Ye Jian didn't know that she got second place. She only knew that if she didn't swim with all her might, she might not be able to be rescued if she reached the bottom.
If she wanted to survive and not suffocate in the water, there was no other way.
At the same time, she also had to thank Demon King Li for showing mercy and not letting them swim in the seaweed-filled seawater. Otherwise, it would be even more dangerous!
When she finally managed to get out of the water and breathed heavily, Ye Jian felt as though she had just escaped death. This was the first time she felt this way after years of training.
When she fell into the water, she subconsciously wanted to move her hands. However, her hands and legs were tied up. The sudden fear made her panic for a few seconds.
Fortunately, she reacted in time and immediately swam using her core strength. If not, she might have sunk into the water directly.
