He had surpassed the peak of Demigod Rank, yet had failed to reach God Rank!
So he was a pseudo-god!
That was why the level displayed by the system's perception was a string of question marks!
If the Beast King truly was this so-called pseudo-god, then everything made sense!
And with every speculation Purple voiced, the Beast King's expression grew uglier. By the time she brought up the term "pseudo-god," his expression had become utterly dreadful.
Seeing the Beast King's terrible expression, Purple's smile became even sweeter and more radiant.
"Looks like I was right..."
A smile also appeared on Wu Yan's face.
Just how powerful was a God Rank expert?...
At present, probably no one could answer that question anymore.
However, the gap between ranks was enormous, and the higher the rank, the greater the gap between them became.
As the pinnacle Level 100 God Rank, how much stronger it was than Demigod Rank was easy to imagine. At the very least, Wu Yan did not believe that he and Purple, two Demigod Rank experts who had not even reached the peak, could challenge a peak God Rank expert across ranks.
Therefore, Wu Yan had long decided that he and Purple would stall for time while Hinagiku, Mikoto, Ikaros, Astrea, and the others led the girls still transforming in the lake, along with the Misaka Sisters, away. He and Purple would then find another way to escape.
But if the Beast King was not a true God Rank expert, but merely a so-called pseudo-god, then perhaps they could find a weakness and defeat him.
Unfortunately, Wu Yan's hopes were a little too high.
