To the geniuses from the outside world, this was a complete dimensionality reduction strike. Yet, once they engaged, they realized—what? How were they evenly matched? Some were even stronger than them! What was going on? Had they wasted all that time practicing with the Sun Stone for nothing? This made no sense! Was the current Hidden Dragon Ranking really this formidable?
The Beasts Camp had always prided itself on being the orthodoxy of the martial arts world. Experts on the Sabre Rankings, like Ye Fengtian, had repeatedly emphasized that the Dragon Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking of the martial arts world were nothing but rogue lists—amateur trash not worth a second glance. Consequently, they had initially harbored an inexplicable sense of superiority over the talents of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
But where was that superiority now? After trading blows like this, they had completely lost face. The reality was that it was a true stalemate. While the Hundred Beasts Physical Technique was strong, the mysterious technique used by their opponents was just as formidable. Everyone could see that this was no "amateur trash," but a genuine, orthodox physical technique—perhaps even more refined than their own.
