When both groups started traveling together, Gong Fen tapped a treasure she had to contact her family about her position. The treasure lit up slightly, making her smile with satisfaction. However, a second after it lit up, she noticed a very faint cracking sound. The sound was basically inaudible, but the feeling was noticeable since she was holding it. ‘Huh?’
Gong Fen took out her hidden hand from the long sleeves of her dress and looked at the item. There were cracks all over it, and the glow around it had dimmed, showing that it was broken. ‘How? I just got it from Daddy. It should not have broken down this easily.’
“Your expression is concerning. Do you have any issues, Lady Gong?”
A mellow and attractive low female voice reached her from the side. Even when it was one of the most pleasant voices she had ever heard, her expression didn’t get better; instead, it soured. Looking over, she realized that, at some point, the woman she hated had been walking by her side. ‘How did I not notice this…’ Looking at the gorgeous pair of large breasts, Gong Fen clenched her teeth. ‘...fat woman getting close!’
Even then, since everyone was looking, Gong Fen forced herself to smile and chuckled. “There is nothing wrong. I just had a small hiccup, Lady Yasenia. Thank you for worrying.”
Gong Fen expected Yasenia to try to appear polite as well. However, Yasenia just smiled and uttered softly. “Oh.” Then, she looked away, not inquiring any further.
Gong Fen’s hand clenched tightly enough that the treasure she was holding exploded and broke apart. “Ah.” Looking at her hand, Gong Fen sighed. ‘How do I call them now?’
Yasenia gave her hand a glance, and her lips arched in mockery. ‘Trying to contact others? Well, you are trapped here with me. How could I let you cut our date short?’
Zhu Zhalong approached and stuck near Yasenia. “Lady Yasenia’s gentleness is truly praiseworthy. I am impressed you managed to notice! Even I had problems doing so.”
‘Ha. I don’t really want to continue playing nicely. How could I do it differently?’ Yasenia pondered for a second before a smile spread on her lips. She looked at him and blurted out. “Don’t worry. It is normal for you not to notice since I barely noticed. The sharpness of my senses as a dragon is worlds apart from a human like you, after all.”
The answer Yasenia came to was one word. Racism! She was going to put into practice everything she learned during her years in Distancia.
Zhu Zhalong’s smile instantly faltered. “What do you mean by that, Lady Yasenia?”
Yasenia blinked and bluntly answered while looking straight at him. Her tone was that of a person who was sure that what she was saying had nothing wrong with it. “As a human, you are inferior in that regard. Humans are good because there are many, but when it comes to individual strength, you all fail to impress me. Something I find quite unattractive.”
Everyone went silent as the tall dragon woman literally called their most talented person weak and uninteresting. Not only he, but the entire group accompanying Gong Fen and Zhu Zhalong were humans, so these words were a literal slap to all of them.
Our girls walking behind them had a hard time holding back their laughter. They couldn’t help but think how lucky Zhu Zhalong was that he talked to them after Yasenia calmed down. If he had tried this before, they wondered if he would’ve already lost his life.
Before Zhu Zhalong could even recover from his shock, Kali approached, making everyone from Yasenia’s camp perk up with interest. ‘Uh oh… Good luck, Zhu Zhalong.’
Kali was wearing her veil. When she approached, she carried with her a pleasant and tempting aroma, which Zhu Zhalong couldn’t help but breathe in. ‘This woman smells so good. Is it perfume?’
However, his thoughts completely halted when Kali spoke. “Lord Zhu Zhalong is really an interesting person. Why would you be interested in Yasenia when you already have Lady Gong Fen? I can smell your scent coming from her and hers from you.”
The people who were expecting this fox woman to have stepped forward to avoid the awkwardness of Yasenia’s comment began sweating coldly. ‘Do all the women in that group not feel any awkwardness when insulting others or placing them in tight spots!? Please, the air around is so tense that I feel like I can cut it with scissors!’
Zhu Zhalong had a statement and question that he had never been asked, waiting to be answered, and he did not know how to react. Thoughts of wanting to charm the dragon woman were clearly roaming his brain. After all, she was the most attractive woman he had ever seen. ‘But this woman is not falling for me.’
He was confident in his appearance, but he understood that these two were clearly not affected. ‘Is my aphrodisiac powder not affecting them? It should be strong enough to make even a Level 10 Legendary beast feel like they’re in heat!’ Remembering what he said a moment ago to Gong Fen about how Yasenia was already in his clutches, a sense of shame washed over him.
However, he was not Zhu ‘Thick-faced’ Zhalong for nothing! He cleared his throat and first answered Yasenia. “While I do admit that beasts are strong, classifying all of us as weaklings is too degrading, don’t you think, Lady Yasenia? You are a woman of class and elegance. You shouldn’t degrade an entire species in that manner.”
Yasenia looked forward and commented with a light tone. “I know no humans near my realm or age that are stronger than me. I am not degrading your species, but stating a fact.” Yasenia smiled. “Humans are weak.”
“That’s quite arrogant, isn’t it?”
