Bang bang bang!

The scene unfolding before their eyes left the three Monk in disbelief.

Because among all the professionals, no one could match the speed of Monk's attacks. More importantly, Monk's finishing move relies on a rapid, continuous barrage of strikes to destroy their opponent. But what they were seeing now completely overturned their previous understanding. The Catgirl, who looked like a little girl, was attacking faster than a high-ranking Monk. Her dazzling attacks were so fast that they challenged the limits of the retina's ability to perceive speed, especially considering her astonishing agility and reaction time.

She climbed up the 90-degree vertical wall in no time, using both her hands and feet, and could even run sideways while hugging the wall.

Even Monk need to master unique lightness techniques!

Who is this little Catgirl?

She turns out to be just another little girl's follower. So how strong is this seemingly adorable little girl in the black princess dress?

Bang bang bang!

Lulumiao was blasted away once again.

That's right.

Although she was extremely fast, her weakness was also very obvious: she lacked strength.

As an agile Lycanthrope, Lulumiao possesses extremely high innate agility, but her strength is probably less than eight or nine points, and even after she grows up, it will only be around twelve or thirteen points. Insufficient strength naturally means insufficient offensive power, making it very difficult for her to clash head-on with the high-level Monk in front of her. Even when she manages to attack him, she can only scratch his skin. With such injuries, even if she were to attack dozens of times, it would be difficult to incapacitate him.

--"Spinning Kick!"

Forced into a somewhat disheveled state by the Catgirl before him, the high-ranking Monk finally lost face.

He suddenly roared and unleashed a flurry of kicks, creating a gust of wind. His incredibly powerful whip kicks blocked all attack routes, Lulumiao to take the hit head-on no matter where she attacked.

"Meow!"

The little Catgirl was very clever. Her innate Combat Instinct her aware of danger, and she immediately created distance.

--"Chain Step!"

--"Stunning Fist!"

The offensive was immediately interrupted by the brute force of the high-ranking Monk, creating a vulnerability.

The Monk in front of them shouted, his figure suddenly accelerating as he sprinted forward, unleashing a powerful palm strike imbued with Hidden Force. If it landed on the Catgirl, it might even be Hit Points- threatening.

Vivian, who was watching from the sidelines, finally changed her expression, and a rare look of tension and worry appeared on her small face.

--"Shadow Jump!"

Just as the Monk's Stunning Fist transformed into a whirlwind, Lulumiao's petite figure suddenly twisted behind her, and Soren's figure appeared out of thin air from the shadows. With a cold gaze, he grabbed the petite Catgirl and placed her behind him. Then, with a cold snort, he threw a punch straight at her, blocking the attack head-on.

Bang!

Soren stood motionless, only stiffening slightly for a moment.

The high-ranking Monk staggered back three steps, staring at Soren in disbelief. Sauron had completely Saving Throw the Hidden Force of the Stunning Fist; his resilience was far beyond that of Rogue, more like that of Legendary Warrior. Sauron's attack had been like a bull sinking into the sea; this Legendary Pirate King undoubtedly possessed Constitution far beyond that of ordinary people. This was extremely difficult for Rogue, as their training focused more on technique than on Constitution.

"Stop!"

Soren snorted coldly, glanced at Vivian with a slightly reproachful look, and said in a low voice, "Nonsense!"

"You two, get back here!"

"Starting today, none of you are allowed to leave your homes. I'm going to put you in solitary confinement for two days!"

The commotion outside finally alerted the people inside.

Soren had just stepped outside when he witnessed this scene. Vivian, lawless and unaware of the strength of high-ranking Monk, Soren that they possessed some unique and extremely dangerous fighting techniques. That's why he had just appeared and taken the blow Stunning Fist -on. If he hadn't intervened, Lulumiao would probably be seriously injured and unconscious by now.

No matter how talented a Catgirl of only seven or eight years old is, without the support of a professional level, she is no match for a high-level Monk.

Clap clap clap!

A round of applause rang out.

The Legendary Monk also stepped forward, his expression somewhat solemn. He suddenly spoke, "You truly live up to your reputation as the legendary Headhunter! Your strength is indeed remarkable!"

That last move.

As Legendary Professional, he could see many things. First of all, Soren's resilience was extremely high, almost comparable to that of Legendary Warrior, and he was directly immune to the Hidden Force damage of the Stunning Fist.

Then there's Soren's strength; he could take a regular punch head-on and knock back his minions, proving his strength is no less than that of a purebred Warrior.

"You flatter me." Soren turned and glared at Vivian.

The little girl seemed a bit scared, and rather aggrieved, she grabbed Lulumiao and whispered, "I just wanted to use them to train Lulumiao, besides, she still has some special moves she hasn't used yet."

