Although she spent most of her time on her internship, she never forgot to practice martial arts, because she needed to protect herself.
Actually, she didn’t tell her friends that three men had tried to rob her once when she was off work and went back home. Nevertheless, they didn’t succeed and she directly beat them up because she had greatly improved her body condition and martial arts during the past year.
She was able to fight against three men now, but what if she ran into more bad people in the future? In order to protect herself in any dangerous situations, Yu Mixi must keep on improving herself.
Because she didn’t want to worry her friends and she wasn’t hurt anyway, she didn’t tell her friends the story.
Gu Ning only used a third of her strength when she tested Yu Mixi’s fighting skills. It was only a test, and she didn’t aim to defeat her. However, Yu Mixi still couldn’t get any advantages during the test, because Gu Ning was at a much higher level than her.
They did the test on the lawn at the front of the small woods, and there was a lane aside. Many people ran by them on the small road, and some of them stopped when they noticed what Gu Ning and her friends were doing.
“Wow, this girl is quite good, and she must have begun to practice martial arts when she was a little.”
“Right, but I don’t think girls should be so violent.”
Hearing that, Chu Peihan was displeased and argued at once. “Violent? I don’t think so. Girls nowadays must learn to protect themselves from dangerous men. Don’t you see the news that some creepy men followed weak girls and raped them. Those evil men only chose weak girls to do bad things, so girls must learn to be strong.”
Many people agreed with Chu Peihan.
“I think she’s right. Although we’re in a society ruled by laws, there are many crimes happening every day.”
“…”
When Yu Mixi wasn’t able to fight back anymore, Gu Ning stopped and let her rest.
At this time, a man who was about 30 said to Gu Ning, “Hey, young girl, can we have a fight competition for fun?”
He was over 1.80 meters tall with a strong build and stable breath, which showed that he had been practicing fighting skills for years. Gu Ning thought that he must be a soldier or a policeman from his air of uprightness. It was also possible that he wasn’t neither of them, and he simply loved martial arts.
“Why not!” Gu Ning agreed, because it wasn’t a big deal.
“Really? Lao Zhang, you’re a tall strong man, and now you want to fight against a young girl? You’re taking advantage of her!” Another man who stood by Lao Zhang thought it wasn’t appropriate, because he knew how strong Lao Zhang was.
Gu Ning only used a third of her strength. Although she looked excellent at fighting, she seemed to not be very outstanding, so the man believed that she was no match for Lao Zhang.
“Right, this girl is younger and weaker than you.”
Lao Zhang smiled and said nothing. He was a martial arts lover, and he could see that Gu Ning wasn’t weak at all, and he might not be able to take advantage of her.
“It’s fine,” said Gu Ning. Even though Lao Zhang was tall and strong, Gu Ning didn’t think he was better than her at martial arts.
Since Gu Ning didn’t mind it, the man said nothing further. It had nothing to do with him anyway.
After that, Lao Zhang walked towards Gu Ning, and the competition began after they had an agreement.
Gu Ning clearly knew that it was impossible for Lao Zhang to win, and she had no intention to defeat him quickly, so she didn’t use her full strength, she only used half of it.
At the beginning, Lao Zhang did the same thing, because he didn’t want to hurt Gu Ning. Therefore, Lao Zhang wasn’t able to stand steadily in the competition with Gu Ning, and he was forced to use greater strength.
Unfortunately, as he kept using greater strength, he still failed to surpass Gu Ning, which totally shocked him. He knew that Gu Ning didn’t use her full strength, and he didn’t know how much strength she used right now.
Afterwards, Lao Zhang used one eighth of his strength and could hardly make the competition a tie.
Outsiders only thought that Lao Zhang and Gu Ning were at the same level, and Lao Zhang deliberately didn’t use his full strength in order to let Gu Ning have an advantage. After all, most of them were familiar with Lao Zhang, and they tended to believe that he was better than Gu Ning.
However, they were still impressed by Gu Ning’s ability, because she was a young and thin girl but she was very different from other girls.
Lao Zhang then used one ninth of his strength, but he still couldn’t defeat Gu Ning because Gu Ning also increased her strength at the same time.
Lao Zhang finally realized that he couldn’t win Gu Ning even if he used his full strength.
He didn’t feel embarrassed even though he would lose the game to a young girl. Instead, he was amazed by Gu Ning’s ability, and he enjoyed the competition with her. Therefore, he didn’t stop the competition in advance in order to save his face, but encouraged himself to do his best.
Gu Ning wouldn’t let Lao Zhang lose face and simply made it a tie. Lao Zhang would stop it when he was out of strength.
Lao Zhang called the end of the competition when he was out of strength and still couldn’t get any advantage.
“Young girl, I have to admit that I lost and you’re really incredible,” said Lao Zhang. He didn’t feel unhappy after he lost the game. He knew that Gu Ning was very extraordinary at the very beginning, but he was still surprised by her ability. He believed that he was better than most ordinary people, but Gu Ning was still better than him, which proved that Gu Ning was quite extraordinary. However, when other people heard that, they rounded their eyes in shock and couldn’t believe it.
“What? You lost?”
