“The Head Coach is a brilliant man! His aura could shake the entire earth!”“He’s the living legend of Country H’s military force!”“How dare you call yourself that?!”“Don’t you know that you already tainted that name just by saying it?!”Teal’s gaze on Harvey was filled with ridicule and disdain.“Because of that, I hate you to the core!”“If it weren’t for me stopping myself from killing innocents…”“You wouldn’t even get the chance to get out of here!”Harvey shrugged.“Everything I said was the truth. It’s up to you whether you want to believe me or not.”“Hmph! If you’re still talking like that now, you really must be an irredeemable man.”Teal’s face was colored with a hint of rage. The Head Coach was clearly her idol. She would never let anyone tarnish the name of that wonderful man.She took a step back and snarled icily, “Take this man away! Throw him out of Hong Kong whether he likes it or not!”“Send word! If Harvey dares to call himself the Head Coach, or shows up in Hong
“People say you’re good at talking. I can see that now.”“If a God of War from Country H tells me this, I would’ve believed him.”“But you’re used to betraying others. Your promises are nothing but nonsense!”“Tell me. How should I believe you now?”“I’m just a dying old man, but I know that my country and Country H should rely on each other.”“True, there had been some conflict between us. But now, it’s all under control!”“On the other hand, us people from Nanyang will probably live horrible lives in the future if you Islanders achieve your goals. Am I right?”Akio sighed when he saw that there was no way for him to convince Dean.“So you’re saying you’re willing to walk down this path till the bitter end?” he asked calmly.“If that’s the case, then come at me!”“I’ll send you to your death!”Akio flashed Dean a grim glare. At the same time, his desire to kill Harvey became a lot more apparent.It wasn’t that long ago when Harvey arrived in Hong Kong and Las Vegas.Yet i
Clang!Akio had no choice but to swing his sword to block Dean’s attack.The swing was enough to force Dean to retreat, while also denying him the chance to kill Akio.Alas, the same swing forced Akio to cough up a lot of blood.He took a few deep breaths to stop the pain, but his hatred toward Harvey only continued to grow deeper.Seeing Akio’s wretched expression, Dean said, “You’re not even as good as Miyata. He could at least exchange a few moves with Sir York.”“But you?”“You can’t even take a single hit! You’re already scared sh*tless by Miyata’s death!”“That’s why you weren’t able to dodge Harvey’s blade!”“And now, his blade will be the death of you!”Akio laughed coldly.“Harvey’s just some random mutt!”“If I wasn’t leaving my country in a hurry and got carried away…”“That kid wouldn’t even get the chance to scratch me!”“When I get back to my country and train for another year or two, I’ll let that bastard know just how powerful I actually am!”Dean sighed.
The electric door of the car opened slowly, revealing Vince. He walked under the rain with a black umbrella shielding him, heading towards the Ferrari.He knocked on the car, signaling Lexie to roll down the window.Lexie quickly returned to her senses. Seeing Vince’s tender smile, she was unsure how she should feel. Complicated emotions surged in her.It took her a long while before she decided to open the car door. Immediately, she threw herself into Vince’s loving embrace. “I failed, Vince,” she whispered.“I couldn’t convince him, nor was I able to deal with him…”“I kept calling him filth…”“But at this point, I’m just like him…”Unbeknownst to Lexie, Vince’s face held a disdainful look.Contrary to his expression, he reached out to lightly caress Lexie’s head.“According to my news, that guy barged into the Five Virtues Temple’s forbidden grounds and met Teal,” he said calmly.“Akio wanted to use the Five Virtues Temple against him, but that plan must’ve failed,” Lexi
“If that’s really the case, then I can’t trust you after all!”“All these years, I’ve misjudged you!”Lexie raised her head and glared at Vince with a grim look.She didn’t expect Young Lord York himself to lose his mind to this extent for the sake of a mere woman.“This isn’t about being reckless, Lexie. All of Hong Kong and Las Vegas knows that the Five Virtues Temple stands behind me,” Vince calmly replied.“Even if Harvey and Teal only met by sheer coincidence, our fragile alliance with the Five Virtues Temple will crumble if someone decides to spread rumors about this. This is all the more possible when considering Teal’s status.”“Besides, as a man, I cannot allow anyone to tarnish my dignity!”“I’d rather die than let that man be with Teal.”Lexie reached out and caressed Vince’s handsome face gently.“You’d rather die?” she whispered after a long pause.“That isn’t something a noble like you should be saying, Vince.”“This is a crucial moment in your life. You need t
Vince’s eyes lit up. He then whispered into Lexie’s ears.“If we’re going to deal with my cheap mother, we’ll need to be a lot more careful.”“She’s been acting really suspicious since the past few years, but my fourth uncle still loves her all the same.”“She even has peak Kings of Arms surrounding her every waking moment.”“If we want her dead, we’ll have to make sure we succeed in one go. If not, we’ll only cause more trouble for ourselves.”“It shouldn’t be too hard.” Lexie flashed Vince a warm smile before dialing a number on her phone.“The number one killer organization of Country H, the House of Phantoms.”“They owe me a favor.”…On the next day, early in the morning. After waking up from the presidential suite of the Three Seasons Hotel, Harvey noticed a few texts on his phone.One of them was a report of Akio’s status from Katy.Other than Akio’s successful escape, the other Islanders were now in the hands of the Nanyang Gang. It probably wouldn’t end well for t
