Zhao Mingwei had been thinking about the meaning of the Awakening.
In the eyes of most players, awakening was nothing more than obtaining a powerful skill. The name of the profession changed from the common name of Qi Practitioner to the fancy name of Mad Tiger Emperor.
Apart from this, Zhao Mingwei had heard that some female Qi Masters would be called Dazzling Hundred Blossoms after their Awakening.
The class change system for Holy Spirits was very complicated. Zhao Mingwei had read many posts on the forums, but none of them had summarized all of the Holy Spirits' class changes.
But Zhao Mingwei felt that the meaning of the Awakening … wasn't just to obtain a powerful skill, but also to make the name for the class more impressive.
Perhaps other players didn't feel this way, but after Zhao Mingwei completed the Awakening quest and received the Golden Thunder Tiger's recognition, he felt something new in his body.
It was a bit like the transformation from a 'mortal' Qi Master to an 'extraordinary' person. In the background story settings of the first stage of the awakening of many professions, they all began to gradually move towards the extraordinary path, or rather, towards the path of becoming a god.
There was a post on the forums that Zhao Mingwei agreed with. Before the Awakening at level 50, Holy Spirits were still mortals. After the Awakening, Holy Spirits stepped onto the path to godhood in various ways.
But these were all unimportant background stories. They were just there to show how amazing the class was.
The problem was that Zhao Mingwei knew that this world was real, so … was the background story fake?
Was the roar of the Golden Thunder Tiger really just simulated by lines of code?
Zhao Mingwei wasn't sure himself, but he could control the Golden Thunder Tiger's movements with his mind. Every time the Golden Thunder Tiger swung its claws, it felt like Zhao Mingwei was punching the enemy in the face.
It was a strange feeling … He had seen other Qi Masters unleash their Awakened Golden Thunder Tigers. They could only jump a dozen times on the ground before exploding.
But the Golden Thunder Tiger under Zhao Mingwei's control wasn't just jumping. It was unleashing its rage.
The Golden Thunder Tiger wasn't unleashing its rage without reason. Every time it swung its claws, a Spell Stealer would be pinned to the ground.
The Spell Stealers on the Obsidian Path were between level 45 and level 50. They were all elite monsters, and there were 32 of them.
If it were a newbie player, it would take a team of five newbie players to kill one Spell Thief of this level. However, Zhao Mingwei was able to withstand the attacks of several Spell Thieves with his Awakening alone, leaving the rest to the members of the Leaping Core Guild.
Zhao Mingwei didn't hold back. After coming to Brandt Island, Freya had told him one thing.
"The power of the crystals on the island can drive people crazy. Kind Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, please purify those who suffer from the crystals. of the great God has bestowed upon you with the power of immortality. You of the great Holy God has bestowed you with the power. Mingwei will not take anyone's life. of of of of. of of of Of the Moon.
Zhao Mingwei didn't delve too deeply into the meaning of this sentence, but in the eyes of the players, these Spell Stealers were a group of elite humanoid monsters. Zhao Mingwei had probably killed more than a hundred million elite humanoid monsters in the game.
Moreover, Holy Spirit was a game that emphasized health and harmony. Zhao Mingwei hadn't seen any overly gory effects after playing for so long. If the game were to be put on a market rating, it would probably be rated at 15 +.
Therefore, Zhao Mingwei didn't show mercy just because his opponents had their own thoughts. He would go all out to kill any elite monster with a health bar. That was the only way to show respect to them.
After a Spell Stealer was torn into pieces by the Golden Thunder Tiger, the Golden Thunder Tiger pounced on another Spell Stealer.
To Zhao Mingwei's surprise … the Spell Stealer unleashed a skill called Qi Barrier.
The Golden Thunder Tiger pounced on the Qi Barrier with its claws, and a large number of cracks appeared on the transparent surface of the barrier.
"You're not the only one … who can master this power."
The Spell Stealer who had unleashed the Qi Barrier looked to be in his thirties. The ID above his head was Spell Stealer Ben Reggie. Every elite Spell Stealer here had their own name, not just an Elite Spell Stealer.
This made Zhao Mingwei even more certain that the Spell Stealer was a living person.
The Spell Stealer named Ben Reggie had about 150,000 HP left, but the Qi Barrier he unleashed was not to be underestimated.
When Zhao Mingwei's Golden Thunder Tiger smashed the Qi Barrier with its sharp claws, the shadow of a Dragon-Tiger appeared behind him and bit Zhao Mingwei's Golden Thunder Tiger.
"You Holy Spirits have so much power … but some of you don't even know how to use a sword. What can you do without these powers?" Ben Reggie seemed to have caught the astonished expression on Zhao Mingwei's face.
For a moment, Ben Reggie's Dragon-Tiger was able to contend against Zhao Mingwei's Golden Thunder Tiger. However, the price he had to pay was that his meridians had begun to rupture. Under the corrosion of the violent Qi Barrier, blood spurted out from both his arms.
