A Friendship Born of Conflict

George couldn't stand it anymore.

He took off his coat and rushed directly to Zhang Guozhu.

Zhang Guozhu's fight became significantly tougher. George appeared to be a rank-six.

However, Zhang Guozhu was not willing to admit defeat so quickly in front of Oman.

Even though he took a beating, Zhang Guozhu gritted his teeth and endured it.

Oman was so anxious that tears were flowing down her face.

"Guozhu, if you can't do it, come back!" Oman shouted.

"Retreat? I, Zhang Guozhu, am a soldier of the nation!

"I'd rather die than retreat!"

Zhang Guozhu shouted, and his power burst out... Then, he was sent flying by a kick from George.

However, Zhang Guozhu did not relent. He seemed to be at the cusp of a breakthrough.

After another roar, Zhang Guozhu's eyes lit up!

He had advanced!

He was now a rank-six Awakened!

Zhang Guozhu rushed to meet George, emboldened by his newfound strength.
