Ville was a bona fide 6th intermediate stage soul embryo realm cultivator, if he was paying attention and was alert for a soul attack, Ace might not even break past his defensive.
However, Ville completely regarded Peterson as a harmless junior who was only at the silver soul river cover realm, and he would never have dared to sneak attack him because it was virtually impossible to even break his defense as long as he wasn't in the same realm as him.
But Ace's soul-piercing bullet was a heavenly skill, and it had reached perfection rank, which made it quite scary for even an intermediate soul realm expert if used correctly.
Nevertheless, it was still only enough to give Ace a few second advantage over his opponent, and if he didn't deal with them within this small-time frame, the opponent will not fall for such a trick again.
