No one disturbed Ye Lin. After finishing their exchanges, the four tacitly headed to Huang Liang's place to familiarize themselves with their abilities.
This time, even An Ke had no advice to offer on enhancements.
After completing his exchanges, Ye Lin's strength had nearly caught up to that of her former team captain. Factoring in that unknown ability, the two might even be close in combat power.
His growth was astonishingly fast, yet perfectly reasonable upon closer consideration.

The former had only one point left after each examination, making it difficult to enhance themselves. The latter had ten times as many points to spend on enhancements, and the snowball effect would only widen that gap.
