--- Chapter 240 ---
Slifer is a red serpentine, black-bellied dragon with spikes running down its body. Its wings are bat-like in form, with two thumb claws. Slifer's head has two mouths; the bottom jaw of the smaller top set is part of the top jaw of the 'larger' set. The last tooth on each cheek is larger than the others.
Slifer's head is 'naturally' crested with four spikes protruding horizontally and two larger ones from the back of the head curving vertically; the sapphire common to the Egyptian Gods is 'majestically' nestled at the front of the crest.
Its tail crest is 'similarly' shaped but with a single flattened spike at the tip rather than two spikes. Slifer has short limbs with three-toed feet.
Crimson aura blasted out from its massive body, causing the Mirror Dimension to tremble violently.
Mu En stood on the edge of the field, staring at the Slifer with an astonished look.
Just from standing before this dragon alone, Mu En could feel his Light Holy Dragon's martial soul and bloodline felt threatened. How could such a powerful beast exist in this world?
Mu En unconsciously activated his bloodline essence and formed an image of Light Holy Dragon behind him, making the two dragons roar at each other to show their dominance!
ROAR! ROAR!
"Shit!" Yan Shaozhe crossed his arms and created a protective barrier so Ma Xiaotao and Bei Bei wouldn't get affected by the two creatures' presence.
Yan Shaozhe possessed Bright Phoenix's Martial Soul but shivered like no tomorrow when facing 'Slifer, the Sky Dragon' and Mu En's Light Holy Dragon.
Their presence tore Bright Phoenix's natural protection as if telling him to kneel. Ma Xiaotao and Bei Bei also have powerful Martial Souls, but they haven't cultivated them to the peak, so they are gasping like injured dogs on the floor with a pale complexion.
Crack!
The Mirror Dimension shattered and recovered simultaneously, which made Huo Yuhao frown slightly.
"This is not good." He said while staring at Mu En's Light Holy Dragon. It was stronger than he expected but not strong enough to grasp divinity because the possessor was still a Demi-God in body and soul.
He clasped his hand and wrote some runes in the air, expanding the Mirror Dimension to the whole Sea God Lake.
As the Mirror Dimension stabilized, Mu En raised his brow and chuckled heartily, "Haha, It seems you don't expect the fight will cause something like this."
Huo Yuhao smiled and returned, "The same goes for you, right? Elder Mu?"
Mu En nodded and stared at the Slifer again, giving it a solemn look because this dragon wasn't a simple manifestation of a spirit beast.
It looks and feels divine, making Mu En believe the Slifer was summoned in the flesh by Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul.
'I know why the Dragon Nest put so much importance on Huo Yuhao now because he's someone every faction wanted.'
'His attainment at such a young age showed how unbelievably talented he was.'
'But what's this unsettling feeling?'
Since Huo Yuhao stepped into the Shrek Academy, Mu En always felt this blue-haired youth was 'literally' shrouded by mystery. Even his Light Holy Dragon felt pressured by something inside him.
Although Huo Yuhao has shown Mu En countless mind-boggling abilities in the last few minutes, why did he feel there is more to it?
Huo Yuhao hadn't gone all out flashed in Mu En's mind, but he felt it was ridiculous. Summoning this divine-like dragon should have exceeded his immature cultivation, pushing him to the limit.
Still, Mu En's suspicion lingers in his heart.
Of course, Mu En's intuition is correct.
Ancestral Eyes of Heavenly Dao is amongst the newest powers that Huo Yuhao obtained, and he's not very proficient in them. There are countless ways for Huo Yuhao to defeat Mu En, but he doesn't use those abilities because it is unfair.
For example, Huo Yuhao could easily trample Mu En with Eternal Shadow, but where is the fun in doing so?
Huo Yuhao likes to temper himself. Even if it's just a small progress on his now piles of hard work and luck, he'd prefer to learn more and more about the world.
After learning existences like the Cursed God and his wives exist, Huo Yuhao knows there are endless possibilities outside there. Beyond the veil of this world, terrifying forces are eyeing him like a piece of juicy steak.
