Klaus was basically trashing the Savage King, considering that even after an hour and a half of battle, he couldn't gain the upper hand. Their battles, however, were chaotic as ever, with attacks from both sides much more harrowing than they made them look.
Klaus had already seen what he could do with just his sword, and that alone gave him the confidence he needed. The Savage King was strong, no doubt about that, but Klaus was no easy target.
After he became a Transcendent, numerous changes occurred to his body that he couldn't even describe.
Unlike when he became a Great Sage, this time, the changes were more about how much Star Qi he could channel...How much Star Qi can his body handle?
...the answer to that was a lot. He could channel quite a lot of energy into his attacks, and that alone showed he had already gone far ahead of what many could do.
