Yun Fei was incredibly fast, but Jiang Li's reactions were not slow either.
He had already killed three Seventh Grade martial artists and was very familiar with their strength.
What surprised Jiang Li was that Yun Fei was faster than any Seventh Grade martial artist he had encountered before.
"Worthy of being a genius from Nanfang University."
Jiang Li used the Phantom Shadow Maze Steps as he dodged, thinking to himself.
Then Jiang Li began to counterattack. After evading one of Yun Fei's strikes, he swung his fist at her without the slightest hint of tenderness toward a beautiful woman.
Yun Fei was no ordinary person either. The moment Jiang Li threw his punch, she had already evaded it.
The two of them traded blows across the sparring arena, their figures weaving past each other. Several whole minutes passed, yet neither could touch the other.
Yun Fei suddenly retreated. Her expression was blank as she stared at Jiang Li in disbelief.
Jiang Li could match her movement technique with an Eighth-grade martial art?
At that moment, Jiang Li stepped forward, his fist tearing through the air.
Yun Fei suppressed the shock in her heart. The next instant, she directly activated her Talent Ability.
A-Class Talent Ability—Godspeed.
In an instant, Yun Fei vanished. Her speed seemed to increase more than tenfold.
A palm print abruptly appeared before Jiang Li.
Bang!
Jiang Li staggered back repeatedly. This was the first time his body had been touched by a Seventh Grade martial artist.
Looking up, he saw Yun Fei already standing before him. "I have to admit, Jiang Li, you are the most talented martial artist I have ever seen."
"Unfortunately, your Talent Ability is D-Class. Now I will show you the advantage a Talent Ability grants a martial artist, as well as the gap between different Talent Abilities."
Yun Fei was not showing off. More than anything, she felt regret.
Although Jiang Li was currently an Eighth-grade Martial Artist, he was already no different from a Seventh Grade martial artist.
Without using her Talent Ability, she did not even dare guarantee that she could defeat Jiang Li.
But with the support of her Talent Ability, Jiang Li was bound to lose.
Jiang Li frowned. He did not immediately use his own Talent Ability, merely saying slowly, "Again!"
"Fine!" Yun Fei agreed.
Very soon, even with Jiang Li completely focused, he still could not find Yun Fei's figure.
She was too fast. His naked eye could no longer keep up; even if it could, his reactions could not.
In just three minutes, he was struck by another five palms.
"So this is the A-Class ability, Godspeed. If I encountered someone like this in the wilderness, with a weapon in hand, they could injure me in an instant."
Jiang Li's heart sank, and he reined in some of his contempt for Seventh Grade martial artists.
The Seventh Grade martial artists he had encountered before had all underestimated him too much. But against an agile opponent with an A-Class Talent like Yun Fei, he was at a disadvantage.
Yun Fei stopped again. Several small holes had appeared in her martial arts uniform, caused by friction with the air from moving too quickly.
"Jiang Li, do you understand now? If you encounter an enemy like me, your best choice is to avoid their sharp edge." Yun Fei could not help secretly letting out a breath of relief.
She had never expected that, as a Seventh Grade Peak martial artist, she would be pushed to this extent by Jiang Li, who was four years younger and a whole major realm below her.
Fortunately, Jiang Li had only just awakened his Talent Ability, and it was merely a D-Class Support System ability.
Otherwise, she really would have been utterly humiliated.
"I understand." Jiang Li sighed softly. "Talent Abilities truly cannot be underestimated."
As his voice fell, a towering figure slowly emerged behind Jiang Li.
Two battle flags fluttered fiercely, like an ancient war god who had fallen, standing behind Jiang Li.
"Since that is the case, Senior Sister, I will not hold back either."
"Please advise me!"
Facing Yun Fei, Jiang Li slowly closed his eyes. His Martial Soul's senses immediately spread across the entire training ground.
He could clearly see the stunned, disbelieving expression on Yun Fei's face.
