Division of Strength
The reason why Lin Yi was so sure was simple.
It didn't matter if the escort was a coward or not, or if he didn't want to piss off the exquisite man. He represented the bar, and he was a member of the bar!
No matter how powerful the exquisite man was, he wouldn't disregard the bar's reputation and kick the escort out! At the very least, he'd have to give the escort some tips as compensation.
But the escort didn't even say a word when he saw the exquisite man. He just stood up and left, meaning that the exquisite man was very likely a member of the bar. That was why the exquisite man left without hesitation.
After confirming that, Lin Yi didn't bother playing tricks with the exquisite man. Beating him up was easy, but they were in the bar, and Lin Yi didn't want to use simple and violent methods to solve the problem!
He could beat up one person, or even a group of people, but that would expose his strength in front of everyone. It wouldn't be his full strength, but it would attract more attacks from the enemy.
These people were different from Pinliang and Zou Ruoming at school. Lin Yi could tell that even Pengzhan was wary of the people who were after Mengyao! It wasn't just one person, but an entire organization. What was revealed now was only the tip of the iceberg.
And so, Lin Yi decided to expose the exquisite man's goal and let the mastermind come out and talk. That way, he wouldn't have to expose his strength too early, and he'd be able to find out more about the enemy.
Up until now, Lin Yi had only shown off his speed … He hadn't revealed his true strength when he blocked the shot in the bank, or stole the gun from the car.
Just now, when he grabbed the exquisite man's arm, Lin Yi had used a strength that was only slightly higher than the exquisite man's, giving him the wrong information.
Nowadays, martial arts were divided into four levels: Sky, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow. Each level was further divided into early, mid, and late stages.
In fact, this was also a general classification for the evaluation of strength. Different families trained in different techniques, and there might be some slight differences between two people who were both in the early phase of the golden class, but it might not be too big.
This was what Lin Yi learned when he was in the special forces, but his old man and his master did not use this kind of ranking to determine strength.
The old man paid particular attention to body refining, which was also commonly known as external martial arts. However, he used his own Chinese medicine to transform the body. His master, on the other hand, paid particular attention to assassination. Although he needed to train his body in the early stages, he mainly focused on sneak attacks and speed.
With the old man's forging, Lin Yi's current strength was roughly on par with the peak of the late phase of the golden class. But with a sneak attack, he could still take out a mystic class master …
Experts of this level were rare in the city, at least on the battlefield. Lin Yi had only met one expert of this level, and it was a foreigner …
The Art of Dragon Mastery that Lin Yi trained in was a bit like the internal martial arts that some families trained in. But so far, the first level didn't have much effect on his strength.
Training in the Art of Dragon Mastery only had the effect of cleansing and improving the body. Old Lin's Chinese medicine only changed the muscles and muscles, and didn't have much effect on the organs. But the Art of Dragon Mastery was different, it could transform the entire body …
So far, Lin Yi only found out that the Art of Dragon Mastery had an absolute advantage against fatigue. What he just found out was that the energy in the body could help those who were sick.
Other than that, although the Art of Dragon Mastery was magical, it was only the first level, and it didn't increase his strength that much.
But there was an obvious improvement that surprised Lin Yi, and that was that Lin Yi could feel the energy waves from the exquisite man!
This was something he'd never experienced before. He'd fought against Golden class and even Mystic class masters before, but he'd only be able to gauge his opponent's strength after the fight. But now that he'd mastered the first stage of the Art of Dragon Mastery, he could actually feel the energy waves he'd absorbed from the delicate man's body!
He should also be a practitioner of internal martial arts, but Lin Yi didn't know what kind of martial arts he was training in. The energy waves in his body were weaker than Lin Yi's, probably at the early phase of the golden class.
So Lin Yi created the illusion that he was slightly stronger than him, making him think that he was at the peak of the early phase of the golden class, about to break through to the middle phase.
Of course, there were exceptions.
That Wu Chentian from before, Lin Yi could feel that he was a body practitioner, and his main focus was on his hands. But a body practitioner didn't have any energy waves, and Lin Yi couldn't tell his level … Or maybe Wu Chentian was too weak, so weak that the energy in his body was negligible …
"I …" The exquisite man didn't think that Lin Yi would tell him that there was someone else behind him, and this completely messed up his plan!
The exquisite man's original plan was to come here and mess with Mengyao, piss them off, and then Lin Yi would definitely make a move. That way, he could get a feel of Lin Yi's strength, and if Lin Yi wasn't as strong as him, he would teach him a lesson, and then his boss would come out and take care of him …
But now, the strength that Lin Yi displayed was no weaker than the exquisite man's. The two were probably on par, and Lin Yi might even be a little stronger. There was no point in testing him anymore. But, Lin Yi asked his boss to come out, and the exquisite man couldn't make a decision yet.
Just as he was hesitating, the phone on his waist rang.
Fuck, who was calling at this critical moment? The exquisite man wanted to curse! His arm was still in Lin Yi's grasp, and the two of them were at each other's throats, ready to fight at any moment.
If he picked up the phone now, and Lin Yi played some dirty tricks on him, he'd be dead meat! The exquisite man didn't dare to be careless. Against a master like Lin Yi, he had no confidence in winning. Whoever was distracted or compromised first would be at a disadvantage.
"Pick up the phone, I think it must be the one behind you." Lin Yi smiled at the exquisite man and let go of his arm, as if he wasn't afraid that the exquisite man would go back on his word.
The exquisite man didn't think that Lin Yi would let go of him so easily. He looked at Lin Yi deeply, and took out his phone from his waist, but his eyes never left Lin Yi. Although Lin Yi was acting very magnanimous, the exquisite man's instincts told him that Lin Yi was a very bad and sinister person.
