Many spectators to the war between the Kaddar Treaty Organization and the Floating Sect could not help but feel surprised at the outcome of the battle.
Of course, this was merely the outcome of a battle containing around ten percent of all the forces at play, yet it showed that the guardians of the Floating Sect were not weak.
The Kaddar Treaty Organization was aware of the fact that the Floating Sect's guardians were elites among high-grade Martial Squires. After all, the process of becoming a guardian, and then maintaining it was grueling. It filtered out the cream of the crop and ensured that even weaker high-grade Martial Squires simply never had the ability to become guardians of the Floating Sect due to simply lacking the necessary resources.
Yet even then, the performance of the Floating Sect was jarringly impressive. The guardians were powerful enough to win against their Kaddar counterparts.
Especially the one that killed dozens of Martial Squires.