Zhao Mingwei turned his head to look at Ye Linna, who was behind him. He wanted her to understand the danger of the power of Intent. What that Law Stealer called Ben Reggie said was right.
The power that Players mastered was just a shortcut key. There was no need for them to take any risks. On the other hand, Ye Lina was risking her life to cultivate the Qi Barrier.
The worry in Ye Lina's eyes wasn't the fear of the Qi Barrier. She was worried that Zhao Mingwei would lose.
Zhao Mingwei understood the emotion in Ye Lina's eyes. At this moment, the enemy's Dragon-Tiger let out another furious roar.
"Let's see if your Psychic Beast is stronger or the one I've just raised!" the Spell Stealer named Ben Reggie shouted at Zhao Mingwei.
"…"
Zhao Mingwei looked at the wounds all over his body that had ruptured due to the Qi Barrier and sighed softly.
These Spell Stealers might not die after their HP was emptied by the Sacred Spirits. However, this was not enough to stop these Spell Stealers from inflicting self-damage buffs on themselves.
Lightning flashed in Zhao Mingwei's eyes. His figure instantly disappeared in front of Ye Lina.
In the next second, Zhao Mingwei appeared behind Ben Reggie. When the Spell Stealer turned around and saw Zhao Mingwei, his smug expression turned into one of shock.
"What?!" Ben Reggie couldn't figure out how Zhao Mingwei appeared here.
"My Psychic Beast isn't the only power I've mastered."
As soon as Zhao Mingwei's voice trailed off, he punched the Spell Stealer's abdomen. An air-piercing sound erupted from his back.
Inch Punch!
A Level Five basic skill of the Grandmaster of Combat.
The Spell Stealer spat out a mouthful of warm blood. Just as he was about to retaliate with a punch, he was greeted with a side kick.
The Spell Stealer's body flew high into the air with only the Psychic Cannon in Zhao Mingwei's hand coming at him.
He adjusted his body in the air to block the Psychic Cannon, but what made him despair was that after the Psychic Cannon, Zhao Mingwei condensed a violent Psychic Power in his right hand and pushed it forward. A huge spiral Psychic Field was released. He felt like he had been thrown into a meat grinder, and it was the kind that operated at high speed.
However, Ben Reggie resisted it. Not only did he resist it, but he also used his Psychic Energy to interrupt Zhao Mingwei's spell.
"When it comes to fighting, you brats …" Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Zhao Mingwei's fist coming at him. Zhao Mingwei swung his fist and punched him in the face. It was a punch without any Psychic Energy. It was not from any skill, but just a normal attack.
However, this punch sent him flying, causing the Spell Stealer to fall to the ground and fall into a state where he could no longer get up.
Zhao Mingwei did not know if there was a combo system in the Holy Spirit, or if there was a system that could stun a humanoid monster by continuously hitting the head. However, Zhao Mingwei knew that in reality, hitting the head like that would definitely stun someone.
The key was that the Spell Stealer's body had been corroded by the Psychic Energy. It was time for him to calm down.
Ben Reggie fell to the ground. He had 50,000 HP left. Zhao Mingwei's combo had only shaved off less than 30,000 HP from his opponent. The remaining 70,000 HP was the result of Zhao Mingwei's Psychic Energy.
The vitality of the Spell Stealers was far stronger than that of ordinary humans. Ordinary human NPCs only had a maximum of 30,000 HP, and most of them only had 3,000 to 4,000 HP. Ordinary humans had about 500 to 600 HP, and the stronger ones could reach 100,000 HP. Only the top ones could reach 200,000 HP. Only those humans who had transcended the category of 'human' could possess the HP of Elite and Lord monsters.
The Spell Stealers were humans who had transcended the status of humans. This was probably the effect of the crystallized energy in their bodies.
The truly troublesome monsters were the Lord-tier dragons that inhabited this island. Their hard scales and crystallized armor could greatly reduce damage. What was troublesome about the Spell Stealers was that they were very agile and had very small targets. When new players fought with them, most of their skills would miss.
Just like the battle with the Lancers, some NPCs with rich combat techniques could easily toy with the Players. Ben Reggie was one of those NPCs with rich combat techniques. He had obviously fought against the Sacred Spirits before, and they were a bunch of newbie Players. On the other hand, in Zhao Mingwei's eyes, even if the Players had maxed out their levels and crafted their equipment perfectly, they were still newbies if their techniques weren't up to par.
That was why they looked down on the Holy Spirits. They believed that the power the Holy Spirits possessed did not match the strength of the Holy Spirits.
But unfortunately … the strength of every member of the Leaping Core Guild was … the real deal!
After Zhao Mingwei knocked out a suspected Lord-tier Spell Stealer, he looked around the battlefield. The Spell Stealers had begun to flee. The Leaping Core Guild's Clearers had a total of 72 people after the teleportation portal was built. Among them were members of the Abyss Temple.
Zhao Mingwei looked at Deng Xi on the other side. The moment he turned to look at Deng Xi, Mo Shigui's chest had already been pierced through by Deng Xi's longsword.
Mo Shigui's HP also fell to zero.
