"Alright then, if you insist on doing it this way, I have no problem with that."
Seeing Jiang Wan's confident demeanor, Luo De glanced silently at Yan Rulong, who stood calmly in the audience.
Is everything really okay?
Rod was unclear about the relationship between Yan Rulong and Jiang Wan. They looked like a teacher and student, but their way of communicating made them seem like a father and daughter.
Moreover, their conversation revealed that Jiang Wan and Ning Feng's relationship was not ordinary; they might have had a special connection.
Yan Rulong first glanced at Jiang Wan, who was eager to try, and then nodded to Luo De:
"Okay, that's fine too."
Okay.
Since the road is permitted, Rhodes has nothing more to say.
It's just a simulated battle, so don't take it too seriously. Just treat it as giving your opponent some pointers.
Rhodes readily nodded, let out a long breath, and shook his head, saying:
"Okay, let's begin."
Just treat it as exercise; constantly studying this and that makes Rhodes feel like his body is going to stiffen along with his brain.
Perfect, I'll just treat it as a workout.
The opponent's strength was a whole rank lower than his own. Although the opponent possessed some special light power, his bloodline was not that of a dark creature, so he didn't need to worry about it.
The other party is a woman, and her relationship with Ning Feng may be unusual. Luo De knows how he got his current position, and he won't do anything inappropriate.
Be careful, just let her experience the difference.
Without intending to use any weapons, Rhodes assumed a ready stance, prepared to directly withstand the opponent's first wave of attacks.
Judging from the aura emanating from Jiang Wan, the other party is not from the bloodline lineage, but most likely an awakened individual from the spiritual lineage.
Close combat? No, it'll probably start with ranged attacks, right?
Rod's muscles began to tense as he prepared to withstand Jiang Wan's attack, intending to give her face while seizing an opening to quickly end the battle.
A competent branch manager should not compromise all the time; it is also necessary to show one's strength at the right time.
"Ms. Jiang, I'm ready. You can start anytime."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wan brandished the weapon in her hand and smiled knowingly.
Disdain? Guidance?
Uncle, aren't you being quite sensible?
"Alright, since you put it that way, then..."
Jiang Wan bent slightly forward, shifted her weight slightly forward, and then lightly touched the ground with her front foot.
"Watch out!"
careful?
Rod didn't pay much attention to Jiang Wan's seemingly well-intentioned warning; he was thinking about how to win more effectively.
It's best not to provoke the other person, so they don't feel insulted, but are still convinced of your superiority...
"Then we should let her attack for a while first, and then I'll take action to subdue her."
As expected, Jiang Wan raised her spear on the spot and began to gather strength.
The power of light continuously condensed from the tip of the spear, eventually becoming even brighter than the spotlights in the arena. After continuously accumulating power, that power began to approach the fourth rank!
"The additional damage from the Light element? It's probably much weaker against me than she thinks."
Because of his different path, Rhodes' resistance to special energies far surpasses that of many others.
Whoosh!
Finally, just as the spear was about to explode, Jiang Wan suddenly flung it out, approaching Rhodes at an astonishing speed.
The light from the tip of the gun magnified rapidly before Rhodes' eyes, like a thunderbolt.
Squinting, Rod cautiously crossed his arms over his chest and peered ahead through the gap.
This power should be enough to withstand... wait!
Originally intending to withstand the attack head-on, Rhodes suddenly realized the difference at the critical moment and quickly dodged the spear that had transformed into a rainbow.
"This strength is still enough to break through my defenses!"
"What kind of energy burst is this? How can a third-tier power unleash such force after such a short period of accumulation?"
"If I hadn't dodged it, there would have been blood, right?"
Although the other party used a clever trick, it doesn't seem right to be so humiliating.
As he was thinking this, he heard a crisp sound.
clatter.
clatter?
Puzzled by the unusual sound, Rhodes suddenly realized something was amiss.
The sound didn't come from right in front of me...
It's behind!
"What!?"
The spear formed from light silently sliced through the air, forcefully slashing towards the back of Rhodes' neck.
Clang!
At the last moment, Rod turned around abruptly and narrowly managed to raise his hand to block the attack from behind.
"I already told you to be careful."
What's going on?!
Looking at the woman with a smile on her face as she worked hard on her spear, Rhodes felt a sense of absurdity.
Wasn't she just in front of me?
And this power and speed... is this an awakened being from the spiritual spectrum?
You must be kidding!
Card.
Naturally, he wouldn't be beaten forever, and Rhodes made the right response after realizing what was happening.
He lowered his body, then exerted force from his base, unleashing pure physical power to deflect the spear.
Swoosh.
The tall figure didn't try to withstand the force head-on; instead, she used the momentum to quickly retreat and landed a short distance away.
Jiang Wan swung her spear, glanced at the white mark on Rod's arm with some surprise, but quickly laughed and said:
"You didn't succeed this time, but don't be so careless again."
careful?
