After dozens of rounds, Tana was drenched in sweat, her breathing heavy.
Seizing an opening, she leaped back to create some distance, propped her Heavy Hammer on the ground, and yelled, out of breath, "I'm done! I'm done! What's gotten into you? How did you suddenly get so much stronger?"
Xu Wuyi relaxed his stance, his breathing steady. Only a few fine beads of sweat dotted his temples.
He smiled but didn't answer directly. "Just a minor breakthrough, that's all."
Tana eyed him suspiciously from head to toe and pouted. "Yeah, right! The scale of this breakthrough is terrifying. I feel like you could smash Luo Liang's turtle shell to pieces with just your brute strength now."
Though she complained, her eyes glinted with the thrill of the hunt.
The stronger her opponent, the more excited she became.
