Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth! Yu Tianheng is Convinced!

After the brief shock, Yu Tianheng suppressed the terror in his heart, and the fighting spirit in his eyes blazed even more fiercely.

"Yu Tianheng, three-ring assault-type Soul Elder! Please instruct me!"

A brilliant blue light burst from Yu Tianheng's brow. Blue-violet lightning coiled around his body like little snakes, while his right arm suddenly swelled, becoming covered in dense blue-violet scales. His five fingers transformed into savage dragon claws, with two yellow and one purple soul rings revolving above them.

"Shi Mo, three-ring defense-type Soul Elder! Please instruct me!"

"Shi Mo, three-ring defense-type Soul Elder! Please instruct me!"

Shi Mo and Shi Mo instantly possessed their martial souls, releasing their Black Tortoise martial souls. Dark yellow Soul Power formed enormous turtle shells behind them.

Two yellow and one purple soul rings circled their bodies!

"Lu Xiao! Three-ring assault-type Soul Elder!"

The instant his words fell, all four moved at once.

Yu Tianheng's third soul ring abruptly lit up. "Third Soul Skill! Thunderous Fury!"

Violent lightning power exploded from within Yu Tianheng's body, and the fine blue-violet lightning that had wound around him instantly expanded!

Immediately after, his first soul ring lit up. "First Soul Skill! Thunder Dragon Claw!"

Lightning gathered upon Yu Tianheng's dragon claw, which he slammed forward. Solidified lightning condensed into a gigantic dragon claw and tore through the air.

The air warped violently in its path, erupting with hair-raising crackles!

Lu Xiao's expression did not change. His first soul ring faintly lit up, and with a sweep of his right hand, a streak of purple-black lightning shot out!

The blue-violet lightning and purple-black electric light collided violently in midair!

The next second, the Thunder Dragon Claw began collapsing layer by layer from its fingertips. Violent blue-violet lightning scattered in every direction before shattering apart in an instant, turning into countless scattered sparks that vanished into the air.

"How is that possible?!" Yu Tianheng's face was full of disbelief!

At that very moment, Lu Xiao had already appeared before him.

The lightning around Yu Tianheng struck Lu Xiao, yet it could not shake even the slightest bit of Bronze's radiant glow!

Lu Xiao's expression was indifferent. Without any flashy technique, he naturally clenched his right fist and threw an utterly ordinary straight punch.

The force of the punch crushed the air, producing a deep explosive boom!

The Shi Mo brothers' expressions changed drastically.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two simultaneously mobilized all their Soul Power. Their thousand-year soul rings shone brilliantly at the same time.

"Black Tortoise! Armor Guard!"

The brothers shouted low in unison and fiercely pushed out the massive fused Black Tortoise shell formed behind them.

Two incomparably thick dark-yellow turtle shells hung in the air, blocking the space between Yu Tianheng and Lu Xiao!

A steady, heavy earthy-yellow glow shimmered across the shells' surfaces.

A muffled boom erupted as Lu Xiao's fist struck the center of the turtle shells with perfect accuracy.

With a crisp crack!

Several fine cracks instantly spread across the sturdy shells.

The enormous turtle shells did not hold for even half a second before flying straight backward sideways!

The Shi Mo brothers staggered and retreated several steps in succession. Their martial souls were injured, their blood and qi churned, and they nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Thunderous Myriad Claws!"

Yu Tianheng's second soul ring lit up. The lightning around him surged explosively amid violent detonations.

Countless snake-like bolts instantly expanded, transforming into dense lightning arrows that shot toward Lu Xiao!

Lu Xiao smiled faintly. The dim Wind of Annihilation surged howling from every part of his body, its fine wind blades as thin as threads, layer upon layer winding around him.

The Wind of Annihilation roiled and tore, shredding the incoming lightning arrows layer by layer and dissolving them into nothingness.

At the sight of this, a profound sense of powerlessness rose within Yu Tianheng and the other two.

Lu Xiao fighting them was no different from an old man toying with children.

Yu Tianheng made his decision at once and shouted deeply, "Surround him from three sides! Control the field together!"

