Cultivating through increasing my stats in America

Slipping out of grip, aside from occasions when it’s truly unintentional, is actually a technique in Arm Wrestling.

It’s often a deliberate move by the person at a disadvantage during the contest to end that round and secure some time to catch their breath and adjust their state.

In order to prevent this from happening repeatedly, competitors usually have their wrists bound together with straps after a slip in the next round.

However, today’s situation clearly didn’t necessitate this.

Li Ang pretended to be fatigued as he shook his wrist, saying to Griffin:

"I’m too worn out from today’s training. I’ll seek you out next time when I’m in better shape for learning and competing."

The implication of these words seemed like he was making excuses for himself, and coupled with his recent slip, it was an acknowledgment of his slight inferiority to Griffin today.

Griffin appeared stunned for a second, then quickly agreed.

"Of course, no problem. You also have tremendous talent. Being able to reach this level on your first try at arm wrestling, you could definitely compete in official matches after a bit of training."

Having said this, Griffin was evidently embarrassed, but he didn’t have the courage to admit that Li Ang’s strength had overwhelmingly surpassed his own.

Because only he knew that even when Li Ang was not exerting his full strength, he had completely immobilized him. Griffin had exerted all his might yet couldn’t move Li Ang’s wrist in the slightest.

And when this young man began to exert force, it felt to him as though he was wrestling against a machine. The sensation was as if it wasn’t a human he was arm-wrestling with, but rather a hydraulic press.
