Huo Su hesitated for a moment upon hearing my words; it was clear she wavered. However, she didn't revert to her giant fire sheep form, remaining furious.

Fiora gently pushed me away, her eyes radiating powerful confidence. "Move aside, Yasuo, it's alright."

"But... okay!" After a moment's hesitation, I decided to believe her.

I had just opened Huo Su rushed over. She hadn't completely lost her mind; she just had her opponent in her eyes and was determined to win!

Fiora was jolted back a few steps by the impact, and everyone around her kept a safe distance, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

Because of the excessive force, Huo Su couldn't help but run forward a few steps with each attack, resulting in a one or two-second interval between them.

Although those one or two seconds were very brief, they were enough for Fiora to react, and she took fewer and fewer steps back.

I kept counting, and when Huo Su launched his thirteenth attack, Fiora finally managed to defend steadily!

Her speed and strength did not increase; she simply saw through Huo Su's movements and cleverly used Laurent's Mind Blade to block the attack!

No wonder Jax thinks so highly of Fiora; she truly possesses superb analytical and judgment skills, and has immense confidence in her swordsmanship!

If it were me, I would never dare to use Martial Arts to defend against such a fierce attack!

After encountering resistance, Huo Su did not give up and continued his previous offensive. Fiora also stopped simply dodging and became more and more adept at fighting. Soon she began to counterattack.

Her sword blade sometimes danced like a butterfly, and sometimes soared like an eagle, leaving Huo Su helpless.

The onlookers gasped in amazement; they had never seen such exquisite swordsmanship before, and it was truly an eye-opening experience!

Master Yi, a master of the Wuju Swordsmanship, is known as the Master Yi. His battle with Talon impressed me greatly. At first, he calmly observed the battle while lightly stroking his beard, but later his hand stopped directly on his chin, clearly quite surprised.

Irelia was also a master swordswoman. At this moment, her lips were slightly parted and she couldn't close them for a long time. Her eyes were wide open and she even forgot to blink. Most of the people around her looked the same.

Only Kled remained relatively calm. He stood straight in front of me watching, occasionally stamping his foot, seemingly feeling sorry for someone.

Such an intense battle would normally be easy to decide, but the reason it's so close now is because Huo Su is fighting desperately, while Fiora doesn't want that.

I could see her predicament and wanted to find an opportunity to stop the two of them, but I couldn't intervene at all.

At that moment, a voice entered my mind; it was Miyue: "Yasuo, you can use your Spiritual Power to stop them."

"Won't this hurt their feelings?"

"If you just want to stop them, then no; the effectiveness of a mind-based attack depends on your intentions."

"I see, thank you for your guidance!"

Hearing Miyue say that put my mind at ease. Of course I wouldn't hurt them. As soon as the thought left my mind, my Spiritual Power silently enveloped Huo Su, and it took effect instantly, slowing down her attack considerably.

At the same time, I felt some of the Spiritual Power rebound back. I was puzzled, but I didn't have time to think about it and quickly tried to neutralize it.

"Can you feel some of the Spiritual Power fighting back against you?" Miyue conveyed to me telepathically.

"Yes, you felt it too?"

"I just tried to stop them, but most of my Spiritual Power was blocked, so it was basically ineffective. It seems your Spiritual Power attack is quite powerful, so it had some effect."

"My Spiritual Power attack is stronger than yours? No way!"

"That's the truth. I may be more skilled at controlling it than you, but I'm not as powerful. This girl named Huo Su seems extraordinary; she can withstand mental attacks."

"She is from the People of Furnace Village, and may have the blood of an ancient god."

"I see. She didn't seem hostile towards you earlier. Go and stop her!"

Even without Miyue's prompting, I would have made a move. Now that Huo Su has slowed down, it's the perfect opportunity!

I jumped in front of Fiora, urging her to leave. "You should retreat first, I'll come find you later!"

"Then be careful!" Fiora left without saying anything more.

Huo Su was more manic than before, even somewhat delirious, probably because he had been in the giant sheep state for too long.

I was worried that something might happen to her, so instead of using force to stop her, I added some cold air to the Wind Force, hoping to calm her down.

But the moment the Gale Force touched her skin, it hissed like water and fire evaporating. Just how hot was this guy's body?

"You continue to cool her down, leave the rest to us!" Miyue's voice echoed in her mind again, and then she and Karma acted simultaneously.

The two of them stood on the left and right, their hands outstretched forward. Others might not have noticed, but I could clearly feel the abundant Spiritual Power spreading outwards, soon forming a formation!

Huo Su was in the middle of the formation, and his frenzied power was suppressed, gradually calming down. I also followed Miyue's advice and withdrew my Wind Force.

Soon she lay motionless on the ground, and I quickly carried her inside so that Irelia, who was skilled in medicine, could examine her.

"Don't worry, her breathing is very stable. She shouldn't be unconscious. It's possible that the power was forcibly suppressed, causing her to faint."

"That's good. That guy is such a worry!"

Sivir returned just then and, seeing Huo Su's tattered clothes, asked in bewilderment, "What happened? I just went to look around and came back to find her injured?"

"She had a match with Fiora and things got out of control, but she's fine now, so don't worry."

"Oh, that's good. I thought she'd been bullied!"

"Who dares to bully her? It's getting late, you should all go and rest. I'll stay here and keep watch."

"I'm going to stay here and keep watch, otherwise what if you take advantage of me!" Sivir reverted to her mischievous self.

"Then you stay here, I'm going to rest."

"No, you have to stay here too. What if I fall asleep!"

Irelia chuckled at Sivir's words, "You're quite popular, Yasuo. I'll be going now; I still need to arrange accommodations for my new friends."

"Then you'll have to put in the effort."

After Irelia finished speaking, she left and soon brought us two sets of bedding, all made of animal fur, which were very warm.

Sivir quickly crawled inside, looking quite content. "Ah, this is so comfortable. I used to think the houses in Ionia were ugly and low-ceilinged, and there wasn't much decoration inside, but now it looks pretty good."

"Have you ever sighed after getting used to living in a palace and experiencing civilian life?"

"No, I genuinely love it here. Shurima doesn't have such lush vegetation, so many animal tracks, or snow like this."

"Then stay a little longer, no one's going to kick you out."

"Hehe, of course."
