Only thirty seconds had passed.
The arriving Grandmasters immediately detected the mess in the room, as well as the corpse that appeared intact but had been split in two with a subtle movement, much like Yuan Shisan had been earlier.
"...His blade has grown stronger! It's even more powerful than the strike that killed Yuan Shisan."
"...Notify the higher-ups; we need a Grandmaster. Just the few of us can't pose a threat to this youngster, let alone capture him..."
This was the second Grandmaster to die at Wang Zhan's hands, and the second sacrifice on his path to greater strength.
Even though everyone refused to believe that this could happen to them, the still smooth, unmarked wall told them everything they needed to know.
A Wang Zhan wasn't frightening; a Wang Zhan who grew stronger with each fight was the one to fear.
