For example, the Hualan Empire had many methods to enhance the abilities of "Chosen Ones," but none of them had much effect on him.
Is it that you don't want to? Of course not.
It's just that his strength is far beyond that of others. Rather than relying on those things, it's better to rely on his own insights, or rather, he needs a catalyst to possibly enter the "realm of gods" that only exists in legends.
But Xia Wuyou's equipment can do that; both her battle suit and the sharp blade in her hand can bring her a significant boost.
Even if she is a level below him, it is still shocking, at least with the technological level of the Hualan Empire, it is impossible to do this.
If the other items Xu Shi brought earlier were merely icing on the cake for him, this method was definitely an eye-opener for him.
"That's really amazing."
He expressed his sincere admiration and decided to give his opponent the utmost respect.
Dongfang Xiao, who was standing to the side, was equally dumbfounded.
As the saying goes, laymen watch the show. With the Little Queen's level of supernatural abilities, it's impossible for her to have considered so many intricacies in such a short time.
But simply watching the two clash up close was enough to deeply shock her.
Despite her dislike for Cheng Gujian, she had to acknowledge his strength. The reason she didn't choose to resist and instead went straight for suicide was largely due to this.
In her memory, it was almost entirely scenes of Cheng Gujian slaughtering everyone.
Xia Wuyou is probably the first person who can go toe-to-toe with him.
She hadn't participated in the campaign against the Sea God, and Xia Wuyou was a complete stranger to her. This was the first time she had seen him take action, and for a moment, she was a bit stunned.
Are the people around Xu Shi... really that capable?
Or rather, how could someone so capable willingly serve him?!
The thought that Xu Shi's abilities were also unrelated to combat made her feel a little resentful.
Why is there such a huge difference between people?
Just as she was still a little dizzy, Xia Wuyou suddenly stopped attacking, withdrew, and stood in front of her again.
"Xia...Master's wife?"
Dongfang Xiao asked instinctively, "What is this...?"
She was trying to say, "You're not going to give up, are you?"
This kind of thing is quite easy to spot. Even though it seems like no one got hurt after fighting for so long, the energy drain from activating abilities is undeniable.
Cheng Gujian is clearly in better condition; this is an undeniable fact.
This also extinguished the little empress's hard-won hope in an instant.
"Yes, he is indeed stronger than me. If this drags on any longer, I'm sure I'll lose."
When asked, Xia Xiaomao readily admitted it.
Being an S-rank, or S+, and not being able to beat an SS-rank is certainly not shameful. You might feel resentful, but the only solution is to train hard and make up for the gap as soon as possible. Being stubborn and arguing won't help at all.
"So now..."
Dongfang Xiao didn't have her good mindset; all she felt was panic.
This isn't a contest; there's no such thing as stopping short of a duel.
If you can't handle it, then our fate will still be death, won't it?
"Don't be afraid."
Xia Wuyou laughed, "I never expected to be able to take care of him on my own, and I'm not the one who can take care of him."
"Then who else could it be?"
The little empress was stunned. No one in Xu Shi's team could fight better than you.
“Who… Look, he’s here.”
Just as Xia Xiaomao was about to explain, she looked towards the entrance of the main hall and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, pointing in that direction.
"Mr. Wen, I'm begging you."
