"Clang—"

Just then, Xu He's rescue blade light arrived, and the bone-chilling silver blade energy instantly slashed towards Chu Kuang's back.

But it was as if Chu Kuang had eyes in the back of his head. He casually pulled his Iron Spear back and flicked it out, the sharp edge colliding with the blade light, producing a piercing sound of metal clashing. A mighty force sent Xu He flying back several yards.

Then Chu Kuang took a step forward, his war spear cutting through the air with a gold-splitting sharpness, striking Zhang Tianyi's right shoulder.

"Your arm has been attacked, instantly enduring a force exceeding 6387KG. The Intelligent Brain has determined your arm has been severed, and you have lost fifty percent of your combat power."

A broadcast voice from Zhang Tianyi's Battle Armor startled him, causing a cold sweat to break out on his forehead. If not for the armor's protection, this spear thrust would have completely crippled him.

In that instant, Xu He, on the other side, had already grasped the outcome. Without looking back, he fled, decisively choosing to escape the battlefield.

"Clang—"

Chu Kuang paid no mind to Xu He's escape. The edge of his great spear whistled through the air, continuing its fierce assault on the injured Zhang Tianyi.

After only three exchanges, the great spear in his hand had already pierced Zhang Tianyi's throat, creating golden sparks as it collided with the alloy Battle Armor.

Simultaneously, a broadcast voice from Zhang Tianyi's Battle Armor announced, "You have been defeated. The Battle Armor will take over your actions and send you out of the Dark Domain."

"Your strength, even in the elite class, is considered upper-middle tier. I have no regrets losing this fight."

Before leaving, Zhang Tianyi sighed regretfully, "What a shame. I should have listened to you and given up on this Source Energy Spring Eye directly."

"Your strength is good, but unfortunately, you met me."

Chu Kuang calmly retracted his war spear. After Zhang Tianyi left, he strode into the valley.

At this moment, the wolf-like bio-beast in the valley was slowly rising, a sinister glint quietly gathering in its pupils.

"Wolf Lizard Beast."

Looking at this ancient beast, a solemn expression appeared in Chu Kuang's eyes.

Wolf Lizard Beast, order Lichyodonta.

Around 200 million years ago, during the Permian Period, the Wolf Lizard Beast ruled the Earth and was one of the first terrestrial overlords of ancient Earth.

Later, after several great extinctions, creatures like the Wolf Lizard Beast, dinosaurs, and Megalodon sharks completely disappeared. Everyone thought they were extinct.

It wasn't until later that people discovered these giant beasts had actually entered the Dark Domain behind the Earth, becoming terrifying Source Energy Fierce Beasts.

When human civilization first mastered spatial technology and opened the Dark Domain on the far side of Earth, they were stunned.

Countless ancient Source Energy Fierce Beasts like the Wolf Lizard Beast, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Titanoboa emerged, causing immense disaster to human civilization at that time.

Fortunately, human civilization was not weak then. They repelled these emerging Source Energy Fierce Beasts with technological means. Later, they developed the marvelous uses of Source Energy, and through martial arts, they gradually gained complete control of the Dark Domain on the far side of Earth.

To this day, the gene maps of fierce beasts like the Wolf Lizard Beast and Tyrannosaurus Rex have long been completely mastered by human civilization.

These bio-beasts used for student training are basically cloned from the genes of various ancient Earth fierce beasts.

"Although the Wolf Lizard Beast cannot compare to Source Energy Fierce Beasts like the Tyrannosaurus Rex, it is still extremely powerful among creatures of the same Life Level."

Chu Kuang murmured to himself, slightly raising his alertness.

At this moment, the Wolf Lizard Beast before him slowly crouched down, a trace of Bloody Aura in its eyes almost completely solidified, but it did not immediately attack.

Chu Kuang understood that a Chip had been implanted in the Wolf Lizard Beast's brain. Its primary purpose was to guard the Source Energy Spring Eye. Chu Kuang would not be attacked unless he entered its range.

"An ancient fierce beast, renowned."

"Let me experience its might."

