Chapter 691: Build! Dragon Well Tea!

Having mastered the method of using Golden Cells, Li Hao also had far fewer scruples. Coupled with the support of Shilada, he no longer needed to keep a low profile as he had before. Humans and the Ozil Empire were now like grasshoppers tied to the same rope; once the situation in Ozil changed, humans would lose their greatest reliance. Without that protection, the Solar System wouldn't even need to face other potential enemies—simply facing the counterattack of the Orcs alone was something they currently couldn't withstand.

The destruction of Masa Planet had briefly intimidated the Orcs, but did the Orcs, having caught their breath, really have no other thoughts? They had been brewing a counterattack all along, only held back by the attitude of the Ozil Empire and certain uncertain factors. Even if humans possessed a Black Hole Weapon, if they used it once more, then it wouldn't just be the Orcs—other forces would find a way to annihilate humanity.

The existence of certain things is what provides deterrence.

The key to the current situation lay with Hermia; not only did she need to ascend the throne smoothly, but she also had to grasp real power after the ascension, rather than being sidelined by various factions. There was absolutely no shortage of two-faced fence-sitters in the Council of Elders and the Sacred Song Committee.

Under Helena's hopeful gaze, Li Hao walked toward the center of the Arena. At this moment, Zuo Xiaotang, Ma Long, and the others in the back saw this too. They exchanged glances, and their hearts instantly surged with emotion. Back then, they had also followed Li Hao step by step, fighting their way to the S Tournament and standing on the highest stage.

For a moment, there was whispering in the Arena. After all, Defatandisi and Gannimeitis had just staged a battle of the Nine Holy Lights level; those appearing afterward had to weigh their own status. Yet the "Celestial" before them was somewhat unfamiliar, and he was accompanied by the Fire Dragon woman Ning Long, leading to immediate and widespread speculation.

"Everyone, this is the Human Warrior Li Hao from the Solar System. He only began advanced studies at the Ruling Dragon Alliance this year, but he has shown extraordinary performance and rendered great service in suppressing the Yimogu Rebellion. He is a Dragon Elder of our Ruling Dragon Alliance and has gained the favor of Her Highness Princess Hermia. Next, he will initiate a challenge. Which expert is willing to offer instruction?" Ning Long introduced. As soon as these words were spoken, they stirred up a thousand waves; everyone's interest was instantly piqued.

Human? Dragon Elder? The favor of Her Highness the Princess?

With these pieces of information combined, more Celestials were skeptical. Most had only heard rumors about Li Hao and did not treat them as key information. When they actually saw him, a strange, inexplicable feeling arose.

Just this?

Any traditional powerhouse harbors hostility toward newly emerging forces, especially when wondering why a mere human would deserve the favor of Her Highness the Princess. This "favor" stirred up dissatisfaction among many Celestials present.

Even if he had the credit for suppressing the rebellion, what the hell did that have to do with a mere human?

Whether they were from advanced civilizations or Seed Civilizations, the crowd felt a bit of disdain. For a time, many were eager to try their hand. The other things didn't matter much, but the status of Dragon Elder was very worth challenging; whoever won could replace the Dragon Elder's position, which was a very tangible benefit.

Ning Long knew this would be the effect. She certainly knew the Ozil Royal Family's fondness for Li Hao and the humans, but this did not align with the Dragon Race's plans. The Dragon Race had other arrangements for humans and did not wish for Ozil to provide too much help to the Solar System, as that would hinder the Dragon Race's subsequent plans. Previously, Li Hao was intended to serve as the pivot for this relationship.

The reason they had given Li Hao some help before was mainly as a means to disgust Haosen, while simultaneously reducing the attention on Defatandisi to facilitate their plans. At the same time, it was also to groom Li Hao as a target for controlling human forces later. However, what Li Hao did on Masa Planet revealed many problems: he was the type who was hard to control and easily went to extremes. He would not submit, and this was not the kind of target the Dragon Race needed to groom.

They hadn't expected Li Hao to return alive, and as soon as he returned, the direction of Ozil changed again. The push from forces inclined toward the Dragon Race had been nearly complete, but just yesterday, Shilada's attitude had turned tough again.

Regardless of whether it had anything to do with Li Hao, or how much it had to do with him, this human had become a stumbling block and could not be left alive. But the Dragon Race, unless absolutely necessary, did not want to take action directly; this was the grand strategy for the Dragon Race to maintain its unique status in the Star Alliance.

