"We have underestimated Wang Jian," the sect leader admitted, his voice grave. "His tactics, his foresight… they are far beyond what we anticipated."
Chu Yang, still reeling from the carnage he had witnessed, clenched his fists. "We must rebuild our forces," he declared, his eyes burning with determination. "We cannot afford to be caught unprepared again."
Chen Feng, ever the strategist, nodded in agreement. "We need to strengthen our defenses, improve our training methods, and gather more information about Wang Jian and his plans."
Lin Fei, his gaze distant, added, "We must also consider forging alliances with other sects. We cannot face this threat alone."
