Zhang's smirk widened as he sauntered closer, his movements fluid and graceful. "Just thought I'd see if the rumors were true." he continued, his tone laced with a playful challenge. "Word on the street is you've made quite the leap in rank. Impressive. so I figured we could have a friendly little duel," he replied, his tone casual but the challenge in his eyes unmistakable.
