Axel Garcia was showing a deathly glare and a terrifying sense of dignity.The Indians who were there instinctively lowered their heads. They would not even dare to lock eyes with him.“Are none of you going to answer me?“Or are you saying that you’re not confident at all?“This wasn’t the case when you challenged those provincial champions,” said Axel in a deep and dry tone.“You said that Country H has nobody to compete against us, and India could crush their younger generation without our top talents doing anything.”“What? You’re giving up now?”The Indians all looked at each other before they stood up with their heads hanging low.“We’re just too weak, Master!”Axel scoffed coldly.“I don’t need you people to tell me that.“Did you not hear what I asked?“How confident are you in taking out the three young talents?!”“Not at all!” replied a man with a gloomy look.“But since this is war, we’ll fight with everything we’ve got, even if we’re no match against them! We’
After hearing Danny Burton’s words, Ryland Burlowe spoke up beside him.“Master Garcia, judging from the footage, Amber Levine and the others seem to be really knowledgeable at this point! They must be on par with a King of Arms as well…“And not just a beginner King of Arms either. They’re probably just one step away from becoming Gods of War.“The people here are exceptional. They’re in an entirely different league compared to the others of the same age, but they’re only Kings of Arms at best!“They have no chance of winning against Amber and the others!“Even if the three young talents have no experience in the outside world, their skills alone are definitely enough to make up for that!“The people here will surely lose if they go up against those three!”Zoe Garcia showed a faint smile.“Master Garcia, why force these people to embarrass themselves when they’re apparently out-skilled?” said Zoe with an apathetic tone.“What we need to show the world right now is our streng
“That said, you mentioned this to us when we were summoned!“You told us that we came to take revenge for Cody Garcia!“Not only are we trying to reclaim our fame, but we’re also going to crush the b*stard who tarnished our reputation and humiliated us!“We’ll force him to bear the shame for the rest of history!“But you haven’t even mentioned him once!“Isn’t he going to join the next fight?“I heard that he was calling us to the peak of Flutwell a week later. He claimed he was going to beat us all by himself, didn’t he?”Ryland Burlowe and Zoe Garcia were showing serious expressions on their faces after hearing about Harvey York.After all, that was the man who managed to defeat one of the Three Demon Monks.Even though people were spreading rumors, saying that Harvey won with underhanded tactics…Those three top talents knew that a win was still a win. This alone was enough to prove Harvey’s skill.Compared to Amber Levine and the others, they were more cautious toward Ha
A couple of days had swiftly gone by.Not only was Mandy Zimmer discharged from the hospital, but she was also back to work.Harvey York wanted to visit, but Lilian Yates was completely infuriated after recovering from her injuries.Harvey decided not to go after thinking that Lilian would definitely affect his mood.After telling Kayden Balmer to take care of the Hearthstone Corporation’s business, Harvey quietly waited inside the Martial Hall for his time to fight the Indians.While this was happening, Amber Levine, Philip Steele, and Albus Robbins had been asking him all sorts of questions.In their eyes, Harvey was just a rookie. They really believed they had no choice but to deal with the experts all on their own.Harvey did not say a word to clarify the misunderstanding.It would be good if the three young ones could deal with the Indians.After all, there would only be new talents if the younger generation surpassed the older ones.All of Flutwell was dead silent. It w
“Master York? I heard a lot of great things about you.”Right as Harvey York was walking to the east resting area where Country H’s fighters were, he bumped into Axel Garcia, Danny Burton, and the others.Axel showed a warm smile before he passionately reached his hand out.“I heard your name so many times in India that my ears are about to burst at this point!”“But truthfully speaking, this is still our first time meeting each other!”“You’re just like the rumors say you are. Not only are you a young and talented man, but you’re also the pillar of your entire country and Longmen’s pride!“Though there’s a saying that I’m sure you know of, ‘The bigger you are, the harder you fall!’“Your reputation precedes you, but just like the well-known generals from ancient times, you probably won’t be able to live long enough!“Ah! I shouldn’t have said that in front of you…”Axel showed a fake smile.Danny and the others sized up Harvey. They read quite a lot of documents about the ma
“Maiden Garcia, to be honest, compared to so many top talents from India, I look up to you the most!Harvey York did not even try to hide his admiration toward Zoe Garcia at that moment.“Not only did the legends say that you’re the most beautiful woman from India, but you’re also the strongest!“What an honor to finally meet you!“I have dozens of chain Budokans under my name…“Would you be interested in being one of the instructors?“Don’t worry! You can be a nominal instructor if you want!“And if you do join, I’ll also hand you thirty percent of the Budokans’ shares! I’ll pay you fifteen million dollars as your annual salary as well!“I can even guarantee that the Indians won’t be able to cause you any trouble for this!“If you give me the sign, we can share all this happiness together!“You can earn at least a hundred and fifty million a year with me! You can even have billions of dollars when the Budokans get listed on the market!”Harvey showed a sincere look, as if h
