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
Simply put, Amber Levine’s heavenly aura was seeping out even when she was only standing still. People would mistake her for an actual fairy in this case.Kenna Park was a beautiful and confident woman, but she was missing a certain aura. Compared to Amber, she was just an ugly duckling at that moment.A cold expression could be seen on Kenna’s face.She squinted at Amber before she said, “You better admit defeat right now, kid.“I’m a master of the Thousand Hands. I specialize in hidden weapons!“I wouldn’t be able to control my own power!“If I kill you by accident, you better not haunt me after.”Kenna showed a playful look on her face.Naturally, the Indians had no intention of going easy after seeing Camilo Myers’ loss.Kenna was planning to go all out. It would not matter to her even if someone were to die from that.After hearing her words, the rest of the Indians regained their confidence.After all, they knew exactly how terrifying Kenna’s Thousand Hands were.It w
The needles completely swarmed Amber Levine like a puddle of blood.At the same time, a shriek could be heard from the swarming needles.Both the speed and the sound were extremely terrifying.The crowd was utterly shocked when they saw the sight.No wonder Kenna Park was so confident. The move alone was completely on another level!That said, Amber was still quietly observing the needles flying toward her.Kenna froze for a moment before she coldly chuckled.“Did you realize how inferior you are compared to me? Is that why you’re just going to sit there and die?“Smart move! You’ll die a clean death as long as you don’t resist!”Damian Steele was panicking as well.“Do something, Amber! Dodge the attack if you can!” he exclaimed instinctively.Rachel Hardy frowned.“What’s Amber trying to do, Sir York? She’ll lose if she gets hit by those needles!“Doesn’t she know how to counter that move?”Harvey frowned. He also could not fathom what Amber was doing.Right when the c
Kenna Park was on the verge of coughing out blood. She wanted to cry so badly at this moment.Since she was a child, she had always treated herself as an unprecedented genius of hidden weapons the world had never seen before. She truly believed that her skills were unparalleled…But after meeting Amber Levine, she knew what it meant to make a fool out of herself in front of a true expert.Amber did not even need to pull out her best moves. All she did was copy her opponent to beat Kenna. Kenna was utterly embarrassed by the fight.Axel Garcia, who was being extremely confident, crushed the teacup in his hand to dust with a horrible expression on his face.“I could’ve pierced your head with that needle.”Amber showed a warm smile before walking out of the ring.Kenna’s face had lost all color.She knew that Amber was not merely joking.If Amber wanted to, she could have killed Kenna with ease.She could not afford to be stubborn when the opponent spared her life.Besides, the
After seeing Niko Burton’s back, Axel Garcia showed a stern look on his face.“India’s reputation is in your hands now, Niko! Give it all you’ve got! We cannot afford to lose this!”“Don’t worry, Master Garcia! I will not dishonor our name!” replied Niko with a cold tone.Then, he walked to the center of the ring before coldly glaring at Harvey York and the others.“I’ll handle this one!”Even before Harvey could say anything, Albus Robbins showed a faint smile before he took off his shirt, revealing his bronze skin as he stepped into the ring.He then squinted at Niko.“Since you’re also a brute-force learner…“I won’t go too hard on you.“I’ll let you throw three punches at me for free! If I even take a step back, you win!”‘What the f*ck?!The host was flabbergasted.‘What’s wrong with this kid?!‘Why would you start running your mouth even before I explain the rules?!‘You’re letting your opponent throw three punches at you?‘How much of a show-off can you be?!’Rac
“What? Did nothing happen to the kid?”“He can speak as usual! That punch clearly didn’t do anything!”“Look at the replay!”“The kid didn’t even sway one bit, let alone take a step back!”“People who didn’t know might just think that the Indian was tickling him or something!”“If that were actually the case, the Indian must be pretty useless then!”“He showed off this hard, yet this is all he can do?!”“How is he not embarrassed?! He’s so weak!”The crowd was gossiping out a storm. They were constantly throwing insults at Niko Burton without pause.Niko’s expression instantly worsened.He took a deep breath without saying a single word before throwing another punch at Albus Robbins.At this moment, he was using all of his might.He knew that the Indians could not afford to be embarrassed again.Bam!Along with the loud sound, Niko’s punch came in contact with Albus’ chest…But before he could show a prideful look on his face, his body shuddered before he was sent flying
Longmen also showed their appreciation.Bryce Kennedy, who was in charge of daily necessities, sent over a lot of elixirs along with other expensive gifts.On the one hand, this was a reward for today’s battle. On the other hand, he wished for Harvey York and the other young talents to continue crushing the Indians as usual.After all, the Indians were already trampling all over them in the first place.Not only did the higher-ups from Longmen feel extremely relieved after the fights, Longmen’s reputation had also mostly been reclaimed.They even found many ghostwriters to publicize what happened today.After a good meal, Harvey brought Amber Levine and the others to the backyard garden.While they were fighting in the ring, George Zabel, Kayden Balmer, and the others were not slacking off either.They used all their sources and a lot of money to find information about Danny Burton and the others.Harvey brought over documents of the top Indian talents and got Amber and the ot
