“What are they doing? Why are they talking while pulling each other’s clothes? Why do they have to be this close?”“Are they making some kind of trade?”“Just fight already! What’s the hold-up?!”“Do you think Harvey York’s going to win this match or what?”The crowd could not help but gossip with each other when they saw the two still talking in the ring.While the people from Country H were perplexed, the Indians looked at each other before showing prideful smiles.They knew exactly what Danny Burton was about to do.It was an underhanded tactic, but it was the best move against a patriotic man like Harvey.As for Harvey’s way to break the game, the Indians laughed at him for bringing up Zoe Garcia.Harvey tried to cause infighting with something like this already…But he still tried again anyway.‘Does he think that the mighty Indians are stupid or something?’The host walked to the edge of the ring and coldly exclaimed, “Second match! Begin!”Danny wretchedly chuckled
After seeing Harvey York was standing still without even fighting back…Danny Burton thought his plan had succeeded when he saw Harvey standing frozen stiff. At this moment, his face was showing a prideful look.Then, he sized up Harvey for a moment before he exclaimed, “He’s fine. Your top talent doesn’t have the strength…“But at least he knows that himself.“He knows that he’s no match against me. That’s why he decided not to!“Don’t blame him when he gets out of the ring later!“He’s your country’s top talent, after all!”At this point, Danny was being extremely cocky.Not only did he want Harvey dead, but he also wanted Harvey’s reputation crushed!Danny intentionally shifted his gaze toward Zoe at this moment.After seeing her faint smile, Danny felt exhilarated.Not only was he able to defeat Harvey, but he would also manage to secure the win for his country and be highly praised for it.More importantly, he’d surely have Zoe’s heart after cutting Harvey down.Fame,
The representatives of the Martial Arts Alliance and the crowd were shocked when they looked at Danny Burton.A lot of people showed satisfied looks on their faces.This was the expert they were expecting.Not only was he extremely dominant, but he also knew exactly which side he was on.More importantly, an otherwise dull game became so exciting when Danny hyped it up with his words.The crowd was going crazy when he announced that he was going to defeat Harvey with a single blow and end the meaningless fight.He looked just like the experts in the movies, only missing some background music to cheer him on.Safe to say that Danny seemed extremely powerful and handsome at this moment.Clap clap clap!“Danny! Danny!”Thunderous applause could be heard, along with countless people screaming with excitement.Even the people of Country H showed weird looks when they saw the sight.Right as the crowd was admiring Danny, Rachel Hardy gestures to Harvey York, signaling that everyt
Slap!“A top talent from India?“Are you threatening me with the Life Elixir?“And you’re telling me not to fight back?”“Who do you think you are?”Harvey York relentlessly insulted Danny Burton while constantly slapping him around. Danny’s face was utterly swollen when he kept grunting in pain.Slap!“I already told you.“Tricks like this won’t work against me.“Why won’t you just listen?“Can’t you people just have a fair fight?“Are you really that scared of me?“Just kneel if you are, then.“Why are you showing off in front of me when you’re actually this weak in the first place?“Do you think you have the right to do that?”Danny was furiously grunting when his face was completely covered in blood.He was one of India’s top talents. A genius from the Celestial Temple!He had always excelled in martial arts compared to the people the same age as him. Anyone would seem like dust in front of him!He was still showing off his dominance and strength in the ring just
“Danny Burton! You b*stard!“How can you just kneel like that?!“You’re a mighty Kshatriya!“You can’t kneel!”After seeing Danny slam his knees to the ground, Axel Garcia quickly came to his senses before furiously jumping out of his seat.The other top Indian talents were showing horrible expressions as their eyes twitched. They could not believe what was happening before their eyes.A high and mighty Kshatriya was a superior being. How could someone like that even kneel to such a lowly person?Even if they were to kneel, it would be in front of Brahmins.This was utter humiliation to India!Clyde Osborne and Rhea Osborne were utterly stunned.They could not fathom how Harvey managed to break through the situation. He did not even care about the people’s safety at all.Fisher Benett and Damian Steele heaved a long sigh of relief after seeing the sight.Bryce Kennedy showed a complex expression on his face, as if he had realized something.Sienna Wright sat up straight. A
Clyde Osborne, Rhea Osborne, Elliot John, Harold Bauer, and the others were showing horrible expressions after seeing Harvey York getting such a dramatic win.No matter how unnatural they felt, they had no other choice but to stand up and clap.Fisher Benett, Morgan Johnson, and Damian Steele were naturally in high spirits.“I do want to see if anyone else will call Harvey a traitor after two straight wins!”“Right! If that man is a traitor, then nobody in this world actually loves their country anymore!”“They’d either have motives, or they’re just outright insane! Nobody else would think that he’s a traitor!”“Country H’s top talents are invincible!”While the crowd was gossiping up a storm, Axel Garcia led the Indians and left the place with horrible expressions.There was one more match to be fought, but both sides were allowed to take a four-hour break before that.While Zoe Garcia was heading out with Axel, she could not help but do a double take.Harvey’s strength and
