Harvey York frowned before he looked over. A few beautiful women were staring back at him.The woman in front had a ponytail with simple sportswear. Even so, her makeup was still exquisite. She was the type of woman who people could not help but take a few more glances at.Harvey felt that the woman seemed a little familiar when he saw her.“You’re…”“What? Have you forgotten about me already?The woman showed an arrogant smile on her face.“It’s me, Kori John…”“Kori John?Harvey stood frozen before he let out a chuckle.“I remember now! You’re the beauty queen in our school!”He finally remembered the woman. She was in the next class during his time at university.It was said that her family was quite extraordinary. Kori came from a family of martial artists. They had never met ever since she came back to Flutwell.Harvey only knew her because she broke some equipment that cost a few thousand dollars during her internship.She even hurt herself because of it.Harvey mer
What just happened?!Harvey York was at a complete loss.He reluctantly came all the way here. This had nothing to do with Kori John!But before Harvey could even say anything, Kori immediately cut him off with a sigh.“I get it, Harvey.“My friends keep saying that you’ve been into me since university! You kept going on morning runs behind our dorm just to get my attention!“You never stopped doing it, even when it’s raining cats and dogs!Kori playfully flipped her ponytail, wafting a pleasant smell from her hair.“To be honest, I didn’t believe it before!“I know I was the best-looking and the one with the most talent in the university, but I didn’t expect someone would actually be that into me.“It’s been so many years since graduation, but you came all the way here from Buckwood just to see me!“This means that you’ve been asking around for my whereabouts!“What can I even say to you at this point?”At this moment, Kori felt good about herself.“I know you’ve complet
Naturally, Kori John was not happy with Harvey York denying his actions.It was nothing if he was only a poor sob, but he could not even admit to the fact that he did everything for her! She was deeply embarrassed because of it!How was she going to show off about it then?! She would not be able to satisfy her arrogance!Kori looked down at Harvey and scoffed coldly.“No matter how hard you try or how much you do, you still won’t have a chance to be with me!“I’m already the outer disciple of Longmen’s Flutwell branch.“And you? You’re still just a loser!“We’re from totally different worlds!“Let’s get inside, sisters.”Kori flipped her hair before strutting inside the gymnasium with her friends.Harvey felt speechless when he looked at Kori’s back. He was not sure if Kori was just overconfident or if he was just extremely unlucky.He only came to participate in the competition, but he was treated like a stalker following someone all the way here.Harvey trembled when the
“You have two hours! Sixty points will be your passing grade!“Everyone who passes will be ranked from the highest score to the lowest! Only the top one hundred will be eligible for the qualifiers!“Do not talk to each other or play with your phones during the exam! You will be disqualified if you do!“Both the examiner and the invigilator are disciples of Longmen!“The chief examiner today will be the vice branch leader of Flutwell’s Longmen branch, Fisher Benett himself!“If anyone finds out someone’s cheating, you may report that to Vice Branch Leader Benett! You’ll earn additional points once it’s been confirmed!”After hearing the middle-aged man’s words, a dozen people stood out to greet the examinees.The most striking person was a strong old man in a robe with a fierce look.That man was none other than Fisher Benett himself.A mere vice branch leader was not that impressive since Longmen’s headquarters were in Flutwell…But that identity was pretty impressive for the
“Silence! The exam’s starting!”Soon after, the papers were distributed. There were a hundred questions in total. Multiple choice questions, true or false questions, and fill-in-the-blank questions could be seen.But those questions were quite in-depth.Anyone trying to muddle their way around the test would be screwed instantly.Even Kori John and the others were frowning as soon as they saw the papers.Harvey York swiftly answered the questions without a change in his expression.The examiners seemed quite relaxed, though.Other than the fact that there were dozens of surveillance cameras, the test was just too difficult.There would be no use cheating if none of the examinees did not know how to answer the questions themselves.After going around the hall twice, the examiners started doing the test papers themselves, trying to see what score they would get.Half an hour later had already passed…Harvey was already done with the test when it was actually scheduled for two
The exam ended soon after. There was still an hour before lunchtime.Since there was an answer sheet for the examiners to refer to, they did not take a long time to mark the papers.Everyone waited almost an hour before the results came out at eleven thirty o’clock.Wilbur Lee and the other examiners were returning the papers on the podium.Everyone was anxious about their scores at this moment.Even people like Kori John were filled with anxiety. On the other hand, Harvey York remained indifferent.The people who had their papers returned early had all failed the test, proving just how difficult it was. The whole place was incredibly pressuring at that very moment.“Emma Bierstadt! Seventy-nine points! One-hundredth place!”The crowd gasped. The score was not that high, but it was high enough to participate in the qualifiers.“Abby Miller! Eighty-two points! Eighty-ninth place!”***Good scores were constantly being read out while the crowd cheered, calming everyone down qu
