Fade was slightly surprised by Romeo's reaction. It seemed that he knew to think for himself, instead of listening to others' opinions.
After teaching Lester a lesson, Romeo's gaze fell onto Fade again as he stated, "If you want to be my instructor, let me see what you can do."
With a roar, Romeo instantly started to attack. As if he was a cheetah, he rushed towards Fade, leaving an afterimage behind.
There was an explosion from the turbulence of their impact. There was a long whistling sound that gave everyone goosebumps and a chill down their spines.
"This is the strength of the late stage of the Earth Level. As expected of Romeo!" Lester started to cheer in excitement.
Evan was also surprised as he watched Romeo with astonishment.
When his father, Hensley, invited Romeo to their house, Evan had witnessed his strength that was at the middle stage of Earth Level. His overwhelming power had shocked Evan. He had seen the true strength of a martial arts master.
However, compared to the current Romeo, Lester's strength back then was still a little weaker. With the pressure and momentum that Romeo gave, even a layman who knew nothing about martial arts could feel it too.
Evan now understood why Lester held him back, and claimed that Romeo was powerful.
Apart from being shocked, he was also excited. Since Romeo was so powerful, then Fade certainly would be no match for him. Somehow, Romeo had helped him to teach Fade a lesson.
Evan found himself less displeased with Romeo's nonchalant attitude.
Just as almost everyone was shocked and oppressed by Romeo's strength, Fade narrowed his eyes and nodded while Romeo was rushing towards him. "It's indeed the strength of the late stage of Earth Level. It's really good to have the strength of the late stage of Earth Level at such a young age."
"Take this move of mine first, then comment on me!" Romeo snorted coldly and threw a punch straight to Fade's chest.
Thud!
Faced with Romeo's fierce attack, Fade's brows furrowed as his expression grew grim. The positive energy in his body started to surge and it gathered in his right palm through the meridians.
His palm became as smooth as jade, and it was surrounded by a layer of hazy fog, which was startling for the others.
"Flashy, what a cheap trick!" Romeo snorted coldly when he saw this. His momentum grew even more stronger, like a ferocious tiger that was roaring and trying to pounce on him to make a fatal move.
Just as he was about to strike with all his strength, Fade's right palm had already struck forward and clashed with Romeo's fist.
In an instant, a loud "thud" was heard. The two collided and the wind whistled around them. Then, it spread out like an explosion.
At first, Romeo felt as if his fist had hit a hard wall. Then, a majestic and huge force bounced back, hitting directly against Romeo's right arm from Fade's palm.
"Oh no..." Romeo was shocked when he noticed this energy. He quickly withdrew his fist and retreated at the same time, trying to avoid it.
Romeo smiled and continued, "Don't look at me like this. I don't have anything against you. It's just that I'm a person who has always admired the strong. If there's a guy up there who's putting on a show to be my instructor, then I definitely won't accept it."
"Now, I've witnessed your strength. It was beyond my expectations and I approve of you as an instructor," he remarked.
After a pause, he suddenly thought of something and stood before Fade. He gave a solemn salute and declared loudly, "I'm Romeo, the captain of the Gold Squad of the Five Elements Squad of Stealth. It's my honor to meet you, Instructor Chen. Please accept my apology."
Romeo's behavior shocked Fade slightly. However, it was a good thing for him since Romeo did not have any ill feelings towards him.
He nodded and replied, "I accept your apology. However, the punishment of returning to the team late is still unavoidable. After returning to the team, you have to clean up the base's washroom!"
"Yes!" Romeo quickly replied.
Lester was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Romeo, whom he regarded as someone who would back him up, would give in to Fade. He even agreed to clean the toilet without hesitation.
In the past, in the base of the Stealth, even Baldrick would not give such an order to Romeo.
After all, he was the most powerful one in the Five Elements Squad. At the same time, he was also a member of the Hsing Family in Capital City. He also had the support of the legendary hidden family. With such powerful strength and background, it could be said that he was an independent being in the Stealth Team.
However, this arrogant and independent Romeo had surrendered to Fade with just one move.
