Shiyi was right. If Xiao Chen chose not to make a move because he feared that his opponent would mimic him, he would effectively be hamstrung by his own caution. In that situation, Xiao Chen wouldn't have any way to kill Shiyi.
He surely couldn't count on Xius to take out everyone else before dealing with Shiyi, could he?
Moreover, the strength that Xius had demonstrated was entirely witnessed by Shiyi. When the time came, all Shiyi needed to do was to mimic Xius's appearance, and then face a Xius who was greatly depleted of his strength. It would be basically effortless.
So, in Shiyi's eyes, this had already turned into a vicious cycle!
"If you don't attack, you can't kill me."
"If you do attack, then I can mimic you!"
Truth be told, Shiyi's somewhat rascally ability was indeed very annoying.
However, after hearing his words, Xiao Chen just slightly smiled.
"Who said... I'm not going to attack?"
Shiyi was startled for a moment but soon sneered maliciously.