“He wants the company to go bankrupt?“And he’s doing it right now?” asked Harvey York.“It may seem like he’s targeting the company, but he’s actually coming straight for me instead, right?“If I don’t go, my wife will be misunderstood and blamed for the situation…“And if I do, I’ll affect the match that’s coming this afternoon. I might not reach there in time and be forced to forfeit!“Those people can do just anything for me to lose!”Rachel Hardy took a deep breath.“Sir York, we won’t let this go their way.“I’ll handle the situation so you can focus on the match.”“No need.”Harvey was showing a playful look on his face.“Since the Golden Palace is still trying to come at me…“I wouldn’t mind playing with them either.“Rachel, tell the driver we’ll have lunch at another place.”…Vroom!Half an hour later, Rachel and Harvey arrived at the Hearthstone Corporation’s office building.Since the company had been running quite well lately, along with Mandy Zimmer’s ex
Mandy Zimmer was getting worried the moment she saw Harvey York.In reality, those people were already here since morning. She only did not call Harvey so that he could focus on fighting…But he still came anyway.Mandy felt she was the one who dragged him here.She could not help but tilt her head down without a second thought.Harvey showed Mandy a warm smile so she would know not to worry before glancing back at Rachel Hardy.Rachel sent her men in front of Mandy and the other higher-ups to keep them safe.Then, Harvey calmly glanced at the people sitting on the couches.“Where’s Pedro Benett?” exclaimed Harvey coldly.“Get him over of here.”“Oh? You think you’re king just because you won a few matches in the ring?”“How dare you ask Young Master Benett to come out?”“Yeah! Young Master Benett isn’t just someone you can meet if you want to!”“Come! Throw this man out of here already! He thinks he can show off in front of the Benett family just because he won a few figh
Sverker smiled at Harvey, as if he had sensed Harvey staring at him. Then, he turned to look at Ghostface once more. "If you want me to do something about this, there won't be any problems. But remember. After this, I will lead all the operations in Grand City. The Origin Ninjas will be my subordinates."Ghostface's expression darkened a little, but he promptly replied, "That's fine. I agree on everyone's behalf.""Good. Remember your promise."After that, Sverker took another step forward. He immediately landed and stood on the hilt of one of the longswords impaled into the ground. His hands were behind him, looking like a peerless grandmaster.He proudly looked at Harvey before chuckling and asked, "You're the representative of the Country H Martial Arts Alliance, Harvey, am I correct? I heard you're the most powerful man in the alliance. But now that I get to see you in person, you look quite ordinary. Even if you're strong, you probably don't have the brain power since you walk
After giving it a few more looks, Harvey ignored the surroundings, and his gaze fell on Ghostface's figure ahead.When Ghostface had reached about a few hundred feet into the forest, he suddenly raised his hand, and a small repeating crossbow appeared in his hand. He did not even turn around and immediately pulled the trigger at where Harvey would be.Whoosh!Harvey's expression was calm. When he saw the bolts flying toward him, he simply stomped his foot on the ground. The rocks fired upward and instantly deflected all the bolts.Ghostface's expression changed once more when his attack was deflected, and he quickly retreated. Ghostface was escaping increasingly faster because it was obvious that he knew he would die a terrible death if he ended up in Harvey's hands.Harvey narrowed his eyes as he followed Ghostface without rushing. That was because Ghostface's actions were too intentional, as if he was worried that Harvey would not follow him at all. That was why, despite Harvey
Ghostface instantly slammed to the ground. He got on his knees and coughed out a mouthful of blood after a long time, and only then did he stand up with a dark expression."Gah!"When he stood up, blood was trickling from the edge of his lips. His chest was heaving visibly, and he was in a terrible state. He was critically wounded by one hit, and that alone could tell just how powerful Harvey was.Meanwhile, Harvey could not be bothered to waste his breath with Ghostface anymore. He instantly jumped out and slammed his fist once again.Whoosh!Suddenly, a few ninjas appeared from their surroundings. It was obvious they saw Ghostface was at a disadvantage. But they were kicked away by Harvey when they had just gotten close. The ninjas from the Island Nations meant nothing when faced with Harvey when he was being serious."Quick! Use the Martial Arts Weapons!" Ghostface's expression darkened once more when he saw Harvey was unstoppable and yelled out to his subordinates. Ghostface
