Wu Pifu felt stifled with frustration.
The brawny man he had just killed would have been an exceptionally formidable Ascendant Body in the outside world. His strength would not have been inferior to the second-tier Ascendant Bodies of the Mountain and Sea Realm, perhaps even slightly surpassing them.
