Chapter 24: The Inevitable Losing Bet (Part 1)

  At the entrance of the tenth level, Huo Ling'er and the white-clothed youth fought a hard-to-separate battle. The white-clothed youth was ultimately defensive-minded, and his occasional attacks couldn't cause any actual harm to Huo Ling'er. From this, it can be seen that he just wanted to delay time after all.

  "Stop it and I won't bother you."

  The white-clothed man's words were no longer a joke from the beginning. Every sentence was serious, and he really didn't want Huo Ling'er to pass the trial successfully.

  "Why? Our interests aren't in conflict, are they?"

  Huǒ Líng'er swung out a heavy punch, she always thought the man was joking with him again, the man's personality was too unpredictable, she never knew what he wanted.

  The man in white clothes pressed down on Huo Ling'er's fist, and after pinning her completely to the wall, he smiled coldly "Kitty, unfortunately, you can only stay here."

  "Daydream!"

  Huǒ Língér's foot stepped on the man's palm, and the force of her foot was no less than 200 kilograms.

  But unexpectedly, the man in white stood still, and Huo Ling'er's foot seemed to have not landed on his body.

  "Let me go, I've said it before, we're not enemies, you don't have to target me!!" Huo Ling'er was very weak, the man's strength was much greater than hers, and during the fight he didn't even use his true power.

  Huǒ Língér isn't someone who can't afford to lose, she understands that the man's identity and status must not be simple, she doesn't need to offend a powerful invisible opponent, after all, the two people may not meet again in the future.

  "Kitty, I told you before, stop it!" The man in white clothes said with a bad tone.

  "Give me a reason!" Huo Ling'er raised her head stubbornly.

  "What if I say no?"

  "You're absolutely crazy!"

  Huǒ Líng'er thought that the two people had no possibility of talking, the man's attitude was sincere or false, what his purpose was, and why he would appear here, she really didn't know anything.

  Huolinger endured in her heart and thought for a moment, feeling that the two of them talking like this wasn't going to work out well. She believed that striving for her own goal was most important.

  "Let's make a bet."

  "What is it?" The man in white replied quickly, looking confident enough.

  For some reason, Huo Ling'er felt particularly displeased when she heard him say this. After all, she was also an extremely powerful person, and knocking down ten or eight strong men outside was no big deal. But now it had lost its effect.

  Huǒ Líng'er pried open the man's palm, her attitude was very resolute. "Let's have a competition, in a moment, we two will rush into the final together. If your speed is faster than mine, then I lose. If my speed is faster than yours, then you lose. If you lose, you can't interfere with my freedom. On the contrary, if I lose, I won't ask for the final reward. How about it? Do you have confidence to gamble with me this once?"

  "Oh? That's quite interesting."

  The white-clothed man's hands completely let go of Huo Ling'er, forcing her body to retreat several steps back, just keeping a distance.

  After a moment of silence, the white-clothed man's gaze swept from Huo Ling'er's head to her toes, his tone calm and leisurely. "Cat, your ending will still be the same."

  "You're quite confident! No need for further ado, I'll take my leave first."

  Huǒ Líng'er didn't wait for the white-clothed man to prepare and very cunningly slipped into the last entrance.

  Before she could even savor her triumph for a few seconds, the man in white swiftly overtook her by a wide margin. His nimble movements and precise judgment left her staring blankly behind him.

  To be honest, there has never been a man who truly made Huo Ling'er admire him, and there has never been a man who truly made Huo Ling'er understand what distance means.

  After sighing, Huo Ling'er made a silent decision - she would have a serious match with him, even if she were to lose, even if she knew there was no chance of winning.

  Energy transformed into a gentle breeze giving her spiritual strength, and in the next moment, Huo Ling'er's elegant figure merged with the terrifying final level.
