At the end of the day, Mr. Klein was not a great combatant. He might be a Tier-3 Adventurer, but it was quite obvious that he hadn't been fighting in the Origin Expanse for years. He was rusty and his movements were sluggish. Lords like Taros and Tac Lec would have an easy time dealing with Mr. Klein – if not for his Armored Knight.
The Armored Knight was extremely strong at combat, and if not for 6-Star Extraction enhanced sixfold with 5-Star Enhancement, Michael would have had a much harder time dealing with the Manifestation-type Soultrait. Its combat prowess was at the Peak of the 2nd Tier, and on the verge of breaking to the 3rd Tier, after all!
Michael turned the tides of the battle against the Armored Knight after he inflicted a shallow injury to it with several enhanced Qi Sword blades. He overwhelmed its faint self-consciousness and drained its entire energy, pushing both the Armored Knight and Mr. Klein into a tricky position.
