Ye Zhiyao's expression was brimming with confidence. Standing on the stage, she offered Luo Linlang a courteous fist-and-palm salute.
"Senior Sister Luo, we agreed to give this match our all. You'd better not hold back. I'll certainly do my best to defeat you with my own skill."
Luo Linlang, now aware of her malicious intent, was even more repulsed by this hypocritical display. With a cold sneer, she retorted, "The outcome is far from decided. You shouldn't be so overconfident!"
"Water Binding Technique! Go!"
Luo Linlang was known to have a gentle Water Spirit Root, but almost no one knew there was more to her than that.
She was born in a small fishing village by the sea and had saved a Merfolk in her youth. Later, when she faced a near-death situation, that same Merfolk gave her its Jue Pearl to save her life.
It was a known fact that while a Jue Pearl from a Merfolk could have miraculous effects on humans, it would only have adverse effects if not given willingly.
