"To be honest, I do have a great deal of respect for you, solely in the area of alchemy, of course. If we were to talk about martial arts strength, you indeed fall a bit short." Chu Heng said in an offhand manner.
Fang Lin chuckled lightly, "Since you respect me, how about you just concede and give me the win?"
Chu Heng shook his head, "I am here to defeat you. If your strength is sufficient, there should be no problem."
Seeing this, Fang Lin also put away his smile, "Then let's cut the chatter and get started."
Chu Heng's face was expressionless, as he put one hand behind his back, and slightly took on a stance, appearing to allow Fang Lin to make the first move.
This type of gesture earned admiration from many Pill Refiners present. As expected of Chu Heng, who is one of the Pill Alliance's Nine Guards, he was fairly magnanimous. Not attacking first, he instead gave Fang Lin the opportunity to strike, which was considered giving Fang Lin a chance.
