Boom!
Nephis raised her arm to block, her gauntlet vibrating explosively as the punch fell.
"How can an Arcane User have such strength——"
Nephis's eyes narrowed as she staggered back a step but quickly steadied herself and threw a punch at Li Aozi's brow, a feint; her real move was a hand-chop aimed downward at his shoulder blade.
Hiss——
The sharp tips of her armored gloves immediately tore through Li Aozi's clothes, leaving only a shallow bloody mark.
Crack!
Li Aozi wasted no time, his fists hammered down on Nephis's forehead and cheeks, but each time he struck, scales would spring from the contacted areas, greatly mitigating the impact damage.
The two exchanged blows for the first time upon meeting and promptly distanced themselves, adjusting their stances and warily eyeing each other.
"Tsk, truly worthy of being the final boss; that damage is really high..."
Li Aozi ran his hand over the bloody mark on his chest, clicking his tongue.
