Chapter 18 Super Defense, Diamond Mammoth

The three Soul Kings stood there quietly, like three inaccessible mountains.

They didn't say a word, and didn't even look at Yan, Xie Yue and Hu Liena.

He just nodded slightly to Lin Zhendong.

This silent attitude seemed to reveal an unspoken contempt for the three young men.

Lin Zhendong also responded with an almost polite nod, then turned to face Yan and the other two, his eyes flashing with seriousness and expectation.

"are you ready?"

"Ready."

The three of them answered in unison, their voices revealing firmness and determination.

"So, who comes first?"

Lin Zhendong's eyes swept over the three of them.

Xie Yue took a step forward without hesitation.

"Teacher Lin, let me go first."

Lin Zhendong admired Xie Yue's courage and nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, then you will show your strength first."

Then, he turned to Yan and Hu Liena and said:

"You two should also get ready. Today is the first day of special training. You are allowed to watch from the sidelines and see how your teammates lose. However, starting tomorrow, you will accept challenges together."

There was a tone of contempt in Lin Zhendong's words towards the three of them, as if their failure was already a foregone conclusion.

Hu Liena couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and a feeling of unwillingness to admit defeat surged in her heart.

She hated to accept defeat, even when facing an opponent stronger than herself.

Unlike Hu Liena, Yan always remained calm and composed.

He knows that even if he fails, he can still learn valuable experience and prepare for the next challenge.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Xie Yue walked forward with his head held high. His opponent, the two-meter-tall, burly soul master, also came forward without showing any weakness.

The two stood facing each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xie Yue clenched his fists and introduced himself politely:
"Xie Yue, level 41 strong attack system battle soul sect, please give me some advice."

The person opposite also returned the greeting with a fist:
"Ye Hao, level 52 defense-type combat soul king, please give me some advice."

Hearing that his opponent was a defensive spirit master, Xie Yue's heart moved slightly.

He originally thought that he would face a powerful opponent of the attack or control type, but he didn't expect it to be a defense type soul master.

Compared to the offensive and control spirit masters, the auxiliary and defensive spirit masters seemed to be easier to deal with because their attack power was not that strong.

Even so, Xie Yue did not let down his guard.

Although the attack power of defensive soul masters is relatively weak, their defensive capabilities should not be underestimated, not to mention that the opponent's soul power has reached level 52, which is more than ten levels higher than his.

Upon learning that her brother's opponent was a defensive soul master, Hu Liena couldn't help but smile.

She knew very well that her brother Xie Yue's self-created soul skill "Full Moon" possessed powerful attack power, and perhaps it was really possible to break the defense of the fifty-second level defense soul king.

This is not only a test, but also an opportunity to prove myself.

She silently cheered for her brother in her heart, hoping that he could win the challenge.

The competition officially begins.

There was a gleam of sharpness in Xie Yue's eyes, and he quickly mobilized the soul power in his body and took the lead in releasing his Moon Blade Martial Soul.

Behind him, the moon blade was shining with cold light, as if a crescent moon was hanging in the air, sharp and mysterious.

Four soul rings with two yellow and two purple configurations surrounded him, showing his strength at the Soul Sect level. Facing Xie Yue's challenge, Ye Hao showed no weakness and immediately released his own martial soul and soul rings.

Yan and Hu Liena's eyes were focused on him, waiting to see what kind of martial spirit he would display.

Suddenly, a huge beast slowly emerged from behind Ye Hao.

It is as majestic as a mountain, giving people a feeling of indestructibility.

At the same time, five soul rings, two yellow, two purple and one black, surrounded Ye Hao's body, flashing dazzling light.

The black ten thousand year soul ring was surrounded by black light and exuded a domineering aura.

Seeing this scene, Hu Liena was completely stunned.

She had never thought that Ye Hao’s martial soul would be the diamond mammoth!
The Diamond Mammoth is a top-level martial spirit with extremely high defensive capabilities. Its characteristics are mainly reflected in its unparalleled strength and indestructible defense.

This kind of martial spirit is unique to the direct disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect. It is for this reason that the Elephant Armor Sect is known as the strongest defensive sect on the continent.

Ye Hao's five soul rings, two yellow, two purple and one black, are also the best soul ring configuration, which also demonstrates his talent and strength.

At this moment, Ye Hao was like an unshakable mountain, standing in front of Xie Yue, waiting for the upcoming challenge.

Xie Yue's eyes were solemn. He knew very well that the fifty-second level defensive war soul king opposite him had extremely strong defensive power.

Therefore, he chose to launch a tentative attack, hoping to find out his opponent's strengths.

Along with the sudden flash of the first soul ring on his body, Xie Yue suddenly activated his first soul skill - Moon Wheel Flying Blade, and several moon blade-shaped energy light waves shot towards Ye Hao at a rapid speed.

However, these attacks were like a drop in the ocean in front of the Diamond Mammoth's indestructible defense and did not cause any waves.

"It's really strong!"

Xie Yue was not discouraged, he had already anticipated this situation.

The Diamond Mammoth's strong defense is well-known in the soul master world.

He frowned slightly, quickly calculating his next strategy in his mind.

"Try to increase the attack power."

Immediately afterwards, Xie Yue used his third soul skill - Crescent Moon Blade.

This is an amplification skill that can instantly increase the attack power to 150% of the original. It is one of the most powerful attack methods he currently possesses.

However, even such a powerful attack only left a shallow mark on the skin of the Diamond Mammoth.

The diamond-hard body remained unmoved.

Hu Liena was terrified watching from the side.

Although she knew that the Diamond Mammoth had strong defenses, she was still shocked to see Xie Yue's attack being resolved so easily.

Yan remained calm and composed. He silently observed the situation on the field and analyzed every move and technique of Xie Yue and Ye Hao.

He even fantasized about how he would deal with such a strong defense if he were on the court.

At this moment, Xie Yue also deeply felt the horror of the diamond mammoth's defense.

He knew that his normal attacks posed no threat to this defensive war soul king.

So he began to adjust his strategy, thinking about how to use his speed and flexibility to find his opponent's flaws.

The competition is still going on.

Xie Yue continuously launched attacks, trying to test and attack the opponent from different angles and methods, hoping to find a flaw in it.

However, Ye Hao also always maintained a high level of vigilance and defensive posture, responding to all changes with the same attitude and not giving Xie Yue any chance at all.

This battle of spear and shield and the continuous attacks caused Xie Yue to consume a lot of physical strength.

Looking at the panting Xie Yue, Ye Hao suddenly said in a cold voice:
"Boy, are you out of strength? Don't think I'm only capable of defense. Get ready to take my attack!"
