"Hiss..."
Within the space shrouded in black mist.
Chen Lusi kept exchanging blows with Xia Panqiu.
Each exchange lasted only briefly.
Often less than a minute.
Chen Lusi would cover his injury and admit defeat.
His earlier assessment was correct; in actual combat, without using techniques, he was indeed no match for Xia Panqiu.
But still...
"Let's go again."
Chen Lusi rubbed his neck, once again standing in front of Xia Panqiu.
Precisely because he wasn't a match for Xia Panqiu, Chen Lusi became more determined... not to be just a pure mage.
Xia Panqiu wasn't even being serious.
If he encountered an enemy who focused solely on enhancing themselves without external techniques, he might be overpowered.
So, in any case, self-defense capabilities in close combat are necessary.
Xia Panqiu looked at Chen Lusi, who had stood back up, pursed her lips, and attacked again.
Even though Chen Lusi was still at a disadvantage.
He was making progress... significant progress.
