Bai Xiaosheng's New Post; The Future of "Battle Through the Heavens"!

Yesterday, a well-known forum user, "Bai Xiaosheng," posted a guide.

The strategy post explained in detail his research on the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King, and why there has still been no first kill announcement for the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King after so long of operation in version 1.2.

In the strategy guide, the Bai Xiaosheng identified three key factors:

1. Fourth Order Thousand Beast King are mostly located deep in the mountains and forests, making them very difficult to find.

2. The stats of the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King make it extremely difficult for even high-star Da Dou Shi to deal any relatively effective damage.

3. AI!

Especially the Two Bamboo and third points.

Bai Xiaosheng spent seven thousand words to provide a detailed analysis.

Moreover, the Two Bamboo and third points are also closely related.

Previously, the main method for players to defeat the King of Beasts and the Thousand Beast King was to use a large number of players.

Even a top player like "Yang One-Blade," who was the best in Battle Through the Heavens, only managed to get the first kill on the second-tier King of Beasts in the launch version by having a large number of players in Cloud Frost City deplete most of the second-tier King of Beasts's health before finishing it off.

Therefore, large guilds have a very obvious advantage in tackling bosses.

However, this advantage is significantly weakened when facing Fourth-Order Magical Beast.

Tian Yao Company is now fully committed to operating Battle Through the Heavens. For the National Server alone, it has built thirty super servers and a deeply customized game AI called "Nüwa" with terrifying computing power that is beyond description.

Therefore, the "AI system" in Battle Through the Heavens is quite sophisticated.

It can even allocate AI computing power individually based on the identity, status, strength, and various circumstances of each NPC and monster!

This is why many players find that NPCs behave almost identically to ordinary people when interacting with them.

After Warcraft reaches Tier 4, the AI's computing power allocation also shows a significant improvement.

The most direct example is that when many players team up to fight monsters, some elite-level Tier Fourth-Order Magical Beast will choose to run away after being injured!

The wisdom of Fourth Order Thousand Beast King may still be inferior to that of humans, who possess thousands of years of cultural heritage.

But they definitely know how to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune!

If you can beat them, beat them mercilessly.

If you can't beat it, run! The first problem that any large guild faces when trying to kill Fourth Order Thousand Beast King Fourth Order Thousand Beast King is preventing it from escaping.

However, the absurd stats of the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King are something that no player can withstand at present!

When writing this section, Bai Xiaosheng specifically added a parenthetical note: (Except for Yang One-Blade!) However, Bai Xiaosheng's final statement in the post may be the true essence of this post:

This guide is intended to serve as a reminder to all players.

As a leading global gaming giant, Tian Yao Company dares to invest decades of accumulated experience into the game "Battle Through the Heavens".

The AI and underlying logic of Battle Through the Heavens are absolutely as close as possible to a realistic fantasy world.

We are now in the mid-to-late stages of version 1.2, and most players have already passed the initial adjustment period.

It is foreseeable that many strategies and ideas that were originally quite effective in traditional online games will gradually lose their effectiveness as versions are constantly updated.

The future goal of "Battle Through the Heavens" is undoubtedly to create a "fantasy world" that is incredibly realistic! This strategy guide has undoubtedly gained the approval of many players.

Of course, they also gained the approval of Jin Shankao and Ye Suifeng! At this moment, Jin Shankao and Ye Suifeng were leading eight of the guild's strongest core members from the Gama Holy City toward the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

Ye Suifeng said, "This Bai Xiaosheng is quite capable; his analysis is similar to ours."

Jin Shankao scoffed, "He can only analyze data from the panel; we're way ahead of him!"

The Hero King Manor discovered a Fourth Order Thousand Beast King somewhere in the Magical Beast Mountain Range about eight days ago (in-game time).

It took a whole day to kill all of the Thousand Beast King's underlings in the region.

It takes time for monsters to respawn.

So Jin Shankao only rested for one day, and the next day he led all the players of the Hero King Manor to go again.

After arriving in Gama Holy City, the Hero King Manor experienced excellent development.

Since most players who can directly reach the Gama Holy City in the current version have accumulated high contribution points among the NPC factions in various cities of the Jia Ma Empire.

These types of players are at the forefront of the game, with levels and equipment far exceeding those of the mainstream top-tier players.

The benefits at the Hero King Manor Fu are quite good, which is why many players want to join.

Jin Shankao raised the recruitment threshold, and after a period of development, the number of players in the Hero King Manor has reached nearly 800!

Moreover, their levels are mostly above Four-Star Great Fighter! An absolutely elite force! Furthermore, Jin Shankao has now broken through to the Dou Ling level.

Ye Suifeng, relying on the cultivation technique he inherited at the end of the previous version, focused on developing in the Misty Cloud Sect. Not only did he reach the level of Two-Star Dou Ling, but his various Dou Technique and equipment were also completely renewed.

They even managed to get their hands on Fourth Order Beast Wind!

Ye Suifeng was so arrogant that he felt he could fight Yang Shan for three hundred rounds the next time he met Yang Shan!

