"In that case, I won't use my cultivation to suppress you all, and I won't use my elemental affinity." The main purpose of Kranos doing this was to deepen his swordsmanship skills along with how he used it with his time techniques. So, in this battle, he was going to fight them using just his sword techniques and time element.
Just as he expected, upon hearing Kranos's words, the eyes of the cultivators lit up. They felt this was their chance to finally defeat him, especially the lady who had asked the question; she felt she could finally put Kranos in his place!
"Go and rest, we will begin our training tomorrow." What these cultivators didn't know was that while cultivating, Kranos had also studied their fighting techniques, and he could roughly discern their thoughts now. There was no way Kranos would endanger himself and do something he wasn't confident in.
