Chapter 1019 â Tier 7 Combat Power
Twilight Battle Arena, top-floor arena:
âAm I hallucinating? Why does the ring look bisected?â
âA one-hit kill! Is this the strength of someone in the Divine Glory Listâs top ten?â
The players watching the duel gaped at the bandaged young manâs corpse, shocked by s.h.i.+ Fengâs display of strength.
Everyone here had witnessed the strength of the bandaged young man from Demonâs Gate. Even before clas.h.i.+ng with Zero Wingâs Fervent Samsara, he had several duels with sixth-floor experts and hadnât lost a single HP.
Yet, the bandaged young man had failed to block even one move from s.h.i.+ Feng. They couldnât even begin to imagine how strong s.h.i.+ Feng was.
While the rest of the arena was in an uproar, over at the Seven Luminaries Allianceâs VIP seating areaâŠ
âThat person couldnât even withstand a single blow?â Verdant Rainbow muttered, staring at Soul Hunterâs corpse in disbelief. âWasnât he supposed to be equipped with the Second Great Divine Set? Could it be a fake?â
No other player or power in the human raceâs Greater G.o.dâs Domain better understood the Six Great Divine Sets than the Seven Luminaries Alliance. Hence, Verdant Rainbow knew that once a Tier 6 player equipped one of the Six Great Divine Sets, so long as they could fully access its potential, they could exhibit strength rivaling that of Primordial G.o.ds of the same level.
Not to mention, Soul Hunter was a sixth-floor expert; the Second Great Divine Set should s.h.i.+ne even more in his hands than in the hands of other Tier 6 players.
Although Verdant Rainbow could tell that s.h.i.+ Fengâs attack had undoubtedly reached the Tier 7 standard, it shouldnât have been enough to one-shot Soul Hunter. Under normal circ.u.mstances, sheâd consider it a miracle if s.h.i.+ Feng could even hold his ground against Soul Hunter using such an attack. After all, if Soul Hunter was equipped with the Second Great Divine Set and could access its full potential, his Strength Attribute should rival that of Primordial G.o.ds of the same level. After including his advantage in combat standards, he shouldnât have gotten one-shotted by s.h.i.+ Feng.
Thus, this bizarre situation led Verdant Rainbow to question the authenticity of Soul Hunterâs Blood Drinker Set.
âIf that were the case, Fervent Samsara wouldnât have been defeated so quickly,â Elder Martial said, shaking his head. Then, as he watched s.h.i.+ Feng sheath the Shadow Incinerator, he continued sternly, âSoul Hunterâs Blood Drinker Set is the real deal, but it seems that he has yet to fully unlock its potential. Nevertheless, his Basic Attributes should still be slightly superior to those of the average Divine Set user. The fact that he still got one-shotted must mean Black Flame is a bona fide Tier 7 combatant[1]!â
âA bona fide Tier 7 combatant?â At Elder Martialâs firm a.s.sessment, Verdant Rainbow couldnât help but focus on s.h.i.+ Feng, her fists clenched and her eyes wide with shock and envy.
Quite a few Divine Set users could launch attacks rivaling those of Primordial G.o.ds of the same level. Even so, they couldnât be considered Tier 7 combatants. This was because most could only launch one-off attacks that reached the Primordial G.o.d standard.
To be considered a Tier 7 combatant, players had to be able to fight Primordial G.o.ds of the same level in a direct confrontation. It wasnât enough to just be able to launch one-off attacks that reached the Primordial G.o.d standard.
Currently, only a handful of individuals across the three races could be considered a Tier 7 combatant. Hence, Verdant Rainbowâs reaction to s.h.i.+ Fengâs achievement was only natural.
Over at Zero Wingâs VIP seating area, Zero Wingâs members rejoiced when they saw Soul Hunter getting one-shotted.
âThe Guild Leader is simply incredible! This outcome mustâve dumbfounded those Demonâs Gate b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!â Fervent Samsara laughed as he looked at Demonâs Gateâs silent seating area.
