Huo Yuntian almost burst out laughing when he heard that. He tried his best to hold back his laughter, overjoyed inside.
A mere youth under 12 years old actually dared to challenge a Spirit Douluo powerhouse of his level, a Sect Master of one of the Seven Great Sects?
Wouldn't that be an inevitable defeat?
This kid can't really think he can win, right?
"Arrogant kid, how could a dignified Spirit Douluo powerhouse and Sect Master like me be defeated by a young kid like you, heh."
Huo Yuntian felt disdain, but also great excitement. He hadn't expected such a difficult situation to be resolved so easily.
He quickly responded, "Hall Master Lin Yu, are your words true? Can your words directly represent Spirit Hall?"
"Of course," Lin Yu said indifferently.
"Hahahaha!" Huo Yuntian finally burst into loud laughter, adopting the posture of a strong person and saying, "Alright! I, Huo, accept! If Hall Master Lin Yu can defeat me, my Fire Leopard Sect will henceforth obey Spirit Hall and serve Master Lin Yu!"
"Roar!"
"Fire Leopard Possession!"
Huo Yuntian's aura surged, and a giant flaming leopard emerged. Beneath his feet, two yellow, two purple, and four black spirit rings appeared, a perfectly matched configuration.
He said smugly, "I've long heard that Hall Master Lin Yu is exceptionally talented, an unparalleled genius in the world today, who even achieved the feat of solo-killing a Spirit Emperor a few years ago!"
"Given time, Hall Master Lin Yu will certainly become an unrivaled Titled Douluo on the continent, and his future achievements will undoubtedly surpass mine, Huo."
"But to speak frankly, for you to challenge me now is a bit overestimating your own abilities!"
"I, Huo Yuntian, am still the Sect Master of the Fire Leopard Sect, one of the Seven Great Sects. You simply cannot defeat me."
The Elders behind him also secretly laughed, exchanging whispers: "This child is truly too arrogant. The Sect Master is an 85th-level Spirit Douluo. How dare this young Lin Yu boast and challenge the Sect Master? Isn't this just asking for trouble?"
"He can't really think that at such a young age, he can defeat the Sect Master, can he?"
"Hahaha! Geniuses are always arrogant, ignorant, and conceited. But thankfully, he's such an arrogant and ignorant kid! If any Titled DouluoElder from Spirit Hall had come today, our Fire Leopard Sect would probably have had to submit to Spirit Hall."
"We just hope the Sect Master doesn't crush this kid too badly later, lest he breaks his Dao heart and goes back on his word in a fit of rage!"
"Mmm, mmm, that makes sense. We should remind the Sect Master not to suppress Lin Yu too fiercely."
They all admitted that Lin Yu was very talented and powerful, and would certainly be strong in the future, but they absolutely would not believe that an 11-year-old boy could defeat a Spirit Douluo-level powerhouse.
Each of them was already overjoyed and confident of victory.
Huo Yuntian's lips curved slightly upward as he continued, "I wonder if Hall Master Lin Yu has broken through to the Spirit King realm yet! Do you want me to let you have ten moves?"
This was blatant contempt.
But Lin Yu had no objection. He smiled faintly, "Heh heh, no need, Fire Sect Master Huo. Let's just fight directly."
His Spirit emerged, and beneath his feet, six rings—purple, black, black, black, black, and red—all appeared.
"What! A 100,000-year spirit ring!"
"A six-ring Spirit Emperor!"
"He has actually reached the Spirit Emperor realm!"
"This! How is this possible!"
"This kid is actually so heaven-defying!"
The smiles on the faces of Huo Yuntian and the Elders instantly vanished. This scene shocked all the disciples watching from the Fire Leopard Sect.
"Make your move, Fire Sect Master Huo. I'll warn you first, if you don't take this seriously, you might not last ten moves against me." Lin Yu beckoned to Huo Yuntian with his finger.
"Absurd! Even if your spirit ring configuration is heaven-defying, you are still just a Spirit Emperor!"
"Take this attack!"
"First Spirit Ability, Fire Leopard Blazing Claw!"
"Hmph!" Huo Yuntian put away some of his contempt and attacked rapidly, striking at Lin Yu with a claw in an instant.
"Too slow, Fire Sect Master Huo." Lin Yu smiled, then raised his hand and blocked Huo Yuntian's claw with his bare hands.
Bang!
"What! He can easily block my claw!" Huo Yuntian was shocked: "I underestimated this kid."
"Hey, you don't have time to be shocked here," Lin Yu's playful voice rang out.
Huo Yuntian's face showed a hint of fear: "So fast..."
By the time he reacted, Lin Yu had already kicked him hard in the stomach.
"Scram!"
Bang!
"Ugh ah ah!" Huo Yuntian was sent flying dozens of meters by the kick, his face growing even more terrified: "This kid's strength is actually so immense!"
Ever since absorbing the Titan Giant Ape's 100,000-year spirit ring, Lin Yu's mental force and physical body had long surpassed ordinary Titled Douluo, even infinitely approaching the mental force and physique of a 95th-level Titled Douluo.
"In that case! Taste this move!"
"Fourth Spirit Ability, Fire Leopard Surprise Attack!"
"Roar!"
Huo Yuntian condensed a giant, tangible fire leopard, which attacked head-on at an extremely fast speed.
"A mere trick."
Seeing that Huo Yuntian still didn't plan to activate his Martial Soul True Body, Lin Yu shook his head helplessly and decisively released his Earth Barrier to block the attack.
But Huo Yuntian reacted extremely quickly. In that instant, he leaped high into the air and descended from above, striking with a claw.
However, this action completely made him a living target. Lin Yu decisively released his Spirit Bone ability: "Sky Azure Bull Python Right Arm Bone Skill, Sky Azure Sluggish Divine Claw!"
Unlike Spirit Abilities, Spirit Bone abilities can be cast instantly!
In that instant, Huo Yuntian couldn't react at all and was hit directly. His six senses and physical mobility were immediately slowed by ten times!
"Not good! My body!" Huo Yuntian's face turned ugly.
"Titan Giant Ape Left Leg Bone Skill, Titan Vault Break!"
The surrounding space instantly compressed into terrifying energy, imbued with the power of the Titan Giant Ape, and blasted towards Huo Yuntian in the sky.
"Not good!"
Bang! Boom boom!
Splatter~!
"Ah ah ah~!" Huo Yuntian screamed as he was instantly knocked down from the sky by Lin Yu, slamming heavily onto the ground.
He was severely injured in one blow!
"Sect Master!"
The Elders panicked. Their Sect Master was actually... actually being thrashed!
Lin Yu was majestic and awe-inspiring, like an invincible existence, walking step by step towards Huo Yuntian.
His voice seemed to echo throughout the entire Fire Leopard Sect. He was expressionless: "I told you before, if you don't take this seriously, you might not last ten moves against me."
"So strong... This kid is actually so powerful. I greatly underestimated his strength!"
"Damn it!"
"Seventh Spirit Ability, Fire Leopard True Body!"
"It's too late for you to activate your Martial Soul True Body now." Lin Yu looked indifferently at the giant fire leopard in front of him, still calm and composed.
"Eighth Spirit Ability, Fire Leopard Mad Annihilation!"
"Ugh ah ah!" Huo Yuntian roared frantically, unleashing a full-power attack.
"Sixth Spirit Ability, Angel Titan Fist!"
"It's over, Fire Sect Master Huo."
Behind Lin Yu, a giant hundred-meter-tall angel instantly appeared, terrifying the entire Fire Leopard Sect.
