In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed, and these children's hands were all mangled. The hands of children at the early and middle stages of the Mortal Realm, such as Xia Jianwu, were in a slightly better condition, but they had also turned a bluish-purple hue. As for the children at the initial stage of the Mortal Realm, their hands were in a far worse state, with many of them having torn skin and even bleeding, although they were all gritting their teeth and enduring the pain...
At this point, every strike the children made was met with intense stabbing pain. Xia Jianwu and the others had one thought on their mind, and that was that they must hold out until Xia Lalan arrived. As long as Xia Lalan came, this torment would stop, while Xia Jianping and the others continued to give it their all, seemingly unfazed by the pain on their palms.
Just then, a sharp rebuke suddenly pierced the distance...
"Stop it, all of you!"
