High above, the starry giant inspector responsible for overseeing this area was momentarily stunned.

Since when did humans become more straightforward and crude than giants?

Couldn’t you wait for the old dragon to stand up straight, finish chanting protective spells, before making a move?

These young people nowadays...

In the battlefield.

Zhou Leng hadn’t yet reached out habitually to obtain the spoils when a flash of white light passed by, and the dragon corpse vanished.

Ahead, three portals appeared.

They were marked with divine text as "Beginner," "Intermediate," and "Advanced."

The screen before had explained the rules.

Most of the time, trial takers can choose for themselves.

But there are two problems.

One is, sometimes there is only one portal, so no choice can be made.

The second is that the giant dragons also change; beginner dragons may advance, advanced dragons may perish.

Since many battlefields were set up years ago, changes are inevitable, and the divine spirits are too lazy to intervene, plus wanting to increase the difficulty.

Zhou Leng thought for a moment, as a human, he shouldn’t be as reckless as the giants, first attempting the intermediate, and then decide on subsequent options based on circumstances.

Stride forward, entering the intermediate battlefield.

Upon entry, an overwhelming dragon aura greeted him, heavier than the old dragon’s presence earlier.

Upper-Rank Demigod.

A circular battlefield over a thousand meters in diameter, entirely shrouded in that dragon aura.

It was a giant dragon with a mouth full of white mustaches, fluttering sideways like white sleeves, all the way to the back of the head.

The entire body was covered in ice crystal dragon scales, shining with a rainbow of hues under the sunlight.

Unlike middle-rank demigods, when it exerted its power, cyclones naturally formed around its body, over ten meters away.

Dust and particles in the air gathered within the cyclones, blocked by invisible forces, gently rotating around him.

Ordinary upper-rank demigods find it hard to condense power so early; usually, only peak demigods or demigod kings have such presence.

"Starry Sky Body?" Zhou Leng recalled a similar phenomenon during his own advancement.

"You’ve got a good eye, but your luck is a bit off. I have already ascended to Upper-Rank. I originally..."

Zhou Leng stepped forward, punching directly.

No time for idle chatter.

The ice crystal dragon was furious, opened its mouth, spewing vast icy dragon breath, while letting out a low growl.

"Where does this brute come from? I am an honorable upper-rank demigod; why do you not know fear..."

With a punch, ten suns exploded in succession, countering the dragon breath, the terrifying power flipped the ice crystal dragon.

In mid-air, the ice crystal dragon suddenly found that person appearing beside him, instantly understood why the other was fearless.

The opponent also had a starry sky body, and seemed stronger.

"Get down!"

The ice crystal dragon let out a low roar, launching an invisible dragon aura mental attack at Zhou Leng, while simultaneously swinging its dragon claw.

Whoosh...

A shadow of an icy giant claw, fused with dragon power and spells, flew out, instantly expanding to a hundred meters high, descending like a mountain.

Suddenly, the ice crystal dragon rolled its eyes, its body trembled, claw twitched, the giant icy claw veered sharply to the right, flying into empty space.

In an instant, the ice crystal dragon vanished from its original spot.

Boom!

Zhou Leng’s punch smashed down, debris flew, leaving a massive crater on the ground.

Turning his head, the distant ice crystal dragon stood upright like a human, dragon claws spread open on both sides, resting against the wall behind.

Blood streaks streamed from the corners of its eyes.

It looked at Zhou Leng, stuttering, "You...how is your spiritual power so strong? And, how do you have the protection of the dragon god’s power? Your Excellency."

He released dragon aura, only for his opponent’s spiritual force and rank to be higher, suffering a double backlash.

"Fight me properly, I need some time to defeat you, since you’re already an upper-rank demigod. You just had to use dragon aura."

Zhou Leng said, rushing forward, launching a punch, the air exploded.

The ice crystal dragon, suffering a backlash and brain injury, dared not withstand it, another teleportation avoiding the attack.

"Your Excellency, I admit defeat, we’re all part of the dragon race, spare my life, I promise to repay you..."

"Surrender yourself," Zhou Leng said.

"Impossible..."

Zhou Leng struck again.

A punch, the unseen cold enveloped half the battlefield ahead, air condensing into snowflakes, slowly falling.

The fifteenth move of East Wind Fist, Wind Conquers the North.

The mighty punch, snow and wind filled wherever it spread.

The ice crystal dragon attempted teleportation again, failed.

"You..." the ice crystal dragon exclaimed softly, flapping wings in retreat.

Zhou Leng seemed to be within his divine country, utilizing the residual power of Wind Conquers the North, a punch storming onwards, a deluge of punch shadows raining down.

The ice crystal dragon hurriedly struck to block, but due to the backlash from dragon aura, its power was greatly diminished.

It only managed to block part of the punch shadows, many went through its defenses, landing upon it.

Bang bang bang...

In the blink of an eye, a thousand punches landed.

Each punch created a fist-sized bloody hole, all half a meter in diameter.

In an instant, the enormous upper-rank demigod giant dragon, bloodied and mutilated, flew backwards, crashed onto the ground, dust flying, spilling blood as it rolled.

It tilted its head, blood gurgling from its throat, mouth gently opening and closing, wanting to speak, yet unable to.

Its gaze filled with doubt.

Facing his combat technique was apparently ordinary, but inexplicably broke through his defenses.

Now looking back, it felt as if all its combat styles were seen through by the opponent.

That sensation was very strange.

"Divine Son..."

Suddenly, it understood, this person was just like the divine sons it had encountered.

True gods’ guidance, precise and ultimate.

"Such a peculiar human..." Its head tilted, losing consciousness.

Zhou Leng withdrew his hand, standing still.

After several seconds, white light swept by, taking away the ice crystal dragon.

Once again, three portals appeared.

Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced.

Zhou Leng pondered for a moment, then stepped into the advanced gate.

"Oh?"

Just settling his footing, an earth-shattering boom resonated across the battlefield, clearly just the opponent’s light hum, yet it shook the entire arena.

Ahead, stood three dragons.

In the center, a black dragon, looking seemingly ordinary, just like most of the dragon race, a large-winged lizard.

On either side of it stood two black liquid metal giant dragons.

Their bodies slowly flowing, surfaces gleaming black, resembling oil.

Zhou Leng glanced, furrowed his brow slightly.

Rank 10 in the Hundred Dragon Clans, Double Shadow Dragon.

Upper-Rank Demigod.

Only one dragon, but due to having two shadow dragons, effectively equals three.

Additionally, as Double Shadow Dragons are often guardians of many dragon gods, they possess high concentrations of true divine blood.

In the eyes of the Double Shadow Dragon before him, a peculiar glimmering dragon tooth floated.

The dragon tooth emitted a familiar dragon aura.

True divine dragon aura.

A true god had imprinted a void god’s dragon tooth within this Double Shadow Dragon’s body.

Divine spirit’s gift.

Zhou Leng slowly took a deep breath, the sun and moon within his abdomen roared and rotated, mighty starry cosmic energy spread across his body.

Simultaneously, the Double Shadow Dragon opposite also released dragon power, numerous dragon tooth tattoos covering every dragon scale. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The divine power spread across him.

"You, shall advance no further."

The Double Shadow Dragon’s body slowly rose, its two shadow dragons let out a low growl, both lunged forward simultaneously.

Zhou Leng’s body slightly crouched, his legs swelled threefold, pants burst, tattered cloth scattered.

On his shallow bronze-colored legs, visible arcs of electricity sizzled and flowed.
