The scene was a bit silent.
The situation on the light barrier was clear and understandable to everyone.
However, each person had their own interpretation.
The power of the Guardian Beast was beyond doubt; they had witnessed it being chosen and upgraded, forcing jannadrah to retreat.
Moreover, under the increased difficulty card, its strength had doubled.
Almost everyone believed that this was a place of no return once they reached the top, and the Guardian Beast was no longer something that the current human evolvers could contend with.
But… this woman holding a cat had actually resolved the battle in such a short time?
How long had it been?!
To what extent did one have to be strong?!
In their shock, those exceedingly excellent evolvers began to assess and judge the strength and type of the spirit woman.
The same was true for Cloud Summit; the vast majority could not discern anything, only knowing that the spirit woman was a psychic life form. However, everything that had just transpired had completely overturned their understanding of this type of evolved life.
After the spirit woman evolved to the ninth level, it seemed that the skills she used were no longer purely psychic!
"Still," Ye Zhongming explained the doubts in everyone’s hearts.
"Whether it’s her low murmurs, hums, or screams, they all manifest as psychic attacks. The black cat's cries are the same. The difference is that after reaching the ninth level, their power has ascended to a level we can’t fathom. If I’m not mistaken, those crystals should be a manifestation of psychic energy materialization."
In just a short time, Ye Zhongming observed the black cat and the spirit woman using at least eight skills, with five from the spirit woman and three from the black cat.
The black cat's cries, shadowy claws, and the final spinning impact.
The spirit woman's crystal assault, crystal blockade, crystal explosion, wound tearing, and the final skill that pulled out the Guardian Beast's soul.
Eight skills, seamlessly cooperating, almost completely suppressing the Guardian Beast without giving it a chance to fight back.
Of course, this didn’t mean they were truly that much stronger than the Guardian Beast, to the point of suppression. It was rather that psychic attacks were inherently bizarre; if one’s own psychic power wasn’t high enough or had a significant gap with the attacker, it would lead to a situation where one couldn’t utilize their abilities effectively.
It seemed that the Guardian Beast was entirely a physical combat type, not skilled in psychic power.
The spirit woman’s strength was shocking, and Ye Zhongming glanced at the quiet Red Hair beside him, eliciting a slight smile from this human puppet, who was already almost indistinguishable from a human.
"If you can suppress it, winning is easy. If you can’t, it’s fraught with dangers," Red Hair tilted her head. "I used the idiom correctly, right?"
Several high-ranking members of Cloud Summit around them chuckled, understanding Red Hair’s implication.
It was certain that the spirit woman was very powerful, but her strengths and weaknesses were too obvious. Once she encountered a life form capable of resisting her psychic attacks, her battle would not be so smooth and could easily fall into a tough situation.
The reason for saying this, rather than claiming that she would fail without advantages, was that the black cat also possessed psychic characteristics, but was equally outstanding in direct combat, excelling in agility. Very few life forms could keep up with its speed.
In summary, the spirit woman’s strengths and weaknesses were evident, but defeating her was also quite a challenging task.
However, Red Hair's statement implied that she had a bit of confidence.
Ye Zhongming couldn't help but glance at the quietly observing undead fish dragon, realizing that this fellow would also be at the ninth level upon waking and should directly enter the powerful ninth-level tier, having obtained a life legacy at the same level as the Holy Father.
