Yun Lintian sighed inwardly. The moment he learned about them from Mu Zhi, he knew he would eventually meet them, but he didn't expect it to happen this quickly.
As he observed, Yun Lintian realized this was not a battle to the death, but a clash of egos, a display of dominance. They were testing each other, probing for weaknesses, and asserting their superiority in this desolate land.
Yun Lintian settled behind a towering ice sculpture, its jagged edges providing cover from the swirling snow and the stray blasts of ice and shadow that erupted from the ongoing battle. He watched the two figures with detached curiosity, his mind analyzing their movements, their techniques, their strengths, and weaknesses.
He could hear their voices now, their words carried by the wind, snippets of conversation laced with animosity and veiled threats.
