Know your place!
Although Hungry Tiger was shocked by the man in front of him, who could toss the Boss back with just basic skills and even control the Boss’ skills to aim at him, his eyes continued to be filled with contempt.
 

He did not use skills on a normal basis and did not learn many of them. However, each skill of his was rare and powerful—they were amazing ultimate skills. If normal players could only learn basic skills and elite players enhanced skills, then he was able to learn skills that were upgraded twice!
Skills like these could deal much more powerful damage and strength judgment.
 

Smack—
Hungry Tiger used Claw Attack on Harpy Queen. Immediately after, he used [Condensed Moonlight] to create a shield that canceled out the damage from Rapid Wind Bomb. Then, using [Savage Bite], he clamped down onto the Boss. With a swing of his tail and a loud smack, he once again tossed Harpy Queen towards Lin Jie. The speed was much faster than Lin Jie by a few times! This was the power of his enhanced skill.


 


Oh? Tail Swing?
Lin Jie’s eyes lit up. That move was similar to a Shield Specialist’s Shield Strike—it could send a target flying temporarily. The stronger the Strength, the further the target would fly. Hungry Tiger’s earlier series of actions were not just for show, but to build up power to throw the Boss at high speed.
Lin Jie had no fear facing the Harpy Queen that was flying over to him at a much higher speed. Using Rebel’s Fight along with Army Obliteration Quadruple attack, he reflected Harpy Queen back to Hungry Tiger!
 

Hungry Tiger did not back down and used Tail Swing to send the Boss back. As expected, he was proficient in using such techniques that required strength. There was no need for him to cast any skills to send a target flying. He was able to reflect the Boss directly. The Dark Gold Overlord was tossed around by those two crazy fellows like a rubber ball. They were extremely competitive, going all out to crush each other to death with the Boss!
In the midst of being used as a ball, the Boss’ health continued to decrease. She roared painfully but remained being hit around like a ping pong ball by the crazy people.
 

All until Hungry Tiger’s movement started to slow down. Seeing that the Boss was about to die in just a few Claw Attacks, wouldn’t this be too good of an opportunity to pass? Furthermore, Hungry Tiger was not very familiar with using skills. It was hard, and his Tail Swing barely counted as one. As they tossed the
ball
, the speed of the Boss was increasingly faster, such that Tail Swing’s cooldown was unable to keep up anymore.
 

Whoosh—
 

The Boss was beautifully tossed over at twice the speed by Lin Jie’s Anti-Slash, followed by Shield Cut. Hungry Tiger smirked coldly. He used Tail Swing, this time with a much lower force. He knew that after a Critical Hit, the Harpy Queen would be set in front of him and then killed by him… Hungry Tiger faced the Harpy Queen but missed. He brushed against the Harpy Queen’s face and collided with the Boss with a loud thump.

What?
Hungry Tiger was stunned. Looking at Lin Jie’s mischievous face, a horrifying thought popped up in his head. ‘Could it be he did it on purpose? Did he calculate the range of my Tail Swing and made the Harpy Queen land just outside of my attack’s range?’ However, he was an expert, as well. In the instant the Harpy Queen released her magic, he canceled transformation and flipped around.
 

Tiger King’s body was too big for him to flip around. After returning to his human form, Hungry Tiger used Bladefist and sent Harpy Queen flying high into the air. The Bladefist attacked her wings again and again, as he started a combo attack. Lin Jie could tell that this was Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes. However, without buffs, it was hard to tell if he could deal much damage.

Bu Yi first!



 


They’re coming!

 

Following Lin Jie’s call, Ocean’s Heart glowed, and Bu Yi appeared beside him. She had already finished the chant to cast [Holy Light of Forgiveness]. Holy Light of Forgiveness was a special skill of an Ascetic Priest, which was so powerful that it could heal the target back to full health in one shot, comparable to Lay on Hands.
 

However, only a few Priests would use this skill in the dungeon. This was because after using it, the Priest would pull aggro for 30 minutes. During this time, the Priest would be actively attacked by monsters no matter where, and their healing effect would be reduced by 50%. Using a skill like this in a dungeon would mess up the aggro-pull of the Boss, and could cause a team to be wiped out.
 

