Chapter 56 Challenge Accepted!

"Dao, you're up."

"Cough. M-Me?"

Pingjun Dao looks at Hua Meili with disbelief, eyes wide and mouth open.

"Yes, you."

"Him? But his just an ordinary human!"

Lian Pian looked at Pingjun Dao with a disdainful look.

Being stared down by her like that, Pingjun Dao grew irritated with her attitude and quickly agreed without thinking.

He felt that she was not only looking down at him but also at his goddess, Hua Meili.

If he backs down in this fight, he will not be only letting down himself but also his Boss!

He must not let others look down on his awesome Boss who at the wave of her hand could send them all flying.

As her subordinate, he must let them see just how capable he was so that his Boss' seat will be held up high.

"Hmp! Don't look down on me just because I'm only an ordinary human! You just wait and see how this ordinary human beat you later!"

"You will regret this! I will show you the difference between us!"

Lian Pian felt that it was too funny being challenged by a nobody ordinary human who she could easily beat with just a hand.

She looked at Pingjun Dao with a hmphed and strutted off.

"Why are you fighting over a friendly match? This is only to compare notes not a competition to the death."

Hua Meili smiled gently at the group before her smile turned stern.

"In this fight, anyone who tries to intentionally cause harm or kill your opponents will face severe punishments worse than death. Understand?"

Hua Meili who had a 180-degree change in attitude looked at them with cold eyes. It was so bitingly cold.

They did not think that the usually gentle and kind angel would have such a scary side in her.

She was too scary that they thought that she was another person or is this just another case of a hidden yandere?

"Yes ma'am!!" Everyone said stiffly and loudly agreed.

They did not dare to reject or oppose her decisions.

"Alright. Tomorrow, the competition will be held at nine o'clock sharp. Dispersed."

Everyone quickly dispersed and went back to what they were doing before the meeting.

Jin Hua's group went back to practice while Hua Meili's group continue to eat snacks. They did not care at all that tomorrow would be a battle they would never forget.

"Whaaa!! Do you think that I could really defeat her?! That bitch is really getting on my nerves! What's wrong with being a normal human?!"

Pingjun Dao who just awakened from his anger complained to his Boss about his thoughts and disdain for the slut.

Also, he was kind of regretting accepting the challenge on a whim without knowing if he could win against her.

But he must win at all costs because he will be shaming his Boss if he lost to that arrogant woman!

"Everything!" Everyone said matter of factly.

Even Hua Meili who doesn't usually join the bullying of one of her team members also agreed with what they had said.

What Lian Pian said about ordinary humans being weak is true after all. That fact would never change.

If it were before, being a normal ordinary human is alright. It is even the norm.

But now that it's the Apocalypse, if you are an ordinary human then you are abnormal!

If you are ordinary then you either go and die or sell your flesh! You only had two choices and that is final!

"Ugh! Alright. I know ordinary humans are weak and can't be compared to an evolutionary human but that is why I'm in trouble! Why did I have to say that? This mouth of mine!"

Pingjun Dao slap his mouth again and again because it was the cause of his trouble. Not that it would change anything since what's done is done and could never be undone.

"What are you scared about? Do not worry, you will defeat her. Just be confident in your strength."

Hua Meili tried to reassure her silly subordinate whose soul had long flown away.

'Though he is an ordinary human, Lian Pian is an overly arrogant idiot anyway. Who will win is not yet decided.'

"Really? Can I believe you? Can I really defeat her?"

Pingjun Dao looked at her like a ray of sunshine amidst the darkness, she was his last and final hope. She is the only one who can help him now.

"Xiao Mei, are you speaking the truth?"

Guo Zhongcheng was also curious if the big guy could really defeat the hateful Lian Pian during the match even though Pingjun Dao is only a human, an ordinary one at that.

"Is that possible, Mei'er?" Jin Hua also asked.

"Of course, it's possible. With the right card, you would be able to win against her. Strength is not all there is to defeat an enemy, what use is brawn if you don't use your brains."

Hua Meili slyly explained that everything is possible if you just use your head and not just your strength.

"How can I defeat her?"

"Simple. Just use your experience in fighting enemies against her. You're a veteran in fighting and she is just a newbie. Use the thing that you are most good at against her."

"Can I really defeat her with just the way I am?"

It's not that he does not believe her but he could not trust himself.

"To be honest, she is not that strong. She is not even as strong as Guo Zhongcheng so you could definitely defeat her. How long did you last sparring with Zhong ge?"

Hua Meili happily munches on the pastries while waiting for Pingjun Dao's reply.

'Hexin's pastries are really to die for!'

"Five strikes."

Pingjun Dao scratches his cheeks, embarrassed. He was so ashamed that his face turned to beat red.

"That's more than I thought! An ordinary person can't last one strike from Zhong ge. I guess you really have the ability and physic to go one on one with a Phase 1 evolutionary. You can even defeat 2 - 3 Phase 1 Mutants, what's more, if there is only one Phase 1?"

"Can I? Really?"

"Of course, you can! Now don't think too much and just focus on defeating her, okay? Now go!"

Hua Meili quickly chased him away after giving him the advice that he needed, leaving him to think by himself.

It is enough to give him some clues but not the entire story. He needed to think for it for himself if he wanted to win.

Not at all times she would be there for him in the future, he must also think for himself than always relying on her.

If he becomes too dependent, he might not improve.

Adversity makes improvement!

"Will he be okay?" They all looked at her.

"Trust me, he will be okay."
