“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
“Longmen’s about to lose this!”“Harvey York was talking big before! Why doesn’t he just fight the first battle himself?!”“The first fight will decide the rest of the team’s morale! He’s probably not that confident in himself!”Gossip could be heard throughout the place when Philip Steele and Camilo Myers walked to the center of the ring.People were debating who would win the first fight…The crowd was dead silent when the host declared the fight to commence.Camilo showed a faint smile before he wore a pair of silk gloves.He then calmly hooked his finger toward Philip.A simple movement was enough to show Camilo’s extreme confidence.Bryce Kennedy and the others frowned when they saw the sight.They could tell that Camilo was a formidable opponent.“Let me introduce everyone…”Axel Garcia stood up and smiled at the people around him.“Camilo came from India’s Celestial Temple. He had been training since he was seven! When he was seventeen, he was already a King of Arms
Many people from Country H went speechless after seeing the sight.They knew Philip Steele was one of the three young talents from Longmen’s Eight Inner and Outer Halls.He was one of the strongest people to participate in the fight…And yet he was at a disadvantage after the very first move! Longmen also had high hopes for him!The people just could not accept that fact.Even Fisher Benett and Damian Steele could not help but feel slightly anxious.While sitting in the eastern resting area, Rachel Hardy frowned when she saw the sight.“Looks like Camilo Myers is pretty impressive, Sir York.“Silk Boxing looks a little intimidating too.“Aren’t you afraid of Philip losing?”“It’s pretty impressive for young people to invent their own martial arts!“Camilo’s definitely one of the best in India…“But that doesn’t matter.“As long as I’m here, it doesn’t matter if Philip and the others win or lose.“Besides, I have nothing to worry. They’re the ones fighting in the ring.”R
Camilo Myers moved faster after being cheered on. He relentlessly threw his punch without fail.The people from Country H were frantically twitching their eyes after seeing the sight. They were extremely anxious when they saw Philip Steele being slowly forced back.Bryce Kennedy could not help but stand to watch whatever was happening inside the ring. He was afraid that this would be their very first loss…Rachel Hardy looked at Harvey York and said, “Sir York, the fight’s about to finish…“What’s going to happen next?”Harvey squinted at Philip before he cracked a faint smile.“Fighting spirit lies in the very first move…“Silk Boxing is quite something. Every single punch is faster and stronger than the previous one.“There’s no way to counter it once it’s started.“That’s why the simplest way to deal with it is to wait until an opportunity shows itself.“If Philip can see through this, Camilo will surely lose!”On the ring, Camilo threw his final consecutive punch.Right
Rachel Hardy felt a little sluggish when she saw the sight happen in the ring.“If I didn’t know that the kid only stayed with you for a week…“I would’ve thought that you were the one who taught him that,” said Rachel with admiration showing on her face.“You say that like I only know how to slap people around.Harvey York let out a chuckle.“Philip Steele was highly confident in his strength.“He also knows that this is an important fight for us.“Not only did he have to win, but he also had to win with ease.“He wasn’t half-bad.“Unless the Indians send out Danny Burton and the others, nobody else would be able to go against Philip.Harvey could not see the future, but as the Chief Instructor of the generation, he could gauge how strong everyone was with just a single gaze.There was no need to watch the entire process for him to know that the Indians had almost no chance of winning the first fight.It was not because Camilo Myers was bad. Philip was just way beyond his
"Enough. There's no point staying here. This place is cold and lifeless. Let's return to Wolsing. We can have something hot together. I also have something I want to talk with you about," Samuel said as he patted Harvey's shoulder. Then, Samuel wanted to take Harvey with him."Nah," Harvey suddenly said. "I need to send Mandy back home first. Maybe over a cup of tea with milk to warm her body and stop her from shaking. We can go out another time."Everyone was stunned after they heard what Harvey had just said. How could Harvey reject an invitation from someone important like Samuel? Just… Who was he?But before they could even recover, Neve suddenly grabbed a hand crossbow from one of her followers and pointed it toward Harvey. It was clear that she was still upset. The madness on her face was tinged by vengefulness and pain as she shouted, "I know you're more important than any of us, Mr. Samuel! I know someone like you can ignore all the laws in this world! But where's justice in
It was obvious that Lanny had no choice but to say that. Since if she did not do that, not only would she ruin the Bennett family's reputation, but the entire Grand City's reputation would also be tarnished.""Oh, right. You're called Lanny? And you're threatening me with your predecessor? Are you from White Peak by any chance?" Samuel asked curiously.Lanny gritted her teeth and replied, "That's right. I'm from White Peak, one of the Seven Families of Grand City."Samuel smirked and said, "I have dueled Ares Bennett three times, and he lost to me three times. If I wanted to, I could have slain him immediately the last time if I wanted to. That's why Ares has to call me Mr. Samuel whenever he sees me on the street and listens to me. You're just a greenhorn from White Peak… And you're pretending to be something special before me?"Samuel did not bother showing Lanny any respect. "Not to mention, everyone here has a good head on their shoulders. What really happened and what the trut
"It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Samuel!" said Lanny with a darkened expression."But just now, I heard something about fighting to the last man, and there were so many weapons being used here that were targeted against martial artists. Are you telling me there's a misunderstanding? Do I look like a fool?" Samuel gave a cold smile and waved his hand.A formless wave of energy instantly rolled against Lanny's men. Lanny and the others were shocked and used everything they could to block this attack, which took them by surprise.But it was useless.In just an instant, all the Grand City's youths did everything they could, but all of them had to take three steps back as they coughed out a mouthful of blood.Some distance away, some men with longbows and crossbows also grunted as they fell to the ground.In just a simple attack, the Forbidden Wasteland's defenses instantly crumbled.Perhaps this was what they meant by invincibility.No one from Grand City dared stand beside Harvey
