Versus Mayi

After separating us I closely observe Mayi she seems to be you ger than me, 1,45 m straigh long brown hair that arribes at her waist, big and cute green eyes, a very fair skin and having a fibrado body surely being trained a lot. She was in essence a very cute girl that without doubt will grow to be a very charming lady.

"Did we meet before, miss Tai?" I ask with a little of doubt. She happily nods saying " Big brother gave me very delicious cookies. And call me Mayi" I smile at her rubbing her hair making her very happy (How cute! It's like being with Rongrong) "Sorry, but I don't remember and you can call me Bai". At that her face changes and almost start to cry " Big brother doesn't like me? He won't gift more cookies?". I quickly interject calming her "No,no. It's only that I have very bad memory and I don't t remembered you but later I will give you the most delicious sweets" . Listening my answer her happy mood return and then she go and sit in a big armchair in the middle of the room returning to her previously indifferent self she ask "And why are we reuniting here" listening it all the emperor members recuperated from their stupor and Yan cough "Ehen! Yeah, like I was saying previously we reunite here to test Ning Bai as a candidate for the Emperor team" Yan turns to me "With your rank, age and background you accomplish all our requirements so in this case you only need to choose one of us an win in a little fight. For your advantage we will present ourself before and later you will decide who you prefer to fight being possible to choose the weakest or someone who you can counter. Of course you can't choose the support system to fight" The Yan turn to the other member.

The first one stands up. He is a handsome youth, average height, moderate weight with short golden hair, a pair of extremely active brown eyes. He presents making and over exaggerated bow "Yu Feng 11 years old rank 31 agility attack system Wind Chime Bird spirit. Nice to meet you!".

Near him another there's another blonde youth seeming more elegant he without standing up waving his hand in a cook way say "Osler 15 years old rank 32 agility attack system Black Leopard spirit".

After him a girl with a graceful figure, long blue hair with the same color of her eyes that not reveals any feeling. She with a pleasant and empty voice does a little courtesy says "Xie Lingling 12 years old rank 31 support system Nine Heart Flowering Apple spirit".

After her Yu Feng signals two people sitting at the floor meditating saying "They are the Shi brother Mò and Mó. It's difficult to differentiate them. They're both 16 years old 32 rank defense system Black Tortoise spirit. They are people of few words don't worry". Both of them having straight nosed and square jawed, built large and sturdy.

Then Yan presents herself "Dugu Yan 15 years old rank 33 control system Jade Phosphor Serpent spirit. Then she turn to Mayi "She is Tai..." Mayi quickly interrupts her jumping with her hand up shouting "Me! Me!" She smile brightly saying "Tai Mayi 10 years old rank 29 attack system Fifteen Ton Ant spirit. Nice to meet you again Big Brother!".

Finally a black haired slender youth stands up. He can't be considerated very handsome with lacking facial expressions a noble aura surrounds him seeming stronger of the people before. He does a little bow saying "I am the leader of the actual Emperor team. I am Yu Tianheng 15 years old rank 33 power attack system Blue Lighting Tyrant Dragon spirit" (So he is the other upper clan's heir).

I make a little bow "I am Ning Bai 12 years old rank 34 control system NTGTS spirit". All them a bit surprised knowing my actual rank and age except Yan that already known. "Nice to meet you all. For the person I choose to fight it will be..." I think a little (To cause the most impact the ebst will be win against their leader, but for the other hand maybe a create some apathy winning versus their leader and I want first observe their actual power and training before changing it. To cause the least change in their impression I will choose Mayi she is the weakest in rank and age so winning quickly is gonna be normal. Moreover, I have curiosity in her, maybe fighting her I start remembering her and for the other hand is strange to have someone so young that didn't cross the big bottlenect of the 30 rank directly put in the best team. There's also the fact that with her surname she had a high chance of being part of the strength clan and with her spirit is not part of the main line, so her nobility can be dubious) "... Mayi".

"Yata!" Mayi run to me and quickly guide me to outside where there is a combat ground. At there Yu Feng shouts "Don't be to conceived for her age and rank of pure attack power she wins easily versus the leader. In my opinion you did a wrong choice being her only being a spirit grandmaster the second strongest of the team in 1 vs 1 having the best strength, defense and speed of us. It's only that she doesn't have any spirit skill".

Hearing I prepared myself. Yan comes near us deciding to be the referee. Yan lift her tight arm saying "You can show your spirits" I invoke my sword surrounded by 3 rings yellow, yellow and purple. In Mayi's body appears a dark brown armor covering all her body, creating even a light brown mask for her head, appearing two antennas over her head and two kind of ants' legs under her arms, surrounding her there are 2 rings, yellow and purple (So this will be the main reason for her being part of the team, and over ideal configuration). Yan seeing us ready quickly lower her hand shouting "Start!".

Even before that I can activate any skill Mayi stomps the ground launching very fast towards me leaving a crater of 2 meters diameter. I hurriedly change my posture of attack to a guard one and infusing intent block her strike, finally stopping her after being pushed 10 m (How can she have so much strength). I jump back gaining distance and taking advantage to activate my skills <2nd skill: Wood Stamina>.

Doing another time the same she launches at me, this time stopping before me and starts repeteadly attacking me with a lighting fast barrage of punches and kicks I try to evade or block the attacks, every time blocking an attack my hand turning numbs due her strength (I though that with the second skill it will suffice to exhaust her only needing to continue stalling time but she is too powerful and her stamina seems high if I not attack I will lose). <1st skill: Fire Power>, being easier to cope her attacks. After some minutes of continue at the defending side a finally see a gap in her attacks, doudging to the left her right punch and blocking with my leg knee her kick (Fuck! Blocking with my body it's not a good idea) I think having being injured even when I successfully block her. Then I use her gap and slash at her, at this moment one of her ant arms moves for the first time blocking my attack (Fuck! They're not decoration) creating now I gap in my defense the other ant arm pierce forward towards me. (There's no other option if I don't want to lose) <3rd skill: Lighting Speed> I quickly evade the attack with my new speed and with the minimum movement I go through her, being both back with back I use the handle of my sword and strike her neck causing her to fall to the ground.

I turn to the surprised Yan saying "It seems that is my win". Yan recuperate from his stupor and says "Winner Nin...". "No! I can continue!" shouts Mayi standing up "Let's continue fighting Big Brother!" (How can be she be alright after that hit) says smiling. When she prepare to charge again suddenly her armor disappears and she falls again to the ground sleeping. At that Yun Feng says "Woah we need too fight all of us to tired her down, congratulation Bai!". Yan seeing her sleeping shouts "Winner Ning Bai!" then she turn towards me saying "She has a lot stamina and a so monstrous resilience that she can go all out until she expends all her energy. Her weakness being that she don't control really well her strength going always at full power, but I think that this is more of her preference that her incapacity".

Yu Tianheng approach me putting his hand at my shoulder says "Congratulations to past the test with this you're now part of the Emperor team. It will be assigned a room at our building and you will have access at the best resources that the academy. For now relax, you seems tired, take a rest or a little walk. Tomorrow we will talk about the daily training and duties that being part of the Emperor team entails" He turn around returning to the Emperor building, all the other members following him. Yun Feng turn to me saying "For Mayi you can let her sleep, she really has bad temper when someone wake her and it won't be the first time for her to sleep outside. So don't worry".

I watch Mayi sleeping (She is younger than me and I had difficulty winning when she will break through the spirit elder rank maybe she can win me. And where do we met before and caused her so be so intimate with me? It's a matter for later now better go sleep we will live together from now on so I will have amply time to find it out.). Then a maid guided me t my assigned room and I start sleeping.