Wilbur Lee coldly squinted at Harvey York with his arms crossed.“You should know already, Harvey!“The Longmen Summit isn’t just for you to play around! This exam is just as important as any university entrance exam!“Not only did you cheat in the exam, but you are also suspected of stealing the answer sheet! You’re looking for your own demise here!“Vice Branch Leader Benett and the others are waiting for you in the meeting room!“Go and apologize for this already! You’ll end up horribly if you don’t!“Maybe Vice Branch Leader Benett will let you off the hook if you have an acceptable attitude!“But if you’re not being honest, I’ll report this to Longmen’s Law Enforcement right now!“You’ll end up worse than being thrown in jail!”Wilbur pointed outside with a prideful look on his face.“He cheated?!”Kori John and the others were shocked before they glared at Harvey disdainfully.‘You can’t just learn martial arts by cheating like this!’‘No wonder Harvey was the first
After hearing Harvey York’s words, Kori John let out a huge sigh of disappointment before showing a disdainful look.“Stop pretending already, Harvey!“How hard is it to admit to your wrongdoings?!“Do you think we don’t understand you?!“Do you think I don’t know you?!“I was your university mate! There’s no chance that you even know martial arts!”Wilbur Lee showed jealousy in his eyes after hearing that Harvey and Kori used to be university mates.He furiously glared at Harvey and screamed, “You hear that, Harvey?!“Even Kori said that you don’t know martial arts! Why are you still pretending?!“Just admit it already!“You’ll end up horribly if you don’t!”Harvey kept a straight face.“You keep insisting that I cheated and even stole the answer sheet, but where’s the proof?“You must’ve checked the surveillance cameras all over the place, right?“Did you see me bring anything inside?“If you’re claiming that I memorized the answers beforehand, then at least tell me wh
Rumble…The hammer's power was unleashed at this time, and it was hurled at the enemy before it with a surge of lightning. Harvey calmly slammed it with his palm.Bang!Every time they clash with each other, an unimaginably powerful sonic boom would occur, causing the entire plaza to be struck with catastrophe.Bang!The ninth time the hammer was struck down, Harvey's expression turned dark and he side-stepped the attack. He instantly avoided a bolt of lightning and then slammed his palm right into Raiden's chest.There was a bang, and Raiden's body trembled before he was hurled away immediately. The electricity around his hammer instantly dissipated, and he crashed into an electric pole like a ragdoll. He looked flustered. He struggled to get up and wanted to take out the Royal Flush he hid under his belt, but Harvey instantly appeared next to him and kicked him.Bang!Raiden was once again sent flying through the air, falling to the ground together with his hammer. His bo
Harvey still didn't relax and continued to make a roll.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!The assassins with the Royal Flush continued their attacks. Very quickly, all the assassins wearing their military uniform fell to the ground, dying with a peaceful look on their faces.This also proved just how powerful the Royal Flush was. That weapon could kill even the True Warriors of legends. The ordinary assassins didn't stand a chance.At this time, Harvey had already confirmed the location of the assassins using the Royal Flush. He immediately headed straight to the entrance and raised the repeating crossbows in his hand. Then, he aimed on top of a streetlight right outside the entrance and pulled the trigger.Whoosh!The masked man standing on the street light with the Royal Flush in hand couldn't react in time. He immediately let go of the Royal Flush in his hand. A dagger slid out into his hand and he immediately jumped right on top of the street light, heading straight for Harvey, the dag
The assassin who opened the door of the fridge couldn't even cry out as he felt a pang of pain in his neck before crumbling to the ground without making a sound.All the assassins were stunned. Before they could reach, Harvey's figure appeared and the knives in his hand began to dance. Blood splattered everywhere as a few more people slumped to the ground noiselessly.However, these assassins were indeed quite skilled. When they were ambushed, one of them managed to escape the room to call for help. As he did that, all the assassins scattered around the café instantly assembled in this location."Fire! Right now!"As if they knew just how powerful Harvey was, the people outside didn't care if the assassins inside were still alright. The moment they were in position, all of them raised the guns and repeating crossbows in their hand and pulled the trigger as they aimed into the kitchen.Harvey's expression was calm. He kicked on a steel trolley outward, then immediately took a step
