Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 193 The Rumoured Suitor

"Huh?"

Violeta hesitated for a moment, then chuckled. "Hehe, to be honest, I haven't really practiced much."

She wasn't too into dancing, but martial arts-now that was her thing. There was a kind of similarity between the two.

Some movements seemed difficult, but in reality, they were easy to complete if you found the right point to exert force.

Of course, all of this came from Violeta's past life on the set, where she worked as a stunt double and martial arts performer, paying the price with all sorts of injuries.

She knew how to utilise the force points of her limbs and muscles to complete certain movements.

But, even with her seemingly casual tone, it wasn't going to be a walk in the park without real experience.

Hazel scoffed. "Oh, please, spare me. What you call 'casual' isn't something I haven't practiced. I know exactly how difficult it is. Otherwise, people like Vivian wouldn't be stunned."

If everyone could do it, it wouldn't be called a super-difficult skill.

"Vio, you're amazing!"

"Thanks."

Violeta smiled. "I can manage moves like that, but if you want me to dance properly, that's a different story."

Hazel rested her hand on Violeta's shoulder. "But to dance well, you need a solid foundation, just like building a pyramid. Without a base, how can you reach the top? As the saying goes, 'The stage in a minute ten years of practice backstage.""

Violeta nodded. "Yeah, you're right."

Hazel said, "Wait till next spring's Lotus Competition. My sister and I will go head-to-head with Lucy. That's when the real showdown begins."
