HISS! These Turkic women are really strong...
In contrast, Li Wei focused on Ashina Galuo, his opponent. Facing such intensive attacks, Ashina Galuo's shield and scimitar blocked ninety percent of them; the remaining ten percent she evaded with agile movements. The flashes from her blade formed an impenetrable defense, her steps light and elusive, like a bird skimming across a lake's surface.
Li Wei imagined himself in Ashina Galuo's position. He was disappointed to realize that if he were the one facing the Mind Needles, he would last about twenty breaths at most. After that, his wrists would fail, and the Mind Needles would turn him into a hedgehog. His only option would be to endure the hits with his body, charge directly at Bian Chenpei, and attempt a life-for-a-life exchange. But that would inevitably trigger the Arena Restriction during the charge, and Bian Chenpei would be declared the winner prematurely.
