Chapter 36: Instantly Defeated x Super-Speed Block
"Be careful!"
Luo Lin shouted before charging forward with all his strength, not hesitating for a moment.
After all, against someone like Biscuit, he wasn't in any position to hold back.
"His strength and speed aren't bad…"
Biscuit nodded slightly as she watched Luo Lin rush toward her.
For someone who hadn't yet learned Nen, having this level of strength and speed was indeed quite impressive, especially considering…
Given the childish way he'd been training before, it was remarkable that he had this much ability now. In a way, that really was a form of genius.
However, before Biscuit could finish her silent praise, her expression dropped.
Luo Lin had reached her and threw a full-force punch, the wind from his fist whistling as it came at her with considerable power and speed.
But Biscuit took a light step forward, and her petite figure slipped right into his guard. Her fist struck his chest.
With terrifying force, Luo Lin was sent flying.
He flew through the air for more than ten meters before barely managing to stop himself. Of course, since Biscuit had used controlled force, even though he was sent flying that far, he wasn't hurt.
Still, Luo Lin's expression was one of disbelief.
He knew he couldn't be a match for Biscuit, but being defeated in an instant like this? That was too fast!
What surprised him more was that Biscuit hadn't used overwhelming strength against him. Even that push she used didn't feel significantly stronger than his own power.
At that moment, Biscuit frowned as she walked over, looking at Luo Lin with disappointment:
"Your power application is terrible, your ability to absorb impact is terrible, and you have almost no combat experience."
"You're just relying on your physical strength in fights, and doing it badly. You—are you really the genius Netero talked about? I honestly don't know what he saw in you," Biscuit scolded him mercilessly, hands on her hips.
Luo Lin, however, didn't take it to heart. After all, everything Biscuit said was true, and he understood that himself.
In the end, he was just an ordinary person who had suddenly become strong. Just half a month ago, he hadn't been in more than a handful of fights in his life.
Of course he wouldn't know anything about techniques like power application or how to absorb impacts.
During the Hunter test, he could rely on raw strength, speed, and his natural balance and flexibility to succeed.
But now, facing a martial arts master like Biscuit, all his weaknesses were laid bare—it wasn't surprising.
However…
When Biscuit mentioned that Netero had called him a genius, Luo Lin realized why she had come.
Or rather, why Netero had sent her.
It was obvious that Netero had seen something specific in him, and that must be the reason.
"Master Biscuit, there's one technique I didn't get the chance to show earlier. If Netero saw something in me, this might be it," Luo Lin said directly.
Hearing this, Biscuit paused her scolding, a flash of anticipation in her eyes.
Though she had been harsh with her words, in truth, she had seen potential in Luo Lin during their brief exchange.
He might not be at the level Netero claimed, but he was still a rare gem.
Yet, this gem wasn't polished at all—in fact, it looked like someone had drawn a silly picture on the surface.
As a treasure hunter, how could Biscuit stand seeing such a valuable gem in this state?
And since she couldn't figure it out by observing or fighting him, she might as well let him show her directly.
Although inwardly pleased, Biscuit maintained a nonchalant attitude, even appearing slightly dismissive:
"Oh, another move? Show me, then. But I'll tell you now—if it doesn't impress me, then forget about me teaching you anything. I won't waste my time."
Biscuit deliberately upped the pressure, pushing him harder.
Of course, she would be the one to decide what was impressive.
And Luo Lin took the bait.
Even though he knew his foundations were weak, the brief exchange with Biscuit had made it clear how lacking he was.
So there was no way he could pass up the chance to be taught by such a capable teacher.
"Whew—"
Luo Lin took a deep breath, calming himself and focusing all his attention on Biscuit.
In the next instant, Luo Lin's concentration reached an unimaginable level.
He felt as if everything around him had frozen in place.
Time itself seemed to stop.
In this frozen moment, only Luo Lin could move freely.
Feeling his energy rapidly draining, Luo Lin didn't hesitate. He launched himself at Biscuit with explosive speed, his right hand clenched into a fist, throwing a punch with all his strength.
There was no holding back.
After his clash with Hisoka, Luo Lin had realized one thing:
Even in this ultra-speed state, he wasn't strong enough to hurt a Nen master.
So at this moment, he didn't naively believe he could injure Biscuit.
But what happened next still surprised him.
Just as his fist was about to land on Biscuit, she moved.
Her right hand appeared in front of his fist in an instant, blocking the attack.
"She blocked it…"
Luo Lin froze for a second, not expecting Biscuit to block him.
But then, he understood. After all, this wasn't a unique ability he had.
In this world, there was already a phenomenon known as shindan, where skilled fighters could perceive their opponent's moves.
There were even ridiculous figures like Netero who existed. So, it wasn't unheard of for masters to be able to enter a compressed time-sense state during high-level combat.
As a top-tier martial artist, it wasn't surprising that Biscuit could do the same.
Though many thoughts flashed through Luo Lin's mind, in this heightened state, only a moment had passed.
Having figured things out, Luo Lin immediately exited the ultra-speed state.
After all, maintaining that state was a heavy burden on his body.
"Master Biscuit, I believe this ability is what Netero saw in me." Luo Lin said, stretching his sore body and looking toward Biscuit.
