“Simply put, Holland Lee owes Wilbur Lee a favor!“Besides, Holland had been mooching off of Wilbur and owed him a lot of money.“Surely, he’ll have to pay the price if needed.“For example, a mass poisoning.”Harvey York put on a frown.“Are your sources trustworthy?“Are you sure that a small fry like Wilbur was the one who orchestrated such a big incident?“This looks like something Joseph Bauer or Clyde Osborne would do.”“That I can’t quite figure out.Kayden Balmer showed a helpless look.“You should know I met all kinds of people after fighting my way through Flutwell’s underworld…“But they aren’t people with immense authority either. All the information I can get is mostly kept under the table.“You’d need George Zabel to help you if you want more.”“He won’t be able to do much. If someone’s willing to use such a heinous trick against me, they’ll surely have safeguards against us,” replied Harvey.“Even if I ask George for help, he’d only be able to find out what
It was obvious Wilbur Lee managed to cling to someone more powerful.That was why he became a lot more arrogant when he spoke compared to before.“What a disgrace!“Our mighty Branch Leader Lee spent decades building the Martial Hall’s reputation!“And then you took down your own sign as soon as the place was handed to you!“What? People found out that you don’t know martial arts? Do you think you can change your luck after changing the sign?“How naive can you get?!”The people around Wilbur were laughing out loud, as if they were looking at a clown in front of them.“Wilbur, right? Was the lesson from last time not enough for you?Harvey York merely shrugged.“You want me to teach you a lesson you won’t forget?“How b*tchy can you get?Harvey disdainfully glared at Wilbur’s longsword before heaving a sigh.“I was wondering why you have no self-awareness at all…“You’re just a sellout, after all!“You just cling to whoever’s powerful enough to support you!“It doesn’t
Obviously, the experts were the previous instructors of the Martial Hall who came from sacred martial art training grounds.Those people were showing proud looks on their faces as they glared at Harvey York.Harvey squinted after seeing those people. He could tell that they were up to no good.At the same time, Harvey was sure that Wilbur Lee was just another pawn and that someone else was behind him.It was not that Harvey looked down on Wilbur. It would be out of the ordinary if someone with Wilbur’s status could get Layne Naiswell and the others to come here.Wilbur disdainfully looked at Harvey before jumping onto the hood of his car with a microphone in hand.“Everyone! You’re all familiar with Instructor Naiswell here! She was Martial Hall’s lead instructor!“The other nine instructors were also founders of the place!“Not only are they extremely knowledgeable and skilled, but they are also very considerate and passionate about martial arts!“They disagreed with the Mart
“You’re right,” said Harvey York without giving a straight answer.“Your gimmick isn’t bad, but it’s just scare tactics at most.“You’re probably planning to take money in other ways, like clothing, meal, and tutor fees at this point.“Or maybe the ten-cent enrollment needs to be drawn as a prize?“Do you think we’re all idiots or something?”The excited people froze instantly after hearing Harvey’s words. They immediately stopped themselves in their tracks.‘He’s right!’‘If Wilbur Lee decides to play small tricks like this, everyone’ll be fooled into it!’‘Does he think we’re all idiots?!’“Don’t worry!Wilbur was boiling in anger after seeing his well-laid plan about to be foiled.“I’ll accept any amount of students to enroll here! Food and uniforms are also on the house!“We won’t play any tricks on our students after the ten-cent payment!“After all, we’re doing this for the people!”The people had riled up once again after hearing Wilbur’s words.In just a moment,
“Of course not.Harvey York cracked a smile.“I was worried that the Martial Hall would be completely empty…“But, I think the place is about to become famous when someone’s advertising for us that well.”Dillon Lee and Kayden Balmer froze.“What do you mean?“They’re the ones enrolling people for a dime.“They’re even giving out free food and robes!“They’re burning their money just to get rid of us!”“Since they want to spend this much money, we’ll just help them spend even more!“Come. You should upload a few clips to Durin. Advertise the clips well so the People’s Budokan gets known.“You send the clips to every major television and radio media. Call up the news platform as well.“Tell them that everyone can claim free robes and food here!“Tell them that the owner’s also a gracious man, and he’s able to sustain his business with just a dime per enrollment…“I do want to see how much money Wilbur can burn from his support!”A dime to enroll in the People’s Budokan wh
Kayden Balmer and the others felt extremely anxious, but they immediately calmed down after seeing the sight.They were all playfully looking at the instructors working.Kayden called a few of his friends from the underworld, telling them not to miss out on such an offer.He was also planning to pay for them.Harvey York occasionally grabbed the microphone as well.“Let’s go, Instructor Naiswell!“As expected from a disciple of a sacred martial arts training ground!“Way to keep your promise! Good job!”The crowd was getting exhilarated after hearing those words. Even the people who did not intend to learn martial arts wanted to take advantage of the situation.After all, this was such an excellent opportunity to learn something from the Golden Palace.Layne Naiswell and the others were getting extremely anxious when more and more people came by.Not just actually teaching; they were already exhausted when simply answering questions the students had.They were also starting
Not only was Wilbur Lee having a major crisis about the situation, but Layne Naiswell and the others were also getting terribly anxious.They knew their reputation would be ruined if they did not immediately rectify the situation.After all, in a place of martial arts like Flutwell, disappointing others after giving them hope would cause a disaster.Wilbur had no choice but to call for more takeouts while getting Layne and the others actually to teach something to calm everyone down.If not, everything they did that day would turn into one big joke.At this moment, a dozen people who looked like bodyguards showed up and pushed the crowd aside.A pallid young man with luxurious items covering his entire body walked over. The man would occasionally cough when he came.“Instructor Naiswell, my name is Aldo John. I visited the Martial Hall a few times while you were the lead instructor. I wanted you to teach me.“I know that you were born from the Golden Palace! You are truly a top
Layne Naiswell frowned. She knew she had no choice but to stay for the time being.She took a deep breath and calmed herself down before she looked around her.“Young Master John’s situation is quite peculiar, everyone. I might use all my energy just to treat him. We’ll have to end it here today!“I hope that all of you can understand!”There were people about to cause an uproar before Aldo John waved his hand. His bodyguards then revealed a briefcase filled with cash.“Please, everyone!”Between the towering bodyguards and the money, everyone knew exactly how to choose.Layne showed an odd look before making a gesture to invite Aldo inside.Aldo sat down in front of Layne before she put her tender fingers on his wrist. Her frown was quite apparent at this moment.After a long while, she heaved a long sigh.“Your body’s naturally weak, but you forced yourself to learn the Rising Heat Fist, causing your body to lose energy and blood for long periods of time…“That’s why you’v
