Trillionaire's Slice of Life

The ponytailed girl rose from her seat. She extended her hands to tightly bind her long hair, shook her head, and the ponytail swung left and right behind her. After taking a deep breath, the girl dressed in white casual attire approached Lei Ting.

Chu Mo slightly lifted his eyebrows; he had initially made a casual remark, never expecting this girl named Pei Er to be so bold as to actually dare to challenge a martial arts Great Grandmaster.

What Chu Mo didn't know was that a single glance from Lei Ting had terrified Pei Er to the point of immobility, and it had taken a tremendous effort for her to overcome that inner fear.

If Pei Er didn't conquer her fear today, her timidity and weakness would be etched deeply into her heart, possibly causing her to remain at the level of a fourth-degree black belt forever, never being able to advance further.

Pei Er might appear frail and delicate, but her family was a martial arts household. Her grandfather was a judo expert, and having been trained and influenced by her family from a young age, along with her considerable natural talent and love for judo, she was able to reach the pinnacle standard of a fourth-degree black belt at her age.

Pei Er set high standards for herself; her dream was to become a master of the black belt, seventh degree or higher, to become someone who could bring glory to her country.

If she didn't confront her fear today, then nearly twenty years of effort would be in vain, and she would never achieve her dream. That's why, despite knowing the considerable gap between herself and the towering man before her, Pei Er still mustered her courage and bravely stood in front of him.

As a Great Grandmaster of martial arts, Lei Ting was 1.95 meters tall, with explosive muscles in a blue suit that stretched at the seams, his square face, coupled with an aura as imposing as a mountain, made him truly seem like a human tank. An ordinary person would probably bow their head, not daring to meet his gaze.

At this moment, Pei Er had already taken her stance, ready to strike, while Lei Ting remained expressionless. To this Great Grandmaster, there were only five other martial arts Great Grandmasters currently existing in Hua Country worth his serious attention. Among them, the one he respected most was the Shaolin Abbot, and the one for whom he was most grateful was Jiang Dingnan, who had helped stabilize his foundation.

In Lei Ting's world, only these five martial arts Great Grandmasters were worthy of his full commitment—and to be considered worthy of his effort, one had to be at least a half-step Grandmaster.

At the last martial arts conference, Lei Ting had defeated a newly-minted half-step Grandmaster in a single move. Below the level of a half-step Grandmaster, he had no interest in acting—and as for women...

It wasn't that Lei Ting disparaged women; even twenty years ago, when there were the most Great Grandmasters, none of the ten martial arts Great Grandmasters were female, and now, including himself, none of the existing six were women either.

In Lei Ting's mind, even half-step Grandmasters rarely included women, let alone the ponytailed girl before him, who was merely top-tier third-rate, not even reaching the lower end of second-rate. Engaging in a fight with such a person would only demean his status as a Great Grandmaster.

Lei Ting, with his indifferent expression, didn't even spare the ponytailed girl a glance. However, the girl named Pei Er was placing her entire future, her entire life, on this one fight. So, even though she knew how strong the opponent was, and even though she knew she would lose, she still clenched her teeth and exerted all her strength to confront him.

Xu Wanying, who was in the booth, originally wanted to come forward to persuade her, but Zhou Ruyi shook her head to stop her. Zhou Ruyi knew the character of her best friend too well; not letting Pei Er fight this battle could become her lifelong regret.

Many patrons of the bar had initially focused on the three stunning goddesses in the corner, but as the commotion began, everyone's attention turned to this spot, their eyes filled with excitement and curiosity.

Just as a lively song in the bar came to an end, and a slightly more intense melody began, accompanied by a sharp cry, the ponytailed girl who had taken a deep breath finally stepped forward, and her callused fists quickly aimed at the towering man before her.

'Bang!'

'Ha...!'

The white-clad ponytailed girl's fist landed fiercely on Lei Ting's ribs. Pei Er had used all her strength for that punch; faced with such a skilled opponent, she didn't hold back, exploding with all her might in an instant.

Although Pei Er was just a woman, she had trained in martial arts from a young age. Nearly twenty years of refinement had given her an exceptionally strong physique; otherwise, she couldn't have achieved the standard of a fourth-degree black belt at her age.

Compared to the soft and delicate hands of the average young girl, Pei Er's hands were full of calluses—those thick calluses represented her past efforts, as well as the hardships of her twenty years.

Pei Er, Zhou Ruyi, and Xu Wanying were the best of friends. All three of them had a beauty score of over ninety-seven, and wherever they went, they were the center of attention, naturally attracting numerous disturbances.

Not to mention, just within this bar, there had been dozens of frivolous men who had come up to flirt, but without exception, they were all driven away by Pei Er. Even now, no one dared to come forward and cause trouble anymore.

And all of this was thanks to Pei Er's profound martial skills.