The Shi Mo brothers exchanged a glance and instantly reached an understanding, circling around from the left and right.

Yu Tianheng pressed forward head-on. Blue-violet lightning exploded across the sky, and the electric glow around his savage dragon claws surged as he locked onto Lu Xiao from the front!

Facing the three-man encirclement, Lu Xiao remained calm, his eyes utterly without ripples!

"Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth!"

Lu Xiao shouted, and in the next moment, dazzling golden light burst forth from within him!

A domineering, supreme dragon's might slowly spread throughout the field.

Lu Xiao's blood and qi churned like a dragon. He raised his right leg high, then stomped heavily onto the bluestone ground of the small courtyard!

Boom—!!

The heavy stomp shook the entire field, and web-like golden cracks burst across the ground from beneath his foot.

Eight massive, ferocious golden dragon-shaped currents burst from the ground, spiraling along the earth and sweeping outward in every direction, engulfing the entire field.

The dragons' roars were deafening!

The three had nowhere to evade. The only place Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth could not reach was directly above Lu Xiao's head.

The tyrannical dragon-shaped currents tore through the Soul Power barrier formed by the three-way encirclement and slammed into Shi Mo, Shi Mo, and Yu Tianheng.

Shi Mo and Shi Mo hurriedly activated their Black Tortoise martial souls, closing their turtle shells and defending with all their strength. The heavy shells collided with the golden dragon force and immediately shook violently. Their blood and energy churned as they were forced back again and again!

Yu Tianheng's reaction to the dragon's might was far more severe than theirs.

Faced with the Golden Dragon bloodline, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul within him instinctively felt the submission and fear of an inferior being before a superior one.

No matter how Yu Tianheng urged his Soul Power to maintain his possession, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul resisted operating.

Screech—

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul, which had just been erupting at full force, was forcibly released from Martial Soul Possession!

The golden dragon current crashed directly into his body!

Several breaths later, the dragon roars gradually faded, and the dragon's might dispersed.

At the center of the field, Lu Xiao's robes were not even the slightest bit disheveled. His expression was indifferent as he looked down at the three people not far away.

Yu Tianheng braced himself with one arm and tried several times to rise, but his legs were weak and powerless. He could only sit limply amid the shattered stones.

The Shi Mo brothers sat collapsed side by side against the wall, their faces pale and their breathing heavy.

The entire audience erupted in uproar.

The strongest member of Heaven Dou Royal Academy in their hearts had lost!

And he had lost in a three-on-one battle!

Everyone's gazes toward Lu Xiao shifted completely from their earlier doubt and disdain to awe and shock.

Shi Mo trudged forward with heavy steps alongside Shi Mo, stopping before Yu Tianheng, who was slumped on the ground. One stood on each side, and they bent down together, firmly supporting Yu Tianheng by the arms.

"Tianheng, get up."

Shi Mo spoke in a deep voice. There was not a trace of unwillingness in his tone, only calm acceptance. "We lost."

With the brothers' support, Yu Tianheng gritted his teeth and straightened himself.

He raised his eyes, his gaze crossing the open ground to stare directly at Lu Xiao in the center of the field.

After a moment of silence, Yu Tianheng took a deep breath, straightened his back, and slightly lowered his head toward Lu Xiao, his manner sincere.

"I, Yu Tianheng, accept this defeat completely."

There were no excuses, no luck involved.

Compared to someone else who also possessed the bloodline of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, they were simply worlds apart!

As his words fell, Shi Mo and Shi Mo beside him nodded as well, their expressions solemn.

"My brother and I are convinced as well."

Lu Xiao nodded lightly at the three of them. "You let me win."

Yu Tianheng raised his head. The fighting spirit in his eyes had not completely faded. "I will remember today's defeat. One day, I will fight you fairly."

Lu Xiao replied calmly, "Any time."

The three left in silence. Yet not long after they exited the small courtyard, Yu Tianheng's face turned deathly pale. His body went limp, and he collapsed unconscious onto the ground.

"Not good! Go find Ye Lingling!"

The brothers did not dare delay. Carrying the unconscious Yu Tianheng, they hurried toward the academy's treatment area.
