Staggering back several meters to protect herself from Han Xuhan's follow-up strikes, she stood in silence for a few uncomfortable seconds, not quite able to believe it.
Han Xuhan, a martial artist whose martial cultivation had certainly not yet reached the peak of the second phase of the Physique Transformation Realm, had actually managed to put her at a disadvantage!
She had cultivated her body to the peak of the third phase long before becoming a disciple of the Crimson Snow Sect. As it was somewhat inconvenient to practice her family's private martial arts after coming here, she hadn't had the opportunity to break through to the fourth phase.
Still, there was a gap of one entire phase between the two of them. She could still rationalize it if this were a duel of Mystic Arts, where cultivation levels didn't necessarily determine victory.
But this was a mere exchange of brute strength and rudimentary martial techniques. How could he overpower her in this domain?