Huo Yuhao must learn and adapt to defeat them, ensuring his family and people's safety. That's why his main body entered a solitary training to comprehend the Art of Ten Thousand Waves and Heavenly Daos of the Universe.
"Let's start." Huo Yuhao's Ancestral Eyes of Heavenly Dao flashed with a keen light.
Mu En responded with a smile and charged forward. His first spirit ring, only hundreds of years old, lit up.
"Golden Sky Breaker!"
"Rumbling!"
Light Holy Dragon and Slifer clashed in the air.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
The Sea God Island burst open, allowing the two dragons to ascend and fight more violently.
Huo Yuhao and Mu En exchanged blows more fiercely as their hands and legs created rippling air and explosion in the sky.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Light Holy Dragon's Body." Mu En's second spirit ring lit up this time.
Huo Yuhao responded with a whistle and used his Class Systems, which he hadn't used for a long time. He still used them 'sparingly' as each fighting style 'uniquely' was integrated into his arsenal.
[You have equipped 'Dragonborn Crusader' Class]
[No Class's Weapons detected]
[You have entered 'Battle Monk' Mode]
SWOOSH!
Mu En's upper body is 'thoroughly' covered by white-golden dragon scales, including his neck and chin, as he punches his right arm toward Huo Yuhao's chest.
Huo Yuhao let it happen and punched Mu En's chest in exchange.
BAM! BAM!
They stared at each other, and Mu En let out a surprised groan.
"This-!"
BOOM!
Mu En was launched to the Sea God Lake and felt his chest churning in soreness.
[You have used 'Judgement Strike' with 'Mace-like Hand' form]
[You have dealt a 'small' damage toward the enemy]
'What happened?' Huo Yuhao unclenched his hand and looked down with an astonished look. 'Since when did my Dragonborn Crusader Class become this strong?'
'Wait, it's not the class that becomes stronger.'
'My stats exceeded my former self, years of accumulation in the Everlith Universe and Draconic Deus Universe. Even if I'm just a clone.'
Huo Yuhao's lips unknowingly curled into a smile because he had a bold idea regarding his classes. Could he form God's Seat with them?
Theoretically, he could. However, Huo Yuhao needs to understand each class to a fundamental level first and even upgrade them to a divine level.
"When you see something from a different perspective, a new path somehow opens..." Huo Yuhao sighed in helplessness.
Mu En soared again and summoned his third spirit ring, which is purple-colored. He used his third spirit skill and caused a heaven-shaking shockwave that washed the Sea God Island.
"Light Holy Shockwave."
Intense lightning and holy elements invaded the atmosphere, frying everything in its path.
Huo Yuhao opened his palms and used Dragonborn Crusder's Skill to nullify the shockwave.
[You have used 'Shield Bash' with 'Shield-like Hand' Technique]
[You have nullified Lightning and Holy Element with your Sub-Races' Innate Ability]
Huo Yuhao kicked the ground and appeared before Mu En's eyes.
Mu En raised his elbow and blocked the incoming fist, rotating in the air and kicking Huo Yuhao in retaliation.
BAM!
Huo Yuhao was 'actually' sent flying a few meters away, and Mu En chased after him.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Several water pillars soared to the sky because of them.
"DRAGON BLAST!"
"LIGHT HOLY BARRIER!"
Slifer opened its upper mouth and sent a menacing laser beam at Mu En.
Light Holy Dragon roared and erected a holy barrier for Mu En.
BOOM! CRACK!
Mu En blew off steam and looked at Huo Yuhao, who landed on Slifer's head.
"Haha, he forced me to use four spirit skills." Mu En laughed in amusement.
This fight went in a completely different direction.
"Should we end this with one move? The Mirror Dimension won't last long." Huo Yuhao suddenly proposed.
Mu En was stunned but then nodded his head in agreement. The spar has gone for too long.
The heaven and earth trembled upon the might they released.