If they stepped in directly whenever they encountered an obstacle, after doing it too many times and for too long, that transcendent, aloof status would be hard to maintain.

"Where did this kid pop out from? Ruling Dragon Elder? Is Defatandisi joking?"

"I feel like this human must be a target; I wonder whose shield he's acting as."

"I heard he defeated Haosen; he should have some substance."

"Haosen? That piece of trash from Yimogu? That thing is worth nothing. Just now, Her Highness Ning Long said our Princess favors him—that is simply nonsense!"

"Why don't you go up and test him?"

"He's not worthy. What is his status? Is he worth me challenging?"

"The favor of Her Highness the Princess, and it's this kind of trash? Isn't this tarnishing the honor of Her Highness the Princess? Damn him!"

"Seva Langku, the nemesis of you Orcs has arrived. Aren't you going to show something?" Falandisi said loudly.

The dispute between humans and Orcs was the liveliest topic at the moment. The Orcs were the lackeys of the Silver Heart Alliance, and their strength was truly fierce. They were the famous jackals of the Star Alliance; they wanted to tear into anything they saw as meat, and they exploited and plundered lower civilizations in every way. This was the first time they had suffered such a huge setback, even having a planet destroyed in an unclear manner and losing an entire fleet, losing great face in the Star Alliance. Seva Langku's appearance was different from the ruggedness of ordinary Orcs; although the fangs on his face were just as sharp, his face was slender, giving him a cold, sinister look. "Pretty boy, I don't need you pointing fingers at how I do things. If you have guts, you go up. If you can win against him, I'll acknowledge you as my big brother. If you lose, I'll make you understand why flowers are so red!"

Seva Langku did not give Falandisi a good look, directly retorting until Falandisi's face flushed red. If they weren't in the Dragon Alliance, he likely would have fought him.

Everyone was not familiar with each other to begin with. For someone to come up and stir up trouble like this—if they really thought the Orcs were stupid, they were pigs. The Empire had long since dispatched intelligence organizations to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the Masa Planet destruction event, but in the end, they were unable to determine how the black hole occurred.

What was even more terrifying was that Li Hao had survived a black hole that swallowed a fleet and caused a General to fall. What was relatively certain in the intelligence was that Li Hao was fighting General Man Ciku, meaning that when the black hole formed, he should have been unable to escape. And who could escape the pursuit of a General?

Man Ciku was quite senior among the Orc Generals, belonging to the remaining backbone-like existences, not those who had just entered the Universe Force Stage.

As one of the Nine Holy Lights, Seva Langku was already a General of a planet and possessed a broader future. They were the new generation of Orcs and were very annoyed by the Celestials' habit of always acting high and mighty and pointing fingers.

Regardless of what others thought, this human Li Hao was much stronger in his eyes than many Celestials. He repaid grievances with grievances and debts with debts; he had a ruthless streak and was a very dangerous character. To go up and engage in a senseless dispute for the sake of pride—especially when it was obvious that Ning Long wanted to kill him with kindness—he didn't want to be a pawn and throw himself up there.

As for the matter between humans and Orcs, what did it have to do with him, Seva Langku? The Orcs didn't have good relationships with anyone; they only looked at interests, not anything else.

Although the Orcs refused to make a move, more than ten challengers had already appeared, but they were all below the Holy Light level, and none were even Dragon Elders; clearly, they all prided themselves on their status.

Seva Langku's gaze remained on Li Hao. This was also his first time seeing this creature that had dealt a heavy blow to the Orc race.

Ning Long frowned inadvertently. She hoped someone could directly defeat Li Hao to avoid complications, but if she let these people go up, it would instead boost Li Hao's momentum, which was not what she wanted. At this stage, Li Hao had become an obstacle; if he happened to win and leave, it would have been making a wedding dress for him.

Suddenly, she ignored the group of challengers and smiled at Li Hao, "The human origin, Earth, has always had legends of dragons. Li Hao, don't you want to spar with us? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and also a time for excellent warriors of more civilizations to see the power of humans!"

Li Hao was also quite impressed; the "hidden dagger in a smile" was used so masterfully. The Dragon woman's large eyes even held watery sincerity, and combined with her status and beauty, it would make people feel she was truly looking out for him. In the words of Ma Laoshi, this was a typical refined, selfish "green tea"—Dragon Well tea?

