Thud! Thud!
Under the pressure of the True Dragon and True Phoenix phantoms, more than half the experts on the platform turned deathly pale, their legs going weak. They collapsed onto the mirror surface, their eyes filled with nothing but boundless terror.
Mu Chen and Nine Nether were on an entirely different level from everyone else on the platform.
