The Shield of Gaia, Transcendent Garahar, and the Astral Sovereign, Transcendent Raizel, didn't look pleased at the very blatant provocation that the Fist of Fury had directed towards Rui, but they didn't speak a word to interfere. In truth, it was true that they had no reason to subject themselves to Rui's directions. They might have been willing to do it out of trust and goodwill, but not everybody had developed a relationship with Rui the way they had.
The Breathless Beauty and the Empress of End simply shifted their attention towards Rui with curiosity. They wanted to see how he would respond to such a challenge. If he attempted to placate or win over the Martial Transcendent by words, then it would indicate that he didn't possess confidence in his power. The same was true if he ceased any insistence that they adhere to his directions.
