There is no guarantee for the lottery? So what?

“Time: 37 seconds.”

After reaching the finish line, Qi Jing used "Snow Treading Without a Trace" to run around the audience stands a few times, quickly drying the water off his body.

He was already dressed when he returned to the finish line.

“Impressive, young man! That speed is comparable to a Level 3 ‘Speed Burst’ ability user.”

A woman made of water slowly emerged from the pool.

She was literally made of water, just like the water elemental creatures from before.

She walked up the steps to the shore and slowly solidified into a physical form.

She wore a light blue dress, with long black hair falling naturally down her back, and her lazy eyes looked at Qi Jing as if she could fall asleep at any moment.

Qi Jing noticed the dress she was wearing was the “Dress That Can Turn Into Water” he had drawn. He didn't expect it to be sold here.

This woman, who looked like a big shot, must be the “lifeguard” and “level creator” here.

“Young man, is there something wrong with this dress?”

Qi Jing respectfully replied, “This dress was created by my ability.”

“Created? It seems your ability is quite extraordinary.”

The seemingly young and beautiful woman said, “My name is Lan Lan, and I am the curator here. Could you sell me a few more dresses like this?

Before, every time I transformed back into human form, I had to put on clothes in the water before coming up. Thanks to your dress, I can come out directly.

However, one dress is a bit monotonous for a woman.

How about it, young man? Sell me a few more?”

Qi Jing said, “My ability summons things randomly, and I don’t have a second one yet.”

Lan Lan felt a little disappointed when she heard that there wasn't a second one: “That's a pity. If you summon such clothes again in the future, be sure to sell them to me.”

Although Qi Jing didn't know how long it would take to draw such clothes next time, he agreed first.

“Definitely. Curator Lan, I’ll go in and register first.”

“Go ahead.”

Qi Jing walked into the registration room.

“You're too fast!” Fang Jun exclaimed as soon as he entered the door, “That speed is enough to be in the top five!”

Si Kong Yaoyao said, “Junior, I have a deal for you. Are you interested?”

Qi Jing looked at Si Kong Yaoyao and asked curiously, “What kind of deal?”

“My ability is ‘Blessing,’ which can slightly increase someone's luck or enhance their physical strength for a year.”

Si Kong Yaoyao looked at Tan Zuoyin and continued, “I'll give you both a blessing in exchange for you promising me one thing.”

Enhance luck? There's such an ability? This is a perfect match for my “lottery draw.”

Qi Jing couldn't wait to agree. “Blessing” was too tempting.

But he still had to be a little reserved and asked,

“What is it?”

Si Kong Yaoyao said, “We'll talk about it later. Just consider it a promise. Of course, I won't ask you to do anything illegal or unethical.”

“Okay, I agree.”

Qi Jing answered decisively.

“I also promise you one condition. Give me a blessing, please~” Fang Jun said, “I've been begging you for half a year. Just give me one, just one.”

“No, just no, nya nya nya~”

Si Kong Yaoyao turned to Qi Jing and asked, “Do you want luck or physical strength?"

Qi Jing answered without hesitation, “Luck.”

Si Kong Yaoyao closed her eyes, muttered something, and then said, “Okay, your luck will be slightly increased for the next year. You can come to me for a free renewal in a year.”

Si Kong Yaoyao asked Tan Zuoyin, “Do you want physical strength or luck? I recommend physical strength. The stronger your physical strength, the greater the chance of passing the trial.”

Tan Zuoyin asked, “Doesn't the sign at the entrance say that you can't interfere with people in the trial?”

“As long as the external force lasts for more than six months, it's considered a permanent ability and doesn't count as interference.”

Si Kong Yaoyao said proudly,

“My ability lasts for a whole year, so it doesn't violate the rules.”

“She's sold a lot of ‘promises’ with this ability.” Fang Jun interjected.

“No one will think you're mute if you don't speak!”

Si Kong Yaoyao glared at Fang Jun, and Fang Jun glared back.

“I choose luck.”

Tan Zuoyin felt that her luck would improve, and being with Qi Jing could increase the probability of Qi Jing drawing good things.

Si Kong Yaoyao said, “Okay, it seems you're also confident in passing this trial.”

She also completed the blessing for Tan Zuoyin.

“I'll register you and prepare for the trial.”

Si Kong Yaoyao finished speaking and walked to the glass window.

Qi Jing explained the information about the trial to Tan Zuoyin based on his memory:

“The first 200 meters are a normal swimming pool, 10 meters deep, with a water cube 100 meters high and about 200 meters long. Then there's the water animal zone, which is also about 200 meters.

The main thing is that the entire floor and the walls of the pool cannot be touched. The Xingtian Armor is very light, but it's still heavier than water, so be careful.”

Tan Zuoyin said, “It's okay. Didn't you say it's a space combat suit? A mere underwater trial is a piece of cake.”

“Good luck!”

“I'm going.”

Before long, a red armored person appeared in the live broadcast at the starting point.

“Wow, armor? How did you guys get this?” Fang Jun's jaw almost dropped.

Qi Jing replied, “My ability created it.”

“What's your ability? It's so amazing. It can teleport, walk on water, and create armor.” Fang Jun was very curious about Qi Jing's ability.

“It's just an ordinary lottery draw.”

Qi Jing didn't think it was necessary to hide his ability. After he checked the information of the globally known Level 5 ability users, he felt that the “lottery draw” ability was still too normal compared to them.

“Lottery draw? Is that like random summoning? With that kind of ability, you should be from the special branch.”

“Yes.”

They looked at the screen.

Tan Zuoyin entered the water. She swam forward in the water and started to use the reaction force of sound waves to accelerate.

This acceleration method cannot be used on land, but it's perfect in the water.

When she rushed to the water column, her speed was already very fast.

With almost no pause, Tan Zuoyin charged straight into the water column, as fast as an arrow leaving the bow, and burst out from the other side of the water column in a few seconds.

After coming out, her momentum didn't decrease, and she rushed straight towards the finish line.

Those water animals couldn't stop her at all, and the water arrows couldn't break through the armor's defense.

“Trial completed.”

“Time: 40 seconds.”

Fang Jun felt like he was trash when he heard the voice prompt.

These two people passed the trial as soon as school started, and both within a minute.

The difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

Si Kong Yaoyao walked out and said to Tan Zuoyin, who had just entered the door, “The time you used to accelerate in the first half was a bit long, otherwise you would have been faster than your boyfriend.”

Tan Zuoyin said, “I'm not very familiar with this way of using my ability yet.”

She could only blow leaves with sound waves on land, and it was her first time using them in the sea.

Qi Jing suddenly felt a little stupid when he thought that Tan Zuoyin seemed to have rushed all the way through:

“Why didn't I think of rushing straight through? With my body, that water column couldn't stop me at all!

Sure enough, I still don't have a clear understanding of how strong my body is.”

Tan Zuoyin said, “Just remember it for next time.”

Si Kong Yaoyao said, “There won't be a next time. After all, this trial is just to assess whether you have the ability to escape in the sea, not to let you break records.”

Qi Jing asked, “Sea escape? Is the environment behind the C-Dimensional Gate's ‘Deep Sea Islands’ very harsh?”

Si Kong Yaoyao replied, “Of course. Each other-dimensional gate corresponds to a different terrain. The C-Dimensional Gate is at least opened on an island and not in the sea.

But it's subject to wave impacts from time to time, which is why it took us 10 years to complete the construction of our base.”

Fang Jun said, “Come on, I'll take you to see it.”
