The issue with this private post station was discerned only by those few martial artists with relatively high skills. The rest were just ordinary disciples, with mediocre martial skills and average vision. The extent of their insight was severely limited. Their attention, at most, was focused on the idea that "the shopkeeper actually has such skill," while the hidden matters behind it remained unexplored.
For instance, whether there was a stronger force behind the shopkeeper.
Or, what attitude this expert had towards them, friend or foe.
The only ones who were truly shocked were the two young men who had come earlier, who broke out in a cold sweat, feeling relieved that they hadn't attacked the station keeper out of annoyance. With the martial skills the keeper had just displayed, would they still be alive now?
Meanwhile, Mei Feng and several others maintained extremely composed expressions.
Though they had become vigilant inside, they showed not a trace of fear.
