Battle lions, a kind of hybrid spirit beast that could possess wind and fire attributes, had been bred by the Xiao clan since the Spirit Energy era. Most battle lions possessed the fire attribute, followed by those that had the wind attribute. A small number of battle lions possessed both, which made them invaluable.
A young battle lion's strength was equal to a human at the Golden Core stage. Not only were they powerfully built, fast and smart, their ability to learn was also very high; they were ranked first among all spirit beasts in terms of overall intelligence.
Because of the battle lion's ferocity, the breeding of these spirit beasts was restricted by Huaxiu nation's Regulatory Office of Spirit Pets. As a result, battle lions were very rare. The Xiao clan only had about five hundred of them; they were reared in Uta Forest, which was clan territory.
Immortal Toya had one which he had won in a pill competition previously.
