Enhancements and Adjustments​ (primarily aimed at strengthening underperforming characters, classes, and skills in terms of cultivation and combat effectiveness)

• Buffed: All units can no longer Dodge or Parry while under the weakness Stun state.

• Buffed: The extra deployment count of DongFang Li's【Lone Fierce Dragon】 changed from 8 to 2 (this feature had no extra deployment count in version 1.0.7; it is still a buff compared to the live branch).

• Buffed: When Night Crow appears or the [Evil Route] is entered, your sect can still continuously gain location income, and hunting will also refresh.

• Buffed: The damage of Allrounder's [Preemptive Strike] changed from [Attack × 2.5] to [Attack × 1 + Internal Damage equal to 15% of defender's current Health], and the target selection strategy changed from [Random] to [Prioritize the frontmost in the same row].
