Just after they eliminated Gu Tianyu, Yue Wen's Dragon Might Perception Method abruptly detected two new gazes.
On a battlefield with so few people, Dragon Might truly was an excellent perception ability. Before his divine sense had even located the enemy, he had already noticed their scrutiny.

He could hardly blame Luo River City's think tank for that. Yue Wen's track record really was not very good. Only when facing opponents whose cultivation was below his own would he take the initiative to issue a challenge across levels and crush them head-on.
