Advancing to Ascension King! (1/3)

Zhou Heng was still at a disadvantage.

For if Bing Xinzhu truly stood at the same level as him, she would inevitably have been affected by his aura! He was a king among Martial Kings; unless one's realm surpassed his, even another Martial King would be affected, their combat power diminished!
