Chapter 988: Chapter 988 Admitting Defeat
Bai Feifeiās expression was very calm. She had great confidence in her own strength. She glanced at Chen Ming, then slightly bowed: "Senior Brother Chen Ming, please guide me!"
Among the younger generation of the Dragon Group, they refer to each other as senior brothers and sisters according to their strength. Since Chen Ming had joined the Dragon Group earlier and his skills were stronger, Bai Feifei called Chen Ming this way according to the custom.
Chen Ming shivered slightly and looked carefully at Ling Feng. Seeing that Ling Fengās face showed no abnormality, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Bai Feifei eased Chen Mingās mind. Initially worried that Bai Feifeiās strength was too weak, he thought it would be challenging to go easy on her, but he didnāt expect Bai Feifeiās strength to be formidable.
"As long as I control myself a bit, Bai Feifeiās entry into the Guardian Squad will be assured!" Chen Ming chuckled internally, "This task is really too easy!"
But on the surface, Chen Ming showed no expression. He extended his hand and said mildly, "Junior Sister Bai, please go ahead!"
Bai Feifei didnāt stand on ceremony. Once Chen Ming was ready, she dashed forward, targeting Chen Mingās vital areas with each move.
"Good timing!" Chen Mingās eyes gleamed as he met Bai Feifeiās assault, and the two started a back-and-forth exchange of blows.
Even though Chen Mingās strength clearly surpassed Bai Feifeiās, with Ling Fengās "instruction," he held back his power, while Bai Feifei attacked relentlessly and boldly. In no time, they had gone through over a hundred rounds of exchanges!
"I never imagined Bai Feifei could compete with Senior Brother Chen Ming like this. Has Bai Feifeiās strength reached the level of Senior Brother Chen Ming? Itās terrifying!"
"Indeed, itās only been half a year! It seems Bai Feifei really shouldnāt be underestimated!"
"Senior Brother Chen Mingās strength is not just this much. If the fight continues, Bai Feifei surely wonāt be Senior Brother Chen Mingās match!"
...
Because Chen Ming concealed his intentions skillfully, even the surrounding A-level expert seniors didnāt sense anything unusual, but rather praised both of them highly.
However, Chen Mingās actions could not deceive Ling Feng. Ling Feng frowned, puzzled as to why Chen Ming acted so cautiously despite his specific instructions. What was really going on?
With two bangs, Bai Feifei and Chen Ming clashed palms, both retreating several steps.
After over a hundred moves, Bai Feifei was breathing heavily, and a fine layer of sweat glistened on her forehead.
"As expected of a young powerhouse of the Dragon Group, Iāve exerted all my strength, yet the opponent effortlessly defused my attacks," Bai Feifei thought to herself.
Chen Ming was also a bit surprised. He shook his hand and said in a deep voice, "Junior Sister Baiās strength is beyond my expectations. It seems Junior Sister Bai has improved her skills recently! With that in mind, I must get serious now!"
Bai Feifei cupped her hand and said, "Senior Brother Chen, please proceed!"
Chen Ming raised his hand: "Tough Body: Instant Strike!"
As soon as Chen Ming spoke, his silhouette flickered, and in an instant, he appeared in front of Bai Feifei, striking towards her abdomen.
Bai Feifei swiftly blocked Chen Mingās attack with both hands. With a booming sound, Bai Feifeiās figure flew out, landing staggeringly more than ten meters away.
"Chen Ming has perfected this move to an exceptional level!" praised an A-level senior next to Ling Feng. "The newer generation of the Dragon Group is becoming increasingly mature!"
Ling Fengās lips curled into a cold smile. Although Chen Mingās move seemed swift as lightning and powerful like thunder, he held back three-tenths of his strength during the attack. Additionally, there was a brief pause in his assault that, while unnoticed by others, reduced his attack power by forty percent!
"Chen Ming is actually holding back!" Ling Feng thought angrily, "This kid really didnāt take my words seriously! Iāll see how to train this guy after this!"
While Ling Feng contemplated disciplining Chen Ming, the situation in the arena had changed. Chen Mingās assault grew stronger, his presence more overwhelming. But Bai Feifei, like a lone leaf amidst a stormy sea, managed to counter his attacks with minimal exertion!
The Seven-step Silver Light Snake gradually matured, enabling Bai Feifei to utilize more of its power and capabilities!
"Ling Feng, who do you think will win?" At this moment, a middle-aged man beside Ling Feng smiled and asked.
This middle-aged man was known as God Butcher, nicknamed Endless Cold Gleam! Ling Feng could sense a sharp Sword Intent from him. Although his strength hadnāt reached the Demi-God Domain, he wasnāt far off.
"Senior God Butcher, what do you think?" Ling Feng asked with a slight smile.
God Butcher glanced at Ling Feng and replied with a smile, "Judging from the scene, although Chen Mingās attacks are fierce, his prolonged assault is affecting his vigor. Besides, heās merely at the B-level Peak, with limited Inner Strength reserves. If this continues, his consumption will surpass Bai Feifeiās significantly. If Bai Feifei can persist, she will undoubtedly emerge victorious in the end!"
"I didnāt expect Senior God Butcher to be so optimistic about Bai Feifei!" Ling Feng smiled, "However, I still believe Chen Ming has a higher chance of winning since his battle experience is superior to Bai Feifeiās. And as the situation in the arena is rapidly changing, Bai Feifei might fail at any moment!"
God Butcher merely smiled without disputing Ling Fengās remarks. But Ling Feng sensed from God Butcherās expression that he might have noticed something.
Right then, Chen Mingās tumultuous storm-like attack suddenly slowed down, and a hint of bitterness appeared on his face. Bai Feifei seized the opportunity, struck Chen Ming back with a palm, and laughed, "Senior Brother Chen Ming, you let me win!"
Chen Ming did not launch another attack but stood still, only speaking with a bitter smile after several breaths, "I didnāt expect Junior Sister Baiās strike to contain snake venom paralysis. Had Junior Sister Bai not held back just now, I wouldāve been in a sorry plight!"
With that, Chen Ming clasped his hand cordially, "Junior Sister Bai, I lost. You have earned the qualification to join the Guardian Squad!"
Upon hearing this, joy cast over Bai Feifeiās face. She proudly glanced towards Ling Fengās direction and then feigned modesty, saying, "Senior Brother Chen, you let me win!"
Everyone around was astonished; they never expected Chen Ming to lose to Bai Feifei! With many senior experts present, no one suspected anything amiss.
At this moment, the younger generation of the Dragon Group truly recognized Bai Feifei. After defeating Senior Brother Chen Ming, Bai Feifei stood at the top among the Dragon Groupās younger generation.
