Zhaang Ye stood firm on a massive boulder, completely surrounded by a dense throng of Fierce Beasts.

They now closed in tightly around Zhaang Ye, launching a simultaneous assault with their sharp claws, gaping maws, and thick tails powerful enough to level mountains.
Zhaang Ye had been causing a commotion on the riverbed for so long that he had thoroughly provoked the Fierce Beasts. They rushed over in droves from dozens of miles around, furiously attacking him.
"Mountain-Breaking Slash!"
"Mountain-Breaking Slash!!"
"Cloud-Breaking Slash!"
"Cloud-Breaking Slash!!"
