"So, what's your power level, Master Hope? Immortal-level? Holy-level?"
"Huh… Well, just Master-level," Baiyi replied simply.
Quite unexpectedly, the belle who was well on her way towards becoming a widow covered her mouth lightly as she chuckled heartily, "Master Hope has such penchants for jests! You just haven't gotten the chance to sit for a Strength Level Exam, have you?"
'That exam isn't the point! The point is — why would someone still be able to smile so joyfully when her own beloved husband's life was hanging by a thread?'
Baiyi had not seen Vidomina smile this happily before.

The revelation and confrontation — will be unveiled in the next chapter! Onwards, true believers!