When Jessica saw how Harvey glared at the assassins and gunners with dark eyes, her expression changed again. While she was considered part of Grand City and was also trained in martial arts, she knew she couldn't fight off so many people.She was not a King of Arms or a True Warrior. How could she stop an assault from so many sides? When the thought flashed through her mind, she held on to Harvey and said, "Harvey, if you can protect me and my family, I can tell you everything. Everything I did was ordered by Dan. Other than Dan, Emery is also part of this, and I have proof!"They have two objectives. They want you to become a permanent enemy of Sienna. They're going to even find a chance to make it look like Sienna ordered this and overtake her completely!"Harvey glared at the group and said, "I can understand why Emery wanted to overtake Sienna, since familial love is a joke in such wealthy families. But I thought Dan was courting Sienna. Why is he doing that?""Because Dan c
Jessica noticed that while Harvey was simply having a friendly chat, he had almost revealed all her activities when she was in Wolsing. She knew very clearly that once he told everything to the Wrights and the Yates, not only would they kill her, but they would also kill her entire family.Most importantly, he was able to easily deduce that Dan was behind her. That filled Jessica with horror. She was terrified by how direct Harvey was and knew everything that had happened.The last person that made Jessica feel like this…It was her employer, Dan. Just when Jessica was hesitating if she should sell Dan out, Harvey suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the corridor not far away. Several kids were running around in the corridor. It was quite noisy, especially in a quiet atmosphere like this.Many passersby simply glanced at the children and didn't give them another look. But for some reason, Harvey felt like there was something wrong. Then, he smelled something like tobacco.
"Or maybe you're thinking that after working a little bit harder for a while, you'll be able to leave the country and live under the radar. Then, you can go to Country A and live the life you want? Your parents have already been sent over, right?"No matter what happens, Dan treats those who work for him well. But… There's something I don't understand. You're willing to leave your home permanently just because he treats you well? You're willing to give him your undying loyalty just like that? Is it worth it?" Harvey asked as he put his cup of latte down on the table with a curious expression.The ordinary young woman shuddered slightly before raising her head. She gave Harvey a look and said, "Are you talking to me, sir? Do we know each other?"Harvey smiled. "We don't, but I'm pretty sure you know me. Or should I say… It's exactly because you know me that you went to Country A and persuaded Royce to come to Wolsing. Whether it's the 150 million dollars given to Lilian or lying to X
The next day…What happened to Geraldton Hotel was being reported on the news. It was about how an underground criminal empire in Wolsing was being swept by the authorities. Harvey didn't expect things to go so out of hand. At the same time, he now knew that no matter what the Yates of Country A wanted to do, they wouldn't be able to make any moves in the short term after what happened.There was another rumor that Kyros alone had borne the brunt of the crimes for the Wright family. The Wrights of Wolsing had removed his name from the family and that was enough to settle things. They were also not part of the media report.It was easy for one to see that a compromise had been reached by all the factions involved. Otherwise, if the Wrights of Wolsing really wanted to get involved, no one could estimate how this would develop.Just as Harvey was reading the news, his phone buzzed. Yvonne's stern voice came from the other side. "Sir, I've managed to investigate everything clearly.
Just as Harvey was thinking about who was behind this, his phone suddenly started to buzz. He picked it up—there was only one message."Interesting," Harvey said with a deep smile as he read it. "It's George. After his investigation, the one leading the task force has a really clean background. However, when he was at university, he was fully sponsored by a charity fund belonging to the Jeans of Mordu."After his graduation, the speed he gets promoted is also much faster than his peers around the same age. No matter how I looked at it, someone had been giving him a boost. However, is this the result of Mandy going over to Purdue Mountain? It doesn't look like Zayden, as the patriarch of one of the top ten families, wants to calm things down…"Feels like he wants to make things even worse. How is this going to benefit the Jeans of Mordu?"Yvonne narrowed her eyes slightly. "At the very least," she said, "there are two ways they can benefit from this. Firstly, it's to clarify their
The next day.The estate in the third ring of Wolsing.Harvey had originally planned to go to Mordu at night when Mandy called him. She told him everything that happened in Geraldton Hotel had been settled. Zayden's side would make a move and demand a direct explanation from them for what happened.Harvey was quite shocked when he heard this.The leader of the Jeans of Mordu had been too discreet, so much so that this was the first time he heard about this name. But the problem was, Harvey didn't believe that the Jeans of Mordu who had been making things difficult for Mandy all this while would suddenly make a move without cause.However, Mandy kept on telling Harvey that everything was over. She would keep Xynthia in Mordu for a few more days. Once the dust had settled, she would then send Xynthia back to Wolsing.Hearing Mandy so confident with herself, Harvey decided not to say anything else. That being said, he still her Mandy that if anything happened, she must tell him imme