âIâd expect no less! After all, this is a Tier 7 combatant weâre talking about!â Hidden Soul said, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the s.p.a.ce within the ring that remained shattered even now. âOut of the three races, only royal powers have such experts thus far!â
After the three races established safe routes into the Eternal Realm, the number of experts capable of launching attacks that rivaled those of Primordial G.o.ds had increased significantly. As a result, only powers with bona fide Tier 7 combatants would have any true sway in the current Eternal Realm.
Although the gap between Tier 7 combatants and experts capable of launching one or two Tier 7 attacks wasnât exactly insurmountable, the latter would still need to work in groups of ten or more to have a fighting chance against a Tier 7 combatant.
Even the royal powers of the three races did not have many players capable of launching Tier 7 attacks, as such players typically had to be equipped with a Divine Set and have sixth-floor combat standards. Thus, having even one Tier 7 combatant would be enough to suppress a royal power in the Eternal Realm.
While Zero Wingâs members were celebrating, the bandaged young man who had resurrected outside the ring glared at s.h.i.+ Feng with fear and anger in his eyes. He never imagined s.h.i.+ Feng would be strong to such an extent.
âBlack Flame, you win this time! But donât think this is over! It wonât be long before I crush you under my feet!â Soul Hunter barked before swiftly exiting the arena.
After Soul Hunter left, Hidden Soul, Blackie, and the others approached s.h.i.+ Feng.
âThese people from Demonâs Gate are arrogant as always. If not for Rain and Snow being occupied, we wouldnât necessarily have lost the first two matches,â Blackie said, disgruntled by Soul Hunterâs att.i.tude.
âIndeed. Rain and Snow should be able to win against him,â Hidden Soul said, nodding.
After s.h.i.+ Feng, the strongest players in Zero Wing were Phoenix Rain and Gentle Snow. Although their equipment was vastly inferior to Soul Hunterâs, they wielded extraordinarily powerful Skills and Spells. Hence, even if Soul Hunter was equipped with the Blood Drinker Set, Phoenix Rain and Gentle Snow would still have a solid chance of beating him.
âWinning against him might be easy, but itâs a different story for the other expert from Demonâs Gate.â
As soon as Hidden Soul finished speaking, a clear and powerful voice entered the ears of s.h.i.+ Feng and the other Zero Wing members. When they turned to look at the speaker, they saw that it was none other than Kingâs Paradiseâs Lunar River.
The suit of pitch-black armor Lunar River previously wore had been replaced with a suit of crimson armor. The pitch-black greatsword she carried had also multiplied, coming as a pair now. Although Lunar River had concealed much of her personal information by wearing a Black Cloak, her current aura was much stronger than when she partic.i.p.ated in Everlasting Cityâs compet.i.tion. She gave off the feeling of a Primordial Demon G.o.d that had just awoken from its slumber, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with power.
âHeâs not the strongest expert Demonâs Gate sent this time?â s.h.i.+ Feng looked at Lunar River strangely. Although his clash with Soul Hunter was brief, he could tell the other party was strong. In addition to being equipped with the Blood Drinker Set, Soul Hunter rivaled Ink Crystal in combat standards.
If not for Soul Hunterâs inability to fully exercise the Blood Drinker Setâs potential, even s.h.i.+ Fengâa bona fide Tier 7 playerâcouldnât have killed him so easily. Hence, s.h.i.+ Feng found it hard to imagine that Demonâs Gate still had stronger experts.
âOf course, heâs not the strongest,â Lunar River said, chuckling at s.h.i.+ Fengâs confusion. âHe might be incredibly strong, but the person in charge of Demonâs Gateâs forces here is someone else. This person also happens to be someone you all are familiar with.â
âSomeone weâre familiar with?â Hidden Soul looked at Lunar River curiously.
Soul Hunter rivaled Ink Crystal in combat standards. He was also equipped with the Second Great Divine Set. Even Empyreal Wraith, after reaching the sixth-floor standard, was no match for him. Hence, she found it hard to believe Demonâs Gate could have an expert stronger than Soul Hunter.
âYes.â Lunar River nodded. Then, she smiled and said, âThat person is Elise, the Star Maiden!â
This term refers to Tier 6 players who can reliably dish out attacks that reach the Tier 7 standard. (In other words, everyone is under the a.s.sumption that s.h.i.+ Feng is still a Tier 6 player. n.o.body a.s.sumes he has reached Tier 7.)
