Hex Zui and Mu Ziqing were clearly not going to sit around and wait for death. Wang Meng didn't know what kind of preparations they were making, but he was also carefully preparing himself.
The results of Hex Zui and Mu Ziqing's battles were in, and it certainly wasn't good news.
Don't be fooled by Hex Zui and Mu Ziqing's usual, slightly snobbish behavior; their strength was nothing to scoff at. Anyone sent to the Cultivation Academy who managed to gain a firm foothold was no weakling. Their attitudes were entirely a product of their environment. However, this time, the Ten Thousand Demons Sect was far more prepared than the Holy Hall. In terms of overall Sect structure, the Holy Hall was indeed not as extreme as the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
Hex Zui and Mu Ziqing had one win and one loss, fighting the Ten Thousand Demons Sect to a draw. Hex Zui won but was severely injured. Mu Ziqing lost, and with it, his life.
