As expected, when they arrived at the Colosseum, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo were already waiting there.
Xian Lin'er asked directly:
"Do you still need a warm-up? If not, let's start quickly."
What a decisive Dean.
While smiling bitterly in his heart, Huo Yuhao nodded at her.
"I'm fine, let's start now."
"Okay, go to the arena. I'll go inform Elder Gong."
After speaking, Xian Lin'er turned and left.
Huo Yuhao shrugged and went to the center of the arena as Xian Lin'er had instructed.
Not long after, the iron gate on the west side of the Colosseum was opened. Following a low roar, a golden shadow rapidly rushed towards him.
A Golden Leopard, slightly over a thousand years old, was already considered quite strong among the Soul Beasts raised by Shrek Academy.
Metal-attributed Soul Beasts generally possess physical strength far exceeding ordinary Soul Beasts, and this leopard-type Soul Beast was even faster. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived before Huo Yuhao.
Facing its attack, Huo Yuhao surprisingly didn't dodge or evade. He just stood there with his arms crossed, watching it charge at him.
Qian Duoduo frowned.
"What is this kid doing? Why isn't he using his Soul Tool barrier yet?"
Fan Yu, on the other hand, watched this scene nervously.
Unlike Qian Duoduo, who only knew that Huo Yuhao had created a Level 6 Soul Tool, Fan Yu knew that Huo Yuhao had obtained a top-tier torso bone. Therefore, he could somewhat guess what Huo Yuhao intended to do.
But even so, wasn't this a bit too arrogant...
However, what happened on the field the next second told him that Huo Yuhao wasn't arrogant at all.
Huo Yuhao didn't dodge until the very end. The Golden Leopard's wide-open maw bit down on his shoulder, but to everyone's surprise, its sharp teeth couldn't even pierce Huo Yuhao's skin.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes.
Actually, he wanted to use the Golden Leopard's teeth to test the performance of his Heavenly Dream Armor, but he didn't expect that the opponent couldn't even break his defense.
Among the four Soul Skills brought by the Heavenly Dream Iceworm's Shedding, Heavenly Dream Armor was the only passive skill. Its effect was also simple: it permanently enhanced Huo Yuhao's surface defense.
In a sense, this was similar to the pure strength-type soul bone Huo Yuhao had bluffed about to Fan Yu, except the Heavenly Dream Iceworm's Shedding provided defense, and there were other Soul Skills as well.
It was precisely because of the existence of this Soul Skill that Huo Yuhao's strongest attribute was currently not the power or spiritual attribute of his Ghost Eye White Tiger Martial Soul, but rather his defensive ability.
Even Huo Yuhao himself wasn't clear on how strong his current defense was, which was why he wanted the opponent to test the performance of the Heavenly Dream Armor.
Since this Golden Leopard couldn't provide Huo Yuhao with a satisfactory answer, Huo Yuhao naturally didn't need to keep it around anymore.
Over the past year, he had dealt with these Soul Beasts quite a bit and knew deeply that there was no need to hold back when fighting them; they were much fiercer than humans.
A white tiger claw fiercely swung out, and the Golden Leopard was sent flying backward like a broken sandbag, flying over twenty meters before hitting the ground.
Strangely, the part of the Golden Leopard hit by Huo Yuhao's fist only dented inwards, but its head had vanished before it even landed.
Seeing this, Xian Lin'er's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
"Only a holiday has passed, how did this kid suddenly become so fierce..."
As a Super Douluo, she was very clear about what had just happened on the field.
The Golden Leopard's head exploded the moment Huo Yuhao's fist struck its body.
Clearly, this was the effect of Imperial Dominance. The mixture of soul power and spiritual power allowed all of Huo Yuhao's attacks to possess dual damage.
This was a thousand-year-level Golden Leopard, an existence that even Soul Sects outside might not be able to easily defeat. Yet, it was killed with a single punch without any ability to retaliate?
"Dean Xian, it's like this..."
Fan Yu quickly repeated what Huo Yuhao had told him to the two Deans.
Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo suddenly understood.
"So that's how it is. I didn't expect this child to be so lucky."
Qian Duoduo asked hesitantly:
"Lin'er, what should we do? It seems thousand-year-level Soul Beasts can't put pressure on this child anymore."
Among the Soul Beasts raised in the Colosseum, although the Golden Leopard was strong, it wasn't actually in the strongest tier.
Shrek Academy actually kept three ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts. The problem was that Soul Beasts of this level were top-tier assets even for Shrek and couldn't be used casually.
It wasn't that Qian Duoduo was reluctant to throw them into the Limit Single Soldier Plan, it was just that he felt even they might not be able to handle the current Huo Yuhao, and sending them up just to die in vain would be too wasteful.
Xian Lin'er thought for a moment and said lightly:
"Send up three more thousand-year Soul Beasts for him to fight. I'll go call someone."
Qian Duoduo was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"You mean call people from the Inner Court?"
Xian Lin'er nodded gently.
"Yes, since Soul Beasts can't easily deal with him anymore, let Soul Masters do it."
As she said this, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Perfect. It's also time for him to get acquainted with the members of our Main Team."
"Uh..."
Qian Duoduo glanced at Huo Yuhao on the field with a hint of sympathy.
The weakest members of Shrek's Main Team were all Soul Kings, and the captain, Dai Yaheng, was even a Soul Emperor. It seemed this kid was going to suffer next.
Huo Yuhao didn't know what the two Deans and Fan Yu were saying in the spectator stands. After dealing with the Golden Leopard, he maintained a vigilant posture, observing his surroundings, ready to start fighting again at any moment.
Soon, as three roars sounded, the iron gates on the east, west, and south sides of the Colosseum were opened, and three thousand-year Soul Beasts entered the arena from different directions.
From the east came the Blazing Flame Lion King, its entire body wreathed in scorching flames, the surrounding air slightly distorted by the high temperature of the fire.
From the west was a white ape, looking very agile, with cunning light flickering in its eyes.
From the south was a huge rhinoceros, standing a full six meters tall, its sturdy body reflecting a metallic sheen.
"A Blazing Flame Lion King, an Azure Wind Ape, and an Iron Armor Rhino."
Huo Yuhao recognized the identities of these three Soul Beasts with a single glance.
Although wars generally didn't require dealing with Soul Beasts, just in case, the Limit Single Soldier Plan still taught knowledge related to Soul Beasts. Therefore, now facing most Soul Beasts, Huo Yuhao only needed a glance to recognize their identities.
These three all belonged to the relatively top-tier Soul Beasts. While there was a significant gap between them and those powerful Super Soul Beasts, they were not opponents that could be underestimated.
Perfect, it's more interesting when they are stronger. He can use them to test the power of his other new Soul Skills.
