thug Academy, it’s fine if you don’t go to the Jade Fairy Palace. The Jade Fairy Palace is full of elites. Although they are very strong individually, they are much weaker when it comes to teaming up. It’s not only the Jade Fairy Palace, but the Heavenly Sword Sect is the same. However, the Thug Academy isn’t. They are consciously recruiting a perfect team and nurturing them from a young age, so their final achievements will be different.”
The girl sighed. “I wonder if there are any good-looking boys in the Thug Academy.”
The old man’s mouth curled up. “Yes, I heard that there’s a person named Zhang Xuanyu who has extraordinary looks. I’ve already asked around. This child created his own technique and has extraordinary talent, but he might be a little older than you. He should be twenty years old today. However, don’t worry, Miss. I heard that this person’s very handsome. He’s very suitable for you.”
The girl curled her lips. “He’s only eight years older. It’s fine. My father is more than 300 years older than my mother.”
The old man nodded. “That’s true. Cultivators have long lives. A few hundred years is nothing. Besides, this is a tradition of our Yi Family. I heard that dual cultivation is very popular among the students at the Thug Academy. Miss, you can give it a try.”
The girl immediately clapped her hands and nodded. “Yes, yes! By the way, will Zhang Xuanyu marry into our family?”
The elder’s expression changed slightly. “That shouldn’t be possible. It would already be great if you could win such a genius’ heart. Don’t even think about making him marry into our family… Here we are.”
Outside the maze, someone shook his head. “Someone else is here. Up to now, no one has passed the test. I don’t think this maze can be broken through.”
Someone nodded. “I think so too. I don’t think the Thug Academy is recruiting at all.”
Someone shook his head. “If they aren’t recruiting, why would they make such a big fuss? All they want are elites. If one can pass easily, how can it be called an assessment?”
The elder led the girl to the sign-up outside the maze. The girl read: “There are killing arrays hidden inside. Don’t barge in.”
The girl chuckled. “It looks very scary.”
The elder said, “Miss, don’t underestimate it. Although you are talented, you can’t trigger the killing arrays.”
The girl waved her hand and said, “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. I’m going to find handsome brothers. Grandpa Mo, do you want to wait outside?”
The old man smiled. “Of course. When Miss enters the Thug Academy, I have to hurry home and let Master and Madam escape.”
The girl was speechless. “Is it that scary?”
The old man said leisurely, “The Thug Academy is strong, but they have too many enemies. Our Yi Family can’t fully support the Thug Academy. Master happened to say that he wants to live in town for a period of time. This way, we can avoid the danger of the Thug Academy.”
The girl said indifferently, “It’s alright! I know them. They just want to leave me and sneak out to have some alone time. Tsk, if they want to go, so be it.”
With that said, the girl took a step into the maze. As for the old man, he stood outside the maze with a smile. He held something unknown in his hand and said to it, “Master, Madam, Miss has been tricked into entering. You can pack your things now.”
After Yi Xiyan entered the maze, she began mumbling, “All you know is to fool me. You fool me every day. There are only three people left in the Yi Family, and you want to fool me into leaving? All you want is to give me a younger brother… Hmph, isn’t a girl nice? Girls are like cotton-padded jackets. Daddy, I’m not going to be your cotton-padded jacket. I want to find my handsome brother and be his cotton-padded jacket… Eh! ‘Repent and Be Saved’. What’s that?”
Outside, just as the old man finished speaking, he saw Yi Xiyan return. His smile froze as he said in surprise, “Miss, where did you come from?”
Yi Xiyan’s face flushed red. “I… I just came out to take a look if you had returned yet.”
The old man smiled. “No. If Miss doesn’t enter the Thug Academy, how can I return?”
Yi Xiyan raised her head and grunted before walking back into the maze.
A hundred seconds later.
Swish!
The elder said, “Miss, why are you out again?”
“I forgot to tell you. What about my dowry?”
The elder heaved a sigh of relief. “The entire Yi Family is Miss’s dowry.”
Yi Xiyan walked in again.
After about twenty-five minutes.
Swish!
The elder said leisurely, “Miss, don’t tell me you can’t pass the maze.”
Yi Xinyan immediately rolled her eyes. “How is that possible? I just want to say that there are only four of us, including you. What can we possible have for a dowry?”
The old man smiled and said, “Don’t worry! As long as you become a student of the Thug Academy, the dowry might shock you. By the way, Miss, don’t come out again!”
Disgusted, she walked into the maze again.
This time, she was already familiar with the maze’s routine. She didn’t touch any of the teleportation arrays that looked strange. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to explain herself if she was sent out again…
Two hours passed…
When Yi Xiyan saw a killing array filled with sword lights, she couldn’t help but smile. “It’s very simple! Gale…”
Ten hours later…
Yi Xiyan saw a swath of blue flowers and vines. There were colorful worms sprawled on the ground.
“Ouch! Mommy… Worms…”
