The three Soul Kings stood there in silence, like towering, insurmountable mountains.
They did not speak a word, nor did they even spare a single glance at Yan, Xie Yue, and Hu Liena.
They merely gave Lin Zhendong a slight nod.
This indifferent attitude seemed to reveal an unspoken disdain toward the three young challengers.
Lin Zhendong returned the gesture with a polite but minimal nod, then turned to face his three students, his eyes gleaming with both seriousness and expectation.
"Are you ready?"
"We are ready."
The three responded in unison, their voices filled with determination and resolve.
"Then, who will go first?"
Lin Zhendong's gaze swept over them.
Xie Yue stepped forward without hesitation.
"Instructor Lin, I will go first."
Lin Zhendong appreciated Xie Yue's courage and nodded approvingly.
"Very well, you will be the first to demonstrate your strength."
Then, he turned to Yan and Hu Liena and said:
"You two, watch closely. Today, as it is the first day of special training, I will allow you to observe from the sidelines—to see how your teammate loses. But starting tomorrow, you will face the challenge together."
There was a hint of mockery in Lin Zhendong's words, as if he had already determined that the three of them were bound to fail.
Hearing this, Hu Liena frowned slightly, an unyielding fire igniting in her heart.
She hated the idea of accepting defeat, even if the opponent was far stronger.
Unlike Hu Liena, Yan remained calm and composed.
He understood that even in failure, valuable experience could be gained, preparing them for future challenges.
Under everyone's gaze, Xie Yue strode forward confidently, while his opponent—a towering, two-meter-tall, burly Soul King—stepped up to meet him without hesitation.
The two stood face to face, and the atmosphere grew tense.
Xie Yue clenched his fists and respectfully introduced himself:
"Xie Yue, Rank 41, Assault-type Battle Soul Master. Please advise."
His opponent responded with a slight bow of his fists:
"Ye Hao, Rank 52, Defense-type Battle Soul King. Please advise."
Upon hearing that his opponent was a Defense-type Soul Master, Xie Yue's mind shifted slightly.
He had initially expected to face a powerful Assault or Control-type opponent. He hadn't anticipated encountering a Defense-type fighter instead.
Compared to Assault and Control-type Soul Masters, Defense-type and Support-type Soul Masters were generally considered easier to deal with since their offensive capabilities were not as dominant.
Even so, Xie Yue remained cautious.
Defense-type Soul Masters might have weaker attacks, but their defensive power was formidable, and Ye Hao's soul power was 52, over ten ranks higher than his own.
When Hu Liena heard that her brother's opponent was a Defense-type Soul Master, a faint smile appeared on her face.
She knew that Xie Yue's self-created soul skill, "Full Moon," possessed immense offensive power.
Perhaps he truly had a chance to break through the Rank 52 Defense-type Soul King's defenses.
This was not just a test—it was an opportunity to prove himself.
She silently cheered for her brother in her heart, eager to see him triumph in this challenge.
The battle officially began.
A sharp light flickered in Xie Yue's eyes as he quickly channeled his soul power, releasing his Moon Blade martial soul.
Behind him, the twin crescent blades shimmered with a cold, menacing glow, resembling a mystical crescent moon floating in the air.
Two yellow and two purple soul rings coiled around him—the optimal configuration for a Soul Ancestor, proving his strength.
In response, Ye Hao remained unfazed and immediately released his martial soul and soul rings.
Yan and Hu Liena focused their attention on him, eager to see what kind of martial soul he would reveal.
Suddenly, a colossal beast materialized behind Ye Hao.
It was as towering as a mountain, exuding an aura of unbreakable resilience.
At the same time, five soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and one black—appeared around Ye Hao, radiating an intense brilliance.
That black, ten-thousand-year soul ring, with its swirling dark glow, carried an overwhelming presence.
Seeing this, Hu Liena was completely stunned.
She had never expected that Ye Hao's martial soul would be the Diamond Mammoth!
The Diamond Mammoth was a top-tier martial soul known for its extreme defensive capabilities. Its defining traits lay in its unparalleled strength and indestructible defenses.
This type of martial soul was exclusive to the direct disciples of the Elephant Armored Sect, which was precisely why the Elephant Armored Sect was hailed as the strongest defense-oriented sect on the continent.
Ye Hao's two yellow, two purple, and one black soul rings were also in the optimal configuration, further proving his talent and strength.
At this moment, Ye Hao stood there like an unmovable mountain, waiting for the challenge ahead.
Xie Yue's gaze became serious. He knew that his opponent—a Rank 52 Defense-type Battle Soul King—had an exceptionally formidable defense.
Thus, he chose to test the waters first, aiming to gauge his opponent's true capabilities.
With a sudden burst of radiance from his first soul ring, Xie Yue unleashed his first soul skill—Moon Wheel Flying Blades.
Several crescent-shaped energy waves shot forward at high speed, aiming directly at Ye Hao.
However, against the Diamond Mammoth's unbreakable defense, these attacks were like stones sinking into the ocean, failing to create even the slightest ripple.
"As expected—his defense is terrifying!"
Xie Yue did not feel discouraged. He had already anticipated this outcome.
The Diamond Mammoth's defense was renowned across the Soul Master world.
He frowned slightly, quickly calculating his next move.
"Let's increase my attack power and see what happens."
Without hesitation, Xie Yue activated his third soul skill—Crescent Blade.
This was a boosting ability that could instantly increase his attack power by 150%—one of the strongest offensive techniques he currently possessed.
However, even with such a powerful attack, he only managed to leave a shallow mark on the Diamond Mammoth's body.
That diamond-hard physique remained completely unshaken.
Hu Liena, watching from the sidelines, felt her heart pounding.
Although she knew the Diamond Mammoth's defense was legendary, witnessing Xie Yue's attacks being neutralized so effortlessly was still a shocking sight.
Yan, on the other hand, remained calm and composed.
He silently analyzed the battlefield, carefully observing every move and technique displayed by Xie Yue and Ye Hao.
He even imagined, "If I were the one facing this absolute defense, how would I counter it?"
At this moment, Xie Yue had truly experienced the terror of the Diamond Mammoth's defense.
He understood that his ordinary attacks posed no threat to this Defense-type Battle Soul King.
Thus, he began to adjust his strategy, contemplating how to leverage his speed and agility to find an opening.
The battle continued.
Xie Yue launched wave after wave of attacks, trying different angles and methods to probe Ye Hao's defenses, hoping to find even the slightest weakness.
However, Ye Hao remained calm and vigilant, keeping up his solid defensive stance.
By using an unyielding defense to counter all changes, he left Xie Yue with no opportunities to exploit.
This clash of spear versus shield dragged on, and Xie Yue's continuous attacks gradually wore him down, consuming a massive amount of stamina.
Seeing Xie Yue panting, Ye Hao suddenly spoke coldly:
"Kid, are you out of energy? Don't think that all I have is defense—get ready to take my attack!"
