King class was divided into nine different tiers. Becoming half-deified required a person to break through all nine tiers. A further barrier had to be surpassed before someone could become fully deified.
Instead of being recognized separately, these nine tiers were typically just grouped under King class, however. The power of a King's area-of-effect grew with each tier that was surpassed.
The blood kirin had completed all nine tiers; it was half-deified, after all. Prince Swordstar's guard was a half-deified elite, too.
"How dare you behave so poorly in front of a prince!" That half-deified guard made a cow's mooing sound. He then released a yellow king area, which overlapped with the blood kirin's blood area. The guard lifted the axe in his hand and ran forward to strike the blood kirin.