Li Hao smiled slightly and looked around, "Just as Ning Long said, the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts is a good opportunity to learn from the Dragon Race. Everyone, Anthem Warriors, wait a moment; let me first learn about the characteristics of the Dragon Race. In our human ancient mythology, there is the story of Nezha stirring up the sea, which is very famous."

Ma Long and Zuo Xiaotang looked at each other, almost laughing out loud. This works too?

Xilian, on the other hand, revealed a smile. Having allies is good for this reason: strong alliances. As long as Li Hao and the Dragon Race fought, they wouldn't have a chance today. Moreover, as long as Li Hao's trump cards were forced out, he would be secure. He understood human things well, and he understood Celestial things even better. Talent is something that, as long as it is displayed once, a method to counter it can be found.

What he worried about was Li Hao not taking the bait. And he believed that, having reached this point, with Li Hao's brain, he probably had long since seen that the Dragon Race was the one behind all of this. But regardless, it served his interests.

Ji Tian had no interest at all, while Ying Hong wore a smile, "Li Hao, for the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, we of the Dragon Race will naturally accompany you. You choose your opponent."

Ying Hong was the big brother of the Five Dragons and also displayed the superior demeanor of the Dragon Race.

"Let's start with an Ice Dragon to warm up," Li Hao pointed at one of them casually.

Ning Long frowned. In an instant, the entire Dragon Alliance Arena was filled with a buzz of noise due to this arrogant remark. Laughter and discussion were constant; even the people from the Ruling Dragon Alliance felt Li Hao's attitude was a bit strange.

Li Hao's expression was calm; ostentation was clearly not his style. Today, things like Coronation Knight were just additional items. The Dragon Race was aiming for him, and coincidentally, he was also aiming for the Dragon Race.

Ning Long's suggestion was exactly what he wanted—killing two birds with one stone.

Ying Hong had a smile that wasn't quite a smile, Ji Yao's lips curled with mockery, and Jiang Qing had already arrived in the center of the field in an instant. The Dragon Race didn't need so many thoughts; since she was challenged, she would fight. The four of them had come this time to cooperate with Ning Long, ensure the Dragon Race's plan was implemented smoothly, and clear away all obstacles.

Ning Long looked at Li Hao, her gaze flickering, not knowing what she was thinking. The Ice Dragon's human form was very tall. Jiang Qing sized up the human before her; the directness of the Dragon Race allowed her to feel the vigorous life force in the opponent, but she didn't know what gave a low-level human such courage.

"You may use Heaven Martial Arts," Jiang Qing said indifferently. "In the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, one should use their full strength. Life or death is not guaranteed; do you know this?"

Li Hao smiled, "You don't need to, and I don't need to either. It's just a spar; it's only interesting if it's fair. In the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, life and death are up to fate."

A cold light flashed across the Dragon woman's vertical pupils, and then a grand, rotating ice ring exploded directly, and a violent ice storm bombarded everything indiscriminately.

The Ice Dragon's temper... was actually more irritable than the Fire Dragon's. With the same Universe Power upper limit of the Zhou Lan Grade, the Dragon Race was the highest among all creatures—absolute suppression. The Dragon Race could also defeat early-stage Universe Force Stage Celestials without even needing to shapeshift. The race favored by the Creator was not just bragging.

The terrifying ice storm swept out. With just this strike, the small frames of other creatures would be gone. Jiang Qing turned around, preparing to leave. Many warriors also looked at this human whose brain didn't seem to work very well. Was he trying to act tough with his life?

"Where are you going?" Li Hao's voice sounded. The Dragon woman suddenly discovered the opponent was right beside her. She threw a Dragon Fist in a backhand strike. Don't look at how beautiful she was; the Dragon Race's strength was such that even the Giant Race had to give way.

Relying on their superior physical conditions, the Dragon Race's physical techniques were also different from other races, and the ice flames overflowing from their bodies were constantly eroding their opponents.

*Swish, swish, swish, swish. *

A series of lightning-like punches and kicks bombarded Li Hao in a frenzy. Li Hao parried every move while simultaneously absorbing the opponent's cold energy. The Advanced Soul Devouring ability could directly absorb these powers; this pure soul power was very delicious, and the purer and higher-level it was, the better it was to absorb. As for that bit of frost attribute, it couldn't break through his A-Grade Resistance at all. The activation of the Soul Card still had a very obvious effect; in the past, this kind of cold energy would have required consuming a considerable amount of Universe Power to resist.

