contents We report a spectrum of exotic frequency-locked states in a ring of phase oscillators with pure three-body interactions. For identical oscillators, the system hosts a vast multiplicity of stable quantized frequency-locked states without phase coherence. Introducing frequency heterogeneity broadens each quantized level into a continuous band and drives an extreme second-order transition at $Δ_c$: below $Δ_c$ the entire population locks to a collective phase velocity; above $Δ_c$ a desynchronous state emerges, characterized by strongly localized bursts on a slowly varying background. This minimal model thus establishes a new paradigm for complex synchronization landscapes arising from higher-order interactions.
