Let Big Sister Kiss You

On the arena stage, Gu Ding's opponent appeared once again. This time, it was actually a woman.

The woman wore a golden metal mask that covered the upper half of her face, leaving only her mouth exposed. She was dressed extremely revealingly, with only a black leather bandeau covering her upper body and nothing else concealing the rest. Below that was a black leather miniskirt, and a pair of black Hate-the-Heavens High Heels nearly twenty centimeters tall, studded with dozens of gemstones of various colors, glittered beneath the lights. "Little brother, I just watched your match. It was wonderful."

"Thanks for the compliment." Gu Ding looked curiously at the information displayed for her. It was all question marks. ID name, number of battles, number of wins, battle ranking... every piece of information was marked with a question mark. "Why is all your information displayed as question marks?"

"That's because big sister deliberately hid it." The Masked Woman's lips curled slightly. She did not seem to be in any hurry to fight Gu Ding. "What, are you interested in big sister's identity?"

"No, it's just the first time I've seen this, so I asked casually." Gu Ding shook his head. This woman clearly was not simple, and he had no desire to provoke her.

The Masked Woman said leisurely, "Big sister has seen someone use a similar body technique before. But when I saw you use it this time, it seemed somewhat different. I couldn't help getting a little itchy. How about we spar and stop at the right point?"

During their conversation, Gu Ding carefully observed his opponent and came to only one conclusion—this woman was extremely dangerous. Though she appeared to be standing there casually, there was not the slightest opening to exploit. Gu Ding could not even judge the strength of her aura. This could only mean one thing: her strength was on an entirely different level from his. Even though their Cell Comprehensive Indices were the same in this Virtual Arena, it was easy to tell that she was a true martial arts expert.

"Sure." After silently assessing her strength, Gu Ding decisively agreed to her proposal to stop at the right point.

The Masked Woman casually removed the black whip hanging from her belt and smiled faintly at Gu Ding. Then she flicked her wrist, sending the whip flying. A black shadow flashed through the air, swift as lightning. Gu Ding took a step with Shadow Step and dodged aside. Just as he was about to counterattack, he discovered that the black shadow seemed alive, pursuing him again with thunderous speed. Gu Ding was slightly surprised. She had clearly only launched one attack, yet it had such an effect. He used Shadow Step once more. But something strange happened. This dodge seemed completely ineffective. The whip shadow ignored the changes in his footwork and pursued him as though it had broken free of the restraints of space.

"Huh?" Gu Ding finally understood the power of this move. He dodged six times in succession, pushing the six forms of Shadow Step to their limits, yet the whip shadow clung to him like a parasite on the bone, impossible to shake off. At that moment, realization struck him. I can use this opportunity to practice my footwork. This virtual body has a Cell Comprehensive Index of a full 100 points. It should be enough for me to use some of the later moves without my body collapsing.

With that thought, he followed the later descriptions of the Limitless Body Technique in his memory and took the seventh step of Shadow Step. However, it was his first time using it, so the movement was somewhat awkward. That brief instant of vulnerability was exploited by the whip shadow. With a crack, it lashed Gu Ding across the back. Almost at the same time, Gale Body activated as a defense. The whip shadow directly tore through Gale Body's protection and sent Gu Ding flying.

With a boom, Gu Ding slammed heavily into the protective barrier, leaving a long crack across his back. That strike nearly eliminated him on the spot, making him break out in a cold sweat.

"Looks like I hit a little too hard..." the Masked Woman muttered softly, seemingly not having done it on purpose.

Gu Ding slowly climbed to his feet. Judging from that strike alone, she could have killed him instantly with a single move. His back was a relatively well-defended area. If that blow had landed on a vital spot, he would probably have been eliminated immediately. Even so, if he took another two or three attacks of that level, even outside vital areas, he feared he would turn into data fragments and be sent out of the arena stage.

"Little brother, you're hurt this badly. Do you still want to continue?" the Masked Woman asked with a slight smile. It was impossible to tell what meaning hid within that smile.