Possessing the same Soul Absorption power, Zuo Xiaotang's level is weaker and he cannot absorb it directly in combat, but Li Hao is completely different now; the baptism of two missions was very important.

When it comes to physical techniques, the Dragon Race really doesn't measure up. Li Hao threw a backhand punch, directly breaking through Jiang Qing's attack. Boom—

With a shockwave in place, the Dragon Girl's body buckled, and accompanied by a sonic boom, she flew out like a cannonball, crashing directly into the energy shield supported by the Eternal Crystal. The energy shield showed ripples of vibration, and before Jiang Qing could react, Li Hao had already arrived at her side, unleashing a wild bombardment while suspended in mid-air.

Da-da-da-da-da.

Jiang Qing shielded herself with her arms, a layer of Dragon Scale Armor blocking her front, enduring Li Hao's wild bombardment. The defensive power of the Dragon Scale Armor was even more impressive than Heavenly Martial arts. A cold sneer appeared at the corner of Li Hao's mouth, and he slammed a heavy punch into it. Jiang Qing also felt the threat and instantly dodged, forcibly creating distance.

Li Hao's body remained suspended without pursuing. He looked at Jiang Qing in the air with leisure, "Transform into a dragon. This way you are no match for me. Forgot to tell you, Humans are most skilled at various physical techniques."

The Ice Dragon girl was enraged. The opponent could actually attack her using power of the same level as her own?

Zeng...

Jiang Qing flew into the air, her fists clenched tightly, followed by ice flames surging violently. Accompanied by a Dragon Roar, she dove straight down. At the same time, violent Universe Power descended like a giant dragon. Dragon Bows Head!

Li Hao did not move. The massive power pursued like a meteorite, and the ice explosion formed a white mushroom cloud that exploded with a bang inside the martial arts arena. However, the sounds of collision inside were incessant; fists and feet crossed. Jiang Qing was shocked and angry; the Ice Dragon's strongest Frost Invasion was completely useless, and the opponent's stimulation and application of power were actually stronger than her own. Jiang Qing used Soul Dragon Roar to try to interfere with Li Hao, but Li Hao immediately retaliated with a Soul Explosion, precisely bombing Jiang Qing's head. The Dragon Girl felt a wave of dizziness and was kicked away by Li Hao, spraying out a mouthful of precious dragon blood.

Li Hao did put some effort into this strike; he wanted to see the Dragon Transformation. If the Dragon Race obtained the power of Dragon Transformation from the Star Realm, then wouldn't there be some traces of it?

The entire audience watched silently as a Human beat up a Star-Casting Dragon Race member. A Human not wearing Heavenly Martial gear had injured a member of the Dragon Race, and didn't even pursue, leaving everyone unable to tell who the challenger was. Since the start of the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, all Five Dragons had been challenged. Someone like Ji Tian had fought over ten matches at once, let alone being injured, not even his skin was broken. Even when facing the Elites of the various clans in the Dragon Alliance, the Dragon Race still maintained crushing individual combat power.

This... Jiang Qing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, anger surging in her heart, but she knew that in that split second, her opponent had broken her Dragon Bows Head. Every time she tried to parry, the opponent would grasp the details. It was a gap she could feel but couldn't understand. This kind of small technique made her unable to use her strength, and her ice flames couldn't cause any damage to him either. Dragon Might was also useless. Among all the opponents she had encountered, there had never been anyone like this.

Must transform into a dragon!

Cold Universe Flame soared into the sky, accompanied by sounds of dragon roars. The dragon horns on her head also flashed with the light of an Elite. Her Universe Power climbed continuously, a cluster of ice flames exploded, and her body suddenly expanded, constantly twisting and growing larger. In a moment, she turned into a Frost Giant Dragon over ten meters tall, with huge wings and dragon claws. At this time, her Universe Power had risen to another level, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and accompanied by a roar toward the sky, the infrasonic wave of the Dragon Roar exploded directly. Everyone present couldn't help but cover their ears; the protective shield couldn't completely block such an attack. Ma Long's face turned pale instantly when hit by the Dragon Roar, panting heavily, and he hurriedly took out a bottle of Primary Soul Supplement and drank it. Damn it, is watching the fun life-threatening too?

