Wang Xian and Nangong Wu’s group worked together to wipe out waves of Soldier Rebels, with Wang Xian drawing them in and the Mages attacking with powerful spells. After more than a dozen rounds, Wang Xian reached level 40 and gained a new talent.

• Wang Xian repeated the process more than a dozen times, reached level 40, and gained a new talent.

After reaching level 40 and gaining the Forbidden talent Earth Emperor's Blessing, Wang Xian returned to fight the Soldier Rebels and encountered the Elite BOSS General Du Ao. Their battle began with Wang Xian discovering that the BOSS's armor protected its vulnerable area, and he used his healing skill to recover from its attacks.

• Wang Xian healed himself and taunted General Du Ao about having healing skills.

Wang Xian lured the boss away from its Priests so Nangong Wu, Su Jin, and Cheng Yao could attack them while he fought the boss alone. With Cheng Yao's healing keeping him alive, he pushed the boss down to 10% HP, but it suddenly healed for 200,000 and recovered to more than half.

• Cheng Yao identified the Western Dragon as the creature that had burned her to death and demanded revenge from Wang Xian.

• Simmons Carey entered a state of despair, doubling its physical and magic attack while halving its defense, then charged at Wang Xian.
