Biscuit's full-force straight punch, and Kanzai's Enhancer uppercut aimed at the opening beneath Liu Yin's armpit...
Neither managed to inflict any effective damage on Liu Yin.
Physical strength was not the key. Their Manifestation Aura simply was not on the same level.
To force an analogy, the difference in their Manifestation Aura was like a beginner's "Ten" facing an expert's "Ken"—a massive gap visible to the naked eye...
Even so, with his teammates' cooperation, Moyu successfully seized the opening Liu Yin exposed when attacking and drew blood from him with a single slash.
From that moment onward—