“I wouldn’t mind sacrificing for my country if you’re my target.”Zoe Garcia showed a faint smile before gesturing, leading Harvey York into the box that had been prepared ahead of time.Harvey sat down and picked up a teacup before returning the smile.“I’m a good man, Maiden Garcia. That’s a little disrespectful, don’t you think?“The honey trap won’t work.”“Whether it’ll work or not depends on your attitude,” replied Zoe.“My attitude?”Harvey showed a playful look.“So, it won’t be easy for me to have a meal here?“This is obviously a trap for me…“So, what do you want from me exactly?“There’s no need to hold anything back. Why don’t you tell me everything instead?”Zoe heaved a sigh with a helpless expression on her face.“Don’t you realize why I brought you here?“You set me up on the very first day, breaking me off from the other Indians. They’ve been doubting and isolating me since then!“And now, after fifteen straight losses, all of them are directing their a
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
Hale's expression was one of shock.Susan was the same.Hale didn't expect Sky Plane's plan to be so vicious. They wanted the Chapter of Ascension and to use the chance to plunge Grand City into chaos.Susan was shocked about how accurate Harvey's guesswork was. If it wasn't because she knew that someone like him would never have a connection with Sky Plane, she would even think that he might have a hand in setting up the trap that looked like it was simply a string of coincidences.Otherwise, how would he have known everything in such detail?Clarion looked at Harvey with more admiration. While he looked like just an ordinary man, whether his power or perception was far beyond them.Hale slowly closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down for a long time.Then, he turned and looked at Susan and muttered, "Now that we have reached this juncture, I don't think that there should be any more secrets between you and I. Just one question. Did everything happen exactly as Mr. Harvey
"Or maybe, in your subconscious, you do realize that something isn't right. Maybe you simply feel that it's better for her not to know about some things. That way, things will be safer for her," Harvey said with a shrug. "However, the truth is that she didn't get anything from you at all until yesterday, isn't it?"Hale nodded. "You're right. I did have some doubts about her in my mind, that's why I did tell her everything except the Chapter of Ascension."Hale seemed to reminisce about something else before giving a painful smile. "And then, as time passed by, I no longer suspected her. But I'm worried that it'll get her killed, so I chose not to say anything. I believed that as long as I said nothing, we'll be able to live a peaceful life! No one expects that in the end…"Hale signed, looking hopeless when he said that.However, Susan simply smiled icily. "Stop your crocodile tears, Hale. You never trusted me, so stop saying that you love me!"Hale smiled bitterly. He didn't w
Clarion was stunned when he saw Mrs. Hoffman was still trying to argue her way out."Even the way you argue is the same as the Origin Ninjas. Seriously?" Harvey smirked. "Right, I heard that the Origin Ninjas would leave the mark of a petal on the most private spot so that it was easier for them to identify each other. You must have seen it, right, Mr. Hoffman? Of course, I believe she'd definitely say it was just a tattoo that she had while she was in her youth."Unfortunately, I believe that Grand City has plenty of records. It should be quite easy for us to find the evidence we need. That's why, Mrs. Hoffman… Is there really a need to deny it anymore now that we've reached this point?"Mrs. Hoffman shuddered a little. She didn't expect that Harvey would be able to easily see through all her disguise. Most importantly, he even knew about the most damning evidence on her. In a situation like this, continuing with the argument really was pointless."You… You…!"At the same tim
Harvey said calmly, "You smell like one of them."Whoosh!Before Harvey could finish, Mrs. Hoffman immediately pounced at him. In midair, she waved her hand and threw a string of knives.All her blades were blue in color. They looked very pretty, but if they scratched one's skin, one could easily lose their lives if they weren't sent to the hospital immediately.Clarion was shocked when he saw what was unfolding. It was obvious he didn't expect Harvey's words to help them identify Mrs. Hoffman's real identity and forced her to attack.Still, that was quite normal. Thinking back about it, Mrs. Hoffman's calmness during this whole ordeal showed that she was not a normal woman.The power she suddenly showed was within their expectation, and they could understand it too.However, this exact revelation was making things more painful for Hale. It hurt him even more than finding out that his beloved wife sold him out. Clank! Clank! Clank!Harvey pulled up a small fruit knife and thr