Though the outside world claimed that Selena had become a soulless husk in all these years after losing her son…But judging from her sharp deduction and her ability to figure out what happened so quickly, she must have regained the composure and decisiveness she had in her youth. Selena turned to Harvey after she was done talking, as if she wanted to know his thoughts. Harvey shrugged.“Don’t tell me you don’t have any backups for these documents, Madam Judd,” he said calmly.“I have,” Selena whispered.“I got my trusted subordinates to scan these documents beforehand, along with some of the ones that I’m not allowed to copy.”Selena couldn’t help but rub her temples.“That’s why things are a little awkward right now,” she said quietly.“I can keep investigating, but I can’t bring any proof when everything’s revealed.”“Those scanned documents mean nothing to the law!”In response, Harvey chuckled.“There’s another way of looking at this, Madam Judd.”“Some of the evid
Harvey chuckled at the sight.“Looks like it’s good for you to experience such a thing after all.”“At least you’re pretty cautious about everything.”“You live and you learn. If I’m still the same as I was before, I would’ve died without even knowing why by now,” Selena replied calmly.“After all, I figured a lot of people wanted me dead as soon as I decided to investigate the incident ten years ago.”Harvey’s pupils shrunk after hearing those words.This meant that there were quite a lot of people involved in that incident.All of Hong Kong and Las Vegas might’ve been dragged into the matter as well.Harvey narrowed his eyes at the dark sky outside the window. A storm was about to come…While the two chatted, a good-looking waitress pushed a food trolley into the room.She bowed respectfully at Selena before saying sweetly, “Your breakfast, Madam.”“Set it up here.”Selena waved her hand, and soon after, the table was filled with various delicacies.In addition to that,
As he said that, the Islander switched on his phone and started streaming the event. It was obvious he wanted to see how Harvey was going to react to this.If Harvey agreed to fight ten warriors in one go, then the people he had arranged would swarm him and kill Harvey.If Harvey refused, then he would verbally humiliate Harvey.In other words, he had made full preparations for today.Harvey calmly drank a cup of tea and clapped. Rachel, who was fully prepared, walked from the back of the crowd. She turned on her phone and played a video clip on the TV screen. In the clip, it was obvious that Hale was the one who claimed Harvey could fight ten to one, not Harvey."What? Since when must our representative bear responsibility for something he has never said? If someone said he can fight 100 to 1 suddenly, should he fight a hundred men at the same time?" Rachel said.While fighting ten to one was something simple to Harvey, he wasn't interested in being involved in a plot the Island
Once Harvey was at the Dragon Gate training hall, he narrowed his eyes.A huge crowd was right outside the entrance of the training hall. He counted at least a thousand of them with just a glance.They were all either martial arts elites or mutants. None of them were normal human beings.Of course, these people were mostly here to watch the show.There were also plenty of Islander men and women in their traditional summer garbs. All of them looked quite eager. Harvey could tell from first glance that they were either from Sky Plane or had the right to enter Grand City due to being at the top of the social pyramid in the Island Nation. All of them were filled with anger and resentment after Harvey chided them as weaklings. They were here to try and reclaim their dignity.When Harvey appeared, all of them instantly turned around. The anger within their eyes is apparent."Harvey York! Are you sure you want to go your own way? You're quite brave to challenge the entire Island Natio
"Dominating the Veiled Sanctuary?" Harvey asked Alexei curiously.Alexei scoffed. "Many years ago, a prodigy was born in the Veiled Sanctuary. He was said to be just a servant born into a small family. However, his powers grew exponentially after he accidentally learned martial arts."He became a King of Arms when he was 18, and then a True Warrior at 22. After that, he secretly stole the martial arts techniques from all the schools and mastered them. Finally, when he was 30 years old, he created his own martial art technique that had never appeared in the Veiled Sanctuary—the Technique of Elephants and Dragons."It's said that those trained in this technique can possess the power of ten elephants and ten dragons. They can forcefully tear apart space itself and step into the void, reaching unity between Man and Nature. Unfortunately, he has too little influence in Veiled Sanctuary. He stole too many secrets from the different schools, causing him to offend the higher-ups."In the
