The injury that Adam dealt the man that attacked him was unlikely to ever heal and even if it did, it would take quite a long time even for a cultivator, but none of them felt as though he had gone too far.

Cutting the biceps femoris tendon that was behind the knee is the same as crippling one's leg since it is responsible for movement at both the hip joint and knee joint, while Adam's cut was deep and was also causing him to lose a lot of blood.

Unless the man was able to calm down and receive urgent medical attention, the injury could ruin his entire future as a capable fighter and capability, and it was all because of his arrogance.

Adam even felt that he was being lenient and would have killed him if they weren't in the Martial Arts Union. It wasn't because of what he said or did, but because if the giant man's attack had landed on him and he was actually an early Advanced Cultivator, then the injury he would have suffered would have been worse.
