My Ability Pool is Superior - Chapter 397: Then Let Me Ask You

Watching this master who acted so entitled, Lu Bai suddenly laughed.

He stepped forward to stand in front of the master. Since he stood close enough, he even had a somewhat condescending feeling.

“You gibbered on and on, which can only prove that you yourself have no combat ability, right?”

The master’s expression visibly stiffened. He had proactively returned to his seat to show a calm and fearless due to backing posture. He never imagined that Lu Bai wouldn’t play by the rules at all and would walk so close to speak to him.

Standing up again right after sitting down would make it seem like he was scared by Lu Bai, and his aura would vanish completely.

And if he didn’t stand up, just looking up at Lu Bai like that, it would be even more ridiculous.

The master hesitated left and right for a moment, finally choosing to shift his gaze to the food tray in front of him, forcing himself not to look at Lu Bai, barely maintaining the last bit of dignity.

“Not speaking anymore?”

Lu Bai looked down at this so-called master, somewhat amused.

In fact, he deliberately got so close on purpose, and his tone switched to a rare arrogant attitude, mostly to bait this master into making the first move.

He said in his mouth that there was no combat ability, but the opponent could easily twist off a person’s head, which couldn’t be considered no combat ability at all. At most, the opponent’s strength just needed some discussion.

And the master clearly couldn’t endure Lu Bai’s attitude either.

But the more Lu Bai acted without any concern, the less this master dared to act rashly.

The reason was that he had never seen such a confident human in reality.

Either brainless hotheads, or truly fearless due to backing.

This master rationally thought Lu Bai was most likely the former, but he didn’t dare to bet.

He hoped to live a bit longer, at least to learn more about Lu Bai’s situation and personality.

To be honest, entering the deathmatch arena as replicants, they often saw those outstanding humans who could look down on them in the deathmatch arena, and they were helpless.

But these so-called masters wouldn’t care, because they all knew that was just the deathmatch arena.

After all, as long as a tribe’s population was large enough, some incomprehensible super-spec individuals would always appear. Only such individuals could make their tribe leap forward.

When two different tribes were in opposition, such individuals could support a tribe’s backbone.

However, all of this presupposed that the gap between the two tribes wasn’t too large.

Just like Shu Han after Liu Bei entrusted his orphans, fighting against Cao Wei, with internal hidden dangers everywhere, it was still one mine fighting nine mines. Even the prime minister hailed as the eternal embodiment of wisdom was powerless to turn the tide.

And compared to the tribe the master belonged to, humanity’s gap was even more exaggerated than one mine fighting nine mines.

The generational gap in technology was despairingly large; it fundamentally couldn’t be reversed by producing one or two geniuses.

Let alone under strict supervision, such individuals wouldn’t even have time to grow before being nipped in the bud.

“Since you’re not speaking, then I’ll ask.”

Relying on the existence of Steel Body, Lu Bai reached out without any concern to touch this master’s head, completely unconcerned about the opponent taking the chance for a sneak attack: “I have a lot of questions I want to ask you.”

All the settlement leaders present stared blankly at everything that happened during this time.

Lu Bai treating this master like a pet, with that attitude, made them recall the mysterious and profound demeanor the masters had shown in the past, and they inevitably felt a huge sense of absurdity.

How could a master tolerate someone shitting on his head?

Could it be testing their loyalty?

Some settlement leaders couldn’t help but have such thoughts. Driven by the desire for a better life, a scruffy-bearded settlement leader gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: “Fuck your mother! What the hell are you doing?!”

They cursed, but no settlement leader truly dared to personally attack Lu Bai.

After the scruffy-bearded middle-aged man finished cursing, he gave his henchman an eye signal, indicating for the henchman to hurry up and handle it.

In the end, although those titles made Lu Bai’s aura seem quite intimidating, he hadn’t shown any superior power, and he seemed about the same as an ordinary person.

“Who brought you here? Want to die?!”

The two henchmen were unsure in their hearts but weren’t scared either.

Cursing angrily while walking toward Lu Bai.

“See that? That’s your race’s inherent flaw.”

That settlement leader’s choice finally gave the master’s pent-up frustration an outlet.

To be honest, he didn’t think these people could threaten Lu Bai; he just felt that with this happening, he could regain some initiative in the scene.

However, to his surprise, Lu Bai didn’t even turn his head, merely raising his hand with a snap.

Invisible airflow in the air turned into two sharp wind blades.

Flashing past, two fine heads flew straight to the restaurant ceiling on the spot, then crashed heavily to the ground.

The necks’ smooth cross-sections instantly spurted blood, splattering radial crimson patterns on the table.

Seeing this scene, everyone present, whether settlement leaders or the henchmen they brought, every single one gasped.

They had considered the possibility of Lu Bai striking, but they completely hadn’t expected it to be so casual.

“Death fighter?”

“And one who retained abilities?!”

They were also humans and could enter the deathmatch arena too.

But compared to the underground shelter, these ground settlements, due to their sparse population, had very few death fighters in the present world who could use abilities.

Even if such elites existed, they would quickly be recruited by the master.

“You didn’t think I was some saint, did you?”

After doing all this, the smile on Lu Bai’s face hadn’t changed at all.

Against the backdrop of two humanoid blood fountains behind him, this harmless smile instead gave the onlookers a chilling sense of dissonance.

“Alright, now it’s quiet, so I’ll ask you.”

Lu Bai pondered for half a second, then continued: “First question, what’s your race’s name?”

The master inwardly shook violently, forcibly controlling himself to remain silent.

“No need to say it, it’s just a name anyway. I’ll call you replicants.”

Lu Bai seemed very reasonable and didn’t strike because of the other’s silence.

“Next, second question. The deathmatch system shouldn’t belong to you, right? At least you replicants can’t control it, and without wrapping in a layer of human shell, you can’t even enter the deathmatch arena. I’m right, aren’t I?”

The master still chose silence.

Seeing this, the smile on Lu Bai’s face grew even brighter: “Sometimes no answer is also an answer. Looks like I guessed right.”

A trace of barely perceptible solemnity flashed in the master’s eyes.