"Of course, only people from Grand City are supporting him. Whether it was Sky Plane, Sky Garden, Lost City, or the other locations, everyone criticized Harvey. They believed that we should have peace with all the other Sacred Lands. Harvey's existence would only cause fights between all of us."But the so-called peace from these Sacred Lands were only maintained because they were able to benefit from Grand City. Once Harvey's here and becomes mayor, the other Sacred Lands won't be able to get used to it," Geoffrey said.He was obviously quite pleased with this.For a long time, Grand City needed someone who could take control of the big picture. One of the reasons the E-A Battlefield occurred in the past was because the mayor went missing, and all the other Sacred Lands believed they could take advantage of this situation. That was why the five nations had worked together at the time.Luckily, the Chief Instructor was there at the time. He helped them defeat all their enemies and
When Harvey remembered that Vaida was schizophrenic, he suppressed the discomfort inside of him and smiled. "Ms. Vaida, why didn't you go back to rest? Isn't it boring to be at my place?"Vaida opened the door leading to the dining room. "I don't feel bored at all. I've been cooking for you the entire day. Since you're the man of my destiny, I'm simply doing what I'm supposed to, aren't I?"Cough!Harvey couldn't stop himself from coughing before saying, "Thanks, then.""That won't do, Senior Vaida! We grew up together and have known each other for almost two decades. You've never cooked for me. What's this, then? Do I really have no place in your heart?" Alexei said, almost to the point of crying and rolling on the ground.Vaida shot him a disappointed look. "Oh, you! Look at yourself. Are you acting like a man? I'm not expecting you to become an important person, but even if you're set on being someone spoiled rotten, can you at least be like a proper one? I heard that when I
With just a simple move, the Islander swordsman screamed in pain and crashed to the ground. He didn't even have the chance to spar with Harvey.An Islander wrestler immediately rushed out of the crowd. "I dare you to try me, Harvey!" Harvey calmly kicked a chair at the wrestler, who didn't even manage to enter the door before collapsing on the ground."Fool!""Die!"One by one, the Island Nation's elites attacked, but none of them could pass through the entrance into the training hall before collapsing.Harvey's technique was indeed very terrifying. What Harvey did without exerting much effort turned all the Islanders' excitement into despair. All the Islanders that had collapsed had some reputation in Grand City. But now, they were nothing before Harvey.Meanwhile, those from Country H were overjoyed. Many of them started to go around and spread the good news throughout Grand City.Harvey's reputation had spread in Grand City. A lot of people knew that the representative of
"All you Islanders are always acting so arrogantly in our territory. You'll sneer at us, calling us weaklings every now and then. Now, we simply stated the fact that you're weaklings too—and you find it hard to accept? Don't you understand that you should treat others how you like to be treated? If you're not weaklings before him, what are you then? Feces?"Hale shouted at the Islanders fearlessly, feeling refreshed as he did it. He seemed to have suffered a lot at the hands of Sky Plane, so he didn't hold back when he started his speech. It was enough to make the Islanders hear it go mad.However, Hale wasn't scared at all. Instead, he pointed at the Islanders and went on, "Yapping of sore losers."The Islander with the mustache almost went crazy. "Do you know what you're doing? You're trying to start a war! Can you bear this responsibility?"The other Islanders also joined in; all of them called for war, as if that would be enough to threaten Harvey. However, Hale didn't even b
Harvey couldn't tell what Hale was up to by borrowing his influence, but he knew very well that what he needed to do right now was to liven Grand City up. It would be best if he could cause a wave. Only then would he have the opportunity to achieve his goals.That was why he didn't stop Hale, despite not knowing what Hale was up to. Instead, Harvey let Hale do as he wanted.Hale took a deep breath. His eyes carried a meaningful gaze as he looked at Harvey, and he said with a dry smile, "What I'm going to do is to be quite intense, but I believe you can take it."Harvey chuckled. "Is it the kind that I prefer?""I don't know if you'll like it, but I believe you won't hate it," Hale said.Harvey clapped. "Sure. Let me see just how much of a ruckus your method that I won't hate will cause in Grand City!"Hale didn't waste his breath and grabbed a white piece of cloth and started painting something. Then, he immediately put it at the entrance of the training hall. As soon as the clot
There was cheer from the crowd when they saw how Harvey could easily defeat those from the Sky Plane and win back the pride of Grand City and the people from Country H.At this time, a middle-aged man, somewhat short and plump, approached Harvey with admiration on his face. "The way you fight is brilliant, friend. Most importantly, you managed to defeat the haughty Islanders without any trouble. Simply brilliant! You've won all our admiration!""That's right!" The people in the crowd all nodded, the admiration on their faces clear.It was said that amateurs watch the show for excitement, while the experts grasp the details. However, the people who formed the crowd this time were mostly martial arts elites. They understood just how powerful Harvey was from how he easily defeated Kuro, Mikan, and the other Islanders."It doesn't matter whether I earn your admiration or not," Harvey said with a faint smile as he entered the training hall. "Since you're not my training hall's student
