The spectators had no interest at all, only anger.
There was no other reason.
It was because of this Rhino King of Strength.
He never engaged in proper duels.
He just stood there like a turtle and let his opponents hit him.
Relying on his defenses to win.
It could be said there was nothing worth watching.
Every time, his opponents exhausted themselves and surrendered.
This was simply not worth the ticket price.
Of course, many people had also placed their bets on the Rhino King of Strength.
Because although he was boring.
He had real skill.
The odds were low, but you were basically guaranteed to win.
Some people had even bet all three thousand of their Gold Soul Coins.
They sat there happily, waiting to collect their money.
"Hey, kid, why are you only a Soul Ancestor?"
The Rhino King of Strength looked at Dai Mubai before him and could not help asking.
His defenses were comparable to those of a Soul Emperor.
Ordinary Soul Kings could not break through them at all.
Not to mention that his opponent was merely a little Soul Ancestor.
"Come on, I'll let you hit me."
The Rhino King of Strength patted his chest and spoke with complete confidence.
He refused to believe that a mere Soul Ancestor could turn the tables on him.
"Oh? Then you'd better be careful."
Dai Mubai smiled faintly.
His Third Soul Skill, Shadow Walker's Claw, had now reached ten thousand years.
This was a Soul Ring that even ordinary Soul Kings might not possess.
Yet when he raised his Soul Ring, it was only a deep violet.
This was the power of Hextech.
Ever since his Soul Ring evolved, it had become even more responsive to his control.
After a month of training.
Dai Mubai could now conceal the traces of his Soul Rings or alter their color and aura when casting Soul Skills.
This included the matter of him and Zhu Zhuqing using Martial Soul Fusion to cultivate.
Logically, this should have been difficult, yet after merely trying it, they had succeeded with ease.
All of this had happened after he chose the Hextech augment "Level Up!"
Perhaps his Soul Power had already evolved at that time.
That was why he could cultivate like this.
"Buzz!"
The violet Soul Ring trembled violently, as if it could no longer wait.
Dai Mubai wanted to see whether his Soul Skill could contend with this Soul King, whose defenses were exceptionally strong.
"Shadow Walker's Claw!"
As the Third Soul Ring activated.
Dai Mubai flashed instantly, appearing before the Rhino King of Strength.
At the same time, a heavy blow slammed viciously into the Rhino King of Strength.
Although Shadow Walker's Claw was supposed to flash him behind an enemy.
After mastering it proficiently, Dai Mubai could freely control its direction.
The instant the strike landed, the Rhino King of Strength's expression changed rapidly.
From initial confidence to utter shock.
It took less than a second.
Dai Mubai's heavy strike made him feel astonishing power and pain.
The Soul Powers of both sides collided in the air.
A dull boom erupted.
The Rhino King of Strength's defenses were shattered outright.
His entire body was sent staggering backward.
His expression shifted again and again.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
After barely steadying himself, the Rhino King of Strength spat out a mouthful of blood.
His face looked even worse.
Countless spectators in the stands were stunned by the scene.
"I never thought the Rhino King of Strength would have a day like this. Is he going to lose?"
"Damn! This bastard usually loves relying on his defenses to win. Why is he so pathetic now?"
"If he loses, what happens to my Gold Soul Coins? Damn it! Damn it!"
"This is a Soul Ancestor? The hell kind of Soul Ancestor is this?"
"Could the Rhino King of Strength's title as the strongest defense be broken today?"
"Impossible, right... But no matter what, today's ticket was definitely worth it."
The spectators below erupted into discussion.
"Hmph, I just wasn't prepared earlier. Again!"
The Rhino King of Strength let out an angry roar.
All of his Soul Skills activated.
His defenses were raised directly to the maximum.
He stared solemnly at the young man before him.
"So strong?"
Dai Mubai nodded in slight amazement.
His Shadow Walker's Claw dealt extremely high damage.
Especially since this skill could critically strike.
Even a Soul Emperor might not possess explosive damage like his.
After taking such an explosive blow, his opponent could actually continue fighting.
It had to be said that his defenses were indeed formidable.
Even ordinary Soul Emperors might not be able to defeat this Rhino King of Strength.
Looking at the thick defenses before him, Dai Mubai knew that he probably could not defeat his opponent today with Shadow Walker's Claw alone.
After being out for a month, he had finally encountered an opponent he could not instantly kill.
A faint anticipation arose in his heart.
I hope you can hold on for a few more hits.
"Whew..."
Dai Mubai let out a long breath.
Two violet Soul Rings appeared behind him at the same time.
His First Soul Ring, Trinity Force, had now reached 5,928 years.
Combined with the Shadow Walker's Claw that was over ten thousand years old.
"Could this little Soul Ancestor really break the Rhino King of Strength's turtle shell?"
"Just two Thousand-Year Soul Rings? How could that be possible?"
"It really might be possible. That burst just now directly shattered the Rhino King of Strength's defenses."
"Not necessarily. Maybe that strike was already his strongest attack?"
The spectators below were all shocked by the sight.
"No matter what, he's only a Soul Ancestor."
The Rhino King of Strength watched him warily, with five layers of defense stacked over his body.
Earlier, he had only used his Fifth Soul Ring. As a member of a Single-Attribute Clan, all of his Soul Rings could increase his defense.
The defense granted by all five Soul Rings together far surpassed that of the Fifth Soul Ring alone.
I refuse to believe you can break through it!
"Trinity Force."
Dai Mubai's First Soul Ring lit up behind him.
With the boost from Trinity Force.
Dai Mubai's overall attributes rose to 240% of their original level.
The Rhino King of Strength also braced himself in full readiness.
Under normal circumstances, no one would be this stubborn in a spirit battle. They would use probing, attrition, kiting, and whatever other tactics were useful.
But today was different.
The Rhino King of Strength looked utterly serious.
His Martial Soul was the Plated Earth Rhino, the continent's strongest defensive Martial Soul.
He was also the son of the Defense Clan's Clan Leader!
If a Soul Ancestor broke through his defenses, would that not disgrace his family?
This was a battle for his honor!
Not only was the Rhino King of Strength fully prepared and going all out.
Dai Mubai stood with one hand in his pocket, while his other hand was already prepared to unleash Shadow Walker's Claw.
He enjoyed this sort of violent clash, crushing his opponent with an unstoppable Charge Forward.
The sheer thrill of watching them collapse at the first touch.
Shattered defensive Soul Skills were like the most wonderful sound in the world.
"Hey!" Dai Mubai called out to the Rhino King of Strength, then vanished the next second.