The next instant, Jiang Li burst forth. With his Blood Qi Value amplified, he was like a raging bear tearing through the air as he threw a punch.
Before Yun Fei had time to question him, she saw Jiang Li's suddenly surging figure. She immediately activated Godspeed and retreated.
Yet Jiang Li stepped forward again. His Blood Qi boiled, and his terrifying explosive power brought him close to Yun Fei in an instant.
"What?"
Yun Fei was horrified. At once, she no longer held back, pushing both her Breathing Technique and Talent Ability to their limits.
Boom!
Jiang Li's punch missed, and the surrounding air seemed to be blasted apart beneath his fist.
Yun Fei landed some distance away, then retreated again to open up a safe distance.
Without realizing it, fine cold sweat had already formed across her forehead.
It had been a long time since she had felt such pressure. Her heart hammered wildly.
Especially when she saw the Martial Soul behind Jiang Li, she was utterly shocked.
She had personally witnessed Jiang Li awaken his Talent Ability, but wasn't his Talent Ability that tiny Command Flag?
What the hell was this Headless Martial Soul's ability!?
Still not enough?
Jiang Li inhaled sharply. His heart burned like blazing fire and pounded madly, while the Blood Qi within his body became scorching hot.
Behind him, his Martial Soul's Blood Qi Amplification was fully activated.
A towering momentum erupted from Jiang Li's body. His terrifying Blood Qi made even Yun Fei feel an unprecedented pressure.
It was as though the young man before her, his eyes tightly shut, was as terrifying as an Ancient Fierce Beast.
Whoosh!
The air was torn apart once more as Jiang Li erupted across the sparring arena.
With his Blood Qi Value raised once again, his explosive power surged by another great margin.
Run!
Facing Jiang Li in this state, this was Yun Fei's only thought.
His punch missed, but Jiang Li did not hesitate in the slightest. He immediately pursued her, throwing another punch.
At this moment, the sparring arena seemed like a mad lion hunting a crafty rabbit. Relying on Godspeed, Yun Fei constantly dodged ahead of him.
But the more she dodged, the more alarmed Yun Fei became.
Because she could clearly feel that Jiang Li was constantly closing the distance between them, and it was becoming increasingly difficult for her to evade him.
That could only mean that Jiang Li was adapting to her speed.
Yet her speed had already been pushed to its utmost limit.
A-Class Talent Abilities were difficult to cultivate as well. At twenty-two, being able to wield it proficiently already allowed her to look down on her peers.
Suddenly, a terrifying gale howled in from behind. Yun Fei was about to dodge, only to discover that this time, Jiang Li's fist gave her no chance to evade.
This punch was actually another notch faster than before.
I can't escape!
The thought surfaced in Yun Fei's mind. Gritting her teeth, she turned around with all her strength and crossed her arms before her chest once more.
Bang!
With a deafening crash, Jiang Li's fist slammed into Yun Fei's crossed arms.
From this blow, Yun Fei felt as though her arms were about to break. The terrifying Giant Strength also sent a shock through her internal organs.
The force of this punch was practically at the Sixth Grade!
With incomparably shocked thoughts racing through her mind, Yun Fei hit the ground and bounced up again. Only then did she adjust her posture, sliding several meters backward in a half-kneeling stance before finally stopping.
Her face was flushed red, and her Blood Qi churned violently.
Now, Yun Fei understood how Lu Dajun had died.
She looked up and saw an illusory outline enveloping Jiang Li's body, like a suit of armor.
Only then did Jiang Li slowly open his eyes, meeting Yun Fei's beautiful eyes, filled with complex emotions.
"Thank you for holding back, Senior Sister!" Jiang Li dispersed his Martial Soul and revealed a brilliant smile.
Holding back?
Yun Fei slowly rose to her feet, then rolled her eyes fiercely.
"Held back my ass. You nearly broke through my defenses."
"Jiang Li, I'm starting to wonder whether you really are human..."
"Or a demon beast!"
