The atmosphere at the Jinmen Grand Tournament was heavy.
Under the weight of Ye Li's immense True Qi, the grandmasters present were like insects frozen in amber.
Even the peak Transforming Force practitioner, whose strength rivaled the Xiantian Realm's fifth transformation, could not break through Ye Li's restraints despite twisting all his strength into a single cord.

The Transforming Force practitioners felt the pressure around them in stunned disbelief. None had expected such an overwhelming defeat.
Battles between Transforming Force practitioners could overturn mountains and rivers.
A casual punch alone could blow the entire venue apart.
And a full-power strike from the strongest Transforming Force practitioner who had attacked could engulf almost half of Tianjin.
To keep the destruction from spreading too far, they had specifically invited several more Transforming Force practitioners to neutralize the fallout.
