Dewzai returned her gaze to Shirley, but she still held a frown behind her veil.
If she couldn't defeat Shirley's avatar from that attack, she knew she would be hard-pressed to defeat her main body. Going back, she couldn't even tell how such an avatar existed, as this also meant that her soul probably incorporated the soul essences of a Fire Phoenix and an Ice Phoenix.
She still couldn't understand how these two different entities fused together as it went against the laws of nature. Nevertheless, her eyes held a bright light of acknowledgment as she withdrew her Emperor-Tier aura.
However, her battle intent didn't seem to drop one bit.
"I admit I was wrong when I said you weren't worthy. If you still want to battle fairly, we'll have a go at it, or if you want to continue this battle, let's fight until one of us dies or uses an Escape Talisman."
Dewzai smiled behind her veil.
