Smoke and dust filled the air.
Dai Mubai stared straight ahead.
As the smoke cleared, Ailuo reappeared.
The Petal Shield was still there, but it spun much more slowly now, and fine cracks covered its surface.
Ailuo's face had grown even paler.
She had little Soul Power left within her.
Wild joy flashed through Dai Mubai's eyes.
