This must be the mission's captain—Dragon Jade.
Two Martial Artists had just finished their duel. As one of them walked out of the combat space, his face showed a hint of regret and reluctance, but he ultimately cupped his fist toward Dragon Jade with good grace.
"Senior Dragon Jade, I was outmatched. My strength isn't sufficient for this mission. I won't hold everyone back."
With that, he promptly chose to leave the team.
The refined young man he had called "Senior Dragon Jade" gave a slight nod and said, "Qin River, your strength is already impressive. It's just that this mission is truly too dangerous. Once you have cultivated the Sea-Covering Saber to Perfection, we will welcome you back at any time."
The Martial Artist named Qin River nodded. Without another word, his form vanished in a flash of teleportation.
The other was a tall Female Martial Artist with a fiery figure, clad in a form-fitting, crimson combat suit.
She wore a confident smile.
