"Not with me."

Looking at the shocked expressions of the group, Lu Li immediately shook his head with a smile, "It's with him."

"Come, Xiao Ba."

The moment his voice fell, a black soul ring rose from Lu Li's body, and a massive black shadow shimmering with golden light emerged beside him, eventually lowering its stature to four meters—it was a Tyrannosaurus with an imposing aura.

"Roar!"

The Tyrannosaurus Xiao Ba let out an excited cry, wagging its tail happily as it descended beside Lu Li, then affectionately prostrated itself on the ground, as if waiting for Lu Li's touch.

"This is...?"

Seeing the several-meter-tall Tyrannosaurus beside Lu Li, everyone was stunned, their faces filled with bewilderment.

Could this be the arrival of the ultimate summon?

But this contrast is a bit too cute!

"This is my first soul spirit, the Ten Thousand Year Tyrannosaurus Xiao Ba, with a cultivation age of seventy-two thousand years."

Lu Li smiled slightly and reached out to stroke Xiao Ba's head. This was the hundred-year soul spirit Tyrannosaurus he had absorbed when he was six years old; it was an Unyielding Soul Spirit.

That's right, an Unyielding Soul Spirit.

Countless geniuses had failed to gain its recognition, yet the moment his own martial soul appeared, it had already prostrated itself to acknowledge him as its master—a remarkably respectful Tyrannosaurus.

By the time he broke through to become a Title Douluo, its cultivation had already exceeded sixty thousand years. Previously, with the 20% age bonus from the system, it had increased to a seventy-two-thousand-year soul spirit, and it was...

Very close to one hundred thousand years.

"How..."

"How many years!"

Hearing this, Tang Wulin and the others couldn't help but tighten their expressions, and even Gu Yue couldn't help but be stunned.

A first soul spirit of over seventy thousand years.

She knew how top-tier the talent of the person before her was in the human world, but at less than twenty years old, to be a Title Douluo with a first soul spirit nearly reaching one hundred thousand years...

Is this really a human?

She often calculated roughly that if she were to cultivate with the potential she had displayed so far, she feared she wouldn't be able to keep up with his cultivation speed. In other words, he seemed even less like a human than she was.

"As expected of Big Brother Lu Li."

"You're the only one who can make me feel even a little bit interested."

Gu Yue thought silently to herself.

Wanting only to make him submit to her, she had no idea that her gaze, full of undivided attention, had actually long since exceeded the category of being "a little" interested.

"Teacher Lu Li, are we..."

"Fighting a seventy-thousand-year soul beast?"

Finally, Wang Jinxi in the crowd spoke subconsciously; this was the first time he had taken the initiative to speak, despite his usual taciturn nature.

As the possessor of a dragon-attribute martial soul, he had heard much about the Tyrannosaurus soul spirit. It was an absolutely proud soul spirit, known as an Unyielding Soul Spirit.

To have it acknowledge a master when he was only at the first ring...

That could only be Teacher Lu Li.

But asking them to fight a seventy-thousand-year soul spirit was no less difficult than asking them to challenge Wu Changkong at his peak, and not just one of him.

At least ten of them.

A soul spirit of this level was something one could only truly look up to.

"..."

The others beside them nodded one after another. Among them, Tang San, who was secretly observing from within Tang Wulin's body, was also clicking his tongue in wonder.

A seventy-thousand-year first soul spirit.

Although it was nothing compared to his own son-in-law, the other party was undoubtedly a genuine genius. This meant that his first soul skill could at least exert the effect of a ten-thousand-year skill.

"Wulin's sparring partner at nine years old was a ten-thousand-year Tyrannosaurus; that's really nice. My sparring partner back then seemed to be..."

Tang San's thoughts began to drift back to the past, recalling the Little Purple Pig that would "oink oink" incessantly and could only attack three times each time, and he fell into deep thought.

Gangzi.

You've let me fall behind others again.

"..."

"Combat is the best teacher. Teacher Wu must have said this during your actual combat training before, and this applies not only to human soul masters, but soul spirits are naturally a part of it as well."

"A ten-thousand-year soul spirit is still far from a level you can touch, but this is already my weakest soul spirit."

Watching the expressions of everyone who could be described as trembling, Lu Li shook his head with a smile and said slowly.

It was a certainty that the little ones would go to the Spirit Ascension Platform, and before that, a practical class on group battles against soul beasts was clearly a necessary course.

"After this, he will suppress his cultivation to the thousand-year level and generate a soul power shield that can be broken. All you need to do is hold out for as long as possible."

"Or even break it."

Lu Li said this. As for what the little guy was thinking, asking them to fight a Ten Thousand Year Tyrannosaurus was no less difficult than asking a two-ring Tang San to take Yu Xiaogang and solo the Forest King Titan Giant Ape.

In reality, a thousand-year-level Xiao Ba was already more than enough to give the group a hard time.

"Roar."

Under Lu Li's command, the Tyrannosaurus Xiao Ba, which had long since gained sentience, naturally understood what was meant. It fixed its gaze on the group led by Tang Wulin, its eyes filled with a strange light.

"Teacher Lu Li still has too much confidence in us."

"Is a thousand-year-level really that easy..."

Wei Xiaofeng smacked his lips and said.

Such a mighty and domineering Tyrannosaurus that looked invincible, yet Teacher Lu Li named it Xiao Ba? This was clearly a Tyrant!

"Prepare to take the stage."

Lu Li directed the Tyrannosaurus to the combat platform first, then glanced at the group and smiled.

"Yes, Teacher Lu Li!"

"..."

A moment later, looking at the Tyrannosaurus not far away, the members of Zero Class began their first team battle coordination!

"First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Has Spirit!"

"Eat my Blue Silver Entanglement!"