With two powerful Dou Ling restraining them, plus various poisons, props, and nearly eight hundred high-level Da Dou Shi continuously bombarding them with Dou Qi, they were able to withstand the pressure.

Even a powerful Fourth Order Thousand Beast King would only face certain death! However, the Hero King Manor's siege operation did not go smoothly.

They surrounded and attacked three times, and each time, just as they were about to surround him, the Thousand Beast King managed to fight his way out and escape.

After continuous analysis and summarization, Jin Shankao up with a strategy: to wear them down in batches! Only twenty people were dispatched each time, and they prepared their strongest burst damage methods in advance, launching a death charge against the Thousand Beast King regardless of the cost! Although the monsters were Constitution strong, they would gradually recover their health over time.

However, this recovery speed is definitely not keeping up with the wave after wave of attacks from the players of the Hero King Manor.

Although this strategy comes at a high cost, basically equivalent to the entire guild losing one star level.

But for the first kill of the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King, it was all worth it! Jin Shankao clenched his fists:

"This time, our Hero King Manor will become the only guild besides Yang Shan to have Global Announcement! We will be famous throughout the entire server!"

[Ding! Global Announcement: Congratulations to player "Yang Shan" for achieving the first kill of the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King! Rewards: +5 Free Spiritual Root, +20 Meridians, +4 Comprehension, +4 Good Fortune!]

Jin Shankao: "You son of a bitch! Damn it!"

Ye Suifeng was also completely bewildered:

"No, why is it him again? This doesn't make sense!"

Ye Suifeng is very confident in his current combat strength.

He believed that even if Yang Shan was still stronger than him, his strength should be limited.

It's true that Yang Shan started a virtual entertainment company, but he didn't actually establish a guild; he simply signed some powerful players.

So far, only two Top Player, Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng, have been revealed.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, Yang Shan could at most have taken Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng with him to fight.

Three players can take on eight hundred people from the Hero King Manor? What kind of fantasy joke is this? Ye Suifeng: "Boss, what do we do? Should we still fight the Thousand Beast King?"

Jin Shankao a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Damn it, most of the guild's players have already lost a star. The cost is too high. Even without Global Announcement, we have to use the drop of the Thousand Beast King to stop the losses!"

Jin Shankao opened the chat window, intending to seek advice from Yang Shan.

After all, they have had a lot of business dealings, so Yang Shan should be able to share some strategies and tips.

After chatting for a while, Yang Shan gave a reply, "Gold Elder, if you don't mind, I'll have Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng come over."

Jin Shankao, "You think we can't handle this?"

Yang Shan: "I saw the Thousand Beast King panel you posted. You will definitely have to face the Thousand Beast King's secret techniques. Even if Ye Suifeng can dodge, you probably can't. As for the other eight Nine-Star Great Fighter, to be honest, they are useless."

"Although the Thousand Beast King only has 40% health left, if you can't kill it in one round, it's very likely that the Thousand Beast King will escape."

Jin Shankao and replied:

How much is the transfer fee?

Yang Shan: "We're old acquaintances, there's no need for appearance fees. Let's just do it based on kill contribution. If you drop something, just pay them back."

Jin Shankao, "Alright, thank you very much, Brother Yang!"

Yang Shan: "Gold Elder, you're too kind. Let's have dinner together sometime!"

After turning off Jin Shankao's message, Yang Shan immediately tagged Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng in the group chat. "Earned some extra money!"

Fourth Order Thousand Beast King is extremely difficult to find at this stage.

Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

Of course, even if they found it, the two of them couldn't handle it.

But now the Hero King Manor wants to conquer the boss, so go and try to get some freebies and rake in tens or hundreds of thousands.

What a wonderful thing! Yang Shan will also get 10% of their profits.

This is wonderful! Chao Bafang: "Okay! Great God, we'll go right away!"

Zhu Tianpeng: "I was so worried about finding monsters, I was almost sick of farming elite monsters, but finally a big fish has come!"

Su Yitang: "Mmm, extra money! Extra money for Fourth Order Thousand Beast King, I really want to do that too."

Zhu Tianpeng: "Su Meinu, how about we switch places? I'll go to the Black-Corner Region? You followed the Great God, and the two of you cleared the Fourth Order Thousand Beast King. Didn't you earn more than the two of us?"

Su Yitang: "No way! I killed him with my own strength!"

Yang Shan casually took a screenshot of his kill information and posted it to the group chat.

Chao Bafang: "Huh? How come you only have a 32% contribution rate, Great God?"

Yang Shan: "Su Yitang 68%, so of course I only have 32%."

Chao Bafang: "What? What? I don't believe it! Is Lady Su already stronger than you?"

Zhu Tianpeng: "Brother Yang, you didn't deliberately Photoshop the numbers, did you?"

Yang Shan: "What the hell are you talking about? Although the kill was a bit unexpected, Su Yitang's combat power is indeed much higher than yours. I'm sending you the screenshot to provoke you!"

Chao Bafang: "Right now I just want to know, what are Great God chances of winning if you have a one-on-one fight with Su Yitang?"

