"It was Master Ding Huan," Yi Zhenjiang explained, "he left the city. And he told me to hold off the Fierce Beasts' counterattack, then wait for his return."
"Ding Huan? The Master Ding Huan from Yujiang University?" Xing Baisen's eyes immediately lit up. Ding Huan was renowned.
"Yes, that's Master Ding Huan."
"So he just told you to hold your position? Until he returns?"
"Yes, Captain."
"Well, no wonder the Washing Blade Association is gone," said Xing Baisen. "Notify the whole troop, not a single beast from outside is allowed to enter Luoh River City."
...
When Ding Huan left, he didn't see any powerful Fierce Beasts. If he had seen any Genetic Beasts above third-level, he would have killed them on the spot before entering Qianluo Mountain.
Fierce Beasts below third-level could be held off by Luoh River City's defenses, but anything above that was dangerous.
Yet not seeing any high-level Fierce Beasts was even more peculiar to Ding Huan.