The man who came wore a white robe with a cold expression. He looked around and spoke clearly, "I heard someone say my young master has committed murder. I'm here to see if any evidence and witnesses are saying so. If I find any of them are fake, I'll slay those and their families who claim so!"He said it casually, like an old man making a comment while sweeping the streets. However, everyone here could feel their heart skipping a beat.There was only silence.Even Ethan's gaze froze for a moment. That was because he sensed an aura from the old man, which was extremely close to the chief instructor.He was an elite!As for the rest of those from Grand City, they were all stunned. The old man was able to hover in the air. This could only be done when one had become one with nature! Could it be that other elites who were not from the Grand City had reached the same level?Even Lanny, who boasted that a great power supported her, could not help but watch, her expression pale and in
"You are really quite impressive, Ethan. But do you dare to go against the Ministry of Defense's orders openly? I suggest you better give your great elder a call. Or maybe wait for him to call you!" Lanny said as if she had gotten an ace in a hole."I'm worried that you'll accidentally cause a chain effect and lose everything," Ethan coldly replied as he stared at Lanny with a similar coldness in his eyes. To him, none of his leaders could compare with the importance of the chief instructor. But the problem was, he could not inform the great elder why he did this. That was why even someone resolute like Ethan could not help but frown.However, his expression quickly returned calm. "Looks like Grand City isn't as powerful. Not only can you do nothing to me, but you even have to use your favors and connections from the past to stop me. And now, I'm even more convinced that Mr. Harvey is innocent! So, my apologies, but tonight, I don't care who calls me… I'm not going to stop!"Then, E
"You have reasons?" There was fury in Lanny's eyes. "Then tell me, what reasons are they?"Ethan seemed disdainful. "With your status? You don't have the right to know what the reasons are."He did not make that up, though. Lanny really did not have the authority to know Harvey's actual status. "Alright, let's not waste our time. Tell your people to put down your weapons, raise their hands, and squat over there. All my friends here are very impatient. If both sides went into conflict and accidentally killed a few people…"Well. It's going to be categorized as a training exercise accident. We don't have to bear any responsibility for it."Ethan's words were calm, as if everything he said made total and natural sense."Ethan!" Lanny shuddered in anger. "Grand City and the Ministry of Defense have always kept a respectful distance from each other. Are you going to make Grand City your enemy just for this man over here? Have you considered the consequences and whether it was worth it?
Grand City was outside the usual system within Country H. However, the truth was that it was a place where all the Sacred Training Grounds congregated together. Whether it was Country H in its current form or when all the other dynasties ruled it, it had always been an untouchable faction.Not to mention that they were protected by the Seven Families as well as the other Sacred Training Grounds. If they decided to fight, the power Grand City could call upon could far surpass what others could have imagined.That was why Lanny believed they had a fighting chance even when they faced the legendary Sword Camp."Grand City's reputation really does precede itself. And you're really quite impressive yourself," Ethan said as he clapped his hands. "If it's someone else, they would be kneeling on the ground shuddering, right? Unfortunately, you forgot that we survived on real battlefields. We do not fear death. Besides the Chief Instructor, every soldier in this camp is a King of Arms! Even
Harvey slightly frowned. He was shocked that Ethan had arrived. He even brought 500 soldiers from the Sword Camp. Was he attempting to destroy the entire Forbidden Wasteland?The 500 soldiers immediately encircled the entire Forbidden Wasteland as Harvey calmly watched how things developed. All of them had a sword by their waist, and their right hand was at the hilt. While they had not pulled out their swords yet, they were exuding a malevolent aura around them.Harvey had trained each of them, and they had all gone to war with him in the past. When they saw that Harvey was completely unharmed, they were both filled with excitement and relief. However, because of their orders, none of them went to salute him."So, this is the famous Forbidden Wasteland of World City. It was said that the people who were imprisoned here could never leave. I wonder if the Sword Camp can leave this place in one piece?"Ethan, who was in his military uniform, jumped off from the helicopter in mid-air.
Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lanny. There was only disdain in his eyes. "You said that you're doing everything by your law… But in truth, you simply want to make things worse. Despite looking like an agent of justice right now, what is happening right now is what you wanted the most."I'm the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, which makes me the mayor of Grand City in name. Whether you want to interrogate or set me up, all of you must consider the consequences of your actions. But what if I was the one that did it first? That would give you a reason to attack me, right?"I have to admit that it indeed worked in your favor, Lanny. But it also showed me the truth about Grand City! Rules and laws that have existed since ancient times? All of them were jokes and excuses!"Blade listened to Harvey with a dark expression, as if his beliefs were challenged. Meanwhile, Lanny remained calm. She breathed deeply and gave a cold reply, "Stop wasting your breath, Ha
