Having seen the true effect of the Hundred Fruit Brew, Shi Feng finally understood why Qing Shuang and the others had such high skill completion rates.
Unfortunately, the production of the Hundred Fruit Brew was far too small, and the number of experts it could cultivate was even fewer.
At most, it could only be used by those present — any more people and there simply wouldn't be enough.
For two or three solid minutes, the attacks came in a relentless storm.
Yi Jian Zhuifeng grew more alarmed with every exchange.
Aside from the opening Whirlwind Slash that had grazed Shi Feng, he hadn't managed to touch him even once.
Every time his greatsword seemed just moments away from striking Shi Feng's body, it always fell short by a hair's breadth. If it had happened a few or even a dozen times, he might have chalked it up to luck — but over a hundred attacks with the same result? That was no coincidence.
"What the hell is going on? Why can't I hit him?" Yi Jian Zhuifeng had never encountered anything like this.
In every fight and PK battle before, both sides always took damage — it was just a matter of who took more and who took less. The more skilled player naturally dealt more damage, and over time, that accumulated advantage led to victory.
But this kind of battle where he simply couldn't land a single hit was driving him insane.
"Is the gap really that huge?"
Yi Jian Zhuifeng had burned through every skill in his arsenal, giving it everything he had, yet he couldn't so much as graze the hem of Shi Feng's coat. The blow to his morale was enormous.
"Big Brother Ye Feng's evasion techniques are truly extraordinary. This is the first time I've seen evasion skills like these." The Oracle Qian Yue, captain of the third squad, watched with shining eyes, desperately trying to absorb the principles behind Shi Feng's dodging.
It wasn't just Qian Yue — every member of the group wore a grave expression, their eyes locked on Shi Feng's every movement. Several had even activated the recording function, capturing his combat on video.
"If I could learn even half of Brother Ye Feng's evasion skill, hunting down Leader monsters would be a walk in the park from now on." Bai Shi Lunhui sighed with emotion.
"Exactly. Leader monsters hit incredibly hard. If you could dodge even fifty percent of their attacks, the healing pressure would drop dramatically. Too bad nobody in our entire First District has reached that level." The female Priest Xi Lian was the most qualified to speak on the matter. She was the First Squad's main Priest, and every time the MT held the front line, their health plummeted as if they'd been drinking poison. Her healing hands could never stop — one slip and it was an OT. The pressure was beyond crushing.
"I have no idea how Brother Ye Feng learned these evasion techniques. If we could get every melee fighter in the squad to master them, our First District's Sanctuary would definitely advance to the next stage much faster." Qing Shuang saw not only how terrifying Shi Feng was, but also what it meant for the Sanctuary's future.
If the melee fighters could master these phantom-like techniques, the efficiency of collecting Soul Crystals from hunting Leader and Boss monsters in the wild would skyrocket by several levels. The Sanctuary's advancement speed would increase several times over, allowing them to catch up with the major Sanctuaries in other districts.
Their First District might be number one within the Evil Spirit Domain, but it was still only a medium-sized Sanctuary. Others hadn't even reached that scale. However, beyond the Evil Spirit Domain, in other domains, there were large Sanctuaries whose strength was several times greater than their own — to say nothing of their development speed. This gap would only keep widening.
"Captain Qing Shuang, isn't there some way to get Brother Ye Feng to join our First District?" Qing Niu, the Berserker captain of the First Squad, had been deeply shaken by Shi Feng's techniques as well. These skills completely overturned everything they knew about combat. If Ye Feng could join the First District and become a Sanctuary resident, it would be a massive boost for them all.
At Qing Niu's proposal, the other squad captains all turned to look at Qing Shuang.
"Oh, you guys." Qing Shuang gave a helpless, bitter smile. "I'd love to, but Brother Ye Feng is a lone wolf. You all know what that means, don't you?"
"What a shame." The others thought of the lone wolf lifestyle and couldn't help but shake their heads with sighs.
The Sanctuary was their home. Watching it grow stronger bit by bit filled them with genuine joy. But lone wolves simply didn't like being tied down.
