The outco of the match took everyone by surprise, and Luo Min’s masterful execution of that bizarre Finger Technique left a profound impression on the spectators.
So entertainnt reporters and talent agencies had already marked her down as a person of interest.
She had acted in a TV series, had a great image, and possessed incredible Martial Arts skills. She was very likely to go far in the national tournant.
All these selling points had the potential to beco a hot topic.
Unlike the layn, the Martial Artists in attendance all had narrowed eyes and grave expressions.
This was especially true for Wang Dalong and Cai Zhengyang.
With their level of perception, they couldn’t even fully track the blur of Luo Min’s fingers.
’If you can’t even see your opponent’s movents, how are you supposed to counter their attacks?’
"That Finger Technique of hers is formidable! It’s not just fast—it’s incredibly lethal."
Cai Zhengyang said with rare solemnity.
Wang Dalong nodded, remaining silent.
"Brother Rui, what did you think of her Finger Technique? I don’t know why, but it gives the creeps! And I’m not just bad-mouthing her, I swear."
Next to them, Shen Xinzhu suddenly leaned in close to Zhao Rui and whispered in his ear.
"Maybe it’s just because it’s so fast!"
Zhao Rui smiled, but his expression was anything but relaxed.
Luo Min’s Martial Arts pushed speed to its absolute limit. If she were to advance to the Grandmaster Realm, its power would likely be even more terrifying.
’This Martial Art feels a lot like the Exorcism Sword Manual from my past life, emphasizing speed and Body Techniques.’
’And based on the fact that Luo Min never showed this kind of power before, it was probably mastered very quickly.’
’Putting it all together, isn’t this basically the Evil-Exorcising Sword Pointing?’
’That woman is definitely trouble.’
Just as everyone’s minds were racing with chaotic thoughts, the referee announced the final result of the match.
Luo Min had won first place in the provincial tournant.
An ecstatic Wang Zhanshan quickly rose to his feet and applauded, and everyone else followed suit.
The entire venue thundered with applause.
Luo Min descended from the stage with a smile, imdiately sward by the adoring crowd.
Her parents and relatives had already gathered around, basking in this mont of glory.
The post-match activities, including the award ceremony, lasted for the better part of the day.
Once the dust had settled, the audience gradually dispersed. The vast Martial Arts Training Base returned to its usual quiet.
After the tournant, Zhao Rui searched the Martial Arts Arena for Yang Fan but couldn’t find him. When he called, the guy said he had already left.
Zhao Rui figured his significant other must have been unhappy and insisted on leaving.
That wasn’t too surprising.
So he didn’t give it another thought. Instead, he went to the parking lot, got his car, and drove it over to wait in front of the building where they were staying.
A short while later, an all-packed Miao Miaomiao ca bouncing out, small suitcase in hand, and hopped into the car.
At the sa ti, the other team mbers ca downstairs with Coach Wang.
"You bought a car? A Jeep, no less? Nice!"
Wang Zhanshan gave the car’s body a hearty slap.
"Hey, easy there, Coach! Go easy on it, this thing was expensive!"
"You big baby!"
Hearing the two of them banter, the other team mbers crowded over to get a look at Zhao Rui’s "new" car.
Just then, Shen Xinzhu glanced at Zhao Rui’s Jeep and Miao Miaomiao in the passenger seat, then asked.
"Brother Rui, can I ride with you, too? I don’t want to take the bus!"
"Sure, why not."
It was just a ride, so of course Zhao Rui didn’t mind. He then looked at the others and asked, "Anyone else want a ride? I guarantee it’s more comfortable than the bus."
Hearing this, Wang Zhanshan tapped on the car window. "Stop showing off your car and get going!"
Zhao Rui chuckled, started the car, and drove away from the Martial Arts Training Base.
After they had been driving for a while, Shen Xinzhu, sitting in the back, let her eyes wander for a mont before asking with feigned casualness, "Brother Rui, Luo Min’s Martial Arts are so incredible. How co we’ve never seen her use them before?"
"That’s her own private business. It’s nothing strange."
Zhao Rui replied coolly. ’It’s not just Luo Min who’s suspicious,’ he thought. ’This Shen Xinzhu is definitely trouble, too.’
"Oh, I guess so!"
Seeing that Zhao Rui wasn’t taking the bait, Shen Xinzhu could only offer a placating smile and change the subject.
After so idle chatter, they reached the school. Once Shen Xinzhu was dropped off, Zhao Rui continued on with Miao Miaomiao, driving in the direction of her house.
"Is sothing on your mind?"
Miao Miaomiao hesitated for a mont before asking, "Is it about Luo Min?"
Zhao Rui nodded and then told her what had happened with Qin Rui.
Miao Miaomiao was stunned. She never imagined sothing like that could have happened.
She frowned. "You think Luo Min might also be..."
"There’s a strong possibility. But her eyes are clear and she’s acting normally. It doesn’t look like she’s been subjected to so hidden technique. It’s more likely she willingly learned their Martial Arts."
If the one who had used such a technique was soone on the level of an Old Demon, then given Luo Min’s talent and disposition, it was highly likely she had learned his Martial Arts willingly.
"Well, should we... tell Coach Wang about this?"
"It would be useless to tell him. Anyone who makes it to the national Martial Arts tournant has a few unique skills up their sleeve. There’s nothing wrong with learning powerful Martial Arts."
"I just wanted to remind you to keep your distance from Luo Min."
"Okay, don’t worry. My Charm Immortal Technique has already reached the stage of Great Success. I’ll be fine."
"Don’t get careless."
Zhao Rui patiently admonished her a few more tis, but he was still relatively confident in Miao Miaomiao’s ability to protect herself.
For one, her father was a veteran expert at the Grandmaster Realm, so her safety wasn’t really a concern.
For another, she had already mastered the Charm Immortal Technique, which was exceptionally effective at countering certain Divine Soul Techniques.
That was sothing he had verified himself.
He was assured of her safety.
The warning was just a precaution.
After driving for a little longer, the car arrived in front of Miao Miaomiao’s apartnt building.
"Want to co up for a bit?"
Miao Miaomiao looked at Zhao Rui, her smiling eyes curving into crescents.
