Mu Xiangtong and Zhou Nanwang's clash just now had seen both sides go all out, staking their lives on every move.
Victory and defeat were tantamount to life and death. To lose meant being smashed to pieces, with nothing but a dead end ahead.
Under such circumstances, even the prefectural governors who were Earth Grandmasters had not dared to rashly interfere.
Especially at the point where the two sides collided—it was practically a death zone, one even Heavenly Grandmasters would find difficult to enter.
Yet Zhou You had dared. Besides being certain that Zhou Nanwang would recognize him and coordinate with him at the crucial moment with a perfect, instantaneous match, he had also relied on the courage that came with exceptional skill.
Keen eyes and courage alone were not enough; strength was the most crucial link.
If Zhou You had only just entered the Human Grandmaster realm and had yet to stabilize his cultivation, the aftershocks he encountered merely by drawing near would have been enough to gravely injure him.
To insert himself into that battlefield, one had to at least be at the Human Grandmaster Peak, at a level that had already touched the threshold of Fist Intent and Fist Thought.
Back in the capital, before Zhou Nanwang had broken through to the Earth Grandmaster realm, he had been roughly on par with Zhou You now.
"It was all thanks to the Grandmaster's Marks!"
Zhou You answered modestly. Faint Fist Intent and Fist Thought lingered around him, and the residual Sword Qi from that move, Improper Etiquette, had yet to dissipate.
The fusion of three Grandmaster's Marks had not only helped him easily break through the Grandmaster Precipice; their immense accumulated power had also driven him steadily upward, without stopping at the early Human Grandmaster realm.