Harvey York showed an attentive look when he stared at Zoe Garcia’s back.“We can still talk about this if this isn’t enough for you, Maiden Garcia!“I’ll give you as much as you want!“If a hundred and fifty million isn’t enough, I can even give you 1.5 billion!“As long as you give me a chance, I’m willing to give you everything I have in Flutwell!”Zoe staggered as soon as she heard those words. She was panicking when she ran away…She knew that those words would make her a target for her people.Even when everyone knew that Harvey intended to cause infighting, the top talents still showed weird stares when they glared at Zoe.On the one hand, Harvey looking up to Zoe that much was the same as him belittling everyone else.Even if they actually won the battle, Zoe’s name would be known worldwide.On the other hand, the price Harvey offered was just too high.The others would definitely take the money without any hesitation.They only wondered how overwhelmed Zoe’s heart
Rachel Hardy smiled without saying a word.Harvey York was playing tricks in the face of his enemies. This was a lot different compared to underhanded tactics.If Zoe Garcia were forced into limbo because of this, then that would be her problem.She was the one who got herself into the situation anyway.When fighters from both sides arrived, a member of the Far East Martial Arts Alliance stepped on the platform and announced the rules.Since there were eighteen top talents who came from India, Longmen could also have eighteen fighters in total.That said, the participants would have to be the ones who joined the Longmen Summit.Longmen’s strongest fighters were all excluded because of this.That said, the Indians came to fight Longmen anyway. This was only natural.After assembling all fighters, three battles would be held every single day.Whoever defeated the opponent inside the ring or forced them out would be considered victorious.The winning side could choose to keep f
George briefly hesitated before continuing and said, "I also noticed something other than this. The Island Nation embassy was preparing for a wedding. From the looks of it, tonight would be the wedding."From my informants, the people getting married are Yvonne and Shingen."Geroge paused momentarily before continuing, "From what I heard, Yvonne lost her parents a long time ago, and Sheldon brought her up. However, Sheldon is still imprisoned within the Xavier of Wolsing's ancestral land. I heard that if Yvonne refuses to marry, then Sheldon will die."Only now did Harvey manage to connect the dots. For example, why did Yvonne leave without saying a word? For instance, why would Yvonne suddenly marry another man? When the thought crossed his mind, Harvey extended his right hand, slammed the table, and said, "From now on, you have the authority to use everything I have. But you must get Sheldon out before the wedding tonight."George was stunned. "Sir, please do anything rash! That'
"You!" Liza was so furious that she seemed to go berserk as she kept pouncing at Rachel. Unfortunately, Rachel had already realized that her lower half was defenseless. No matter how she attacked, Rachel would only focus on her legs.After exchanging blows, Rachel used a chance to kick Liza in the stomach. Liza let out a scream as she was immediately thrown out. When she dropped to the ground, the burst of internal energy and the drug after-effects made her twitch on the ground, and she could not get back up after some time."See? This is the price you pay for your revenge," Harvey signaled Rachel to stop as he looked at Liza and gave a sigh. "The power of martial arts comes from training for a long period. You, or should I say, the person behind this all, had the wrong understanding. They all think that you, after using the genetic drug, would be able to kill me with your increased power."Unfortunately, it was meaningless. In front of absolute power, your fake power meant absolute
"Everything was an act that you directed yourself! Your acting is so good that even I almost believed all of this!" Liza could not be bothered by Harvey's explanation as she was drowned in her own rage. "Someone like you can lie to the entire world, but you can't lie to someone as smart as us! All the other overseas Martial Arts Alliance will fight you till the end! We won't allow someone like you to have such a high position within the Alliance!"And then, Liza pulled out the one last syringe and stabbed it into herself. Then, she moved. She roared as she pounced toward Harvey's location.Bang!Charlotte instinctively stepped before Harvey, using her hands to block Liza's attack wave. However, she did not expect that after Liza had injected herself with so much drug, not only had her power increased, but her entire combat capabilities also had improved.Charlotte, who could normally crush Liza, was forced back after one single punch. She only stopped after she slid almost 30 feet
