Hearing Atom's request to duel with her human form, Mu Ying agreed without hesitation as she had the same intention.
If they were to compete, it would be at the highest difficulty.
When going against an enemy known for speed, of course, she had to test her spell casting speed and move speed!
"Does a level 9 Wanderer have the ability to fly?" Mu Ying asked.
"No," Atom replied helplessly, "If you take to the skies, I can only hit you with my hand crossbow."
Skill-based professions were disadvantaged in this way, lacking any flight-related abilities to date. For the Wanderer profession, there wasn't even flight ability until at least level 14, otherwise, Clan Leader Ned wouldn't have needed Mu Ying's giant vine and magic to approach the Fishman Priest during the assault on the Fishman Village.
Mu Ying decided not to use any flying spells or related abilities. It was a limited sparring match, after all; she didn't need to rely on air superiority to win.
