When Han Sen returned to the dorm, he called Little Angel and the others over. He told them to be careful and not to go off on their own.
"Is Edward that scary?
If he won't try to steal it, why should we be afraid of him? "Ji Qing asked with confusion.
"If he tries to steal it, then there is nothing to be afraid of. Before this is resolved, no one is allowed to go off on their own," Han Sen said seriously.
The next morning, Han Sen led the team to continue their search of Lava Valley. But this time, he had to bring Bai Wei with him. That made the mission a bit more unpredictable.
Fortunately, Bai Wei did not speak. She just followed them quietly, as if she did not care about anything.
But when they entered the Lava Valley, Bai Wei suddenly stood up and stopped Han Sen in his tracks.
"From now on, I will be the leader of this team," Bai Wei said to Han Sen in a commanding tone.
"Why?" Han Sen looked at Bai Wei with a smile that did not look like a smile.
"You should know who I am," Bai Wei said coldly.
"Who am I?
All I know is that you are a newbie on my team. You are not good enough to be the leader. "Han Sen smiled at Bai Wei, but he didn't want to reveal who she was.
Without her identity, Han Sen could treat her like a newbie. If he made things clear, bullying her would be like bullying a princess. It would be a whole different story.
Bai Wei was shocked. She looked at Han Sen and nodded. "Okay. If that is the case, then I will challenge you as a newbie. If you lose, I will be the leader of this team. You and the others will have to listen to my orders."
"No." Han Sen rejected Bai Wei's challenge.
"Are you scared?" Bai Wei looked at Han Sen coldly.
"You are just a new recruit. You are the weakest member of the team, and I am the captain. I am the strongest member of this team. If you want to challenge me, you will have to beat them first." Han Sen pointed at Han Meng 'er and the others.
"That's unnecessary. All of you can come at me together," Bai Wei said coldly. She looked at Han Sen with disdain.
"A rookie will always be a rookie. You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
Han Sen sighed. He looked at Han Meng 'er and said, "Meng' er, teach this newbie how to talk to his seniors. Don't hit him too hard. Don't kill him."
When Bai Wei heard Han Sen's words, she was a little annoyed. However, her expression did not change. She looked at Han Sen and sneered. "You don't dare to fight me, so you want a woman to stand up for you?"
"You have a lot of imagination. This is my daughter. You can beat her first, then you can challenge me." Han Sen laughed.
When Han Meng 'er heard Han Sen, she walked away from the team and stood in front of Bai Wei.
Bai Wei did not think much of Han Meng 'er. Even if it was Han Sen, she didn't think he was strong enough for her to fight.
She was Han Sen's reserve knight, and she was about the same age as her. She didn't need to think much of her.
But when Han Meng 'er pulled the bowstring, Bai Wei's face looked serious. She was like a female leopard ready to fight. She looked at Han Meng' er, and all the disdain and contempt she had for her was gone.
Bai Wei was arrogant, but she wasn't stupid. In fact, she was very smart. The moment Han Meng 'er drew the bow, she felt threatened. So, she gathered all of her power in her fist.
Han Meng 'er did not care about Bai Wei's reaction. She pulled her bow as hard as she could, and when she let go, the black light arrow was already in front of Bai Wei like lightning.
Bai Wei looked cold and arrogant. She threw a punch at the black light arrow.
The Extreme King's Final Punch was one of the top five fist skills in the universe. In Bai Wei's hands, it exploded with scary power. One punch was enough to shatter a mountain.
Seeing that the arrow was going to be hit by Bai Wei's fist, the arrow suddenly disappeared from Bai Wei's sight. When it reappeared, it was going for her belly.
Bai Wei's expression did not change. While she took a step back, she used Biochemical Shock to smash her fist down on the black arrow. Her movements were smooth and fluid, and there was no sign of her being forced or panicked at all.
Boom!
A black sun rose where Bai Wei had been standing. It blew Bai Wei away. Her armor cracked, and her long hair evaporated. Only the part of her head protected by her helmet had not been destroyed. Otherwise, she would have been bald.
Bai Wei's face changed. The gold light on her body turned into a fire that protected her. That was why the explosion did not destroy her armor. But the blood that came out of her mouth showed that she had been severely injured.
Bai Wei had not expected that the team's normal knight-in-training would be so ferocious with one arrow. Even the Extreme King's Final Punch's destructive power could not compare. She could not believe it.
But the truth was right in front of her. Bai Wei had lost her chance. Han Meng 'er kept pulling her bowstring. She kept firing arrows like lightning.
Bai Wei was suppressed by the arrows. She could not even get close to Han Meng 'er.
But the geno arts of the Extreme King were strong. Bai Wei's Extreme King's Final Punch was weaker than Han Meng 'er's combination of the Destroyed Bible and Break Six Skies, but it was not unbeatable.
Under the suppression of Han Meng 'er's arrows, Bai Wei was at a disadvantage. But she did not look like she was going to lose. She was at the top of her class, and not many Marquises could beat her.
"Enough." Han Sen waved his hand, signaling for Han Meng 'er to fall back.
"The fight is not over yet," Bai Wei said, looking at Han Sen.
Han Sen laughed and said, "You have already lost. You used your geno arts to activate your potential. You used up more power than Meng 'er did, and yet, you were unable to break through the suppression of the arrows. It is a draw, but it is only a matter of time before you lose. This is an internal fight, not a fight to the death. There is no need to continue."
Bai Wei did not speak. Han Sen was right, and she could not argue with him.
"You can't even beat my daughter. You should practice for a few more years. Then, you can challenge me again," Han Sen said.
He was suppressing Bai Wei because he wanted to be the leader of the team. He didn't want Bai Wei to lead them by the nose. If that happened, he would not be able to carry out his beast soul hunting plan.
"Just wait. I will beat you and her," Bai Wei said coldly. She did not insist on being the leader of the team, though.
Bai Wei's heart was not as calm as her face. She looked at Han Meng 'er with a complicated expression. Then, she looked at Han Sen. She could not believe that the girl with the scary arrows was Han Sen's daughter.