Mu En called the Light Holy Dragon's image and fused it with himself, summoning his spirit rings. They are two yellows, one purple, three black, and three reds.
Mu En actually has three spirit rings that are over 100,000 hundred years old! No wonder people called him the Dragon God Douluo because his spirit ring configuration exceeded Douluo Continent's standard.
Huo Yuhao grinned at this sight and released his spirit ring, causing Mu En's expression to freeze. Six crimson brilliance covered the sky, shining down the Sea God Lake with pure immensity.
'He's not a young dragon. He's a full-blown monstrous dragon!' Mu En thought with a grin on his middle-aged face.
"HAHAHA~!" A joyful laughter escaped Mu En's mouth.
After years of sickness, this is the first time Mu En enjoyed a fight again!
Huo Yuhao also responded with laughter as he descended with Slifer, the Sky Dragon.
[Ding! You have equipped 'Dark Avenger' Class]
He called Failure(the first weapon he obtained) from the Azure Emperor's fault and coated it with Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki.
Wielding the greatsword, Huo Yuhao faced Mu En fearlessly. So what if he was a clone? He's still the strongest!
"DRAGON EMPEROR REALM QUAKE!" Mu En is 'suddenly' covered with golden dragon armor as he pounces forward with a dragon claw.
The Light Holy Dragon's image merged with him, creating a fifteen-foot halo behind him.
Huo Yuhao swung the greatsword in his hand, which was 'ultimately' accompanied by Slifer's roar.
[Ding! You have executed Dark Avenger's Nightmare Skill: Dark Crash!]
Dark Avenger's Aura exploded and clashed with Light Holy Aura.
The sky and earth inverted.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
A blinding light swept everything within one hundred miles.
The Mirror Dimension finally crumbled because it couldn't handle the damage anymore, revealing Huo Yuhao and Mu En, who stood on the field motionlessly.
Huo Yuhao opened his mouth and sighed, "Jeez, what a shame. It's a tie."
"Don't you think so, Elder Mu?"
Mu En blinked at Huo Yuhao and finally nodded, "Yeah. A shame indeed."
They bowed at each other after exchanging some pleasantries, leaving the audience confused. Just a moment ago, they felt like the world was about to end.
"Senior Ma, let's have dinner! I'm starving!" Huo Yuhao waved his hand at Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao nodded dumbly, following Huo Yuhao out of the Sea God Pavilion.
Yan Shaozhe and Bei Bei went down, checking Mu En.
COUGH!
"Blergh!" Mu En suddenly spurted blood and looked very pale.
"Pavilion Master!"
"Elder!"
Mu En wiped his blood and smiled, "Haha, it's okay."
"It's just some light injuries."
"Aih, that little monster wants to give me some faces in front of you all, but it seems I've wasted it." That last attack frightened Mu En.
Yan Shaozhe looked very solemn, "Is he that powerful?"
"Junior Yuhao..." Even Bei Bei felt puzzled by this result.
Mu En looked at the blood on his hand and said, "Dragon Nest has raised a True Dragon. The strongest monster this world ever faced."
"All this time, Huo Yuhao hides his true power. No wonder he looks down on Shrek Academy."
"And I felt he hid more than this."
"Shaozhe, Bei, don't tell anyone about this spar."
"Understood!" Yan Shaozhe and Bei Bei gave Mu En an affirmative look.
Mu En waved his hand, "Leave. I'll check the area in case there was damage first."
Yan Shaozhe looked at Mu En worriedly before sighing and walking away with Bei Bei.
As they left the field, Mu En spewed a mouthful of blood more and trembled on the ground. He kneeled with one leg and felt a shallow cut on his chest and neck, trickling with crimson aura.
"Haha, he could have killed me there..." Mu En chuckled grimly.
"What an interesting fellow."
"He will be the storm that caused either glory or chaos on the Douluo Continent. I hope it's the former. I don't want to be his opponent…" Mu En's last remarks were 'inherently' filled with indescribable fear.
