"Though I couldn't tell what Master Tang Changsheng did just now, I could see that his finger strike was a feint—nothing but an Illusion Spell. He actually defeated Zhang Qiuping with a mental attack..."
Only after hearing this explanation did the disciples of Mysterious Light Island understand. Their fear of Tang Changsheng grew deeper.
