The fight was still ongoing as Raze heard the voice, and he immediately needed to act. In that moment, it was no longer about conserving his strength but instead about taking action.
He used his Qi to quickly push himself back a sufficient distance away from Bargo. Seeing this, Bargo blinked a couple of times.
He wasn't expecting such fast movement, so he was unable to properly discern what had occurred, but when he looked at Raze, he was in for the biggest shock of all.
"What are you doing!" Bargo shouted out, his voice slightly shaky.
He could see that the person taking the assessment had their own sword held up against their own neck, as if they were going to take their own life.
'Did I push this one too far!' Bargo thought. 'But to resort to this, does he have anxiety about losing? Does he think he has failed the assessment and decided to go this far?'