The Blue Silver Grass in Tang Wulin's hands had already materialized in an instant, and the Blue Silver vines, as thick as an arm, charged straight toward the Tyrannosaurus.

Testing!

As one of the few true control-type Soul Masters among them, his initial control attempts often provided a great deal of information...

"Snap..."

The next moment, with just a wave of Xiao Ba's claw, the Blue Silver vines were reduced to fragments all over the floor. It even looked at Tang Wulin speechlessly, as if to say--

You're so weak, buddy.

"Hmm, it really doesn't work."

Tang Wulin retracted his martial soul thoughtfully, then pulled out a Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer. Since Blue Silver Grass wouldn't work, it seemed he could only use this!

"Xie Xie, come on, let's go too."

"First Soul Skill, Green Shadow Strike!"

Wei Xiaofeng was already ready to go. With his first soul skill initiated, his body split into multiple phantoms, instantly rushing toward the target.

"Don't order me around."

Xie Xie snorted coldly, but the Light Dragon Dagger in his hand didn't show the slightest hesitation, following closely in Wei Xiaofeng's footsteps.

"Bang--"

The moment the two of them touched the Tyrannosaurus during their charge, not to mention how much damage they dealt, but judging by the fact that it remained completely unscathed, it was no different from tickling it.

"Damn it, what a wall of iron and arms!"

Wei Xiaofeng's expression stiffened. For a soul spirit of such high quality as the Tyrannosaurus, having both offense and defense was basic; what the hell was he supposed to fight with!

"Second Soul Skill, Green Shadow Devour!"

The second soul ring at his feet lit up. The phantoms behind him gradually merged, and his entire body transformed into a mutated venomous snake, heading straight for the head of the Tyrannosaurus.

But the result was...

While being swatted away by a tail, even the snake fangs in Wei Xiaofeng's mouth were shattered.

"This! Is! A! Person!"

"..."

Watching the cursing Wei Xiaofeng, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi didn't speak, but instead acted in unison with tacit understanding!

"First Soul Skill, Dark Sky Curtain!"

"First Soul Skill, Bone Dragon Claw!"

Zhang Yangzi's control soul skill, Dark Sky Curtain!

The moment the dark mist shrouded the area, the Tyrannosaurus felt the scene before its eyes go black instantly; it had actually achieved a genuine control effect!

"There's a chance."

Wang Jinxi's eyes lit up. He increased his speed, concentrating more soul power energy from within his body into the dragon claw manifested on his right hand, charging forward with unstoppable momentum, and then...

He flew.

The opponent simply raised its hand and swiped. The moment the sharp claws made contact, the sudden, powerful rebounding force made him, a dragon-type Soul Master who relied on power-attack methods, experience for the first time what it meant to feel deeply powerless.

The Tyrannosaurus hadn't even done anything; it only needed to exert a slight effort to break their limits!

"..."

Tang Wulin was also sent flying, following closely behind.

He gripped his Heavy Silver Hammer and swung with all his might, thinking he could rely on his innate immense strength to compete with his opponent, but in reality...

It didn't achieve the desired effect at all.

How can he be this strong...

Are we sure his power is suppressed to the thousand-year level?

Zhang Yangzi couldn't help but question in his heart. Wang Jinxi's Bone Dragon Claw could be said to be invincible; at the very least, he had few rivals among Soul Grand Masters. The Tyrannosaurus Rex's soul power shield...

It was simply too hard to break!

"You guys can head down."

"Don't get caught in the blast of my soul skill."

Just then, a light, ethereal female voice rang out.

In a spot where no one was paying attention, Gu Yue, who had been waiting for a long time, had silently prepared her ultimate move:

Ice! Fire! Wind!

From the moment the others started to struggle, she had already been channeling her Multiple Element Control, and by now, it had formed a substantial fusion.

Blue, red, and green, carrying different energy auras, three distinct elemental attributes rippled through the air, flashing with different might, and finally converged into a tornado several meters high, whistling past!

Wherever the tornado passed, it carried sharp winds. Although it wasn't massive, it looked truly magical in the eyes of the onlookers.

"Elemental fusion! Three-element fusion!"

"Is this really a Soul Grand Master...?"

Wei Xiaofeng's eyes widened like copper bells; this was not something a Soul Grand Master could withstand! He instinctively unleashed Green Shadow Strike, grabbed Xie Xie and Tang Wulin beside him, and jumped off the stage.

Zhang Yangzi also cast a wary glance, spread his wings, and flew high into the air with Wang Jinxi.

On the battle stage, only the Tyrannosaurus Rex Xiao Ba remained!

"Roar--"

Facing Gu Yue's attack, a hint of interest appeared on Xiao Ba's face for the first time. Without the slightest hesitation, he swung his claws and charged forward:

Heehee, it's a tornado!

Let me touch it!

"Boom--"

Without any surprise, under Xiao Ba's gentle strike, even the powerful elemental tornado shattered under the swipe of his dragon claws.

"Phew, so that doesn't work either..."

Wei Xiaofeng sighed with emotion. This was the overwhelming dominance of a Tyrannosaurus Rex; he had truly witnessed it now...

"Wait!"

"The Tyrannosaurus Rex's shield, it's broken!"

At this moment, Tang Wulin suddenly spoke up.

It was only after his notification that everyone was surprised to discover that the faint layer of soul power shielding on the outermost surface of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's body had actually shattered.

"So, the Tyrannosaurus Rex is not invincible after all."

Xie Xie muttered to himself, but then again, to unleash that kind of power...

It seemed even harder, didn't it!?

He was certainly not the only one with that thought. At this moment, Tang Wulin, Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, and Wei Xiaofeng all looked toward Gu Yue in shock. Was this person...

Really human?

"..."

Xie Xie: Guys, do you think Gu Yue is even human?
