Chase and Adam looked at each other for a moment after hearing John's words, before they looked back at John.
"Haha, surely they won't just test combat strength...right?" Adam asked while laughing, but his laughter was clearly nervous laughter.
His combat strength was incredibly poor, and the only thing that bridged the gap for him were his formation disks that he could employ during combat. However, he had been studying and creating non-combat formation disks recently, and so his combat strength was most likely the lowest out of everyone here.
Chase on the other hand already had a cultivation at the early Meridian Forging Realm, which was the highest other than John. Despite the fact that he was a Pill Dao expert, his upbringing in the Bloodfiend Sect had honed his combat prowess as well, making him one of the strongest youths in the group of disciples.
