The Trial of the Epic was pretty much easy for Tang Shaoyang. The Epic Rank Monster, the Warbear was killed in one hit, and the remaining monsters were nothing. The same for the spirit, even though the number of sacrifices increased by many. Tang Shaoyang could only summon Grade S+ Spirit.

[You have cleared the fifteenth wave of the Trial of the Epic!]

Tang Shaoyang was still in his transformation skill. He flew to the sky and cast [Epic Summoning].

[You have summoned Grade S+ Spirit, Bagin the Troll Warlord!]

"What the…" Tang Shaoyang almost cursed out as this was the third Troll Warlord he summoned. He also summoned the Troll  Warlord in the thirteenth and fourteenth waves, Rogin and Togin. For some reason, their names ended with the same word -in, "Are they brother?"

—We are not!

—We are not!

Two roars rang in his head. That was Rogin and Togin's voices. Both replied at the same time and in the same tone.

"So you are brothers," Tang Shaoyang concluded with a nod, "Then you guys are triplets? Answer me, Togin!" He raised his tone, and the Troll Warlord called Togin relented.

—No, we are not triplet but there are seven of us, Master.

"What? Your mother must be very strong to bear seven trolls…" That was a surprise for sure, 'Does that mean I will be summoning the other four Troll Warlords in the next four waves?'

"You, dunce! Fight me!" Bagin rushed toward Tang Shaoyang with his battle but he had fought two Troll Warlords before. He was familiar with the way the Troll Warlord fought. They reinforce their weapon and body with mana to reinforce their attack. Physical Strength was what Tang Shaoyang excelled in. He easily beat the third Troll Warlord.

[You have established a contract with Grade S+ Spirit, Bagin the Troll Warlord!]

Tang Shaoyang immediately returned to the stone pillar after he defeated Bagin and activated the next wave.

[The Trial of the Epic will continue to the sixteenth wave!]

[The sixteenth wave will spawn in five minutes!]

——————————

[Sixteenth Wave]

Composition: 500,000 Stage 4 Monsters, and 280,000 Stage 5 Monsters, 120,000 Stage 6 Monsters, 60,000 Stage 7 Monsters, 28,000 Stage 8 Monsters, 8,000 Stage 9 Monsters, 130 Epic Rank Monsters, 1 Ancient Rank Monster

Countdown: 00:04:59

——————————

"Ancient Rank Monster, this would be a challenge for sure," Tang Shaoyang was excited when he found there was an Ancient Rank Monster within the sixteenth wave. But then he made a downcast expression as he remembered something. The gator tribe he fought against before, they were Ancient Rank Beastmen too but…

"They are weak. Now my second class has advanced, and my bloodline is fully unsealed. Even Ancient Rank Monster should be easy for the current me…"

When the sixteenth wave spawned, Tang Shaoyang immediately went after the direction. He soon found the wave, and he also found the Ancient Rank Monster. The Ancient Rank Monster was standing between the Epic Rank Monster, the same Warbear. However, the Ancient Rank Monster was not a Warbear, at least, it was not a bear for sure.

The monster had the head of a snake and bat wings. It had four hands that each of them was holding a spear. The snake-head also wore armor, a rare sight for sure.

Tang Shaoyang took out his battle-ax and dived into the wave. He rushed straight toward the snake-head and slammed his battle-ax on the Ancient Rank Monster.

Dang!

The snake-head crossed the four spears and blocked the attack. Of course, Tang Shaoyang was not using a skill or even using Slayer Energy in his attack. He did not intend to kill the snake-head. He wanted to know what kind of creature this snake-head was.

"Serpentos? And it has two classes?" Tang Shaoyang got the information he wanted but a frown formed on his forehead, "Poison, huh? This is quite troublesome. I should finish this thing quickly before it could use the poison,"

If it was a physical battle, Tang Shaoyang was confident with his body and strength. If it was a poison then he was not going to play around with a poison. The right poison could even kill a Dragon. He did not want to die because of this poison.

Tang Shaoyang channeled his Slayer Energy on his battle-ax before he used his movement skill, [Flash Step]. His figure disappeared and appeared again behind the Serpentos. He slammed the battle-ax downward at the Serpentos' snakehead.

Boom!

From the impact of his attack, Tang Shaoyang could tell that his battle-ax failed to split the head open. That meant the Serpentos was still alive after that strike. He then activated another skill, [Slayer Blade].

Dozens of crescent-shaped blades formed with Slayer Energy. Tang Shaoyang did want to give the Serpentos to use the poison. He controlled [Slayer Blade] and rained down the Serpentos with the Slayer Blade.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

[You have leveled up!]

[You gained 32 Attribute Points!]

[You have reached level 1016!]

Tang Shaoyang heard the notification of leveling up, meaning he had killed the Serpentos before it could use the poison. He was relieved that he could kill the Serpentos quickly, "I need a solid plan for the next wave. The trial must be sending the same Serpentos for the Ancient Rank Monster. But I am actually surprised that the monster can hold two classes as well,"

Tang Shaoyang shook his head and focused his strength on clearing the wave. It took him almost twenty minutes to finish the sixteenth wave. That was a lot of time compared to his previous record.

"I can't be dissatisfied with what I have done. I am sure that I am one of the best facing the Trial of the Epic," After saying that, Tang Shaoyang flew to the sky and cast [Epic Summoning].

"Please no more Troll Warlord!" He begged quietly.

[You have summoned Grade S+ Spirit, Mugin the Troll Warlord!]
