Zalrax, his Shadowblade Whip crackling with dark energy, relentlessly pressed the attack against Zenki, Zhen Yi, and Elara. With every strike, he unleashed a barrage of shadows and malevolence, making it increasingly difficult for them to defend themselves. Despite their valiant efforts, the trio's exhaustion began to take its toll.
Zenki's fiery assaults lost their intensity as fatigue weighed heavily upon him. His Inferno Blade Mastery flickered, the flames dimming as his movements became sluggish and unsteady. Zhen Yi, known for his lightning-fast reflexes, struggled to evade Zalrax's strikes, his once precise swordplay losing its edge. Elara, usually graceful and precise with her bow, found her shots wavering and missing their mark, her arms trembling with weariness.
