At this moment, it was not only Tang Nian who looked shocked, but also Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong behind him.

Zhu Zhuqing today is completely different from when she first arrived at Shrek Academy.

All the misunderstandings that once stood between Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai have long since disappeared. Their hearts are closely connected and they understand each other very well.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing has already admitted from the bottom of her heart that she is Dai Mubai's fiancée.

She walked forward hurriedly, reached out from behind Dai Mubai and held his hand tightly, her face full of worry.

After Dai Mubai noticed Zhu Zhuqing's actions, he slowly turned around and gave her a gentle look full of comfort.

However, at this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes suddenly turned red and tears welled up in them, but she quickly lowered her head, fearing that people around her would see her so fragile.

Unknowingly, Dai Mubai has taken root deeply in Zhu Zhuqing's heart and occupies the most important position.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't imagine what it would be like to lose Dai Mubai. That would undoubtedly be a doomsday disaster for her.

Tang Nian, who was standing aside, saw this scene and couldn't help but feel an indescribable sour feeling in her heart. The feeling made her feel very uncomfortable.

Admittedly, she really needed everyone's help, but that didn't mean she was willing to watch Dai Mubai fall into any danger because of her.

Then, a look of determination emerged on Tang Nian's delicate face. Her eyes were as sharp as torches, staring closely at Haier in front of her, as if she wanted to convey her unshakable belief with her eyes.

She straightened her back, clenched her hands into fists unconsciously, and spoke in an unusually calm and solemn tone, "I don't want them to accompany me to take this first test. I plan to face the challenge alone. As for the next test of the Eight Holy Pillars, there is no need to continue. Please send them all out of here safely."

Hearing this, Haier couldn't help but frown slightly. His originally calm face now revealed a trace of solemnity and confusion.

He stared at the seemingly weak but extremely stubborn woman in front of him, and asked in a low and serious voice, "Inheritor, are you really sure you want to do this? I must be honest with you. Although the danger of failing to complete the test is indeed great, as long as he passes it successfully, he will gain unprecedented power and may even become as powerful as the guardians of our Eight Holy Pillars."

Tang Nian knew how powerful the guardians of the Eight Sacred Pillars were. They were all Titled Douluo-level warriors. Although this was indeed very tempting, Tang Nian believed that with time, even without the test of God Yama, Dai Mubai himself would be able to reach this level, and he would not have to face this kind of life-and-death test at all.

However, in the face of Haier's earnest persuasion, Tang Nian shook his head without hesitation.

Her long, bright blue hair swayed gently with her movements, like silk dancing in the wind. Tang Nian took a deep breath and said slowly, "No need, Master Haier. I am well aware of the risks and difficulties involved, but I know even more clearly that if I put my friends in such a dangerous situation because of my personal pursuit, it would be irresponsible to them and a blasphemy to the deep friendship between us."

In Tang Nian's heart, everyone in Shrek Academy is no longer just friends.

They fought side by side, grew up together, and experienced countless ups and downs with each other.

Now, even if what is waiting for Tang Nian ahead is the ferocious and brutal Netherworld Snake King, even if she may die at any time, Tang Nian will never let them accompany her to take risks.

But compared to dragging everyone to die with her, she would rather die alone. After all, for Tang Nian, death is nothing to be afraid of. She has already died once. She just can't bear to let go. She can't bear to let go of everything she has in Douluo Continent.

However, deep down in her heart, Tang Nian could not accept watching anyone from Shrek die in front of her eyes. She would never allow this to happen.

At this moment, Haier casually fiddled with the exquisite ring on his thumb and said in an indifferent tone, "Master Inheritor, please think carefully. It is true that you are extremely powerful, and I fully acknowledge this. However, if you rely on yourself to fight against the Nether Snake King, it can be said that you have no chance of winning."

After saying this, Haier began to scan Dai Mubai and the people behind him, and then continued slowly, "But if we can include them in the battle, the situation may be different."

In fact, when Haier first met these close friends mentioned by Tang Nian, he did not take them seriously.

After all, geniuses like Tang Nian who possess astonishing talents are extremely rare.

However, after witnessing the test that the Eight Sacred Pillars conducted on Dai Mubai, Haier could not help but be secretly surprised.

Among the ten people who had passed the difficult black test, eight of them had successfully been promoted to guardians of the Eight Sacred Pillars.

Their powerful strength is self-evident. More importantly, God Yama's high expectations for Dai Mubai far exceeded Haier's original imagination.

Whether for the sake of Yama God or for himself, Haier wanted Dai Mubai to stay. He wanted to see how strong these people really were.

At this moment, after hearing this, Tang Nian did not show the slightest hesitation on his face, but shook his head very firmly and said, "Lord Haier, please be sure to send them out of here."

Hearing this, Haier couldn't help but be slightly stunned, obviously a little surprised by Tang Nian's firm attitude.

After hesitating for a moment, he stared straight at Tang Nian, as if he wanted to see through the other's eyes and see what was in his heart.

However, after a long while, Haier finally loosened his clenched teeth and said softly, "Although according to the rules here, he has already participated in the test of the Eight Holy Pillars and should never leave this place, but since you are the inheritor, I will do my best to fulfill your request. Wait a moment, Natasha will send them away safely and unharmed."

After hearing Haier's words, Tang Nian, who had been tense all the time, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then thanked Haier with gratitude, "Thank you, Master Haier, for your help."
