The Shock of the Three Lives Martial Soul, the Battle with a Titled Douluo
The next moment, Ji Xiao rushed forward. As he advanced, his fifth soul ring lit up brilliantly.
His already thick and razor-sharp right claw suddenly grew even more ferocious. A yellow halo shimmered around the five fingertips, containing terrifying armor-breaking power.
"Go to hell!"
Ji Xiao let out a savage laugh. He was fully aware of Huo Yuhao's talent. It was no exaggeration to call him the number one genius of the Douluo Continent in this generation.
If Yuhao were given time to grow into a seven-ring Soul Saint or even an eight-ring Soul Douluo, Ji Xiao might not necessarily be his opponent.
But unfortunately, Yuhao would never have that chance.
Because today, he would die beneath his claws.
The thought of personally killing such a heaven-defying genius made Ji Xiao's blood boil with excitement.
It was precisely because of that excitement that he failed to notice Yuhao's calm and indifferent gaze—and the faint trace of anticipation hidden within it.
"Yuhao!"
"Young Master!"
Ji Xiao's attack could not escape the sight of Du BuShui and the others. But with their own opponents desperately entangling them, they could only shout anxiously.
"Shrek, the Sun Moon Empire, and the Holy Spirit Church—I, Du BuShui, will drive you all away in this lifetime!"
Du BuShui roared. He desperately wanted to break free and rescue Yuhao, but Long Xiaoyao's strength truly surpassed his own. He was firmly suppressed and unable to move away.
...
Under everyone's gaze, Ji Xiao's dragon claw descended toward Yuhao's head.
Buzz—
A dazzling golden light suddenly erupted, swallowing both Yuhao and Ji Xiao within it. No one could see clearly what was happening inside the radiant brilliance.
The next instant, a voice filled with shock rang out.
"No… impossible!"
As the golden light gradually faded, the two figures reappeared before everyone.
But the scene was completely different from what they had expected.
Instead of Yuhao being torn apart by Ji Xiao's claw, a massive golden dragon claw covered in radiant scales had blocked the attack.
And that golden dragon claw belonged to Yuhao.
Feeling the immense power contained within the golden claw—and the aura that instinctively made his martial spirit tremble—Ji Xiao's face changed drastically. He could not comprehend what kind of force Yuhao had unleashed.
Yan Shaozhe, Jing Hongchen, and the others were equally stunned.
Golden dragon claw?
Wasn't Huo Yuhao's martial soul his Spirit Eyes and the Ice Jade Empress Scorpion? Where did this golden dragon power come from?
In an instant, a terrifying possibility flashed through everyone's minds.
Ji Xiao thought of it as well.
"Three Lives Martial Soul?!"
"Correct. But unfortunately, there's no reward."
Yuhao's lips curved slightly.
In the next moment, he fully released the power of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline.
Chi—chi—
Layer upon layer of golden dragon scales spread outward from beneath his skin, starting from his right claw, extending across his chest, and then enveloping his left arm.
In the blink of an eye, Yuhao's entire upper body was clad in resplendent golden scales. Both hands had transformed completely into dragon claws.
His eyes turned into vertical golden pupils, filled with ancient majesty and dominance.
Roar!
Yuhao could not help but release a dragon's roar.
The piercing and majestic dragon cry echoed across the battlefield, causing even space itself to ripple.
Ji Xiao, who stood closest, felt an overwhelming suppression descend upon him—a suppression from a higher lifeform. His Overlord Earth Dragon martial spirit trembled violently, as though it might separate from his body.
Startled, he immediately retreated.
Not only him—even Long Xiaoyao, who was battling Du BuShui fiercely in midair, felt his soul power fluctuate violently. Du BuShui seized the opportunity and forced him back with a punch.
After stabilizing himself, Long Xiaoyao looked down at Yuhao.
When he saw Yuhao's Golden Dragon King form, his pupils contracted sharply.
He had never seen such a martial spirit before.
But one thing was certain—this was a dragon-type martial spirit of a level even higher than his Dark Holy Dragon.
"Incredible…"
At that moment, he finally understood why Mu En had insisted that Yuhao must die.
If it were anyone else, they too would not allow such a terrifying genius to grow unchecked.
After a brief silence, Long Xiaoyao sighed softly.
"What a pity that you and I stand as enemies. Otherwise, I truly would have liked to see what heights you could reach."
Despite his shock, Long Xiaoyao could clearly sense that Yuhao's soul power was still only around Rank 40.
No matter how heaven-defying a third martial soul might be, how could a four-ring Soul Ancestor defeat a Titled Douluo?
...
On the other side, Ji Xiao quickly suppressed his initial shock.
"I am a Titled Douluo. Even if this brat possesses a third martial soul, he is no match for me!"
Regaining confidence, Ji Xiao prepared to strike again.
Yuhao, meanwhile, fully activated the Golden Dragon King bloodline martial soul. At the same time, three dazzling golden soul rings rose around him.
Looking at Ji Xiao, Yuhao grinned exaggeratedly.
"In the Continental Soul Master Elite Tournament, do you know why I always held back?"
Ji Xiao had no interest in answering. His only thought was to kill Yuhao.
As Yuhao spoke, Ji Xiao's seventh soul ring lit up.
Roar!
With a deafening roar, Ji Xiao's body expanded rapidly, transforming toward the form of a colossal dragon.
In just a few breaths, he had turned into a massive Overlord Earth Dragon over ten meters tall, exuding overwhelming pressure.
Martial Soul Avatar!
This signified that Ji Xiao was now unleashing his full strength as a Titled Douluo.
Yuhao seemed unconcerned. Only when the massive dragon form charged toward him did he finish his sentence with a ferocious smile:
"Because their strength was too weak. It wasn't worth using my true power."
As his words fell, Yuhao's aura surged once more.
An invisible pressure spread outward from his body.
The instant Ji Xiao's dragon avatar approached Yuhao, that invisible force descended upon him.
Then—
He knelt.
Yes, knelt.
Like a minister before a king, Ji Xiao's dragon body bent uncontrollably, his will to resist nearly collapsing.
Not only him—even Long Xiaoyao felt the suppression.
Although he did not kneel like Ji Xiao, his overall attributes were forcibly suppressed by a significant margin.
Even a reduction of ten percent in attributes could determine the outcome of a battle.
Originally evenly matched against Du BuShui, Long Xiaoyao suddenly found himself struggling under the poison domain's assault.
"How can my power weaken so suddenly?!"
While resisting Du BuShui's attacks, Long Xiaoyao glanced toward Yuhao in disbelief.
In his eyes, only Yuhao could have caused such an impossible phenomenon.
This was one of the abilities Yuhao obtained after breaking the first seal of the Golden Dragon King—Dragon's Might.
Dragon's Might could suppress all dragon-type enemies and amplify dragon-type allies.
Whether the opponent was a dragon soul beast, a dragon-bloodline soul master, or even an Ultimate Douluo with a dragon martial spirit, suppression was inevitable.
Before the majesty of the Golden Dragon King—the supreme ruler of dragonkind—every dragon lineage had no choice but to bow.
