Chapter 712: Social Club (2)
Li Guorui thought about it carefully, he had never exposed his abilities in front of anyone.
How could Brother Li possibly know?
Meanwhile, Li Xiaofei smirked inwardly. He had already seen through Li Guorui’s secret from the very first day they met. This young man had awakened a superpower. It was not just any ability either, but a rare and immensely powerful variant of lightning-based superpowers.
However, Li Xiaofei had never exposed him. In fact, he had expected it all along. After all, in another world, the strongest warrior to ever exist, Li Guorui, was powerful enough to shatter the moon with a single punch.
Now, in this world, where the age of superpowers was only just beginning, this version of Li Guorui was already ahead of the curve. Bringing him to this international exchange event between Great Xia and Jiepeng’s superhumans would be a valuable experience.
If this event inspired him... If he could awaken his powers further... Then Li Guorui’s strength would skyrocket to the next level. Reaching Earth Level would only be a matter of time.
“Go on. I’ll come find you later.” Li Xiaofei gave him a pat on the shoulder before instructing one of the staff members to lead Li Guorui to the rest lounge. He still had other matters to attend to.

VIP Room.
A frail yet imposing elderly man with snow-white hair and beard sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, his eyes closed in quiet contemplation.
He was dressed in Jiepeng’s traditional aristocratic attire, a long-sleeved robe with exaggerated, pointed shoulder guards. The attire had a collar that was left open by three finger-widths and pants that extended past his feet and dragged along the floor in a display of noble status.
To his left and right, five young warriors in red-and-white samurai uniforms knelt in perfect symmetry. They all had distinctive moon-topknots, rugged features and crimson sashes tied around their waists, with short wakizashi blades sheathed at their sides.
