The six members of the signal flag battle group looked down at their bodies and found shallow knife marks on their defensive gear.
This was the result of the clash they had just endured; their attack had completely collapsed under the opponent's strike. If they hadn’t reacted quickly and retreated in time, they might have been sliced in half by that peculiar blade radiance!
The youths had just unleashed an attack using the sand dance skill—sharp radiance. Their sharpness value had increased to three hundred, and combined with the thirty percent enhancement from the team battle silk book, the attack power of the blade radiance alone was already close to four hundred! This value was only a little less than that of the Silken Puppet.
Moreover, these youths had just taken a break from the scorching flame combat technique! This secret realm technique might not have been used directly against opponents due to their short practice time, but it enhanced their own skills. In other words, this attack exceeded four hundred in sharpness!
Such attack power was absolutely insurmountable against opponents who were merely clad in silver-level armor. If they hadn’t recognized the situation quickly, it would have truly been a decisive blow.
“Don’t underestimate them!”
Zhao Jingcheng, who had always remained calm, could no longer keep quiet and loudly reminded his subordinates.
Upon hearing this, several members of the signal flag group understood that their boss wanted them to use the things they had prepared in advance.
Although they felt reluctant, believing they were forced to use their trump cards even if they won, and would not be able to lift their heads in front of some older kids, the attacks from the opponents left them with lingering fear. They no longer cared about their pride and each pulled out a vial of potion, tilting their heads back to drink it.
Then, together, they let out a howl toward the sky, their bodies beginning to undergo drastic changes.
“It’s Beast Transformation!”
Many people in the stands stood up, watching the six burly men below with expressions of astonishment.
“It’s half-beast transformation,” Guangyao remarked from the side, understanding the situation more clearly than the audience.
“Half-beast transformation?” Ye Zhongming had heard of beast transformation and had seen it before; in his past life, it wasn’t too rare. Some skills, potions, or even equipment possessed such abilities. However, he was unfamiliar with what half-beast transformation meant.
“It’s essentially an artificial injection created by studying the beast transformation serums produced by some roulette. The effects aren’t very good and come with significant side effects. I’ve heard the most severe side effect can prevent the user from returning to their human form, turning them into a monster and dying shortly thereafter,” Guangyao explained.
Ye Zhongming realized that in his past life, some beast transformation serums were indeed manufactured by humans, real human-made products, rather than concocted by professionals according to formulas. These potions had decent effects, and while there were side effects, they were within acceptable limits. Only some “death warrior” level potions exhibited the severe side effects that Guangyao mentioned. However, they were also incredibly potent, raising human physical attributes to terrifying levels.
It seemed that the current serums were still immature, hence the occurrence of half-beast transformation.
Indeed, the bodies of those people transformed into forms resembling bears, their physiques enlarged, skin sprouting glossy black-brown fur, eyes turning blood red, and sharp claws extending from their hands and feet, piercing through their gear.
The six men completed their beast transformation in the blink of an eye, crouching low, four limbs on the ground, and roaring as they charged toward the seven youths, their speed so fast that it was nearly impossible to track their movements.
