Chapter 12

In the ring, Gu Ding's opponent appeared once again. This time, it was a woman.

The woman wore a golden metal mask that covered the upper part of her face, leaving only her mouth open. She was dressed very revealing, with only a black leather chest wrap covering her upper body and nothing covering the rest of her body. Below her was a black leather miniskirt, and a pair of black heels that were about twenty centimeters long and embedded with dozens of different colored gems sparkled under the light. "Little brother, I've just watched your match. It was very exciting."

"Thanks for the compliment." Gu Ding looked curiously at the information displayed by the other party. It was all question marks. ID, number of battles, number of wins, battle ranking … Everything was displayed as question marks. "Why are all your information displayed as question marks?"

"That's because I hid it on purpose." The corner of the masked woman's mouth twitched slightly. She seemed to have no intention of fighting Gu Ding right away. "Why? Are you interested in my identity?"

"No, it's just my first time seeing such a situation. I'm just asking." Gu Ding shook his head. This woman did not look like a simple person. He did not want to provoke her.

The masked woman said calmly, "I've seen people use similar martial arts before. This time, when I saw you use it, it seems a little different. I can't help but feel a little itchy. Let's spar and not go overboard. How about that? "

During the conversation, Gu Ding carefully observed his opponent. He could only come to one conclusion — this woman was extremely dangerous. Although the other party seemed to be standing there casually, there was not a single flaw to be found. Gu Ding could not even tell the strength of her breath. This could only mean one thing. The other party's strength was not on the same level as his. Even though they were in the virtual arena and both of them had the same Cell Index, it was not difficult to tell that the other party was a true martial arts powerhouse.

"Sure." After silently assessing the other party's strength, Gu Ding decisively agreed to her request to stop.

The masked woman casually removed the long black whip hanging on her belt and smiled at Gu Ding. Then, with a flick of her wrist, the long whip flew out. A black shadow flashed in the air, as fast as lightning. Gu Ding took a Silent Step and dodged the attack. Just as he was about to counterattack, he realized that the black shadow was like a living thing and was chasing after him at lightning speed. Gu Ding was slightly surprised. His opponent had only attacked once, yet it had such an effect. He took another Silent Step. However, something strange happened. This time, dodging seemed to have no effect at all. The whip ignored the change in his footwork and chased after him as if it had broken through the restraints of space.

"Eh?" Gu Ding finally understood how powerful this move was. He dodged six times in a row and pushed his six forms of Silent Step to the limit. The whip shadow was like maggots in his bones, and he could not get rid of it. At this moment, he had an epiphany. "I should take this opportunity to practice my footwork. This virtual body has a Cell Index of 100 points, which should be enough for me to perform some subsequent moves without collapsing. "

With that in mind, he followed the description of the Ultimate Arts in his memory and took the seventh step, Silent Step. However, this was his first time using it, so his movements were a little shaky. It was just a moment of weakness, but the whip shadow took advantage of it and struck Gu Ding's back with a "smack". Almost at the same time, his defensive Righteous Body was activated. The whip shadow tore through the Righteous Body's defense and sent Gu Ding's body flying.

With a "boom", Gu Ding's body slammed hard into the protective shield, leaving a long crack on his back. The attack had almost sent Gu Ding out of the ring, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Looks like I went a little overboard …" The masked woman did not seem to do it on purpose as she muttered to herself.

Gu Ding slowly got up from the ground. Judging from his opponent's attack just now, she could have killed him in a second. The back was a relatively strong defensive position. If the attack had landed on a vital spot, he would have been eliminated on the spot. Even so, if he was hit by an attack of this level two or three more times, even if it did not hit a vital spot, he would be turned into data fragments and sent out of the ring.

"Little brother, you're hurt like this. Do you still want to continue?" The masked woman asked with the corner of her mouth raised slightly. Gu Ding did not know what her smile meant.

Gu Ding grinned. "Of course I want to continue. I still have a lot of moves that I haven't used yet."

