These words, upon being spoken, made Bo Saixi’s eyes sparkle. A genuine smile of happiness for Tang Sui bloomed on her face. “Although opportunities always come with endless dangers, congratulations. You have received a reward that is even more worthwhile.”
“Thank you, Senior.” Tang Sui returned an equally happy smile.
【Do you want to see your current stat panel?】

【Soul Coins: * (Be careful, running out will lead to bankruptcy.)】
The familiar parentheses, but with the system’s truths revealed, Tang Sui felt the parentheses were even cuter now.
However…
Tang Sui’s gaze fell upon the annotation for the domain.
‘My domain has evolved? Sinful Twin Birth… Is it a skill similar to Brother’s Asura Domain’s evolved skill, Asura Charge?’
Hei Mian said calmly, 【You'll know when you try it in your free time.】
Still not getting an explanation, Tang Sui felt a bit helpless.
With the return of her memories, she now understood Hei Mian better, knowing the reason for its sudden playful demeanor was that it was still sulking.
Although she didn’t know why it was still angry, when the Fox Mask and the others weren’t?
Hmm… In this way, the Fox Mask and the others seemed easier to appease.
The other six masks, having heard Tang Sui’s inner thoughts: “……”
Chan Wan, which had not yet acquired a voice, opened its mouth in the dark spiritual space. With its naturally mournful expression, it looked even sadder.
The exchange with Hei Mian lasted only a few seconds. Tang Sui, capable of multitasking, bowed and exchanged pleasantries with Bo Saixi and the others. Then, she followed behind Dai Mubai, who had been propped up and was unconscious after consuming the “Wishful Thinking Mushroom Sausage” and preparing to return to Sea Horse City where they had initially stayed. The group departed grandly.
Bo Saixi, who had not left the Sea Illusion Holy Pillar, watched the direction Tang Sui and the others left with slowly calming eyes.
Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Astonishment Douluo, covered in blood but with their injuries no longer critical, stood to Bo Saixi’s left and right.
The former cautiously glanced at Bo Saixi’s expression and lowered his eyes.
Grand High Priest…
Alas…
After hastily arranging Tang San, everyone gradually left Tang San’s room and gathered in the Grand Banquet Hall.
Ma Hongjun, looking utterly exhausted, leaned back on a plush sofa chair, his back pressing against the backrest, his neck tilted back in a pose of complete relaxation.
“I’m so tired, I feel like I’ve lived a year in these past few days. It was too thrilling!”
Bai Chenxiang and the others also agreed with Ma Hongjun.
They had only spent about two days in their fifth trial, but waiting for five agonizing days at the Sea Illusion Holy Pillar while guarding Tang Sui felt no less stressful than challenging the Seven Sacred Pillar Guardian Douluo individually.
The mental exhaustion was even more draining.
Looking at her companions, who all had varying degrees of dark circles under their eyes, Tang Sui sighed, “Why don’t we all rest separately for today? I still need some time to digest the sudden surge of power I've gained. Brother should also be waking up around then. We can then properly discuss what happened to each of us these past few days, how about that?”
As the leader of Shrek, Dai Mubai looked at the bloodshot eyes of his companions and let out a soft sigh. “Alright. Then, when Xiao San wakes up, we'll sit here and have a good chat.”
Tang Sui nodded, and the others had no objections this time.
After all, their biggest concern, Tang Sui, was out of danger. They could discuss the rest at any time; resting was the priority now.
“Alright, let’s wait until Xiao San wakes up. Oh, right, before you rest, have another Super Recovery Great Sausage.” Oscar yawned, his bloodshot eyes opening, and he produced seven Great Sausages, distributing them to everyone.
After eating the sausages, everyone stood up and walked towards their rooms with weary steps.
Among them, Xiao Wu, after a brief period of recuperation in her room using the Super Recovery Great Sausage, and worried about Tang San being alone, went to Tang San’s room to watch over him.
Tang Sui, having just acquired such immense power, also returned to her room to begin meditating and recuperating.
As for Zhu Zhuqing, who had completed all the black-level fifth trials, she rose with the dawn the next day to seek out Bo Saixi to claim the reward for yesterday’s postponed assessment.
Coincidentally, her Soul Power level had also unexpectedly broken through to level 80 after receiving Sea Goddess Douluo’s sonic attack, reaching the standard to directly obtain her eighth Soul Ring.
She also wanted to become stronger as quickly as possible.
