In a fight, it's hard for two fists to match four hands. How could four people possibly defeat more than a dozen? So soon enough, Qing Feng and his group were defeated, all four of them severely injured.

"With just you bunch of trash, you dare to challenge us, King's World? You're courting death!"

King's Killing God, holding a dagger, approached the four with low health.

Qing Feng and his companions gritted their teeth, but deep down, they were terrified. All that awaited them was death.

Just then, a Warrior under King's Killing God hurriedly said, "Boss, someone's coming from over there!"

Turning around, they indeed saw a strangely dressed mage walking towards them from the end of the street.

Seeing this lone figure approaching, wearing a mage's hat, holding a magic staff, yet clad in armor, King's Killing God frowned slightly, "What the hell is this, a mage in armor?"

Beside him, the level 14 Warrior, "King's Divine Battle," expressed some concern, "Boss, that guy doesn't seem friendly! Maybe he's their teammate?"

King's Killing God glanced at Qing Feng and his group, then shifted his gaze to the approaching mage, dismissively saying, "So what? He's just here to give us another head!"

Hiding his ID and only showing the level 15 Beastmaster emblem, Zhang Yi held a Flame Staff and silently approached.

At this moment, the level 14 Warrior, King's Divine Battle, stepped out of formation and shouted at Zhang Yi, "What do you want?"

Zhang Yi didn't respond, just continued to approach.

Seeing that the other party didn't even bother to acknowledge him, King's Divine Battle was enraged, "Damn, just because you're a higher level, does a Beastmaster think he's so great?"

Behind him, King's Killing God calmly said to King's Divine Battle, "Can you handle it?"

"Of course!" King's Divine Battle replied, "Boss, don't you trust me? If I can't even kill a Beastmaster in novice gear, how can I call myself a professional player in King's World?"

Clearly, the only reason a mage could wear armor was that Zhang Yi's armor was below level 10 novice gear, as only novice gear has no class restrictions.

As a level 15 Beastmaster still wearing below level 10 novice gear, it was evident how poor the stats of this inherently low-growth Beastmaster could be.

Therefore, King's Divine Battle didn't take Zhang Yi, who was one level higher, seriously. With a "swish," he drew a silver longsword from his waist, pointed it at Zhang Yi, and sneered, "If you don't summon your demonic beast now, you won't even have the chance to fight!"

Zhang Yi finally spoke, casually uttering two words, "No need."

"Kid, you're dead!"

Zhang Yi's dismissive attitude completely infuriated King's Divine Battle, who charged at Zhang Yi with his longsword.

Meanwhile, the players of King's World and King's Killing God watched Zhang Yi with sympathetic eyes. To them, as a Beastmaster with the lowest attribute growth among the seven major classes in Apocalypse, and with low skill damage, Zhang Yi, still in below level 10 novice gear, was doomed once King's Divine Battle got close with a Charge Slash.

Even the four players previously targeted by King's World looked at Zhang Yi with worried eyes.

But to them, besides worry, there was more confusion.

The young Knight, Guan Yunzhang, around twenty-one or twenty-two, looked at Zhang Yi ahead with confusion, asking, "Who is he, and why is he helping us?"

"No idea!" The young Assassin, Liu Xuande, was also puzzled, turning to the slightly older Archer, Qing Feng, "Do you know him, Brother Feng?"

"If neither of you knows him, how would I?" Qing Feng pondered, "It seems like he has a grudge with King's World, not here for us."

After a pause, Qing Feng continued with concern, "But coming alone to face King's World, isn't that suicide? What is he thinking..."

"Yeah, and he's just a Beastmaster..." Guan Yunzhang sighed, "I thought he was some big shot, but it looks like he'll be taken out instantly. Let's have a moment of silence for this unknown brother."

Meanwhile, Zhang Yi quietly watched King's Divine Battle, who was getting closer to his attack range, with his staff already gathering magic.

Finally, King's Divine Battle stepped into Zhang Yi's effective attack range of 50 meters, confidently activating Charge Slash and rushing towards Zhang Yi.

Just as everyone thought Zhang Yi was doomed once King's Divine Battle got close, Zhang Yi swung his staff, casting a Fireball Spell.

Boom!

The scorching fireball struck King's Divine Battle from 40 meters away, instantly displaying a glaring red damage number above his head in the night—

-427!

Everyone, including King's Divine Battle himself, the players of King's World behind him, and Guan Yunzhang and his group, were all stunned.

King's Divine Battle, in his excitement, hadn't even noticed how much damage that Fireball Spell from the Beastmaster he underestimated had done. He continued charging at Zhang Yi.

Triggered by the Flame Staff's Burning talent, as King's Divine Battle approached, a burning damage of 115 points per second appeared above his head. Zhang Yi didn't follow up with another attack, just watched as King's Divine Battle quickly approached.

In the end, before reaching Zhang Yi, the accumulated 345 burning damage over 3 seconds emptied his health bar.

After running all that way, King's Divine Battle "thudded" to his knees before Zhang Yi, only to perform this grand gesture, not realizing what happened before turning into a beam of white light before Zhang Yi.

With just one Fireball Spell, a level 14 Warrior was... killed!

And because King's Divine Battle had maliciously attacked Guan Yunzhang and the others, turning his name gray, Zhang Yi's hidden ID didn't turn red or forcibly reveal after killing him.

Behind, the rest of the players from King's World were all dumbfounded.

"He... he got one-shot?"

"What the hell... what kind of damage is this!"

Guan Yunzhang and Liu Xuande, who thought Zhang Yi would be instantly killed, were utterly shocked.

"Oh my god... is this brother cheating? A single fireball dealing 400 damage??"
