Chapter 396 - 368: Overwhelming
An attack from above and below left Lin Tian with no chance to dodge.
The others, witnessing Tian Hu and Bai Ming strike at Lin Tian simultaneously, all bore an expression of reluctance. Facing such an assault, they questioned themselves how they could possibly evade it.
But Lin Tian was not like them. With his Neural Response Speed Ability activated, his movements were ghostly—as if by some unbelievable speed, the attacks of the two men missed him entirely.
"Hehe... So slow, and you think you can hit me?" Lin Tian said with a mocking face, looking at the two men.
"Humph," Tian Hu and Bai Ming both snorted coldly, exchanging glances that conveyed perfect understanding, and then launched another coordinated assault, one attacking from above and the other from below, with ruthless ferocity that made those around them feel their scalps tingle.
Shen Mengyi, watching Lin Tian narrowly evade the attacks of both men time and again, felt her heart soar with tension, especially as Tian Hu's fist grazed Lin Tian's face—it seemed as though her breathing stopped, and her fingers clenched tightly together, so tightly that her knuckles turned somewhat white.
"Tch, watching him be so arrogant, I thought he was something special. It turns out he's only good at hiding," a few girls who didn't like Shen Mengyi started to mock coldly as they saw Lin Tian not initiating an attack.
"You just don't understand, do you? What he's doing is called tactics, letting Tian Hu and Bai Ming wear themselves out." A girl in a black evening dress said.
"What kind of tactic is that? It's just like a turtle, not at all like a man." Another girl, dressed in a pink evening gown, retorted.
Shen Mengyi furrowed her brows, hearing their biting comments back and forth, but she chose not to argue with them at that moment. She was far more concerned with Lin Tian's situation.
Similarly, Wang Zhenyu, watching from his private booth's display screen as Tian Hu and Bai Ming gave Lin Tian only the chance to dodge, felt extremely satisfied.
He poured himself a glass of red wine, sipped it lightly, then the corners of his mouth revealed a smug smile as he spoke. "Competing against me, Wang Zhenyu, you're not yet qualified."
Tian Hu and Bai Ming were very much in sync, giving Lin Tian no chance to rest, always maintaining a high-frequency rate of attacks. What frustrated them was that no matter how they attacked, Lin Tian narrowly evaded each one.
At first, they thought they weren't fast enough, but even after increasing their speed, the result was the same, leaving them with a sense of powerlessness as if exerting their full strength against cotton, it was extremely stifling.
"Kid, is dodging all you know how to do?" Tian Hu eventually couldn't help but curse loudly.
"Hehe... Missing me is just a sign of your lack of skill, how can you blame me for just dodging?" Lin Tian responded to Tian Hu's curse with an easy smile.
"Hmph, you're like a woman. Have the guts to face me head-on." Bai Ming also snorted coldly, clearly upset with Lin Tian's evasive tactics.
"Hehe... and you two ganging up on me, why don't you say that you're acting like women?" Lin Tian taunted with a sneer, his lips curving up into a slightly sinister smile. "But since you're so eager to be smacked, I'll oblige."
With those words, Lin Tian unleashed his Ox Power Technique Superpower, throwing a punch right at the fist of the approaching Tian Hu.
"Boom!" The clashing fists created a thunderous sound. Then a tremendous force burst forth from Lin Tian's fist, sending Tian Hu flying backward.
"Bang Bang..." Tian Hu fell to the ground with shock in his eyes. What was that force just now? How could it be so immense? Was it really something a person could exert?
"Pugh..." Suddenly, a sweet taste filled his throat, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
The turnaround was so swift, so rapid that everyone failed to react at first. Only when they saw Tian Hu cough up blood did disbelief color their faces as they exclaimed.
"No way, how is this possible?"
"Wow, that's amazing."
"Monster, huh."
"..."
Lin Tian didn't care what they said, he turned his gaze toward Bai Ming and revealed a mocking expression. "This is my strength. Do you still want to give it a try?"
"Hmph, what if I do?" Bai Ming snorted, but inside, a tumultuous wave was rising. He couldn't believe Lin Tian's strength was great enough to make someone spit blood with a single punch. How much power was that? He was certain he couldn't do it.
But to admit he was scared in front of so many people, he couldn't do that either, so he chose to continue fighting Lin Tian. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire
This time, his expression was somewhat solemn. He had sparred with Tian Hu before and knew of Tian Hu's abilities. Although Tian Hu wasn't as good as himself, they weren't far apart. If Tian Hu wasn't a match for Lin Tian, then he wouldn't be either. He only hoped he wouldn't lose too miserably.
"Hehe… Did anyone ever tell you that playing the hero comes with a price?" Lin Tian didn't care what was going on in Bai Ming's mind. He only knew that this bastard had provoked him and was going to get beaten by him.
"Whoosh!"
Lin Tian's Neural Response Speed Ability kicked into overdrive, transforming his body into a blur as he charged at Bai Ming.
"Hiss…" The crowd watched as Lin Tian turned into a series of blurs, all drawing in a sharp breath of cold air. They had thought Lin Tian's speed was at its limits before, only to realize it wasn't his fastest. It turned out that previously, he was just toying with them like one teases a chick.
"How is this possible?" Bai Ming, unable to capture Lin Tian's movements, cried out in alarm as his pupils suddenly constricted. Such speed was simply unattainable by normal people.
"Bang!" But before his surprise could settle, Lin Tian's fist had already landed on his chest, sending him flying backward with a tremendous force.
"Bang!" Right before he hit the ground, another force from behind knocked him back.
"Bang bang bang..."
Back and forth, who knows how many times like a ping-pong ball, Bai Ming was pummeled without any power to retaliate.
"Bang!" Finally, Lin Tian stopped toying around and punched Bai Ming to the ground, just like Tian Hu, Bai Ming 'spurted' out a mouthful of fresh blood.
At that moment, his eyes were filled with deep fear. Too strong, this person was way too strong, unbelievably so, not someone humans could compete with.
Even in the military, he had never heard of anyone with such speed or power.
Silence, a deathly silence.
At this moment, as everyone in the private room watched Bai Ming get beaten by Lin Tian like a dog, they all fell silent. They stared with their mouths agape, utterly speechless. It was just like watching Superman.
"Hero, please take me as your disciple."
"I want to have your babies."
"I'm madly in love with you, be my husband."
"..."
They were crazy at that moment, forgetting they were luminaries of high society who'd been taught since childhood to always maintain their composure no matter what.
What do you think?
