This is just the outskirts of the Wild Thorn Plains, so the number of Black Beasts isn't actually considered large.
Of course, that's only in comparison to the depths of the Wild Thorn Plains. If you really think about it, even in the outskirts, the number of Black Beasts far exceeds that of the Martial Artists...
This is why many Martial Artists who roamed the Wild Thorn Plains in the past often found themselves outnumbered by Black Beasts. In truth, when it comes to the 'combative' level, the numbers of the Human Warriors simply aren't on the same level as the Black Beasts.
Not in terms of total numbers, but in terms of being able to 'contend'.
Even the weakest among the Black Beasts possesses combat power close to the Heaven Following Realm.
But what about the Martial Artists?
Forget the Heaven Following Realm, there are plenty even below the Heavenly Level.
In fact, the existence below the Heavenly Level truly constitutes the majority of the Human Race's numbers.
