Chapter 1594 -s 1542-1543: The Magic Sword of Universal Combat Technique
In such a situation, even though Wan Fayi was rated as having four-star combat power and his opponent had three and a half stars, he still dared not be careless, as this didn’t mean he was guaranteed to defeat Mo Yang,
for there was too much uncertainty. Without having actually engaged in combat, no one knew what condition the other was in or whether they could wield their true strength or even surge to greater heights.
There had also been instances where fighters with lower stars had defeated those with higher combat power—and not just a few.
To put it bluntly, combat power is merely a reference and should not be taken too seriously, for if mere combat power were effective, no one would need to fight; a simple comparison of powers would suffice.
If one only considered Realm as an indication of combat ability, would not the Supreme Overlords stand absolutely no chance against a True Immortal? How then could the storied feats of a Supreme Overlord defeating a True Immortal occur?
Thus, in such circumstances, when the two meet on a narrow path, with not too great a difference in combat power to completely crush the other, both are cautious, reluctant to make the first move, creating an atmosphere of mutual deterrence.
However, for such a situation, if no external forces were to interfere, it wouldn’t last long, given the vastness of the Myriad Laws Realm. Since they had encountered such formidable opponents, even if they did not speak of killing each other to snatch points, it was still a good opportunity to gauge the other’s strength.
Upon recognizing each other, a silence fell without any words spoken. The moment their gazes met, both saw the eager desire for battle in the other’s eyes.
Regardless of their identities, they were at heart true cultivators; in this situation, though neither was sure of victory nor thought it the right time for a life-and-death battle, to walk away without fighting would be an immense regret.
"Boom!"
