Was time up?
When they heard Wan Ke's words, the crowd was momentarily dazed.
Someone stretched out their hand to look at their watch, their expression suddenly becoming intriguing.
There were still six minutes left, Wan Ke had announced the time early!
However, even though the others knew this, no one said it out loud.
They could see that Hua Liran's kick had pushed Lin Yu to the limit, and if no one stopped him, he would not last the final six minutes.
This also suited the intentions of a few people.
"Heh heh, it seems Wan Ke and we are of the same mind."
"Of course, no one wants the successor of Gong Fei to be that playboy Gu Chenan."
Their murmurs were quiet, but Fang Yuanyuan still noticed them.
She frowned slightly, taking out her phone to check the time.
Immediately, her eyes narrowed.
Indeed, it was not yet time!
At the same time, she looked at Lin Yu in the center of the training ground, his expression resolute, breathing ragged.
Not knowing what she was thinking, she finally exhaled and loudly said, "Okay, Lin Yu, you've passed."
Hearing these words, Lin Yu felt greatly relieved, the adrenaline rush fading away, his arms trembling involuntarily from the intense pain.
"Thank you, Chief."
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and walked out of the training ground despite the excruciating pain in his arms.
It was at this moment that the other three Hawks beckoned to Lin Yu.
"Come, sit here."
Lin Yu's eyes lit up, "Good."
As soon as he took a seat, they immediately began to congratulate him.
"Mr. Lin, your skills are truly impressive. We look forward to working together in the future."
"Mr. Lin, you are the rightful successor to Gong Fei's position, and we fully support you."
"Mr. Lin, rest assured, the likes of some rich kid would never last two hours under Sister Hua's hand."
The "rich kid" they referred to was naturally Gu Chenan.
The Black Owl did not know Gu Chenan's skills, but Lin Yu did.
He still vividly remembered Gu Chenan's unfathomable skills during the Ye Family's martial arts competition.
However, Lin Yu would never say anything that might boost another's confidence while undermining his own.
"The time isn't up yet, they're cheating!"
Behind the training ground, Hoshino Kannon also noticed that the time was not up and turned around angrily.
Gu Chenan shook his head lightly, indicating to Hoshino Kannon not to dwell on it.
Since Fang Yuanyuan did not mention it, it proved that she had no confidence in herself either.
She allowed him to face Hua Liran after Lin Yu out of respect for him calling her "Sister Fang."
However, no matter how unreliable Fang Yuanyuan seemed, she was still the Chief of the Black Owl, and she would prioritize the organization.
In fact, it could be said that Fang Yuanyuan did not believe she could withstand Hua Liran's attacks for two hours either.
So there was no point in dwelling on the matter of a few minutes. If Lin Yu had fallen in the final few minutes, it would have been quite awkward.
"Mr. Gu, it's your turn."
At this point, Wan Ke stood up and gestured for Gu Chenan to enter the ring.
"Okay."
Gu Chenan nodded and walked towards the training ground, his gaze sweeping over Lin Yu and the other three Hawks.
[Heh, you guys are really jumping the gun.]
In the training ground, Hua Liran stretched lazily, a mocking and playful tone in her voice:
"Mr. Gu, have you considered my proposal?"
Gu Chenan smiled lightly, "Sorry, I don't like being someone's plaything."
As he spoke, he suddenly dropped his smile, his deep, profound eyes narrowing slowly, "But if you insist on being my plaything, I may graciously consider it."
These words stunned everyone present.
"This... this Gu Chenan is really asking for death, daring to speak to Sister Hua like that?"
"Does he think Sister Hua has a thing for him, so he's being brazen?"
"Heh, I think Sister Hua won't go easy on Gu Chenan. He won't last two minutes, let alone two hours!"
The three Hawks watched with a sense of schadenfreude, ready to enjoy the show.
However, Hua Liran simply covered her mouth and laughed.
"Mr. Gu, I'm the same as you, but if you can withstand my full-force assault until the time is up, I'll consider your suggestion."
"But before that, you better not die, okay~" As she spoke, Hua Liran's eyes changed, revealing a bone-chilling coldness.
Simultaneously, her figure darted forward, her qipao cutting through the air, her two slender legs slightly parted as she aimed straight for Gu Chenan's neck.
With this move, Hua Liran intended to wrap her legs around Gu Chenan's neck, twisting to break his windpipe in what is commonly known as a stranglehold.
Seeing this, the others were stunned.
Like Hoshino Kannon, Hua Liran specialized in assassination techniques.
This move, which catches the opponent off guard before snapping their neck, was one of Hua Liran's signature kills.
In the past, many men had died happily under this technique when Hua Liran carried out her missions.
Along with the move where she smothers her opponent against her chest, it became one of Hua Liran's deadly techniques.
"It seems our speculation was correct. Sister Hua is intent on killing Gu Chenan."
"Heh heh, it's obvious."
The three Hawks exchanged glances, as if they could already envision Gu Chenan dying happily with a dazed expression.
In the training ground.
Hua Liran's speed was blinding, reaching Gu Chenan in the blink of an eye.
The black lace lingerie beneath her qipao expanded in Gu Chenan's vision. Instantly, Gu Chenan activated the Primordial One Qi Exercise.
The moment Hua Liran approached, he reached out and grabbed her ankles, then swiftly spun and hurled her away with force.
"What!"
This scene shocked everyone in the training ground.
They had all witnessed Hua Liran's blinding speed, which meant she was using her full power from the moment she moved.
Yet, not only did Gu Chenan calmly receive Hua Liran's attack, he even flung her away!
"This... this Gu Chenan... has some skills."
"I didn't expect him to be able to counter Sister Hua's move..."
Although reluctant to admit it, Gu Chenan had undeniably neutralized Hua Liran's technique.
Flung into the air, Hua Liran was momentarily stunned before grinning broadly and gracefully spinning like a gymnast.
"Thud~"
Her high heels landing on the ground, Hua Liran stood steadily in front of Gu Chenan.
"Mr. Gu, your skills are impressive~" Hua Liran complimented with a smile.
"Thank you." Gu Chenan nodded.
Hua Liran flexed her ankles, her red lips parting to say, "Sister is going to get serious now. You better brace yourself."
With that, Hua Liran sent a sidekick towards Gu Chenan's face.
The fragrance from her high heels created a gust of wind that ruffled Gu Chenan's hair.
In front of him, the black high heel came slicing like a blade.
