The Daoist Sect had won two rounds in a row, which the Buddhist sect found hard to accept.
Especially after the second match, where Mahoraga lost to Daoist Equal to Heaven in a test of strength, which left the followers of Buddhism incredulous.
With a heart full of resentment, Mahoraga knew that had the table not restricted much of his power, he would have broken Daoist Equal to Heaven's wrist long ago. Daoist Equal to Heaven, of course, was aware of Mahoraga's terrifying physical strength. He would never have foolishly competed in strength against such a person if not for the rules of the literary duel and the Layered Wave Force. To lose would be bad enough, but certainly, others would treat him as a fool.