But now, it was the right time to use it! After Bu Yi used the Holy Light of Forgiveness on Lin Jie, the Harpy Queen immediately turned around and rushed towards Bu Yi. Hungry Tiger was not able to react in time to this change. He was happy in the midst of his combo attacks, and the monster disappeared!
Xuanyuan, Character, Energy Crystal!

 

Hungry Tiger roared, and Baili Xuanyuan then reacted. However, he did not have the strength anymore. After all, before he accumulated enough ability points, a Red Lotus Knight was no stronger than a normal Knight. He shouted anxiously,
Go snatch it!


Hehehe… Snatch what?
Baili Changcheng suddenly appeared beside him. It turned out that while Lin Jie and Hungry Tiger were fighting, Savage Blade had already closed in quietly, and was finally revealing themselves. At that moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke.
 

Lin Jie received Harpy Queen with his blade and used Clomaros’ Kill to kill the Boss without holding back. After hearing the system announcement of his first clear and reward, he put the news aside and charged towards Hungry Tiger without the time to even receive his battle rewards. This colossal fellow had whirlwinds spinning around his fists. It was Seven Spinning Slash. The whirlwinds restrained Lin Jie’s weapon and body, and Bladefist came crashing down.
 


You’re a piece of trash that has only mastered one move. Don’t you think you are an insult to your weapon?
Hungry Tiger sneered. He attacked with no mercy and sent his Bladefist towards Lin Jie’s eyes. His figure came crashing down on Lin Jie, but his actual attack landed on Lin Jie’s waist. This attack was supported by Seven Spinning Slash, Vanishing Step, and even Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes. Hungry Tiger was extremely skilled.
 


Holy Light Rejuvenation Potion!
Lin Jie immediately broke out of the whirlwind’s restraint and leaned back, dodging Bladefist. Broken Blade immediately flashed with lightning. It was Thunder Descent! The lightning whip struck out, and he used Army Obliteration, followed immediately with Shield Cut! This was not all. In the middle of his attacks, he cast Forward Charge. There was no escape of death for Hungry Tiger as long as he landed a Critical Hit!
 

Pssh! Pssh! Pssh!


 

All of the attacks from Broken Blade missed because of Vanishing Step. But in the next instant, Hungry Tiger’s real body suddenly stopped moving! It turned out that the Blade Aura from Shield Cut had dealt splash damage on Hungry Tiger’s body, causing him to be paralyzed.
 

The most powerful part of Thunder Descent was the paralysis effect. The target would be unable to move, use skills, or attack, and there were a few chances for it to be activated continuously. When Lin Jie attacked, he intentionally controlled the range, and it actually landed onto Hungry Tiger’s real body.
Seeing that Hungry Tiger was trapped, Lin Jie chased after his victory. He cast Dragon’s Roar and Dragon Armor Removal, which all landed perfectly.
 


You bstard who can only use skills!
Hungry Tiger was enraged. It seemed like he had no other choice but to use skills! He let out a roar and turned into a Moon Bear! This transformation skill was a few times more powerful than a normal Druid-transformation skill. The moment he transformed, he broke out of the crowd control, and his bear paw swung towards Lin Jie’s face.
Tear!
This was the Moon Bear’s special skill, which could cause a Bleeding effect.
Sea King Scaly Armor!
 

Ice Spirit Slash!
 

Lin Jie used 5 scales to block the damage. He then retaliated with Ice Spirit Slash to once again crowd-control him, and another series of skills followed suit.
 

Now, Lin Jie’s battling style had changed completely. If Lin Jie’s fight started off at a university level where each party schemed and fought with techniques, it had now progressed to an elementary school student fight where they battled with skills! However, Lin Jie’s control over his skills was very consistent. At all times, he would have an offensive skill and a crowd control skill ready to be used in between cooldown.


After transforming into the Moon Bear, Hungry Tiger was exhausted and unable to use skills. But Lin Jie did not let up his attacks and cast his skills the moment there was an opening. One after another, he suppressed Hungry Tiger with his skills.
 

Hungry Tiger’s bear-transformation increased his Defense by 160% and greatly raised his health points and recovery ability. If he were to turn back into his human form now, in that instant, he could be crowd controlled by Lin Jie and killed in one hit. Unfortunately for him, Hungry Tiger had top-tier techniques but was unable to use them. He could only take on Lin Jie’s attacks with his thick skin state from his bear transformation.
 