A sharp, piercing pain immediately filled Harvey's entire being as he felt a huge needle had stabbed into his left arm. While there was no actual injury, the pain was excruciating. But the pain was not physical, it was from deep within his soul.When Ghostface saw Harvey's expression, he widened his eyes as he once again spat more fresh blood from the tip of his tongue on the doll, and the doll convulsed even harder. After that, Ghostface could only let out a cold laugh as he once again picked up the needle and this time, pinned it on the doll's chest.A shapeless pain began to spread in Harvey's being, and this time, it was heading straight to his chest.Harvey's expression changed again. Just what kind of a curse was this? How could it have had such an effect? As the needle went deeper, Harvey could start to sense the pain in his chest. He suspected that when the needle completely went into the doll, his heart would burst open.At that moment, even Harvey had to sign in admiratio
As the gigantic fireball flew straight toward Harvey, he could feel that even the humidity in the air had completely evaporated. The scent of scorching heat permeated the air. Harvey retreated again and again. With every step he took, he would kick a few pieces of rocks right at the fireball, trying to make the fireball collapse on itself.Thud! Thud! Thud!The ball of fire that was rolling toward Harvey exploded before it could get close to him in the end due to the surging of the air currents. However, all the surrounding plant life had been scorched into dust by the powerful heatwave, as if someone had detonated an explosion in the scene.Harvey's eyes narrowed when he saw what had happened. This technique had already surpassed what one would normally call martial arts. It was bordering close to fantasy. It was the first time Harvey saw a killing technique like this.And so, Harvey retreated once more and maintained a safe distance between himself and Ghostface before looking cu
Clang!The dagger instantly shattered into pieces and shot out in all directions. Some even sliced century-old trees in half. After shattering the dagger, Harvey's fist did not stop. It continued to crash forward inevitably, surrounded with aura.Ghostface's expression immediately changed, and a ghost mask instantly appeared on his face, his aura once again strengthening.Crack!But before his aura could reach his height, a crack appeared on the ghost mask, which was cut into two. With Harvey suppressing Ghostface's aura, his ace in the hole was completely useless and meaningless."Impossible…" Ghostface muttered as he could feel the cold sweat on his skin and the hairs on his arm standing up. He continuously hurled all kinds of weapons with his hands. Daggers and darts were thrown repeatedly, and his figure kept retreating backward, wanting to stop the attack with everything at his disposal.Clang!The sounds of metal being shattered rang again. His resistance was futile. In th
Whoosh!As one of the most outstanding elites among the Origin Ninjas, Ghostface had always been extremely decisive in his actions. Before he had even finished speaking with Harvey, a dagger had already appeared in his hand. His figure flickered, and the dagger went straight for Harvey.Harvey whipped his right hand out, as if he was already expecting Ghostface would ambush him, and a branch from a tree that he took parried Ghostface's dagger.Clang!As their weapons clashed with each other, a loud clang rang. Harvey's figure wavered a little bit while Ghostface's figure was flung into the air, and he landed where he started.Ghostface was shocked that Harvey could deflect his ambush with just a tree branch. With a cold smile on his face, the aura around him became even more intense. While Harvey was quite powerful, he himself was not that weak either. Those who had reached this stage had an indomitable fighting spirit.Harvey was also quite surprised when he saw Ghostface's batt
This moment caused Djinn's expression to twist in shock as he instinctively took half a step backward. The dread on his face was obvious. Who could expect that the attack he put all his might… An attack that was so terrifying did nothing at all.Before Djinn could regain his footing, the Swarm Queen's figure moved again, and the blade in her hand slashed.Djinn's figure paused as his footsteps froze, and fear spread in his eyes. That was because the Swarm Queen's blue blade had already pierced into his chest.Spurt!Fresh blood spurt out from his wound. However, the blood was not scarlet red, but a brilliant blue…"You…" Djinn's expression twisted when he saw what happened. He was not suffering… He could not even feel the pain. Then, his body slowly began to sway before crumpling on the ground. His life was slowly being drained away.Djinn seemed to remember something.He blew his final breath and said, "You… You're Belladonna Cult's Guardian… The cult's most powerful ace…"-
In Djinn's understanding, Neve was just your usual run-of-the-mill blue blood in Grand City. How did she know so much? How could she learn that they were coming and made preparations for them?Neve coldly answered, "Of course, I can't foretell what will happen. But what if someone wanted to do me a favor and told me to pay more attention? What do you think of the possibility of this person being the same person as the one who told you to come here?""Told me to come here?" Djinn's expression changed. "That damn fool Da…"Then, he suddenly realized what was happening. "You tricked me, woman?!""Tricked you?" Neve spoke with a smile. "I'm not tricking you. But, the person behind me has already foreseen everything.""The person behind you?" Djinn's eyes twitched again. "Just who is this person behind you? Is it her?""No. Sis Vaida is here just to protect me. Oh, right. Her name is the Swarm Queen."When hearing this name, Djinn's eyes grew wide. As one of the elites of Sky Plane,
