Ashariyya Had to Take on Su Lu!

Ashariyya easily defeated Heidi, then fought Blanche.

The two battled to a stalemate.

Although Blanche had a slight edge over Ashariyya in Magic Cultivation, Ashariyya didn't rely on magic alone.

Her Dou Qi Cultivation was also impressive. She had reached the level of an Eight-star Dou Practitioner and was not far from becoming a Dou Shi.

Besides, the Dark Sword Master could use Possession Magic, just like Xiaoyan Ji.

At last, she had met Dongfang Chen, only to find that he was far stronger than her.

That had left Blanche feeling a little down throughout their journey.

After all, she had spent so much time with Dongfang Chen that sometimes she even wondered if she really was as gifted as
