Lose

Ryu looked into the flaming giant woman's eyes, the glint within his own applying a pressure to her that she had never faced before. For a moment, it felt like Ryu was the giant and she was the normal human. 

Every fiber of her being screamed out: "No!". There was no way she could defeat this man. And yet, this was ironically the very reason she took a step forward and attacked without a word. 

If she took a step back now, then her Dao Heart would be cracked at the very least. In the worst case scenario, her path of cultivation would cease to be right her and now. 

Ryu knew this intimately. He had already begun to feel out this woman's character the moment she appeared. He knew what kind of heart of a warrior that she had, and he knew that she had no ability to resist these sorts of stakes. 

If she refused, then her Dao Heart would collapse and he would win anyway. And if she accepted like he thought she would… 

Well, the result was obvious.
