“There are about a hundred students here in the Martial Hall.“Teachers used not to have time for the students…“That was why we hired ten instructors to teach them.“Every instructor is an expert martial artist from a well-known family.“They are in charge of ten students each. They also do a pretty good job.“There’s no need for you to manage the Martial Hall after you take over.“With these instructors here, all you need to do is collect the money.Dillon Lee showed a pleasing look on his face.“You might not know since you haven’t seen the ledger, Sir York.“It wouldn’t be hard for the Martial Hall to earn fifteen million dollars annually.”Harvey was surprised.“You can get this much money just by teaching?”Dillon showed a proud expression.“Well, of course. The branch leader of Longmen’s Flutwell branch is teaching here. Training in this place is the same as being Longmen’s outer disciple. Anyone will look good when they enroll here.“Many wealthy heirs were willin
“Everyone! Let me have a few minutes of your time!Dillon Lee stepped forward and clapped his hands.“Please, quiet down.The instructors completely ignored Dillon and continued indulging the wealthy heirs.Some were even talking about tutoring the wealthy heirs in their homes, while others promised to be their bodyguards.The sight was just embarrassing.Dillon let out a cough.“Please, quiet down. Let me introduce all of you to someone…”“What’s the point?!”The only person not pampering the wealthy heirs was a woman with an angular face, completely surrounded by more people sitting in the middle.She had an extremely slender figure with a face as beautiful as a painting, but a bossy expression was clearly showing, making it hard for people to approach her.She glared at Dillon coldly and exclaimed, “Don’t you see that everyone’s trying to get closer to the students here?!“Why are you interrupting them?!“Didn’t I tell you that you have no say here?!“Or are you saying
Harvey York showed a profound look when he glanced at Dillon Lee.“Are you actually this inferior in the Martial Hall?”Dillon felt extremely awkward. He did not know how to reply at that moment.“Enough yapping!Layne Naiswell stared at the clock on the wall with an annoyed look.“Clean up the arena already! Remember to wipe down the equipment as well!“Class is about to start!“Are you doing it or not?! Get out of here if you’re not!”The other instructors were showing playful looks. Obviously, they would be more than willing to trample on Dillon.After all, even though they were from so-called sacred martial art training grounds, they were only outer disciples.They had no place in front of the wealthy heirs.That was why they wanted to step on someone like Dillon to show off their status.“You’re crossing the line!”Dillon could not hold back his feelings any longer. With his support standing beside him, he was planning to lash out…But at the crucial moment, Harvey w
Layne Naiswell was showing a fierce look at this moment.Though, she still looked gorgeous. She was being really harsh, but her exquisite face would make anyone want to do anything she commanded.Dillon Lee did not consider it that way at all. He was utterly insulted. He wanted to explain the situation, but he would not even dare.“What? A lackey like him isn’t sweeping the floor?”“He’s probably trying to steal some of our lessons! We were already being nice enough not to expose him…”“And yet he’s pretending to be some model when he’s supposed to sweep the floor!”“Who does he think he is?”“Does he not know that sweeping the floor comes before any lesson?”“What right does he have to learn if he can’t even do something as simple as that?”“Dillon too! He calls himself the top disciple of Longmen’s Flutwell branch, yet he can’t even teach someone how to sweep! No wonder Branch Leader Lee hired us for such a high price!”The students who changed into their clothes were also
“What?!”The crowd went dead silent.All the students were completely shocked.Even Layne Naiswell and the other instructors were in utter disbelief.Harvey York looked just like someone from the movies, casually sticking a broom into the ground just like that.What a dashing move.The students were only amateurs. They were only watching the show at this point…But the instructors were experienced. They could tell that Harvey was also the same.Many people could stick a broom to the ground, but it would be hard to control where it would land, as Harvey did precisely.Even Branch Leader Lee himself would not be able to do something like this.Harvey calmly looked at Layne before showing a faint smile.“Do you still think I’m here to steal your lessons?”“What’s the meaning of this?”Layne’s face darkened instantly. She felt her pride being trampled on…But even so, she still spoke with a horrible expression on her face.“Let me tell you something! Martial arts is all abou
Everyone showed odd looks as they stared at Harvey York.They were all curious about the new owner of the Martial Hall.Obviously, nobody knew if he had the strength to take control of the Budokan.After all, the instructors were quite hard to deal with.Harvey curiously looked around him. He could tell that the people here were harboring ulterior motives, but he could not be bothered.“Sir York, this is Instructor Naiswell, Instructor Lee, Instructor Jackson…Dillon Lee passionately introduced everyone to Harvey.“These instructors are veterans and elites of the Martial Hall. My teacher spent a lot of effort recruiting them here.”“Hello. I’m Harvey.Harvey politely greeted everyone.“Let’s work together.”As soon as Harvey was done talking, a strong and muscular man let out a cold scoff.“Why should we even work with you?“Without us, this place will be closed down in two months!”The other instructors coldly chuckled after hearing the burly man’s words. Harvey meant no
Harvey York did not mind the absurd demands, though.“Is there more?”“Of course there is!“You’re just an outsider, so you have no say in the management here!“Who we recruit and how we recruit them are all up to us!“You just come here every year to collect your dividends!“Well? Do you accept?”Dillon Lee was utterly shocked. He never expected the instructor would be this outrageous.The Martial Hall would basically be for rent if Harvey did as the instructors asked! All he could earn was just a little bit of rent money!His authority and management rights would be thrown out the window!“If you accept, we’ll keep working here!“If you don’t, we’ll quit and establish another Budokan on the opposite street!” said Layne Naiswell calmly.“We’ll give you one day! Give us your answer after that!“Now, get out of here already! Stop disrupting my class!“You won’t be able to take responsibility for this!”Harvey showed a faint smile after seeing Layne and the others banding
“Do you want my answer now?Harvey York showed a faint smile while crossing his arms.“You don’t know your place, do you?“Don’t you get it?“All you people didn’t bring up the Martial Hall! It’s the other way around!“Without you, the Martial Hall will still be one of the best Budokans in Flutwell!“And without the Martial Hall, you so-called instructors are no different than conmen!“You don’t even have morals! You talk about money every time you get a chance! All you do is pamper the wealthy heirs!“Where’s your heart for martial arts in the first place?“Go and become someone else’s private tutor if you want!“But don’t you dare try to fool the students who are actually trying to learn something here!“There’s nothing to fear if you people have nothing to hide!“Look at the students! They seem like promising talents, but look what you did to every single one of them!“They’re only good for showing off at this point!“Are you trying to tell me that you’re teaching them
