Felix's instinct for danger was still extremely sharp.
After just one exchange, she knew she was no match for this Meng Shuang.
The truth was unbelievable, yet she had no choice but to accept it.
All her anger had already turned into fear and caution.
Felix might have looked arrogant and overbearing, but in truth, she was terrified of dying and cherished her life dearly.
As an assassin, she was also used to retreating immediately if she failed to land a single blow.
Whenever things went wrong, she would certainly slip away at once.
She had no intention of staying behind to fight her opponent to the death.
After all, her little life was far too precious. She still wanted to live on and enjoy this wonderful life.
Thus...
Whoosh!!
After forcibly taking one of Meng Shuang's attacks, Felix directly used the Purification skill on her equipped gear. Once the paralysis and stiffness were cleansed, she did not choose to remain in place and tangle with Meng Shuang. Instead, she tapped her toes against the ground and instantly retreated.
As she retreated...
She immediately took out the teleportation scroll gifted by the tournament organizers and used it without the slightest hesitation.
A five-second casting time!
During that time, she could not be attacked or controlled, or the casting would be interrupted immediately!
When the audience outside saw Felix retreat without hesitation and use a teleportation scroll to flee...
Every single one of them was dumbfounded!
This...
They had only just exchanged blows. She saw that she had failed, then directly admitted defeat and used a scroll to retreat?
What the hell? Was Felix giving up that easily?
She had clearly been so furious and arrogant before, even declaring with absolute certainty that she would chop Meng Shuang into eight pieces.
