Yan possesses a head soul bone of extremely high quality, allowing him to sense Zhu Zhuqing's movements.
Zhu Zhuqing paid it no mind, continuing to cooperate with Xiao Wu, attacking Yan continuously under the support of Ning Rongrong, depleting his stamina and soul power.
Honestly, Zhu Zhuqing alone could defeat Yan, but as Yan is part of the golden generation of the Martial Soul Hall and there's quite a bit of interaction (tea, chess) between the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall and the head of Ming Lun Academy, Zhu Zhuqing felt the need to show some respect.
Xiao Wu didn't understand this reasoning, but knowing that Zhu Zhuqing wanted Yan to lose gracefully, she cooperated by holding back slightly each time to avoid causing harm to Yan's body.