Demoralizing Shout!

 


Obliteration!

 

Hungry Tiger let out a low roar. The moment the soundwave was released, Lin Jie dodged it. As for the Obliteration skill, which attacked in a fan-like radius, Lin Jie had noticed Hungry Tiger’s hand movement earlier. One attack missed while the other was blocked.
When using a skill, a player would hide their hand movements. Lin Jie, this avid gamer, was a veteran, of course. For example, in the 1 second, which Ice Spirit Slash took for the blade to hit the ground and form an ice crystal, Lin Jie would hide it in his cloak, behind his back, the ground, and even in his previous attack to prevent his opponent from finding out.
 

On the other hand, Hungry Tiger, who did not understand the use of skills, did not have such schemes. ‘Didn’t you want to use an elementary school student’s way of fighting to land a blow? Okay, I’ll fight with you the same way then.’ However, Lin Jie had all sorts of scheming tricks up his sleeves. Hungry Tiger, in his bear form, fought Lin Jie
head-on
for half a day, yet Lin Jie did not lose a single drop of blood (The health healed was more than damage taken).
 


Meanwhile, his health points were slowly depleting.
 

Roar!


Hungry Tiger growled and used Obliteration once again. Lin Jie took caution and moved back to dodge the attack. Just as he was about to retaliate, he realized that Hungry Tiger turned into an ugly crow with a woosh. He retreated and stopped far away in midair, glaring angrily at Lin Jie.
 

Druid Skill, Night Crow Transformation!
 

The job Druid allowed for dozens of transformations and was difficult to play. In Lin Jie’s previous life, the most powerful Druid could transform 365 times in a single battle.
 

The difficulty of control for Druids was way too high. Once this job was badly played, it would purely become a mediocre piece of trash with low Attack, Endurance, and Defense. However, many people were still willing to play as Druids, all because of the skill Night Crow Transformation. It was the only skill that could allow players to fly, search for treasures in high places, and also escape from a battle.
 


Caw! Caw!
The night crow cried out before flapping its wings indignantly and flying afar. How could there still be contempt in Hungry Tiger? He was now entirely filled with rage and indignance. If he could grit his teeth now, they would be ground into powder. He was actually defeated by a normal player’s skills? How could he, who always had the mentality that
skills were for lowly people
, take this lying down?
 



Get people to back us up! Although there is the rule that we cannot participate in fights when we enter The New Age, they have the strongest equipment with them. The temptation of the Legendary Broken Blade will be so great that they will want to break this rule!
Hungry Tiger was scheming a plan.
Seems like I can’t draw up plans behind closed doors. Skills? Techniques? Hmph, although I lost this time, the benefits outweigh the losses. Skills, skills…

Lin Jie did not expect that his action to help his comrades regain their confidence had pushed for Hungry Tiger’s change.
 

Now, he was standing tall at the peak of Harpy’s Altar. Beside him, were the members of Savage Blade, who Baili Xuanyuan had chased away earlier on. They were all frowning and deep in thoughts.
 

In order to hide Hungry Tiger’s existence, Baili Xuanyuan did not send people over with fanfare to crush them with numbers. As such, they were surrounded by Savage Blade and forced to escape with random teleportation scrolls.
 


Actually… even if we did not master any top-tier techniques, we still won, right?
The first one to relax was Baili Changcheng.
Using skills and combinations, isn’t this the most important part of the game?

 

Domestic Fat Cattle nodded.
We can’t chase after the less important things. I’m a Mage, should I hit people with the goddamn staff just for the top-tier techniques? I’ve decided to properly train my skills’ level, and burn anyone with top-tier techniques to death in the future!

 


Every trade has its master. There’s no single technique that can dominate all in the game. We have our own fighting style. Once we raise our skills to the peak, we can beat any techniques.
Lin Jie was relieved. He smiled and said,
But, we still have to learn from others. What was that saying…?

 


Learn from foreigners to compete with foreigners.
Bu Yi followed up with a reminder.
 


Yeap, we’ll go back to the City of Light first. The monsters should be attacking the city now. We have to calm this storm quickly. Also, I don’t think that this Hungry Tiger is just by himself…
Lin Jie said as he took in a deep breath.
