The concerns of the muscular man were not without merit and other than the others at the same level as him, Shi Tian was an issue.
Everyone was secretly hiding and the reason for this was fear of running into any other quasi 13th stage combat power experts.
It was already enough that Do Zhun had taken this step, and even more scary, moved further along the path, someone like Shi Tian made them uncertain and preferred to stay hidden and observe the situation first.
This was also the reason that Qin Tan sat down and waited patiently, she was already able to see that things were not going to be easy.
Even though they were both at the 12th stage of combat power, their abilities were not on the same level. This is not strange in any way, after all the rankings on the prison floors were also based on combat power and the strongest individuals were mostly on the same stage but at different levels.
