For Chi Xue and the others, it was crucial to determine whether all the Nine Nether Nether Soldiers could master the technique of combining Phantom Combo with archery. If they all could, then there would be no point in going out to capture these soldiers. There were millions of them, after all, and before Ling Tian's battle with the Lord of the Universe, Chi Xue and the others had captured only a tiny fraction.
In short, if the Lord of the Universe deliberately "trained" every Nine Nether Nether Soldier to combine Phantom Combo with archery, then Chi Xue and the others would have only one option: abandon the formation and use their speed to keep the soldiers at bay. After all, if millions of Nine Nether Nether Soldiers used the combined Phantom Combo and archery technique at once—no, they wouldn't even need that many. Just over a hundred thousand acting together would be enough to destroy the formation. Without its protection, Chi Xue and the others would have no choice but to flee.
Fortunately, although some of the Nine Nether Nether Soldiers who arrived later were proficient in combining Phantom Combo with archery—and there were clearly more of them than in the first group—not all of them had mastered the technique. In fact, fewer than one in a hundred had. This confirmed that not every Nine Nether Nether Soldier could "learn" it, which came as a great relief to Chi Xue and the others. It meant they still had a chance to capture every soldier that had mastered the technique.
Now that they had confirmed this, all Chi Xue and the others had to do was repeatedly go out and capture the Nine Nether Nether Soldiers proficient in combining Phantom Combo with archery. They might not be able to capture
