“Yes,” Lin Lan nodded earnestly, not minding Luo Ziling’s surprise.

“Some other day, I want to go back.” Luo Ziling was not in the mood to fight today.

It could also be said that he never intended to fight anyone at any time.

“No way!” Lin Lan persisted stubbornly, “You promised me just now.”

Luo Ziling fell speechless but eventually bit the bullet and said, “Then I admit defeat, is that okay?”

Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head, “No.”

“Then take me to see her,” Luo Ziling said, a bit irritated, “It should be fine if I don’t fight back and let her hit me, right?”

“No,” Lin Lan was getting annoyed as well.

“I’m not interested. I want to go back; I have something tonight, something very important.”

Lin Lan said with disdain, “It’s just a date with that woman surnamed Yang.”

“You know about that too?” Luo Ziling was stunned.

Lin Lan curled her lips, looking at Luo Ziling as if he were an idiot.

“Have you been monitoring my movements all along?” Luo Ziling became angry on the spot, “What gives you the right to monitor me?”

“You’re overthinking it,” Lin Lan scoffed, “We’re busy and don’t have the time to watch your every move.”

This comment hurt Luo Ziling even more, but after stammering for a while, he didn’t know what to say.

“Come with me,” Lin Lan said, and then started walking.

Luo Ziling thought about it and eventually followed.

After walking past several buildings and around several walls, Luo Ziling followed Lin Lan to a very open woodland area.

Looking around, Luo Ziling realized that this was the training ground for Lin Lan and her comrades, as he saw various training facilities.

When Lin Lan led him to a relatively open space, Luo Ziling saw a very tall woman standing there, but he could not see her face clearly because the woman was wearing a mask that left only her eyes, nose, and mouth visible.

The eyes of the masked woman that were exposed had an indifferent expression, yet meeting her gaze gave one a chilling sensation.

However, Luo Ziling was not at all daunted by the masked woman’s eyes; instead, he was filled with rage.

“Is this the person you’re talking about?” Luo Ziling asked Lin Lan angrily, “She wants to compete with me but won’t even show her face; that’s too disrespectful.”

As he spoke, Luo Ziling didn’t wait for Lin Lan’s reaction and turned to leave, “I’m going. I don’t have this much time to play with you.”

Lin Lan and the other woman didn’t expect Luo Ziling to drop an unhappy remark and turn away. They looked at each other in surprise, then Lin Lan quickly followed after him, “Why are you leaving?”

She was very angry that Luo Ziling had shown her such disrespect; meeting their squadron leader, he looked displeased and even showed his dissatisfaction. She really wanted to kick him away.

“What is it?” Seeing Lin Lan rush up to block him, Luo Ziling asked with a frown, “I said, I’m not in the mood to play with you today; I’m going back.”

After pausing for a moment, she added, “If you’re unwilling to take me, then I’ll walk back by myself.”

“Hold on,” Lin Lan hadn’t replied when the woman with the covered face spoke up, “Tell me why you don’t want to spar with me.”

As she spoke, the masked woman had already reached Luo Ziling and Lin Lan’s side, moving incredibly fast.

Her voice was actually quite pleasant to hear, but her tone was so cold it was somewhat uncomfortable to listen to.

Based on the speed of the woman’s movement, Luo Ziling immediately deduced that she was extremely skilled with exceptionally quick hands.

His strength in combat skills was speed, something his grandfather had repeatedly stressed for him to improve.

“In the world of martial arts, only speed is invincible,” a line often said in martial arts novels, but also the essence of martial arts training.

If you can strike quickly, taking down your opponent before they can react, then no matter how capable they are, or even if they have firearms or similar weapons, they won’t be able to touch you.

Luo Ziling’s specialty was his extraordinary speed, and apart from his grandfather who taught him martial arts, he had never encountered anyone with faster moves than his.

Seeing the mobility of the masked woman beside him, he knew that her striking speed was very quick, quite possibly not slower than his own.

However, Luo Ziling was not worried. Instead, he looked at the masked woman coldly, with neither servility nor overbearing pride, he replied, “Firstly, I don’t wish to fight with people for no reason; secondly, I don’t wish to test my martial arts against someone who doesn’t respect me. You cover your face, unwilling to show me your true self, why should I spar with you?”

These people must have too much time on their hands. He was terribly busy, about to meet Yang Qingyin for a date, which was incredibly important. Why on earth were they so insistent on challenging him to a martial arts duel?

Last time he fought with Mountain Eagle and Falcon, it was an unannounced battle, but since they showed their true faces and were men, Luo Ziling, who fought with them out of the blue, held no grudge.

Fighting with a woman was actually the most boring thing.

If you win, others will say you’re bullying a woman, willing to fight with one; and if you lose, then your reputation will be down the drain, with no face to see people in the future.

Seeing Luo Ziling’s resolute refusal, the woman didn’t say anything else, but she gave Lin Lan a meaningful look.

Lin Lan got the message and immediately stepped back.

As Lin Lan was stepping back, the masked woman didn’t hesitate to make a move.

A spinning kick, carrying the sound of the wind, was directed at Luo Ziling from legs that were even longer than Lin Lan’s.

As Lin Lan quickly stepped back, Luo Ziling sensed something was off and immediately dodged back, but it was a step too late. Before he could reach a safe distance, the masked woman’s long leg was already coming his way.

Nimbly leaning back between two trees, Luo Ziling squatted down with great agility, grabbing the trunks with both hands, and narrowly avoided the masked woman’s vicious sweep.

The leg, accompanied by the sound of wind, swept overhead, but after missing her target, the masked woman didn’t stop her attacks, continuing to make her moves.

Another direct kick, aimed straight at Luo Ziling.

But by this time, Luo Ziling was no longer as frantic as before. While crouching down and holding onto the tree trunk, he agilely adjusted his body’s position. While still crouching, he took advantage of the moment to slip the bag off his back and shoulders, tossing it onto the grass.

As the masked woman’s direct kick came, Luo Ziling deftly dodged to the side, his speed even faster than the woman’s.

Luo Ziling, having narrowly dodged her attacks twice in quick succession, surprised the masked woman, but she did not cease her assault, swinging her long leg once more toward Luo Ziling. Faced with an unwarranted attack, Luo Ziling’s fighting spirit was kindled.

He no longer dodged but instead lashed out fiercely with his own kick, ready to meet the woman’s challenge head-on.
