Ji-Hyung Lee knew from the start that he was no match for Zheng Dali. He chose to hide his strength not to win, but to exhaust Zheng Dali to the maximum. The best outcome would be for both sides to suffer heavy injuries and use the exchange technique to eliminate Zheng Dali.
The plan was very successful. Because Zheng Dali underestimated his opponent and wanted to preserve a portion of his strength, he caught Ji-Hyung Lee off guard at the beginning.
However, Zheng Dali's battle awareness was very strong. He steadied his mind in the shortest amount of time. Despite that, Ji-Hyung Lee had drained more than half of Zheng Dali's strength and even managed to inflict an injury.
Ji-Hyung Lee's internal organs suffered from trauma. His thumb and index finger split open, but he did not look in any way miserable. He had a smile as he walked down the stage.
