Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, have a Beast Taming Space

Chapter 68 Crush
An indescribable, extreme chill suddenly erupted from the center of them!

The green halo spread instantly like ripples on water, and wherever it passed, the air crackled and froze, and the ground was instantly covered with a thick layer of solid ice.

The temperature in the entire assessment area plummeted to a terrifying level in an instant, as if it had transformed into the core ice field of the far north!
Those core disciples who were still observing or preparing to launch an attack didn't even have time to react. They felt an irresistible chill sweep over their entire bodies, their soul power suddenly stagnated, and thick layers of ice quickly formed on their bodies. In the blink of an eye, they were frozen into ice sculptures of various shapes!

Everyone in the entire arena, except for the eight members of Huo Yuhao's alliance, was instantly frozen by this attack!

"Now, do it!"

Huo Yuhao's cold voice echoed in the frozen world.

Having already received the instructions, the group did not hesitate at all, and their dazzling soul skills instantly shone brightly!

"Seven treasures emerge from crystal! The third is: Power! The first is: Speed!"

Ning Tian's clear voice was like the most beautiful melody. Seven-colored light emanated from the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in her hand, accurately landing on each of her companions, instantly boosting their strength and speed.

"Dragon's Fire!"

Behind Wang Dong'er, the wings of the Goddess of Light butterfly spread out.

"Light of the Butterfly God!"

Countless golden orbs of light rained down like a meteor shower, bombarding the frozen "sculptures".

"Thunder!"

"Xuan Ming Zhen!"

"Waist bow!"

"The shock of the cauldron!"

Rumble——!
Various powerful soul skills erupted almost simultaneously, crashing violently into the ice sculptures imprisoned by the Eternal Freeze Domain.

Ice shards flew everywhere, and the light of soul power flickered wildly.

Those trainees who were frozen in ice were already unable to resist under the extreme ice. When they were attacked by such fierce concentrated fire, the ice on their bodies shattered instantly, and they were rescued from the field by the referee without any doubt, thus being eliminated.

The entire process was incredibly fast, from the outbreak in the frozen zone to the collective effort to clear the area, taking only a few breaths.

When the light of the soul skill dissipated and the ice mist subsided slightly, there was no one else standing in the entire spacious assessment area except for Huo Yuhao and his eight companions!
The whole place was silent!

"puff--"

Elder Xuan almost spat out his wine. He suddenly straightened his swaying body, his usually sleepy eyes now wide open, staring intently at Huo Yuhao and Bingdi standing side by side in the arena, his face filled with disbelief.

"Good heavens! That's terrifying?!"

Elder Xuan couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"This kid's only level 32, right?! This domain skill... this power... and that Ice Jade Scorpion next to him, judging from its aura and ice control ability, it's at least two thousand years old! That's insane!"

Elder Xuan clicked his tongue, recalling the decisions made at the Sea God Pavilion meeting, and no longer had any doubts.

"No wonder Elder Mu and those old guys value this kid so much... This is only the second beast he's shown! The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the newly acquired Dark Demon Evil God Tiger haven't even shown up yet!"

He scrutinized Huo Yuhao with a deep gaze, secretly estimating in his mind: "If this kid goes all out, summoning three top-tier bloodline beasts at once, I'm afraid there aren't many in the inner court's regular team who could beat him, right?"

The more Elder Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that Huo Yuhao's potential was unfathomable.

Although Huo Yuhao's beast taming skills may not seem to be top-tier, each and every one of them possesses an extremely noble bloodline, making battles against opponents of higher levels a common occurrence for them.

With a thousand years of cultivation, defeating an ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beast would probably be a piece of cake.

"Auspicious beasts for humans... Chosen ones... Perhaps, it's not just empty talk."

Below, an eerie silence fell.

In the assessment area, only Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan remained standing.

The icy mist slowly dissipated, revealing an empty arena and the still somewhat dazed eliminated contestants who had been rescued by the referees. The eight looked at each other, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.

Everyone knew that there were only seven winners in this selection competition. But now, there were eight of them.

After a brief silence, Xiao Xiao stepped forward first, a relaxed smile on her face. Her gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Huo Yuhao, and she said crisply, "Everyone, I'll withdraw."

She paused, then said frankly, "Of everyone here, my soul power level is the lowest. And..."

She looked at Huo Yuhao.

"If it weren't for the class monitor always guiding and protecting me, I would have been eliminated long ago. I'm already very satisfied to have come this far."

"Xiao Xiao, this won't do!"

Wang Dong'er immediately objected and stepped forward to grab Xiao Xiao's hand.

"We're a team, how can we let you quit voluntarily?"

Ning Tian frowned slightly and said softly, "Xiao Xiao."

Beibei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan also hesitated, feeling guilty about accepting their junior's offer to step down.

Huo Yuhao felt a surge of warmth in his heart as he looked at Xiao Xiao, who had stepped forward on her own initiative.

He walked up to Xiao Xiao and, under everyone's gaze, gently patted the top of her head.

"Silly girl,"

"With me around, when have I ever needed you to make this kind of sacrifice?"

Xiao Xiao felt the warmth coming from the top of her head, her cheeks flushed slightly, but her heart was at peace.

Huo Yuhao raised his head, turned his gaze to the edge of the arena, and said loudly, "Elder Xuan!"

As soon as the voice fell, Elder Xuan's disheveled figure appeared silently before everyone like a ghost. He held a wine gourd in his hand and wore a half-smile on his face: "What's wrong, kid? You're only starting to fight amongst yourselves now that you've finished fighting?"

Huo Yuhao asked neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Elder Xuan, the rules of this selection competition are that only seven people can remain in the end, right?"

Elder Xuan took a sip of wine and nodded slowly: "That's right, that's the rule. Seven people will go on the mission; the number is fixed."

His cloudy eyes scrutinized Huo Yuhao with a hint of amusement.

"What? You want to break this rule?"

"Any chance?"

Huo Yuhao stared directly at Elder Xuan.

Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan chuckled, hung the wine gourd back on his waist, and clapped his hands: "Yes! Rules are rules, but people are flexible. I can make an exception for you!"

He abruptly changed the subject, his lazy aura vanishing instantly, replaced by an indescribable, immense pressure that enveloped Huo Yuhao. His eyes sharpened: "The condition is... you must demonstrate your full strength! Let this old man see if you are truly worthy of the academy making this precedent for you!"

Elder Xuan's voice carried an unquestionable authority: "Boy, unleash all your skills and attack! Don't hold back! If you meet my expectations and satisfy me... then you can have whatever you want! An extra spot? It's just a reserve team, a piece of cake!"

He paused, then said meaningfully, "Geniuses... have privileges! What I'm more concerned about now is the true strength of you, little monster! Stop hiding it, show me your three precious beast tamers!"

Elder Xuan's words echoed like thunder in the empty assessment area.

Everyone understood that this was not a simple test, but rather a test of Huo Yuhao's true potential by Elder Xuan!
A privilege test about whether or not one can break the rules!

A burning fighting spirit ignited in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

He took a step forward, and his soul power began to surge and flow.

"As you wish, Elder Xuan."