Aoliweina and Haisen were also there. Haisen was still Aoliweina's most loyal sycophant. He had always looked down on Li Hao, even if Li Hao had made great contributions during the Yimogu Rebellion, he still looked down on him. Anyway, he just felt that Humans were a low-level civilization, and he didn't know how many times he had complained about his future brother-in-law's sycophantic behavior.

Aoliweina looked at Li Hao with burning eyes. Too handsome, too domineering. She believed in Kuta's judgment more and more. Kuta's sycophantic behavior toward Li Hao was absolutely incredible. He chased all the way to Kepler, and when he heard that Humans were attacking Masa, he really thought Li Hao was crazy, but the result was that Li Hao won a great victory.

Facing the Ice Dragon's roar, Li Hao, who was on the battlefield, remained motionless. This is a great general!

Following closely, the vigorous Ice Flame Dragon Breath came.

The Ice Dragon's Dragon Breath, which could freeze both flesh and soul, contained the Dragon Girl's anger. The emotion was obvious, without any concealment. What elegance, what nobility—when they lose their temper, they are all the same.

It's just that the Dragon Race has always been winning, and coupled with their inherently extremely arrogant nature, and with their own kind and so many outsiders present, their personalities are more prone to going berserk. Their gentility and restraint are all a performance; the nature of a living being is the same!

Covering a range of dozens of meters, Li Hao's figure flashed away instantly. Ever since the Dragon Race possessed the Dragon Transformation ability, it was like they had enabled a cheat. Dragon Breath had extra lethality to the souls of all races, impossible to guard against, and was also the nemesis of Void creatures. Heaven-chosen—once the Dragon Race possessed the ability to transform, they stepped onto the fast track of evolution, combining the characteristics of various races.

If the Dragon Race had not transformed, the Celestials would actually have had a hope of victory, but once they transformed, the chances were slim. Like the level of Augustus, how many are there among the Celestials?

Of course, not every member of the Star-Casting Dragon Race can transform; the proportion is relatively low. And those with such obvious attributes and such strong abilities are also few and far between in the Dragon Race. Being able to come to the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts to accept challenges from experts from all walks of life is in itself proof that they are the best among their respective tribes.

The Ice Dragon's temperament is cold, and deep down she is actually extremely proud. How could Jiang Qing tolerate her own disadvantage? Every move was fatal.

The Dragon Breath swept the surroundings crazily, the covered range also carrying terrifying soul pressure. Ordinary creatures would be unable to even move their bodies when encountering it.

But Li Hao was completely unaffected, dodging and shifting within the Dragon Breath. Seemingly surviving in the cracks, he was actually absorbing the Dragon Power all along. After the Dragon Transformation, the level of Dragon Power indeed had a qualitative improvement, higher than the Universe Force Stage of the Celestials, and the manifestation of the soul was also exceptionally good, having a leap compared to their original situation. The soul fluctuations were different from before.

Therefore, this power originates from the mystery of Dragon Transformation.

At the same time, he clearly felt that there was a "key opportunity" from the Star Realm in it. Since becoming the Manager of two S-level worlds, his understanding of the Star Realm had completely different feelings compared to ordinary saints.

Regarding this matter, he had discussed and explored it with Kevin for a long time. BLee, Star Realm, Dragon Race, Humans—he was going to play a big game today!

Dragon Breath cannot be completely avoided, yet Li Hao was not swept by it. Let alone this kind of Dragon Breath, even Jiang Qing's Universe Power would cause one's movements to stiffen if swept by it, and weaker ones would be directly frozen. However, Li Hao, who had been swept, was still jumping around, making the noisy scene, which had originally been watching the fun and jokes, gradually fall into silence.

Li Hao seemed to be dodging constantly, but in essence, he was just circling around; he had no intention of creating distance. This was more like... teasing?

This level of absorption can be continuously analyzed. Dragon Power is indeed a good thing. This power is still essentially different from the Golden Cell, but the Golden Cell cannot be popularized, and the process is a life-and-death gamble. Dragon Transformation is actually still at the level of the Inner Universe, it's just that the Dragon Race obtained better evolution through the Star Realm, better than the Universe Force of the Celestials. It is indeed the most excellent breed below the Golden Cell.

This should be given to those brothers who possess the Dragon Soul essence; just thinking about it feels great.

Boom...

While thinking, a burst of Dragon Breath suddenly sprayed out in an umbrella shape, hitting Li Hao directly. At the same time, the huge dragon tail arrived in an instant. Dragon Flash Moving Mountain Sweep!

