Xu Maogong, Su Dingfang, Li Cunxiao, and Luo Song were driven back.
Because Kira had been a little too ruthless.
After all, up to this point, they had never encountered anyone ruthless enough to make Abyss Legions self-destruct.
In truth, it was not that the other commanders were less ruthless than Kira. They were simply worried that the self-destructions would affect their own side.
Besides, self-destruction was a last-resort tactic.
Unless they had no other choice, basically no one would use it lightly.
Kira's situation was different from the others'.

Combined with Kira's own ability to manipulate energy, it was enough to control the direction in which the soldiers self-destructed.
Of course, he could only control the direction.
As for the power and timing of the explosions, those were beyond his control.
Secondly, Kira had his own methods for selecting legions.
He did not choose the strong ones, but rather certain specific races.
They had to possess fire attributes, with their energy concentrated in one location.
For example, Lava Demons had their energy dispersed throughout every part of their bodies.
