But Lin Feng's attempt to downplay the situation didn't make Xu Jing's face relax.
"Lin Feng, don't lie to me; you can't fool me!" Xu Jing pointed to Lin Feng's little finger, still trembling slightly on the table, and said in a low voice, "Look at your hand. It's clear that you've overused your Inner Strength... You dummy, the inter-department tug-o'-war is just a friendly competition, so why did you have to put so much effort into it? Overexerting your Inner Strength like this is bad for your health!"
Lin Feng was a bit shocked upon hearing Xu Jing's words. In fact, he hadn't exhausted his Inner Strength as much as Xu Jing implied. His trembling fingers were due to the intense output of Inner Strength, not exhaustion.
"Teacher, you've misunderstood. I'm really fine," Lin Feng said to Xu Jing with a smile. "Don't worry about how I look now; I can still kill a couple of tigers with my bare hands!"
