My Girlfriend is a Zombie

Chapter 567 – The Gap in Strength

“Shall we begin?”

Ye Kai held his dual blades, his head slightly lowered, a defiant look in his eyes as he stared at Ling Mo.

His body was slightly angled to one side, the heel of one foot raised.

This stance made him resemble an agile leopard, ready to pounce on his prey at any moment.

A sense of oppression emanated from him, his already fierce eyes now filled with a murderous intent.

“Look at Ye Kai, he’s ready!” someone shouted.

Those within Team F were quite familiar with Ye Kai; seeing him like this, they knew he was about to make his move.

Among the many, those who wielded blades were not few, but the only one who could wield them in a way that truly intimidated others was Ye Kai.

Ye Kai might not be the strongest, but he was certainly one of the most distinctive, both in temperament and in his style of combat.

“Are you ready?” Ling Mo glanced at Ye Kai and asked.

“Yeah. Aren’t you preparing?” Ye Kai frowned in response.

Ling Mo hadn’t moved a muscle, hadn’t drawn a weapon, nor taken any defensive stance.

He even still held that piece of paper in his hand!

Isn’t that a bit too careless?!

Not just Ye Kai, but others too were watching Ling Mo with puzzled looks.

Even if you are confident, it’s not the time to underestimate your opponent… Can’t he see how much this matters to him?

If he loses, he’ll have to skulk away in defeat…

However, nobody reminded Ling Mo at this moment, and Ling Mo himself seemed rather bewildered as he said, “Ready? Oh… no worries, attack whenever you want.”

“…”

“Damn, that’s too confident!”

“Really doesn’t need to prepare? And at any time… impressive!”

“Arrogant!” Ye Kai suddenly became furious. This person didn’t seem showy, even rather mild, but his words were more infuriating one after another, the arrogance was extreme!

Provoked by Ling Mo, Ye Kai didn’t bother with more words. With a tip of his toe, he shot out like a bullet.

As he surged forward, the two sharp knives in his hands twirled, creating two blossoming knife flowers.

Then, as if countless knife flowers were continuously blooming in his hands, in just an instant, a circle of cold light surrounded Ye Kai.

Although it looked magnificent, it was deadly.

A meat grinder! Even those who were slightly closer to him quickly stepped back, fearing being touched by the cold light.

“Such quick movements!”

“The speed in his hands is amazing!”

Ye Kai’s attack was wild! Crazy! Just like him, it looked extremely cool!

To be able to instantly increase the speed of his movements to this level in such a short time, it must be attributed to the use of special abilities, certainly coupled with rigorous training.

“He’s going with that move right from the start!” Someone suddenly remarked.

“Have you seen it before?”

“Who? Who has seen it?” People looked around, searching.

“One of Ye Kai’s signature moves, a combination of offense and defense, perfectly aligns with his philosophy, you know, the ‘best defense is a good offense’ thing,” the person who had earlier expressed sentiment continued.

“Ah! So powerful! How can you even dodge in such a small space?”

Indeed, Ye Kai’s move was very apt for the situation. The arena was small, where could Ling Mo possibly escape to?

No matter what evasion techniques Ling Mo had, facing such a sharp attack, he was likely to end up in a rather embarrassing situation.

It seemed that while Ye Kai was provoking Ling Mo, he wasn’t without intelligence; he started with his strongest move right off the bat. Even if he couldn’t take down Ling Mo in one go, he could at least press him hard.

At this moment, not many were betting on Ling Mo. Putting themselves in his shoes, they felt that if they were standing where Ling Mo was, withstanding the assault would be impossible.

To be pummeled and forced to run around would indeed be quite humiliating…

Ye Kai, seeing Ling Mo not dodging, quickened the movements of his hands even more. His whole being became like a human meat grinder, rolling towards Ling Mo.

Two meters!

One meter!

Just as Ling Mo was about to be enveloped by the whirl of knife light, everyone’s hearts leaped to their throats.

“Why isn’t he dodging?!” Gu Shuangshuang gripped her clothes tightly, internally shouting.

Zhang Xincheng still had an expressionless face, but if one looked closely, they would see a flicker of emotion in his eyes.

Skinny Monkey was already tense all over, as if he was the one about to be hit.

