"Boom Boom!"
The middle-aged man made a futile lunge, rushing forward two steps.
The next second, he abruptly turned his head, looking behind him.
"Pretty smart, huh."
Wang Lingling smiled, "You figured out I'd appear behind you without me even telling you."
In the hall, it was dead silent.
Once could be considered a coincidence.
But what about the second time?
This time, no one among them could see how Wang Lingling managed to appear behind her opponent.
"I lost."
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and bowed deeply to Wang Lingling.
Clearly, the gap between him and this woman was not just a tiny bit.
He had used all his strength once he started, and still couldn't even touch the shadow of his opponent.
"Miss."
He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you really a True Essence Realm Martial Artist?"
To be honest, from their brief clash, he suspected that this girl had likely reached the Meridian Refining Realm.
Otherwise, even as a powerful Martial Artist, he wouldn't have lost so thoroughly.
But a True Essence Realm Martial Artist?
After all, the entire Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association had less than a handful of True Essence Realm Martial Artists.
Not to mention, she looked so young.
"Nonsense."
Wang Lingling glared at him, "Do you think I'd lie to you? Alright, anyone who still isn't convinced, step forward. I have plenty of time today."
At this, she couldn't help but think of Li Ping.
If he hadn't taken the Longevity Technique, she wouldn't be so bored and stirring up trouble here.
Everyone looked at each other, no one made a move.
Some even quietly walked away and took the elevator.
"What's the matter? No one dares to step forward?"
Wang Lingling scanned the crowd, "In that case, bring out your best fighter. Don't worry, I won't do anything to him. Honestly, it's an honor for him to spar with me. Others want this chance but don't have it."
"Is that so?"
Just then, a tall man, surrounded by several others, walked over.
"Brother Gao!"
"Brother Gao's here!"
"Great, Brother Gao is here. Let's see how that woman can still be arrogant!"
The crowd automatically made way, their eyes on the leading man as if they were seeing their savior.
In the association, apart from the most mysterious Chen Fan, the chairperson was the strongest.
Beneath the chairperson was him, Gao Shan, a powerful Martial Artist, said to be just a step away from entering the Meridian Refining Realm.
"Interesting, our association hasn't been this lively in a while," Xu Jie said with a smile.
"I didn't expect someone to come kick our doors in. Little sister, how about letting big sis have a go with you?" Tu Yue said with a smile, though her eyes flashed with wariness.
"Little sister?"
Seeing Tu Yue approach, Wang Lingling narrowed her eyes, "Are you talking to me?"
"Who else?"
Tu Yue smiled, "In our association, besides you, there's no one else causing trouble."
"Causing trouble? Fine, if you think it's trouble, then it's trouble."
Wang Lingling said nonchalantly, "If you're not convinced, you can try to beat me, see if you can send this troublemaker packing."
After speaking, she sneered inwardly.
Anyone else would be fine, but if it's this woman...
She wouldn't mind making her look bad.
"Alright."
Tu Yue smiled.
She had made up her mind to make sure the woman lost face dearly.
"Tu Yue, let me handle this."
Gao Shan's voice rang out.
"Brother Gao," Tu Yue protested, "Didn't you hear her say she wants to fight me? If I don't accept, it'll look like I'm scared of her."
"She's not simple."
Gao Shan shook his head.
His words immediately hushed Xu Jie and the others.
"Brother Gao, what do you mean?" Tu Yue asked instinctively.
"I'll go first and spar with her. If I'm not her match, you can step in," Gao Shan said.
"..."
Xu Jie and the others exchanged glances.
"You've got to be kidding!"
If even Brother Gao wasn't a match for this woman, they'd only lose faster.
"Thank you, Brother Gao."
Realizing what he meant, tears welled up in Tu Yue's eyes.
She knew Gao Shan intentionally said this to save her face in front of everyone.
"Changing opponents again?"
Wang Lingling muttered, "But it doesn't matter, the result will be the same regardless of who steps up, even if you all come together."
"Miss, don't be so arrogant, Brother Gao isn't easy to deal with," someone said.
"That's right, throughout history, overconfidence leads to defeat. Miss, I advise you not to speak too soon and risk embarrassing yourself later."
"Brother Gao, give her a good lesson, show her that Anshan City Martial Arts Association is not to be trifled with!"
Gao Shan remained calm as he walked up to Wang Lingling, clasped his hands in greeting, and unleashed his leg technique like a storm.
Instantly, countless leg shadows filled everyone's vision.
"My God!"
Everyone present swallowed hard.
It was said Brother Gao's specialty was his leg technique.
They rarely even saw Gao Shan in person, let alone witness his leg technique.
But today, they saw it.
"With this leg technique, I wouldn't even have a chance to use Iron Mountain Lean," the middle-aged man who was defeated earlier sighed.
Moreover, this was an attack from a powerful Martial Artist, strong and forceful. Even if he could block it, he wouldn't last long.
Those who praised his Iron Mountain Lean earlier felt the same.
"If Brother Gao is this strong, how powerful must the chairperson be?" someone thought.
"Great, now that woman can't dodge anymore, right?"
"Hmph, let's see her smile now."
Despite their surprise, everyone felt smug.
However, Xu Jie and Tu Yue's faces darkened.
Despite Gao Shan's speed, they could still see clearly.
But they had lost sight of the woman.
In other words, despite Gao Shan's flashy leg technique, he was hitting nothing but air.
"Who is this woman really?" Xu Jie thought anxiously, "Even Brother Gao isn't her match? Could she actually be a True Essence Realm Martial Artist like she claims?"
"Brother Gao..."
Tu Yue felt relieved.
Good thing Gao Shan stopped her earlier.
Otherwise, she'd be the one having to concede, and it'd be humiliating.
"We'll have to inform the chairperson," the Zhao Brothers exchanged glances and nodded.
Finally, the gusts of wind stopped, and the leg shadows in the air vanished.
Gao Shan took a deep breath and said, "I lost."
"What!"
No one could believe their ears.
"I told you, no matter who you send, the result will be the same."
Wang Lingling stretched lazily, looking relaxed, "Not to mention, your footwork display was quite entertaining."
Gao Shan's mouth twitched slightly.
Being outmatched and ridiculed was inevitable.
Talking back would only make him lose both honor and pride.
More importantly, he couldn't bring himself to argue with a woman.
"Brother Gao, lost?"
"Even Brother Gao couldn't touch her?"
"How could this be?"
Only then did everyone slowly react, disbelief written in their eyes.
Did this mean they had to call for the chairperson or Brother Chen?