Chu Kuang whispered to himself, calmly stepping over the boundary.

Instantly, a wolf howl echoed. The Wolf Lizard Beast lunged from the shadows, its claws tearing through the air, bringing with them several streaks of cold, dark blue light that slashed towards Chu Kuang.

Chu Kuang neither dodged nor blocked. He circulated the power of his Iron Armor Technique and thrust his war spear forward.

But at that very moment, the Wolf Lizard Beast's body suddenly shifted sideways, evading that thrust and then pouncing towards Chu Kuang.

It turned out the Wolf Lizard Beast was prepared. Its first move was merely a probing feint; this second move was the one hiding a fatal killing intent.

"A cunning fierce beast."

Chu Kuang said calmly, dodging the attack by a hair's breadth at the last second.

"Clang—!"

The sound of metal striking metal erupted. The Wolf Lizard Beast's claws grazed the edge of the alloy Battle Armor, the wind from its attack creating a string of sparks.

Chu Kuang's body swayed slightly, and he used the momentum to create several yards of distance. But the Wolf Lizard Beast, having missed its target, pressed its advantage, its long tail sweeping like a whip, its bony spurs aimed directly at Chu Kuang's forehead.

"Such speed."

Facing the ferocious Bloody Aura of the Wolf Lizard Beast, Chu Kuang suddenly slammed his war spear onto the ground, using the force to leap into the air.

Then, spear following man, he executed 'Golden Spear Piercing the Sun,' descending from the heavens. The spear tip deflected the wolf's tail, and with undiminished momentum, it thrust directly at the Wolf Lizard Beast's throat.

This strike was sharp and exposed. If the Wolf Lizard Beast dared to meet it head-on, it would likely be impaled on the spot.

However, the Wolf Lizard Beast seemed to possess some form of sentience. At the critical moment, its head rapidly swerved, and the spear tip only managed to carve a bloody gash along its neck.

Having suffered a minor injury, the Wolf Lizard Beast let out a pained roar and then forcefully pushed off the ground with its hind legs, its entire body lunging like a falling boulder.

At this critical juncture, Chu Kuang remained remarkably calm.

The Blood Battle in All Directions was activated instantly, allowing Chu Kuang to pinpoint its weak spot beneath its belly. His ten-foot War Spear suddenly moved like a swimming dragon, an invisible force surging through the long spear. The spear tip thrust upward at an incredible angle.

"Pfft!"

A crisp sound echoed as the spear pierced three inches into the wolf-lizard's belly. The Wolf Lizard Beast let out a roar that shook the wilderness.

Chu Kuang seized the opportunity, spinning around and kicking the Wolf Lizard Beast heavily in the chest. The War Spear was yanked out, trailing a spray of blood.

"Roar—"

This Wolf Lizard Beast was indeed a bio-beast cloned from a Source Energy Fierce Beast. It roared even after sustaining such a severe injury.

It thrashed in its death throes, lunging at Chu Kuang with a terrifying bloody aura, its foul breath washing over him.

Facing this attack, Chu Kuang retreated as if he had foreseen it. As the Wolf Lizard Beast crashed to the ground, his War Spear once again burst with golden light and thrust forward, piercing its skull with a plop.

The sound of cracking bone was clearly audible. The Wolf Lizard Beast crashed to the ground, its limbs twitching a few times before finally losing all life.

"Its strength is average."

Chu Kuang murmured inwardly. This battle hadn't been too difficult for him; the entire engagement lasted only a few breaths.

In Chu Kuang's estimation, the strength of this Wolf Lizard Beast was roughly comparable to Lin Shuyao's, perhaps slightly stronger, but not by much.

If two or three individuals who had achieved Great Accomplishment in External Martial Arts joined forces, they would have a good chance of defeating it.

If it were someone with Great Accomplishment in External Martial Arts combined with Great Accomplishment in weapon martial arts, then at most two would be needed to defeat it with certainty.

"If the strength of all Source Energy Fierce Beasts is only at this level, then this trip to the Dark Domain won't be too difficult."
