Overpowering Your Opponent

I checked Bai Lixiong's level myself. I was surprised to find he was at level 29. That made him immensely powerful. Yet, he was the type who always followed a straight path. He was genuine, unwavering in his integrity. The kind of man who couldn't be swayed by bribes. Admirably upright, yet, in many eyes, truly naive.

Stepping into the arena, I was met with Bai Lixiong bowing in preparation for our duel. I spoke up, "Brother, you've climbed to such a commendable level, just a step away from the senior realm. Yet, no one recognizes your worth or offers you the [First Dragon] pills you need to make that final leap. You've been stuck at this plateau for one and a half years, and it truly breaks my heart."

His eyes widened, "How did you find out?" That was a secret he'd guarded closely.
