Facing Richard's provocation, Bai Jing felt somewhat lacking in confidence, but he still let out a shrill insect cry.
Although Richard's evolution was stronger than his, his strength had not yet reached the point of utterly crushing him. He had the Energy Storage Rule at his side, along with his own complete Combat System.
Even if Richard was stronger than him, he could at most suppress him by a single level.
