Chapter 553 Crushed Pride

When Haruko saw that Alex was finally fighting her normally, her lips curved into a sneer. She likewise took a step forward and gathered her energy into her palm before punching it toward his approaching palm.

She ranked first among the Masters in Jetroina, and her Mortal Force was exceedingly strong, even more so than that of the average Master.

Because of that, she had zero doubt that she could shatter Alex’s arm in a single blow and send him flying a few meters away.

But in the next moment, her heart abruptly lurched when her palm was an inch away from his.

A sense of danger suddenly surged within her. She wanted to withdraw her hand and dodge, but it was already too late.

An immense force burst forth from Alex’s palm, so strong that it could shatter her palm.
