"It's Sect Master Xiao," someone shouted from below.
All eyes turned skyward, only to realize that Sect Master Xiao had, at some point, positioned himself in front of everyone.
With a flick of his right hand, the myriad of spiritual energy in the sky coalesced and formed a cyan protective shield, enveloping all those within.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zimei's attack arrived with a "boom," the explosion echoing through the void.
The entire expanse of heaven and earth seemed to sink into the void.
Xu Zimei, with his hands clasped and an interested look, observed the scene within the void.
Once the attack had ended, the protective shield around Sect Master Xiao also began to crack and shatter with a "crackling" sound.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, unharmed, and they all sat in mid-air, gasping for breath.
"That's enough, this sparring is over," Sect Master Xiao said calmly, with an indifferent gaze.
He glanced down at his right hand and was surprised to feel a bit numb.
