Seeing the other man block his strike, Meng Cheng wore a peculiar expression.
He had held back with that punch, using only twenty percent of his strength, but anyone below a Fighter Fourth Segment would have been unable to withstand it. Broken bones and torn tendons would have been inevitable.
Yet the kid before him had blocked it after taking only two steps back. That performance was even better than that of an ordinary Fighter Fourth Segment.
Clearly, he had not lied. He really had broken through.
"So soon!?"
The surprise on Meng Cheng's face gradually faded, and his expression returned to normal. His gaze settled on Lin Sheng's face. After a pause, he finally offered a faint smile.
"It seems you've had some good luck. Since you've officially entered the ranks of Fighter Fourth Segment, you're a full member of the Iron Bone Boxing Gym as of today."
"I'll submit your information. Come report in tomorrow."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Meng."
Having achieved his goal, Lin Sheng nodded with a faint smile, then turned and left.
As Lin Sheng's upright figure disappeared from view, the smile on Meng Cheng's face quickly vanished.
A cold glint flashed in his narrowed eyes. He pulled his phone from his trouser pocket and dialed a number.
"Hello, Senior Brother Meng. What is it?"
"Ahu, how's the investigation into Li Wei I asked you to carry out?"
"Li Wei? Oh, right, I remember. I've already sent people to handle it. We'll have his entire background dug up in two days."
Ahu's voice came from the other end of the line, sounding somewhat puzzled.
"What's wrong, Senior Brother Meng? Is there a problem with that kid?"
"He's become a Fighter Fourth Segment. I want his information tonight."
Meng Cheng spoke flatly.
There was no emotion
