Every person fighting the Ur-Dragon online is dealing damage to the same health bar, that's why it's so massive. When you see the "accessing server" message when you enter the arena/kill the three pawns then your game is downloading the Ur-Dragon's current HP and heart status. Then you fight the Ur-Dragon in an offline battle for 8 minutes, after which he flies away and you will see another "accessing server" message. This time your game is uploading the damage you did to which hearts. It's possible to do enough damage so that you can noticeably see a change in his health bar in one 8 minute fight, but it requires a build designed to maximize damage. You can find this build on the Ur-Dragon page on this wiki.