Soren frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "Go back to your room. I'll settle the score with you later."

At this time.

The Legendary Monk before him suddenly seemed to have made a decision, and said, "Sir! Since we are still arguing about the distribution of profits from the Eastern Route, how about this? I will have a duel with you. If you win, everything will be done according to your demands. If I am fortunate enough to win, then we should have the right to free Trade on the South Coast!"

Let's have a friendly exchange?

Soren paused for a moment upon hearing this, then sized up the other person and said in a deep voice, "Alright."

As expected, the visitors were up to no good.

This guy probably wants to test his strength, and in this situation, we absolutely cannot back down.

"Please!"

A hint of belligerence flickered in the Legendary Monk's eyes. He raised his hand in a gesture of invitation, and then a faint golden light emanated from his palms.

--"Ki Strike!"

Once Monk reaches class level 10, their hands will be crafted into +1 Supernatural Weapon. At class level 13, their hands will be considered +2 Supernatural Weapon. Every three class levels thereafter, Monk's unarmed combat abilities will be enhanced, with Legendary Monk's hands equivalent to a +4 Supernatural Weapon, reaching a maximum of +5.

Some Eastern esoteric techniques can train their hands to have a metal-like structure, making the palms of the Monk as hard as diamond.

"Ki Strike" is the term used by Adventurer.

The original name of this ability was 'kill strike', a deadly attack ability.

Clang!

The Legendary Scimitar Icetail appeared in Soren's palm. This level of sparring allowed no room for carelessness, and sometimes even stopping short of a direct confrontation was impossible.

--"The Step of the Wind!"

Facing the Pirate King Soren, who was rising rapidly in power, the Legendary Monk did not take it lightly at all. He launched a fierce attack from the start, trying to suppress his opponent with the Monk's Flurry of Blows.

--"Piercing Tremor Palm!"

The Legendary Monk of unarmed combat, closed in at high speed and struck Soren in the chest with a palm strike.

Clang!

A slightly golden palm struck the Scimitar, and a force penetrated the blade and traveled to Soren, causing him to shudder as if he had been punched in the chest.

This is a combat technique used against Warrior clad in Full Plate Armor, yet the opponent used it against him, a mere Rogue.

He's really cautious!

--"Sword Momentum: Whirlwind Dance!"

Soren's Scimitar flashed with a cold light as it slashed directly at his opponent's waist. The Legendary Monk dodged the attack with a swift bridge motion, simultaneously sweeping his legs towards Soren's groin.

--"Sweep Kick!"

--"Flurry of Blows!"

--"Whirlwind Kick!"

The Legendary Monk is proficient in continuous strikes, and the speed of his Flurry of Blows, is simply dazzling.

--"Sword Momentum: Decapitation!"

Faced with the enemy's ferocious and continuous attacks, Soren remained completely calm. He knew the fighting style of the Monk very well: never show weakness, or you will be beaten without any chance to fight back. He roared and swung his sword at his opponent's head. If the opponent kicked Soren's body, he would be exposed to his blade.

--"Maneuvering Step!"

--"Cloud-Leaping Step!"

As Soren counterattacked, the Legendary Monk's expression grew increasingly grim. Although the enemy hadn't used many abilities throughout, it was precisely these simplest moves that revealed his true strength: incredibly powerful attributes, exceptionally high reflexes, astonishing Dodge skills, and near-inhuman Saving Throw Ability.

The Shock -Piercing Tremor Palm, capable of stunning Plate Armor Warrior, felt like sinking into the ocean when it struck him.

The Legendary Monk rose from the ground, soaring twenty meters into the air as if blessed by Spell. His expression was extremely serious. He descended from the sky like a cannonball, slamming his palms together, releasing an intensely hot aura.

--"Solar Flare Style!!!"

A visible burst of fire erupted, sending out a scorching wave of air. As the Legendary Monk swung his palm down, a powerful force also burst forth, sending Soren flying backward.

"Cough cough!"

Soren retreated seven or eight meters before suddenly rolling to steady himself. At the same time, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and muttered, "I never thought I'd see this move again after all these years."

Solar Flare Style.

Back then, many people jokingly called it the "Nine Yang Divine Skill," which shows just how powerful it was.

Solar Flare Style, Moon Shadow Style, Step of the Wind.

The Legendary Monk's three signature moves caused countless people to perish by them in the past.

--"Hide from Gaze!"

--"Shadow Jump!"

Soren's gaze turned cold, and his figure vanished into the shadows, as if he had disappeared without a trace.

He got serious.

Because in a direct confrontation, he would find it difficult to defeat a Legendary Monk.