"Are you stupid, Liza?" Charlotte stepped forward, glaring coldly. "Even Dragon Cell proves Harvey's innocence; someone tried to frame him! But here, you accuse him of being the culprit without any evidence? Are you joking? Or do you think that the Martial Arts Alliance doesn't kill!"Then, Charlotte placed her right hand on the hilt of her longsword, as if she would fight if Liza refused to back off. Rachel also stepped forward, and a throwing knife appeared in her hand as she glared at Liza with icy eyes."Do you think I'll believe whatever you say?" Liza said coldly as she laid her dark eyes on Harvey. "Not only did this bastard personally kill Wilhelm, but once he's exposed, he even lets his underlings kill Donald and the others by imitating him! You left so much evidence, so you befuddled the investigation! So you can let yourself off the hook!"Liza smiled coldly. "Harvey, you can deceive others, but you can never deceive me! There are plenty of ways within the community of th
Harvey narrowed his eyes. He was pretty surprised that someone would attack him at this critical moment. Could it be that just as Jesse had mentioned… There were plenty of people who wanted him dead.Bang!But before the pickup truck could reach Harvey, a Benz SUV rammed right into its side as it rushed out from another alley. The truck was hit so hard that it lost control and swerved into a nearby tree.The driver of the Benz SUV did not stop. Instead, he pressed on the gas again, damaging the pickup truck even more. The SUV driver jumped out only when the pickup truck's fuel tank caught on fire.Harvey gave the driver a look. It was Ray.It was obvious that Ray was still as careful after so many years when he first joined Harvey. Even at this time, he still kept his cards close to himself. Otherwise, even if Harvey did not die, he would still be in so much trouble.Harvey nodded at Ray. He was going to check who was inside the pickup truck when someone kicked the windshield ope
Once all the paperwork had been completed, it was already seven at night. When Harvey left the prison, he saw many had already been waiting for him outside.In addition to Charlotte and Prince from the Country H Martial Arts Alliance, Tyson, Ray, George, and Rachel were present. From a certain perspective, they were Harvey's greatest supporters within Country H.After Harvey got into prison, they used everything in their repertoire to prove Harvey's innocence. It was something worth celebrating, and they felt fortunate now that Harvey was released.Other than Harvey's crew, Mandy was also there.She gave Harvey a smile from some distance away. The worry on her face also disappeared. Harvey gave Mandy a nod. Initially, he was going to greet her, but he saw a Toyota van parked not far away from the corner of his eye. The van's windows were all tinted black, but Harvey could sense someone familiar looking at them.He suddenly realized who was inside the van. At that moment, he stoppe
In truth, Jesse did understand Harvey somewhat. He knew from the very beginning that with Harvey's character, he would not have killed Wilhelm.The reason he threw Harvey into prison was to protect him, other than it being the Xavier family's order as well. But he did not expect something like this to happen outside.Not only Donald had died, but all the young men and women he brought back also mostly died. All of them died the same way. They could not even resist, all of them slain in one slash. It was as if the person who killed them possessed incredible power and was very familiar with them.Other than Liza, who left the residence at the time, all the people from the other three Martial Arts Alliance who came back from overseas had been killed.The information was from Wolsing's precinct. It was absolutely unbelievable to them that something like this would happen at the country's seat of power. That was why the precinct contacted Wolsing's Dragon Cell, hoping they could work to
"Or maybe you forgot who you are, Jesse. How dare you conspire with the Islanders!" When Jesse heard Harvey's words, he narrowed his eyes. Harvey's questioning was sharp and dug into his heart. However, from Harvey's angle, he was not exactly wrong.Jesse took a deep breath and said, "I'm not going to lie to you. The Xavier family as a whole has its own considerations, as well as my own personal thoughts."But you are gravely mistaken. The Xaviers aren't conspiring with the Islanders. However, we simply don't want you to go to our family and mess things up before Yvonne is married. So… Harvey, stay here."On the one hand, this is for Yvonne's own good if you really care about her. On the other hand, isn't this my way of protecting you too? You can't imagine just how many people outside want you dead…"Firstly, I can understand why because I exposed just how shameless families like you are, despite my own contempt for it." Harvey shrugged. "But I don't understand your second point.
"We meet again, Harvey. What? Do you think Dragon Cell's fried chicken is to your taste, so you came in for a stroll?"At the same time when Donald was being killed, Jesse walked into the Dragon Palace's interrogation room and watched Harvey enjoying his fried chicken meal with a hint of helplessness on his face."I didn't want to, but they got me with some concrete evidence, so I have no choice," Harvey said as he put down his fork before turning over to Jesse. "I've got a few things I want to ask you, but you're quite hard to get a hold of. But I think it should be quite easy to see you here, so I came in.""Questions for me?" Jesse asked, confused. "That's why you're here?""What else?" Harvey said with a shrug. "Oh, right. I also want to see whether Wolsing's Dragon Cell has already completely fallen and if they can still uphold their justice and prove the ingenuousness of the innocents."If you can't prove my innocence in the shortest possible time, then I believe that Dragon
