Shanyuan was defeated very straightforwardly and swiftly.
Under the gaze of hundreds of onlookers hoping to witness an intense battle, Zhou Heng used just one move to defeat Monk Shanyuan.
There was no toe-to-toe struggle, no surge of energy from heaven and earth, and none of the colorful lights often associated with Middle Third Rank warriors were present. None of the rumored phenomena occurred.
The whole process was simply Zhou Heng forming a hand seal, his eyes igniting with a golden light, and then Monk Shanyuan's face displayed an expression of pain and horror as he quickly knelt to the ground, drenched in cold sweat.
This situation had completely surpassed the understanding of the numerous pilgrims.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe that Master Shanyuan, who was known for his high martial arts prowess, capable of flying and disappearing at will, could be defeated so easily.
Inconceivable!