The huge dragon tail directly swept Li Hao, who had been hit by the Dragon Breath, away. The incomparably hard martial arts arena couldn't hold up either; Li Hao was smashed directly into it like a painting on the ground. This still wasn't enough to vent her anger; the Ice Dragon opened her huge mouth, and terrifying dragon power surged and condensed from her abdomen, unleashing a brutal, continuous spray of Dragon Breath at the ground.

Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom.

What was touted as the Star Alliance's most powerful individual Universe Power attack was crazily bombing the place where Li Hao was. Even with Heavenly Martial protection, it would be fatal, let alone without it. This was meant to completely crush him. The entire martial arts arena was shaking, causing all the buildings in the Sacred Song Special Warfare Center to sway like an earthquake. If anyone says the Dragon Race has a good temper again, let them have a taste of this.

Ma Long and Zuo Xiaotang's palms were soaked with sweat, especially Ma Long; he couldn't estimate this power level at all. Zuo Xiaotang could feel that Li Hao's aura was still there, but this scene was still terrifying. The power of the Dragon Race's Dragon Breath made him feel a stinging pain; it was an existence with an extremely high level of lethality.

In such an environment, Zuo Xiaotang's soul essence was also being activated. With the personality of an ordinary person, yet possessing an extremely extraordinary soul, Zuo Xiaotang's pupils had turned red.

Li Hao had been frozen into a huge ice sculpture, appearing lifelike under the lights, shining like a diamond.

Jiang Qing, who had turned into a giant dragon, roared toward the sky, venting the anger in her heart. Xilian, who was off-stage, also revealed a smile. Why bother? Having reached such a vast world as the Star Alliance, yet still sitting in a well and looking at the sky.

Aoliweina looked back at Kuta. Kuta blinked his big eyes, a bit panicked... Damn it, the Dragon Race is too terrifying, it's completely cheating! Super defense, super physique, and Dragon Soul attacks. Looking huge, the speed is also amazing, plus Dragon Might, and an added freezing attribute.

Ning Long, who was watching from the sidelines, inadvertently shed her disguise, her killing intent devoid of any "human" emotion. Those with a rebellious streak cannot be "friends" of the Dragon Race.

Suddenly, Ning Long's expression shifted slightly, because she felt that the gaze of the frozen Li Hao seemed to be looking at her. Li Hao was indeed looking at her. How to put it—when he first entered the Judgment, Ning Long did indeed help a lot. He had always kept it in mind; now, it could be settled. Inside the freezing ice, Li Hao threw a punch. Boom.

The iceberg shattered, and countless fragments exploded, bombing the surrounding energy shields like cannonballs.

Before Li Hao could move, a burst of Dragon Breath had already descended from the sky.

? Sneak attack, can't afford to lose?

Li Hao stretched out his left hand, and a golden Universe Force Shield blocked the Dragon Breath. The fatal Dragon Breath spraying over expanded to the surroundings, yet it couldn't break through Li Hao's Universe Force Shield?!

The whole audience was whispering. Now the eyes looking at Li Hao had changed. There wasn't too much surprise that the Five Dragons could transform; the Dragon Race dared to travel the world because they were prepared. Depending on the level of the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, the quality of the Dragon Race sent also varied. This Empress's ascension to the throne was the biggest event in the Heavenly Human World, and the Five Dragons sent were the strongest of the Dragon Race's generation.

The warriors who challenged the Dragon Race before didn't think about winning at all, because having the courage to challenge was enough to brag about for a long time. So most people would go find Ji Tian; after all, the Star Dragon's face was the biggest, and since it was a loss anyway, this showed more courage.

But what was going on with this Human in front of them?

How could he resist the Dragon Breath so easily, and without even using Heavenly Martial gear, nor an Imperial Artifact?

Are Humans this terrifying?

If someone said he was a member of the Ozil Empire royal family, an illegitimate child of the Emperor, people would believe it...

Li Hao looked at Jiang Qing. The Dragon Race's power relied entirely on soul talent and the biological ability of Dragon Transformation. How to put it—it had zero technical content.

This look completely enraged Jiang Qing. She raised her neck and roared~~~

An even more intense ice flame breath flooded toward Li Hao. The martial arts arena had been frozen over at some point. Li Hao held up his left hand and approached the giant ice dragon step by step.

Step, step... like a War God.

