Ricktor would be lying if he said he was optimistic about the fight that was about to take place. After stepping into the water and the range of Crine's visual Qi, he felt even less so.
The fact of the matter was, Ricktor knew they would have to fight to get out of the situation sooner or later. It was why he had been training so hard. He just wished it wasn't against the opponent in front of them and hoped for something else as well.
Mada, who was by his side, a fellow student and a main disciple of the five major clans, had fallen to his knees. His whole body was shaking, and it was visibly seen in his arms.
"I'm sorry," Mada said as he looked at Ricktor. "I don't know what's happened. I don't understand. My body, it's not listening to me."
