Bewitching Ghoul!

The moment Guan Yutian saw its appearance, his expression changed drastically.

"Careful, it's a Bewitching-type Specter!"

"Don't stare at it for too long!"

The merchants and members of the training teams nearby were also briefly stunned.

The smiles on their faces grew even wider, as if they were watching a show unfold.

Their teams all had Starflash Realm experts, so they had nothing to fear.

Of course.

Those Starflash Realm experts had no intention of helping Razor.

They were all just there to watch.

Zhang Qing shook his head slightly.

By then, Guan Yutian had already charged forward.

Pusan and Feng Ze's arrows had begun to arrive.

But...

They missed!

Not even a single damage number appeared.

"The farther away you are, the harder it is to hit accurately!"

"Draw your blades!"

Guan Yutian shouted, sharing his experience.

As he spoke.

He brought his blade down.

The Bewitching Ghoul tried to dodge, but it was just a little too slow.

-38!

Zhang Qing seized the opportunity and rushed in to attack.

And right from the start, he unleashed the heavy-hitting Sky-Opening Slash!

Pfft...

A massive wound appeared.

Zhang Qing's slash nearly split the Bewitching Ghoul open from its left shoulder to its right abdomen.

Its flesh rolled back as blood sprayed everywhere!

-180!

Critical hit!

Bewitching Ghoul; 1537/1954!

Screech...

The Bewitching Ghoul let out a shrill cry!

Zhang Qing felt his head sway, and his vision went dark.

Damn it.

A mental attack!

No wonder it was a rare breed!

Bang!

-20!

Zhang Qing; 820/840!

Sure enough.

After using its group crowd control, the Bewitching Ghoul targeted Zhang Qing first.

Unfortunately.

It... hadn't eaten?

Twenty damage.

Was it scratching an itch?

At that moment.

The effects of Zhang Qing's Cultivation Technique reaching mastery were revealed.

Ox-Barbarian Strength's defense boosted Zhang Qing's overall defenses.

The Bewitching Ghoul could not hurt Zhang Qing at all!

Looking at the damage number above his head.

Zhang Qing really wanted to shout:

"That's it?"

But he held himself back in the end.

And retreated a few steps.

"You alright?"

Guan Yutian found time to ask.

"I'm fine. I can handle it!"

Zhang Qing replied, then charged forward with his blade again.

Against a Bewitching Ghoul.

They had to gang up on it!

Fighting one-on-one would put them at a disadvantage.

Ganging up on it meant bullying the Specter.

Even if this thing had special attacks and could inflict group crowd control.

It could not change the course of the battle.

Wounds appeared all over its body.

And damage numbers densely filled the air above its head.

-41!

-73!

-21!

-24!

-13!

Damn it.

Someone only dealt thirteen damage?

Zhang Qing glanced at Yuan Qi.

Are you fucking slacking off?

Yuan Qi did not notice Zhang Qing's gaze.

He continued attacking cautiously.

As a member of the Horse Clan, he was born with terrifying endurance.

Perhaps his burst damage really was a little lacking.

Zhang Qing only glanced at him once.

Then he focused on the Bewitching Ghoul's health bar.

He had to steal the final blow.

That was two attribute points!

Bewitching Ghoul; 645/1954!

Almost there.

Only one-third remained.

Suddenly.

Zhang Qing noticed several refugees at the edge of his vision preparing to slip into the city while Razor's people were fighting.

And the health bars above their heads read:

Guo Qi; 1200/1200!

Mu Nan; 1310/1310!

Qing Ta; 1220/1220!

Shi Qi; 1320/1320!

Four Specters.

They wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Moreover, as they moved, the crowd of refugees seemed to be growing restless.

Zhang Qing looked at the Bewitching Ghoul's health bar.

Then he made his decision.

He retreated explosively!

And charged into the group of four.

His blade rose and fell!

Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft...

-199!

-199!

-199!

-199!

Four heads fell to the ground!

Blood splattered everywhere.

"You dare fish in troubled waters? Die!"

Zhang Qing shouted at the refugees.

For a moment.

All the refugees were stunned into silence.

It was not that Zhang Qing refused to let them through.

If the crowd surged past, it would make stealing the final blow much harder.

Guan Yutian felt gratified by Zhang Qing's actions.

Little did he know that when Zhang Qing charged into the Bewitching Ghoul's battle, he had already changed positions!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

A bloody mist spread through the air.

Fallen Tooth Ghoul; 1001/1200!

Green Wood Ghoul; 1111/1310!

Blood-Eating Ghoul; 1021/1220!

Solid Eye Ghoul; 1421/1620!

Guan Yutian was nearly dumbfounded.

The people Zhang Qing had beheaded were all Specters!

Moreover.

After revealing their true forms, they began pouncing toward the team!

And the direction they charged toward.

Was Yuan Qi!

At that instant.

The Bewitching Ghoul timely unleashed another group crowd control attack.

-75!

-74!

-63!

-21!

Yuan Qi; 22/265!

In an instant.

Yuan Qi was critically wounded.

The attacks of the four Specters landed on him at the same time.

Combined with the Bewitching Ghoul's brief crowd control.

Yuan Qi took nearly the full force of the first three attacks.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough to block the fourth.

Otherwise.

He would be instantly killed!

"Yuan Qi!"

Zhang Qing shouted.

He charged straight over.

Helping Yuan Qi block the second wave of attacks from the four Specters.

But he still "accidentally" let Yuan Qi get grazed.

Along with the impact from Zhang Qing's charge—

-16!

-6!

Yuan Qi; 0/265!

Death!

Congratulations on killing Yuan Qi. Maximum Health +265!

Current Health; 1065/1105!

Heh!

Over a thousand health now!

"Zhang Qing, fuck you!" Guan Yutian cursed.

How many times had he said it?

Don't save teammates, don't save teammates!

Combat was extremely important.

Saving teammates could cause huge mistakes!

Zhang Qing's eyes reddened slightly.

Then he rammed straight into the Bewitching Ghoul!

Bewitching Ghoul; 174/1954!

Holy shit!

It was critically wounded!

Just a sliver of health left!

He'd almost missed it!

He traded blows and attacked furiously!

Damage numbers rapidly popped up above both their heads—

-63!

-19!

-71!

-21!

-40!

Bewitching Ghoul; 0/1954!

Congratulations on killing the Bewitching Ghoul. Attribute Points +2!

Finally.

Zhang Qing paid the price of 40 health points (-19, -21).

And killed it.

Gaining two Attribute Points.

Now.

Only four little scraps remained!

There were still four people on their side.

And they were all in pretty good condition.

After seeing the Bewitching Ghoul die, they pounced straight at the four Specters.

Zhang Qing's mind raced.

His eyes stayed fixed on their health bars.

After clearing the one he was fighting first.

He went to support Guan Yutian.

Then Pusan, and finally Feng Ze!

Cough, cough...

The support order was ranked by attack power.

That way, he could effectively ensure he landed the finishing blows.

Congratulations on killing the Fallen Tooth Ghoul. Attribute Points +1!

Congratulations on killing the Green Wood Ghoul. Attribute Points +1!

Congratulations on killing the Blood-Eating Ghoul. Attribute Points +1!

Congratulations on killing the Solid Eye Ghoul. Attribute Points +1!

Done!

All four Attribute Points were his.

Huff... huff...

They panted heavily.

This battle.

Had come suddenly.

And.

Yuan Qi had fallen in it.

It could hardly be called a great victory.
