Battle of Attrition

12/7/2025

"As for that, I’m not entirely sure. Back then, to escape the war in the Spirit Realm, I and the other three chose to withdraw and went to Exile Town."

Samantha Simons spoke as Ray Lin scratched his head and smiled.

"I’ve never seen Mr. Brown’s true strength. But as far as I know, he’s never lost a single fight in the Spirit Realm."

Hugh Thompson nodded, took off his glasses with shattered lenses, and tossed them aside.

We just need to hold out until midnight. Those guys probably know very well what Quentin Yin and the others are up to. And the other Ghost Sovereigns will likely notice what’s happening here and rush over. See? They’re getting anxious.

As soon as Hugh Thompson finished speaking, I saw two Blue-Faced Men rapidly moving toward us.

"Let’s strike together and take them out."

Evan Zhao spoke, but Hugh Thompson shook his head.

"If we reveal our trump cards now, it’ll only hasten our deaths." As he spoke, he looked at Mia Lin.

"Miss Lin, I’m counting on you."

Mia Lin nodded. Though the Blue Wraiths were slightly injured, they seemed mostly fine. Ray Lin raised his hand and smiled, watching Mia Lin fly off as he spoke.

"Miss Lin, don’t worry. In a crisis, you can count on me!"

Mia Lin nodded, transformed into a ball of green light, and flew toward the two Blue-Faced Men.

"There’s no point in dragging this out. Let’s end it quickly—it’s already boring."

As Luke Ling spoke, the Blue-Faced Man on the left suddenly accelerated, charging at Mia Lin. With a swish, Mia Lin swung her whip at the Blue-Faced Man, while the other one bypassed her and targeted us.

"Stay focused, kid!"

Old Nine shouted. Suddenly, the Blue-Faced Man attacking Mia Lin dodged her whip, grabbed it with one hand, and his entire body began to swell. With a ripping sound, his clothes burst as his muscles expanded. He raised his fist and roared.

"Fivefold... Extreme..."

"Flame Sawtooth..."

With a ripping sound, I saw Mia Lin yank back her whip from the Blue-Faced Man’s grasp. Flames, like jagged sawteeth, instantly sliced a deep gash across the Blue-Faced Man’s palm.
