From Zero to Hero! (2)
The two combatants came up on stage at the same time.
On one side, there's Xiyadie, empty-handed, taking deep breaths as she tries to calm down. On the other end, a woman with tea-brown hair tied in twin tails was holding a thin wooden sword in her hand. Her brown eyes gazed at Xiyadie, sweeping from head to toe as if appraising her.
"Greet!"
Elder Maomao shouted, urging the two to bow down toward each other. Xiyadie cupped her fist and bowed a perfect 45 degrees, just like her opponent. After the bow, both sides went to their battle poses.
Xiyadie went for an unorthodox pose, legs shoulder-width apart, facing her enemy sideways. Such an arrangement limits the enemy's view of the hidden side of Yinuo's body, making it easier to launch surprise attacks.
