"What?!"
Xiao Bai crashed heavily into the mud, her heart filled with shock. Her gills opened and closed a few times before she was forced to revert to human form.
Maintaining her original form in a waterless environment weakened her even more severely than fighting in human form.
If fighting in human form only reduced her combat strength by thirty percent, then fighting on land—or in the waterless environment Chen Ping had created—reduced her strength by more than fifty percent!

In Chen Ping's view, such a tactic was
