After speaking, Liu Ergou turned to the fifth man, who was lying obediently on the ground. "Tsk. And what about you? Why aren't you moving?" he asked playfully.
Upon hearing this, the man on the ground immediately answered, "There's an old saying: a man's got to know his limitations. I'm not good at much, but I am self-aware. We're all at the Hidden Strength level, yet you beat me like it was child's play. Even if I could get a temporary boost, what good would it do if I still couldn't beat you?" He jutted his chin toward the others. "I have no desire to end up like them. I'd rather just lie here quietly and save myself some pain."
This speech took Liu Ergou by surprise, and he burst out laughing.
