Lu Ye's squad consisted of five people, and the Qin family's squad also consisted of five. Not only were their numbers equal, but even their cultivation configurations were the same.
It's not that both sides didn't want to assemble a better team; they simply didn't have enough manpower. The whole Hundred Peaks Mountain range was extremely vast, and squads like the one Lu Ye was in were numerous, each one responsible for a different area.
In less than half the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, four out of the five people in the squad were dead, leaving only the last Level 4 cultivator desperately fleeing for his life.
