Walker staggered backward several steps before regaining his balance.
While he marveled at Lin Yi's sheer strength, what truly shocked him was his opponent's battle-hardened experience.
During their last encounter, Lin Yi hadn't demonstrated such high-level combat intelligence.
Walker was certain—this wasn't the kind of power a C-class fighter should possess.
In just over half a month, Lin Yi had improved drastically, and Walker knew it was due to two factors.
First, Lin Yi had completed the current stage of his system rewards.
The D-class combat experience had significantly boosted his abilities.
This made him more composed during battles and gave him a wider range of tactics to counter his enemies.
This D-class combat experience had played a crucial role in their recent exchange; without it, Lin Yi might not have been able to harm Walker at all.
