Lind was fighting carefully because things were not going the way the spirit explained to him. He was supposed to be on a team of 10 but he was only seeing 5 to a side. Further, Ryu had said weapons would be shattered if used again.
Callisto was still using her sword. So what was going on? Why was it not shattering?
He then noticed the flow of Qi around her head was strange as her eyes became crazed. Ryu looked concerned as he used a mace with difficulty but still had intent on it.
The Qi was unlike anything Lind had ever seen but he had little time to analyze it. He had to keep fighting against the other 3 on Ryu and Callisto's team while they attacked his team.
He was expecting experts but there was something off about all of them. They seemed fairly weak despite being tier 7 and 8 Sky Realms.
It was clear they were not familiar with the weapons they were using despite putting out decent intent strength on them.
