"Underling Xuhan's move... shouldn't be possible to execute without a fairly advanced foundation in martial cultivation.
He's just a third-phase martial artist. So the only way he can possibly accomplish something like this is by utilising his vital energy. Won't he be accused of breaking the rules of the duel?"
Mu Ran's worries weren't unwarranted. Many in the audience, who shared Mu Ran's opinion, looked at the Elders on duty to judge the contest.
But even the Elders looked confused. All of them were frowning, as if they weren't certain whether Han Xuhan had just cheated or not.
Xuanyuan Zhou calmly asked Mu Ran, "What proof do you have that Han Xuhan broke the rule of not using vital energy?"
"Didn't I just explain?" Mu Ran looked puzzled. "At his level, a movement art so extreme cannot be executed without using vital energy."
"And what proof do you have of that assumption?" Xuanyuan Zhou replied in monotone.
"Have you comprehended every movement technique in the world?"
