"What rank is this mount, exactly?"
Masked Angel stared wide-eyed at the towering, ferocious Magic Flame Battle Tiger, unable to find words.
She had known beforehand that Zero Wing's guild possessed this Magic Flame Battle Tiger, but seeing it in person was still a staggering sight.
Bloodlust Style and Qilin both had Iron Rank mounts, but comparing them now made the gap painfully obvious.
They weren't even in the same league.
The Magic Flame Battle Tiger radiated an imposing pressure just standing there—pressure she had only ever felt from Leader-rank monsters.
"Could it be a Gold-grade mount?"
The question had already flashed through the minds of Masked Angel and her companions more than once.
Not even the great powers of the Divine Realm had a single Gold-grade mount. Mythril Rank was the ceiling at best.
And while the Magic Flame Battle Tiger was shocking enough, what truly stunned them was Shi Feng's level.
Right now, Shi Feng wasn't using the Demon Mask to disguise himself as Black Flame. He hadn't even hidden his level—a brief glance revealed he was already Level 42, a full two levels above both Bloodlust Style and Qilin.
That level had never been seen in any of the great empires, let alone a single kingdom.
It was almost impossible to imagine that such a powerhouse existed within a kingdom.
"I'm Night Fortress, an Honored Elder of Zero Wing. Our Guild Leader has urgent matters and couldn't come, so I'll be representing Zero Wing on her behalf." Shi Feng smiled as he sat atop the Magic Flame Battle Tiger, sweeping his gaze over Bloodlust Style and the others. "May I ask what brings you to Zero Wing?"
Even someone like Phoenix Rain, an Elementalist, had only reached Level 39. Yet among these six, two exceeded her level while the remaining four matched it. Without some special leveling method or a powerful team backing them, such a feat would have been utterly impossible.
These people were strangers to Waterfall Rose, but to Shi Feng, they were all too familiar—painfully so.
All six were black-listed players from a super guild among the dark guilds. Their guild was named Dark Crow.
Dark Crow had never appeared in the virtual gaming world before. It was a new guild established after the Divine Realm opened, and to this day it had no reputation to speak of.
Dark guilds inherently had far fewer members than normal guilds, but Dark Crow took it to an extreme. Fewer than a thousand members in the entire guild, and even after ten years of development, their numbers never exceeded three thousand.
Yet no one in the entire Divine Realm dared underestimate Dark Crow.
Dark Crow was one of the six great dark guilds of the Divine Realm. Its strength was tremendous—even super guilds were reluctant to provoke them.
These six people looked like ordinary players at first glance, but that was merely a disguise. Without high-level Observation skills, one would never notice anything off. The disguise was remarkably similar to the Demon Mask, capable of concealing even one's aura.
But under Shi Feng's Omniscient Eye, everything was laid bare.
"So much blood energy. How many players have these people killed?"
