Xiao Hongchen touched his chin. "Are the Star Luo National Academy team idiots? Equipping flight soul tools first and then releasing their martial souls—they're just asking to be caught and dealt with. Equipping a flight soul tool takes less than half a second anyway, why bother doing it right at the start?"
Ma Rulong shook his head. "I understand what you mean, but don't forget, the flight soul tools the Star Luo team are wearing on their backs are imitations of the Speed-7 simple flight devices we phased out decades ago. They simply cannot achieve instantaneous takeoff and hovering."
"If they release their martial souls first and then their flight tools, they'll likely run out of time to take off. Perhaps we could choose to have Xu Sanshi execute a Xuanwu Displacement and then quickly equip flight tools to hover outside the arena, but the Star Luo side can't do that."
