Carson Flores's speculation had its reasons; after all, in a normal battle, one would injure the body first and then the Primordial Spirit.

However, the two were originally in a contest, and using certain methods or magical treasures with special functions during a battle was quite normal.
In a contest, what was at stake was the name of the Eight Great Powers, fighting for victory!
Who could say anything about what Leland Conley did?
The Flying Boat was returning at high speed, and as time slowly passed, the condition of Cora Tate, covered in Restorative Mud, stopped deteriorating and was slowly improving.