“He can’t dodge it…” most people thought to themselves.

If Ling Mo had been prepared to dodge from the start, there might have been a chance to avoid the brunt of the attack, but now it seemed he had to take it head-on…

“Just so-so, huh…”

“They said he was strong? Are they kidding me?”

“He really is strong though…” someone whispered in defense.

But even those who had confidence in Ling Mo’s abilities were now beginning to waver.

It seemed he had underestimated his opponent… That was the only explanation.

Unfortunately, his opponent was Ye Kai.

Ye Kai wouldn’t show mercy just because his enemy didn’t react; on the contrary, he became even more ferocious.

His vicious and rapid attack clearly intended to take Ling Mo down directly!

“Ah!”

The moment Ye Kai’s knife light reached Ling Mo, Gu Shuangshuang couldn’t help but let out a scream.

Boom!

The knife light didn’t stop because of the scream, instead, it completely wrapped Ling Mo within it.

After the muffled sound, the room fell into immediate silence.

One could nearly imagine what would come next—a scene splattered with blood…

Even those who were just making excuses for Ling Mo were now utterly disappointed.

He really wasn’t planning on dodging at all… He had even given up on defending.

Could it be that his strength was all just talk? Could it be that all those things weren’t done by him?

For a moment, everyone was filled with doubts about Ling Mo.

A few who had been watching with cold eyes sneered and started walking towards the door.

The outcome seemed decided; there was no need to watch any longer.

This wasn’t really a fight; it was just Ye Kai crushing a bug. It just seemed a bit funny when one thought back to the big talk that bug had made before.

Although others were still staring at the whirl of knife light, they really didn’t expect any miracles to happen.

Many people were already thinking of the consequences, wondering if Ye Kai’s strike was too heavy. What if Ling Mo suffered serious injuries, or worse, his life was in danger… What would they do then?

Yuwen Xuan from the Falcon Second Camp was not someone to mess with either…

In an atmosphere that was eerily silent, more people began to head towards the exit.

As the excitement turned into trouble, everyone was eager to disassociate themselves from the situation…

Skinny Monkey hesitated for a moment and looked at Zhang Xincheng and Gu Shuangshuang beside him.

Gu Shuangshuang had a worried expression, extremely anxious, while Zhang Xincheng glanced at him and said, “Let’s wait and see.”

“Oh… okay.” Skinny Monkey blushed a little; he just wanted to see their reaction and slip away with them.

“Clang!”

Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out again.

A person who had just reached the door turned around, and their jaw dropped at the scene before them.

The flurry of blades had vanished, and Ye Kai, holding his dual blades, seemed to be under an immobilization spell, frozen in place.

His face was flushed red, and his eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Ling Mo, who was less than half a meter away from him.

And the guy everyone thought would be splattered with blood was standing there perfectly fine, his posture, position, and even his expression completely unchanged!

He hadn’t moved at all!

“What’s going on?!”

“How did this happen?!”

The crowd was boiling with excitement once more!

How could this situation arise? Ye Kai was clearly dominating just a moment ago!

“You…” Ye Kai was also in disbelief, and as the person involved, he was the most aware of his own helplessness.

Even though Ling Mo was right before his eyes, no matter how he slashed, he just couldn’t touch him!

There’s no feeling more maddening than this! He didn’t resist, didn’t dodge; it was like a piece of fat meat was laid out before him, but no matter how hard he tried to bite, he couldn’t touch it!

In those few short seconds, he attacked Ling Mo no less than fifty times, but not once did he touch him.

“Again!” Ye Kai roared angrily, then, under the astonished and puzzled gazes of everyone, he lunged forward in a frenzy.

This time everyone saw clearly…

Ye Kai’s violent hacking was stopped by something less than half a meter away from Ling Mo.

And this time, his movements began to falter, and his wrist seemed to tremble.

Ye Kai was most aware of these changes; he knew this was a counterattack from Ling Mo.

This kind of counterattack only worked when he was attacking, so he was actually being hurt by his own counterforce.

Yet this feeling made him feel even more powerless…

He didn’t even need to take the initiative; he could cause Ye Kai’s arms to ache and his body to feel tearing sensations all over.

This disparity in strength was simply despairing…
