"This... " Bexia didn't know how to explain. He didn't fully understand his own body now. He couldn't define his limit when it came to falling to the ground, but one thing was certain: in terms of destructive power, it was no less than that of a warrior.

"You've already reached Extreme?!" Luo Zhen opened his mouth, but found it ridiculous as soon as he spoke. How could Bexia, who was so young, have the strength of Extreme? It was simply a joke.

"I only have the strength of a mid-level two-star, but my body is stronger, so your attacks don't have much effect on me!" Bexia said simply and clearly.

However, he was also surprised by Luo Zhen's attacks, because they were no longer within the scope of magic power. They tended towards the control of new powers. This shockwave-like power, although controlled by magic power, was not magic power at all. It could even penetrate most of the power and directly attack the enemy's vulnerable parts such as the internal organs and bones. In his opinion, with extremely strong control, it could even hit the power and directly destroy the enemy's brain or heart, instantly killing them. It was simply unstoppable!

"I concede!" Luo Zhen sighed and admitted defeat after hearing Bexia's words. In the two areas he considered himself good at, one was not a match for Bexia, and the other was completely useless. How could he continue fighting?

Moreover, in his opinion, Bexia hadn't even made a move yet, and he already had no chance of winning. It was better to admit defeat directly, at least to save face. If he were to be defeated later, it would truly be a humiliation. After all, Luo Zhen was a prominent figure in the city of Wen'en. He didn't want to lose too much face!

"I yield!" Bexia also imitated the two young men on the stage and said to Luo Zhen.

"Thank you for your guidance!" Luo Zhen clasped his fists and said, "I was presumptuous just now. I didn't expect you to be so strong!"

"It's nothing!" Bexia casually apologized to Luo Zhen, but he actually looked at him with a different perspective. It seemed that what the old captain said was true. This person from Anzu was quite friendly.

"I told you, Master is amazing. You guys are no match at all!" Christine couldn't wait and rushed over to Bexia as soon as he stepped down from the stage. She hung on him like a little cat and looked at Luo Zhen provocatively.

"Don't bother with her. That's just how she is!" Bexia affectionately touched Christine's head. Although he said that, he didn't blame her at all. It was just for show.

"It's okay. Little sister is very cute!" Luo Zhen smiled awkwardly. After all, he was already in his thirties. If he got angry with a little girl, it would be beneath his dignity.

"I was wrong just now. I apologize to little sister. It's getting late now, so I have to go back. Bexia, if you have a chance, come to the Hidden Dragon Workshop to find me. We can have a few drinks. You should know that the wine in Anzu is unparalleled on the continent!"

"I will definitely come if I have the chance!" Bexia thought it was nice to make friends with someone as generous as Luo Zhen. He wasn't in a hurry, and he was also a disciple of Master Hidden Dragon, so they were equal in status. They were both "second-generation elites"!

"You lost and you're still so arrogant!"

"Anzu's people are all like this!" Bexia continued, "Christine, don't criticize others. This whole thing was caused by you. Otherwise, how could it have happened..."

"Master~! I'm sorry~!" Christine immediately changed to a soft and sweet cat-like voice when Bexia was about to lecture her. She hugged Bexia's neck and rubbed her cheek against his face, showing no sign of knowing that she was wrong. Instead, she acted coquettishly.

"Young people these days really know how to play..."

"That's right. Hearing that made my skin crawl!"

"I, who am known as a charming figure among the flowers, have never played such a game. Just hearing about it makes me..."

Listening to the surrounding conversation, Bexia realized that they were still in the square. He felt a little embarrassed and paused for a moment. Then he said to Christine, "Alright! Let's go sign up for the competition. We still have the public mansion to go to later!"

"Okay!" Christine nodded.

"Then you can come down first!"

"No, master, just hold me. I suddenly feel tired and want to take a nap."

"Don't be silly!"

"......" Christine didn't reply, burying her head in Bexia's arms and leaning against him as if she were really asleep.

"Christine! Christine...!" Bexia called her twice, lowered his head to look at her closed eyes, sighed helplessly. Even if the voice was loud, you couldn't wake up someone pretending to be asleep.

"Fine! Then you can sleep for a while!" Bexia lifted Christine's legs and carried her horizontally. Recently, for some reason, Christine always liked to act spoiled, but Bexia tolerated it. After all, in his opinion, this kind of Christine was more like a person than a weapon.

As for Bexia's personality, he was actually very easygoing, but he was very persistent about things he cared about, which was what people commonly referred to as being protective. No matter how the people around him were, as long as they didn't cross Bexia's bottom line, he would tolerate and take care of them, even indulge them.

"Could you all please make way for a moment? I'm not very convenient!" Bexia said to the crowd heading to the Dragon God Conference registration point. It was not suitable for him to squeeze in while carrying Christine.

Anzu's people were still easy to talk to, especially after seeing Luo Zhen's surrender just now. Out of respect for the strong, this kind of thing was completely instinctive. Moreover, Bexia was so polite when he spoke, and these people were not blind. They immediately made way, but many people whispered that Bexia and Christine were a clingy couple. Bexia didn't explain anything about this because there was simply no need.

However, the registration area was crowded with people, and there were dozens or even hundreds of people waiting in the long queue. But the registration speed was not slow, and Bexia was worried that he would have to wait in line for a long time, but that situation did not happen.

"I want to register!" Bexia said to the staff at the registration area.

"Name?"

"Bexia!"

"Where are you from?"

"Asman Kingdom!"

"How old are you this year?"

"Seventeen!"

"Let me touch your hand!"

"Touch my hand?" Bexia was puzzled, but the other party quickly explained, "This is to test your bone age and see if what you said is true!"

"Oh!" Bexia understood. It turned out they were afraid of cheating. But this method of touching bones to determine age was really novel. It was the first time he had heard of it.

"Okay! That's right!" The staff pinched his fingers, nodded, and then took out a badge with a golden dragon engraved on it and said, "This is your participation certificate. Every time you win, the referee will add a mark on it. The person who loses will have two marks deducted. When you reach ten marks, you will receive a Dragon God Order to enter the Dragon God Space at the Dragon God Ceremony!"

"Also, you have to remember that you can only fight against people of the same level as you. If not, you won't be able to add marks!"

"So, it means that I can only fight against people without marks now. When I have one mark, I must fight against someone with one mark, and so on until I have ten marks, right?"

"That's right!" The old man nodded.
