June 1, 342, 15:00.
In the living room of Tang Li's house, the sofa, coffee table, television, and other furniture were moved aside, clearing the center space.
Tang Li and Peng Yue stood facing each other in the cleared area.
After returning from the black market, Tang Li did not spar with Peng Yue immediately. Instead, she ate lunch, took a nap, and then came to demonstrate her strength.
Originally, Tang Li felt that with the combat experience accumulated in her previous life and this strong, powerful body, she could defeat Peng Yue by sheer force alone.
At first, she was even worried that her strength was too great and she might injure Peng Yue, so she didn't go all out.
However, after a few exchanges, she discovered that no matter what moves she made, Peng Yue seemed to anticipate them, always dodging in time.
She had strength but felt like she was hitting cotton.
After that, Tang Li used more strength each time, and her speed increased with each subsequent attempt...
However, principles like "strength overcomes all" and "in martial arts, speed is king" seemed to be invalid in front of Peng Yue.
Or rather, although Tang Li possessed great strength and speed, her moves were all within Peng Yue's prediction. Even though his strength and speed were not as great as Tang Li's, he could always react a step ahead of her.
However, Tang Li, who was on the field, was not the one who couldn't take it anymore; Peng Yixuan, who was spectating, couldn't hold back first.
"Old Peng, don't just keep dodging! Take a stance!"
Hearing Peng Yixuan's voice, Peng Yue turned his head to look. Peng Yixuan quickly covered her mouth.
Then, Peng Yue said to Tang Li:
"Little Li, you don't need to test me slowly anymore. I've roughly understood your strength. Just give it your all, and we'll decide the winner in one move."
Tang Li nodded and said, "Okay!"
She probably knew that she couldn't defeat Peng Yue.
What she needed to do now was to showcase her strength as much as possible, join his team, learn these profound martial arts techniques from him, and perhaps even become his disciple.
This match was to test Tang Li's intrinsic strength, so neither of them wore mechanical exoskeletons.
At this moment, Tang Li concentrated, storing power in her legs, and lunged forward with a powerful kick towards Peng Yue. Simultaneously, her arms began to accumulate strength, preparing to attack Peng Yue at any moment.
However, before she could reach Peng Yue, she saw Peng Yue charging towards her.
Without even seeing how Peng Yue moved, Tang Li felt her entire body lift into the air, changing direction with Peng Yue's movements.
The power stored in her legs, and the continuously increasing speed and kinetic energy from her run, were all easily neutralized by Peng Yue.
Tang Li quickly threw a punch towards Peng Yue.
As before, it was easily dodged by Peng Yue.
But as Peng Yue dodged, coupled with the immense force of Tang Li's punch, he lost his grip. Tang Li was directly thrown out, hurtling rapidly towards a wall!
Seeing this, Tang Li reacted quickly.
In mid-air, she twisted her waist and bent her highly flexible legs downwards, attempting to quickly make contact with the ground and control her forward momentum.
However, it was too late!
The moment her left foot touched the ground, her head was already at the wall. In just an instant, Tang Li's head would smash into it!
Even with Tang Li's strong physique, it was no match for the wall.
Moreover, the force and speed were generated by Tang Li herself, making it incredibly powerful.
Watching the wall rapidly approach, Tang Li's breathing became rapid, her heart pounding like a drum.
She could already imagine the scene of her head hitting the wall, shattering into pieces, and her brains splattering everywhere!
But she could only watch, unable to do anything.
At this critical juncture, Tang Li suddenly felt a force from her right leg, which had not yet landed, pulling her backward.
Then, Tang Li's entire body was lifted into the air again.
After spinning once, she was pulled away from the wall and flew towards the center of the living room.
Tang Li quickly adjusted her posture and landed nimbly.
After landing, she clutched her chest.
Inside her chest, her heart was still beating rapidly.
Tang Li let out a long sigh of relief.
In that moment, it was the first time since her rebirth that she felt she had been zero distance from death.
It would be too unfair to die by crashing into a wall due to her own excessive strength after being reborn!
"Little Li, you really have great strength. I almost couldn't hold you back..."
Peng Yue also said, his face filled with lingering fear, breathing heavily.
Just now, he had underestimated Tang Li's strength, which caused him to accidentally let her slip, almost hitting the wall.
Fortunately, he managed to grab her in time and pull her back.
Tang Li heard this and asked with a smile, "Uncle Peng, can I join your mercenary team now?"