The voice of a tall and muscular man came from the side. His height was above Yasenia’s, approaching Andreas. His wide and buff muscular body made Andrea’s athletic physique look lean.
Yasenia looked at the man up and down and asked. “You’ve jumped into the conversation. You must have a lot of confidence in your own strength.” Her lips arched, and her eyes glinted, showing a predatory spark. “Would you like to prove me wrong?”
The man snorted and stepped forward. “I am Ming Zhuang. I am in the top three of the Brutal Warrior Ranks. If you are still confident after hearing this that your frail little arms won’t shatter when clashing with me, you can give it a try.”
Yasenia blinked and asked, genuinely confused. “What’s that?”
Ming Zhuang paused, his eyebrow twitching once. ‘She doesn’t know about the most prestigious mortal-level strength list? Has she been living under a rock during all this time!?’
Still, he kept appearances and proceeded to explain it briefly. Yasenia listened, and the more she heard, the less interested she became. ‘So, it is a tournament where anyone can participate, and people use Spiritual Path body techniques to compete for who has the strongest body…’
When Ming Zhuang finished, Yasenia waved her hand, her previous interest having completely disappeared. “Ah, yeah. Let’s exchange one blow then.”
The man grinned and spoke confidently. “Your courage is indeed that of a dragon. Come at me!”
He took a step forward, his body seemingly swelling as raw physical strength burst out with tremendous pressure. His profound aura made his strength appear menacing and full of strength.
Seeing that he was about to punch without holding back a single bit, many people from Ming Zhuang’s group shook their heads. “He is such a brute. How can he deliver a punch like that to a fair maiden like Lady Yasenia?”
“He might be third, but without techniques, there is no one under the mortal realms who can match his physical power. Lady Yasenia is in trouble.”
“Lady Yasenia might become permanently scarred. Even as a Dragon, she must feel how high his raw strength is. I hope she is not regretting it already.”
Gong Fen’s lips arched faintly, her eyes flashing with joy. ‘Stupid woman. Get stomped! Brother Zhuang is too strong to face without weapons!’
Yasenia observed the incoming punch and gently lifted her fair and smooth hand. The air pressure of the punch touched her palm first.
Ming Zhuang felt his eyes widen with rage at Yasenia’s gesture. ‘She dares try to stop me with one palm strike?’ His face crumpled, and his heel twisted, increasing the strength and momentum of his punch to the limits. ‘Since you won’t drop that arrogance until the last second, just die!’
BOOM!
The air exploded when his punch landed, creating a shockwave that pushed some people back a step. Gong Fen’s lips arched happily, feeling that Yasenia must’ve been splattered like a red balloon all around the place.
Looking over, she expected to see blood. However, the image she saw left her speechless.
Yasenia was standing a few meters behind, dragging marks below her feet as she had been pushed back slightly. However, other than that and a slightly red mark on her pristine and white palm, there were no other indications that Yasenia had been hurt.
A person asked, confused. “What happened?”
Another scratched his cheek. “I am unsure. I certainly saw how Ming Zhuang’s punch landed on Lady Yasenia’s palm. But after that, I was forced to close my eyes from the shockwave. Did Lady Yasenia really block him with just one palm?”
A woman at the side snorted. “Shut up! Brother Zhuang must’ve held back! How could such a weak-looking woman resist a single punch from Brother Zhuang!”
Meanwhile, Ming Zhuang looked at Yasenia as if she were a monster. He was 100 percent sure that he had used his entire strength for that punch. Of course, there were some buffing skills that he didn’t use. However, regarding raw strength and technique, he had delivered a peak-strength punch that could flatten several mountains at once.
Yasenia looked at her palm and blinked twice. “Oh! Not bad, I feel some tingling. That punch had some weight behind it.”
The girls behind were actually impressed. Angel muttered, surprised. “To make Yasenia feel an actual tingling, his physical prowess must be very impressive!”
Cecile nodded. “He would’ve been a good match if Yasenia was still in the low levels of the fifth realm instead at the peak of the middle-level ones.”
Andrea crossed her arms and spoke aloud. “Love! He is quite a good man, don’t cripple him.”
Yasenia tilted her head and looked at Andrea. She thought she was joking, but seeing her serious expression, the dragoness nodded obediently. “Hm~. Sure. I won’t permanently cripple him.”
Andrea smiled and looked at Ming Zhuang. “Hey, if you don’t want to die, use everything you have to defend her punch.” Ming Zhuang looked over and saw Andrea raise her thumb. “Good luck surviving a Dragon’s punch!”
Ming Zhuang felt his heart shiver for a second. Then, he looked at Yasenia and saw her walk toward him with a faint smile. “Grit your teeth.”
A flash of light crossed his vision as the dragoness’s body basically teleported in front of him and punched forward.
‘Monster!’ Ming Zhuang crossed his arms and used all his defensive techniques at once when the terrifying pressure enveloped him.
BOOOOOOM!
The entire place shook from the punch’s aftermath as Ming Zhuang became a shooting star and flew black for several kilometers.
