At present, the dungeon with the highest difficulty rating within King of Pantheon was undoubtedly the Fifty-man Instance Dungeon located at Sky Island, the Wings of the Sky.

  Although there were a greater number of parties who could successfully pass the Wings of the Sky now, it still was not something that anybody could clear easily.

  Had the suggestion to clear the Fifty-man dungeon not come from Li Yi, plenty of people would have already started to swear.

  Even if a fifty-man party had attempted the dungeon, their lack of cooperation and damage would also cause the party’s annihilation. This was something that the major guilds like Fluttering Snow Alliance, Savage Tribe, Windcloud Clan, Little Drunk Cat, and plenty others have experienced.

  “Boss, don’t you think that sending ten people to clear it is ridiculous?”


  “Those who don’t wish to attempt it can state their objections now.”


  Nobody spoke a single word.

  Sending ten men to complete a fifty-man dungeon. Although no one was sure whether it was possible to complete the task, no one was willing to back down without trying.

  “The time limit’s three days! Failing is equal to forfeiting the trial! Move out!”


  Li Yi was the quickest to act. He had immediately used Teleport, and mounted Onyxia to fly up to Sky Island. Upon reaching the entrance of the Wings of the Sky, he entered it and called in his squad members via his Friend Summoning Tool.

  A while later, Zhang Yan, Sister Windcloud Nine, and the others were all pulled to Li Yi’s side.

  All ten members of the party were now accounted for.

  The scenery of the dungeon was that of Sky Island, and during the first stage, the players had to ride on flying mounts to do aerial combat with the Fire Winged One boss.

  Li Yi called out Onyxia yet again as, within this dungeon, all mounts that players summoned would be affected by the Winged Ruler’s Soul Curse, which would reduce the mount’s abilities and size.

  The originally gigantic Black Dragon Princess had now been reduced to a two-meter long small black dragon. Fortunately, she could still use her breath attacks.

  Sister Windcloud Nine had summoned a mount of her own, and she flew directly behind Li Yi.

  Sister Windcloud Nine’s mount was extremely eye-catching, as it was Skeletal Battle Dragon that had been reduced to around two meters in size as well.

  Out of all ten members within the party, Girl Without Underwear’s mount was the worst. It was a trashy, common flying mount, a yellow Repelling Wind Beast.

  When Underwear Girl Zhang Yan noticed the stylish-looking mounts of the other players and compared it to her own, she turned slightly red in embarrassment.

  Everyone had an innate sense of competitiveness, and Zhang Yan was no exception. Once she saw that her mount was inferior to the others, a storm began to stir in her heart.

  “Hmph! One day, I’ll get a mount that’s better than all of you guys’!” Zhang Yan muttered maliciously in her heart.

  “The first stage is easy. The Fire Winged One will unleash flame feather attacks, and when the battle begins, it will prevent us from approaching the Winged Ruler’s grave. Remember the sequence, everyone! All of us can only attack three times at most before pulling back! Sister Nine, put your Tuhr Sacred Sword away!”


  “Oh…… I-I’m sorry.”


  Tch—


  With a wave of her hand, the Tuhr Sacred Sword was tucked back into her backpack.

  “Each of us will attack three times before rotating. As an example, I’ll attack first, followed by Sister Nine, and Lil Girly Zhang here will be the third……”


  Zhang Yan raised her hand in objection. “I’m no girly, I’m your tea……”


  Zhang Yan turned beet red before she had even completed her words.

  She had originally chosen the name as a form of relaxation, as she had hoped that no one could identify as long as she kept a straight face. However, who would have expected her student, Li Yi, to see through her?

  “When the leader speaks, the members have to listen. Lil girl, if you so much as dare to object again, your big bro here will send you flying out of the dungeon, you understand?”


  Zhang Yan pointed her finger at Li Yi, she was so angry that she began to shake with rage. “You……”


  Lil Girl, brother, and the other derogatory terms had sent Zhang Yan’s temper flaring to the max.

  “Lil girl here will be the third to go, Son of Berserk will be the fourth, I’m Crazy for Beasts will be the fifth, and Violent Warrior 119 will be the sixth……”


  LI Yi patiently explained the process of the battle, and when she saw how serious he looked, Zhang Yan was forced to suppress her anger.

  “Remember, each of you can only attack three times at most. Even if someone dies, you must make sure to remember your sequence. You don’t need to care about the others.”


  “The moment the boss goes berserk, just try your best to dodge it. You can also run away if you want.”


  “Other than these, I don’t think there’s anything else to take note of. Does everyone understand?”


  “I don’t.” Sister Windcloud Nine timidly raised her hands.

  “Well, you don’t need to. You’ll perform the same whether you understand or not, anyways.” Li Yi made the decision for Sister Windcloud Nine before shifting his gaze back to Zhang Yan.

  Zhang Yan stated, “My mount’s the slowest. So, I’m not sure whether I’ll be able to escape if the boss chases me.”


  “Then would you like for me to lend you a mount?”


  “That’ll do! Wait, can mounts even be borrowed?”


  “Borrowed your *ss!”


  Li Yi glared viciously at her.

  Zhang Yan sent a fuming private message to Li Yi. “Li Yi, don’t you dare overstep your boundaries! I’m your teacher you know?!”


  “That was in the past, but now you’re a member of my squad. So, you either listen to me, or I’ll kick you out of the group!”


  Under the threat of being kicked out, Zhang Yan was forced to swallow down Li Yi’s bullying.

  Zhang Yan had only managed to enter Neo Platinum Hand because she had used a backdoor. As such, if she were to get kicked out now, she would undeniably lose all of her dignity.

  Li Yi shouted yet again, “Is there anyone who still doesn’t understand?”


  No one answered him.

  “Alright, then we’ll begin our battle in 1 minute. Start casting buffs!”


