The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 597: Chapter 597 What ultimate technique is so terrifying?_1

”Rocky Stein, you’re up this round.”

While the Frost Family Members were dumbfounded by Leah Frost’s performance, Carson Flores turned his head and began to assign the next contestant.

”Just try your best, no need to go overboard.”

A touch of gratitude flashed in Rocky Stein’s eyes, ”Okay, I’ll do my best.”

Rocky Stein walked to the center of the valley and waited quietly.

After much discussion on the Hoffman Family’s side, Second Generation Disciple Jared Hoffman stepped out.

It wasn’t the strongest Rylan Hoffman, nor the next in line Marco Hoffman.

The two didn’t exchange words, they just started fighting right away.

This bout was incredibly fierce.

After watching for a while, Carson Flores shook his head, ”I don’t think she’ll win.”

Shirley Miller nodded in agreement, ”The opponent indeed has greater strength. Plus, the other side is in no hurry and fights steadily, aiming to wear her down. As a woman, Rocky Stein is at a disadvantage in a war of attrition. She probably doesn’t stand a chance.”

About five minutes into the fight, Rocky Stein began to show signs of defeat.

Rocky Stein clenched her teeth, struggling to hold on.

She wanted to win too, and she was even ready to go all out, but the opponent wasn’t impatient or aggressive, not giving her any chance. The moment she tried to fight at close quarters, the opponent would pull back, creating space, and defend flawlessly.

”Rocky Stein, come back. We concede this round.”

Just as Rocky Stein was about to burst with pressure from the opponent, Carson Flores’s voice rang out, surrendering the second round.

Rocky Stein returned, her aged face unable to hide her shame, ”Carson Flores, I’m sorry.”

Carson Flores gave a slight smile, ”No worries, you did your best.”

On the Hoffman side, Hank Hoffman whispered a few words to Rylan Hoffman, and his expression much softened.

So far, it was one-to-one. The match had changed from best-of-five to best-of-three. Although Flores’s side had to fight twice and was at some disadvantage, Carson’s trump card, Leah Frost, had already been played.

Thinking it over carefully, victory was within grasp!

For the third round, Jay Hoffman.

Carson Flores pondered for a moment, then turned his head and said, ”Mary Jimenez, you’re up for this third round.”

The strongest two of the Hoffman Family hadn’t yet entered the fray. The fourth round would start with Carson Flores’s choice, giving the Hoffman Family the advantage of choosing their fighter. In the final round, the decisive battle, they would have to send their remaining strong contestant. Even if they lost the third round, they had the confidence to take the last two.

If Carson Flores or Shirley Miller took the initiative and won the third round, with only one strong opponent left, their chances of ultimate victory would increase.

Carson Flores was ready to ambush the opponents once more, aiming to strike them with a stunning blow!

Not wanting to expose Shirley Miller to risk, Carson Flores decided to deal with the harder challenge of Rylan Hoffman himself.

The consensus among everyone was that their Combat Power was less than Shirley Miller’s, but what they didn’t know was that Carson Flores’s strength had surged greatly recently. He was going to surprise them all once again.

Shirley Miller nodded her head in understanding. The situation had become clear.

A tough battle for Carson Flores was unavoidable. If she went on now, it would be easier for her. If she waited for the next round, it might not be a guaranteed win.

Shirley Miller strolled into the arena, causing the surrounding spectators to pause.

Wasn’t Shirley Miller the most formidable one?

She was going in now?

If anyone was to go first, shouldn’t it be Carson Flores, leaving Shirley Miller to make a final, desperate effort?

”Could it be they’ve given up?”

”Even if they don’t want to give up, what can they do? Rylan Hoffman and Marco Hoffman haven’t fought yet.”

”In the fourth battle, it’s Carson Flores’s turn to choose. No matter who he picks, they’ll lose. Then the last person must fight in the fifth round and will still lose. It’s a sure loss. Isn’t it better to win the third round beautifully, at least to save face?”

”Indeed, that’s the logic. The two of them are strong, but their teammates are too weak.”

Rylan Hoffman and Hank Hoffman exchanged glances and both breathed a sigh of relief.

There was no suspense left.

Rylan Hoffman turned and said, ”Marco, I’ll handle Carson Flores. You take on the other one.”

Marco Hoffman nodded coolly, his expression unchanging, for in his view, the Hoffman Family’s victory was a foregone conclusion.

In the arena, Shirley Miller and Jay Hoffman began their confrontation.

Without a word, Shirley Miller launched her best move right from the start.

Sword Finger!

Shirley Miller’s Sword Finger was incredibly sharp, akin to a real sword, indestructible, without any frenzied movements, just a terrifying momentum of a sword piercing through everything.

Although Jay Hoffman was strong, facing Shirley Miller’s Sword Finger, he was clearly outmatched.

With one strike of the Sword Finger, blood sprayed.

Jay Hoffman’s arm muscles exploded, blood dripped, and his complexion turned instantly pale as paper.

Horror-stricken, Jay Hoffman retreated.

Shirley Miller didn’t pursue him, merely stating indifferently, ”You’re no match for me. Concede.”

Jay Hoffman, looking at the ethereal Shirley Miller before him, flashed an expression of fright and without hesitation said, ”I concede.”

Only by facing Shirley Miller’s Sword Finger head-on could one truly experience its terror.

What kind of extraordinary technique was this?

So terrifying?

The crowd was astonished.

Just one move?

Shirley Miller had defeated Jay Hoffman with only one move?

Surprise was evident in Rylan Hoffman’s eyes as well, hard to conceal. He found it difficult to imagine how such delicate fingers, such a light touch, could possess such destructive power.

If he faced Shirley Miller, could he really win?

While Rylan Hoffman had been full of confidence, suddenly he found himself lacking any confidence at all...
