Flying down the slope of the mountain, Sunny left the shadows and did something that would have usually been considered a very stupid move in a battle — he leaped into the air, soaring high above the ravine, and then plummeted down.
Experienced warriors all knew that performing a jump in combat had no benefit, and instead left one open to a potentially lethal attack.
