Chapter 183: Ten Percent Strength

As the news spread around the city like wildfire, Li Wei was still unaware of it and was sparring with Irene, but using fewer skills so he could get used to his strength.

Irene didn't know this, so she frowned a little, wondering why he was getting slower. Nevertheless, she didn't care and continued her attacks fiercely, forcing him to retreat as he was restricting himself from using skills.

Li Xin and the others who were watching them also noticed Li Wei getting slower, but they instantly realized why he was doing this.

"Sister Li, I think we should also spar," Olivia suggested, feeling depressed.

They wanted to watch their fight to learn, but they only caught some glimpses, so it was useless to observe them and was better to do something.

Li Xin and the others also has the same idea, so no one rejected her, and they found a place a little away from them to spar.

Li Wei noticed this, but he didn't say anything and focused on mastering his strength slowly while also learning the new skills from Irene.

However, he was disappointed with it as Irene only used her cleric class skills, making him learn only five skills.

Knowing this, he felt bitter as he was using the skills of swordsman, mage, and assassin classes to counter her, yet she was able to force him back with just one class.

It means she was clearly not going all out, and this made Li Wei depressed.

However, he was also fired up, thinking about mastering his strength to its full potential like her. So, he focused all his attention on the spar, pushing his level 60 strength to its limits, sometimes forcing Irene to retreat.

Watching him like this, Irene narrowed her eyes.

'To force me back when I am using only ten percent of my strength... Li Wei, just what are you?' Irene thought with puzzlement as she looked at him with a deep gaze.

She had opportunity to raise her spirits' attributes monthly, making her ten times stronger than her original level and the same applied now, even if she suppressed her strength to level 60.

In the beginning, she only decided to use five percent of her strength. However, he was able to fight back, so she increased her strength slowly. But Li Wei was just getting more fired up and decided to use more attributes, just like her.

The good thing was that he didn't know she was only using ten percent of her strength. If he did, he would likely be cursing her with depression, as she was only fighting with the help of one class and a few skills. Not to mention, she wasn't even bugged or had godly skills like him.

Li Wei didn't know what was going through her mind, nor did he care.

He has only one purpose: to control his strength and was giving it his all as he felt a sense of crisis.

Just a while ago, he cut off the hands of four nobles, but he solely relied on the level of Stealth and Shadow Step to achieve it.

If not, it would have been hard for him to do so. Not to mention, they were just some weak nobles who hadn't mastered their strength fully, so it was very easy for him to dominate them.

However, if it were just some random level 50 adventurers, he would have to use a lot of tricks to take them down.

Because of this, he felt a sense of crisis and wanted to grow stronger in a short amount of time.

As he thought of this, he decided to increase his strength again. However, just as he thought of this, a feeling of exhaustion struck him.

'Damn, my stamina is depleting very fast,' he cursed with a bitter expression, as it hasn't even been five minutes since they started sparring.

If it were in bed, he could guarantee to last even more than thirty minutes, but here in the fight, he failed to reach even five. It was embarrassing.

Nevertheless, he didn't stop sparring with her and mustered all he could do until finally getting hit by a backhand strike and falling to the ground exhausted.

"Huff... huff... it's too tiring," Li Wei huffed with exhaustion, as he didn't expect that using more attributes would deplete his stamina faster.

"Li Wei, it's because you are using the strength you haven't mastered yet. If not, you could barely last for a few more seconds," Irene explained with a smile, making Li Wei speechless.

But he didn't care and turned towards the others who were looking at him with worry.

"I'm just exhausted, so no need to worry. You guys can continue sparring," he assured them with a smile.

Watching him like this, Li Xin and the others felt relieved, but rather than continuing sparring, they approached him.

"Brother, there's no need to push yourself so hard. You can also master your strength slowly, you know," Li Xin muttered with a sigh, feeling powerless about it.

She wanted him to grow stronger, but not like this, where he would be exhausted beyond his limits. Just watching him lying on the ground powerlessly made her feel uncomfortable.

Li Wei knew her thoughts, so he smiled wryly.

"XinXin, you don't need to worry too much. It's just exhaustion. I'll recover soon," he assured her in a gentle tone.

But upon hearing this, Li Xin frowned in displeasure and sat down to give him a lap pillow.

"If you're saying it's just exhaustion, then can you tell me what happened to your clothes?" she asked coldly, pointing at his miserable clothes that were torn by the aftereffects of skills.

His new clothes were still in the hands of Irene, who was lazy to separate them. The same went for him, so he could only wear low-level clothes, which resulted in this.

"XinXin, it's just some clothes. Look, I'm alright. I haven't even gotten a scratch yet," Li Wei explained as he tore his shirt to show his body.

Only after seeing that there were no scratches did Li Xin heave a sigh of relief. While in the meantime, Li Yin also joined them and started to ruffle Li Wei's hair, making him speechless.

But he wasn't the only one speechless here; Irene and the others were also in the same state as they watched the three of them, who were busy in their own worlds.

However, the three didn't care about this and continued with what they were doing.

"Brother, you should take a half-hour rest, or it might harm your body if you continue like this," Li Xin suggested with a pout, knowing he wasn't going to stop training.

While hearing her, Li Wei nodded.

"Okay, as my little sister says," he replied, looking up at her cute face, which wasn't hidden by her small breasts.

It was a pity, as he imagined something bigger. Nevertheless, he didn't care, as he was happy with what he has, even if they were small.

Li Xin didn't know what he was thinking, so she felt weird about his gaze. But before she could think about it, the doorbell rang, attracting everyone's attention.

"XinXin, go open the door. It's Aunty Eliza and Emily," Li Wei informed, as his clone told him about it.

Hearing this, Li Xin became stunned, but she nodded and gently put down his head down from her lap before going to open the door with the others, leaving Irene and Li Wei alone in the training room.

Li Wei was still exhausted, but he stood up and sat on the nearby bench to rest as he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Li Wei, you shouldn't use so many attributes at once. You can definitely get used to the strength faster, but it's not worth it if you get bedridden for a week," Irene advised as she saw through what he was trying to do.

Hearing this, Li Wei nodded.

"Miss Irene, I know about this, so don't worry. I just wanted to see how far I can go," he replied with a disappointed sigh as he checked the newly learned skills.

While Irene, who was watching him, could only see him hovering his fingers in midair, which made her pout with curiosity. Experience the adventure on m|vl_em|p_yr

"Brother Wei, why don't you tell me your secret when you already know mine?" she muttered with pitiful eyes, taking a seat beside him.

Li Wei was speechless at her acting and shook his head.

"Miss Irene, your secret is useless," he replied with a sigh, making her irritated.

"Li Wei! What do you mean my secret is useless? If somebody knows, they might start a war because of it," Irene shouted with a sulky look.

While hearing this, Li Wei nodded in agreement.

"Yes, that's the reason why it's useless, because if I revealed it, nothing would go according to my plan," he replied with a shrug.

The secret she was talking about was none other than her ability to increase the spirit attributes of others.

If it were known to someone, there would be many people hunting for her. But here, it wasn't the case, which meant she has gained this ability recently, and only a few people were aware of it.

Li Wei didn't know why she told them about a secret like this and nor did he care too much, as long as it could help Li Xin and others become stronger.

Irene too knew this from his expression, so she could only pout in anger.

'Humph, just wait. I'll know all your secrets,' she thought with a snort as she took out her communication tool to do something.