Gu Ding grinned. "Of course I want to continue. I still have plenty of moves I haven't used yet."

It was not easy to encounter such a powerful opponent to test his moves against, so Gu Ding naturally would not let the chance pass. Not to mention that she did not seem hostile toward him—even if she were, he would not easily give up such an opportunity to test himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ding's feet suddenly exerted force. He stepped out with the seventh form of Shadow Step, this time without any awkwardness. Facing an opponent skilled at long-range attacks, Gu Ding began attacking proactively. As long as he could get close to her, he had a chance of winning.

What terrifying comprehension. That move was so awkward when he used it just now; it was obviously his first time. Yet on the second use, there isn't a single flaw. The Masked Woman could not help feeling somewhat surprised. Her hands did not pause as she lashed out again, this time holding back much of her strength.

Seeing the whip shadow coming at him, Gu Ding stepped out with the eighth form of Shadow Step. This step was steady and proper, without any problems. Then came the ninth and tenth forms in quick succession. When he reached the eleventh form, that awkwardness appeared again. Seeing the whip shadow about to strike, Gu Ding threw a punch directly at it.

Boom! As the two collided, Gu Ding was forced back several steps this time. A red mark appeared on his fist, but there was no crack like the one that had appeared on his chest earlier. Glancing at his fist from the corner of his eye, he knew that she had deliberately held back.

Is she intentionally letting me test my moves? Gu Ding raised his brows. He still did not know what purpose had brought her here, but this attack revealed her attitude—this match was merely a spar.

Knowing that, Gu Ding naturally stopped holding back. He knew full well that his strength was insufficient. With such an excellent training opportunity before him, he could not let it slip away. He raised his fists and charged forward again.

Again and again, he was struck by the whip. Again and again, he was forced back by her. Their battle on the arena stage had already lasted more than two hours. Gu Ding was exhausted and panting. Although he had never touched even a single hair on her head, his progress had been remarkable.

He had learned Shadow Step up to the fifteenth form, Steel Fist up to the fourteenth form, Ghost Foot up to the twelfth form, and both Thunder Elbow and Flame Knee up to the ninth form. Even Gale Body, the most difficult to cultivate, had entered training for its second form.

"You've consumed too much mental power. There's no point in continuing," the Masked Woman said. She also knew very well that while the arena did not consume physical stamina, more than two hours of continuous battle placed no small burden on mental power. These two hours of fighting had also confirmed that Gu Ding's genetic level did not exceed the second rank, making the strength of his mental power easy to estimate.

Gu Ding also knew she was not lying. His progress had reached a bottleneck. It was not a problem with comprehension, but because the burden on his mental power had reached its limit. If he kept forcing himself, the Virtual Arena might forcibly kick him out. Yet he was unwilling to admit defeat just like that.

Seeing the look in his eyes, the Masked Woman seemed to realize this. Her lips curled again. "Little brother, you don't want to admit defeat, do you? How about this? Let big sister kiss you once, and big sister will admit defeat. And I'll even give you a gift."

"I think her suggestion is quite good." Sea Emperor, who had remained silent the whole time, suddenly spoke after hearing the proposal.

Gu Ding fell silent for a moment. Just thinking about being taken advantage of by a woman made him feel a little displeased. "I adm—"

Before he could finish, Gu Ding discovered that his body could not move at all. He could not even make a sound. The Masked Woman's lips curled slightly as she slowly walked up to him. One flawless white finger pressed against Gu Ding's lips.

"You'd rather admit defeat than let big sister kiss you once, is that it?" The Masked Woman lowered her head and laughed softly beside Gu Ding's ear. "Big sister isn't just going to kiss you once. I'm also going to..."

As she spoke, the Masked Woman kissed Gu Ding on the cheek, leaving behind a bright red lip print. Then she straightened up and gave Gu Ding a strange smile. After that, she wrapped an arm around the back of Gu Ding's head and shoved him forward hard. Gu Ding's face was instantly buried between the Masked Woman's two surging breasts.

"Wow..." Nearly all the male spectators in the viewing stands cried out at the same time, drooling with envy.
