Constant attacks had drained both sides significantly. Seeing that the enemy could not immediately break through the protective barrier surrounding Lin Fei and Dog-Head Gold, Wu Anhe suggested that everyone take a moment to pause and replenish their energy.
They ceased their attacks, and the opposing side immediately followed suit. Both groups scrambled to recover their spiritual power and soul power on the spot.
The enemy felt that Lin Fei and his group of five were already trapped and had no hope of escape, so they were in no hurry to finish them off. Since they were now beasts in a cage, they could afford to wear them down slowly. Furthermore, the locking technique they had deployed—a form of soul barrier—completely sealed off this space. Nothing could get out, and no other squads could break in. With this, the bearded man and his two companions weren't worried about other squads taking advantage of the situation. Given that many squads outside were currently tearing each other apart, perhaps by the time they finished off Lin Fei’s team, there wouldn't be many rivals left. It would be ideal to lie low and wait until only one final squad remained.
