Although the Scarlet Bee Queen had a high rank, a rank that usually would be impossible to contend against with the strength of these experts, she did not command the force of a ninth layered Earth Saint.
The Scarlet Been Queen was used to being pampered by the many worker bees, and all she did throughout her life was to create more bees for the beehive.
She had never needed to battle before, and although she had some inherited abilities, she could not use them to the fullest, as she had no experience.
This was also the reason that they had not retreated yet.
If it were any other beast who was at the ninth layer of the Earth Saint rank, they would be slowly retreating. They would not have any plans of battling it out with the beast at all.