This scene left everyone present dumbfounded, especially those dozen or so challengers who had just been pondering how to beat the Dragon Elder to a pulp and become famous throughout the world in a single battle; if they went up there now, wouldn't they be beaten to death with a single punch?

The key was that no one present could sense Li Hao's power level; it was not power of the Celestial type.

A Spirit trait unique to Humans?

Top-tier Celestials are also frantically researching the Dragon Race's Dragon Transformation Power; after thousands of years, they have certainly developed various defensive methods. Regular Dragon Breath is manageable, but this attribute, which carries the intense power of the universe's origin, is truly too lethal and can even directly destroy a Celestial Warrior; only by fully unleashing the power of an Imperial Artifact can one contend with it.

But there has never been one that could go head-to-head like this.

Xilian's expression was now undisguisedly ugly; this was the reason he dared not make a move even though he possessed Universe Force Stage power. He highly suspected that Li Hao had also reached it and even had a trump card, because this bastard's gaze was exactly the same as it had been many years ago—he had never taken anyone seriously—yet, Xilian felt that the other party was not being arrogant!

Xilian clenched his fists tightly, the anger making his forehead ache, especially with the whispers of everyone around him, all discussing Humans, discussing Li Hao, and clicking their tongues in wonder, ruining all the effect he had painstakingly built up. This damn sense of oppression—as a Human, he had brought his posturing all the way to the Dragon Alliance Martial Arts, trampling every bit of the superiority Xilian felt due to his status into nothingness.

Zuo Xiaotang and Ma Long clenched their fists tightly, nervous yet excited. Gaia, on the side, had her mouth wide open; when Li Hao wanted to challenge the Dragon Race, it had truly given Gaia quite a scare. What was happening? Celestials have an innate sense of superiority over any civilization, except for the Star-Forging Dragon Race; the most direct way to win the respect of Celestials is to defeat the Dragon Race...

Kuta swallowed his saliva, a smug smile appearing on his face again, and kicked the back of Aoliweina's seat, "How about that? You have to believe in Li Ge; this is my own big brother."

Aoliweina had no time to be angry with Kuta; her brain couldn't keep up anymore.

Helena and Lavitan clearly saw the shock in each other; the High Priest and the Princess clearly possessed secrets they did not know. Li Hao being able to become a Manager of the Endless Maze, looking at it this way, was truly not relying on luck. In the history of the Star Realm, there was no shortage of those who were lucky, happened to pass some S-Class Task, and soared to the sky. Regardless of the civilization, luck is extremely important. They had all felt that Li Hao was one-tenth strength and nine-tenths picking up scraps.

Looking at it now, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Jiang Qing had not been in the Dragon Transformation state for long; this form was also extremely taxing on the body. Li Hao could sense that the other party's mastery of the Dragon Transformation Power was very raw, relying mainly on instinct. It was just that this Dragon Transformation Power was not innate to the Dragon Race; it was merely something their ancestors had obtained in the Star Realm.

Regarding the level of power, no one could exert psychological pressure on Li Hao, and the other party's freezing attribute did not exceed his Spirit resistance.

"Jiang Qing, if you have any other trump cards, use them. Your power is starting to wane; it's not enough to fight. The Dragon Race, how should I put it, sigh, a bit disappointing." In the midst of the confrontation, Li Hao suddenly spoke.

In an instant, the expressions of the experts nearby changed. Jiang Qing had bitterness she could not voice and swept out her dragon tail.

Swish.

His figure suddenly vanished, the Dragon Breath blasted out by inertia, but the golden figure had already arrived before the dragon body. He pulled back his right hand, and accompanied by a booming sound like a heartbeat, the Space Ability trembled. Boom...

A punch blasted out!

The Ice Dragon's pupils contracted instantly, keenly sensing danger. Her body wanted to move, her intent arrived, but her body could not move.

With a muffled thud, the massive dragon-woman was blasted away. Dragon blood gushed out like a fountain. She rolled on the ground for a while, her wings struggling and flapping as she tried to get up, but after a few attempts, she was still floundering on the ground. The dragon roar reached her throat and turned into a wail; in the end, she could not stand up and could only crawl on the ground, gasping for air.

Li Hao's punch had already pierced through the giant dragon's body; it was just a bit larger in size, that's all.

In the eyes of countless Dragon Alliance Warriors, the Dragon Race's high and mighty, unreachable image also collapsed in this instant.
