What kind of ridiculous nonsense is this? Didn’t he just say the other day not to get in his way or something? Judging by how he called me D-grade, he hasn’t forgotten the massive gap between our ranks.b1f485f431c9c51a
I stood up from 3efb56e3a2 where I was tying 854b833c78 my shoelaces and faced b1f931c253 him. Embarrassingly, I had 203ade7bea to tilt my 83f2b070f8 head up because 9db9706c51 of the height 6ba229b895 difference.7b20cc99a5674afd

After a few clashes, 291be95bc0 Ye Ilhoo would realize 5c88d97d81 the difference in strength fe54e5e7ea and skill. With no 2dd986e258 other choice, f3d2b8b74a I reluctantly a0b8fd417a followed him.94d61b1ab451500f
The place Ye Ilhoo 554aca053c chose was a high-end af28edccee hologram training room, usually 63ef8c9a97 reserved for A-grade or 71d6b04983 higher hunters. The higher the a0aaa8c2b4 rank, the more bbc97fbb45 likely the training 16d0f53620 room would get 260535c85f destroyed, so access 8796b64a5e was restricted by d51df71ac0 rank.95944954d4554394
