"Vermin, behold my sword!"

Seeing the Tyrannosaurus Rex rampaging, Ye Shuanghen gritted his teeth and unleashed his full power, transforming into nine illusions that attacked from all directions. With a single move, Sword Rises Flowing Cloud, he thrust towards the Tyrannosaurus Rex's weak points, such as its eyes, joints, throat, and cracked scales.

"Pfft!"

The nine illusions merged into one and struck the Tyrannosaurus Rex's throat. However, they only penetrated an inch before getting stuck.

This damage barely pierced the skin and was no more than a tickle to the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Not good!"

Ye Shuanghen's heart sank. He immediately wanted to abandon his sword and flee, but it was too late.

Under the pain, the Tyrannosaurus Rex erupted with unimaginable speed and swallowed him whole in one bite. For a moment, it even seemed to swallow, but after a slight pause, it flung Ye Shuanghen away.

In an instant, Ye Shuanghen, along with his sword, was sent flying dozens of feet, embedding deeply into the cliff face of the valley.

"Such speed. Its Life Level is probably at least 7.3."

Chu Kuang, who was watching, murmured, gaining a sufficient understanding of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's strength.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex was known for its strength and defense, not its speed. Yet, it could still suppress Ye Shuanghen, who relied on agility, indicating its Life Level was at least half a level higher than Ye Shuanghen's.

In the face of such an absolute Life Level gap, Ye Shuanghen's speed had little effect.

If it weren't for the chip implanted in the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which compelled it to abandon eating Ye Shuanghen, Ye Shuanghen would have likely been devoured.

Even so, Ye Shuanghen was judged by the system to have lost his combat power.

"Is fighting beyond one's level truly impossible?"

Chu Kuang whispered to himself, a look of extreme solemnity appearing on his face.

The gap between Ye Shuanghen and the Tyrannosaurus Rex was only 0.5 levels, yet he was utterly crushed. This showed that the difference in Life Level created an absolute chasm, an almost insurmountable barrier.

"Roar—"

Just then, roars echoed through the valley. With the loss of combat power from the two strong individuals, Zhao Wu and Ye Shuanghen, the valley descended into a one-sided slaughter.

Some scattered and fled, escaping the battlefield with boundless fear.

Others chose to face their inner fears, relying on their Battle Armor to charge forward, attempting to inflict even the slightest damage on the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

But before the Tyrannosaurus Rex, everything was like moths flying into a flame.

With every sweep of its tail, swaths of students were sent flying. With every stomp of its foot, students were crushed into the mud.

A group of students with an average Life Level below six could not even inflict minor damage on its scales.

"There's no suspense anymore."

A large number of people fled in all directions, surging towards the valley like a tide.

At this moment, a figure clad in dark black Battle Armor, wielding a War Spear, moved against the current, walking alone into the valley.

Lin Shuyao, who was also retreating with the crowd, immediately noticed the tall, upright figure.

"It's him!"

Lin Shuyao was stunned. By the time she came to her senses, Chu Kuang had already brushed past her.

The crowd stopped after escaping the Tyrannosaurus Rex's hunting range. They all looked at Chu Kuang, who was walking alone towards the valley, their faces filled with surprise.

"What is he doing?"

"My brother, relying on his Battle Armor, wants to witness the Tyrannosaurus Rex's power."

Chu Linfeng scoffed upon seeing this. "Since he wants a glorious death, let's see how many moves he can withstand against the Tyrannosaurus Rex."

The crowd chattered amongst themselves before heading to the mountaintop to watch.

"How many moves do you think he can last?"

"I heard he defeated Xiong Haikuo. With that kind of strength, he might be able to last three moves."

"You're overestimating him. Even if his strength rivals Ye Shuanghen's, his speed is too slow. He won't be able to dodge the Tyrannosaurus Rex's attacks. He'll probably be killed in one blow after at most two moves."

As the crowd discussed, Chu Kuang had already stepped into the valley, his gaze calmly fixed on the Tyrannosaurus Rex before him.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex looked up at Chu Kuang, its eyes shining like lanterns. An immense killing aura surged towards him.

Chu Kuang, however, stepped forward calmly, a protective aura surrounding him that blocked the pressure.

With his Mighty Internal Force, a combination of internal and external cultivation, amplified by the Great Accomplishment of the Iron Bell Shield, even the Tyrannosaurus Rex's immense killing aura felt like a gentle breeze against his face.

At this moment, the Tyrannosaurus Rex's vertical pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a hint of apprehension for the first time.

It could feel Chu Kuang's vigorous life force and knew he was a formidable opponent.

However, this apprehension lasted only a moment. As the king of the dragon race, even as a cloned Bio-Beast, it possessed a transcendent demeanor that looked down upon all.

It slowly advanced, calmly walking before Chu Kuang, and then heavily stomped its foot on the ground.

"Dong—"

Instantly, the ground cracked violently, spreading towards Chu Kuang's feet. An invisible force erupted from within the earth, making Chu Kuang feel as if the world was shaking, like being on the crest of a wave.

And in that instant, the colossal Tyrannosaurus Rex accelerated its charge. Its massive body moved with lightning speed, carrying unparalleled power towards Chu Kuang, intending to catch him off guard while he was still finding his footing.

"Perfect timing."

As the giant dragon charged, Chu Kuang's eyes flashed with sharp intensity.

Instantly, a bell-like clang echoed, and a wave of Mighty Internal Force surged from Chu Kuang's body, smoothing the rippling ground beneath his feet.

Then, he stomped forward fiercely. The War Spear in his hand unleashed a meter-long blade of light, transforming into an energy blade that slashed towards the giant dragon.

However, the giant dragon neither dodged nor evaded. The attack struck its skull's scales, leaving only a faint white mark.

"Such a powerful physique."

After this probing strike, Chu Kuang frowned slightly and sidestepped.

Almost simultaneously, the charging Tyrannosaurus Rex brushed past him. Its colossal tail, like an iron pillar, swept through, bringing with it a power that seemed to suppress everything, bearing down on Chu Kuang.

Chu Kuang blocked with his spear, yet he was still blasted back over ten yards, his feet carving a deep gash in the ground.

"Even with the buffs, my strength is no match for it."

In a flash of lightning, Chu Kuang gauged the opponent's capabilities.

This Tyrannosaurus Rex possessed astonishing strength and physique, ranking high even among Life Level 7.3 creatures. Its only weakness was its slightly inferior speed and abysmal agility for its tier.

After all, its massive build inherently made it ill-suited for agility.

"Boom—"

Just as Chu Kuang was testing its strength, the Tyrannosaurus Rex charged again, its gaping maw lunging to bite at him.

Chu Kuang, however, had no intention of clashing head-on. Instead, he unleashed his Blood Battle in All Directions movement technique, evading the attack at an incredible angle. He circled around to the Tyrannosaurus Rex's flank and thrust the broad blade of his shuò with all his might towards its joint!

"Clang—"
