Beat Up Without Mercy

In an unnamed, abandoned gymnasium.

"Ding!"

Ning Yu held a metal blade identical to the one Shen Yiyue wielded, clashing head-on with her.

Their figures touched briefly before retreating, and Ning Yu shifted her position, launching attacks from different angles.

Seeing the distance between them widen, Shen Yiyue immediately drew her pistol from the holster on her thigh and fired at Ning Yu.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Dang!"

Ning Yu dodged one bullet and effortlessly deflected another.

Shen Yiyue had already known from their previous encounter that Ning Yu could block bullets, so she didn't expect this tactic to hit her. Instead, she used it to disrupt Ning Yu's movements.

Neither of them had activated their Future Reading at this point.

If both had activated it, due to the difference in their abilities' strength, Ning Yu's counterfeit Future Reading wouldn't be able to predict dodging bullets, while Shen Yiyue's would guarantee a hit.

However, this was just a training session, so after a brief attempt, they agreed not to use it.

If they were to go all out, Ning Yu's physical prowess would make her speed reach extreme levels, which would be a bit too unfair.

Therefore, Ning Yu also controlled her strength to a level that Shen Yiyue could handle, ensuring a reasonable training effect.

"Xiaoyu, you must have held back again, right?"

Shen Yiyue didn't rush to continue the attack and asked instead.

"How could I? It's just that you've improved."

Ning Yu naturally didn't want to dampen her confidence.

"Stop lying, you stinky Xiaoyu! Lying comes with punishment!"

Shen Yiyue pointed at Ning Yu with a pout, baring her little tiger teeth in a threatening manner.

"Alright, alright... I held back just a little."

Ning Yu had to admit it, since they were together every day, both in life and in battle, and Shen Yiyue wasn't naive.

"Xiaoyu, you can go all out."

Shen Yiyue said arrogantly, making a "Come at me!" gesture with her hand.

Ning Yu smiled at her attitude:

"Seems like the pressure I've been giving you isn't enough?"

She watched the beads of sweat on Shen Yiyue's cheek, which had soaked the black hair at her temple, and the faint blush on her face.

Hearing this, Shen Yiyue wiped the sweat off her face and said nonchalantly:

"Hmph, don't underestimate me. I've been secretly working hard too!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yiyue pulled the grappling hook in her hand, hooking it onto the spectator seats of the gymnasium, quickly putting distance between herself and Ning Yu.

Her metal blade disappeared, and in its place, a sniper rifle appeared in her hands.

If you looked closely, you could see a rectangular metal box on Shen Yiyue's back, a weapon case she had obtained from Doraemon Yu.

The biggest problem for Shen Yiyue, who excelled in using firearms, was the inability to carry multiple firearms at once, since she was a person, not a helicopter.

However, Ning Yu had found this magical case in the mall, capable of storing multiple firearms within it.

Shen Yiyue loved this new equipment and naturally dragged Ning Yu to train with it.

As her body was pulled along by the grappling hook, Shen Yiyue already had the sniper rifle in hand, aiming at Ning Yu in mid-air.

"Xiaoyu, go all out!"

Seeing her serious expression, Ning Yu felt she couldn't argue with this fool, though she still wouldn't use her full strength, just a bit more seriously.

"Bang!!!"

At the moment the sniper rifle fired, Shen Yiyue had already reached the spectator seats of the abandoned gymnasium, putting a significant distance between her and Ning Yu.

With the advantage of firearms, it was crucial to utilize it effectively.

Ning Yu loosened her restrictions on her speed, gripping her metal blade tightly, transforming into a blur as she charged toward Shen Yiyue's position.

The sniper bullet grazed past Ning Yu, narrowly missing her.

However, the next second, Ning Yu felt a sharp pain in her foot, causing her to falter.

?

Realizing something was wrong, Ning Yu rolled to take cover behind an obstacle.

The bullet had clearly missed her, so why?

Her foot was now bleeding profusely, pierced through, the bullet's power terrifying.

The pain immediately made Ning Yu understand—Shen Yiyue had started using Future Reading.

It seemed she wanted to push Ning Yu to be more serious.

She was really ruthless, not holding back at all... If she had known, she wouldn't have told her about her resurrection ability.

However, this small injury didn't affect her much. Ning Yu decided not to hold back anymore.

"Bang!!!"

Shen Yiyue had quickly moved to a position where she could see Ning Yu and fired again.

But this time, Shen Yiyue's Future Reading's guaranteed hit ability didn't show anything, because Ning Yu's speed had exceeded its limits.

Ning Yu behind the obstacle had disappeared, and Shen Yiyue was already seeing a replay of herself dodging Ning Yu's slash.

She immediately sensed danger, rolling to the side and firing her grappling hook at the same time.

"Boom!"

Ning Yu's slash instantly reached her previous position, shattering the seats. Her movements were no longer sluggish.

Seeing Shen Yiyue trying to create distance again, Ning Yu's body also moved directly, as she had already fired her grappling hook before arriving.

Unlike Shen Yiyue, Ning Yu's physical strength didn't necessarily have to follow the grappling hook's path, making Shen Yiyue, who was in the air, an unavoidable target.

Even though Shen Yiyue had left first, Ning Yu arrived later but faster, the blade already closing in on Shen Yiyue, who was still moving on the grappling hook.

"Ding!"

They clashed in mid-air, but with her full strength unleashed, Ning Yu's power was terrifying. Shen Yiyue was sent crashing to the ground in the center of the gymnasium, as if kicked by a giant force.

After landing, Shen Yiyue quickly dissipated the force, barely managing to ignore the pain and raise her sniper rifle again.

Future Reading still couldn't see the possibility of hitting Ning Yu at full strength, so she had to shoot blindly, firing in the direction Ning Yu might attack from.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

She fired several shots, one grazing Ning Yu's arm, as she also couldn't see the possibility of dodging Shen Yiyue's bullets. Both were now fighting purely on instinct.

But Shen Yiyue's blind shots did hinder Ning Yu, though it was all happening too fast.

Ning Yu didn't bother with the scratch on her arm, already darting in front of Shen Yiyue.

Suddenly, her pupils constricted, as Shen Yiyue seemed to have anticipated Ning Yu's approach, already holding an RPG with a warhead, aiming to cause area damage by firing at the ground.

Shen Yiyue had already fired her grappling hook again, intending to create distance while causing the explosion.

But she definitely wouldn't make it out of the blast zone in time.

This could put Shen Yiyue in danger herself. Ning Yu acted decisively.

"Snap!"

However, the explosion didn't occur. In the blink of an eye, Shen Yiyue's RPG was like a baseball, directly hit away.