  A minute later, Li Yi fired an arrow in the direction of the Winged Ones’ Mother Tree, causing a flaming Winged One to shoot up the sky.

  The Fire Winged One, Taku, was the first boss of the Wings of the Sky. It had 1.5 billion HP, and it specialized in firing fire feathers.

  “Those who dare to interrupt the Winged Ruler’s slumber shall die!”


  Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

  With a shudder of its body, countless flaming feathers came hurtling towards Li Yi and his squad.

  The Fire Winged One’s element was fire, and if Li Yi were to use True Overlord Arrow or any other fire-based attacks, his damage would be halved.

  After firing three shots, Li Yi stopped attacking.

  For every hit that landed on the Fire Winged One, the player’s body would be afflicted by a burn effect from the boss’ Divine Spell, which would reduce the player’s HP slightly. Should the burn effect exceed three stacks, then the user’s body would burn for real, and the flames were inextinguishable.

  In order to prevent themselves from erupting in flames, the players’ best choice was to rotate their attacks, whereby players could only attack three times at most for each rotation. Once the burn effect on the players’ body had disappeared, they could restart the rotation all over again.

  After firing his three arrows, Li Yi howled, “Sister Nine, your turn!”


  “Alright!”


  Sister Windcloud Nine brandished her staff and fired a chain of Curse Balls, totaling fifteen or so of them.

  “Silly Swan, don’t you want to live?!”


  Li Yi chastised her.

  Each ball counted as a single attack, and when there were fifteen balls, it was equal to unleashing fifteen attacks. Should all of the balls land on the boss’ body, then even having ten lives would be unable to save her.

  Fortunately for Sister Windcloud Nine, her Curse Balls had run rampant, and not a single one had landed on the Fire Winged One. They had all missed……

  “Okay, it’s my turn!”


  Zhang Yan screamed out and used Charge to slam into the Fire Winged One’s body. Following that, she activated the signature skill of Violent Warriors, Three Part Slash.

  Slash! Slash! Slash!

  After unleashing the three strikes, Zhang Yan’s body had caught flames, and in a blink of an eye, she had become a fireball.

  Since the Charge had landed on her target, Zhang Yan already had one hit attributed to her. As such, upon the complete activation of Three Part Slash, Zhang Yan had sent out a total of four attacks.

  A mere ten seconds later, Zhang Yan had been burned to a crisp by the Fire Winged One’s flames……

  Once players died to the Fire Winged One, they could not even corpse run. The only choice that was available to them would be to resurrect at the temple.

  When players died in the Wings of the Sky’s dungeons, they would not lose EXP nor would they lose any equipment. However, the cost of resurrecting and repairing one’s equipment was unbelievably high.

  The resurrection had cost 30 Gold Coins, and though it was nothing significant to Li Yi, to Zhang Yan, it was quite a considerable sum.

  “Squad leader, will you reimburse the resurrection and repair fees?”


  Zhang Yan, who was in a soul-like state had yet to leave. She was constantly following Li Yi around and asking the same question over and over again.

  “Costs should be borne by one’s self!” Li Yi replied nonchalantly.

  “You’re kidding me, right? Each resurrection costs 30 Gold Coins, and coupled with the repair fees, my god! I need to pay 70+ Gold Coins each time I die……”


  “You can leave if you don’t like it.”


  “Remember, don’t you ever appear before me, otherwise……”


  In utter depression, Zhang Yan flew back to the temple. She had to bear the costs of resurrecting and repairing by herself.

  As for the other players, they continued to attack the boss, and after every three hits, they would swap players.

  With that, the players had completed the first rotation, and during the second rotation, Sister Windcloud Nine had finally learned her lesson. She no longer fired her shots randomly and had instead waited a moment after each shot. She would make sure that her first hit landed before firing the next one, and the next……

  Although the playstyle looked a bit stupid, it worked.

  The Fire Winged One squawked and squawked, and it fired its flaming feathers incessantly. However, the nine players practiced evasive maneuvers, and since the flaming feathers were not all that fast, it was actually quite easy to dodge them.

  The first stage of the Wings of the Sky was actually only considered an appetizer for the players. Despite its fearsome looks, the Fire Winged One was actually quite a subpar boss.

  During the initial dungeon runs of most parties, they had easily beaten the Fire Winged One without suffering any casualties. From this alone, it was clear at what level the Fire Winged One stood at.

  Every time the Fire Winged One was about to give chase, Li Yi would issue a warning to the party, telling them to evade it. As such, in a mere ten minutes later, the players’ flawless teamwork, and careful playstyle had brought the boss’ HP to below 30%.

  “Water Clone!”


  “Territory— Stinger Arrow!”


  Twenty-seven minutes and thirty-five seconds later, the Fire Winged One had been defeated!

  Li Yi shouted in the main Group Channel, “Report your results, everyone.”


  “Twenty-one minutes taken to defeat the Fire Winged One, Little Fluttering Snow Alliance!”


  “Twenty minutes taken to defeat the Fire Winged One, Windcloud Clan!”


  “We’re still fighting the first boss. We’re almost done though……”


  “We’ve already been annihilated twice, and we’re going in for our third try soon.”


  From the way the reports came in, it seemed that only a small number had managed to defeat the Fire Winged One, and most parties had been annihilated.

  Once the battle was completed, the now revived Zhang Yan had returned into the dungeon with her yellow Wind Repelling Beast. She was now tailing Li Yi silently.

  “Lil Missy Zhang, I have an extremely difficult task for you! I want you to loot the corpse!”


  Zhang Yan happily spurred ahead and attempted to loot the still burning corpse of the Fire Winged One.

  “Boom!”


  The Fire Winged One’s corpse burst into flames, and Zhang Yan was blown to pieces……
