Elders’ Adjudication Meeting

This time, Lin Shan's cultivation had broken through to the fourth tier Grandmaster Boundary after leaving isolated cultivation. Hence, he thought that the gap between him and Nangong Xuan had widened even more. 

However, it had never occurred to Lin Shan that he would end a battle in a tie with Nangong Xuan, whose cultivation was only at second tier Grandmaster Boundary. Nangong Xuan had even shown signs of suppressing him.

Although the battle was more of probing each other's differences rather than a life or death battle to the death, Lin Shan could not guarantee if Nangong Xuan had a trump card. 

Lin Shan was both furious and surprised to find that Nangong Xuan had advanced in leaps and bounds since his isolated cultivation. This gave him a feeling that things were developing out of his control.
