The so-called Five-Eyed Demon King was the king among Big-Eye Monsters. He had five eyes and was much larger than ordinary Big-Eye Monsters.
Among the monsters of the otherworld, Big-Eye Monsters were not particularly powerful. There was not much difference in strength between their juvenile and adult forms.

In the battles around the imperial capital, all the main forces were currently defending the western and southern sides against attacks from mutated animals and Otherworldly Creatures. The fighting was extremely fierce.
Humanity had not only mages, but also internal energy experts and modern firearms. In the current battle, the imperial capital held a tremendous advantage. Unwilling to see the first wave of creatures they had sent out defeated so easily, the Otherworld Gods demanded that the temple find a solution.
The temple's many members came up with this scheme. They would exploit the fact that Big-Eye Monsters were level-one Otherworldly Creatures, tricking the imperial capital and the academy into underestimating them and sending out the academy's new generation of fighters and some teachers.

When the red beams from his five eyes converged in his central eye, the purple ray he fired could shatter the souls of Archmages below level five.
Fu Nian was only a level-three Archmage. There were more than twenty academy teachers and over four hundred students who had come with him. In other words, these people would have no problem defending against ordinary Spike
