(Thank you very much to 'Desire to Fly Without Heart' for the 1,000 reward, as well as 'x16341313', 'Dodge-Tomahawk', 'Child of Light Shana', and 'Book Friend 140810205950908' for their rewards!)
Kazami Yuuka was indeed very strong—so strong that even Purple, who possessed the Boundary Power to create and destroy all things, could not guarantee victory over her. Purple had even admitted that if she clashed head-on with Kazami Yuuka, she would most likely be the one to lose!
But that had been the Purple of the past!
After her experiences in the Sparlier World, thanks to those miraculous pools capable of transforming people, Purple's strength might not have improved dramatically, but it had still risen considerably. Even her level had increased by one, from level 95 to level 96.
At the Demigod Rank, the gap between every tiny level was enormous.
After reaching level 96, Purple was only one level below Kazami Yuuka. Combined with her terrifying ability to manipulate boundaries, if Purple faced Kazami Yuuka now, her odds of winning could absolutely be raised to an even fifty-fifty!
In other words, Purple now had the ability to contend for the position of Gensokyo's strongest!
As for Wu Yan's 'Crimson Jade Mode,' it allowed him to possess all the power of the owner of the blood that transformed into 'Crimson Jade,' including level, abilities, and all sorts of methods. Even if that person's level increased or their abilities developed further, it would remain the same!
In other words, after entering Purple's 'Crimson Jade Mode,' Wu Yan's strength had already risen to the point where he could contend with Kazami Yuuka!
Kazami Yuuka could not possibly fail to notice that.
At the very least, she could not possibly fail to notice when Wu Yan had unleashed Purple's third 'Crimson Jade Mode'