It was not easy for him to meet such a strong opponent to test his moves on. Naturally, Gu Ding would not let it go. Even if the other party did not have any ill intentions toward him, he would not give up the opportunity to test his moves easily.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ding's legs suddenly exerted force, and he used the seventh form of Silent Step. This time, it did not feel shaky. Facing an opponent who was good at long-range attacks, Gu Ding began to take the initiative to attack. As long as he could get close to his opponent, he had a chance of winning.

"What a terrifying comprehension. The move just now was shaky. It was obvious that it was his first time using it. The second time he used it, there were no loopholes. " The masked woman could not help but feel a little surprised. Her hands did not stop moving, and she lashed out with the whip again. This time, she held back a lot.

When Gu Ding saw the whip shadow coming toward him, he used the eighth form of Silent Step. It was a standard step, and there were no problems. Following that, he used the ninth form and the tenth form. When he used the eleventh form, he felt shaky again. Seeing that the whip shadow was about to fall, Gu Ding threw a punch at it.

"Boom!" When the two collided, Gu Ding was knocked back a few steps. A red mark was left on his fist, but there was no crack like the one on his chest. He glanced at his fist from the corner of his eye and knew that his opponent had deliberately held back her strength.

"Is she trying to let me test her moves on purpose?" Gu Ding raised his eyebrows. He did not know what his opponent's motive was, but this move showed her attitude — this was just a friendly match.

Knowing this, Gu Ding naturally did not hold back. He knew that he was not strong enough, so he would not let go of such a great opportunity to train himself. He swung his fist again and met the attack.

Again and again, he was hit by the whip, and again and again, he was forced back by his opponent. The battle in the ring had gone on for more than two hours. Gu Ding was so tired that he was panting. Although he had not touched his opponent, he had made great progress.

He had learned the fifteenth form of Silent Step, the fourteenth form of Steel Fist, the twelfth form of Phantom Kick, the ninth form of Thunder Elbow and Flaming Knee, and even the second form of Righteous Body, the hardest to cultivate.

"You've used up too much of your Spirit. There's no point in continuing." The masked woman knew very well that although the Virtual Arena did not use up one's physical strength, fighting for more than two hours continuously took a lot out of one's Spirit. The two-hour battle had also made her certain that Gu Ding's Gene Level was not higher than Level 2. Therefore, the strength of his Spirit was easily deduced.

Gu Ding also knew that his opponent was not lying. His progress had reached a bottleneck. It was not a problem of comprehension, but the burden of his Spirit had reached its limit. If he continued, he might be kicked out of the Virtual Arena. However, he was not willing to admit defeat.

Looking at his eyes, the masked woman seemed to notice this, and the corner of her mouth rose again. "Little brother, you don't want to admit defeat, do you? How about this, let me kiss you, and I'll admit defeat. Also, I'll give you a present. "

"I think her suggestion is good," Neptune, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up when he heard the suggestion.

Gu Ding was silent for a moment. The thought of being taken advantage of by a woman made him a little unhappy. "I admit …"

Before he could finish his sentence, Gu Ding realized that his body could not move at all. He could not even make a sound. The corner of the masked woman's mouth rose slightly. She slowly walked in front of Gu Ding and pressed a white, flawless finger on Gu Ding's lips.

"You'd rather admit defeat than let me kiss you, is that it?" The masked woman lowered her head and laughed softly in Gu Ding's ear. "Not only do I want to kiss you, I also want …"

As the masked woman spoke, she kissed Gu Ding's cheek, leaving a red lipstick mark. Then, she straightened her back and gave Gu Ding a strange smile. After that, she wrapped her hand around the back of Gu Ding's head and pressed it forward. Gu Ding's face was instantly buried between the masked woman's surging breasts.

"Wow …" All the male spectators in the spectator stands exclaimed almost at the same time, and saliva flowed from the corners of their mouths.
