The three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts grew wary at the sight of the soul rings beneath Qian Yu and Yan Shaozhe's feet…
The next moment, the Purple-Gold Python viciously opened its fang-filled maw wide, lunging forward to bite at Huo Yuhao…
Huo Yuhao's first soul ring lit up beneath his feet as he called out, "First Soul Skill, Ice Emperor's Claw!"
His hands and forearms became extremely tough, each diamond crystal on them possessing formidable refractive power…
Then, fearlessly executing the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, he dodged the Purple-Gold Python's bite like a wraith and took the opportunity to punch fiercely at its abdomen…
The Purple-Gold Python spat out a "ssss" sound from its mouth as its massive body stumbled backward several meters after being struck…
Only then, seeing that Huo Yuhao indeed had the power to contend with a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, did Qian Yu and Yan Shaozhe withdraw their gazes and turned their attention to the Great Strength King Kong Ape and the Fiery Moonlit Lion, respectively!
Soon after, a phoenix, radiating with white light, appeared behind Yan Shaozhe, and his first soul ring lit up beneath his feet…
"First Soul Skill, Radiance Incineration!"
The wings of the Bright Phoenix burst into scorching white flames that it then flapped towards the Great Strength King Kong Ape…
Once separated from the Bright Phoenix, the white flames spread rapidly, assaulting the Great Strength King Kong Ape with a terrifying burning sensation…
The Great Strength King Kong Ape struck its solid chest fiercely with its hand and raised its thick arm to punch at the flames…
"Boom!" With terrifying force, it scattered the white flames…
Yan Shaozhe frowned upon seeing this…
The power of this hundred-thousand-year soul beast was even stronger than he expected!
Bei Bei, watching from the side, exclaimed, "Such strong attack power, it shattered the Bright Phoenix's flames with a single punch!"
Tang Ya expressed her concern, "Is this the power of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast? Can Yuhao withstand it?"
Jiang Nannan pondered, "He should be able to cope, right? Yuhao already has six hundred-thousand-year soul rings under his feet, right? It means he has already slain six hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!"
Tang Wutong smiled and said, "Let's have faith in them. What we need to do is to protect these outer courtyard freshmen!"
…
Having seen the others choose their opponents, Qian Yu's calm gaze finally settled on the Fiery Moonlit Lion before him, "So, you're my opponent?"
The Fiery Moonlit Lion, seemingly sensing the disdain in Qian Yu's words, let out an angry roar…
Immediately after, its terrifyingly large claw, spanning over a dozen meters, slammed towards Qian Yu below…
Before it could even touch Qian Yu, a white protective barrier blocked it, colliding with a "bang"…
The huge backlash from the explosion instantly repelled the Fiery Moonlit Lion…
Only then did Qian Yu release her Martial Soul, as a Netherworld Angel, even more terrifying than the Fiery Moonlit Lion at a hundred meters in size, quietly emerged…
She suddenly opened her pitch-black pupils, fixing her gaze intently on the Fiery Moonlit Lion below…
As Qian Yu's first golden soul ring suddenly brightened beneath her feet…
Black light flickered in the Netherworld Angel's pupils, and a terrifying beam of light shot out instantly, blasting towards the Fiery Moonlit Lion in front of her…
The latter noticed the incoming beam and swiftly moved its massive body in an attempt to dodge the assault…
Unfortunately, the beam had tracking capabilities! Even the former Xuan Zi hadn't been able to escape it!
The Fiery Moonlit Lion, realizing it couldn't dodge, simply stopped trying to evade. Its body erupted in the ultimate scarlet flames, forming an exceedingly hard protective shield of fire!
But the next second, it was instantly penetrated by the beam, and it struck the lion's body directly…
The Fiery Moonlit Lion opened its huge mouth and roared, "Roar!!!"
Qian Yu looked on calmly at this, "Why roar? That move doesn't have any lethal power anyway."
The Fiery Moonlit Lion, which understood human speech, ceased its roaring and its eyes revealed a look of confusion…
At the bottom of his heart, he was probably thinking, "Eh? It seems like getting hit by this attack really doesn't hurt!"
Qian Yu revealed a smile and said, "The pain comes next!"
The third soul ring under his feet lit up…
Immediately, the Netherworld Angel behind him brought her hands together, generating endless black mist…
A fearsome Netherworld Sword, radiating an intimidating aura, was being formed within…
After grasping the Netherworld Sword, the Netherworld Angel suddenly charged toward the Fiery Moonlit Lion…
The latter, still in confusion, snapped out of it under the threat of death, leaping to the left to dodge the swing of the Netherworld Angel's blade…
The Netherworld Angel narrowed her eyes, as evil power surged into the Netherworld Sword…
Not until the blade of the Netherworld Sword emitted a scattering black aura did she strike again toward the Fiery Moonlit Lion…
The sharp Black Sword Qi that burst forth from within the Netherworld Sword, carrying a force that could tear anything apart, rushed toward it…
Before it could react, the Black Sword Qi effortlessly pierced through its body…
"Pff!" A sound erupted, the large body of the Fiery Moonlit Lion was torn in half, turning into a blood-drenched bisected corpse…
The crimson liquid contained within exploded like a fountain…
A soul ring with a mysterious red glow emerged from its body…
Qian Yu glanced at the corpse of the Fiery Moonlit Lion and said indifferently, "Seems like I went a bit too hard, I actually wanted to play a bit longer."
The members of the Tang Sect watching nearby were no longer surprised seeing Qian Yu take down a hundred-thousand-year soul beast in less than three minutes!
Even if he were to kill a level-99 Ultimate Douluo, a demigod-level powerhouse, none of them would be surprised!
Compared to Qian Yu, Yan Shaozhe and Huo Yuhao were locked in a tight battle with those two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts…
Huo Yuhao's seventh soul ring under his feet lit up…
He exclaimed, "Martial Soul True Body: Ice Emperor's Descent!"
The Martial Soul True Body associated with his seventh soul ring was different from others; it allowed the Ice Emperor to possess him and enhance his own strength!
Huo Yuhao's aura started to wildly transform, a piercing coldness emanating from his body…
The fluctuation of his soul power became extremely unstable…
On the other side, the Purple-Gold Python, sensing a power that it almost desired to submit to, gradually filled its eyes with fear…
But that wasn't all; both the voices of the Ice Emperor and Huo Yuhao resonated, "Sixth Soul Skill, Extreme Ice Amplification!"
His sixth soul ring also lit up…
The ice property aura on him obtained another terrifying surge…
Huo Yuhao's eyes ice-cold, uttered a sentence, "Third Soul Skill, Emperor's Claw, Utter Cold without Snow!"
When the third soul ring lit up, tiny white snowflakes began to fall in the surrounding space…
A massive ice-blue palm imprint condensed in front of Huo Yuhao, and in the next instant, it blasted toward the trying-to-dodge Purple-Gold Python…
In an instant, its body was covered with Diamond Dust, and seconds later, an ice sculpture tens of meters in size emerged…
For a moment, "Bang…" a loud explosion of ice echoed, the ice-sealed Purple-Gold Python instantly shattered into debris…
In contrast, Huo Yuhao collapsed onto the icy ground, his head swimming in intense dizziness…
Watching from the side, Qian Yu's mouth twitched, "That shouldn't happen, right? Can fighting a hundred-thousand-year soul beast actually kill someone?"
