It seems like I've stumbled upon something significant, Wang Linchi thought, quickly finding a clue after searching the Thunder Monkey King's corpse.
The remnants of the Hundred Beast Sect have been preserving their heritage using the Secret Realm system.
Wang Linchi's tone was displeased; he no longer referred to the remaining members of the Hundred Beast Sect as survivors, but blatantly called them remnants.
Quite a few Beast King Species are likely former members of the Hundred Beast Sect, possibly Elders or Deacons.
They found a way to strip themselves of their identities and become Beast King Species, thus escaping the Court's crackdown while retaining their Awakener abilities.
They certainly have their drawbacks, most likely needing certain blood sacrifices. The disciples they've indoctrinated from the outside are then manipulated to bring these blood sacrifices into this place.
Giving a Defense Map to a Beast King Species implies that the person is delivering a meal.