Su Yitang: "Chao Bafang, you're a bit silly. What's our boss's nickname?"

To Chao Bafang: "Yang One-Blade!"

Yang Shan: "Chao Bafang, you're out of bonuses this month!"

Zhu Tianpeng: "Hahahaha, Ba Fang, you're really going to make me laugh to death!"

Su Yitang: "To correct you, the boss's nickname is ' Blade Sovereign,' so of course he only needs one cut to cut me."

Su Yitang's statement didn't actually praise Yang Shan much.

Movement Dou Technique are extremely valuable, and Su Yitang's current movement technique is a Profound Tier Low Grade movement technique with Purple Word Seal.

It's a notch below Yang Shan's "Thunder Spirit Flash".

Most importantly, Thunder Spirit Flash provides an extremely high speed boost for a short period of time, and also has additional damage bonuses.

Su Yitang's strongest technique right now, the Earth-tier Low-grade Dou Technique "Wind Zenith Sound," theoretically could instantly kill Yang Shan.

However, this move requires a lot of preparation time.

That's enough for Yang Shan to kill her ten times over! So if a real fight breaks out, if Yang Shan really wants to show off, he could actually stack seven layers of sword energy and then kill Su Yitang instantly with one strike! After closing the chat window, Su Yitang asked, "Boss, what's the next step?"

Yang Shan: "What are your thoughts?"

Su Yitang felt that Yang Shan was a really good boss who respected his employees' ideas.

Yang Shan simply felt that he should try not to interfere with the plans of those who value their employees, so as not to cause too much disruption to their development.

Of course, if it's determined to be good interference, then Yang Shan will naturally speak up.

Just like Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng, they can be left to fend for themselves in Gama Holy City. Occasionally, they can be given some extra money to earn.

Su Yitang: "I don't have any plans for now. I'll probably just stay at Rakshasa Gate for now. As for the Jia Nan Academy, we'll see how things go. Maybe I'll go, maybe I won't. I just feel like academy life isn't really my thing."

Yang Shan: "Well, that's alright. I was planning to spend some time in the Black-Corner Region anyway."

Su Yitang's eyes lit up. "Then I can hitch a ride with the boss again!"

Yang Shan: "You better really mean you were just hitchhiking."

Su Yitang covered her forehead:

"Ugh, I hate days when I understand everything in a second."

Yang Shan: "You must watch a lot of lewd stuff usually, right?"

Su Yitang: "No, I just surfed the internet too much. Sigh, actually I'm still a pure and innocent girl."

Yang Shan: "Let's talk as we walk back to Rakshasa City."

Su Yitang: "Hmm? Boss, you're going to Rakshasa City too?"

Yang Shan: "Well, if we stay in Rakshasa City for a while, we might meet someone."

Su Yitang feigned anger. "Who is it? Such a big shot, making our boss wait so long!"

Yang Shan: "Xiao Xun'er".

Su Yitang: "."

Yang Shan went to Rakshasa City for two reasons.

One reason is that the Bloodshed Hall Tower Master will be visiting the branch in Rakshasa City soon.

Another reason is that Su Yitang is currently mainly focused on farming resources from the Rakshasa Gate.

Therefore, Yang Shan told Xiao Xun'er about this before leaving Jia Nan Academy.

If Xiao Xun'er needs anything recently, she can come to Rakshasa City to find him.

But it's just a thought.

As for what Xiao Xun'er will do, only she herself knows.

Yang Shan could only do what he was capable of doing.

If Xiao Xun'er still hasn't arrived by the end of version 1.2, Yang Shan will choose to visit Xiao Xun'er in the Inner Courtyard before setting off back to the Jia Ma Empire.

Towards the end of version 1.2, Azure Cloud Association fully exposed.

The top powers of the Jia Ma Empire will officially go to war with the Azure Cloud Association.

At that time, all branches of the Azure Cloud Association will be attacked by players.

Yang Shan's Soul Strength has now reached the Mortal Realm Perfection.

It is foreseeable that the large number of casualties will greatly increase the Azure Cloud Association's efficiency in collecting souls! Yang Shan is determined to Soul Accumulation Pearl!

If you can raise your Soul Strength to the Spirit Realm in this version, it will be extremely helpful for your future development.

Back at Rakshasa Gate, Su Yitang carried the plastic human head to turn in the quest.

Yang Shan no longer needs the plastic head.

He is now not only a top assassin of the Bloodshed Hall, but also a prospective Soul Envoy of the Soul Hall!

The soul within the token is the best proof of the kill.

Inside the Rakshasa City branch, Luo Xie was processing personnel data from this period.

As an assassin organization, the Bloodshed Hall suffers an extremely high casualty rate.

Especially recently, the conflicts between various forces in the Black-Corner Region have intensified, resulting in a large number of orders for the Bloodshed Hall, which has also led to the deaths of many members during missions.

Several Gold Killer even perished because of this!

Given the above situation, Yang Shan felt that he could take on more assassination missions recently! Luo Xie suddenly raised his head, looked at Yang Shan's figure, and smiled:

"Hey, Cheng E, long time no see!"
