Several sea beasts revealed a glint of wisdom in their eyes and shook their heads faintly. "New to the sect?"
"Most likely. The sect's main roads are riddled with grand formations—who doesn't tread carefully? Yet this one walked straight in without even probing ahead. His cultivation must be quite formidable."
