Harvey York was in no rush either. He went to greet Kairi Patel before casually squinting with his arms crossed.Julian York also curiously looked ahead. Nobody knew exactly what was going through his mind.“What? You want a go with the Islanders?” Harvey asked after glancing at Julian.“Not interested. They won’t be able to take a single hit from me,” replied Julian.Harvey chuckled.Dariel Jackson had doubts when he sized up Julian, but he did not mention anything about it for Harvey’s sake.A woman in a bunny suit walked to the center of the ring at this very moment.“The sixth round will be starting now, everyone!” she said sweetly.“On Golden Sands’ side, Dragon Nine!”The lights moved toward the entrance of the ring.Soon after, a man in a vest showed up.He was about five-foot-nine with tattoos of nine fierce dragons all over him.That must have been how he acquired his nickname.Other than that, the man was wearing extremely odd-looking gloves with sparks flying ev
Swoosh!Dragon Nine knew just how impressive Matsuda Taiha was.As soon as he heard the hostess, he instantly stepped forward before throwing a fierce punch.It was clearly that he planned to strike first before anything else.After seeing such a strong start from Dragon, everyone thought this would be an insane battle.Only Matsuda remained calm. He did not even care for the small fry before him. If he really wanted to, he could have slapped Dragon to death.Harvey York lightly nodded. He did not like Matsuda at all, but his strength must have been quite extraordinary.“Dragon looks capable. Maybe you should trust him a little more, Sir York.Dariel Jackson seemed relieved after looking at Dragon’s fierce expression.“As expected from our final trump card!”Harvey smiled while silently looking at the middle of the ring.After seeing that Harvey had no interest in Dragon, Dariel shifted his gaze toward Nameless.“Nameless is quite the prominent figure, Sir York!“He’s only
Harvey York showed a faint smile before looking away.The woman was quite beautiful, but she was just not his type.“Right, Sir York. Look at the elder seated on the referee’s branch.”Dariel Jackson did not interrupt Harvey from enjoying the view. When Harvey was just about done, he finally spoke.“He’s the inner elder of the Heaven’s Gate, Brodie Vaus. He’s an expert with impeccable fighting skills…“And also Jakai Vaus’ cousin.“He came to cause trouble to Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate…“On the other hand, he must be here for you.”Then, Harvey looked at Brodie after hearing Dariel’s words.The man seemed to be in his sixties, but he still had a young face with high spirits.That said, the freckles on him were pretty obvious. Along with his slanted eyes, he seemed quite hard to get along with.The people around him were looking at him with admiration. It was clear that they respected him.Brodie was filled with disdain and hate when he locked eyes with Kairi Pate
Dragon Nine instantly fell to the ground. His entire right arm was severed, with blood splattering everywhere.His other hand held his wound while he gritted his teeth in pain.He raised his head to look at Matsuda Taiha, trying to say something when the immense pain stopped him.Gasps were heard everywhere.On the one hand, they were surprised by how strong Matsuda actually was. On the other hand, they were showing pity toward Dragon.Not only did Dragon lose the city’s trust because of this loss, he would have to live being a cripple for the rest of his life in fear of being killed by his enemies.“Leave.”Matsuda did not show any respect toward Kairi Patel and the others as he walked toward Dragon before giving him a swift kick.His body was sent flying before smashing right onto the marble table in front of Kairi and the others.The table shattered into pieces, making a huge mess. Dragon was barely breathing after coughing up a mouthful of blood.Everyone turned dead sile
“If you’ve got guts, let the Gibson family fight too!“Let us in!“We’ll rip you to shreds!”Darwin Gibson was completely enraged.Since the inner elder was there, not only was Golden Sands’ branch of Heaven’s Gate being suppressed, but the disciples were not allowed to participate either.Without Quill Gibson’s support, the Golden Sands’ branch would naturally go against Brodie Vaus.The situation was extremely dire because of this.Arlet Pagan quickly showed a cold expression as she spoke.“Are you winning because you actually have talent? Or are you just using underhanded tactics? You, of all people, should know that answer.“I thought you were a decent character, but you’re just as shameless as your father after all!“No, you’re even worse than him!“You’re filth who only knows how to play small tricks!”Nameless smiled faintly.“What’s the point of telling me all this, Ms. Pagan?“You people did things without considering the consequences. What does this have to do w
“If you people are really that impressive, then show the rest of your cards already! Win the fight!“Convince me that I lost, and I’ll even avoid you people when I see you!“But if not, I’m afraid you’ll have to do everything as I say.”Kairi Patel showed a cold expression. She was just about to lash out…But at this very moment, her secretary’s body trembled before picking up her phone.The secretary showed a horrible expression when she hung up.“This is bad, Ms. Patel!” she exclaimed bitterly.“Our remaining four experts were poisoned… They died at the same time.“We… We don’t have anyone else left to fight.”Kairi froze before she gritted her teeth with a fierce glare.“You shameless b*stard!”“Ms. Patel! You can’t just say that for no reason!“You don’t even have any proof that I did it!“Come! Let me guess! The people you hired must’ve been scared of facing Matsuda Taiha! That was why they poisoned themselves!“Oh my! I didn’t think filth in this country would rathe
The six Hermit Families weren’t able to do as they pleased, since the Braff family was involved with the government.And because of Heaven’s Gate, the Gibson family were of the same circumstance.It fell on Azrael, Golden Sands’s king of the underworld, to stand on the front lines in fighting Faceless Group and Evermore’s invasion.However, Kairi and the others requested him to stay behind. It wasn’t that Azrael was weak; if anything happened to him, they would all be done for.“I understand the situation we’re in, everyone,” Azrael said.“But right now, I have a chance to stop Faceless and Evermore’s return. I can fight for our future!“If I don’t do anything, Faceless will win. He’ll have a reason to come back.“If that happens, we’ll be in dire straits.” “I’ll handle it, then,” Kairi said, sighing. Her skills with poison were impressive. So much so, that everyone avoided her like the plague. If she used them, she would be criticized. Even so, it was much better than sen
Saul was shocked.“I know you’re capable, Harvey. I know that your subordinates are extraordinary as well, but have you considered this thoroughly?“Matsuda is one of the top ten experts among the younger generation in the Island Nations. His strength is nothing to scoff at. Not everyone can just go against him!“The Islanders are narrow-minded people. They’ll hate you if you decide to step up now.”“That’s right, Harvey,” Kairi said. “This is the underworld’s problem. You’re just a geomancy expert, so it’s not appropriate for you to take action now.”Kairi gave Harvey a look, signaling him to not waste his efforts.However, Harvey glanced calmly at Blaine.“It’s fine. There’s no need to hide anything at this point.“Since we couldn’t lure the big fish out, adding more bait would be good.”Harvey’s calm words were filled with confidence.Saul, Azrael, and the others exchanged glances before nodding. Since Harvey had already made his stance clear, there was no point for them t
When Harvey heard Mandy's agreement to his plan to close down the place, he immediately snapped his finger. A young man smaller and leaner than the Boxing Champion slowly walked out from the back.He wasn't surrounded by a malevolent aura like the Boxing Champion, and he didn't beat his chest like a drum either. He simply waved his hand around in a dull way, like he was only doing this as part of his job. When the spectators saw this, all of them booed.When some of the spectators who were hoping for a chance to turn their luck around saw this, they couldn't help but start to curse.What was the Ninth Branch doing?Why did they pull out a kid like this?Were they getting him killed?Meanwhile, Durandal and the others all glanced at each other before cackling madly. They were all from the Sacred Training Grounds, so they could see the young man was indeed someone special. But no matter how special he was, the difference in power couldn't be so easily overcome.There was only one
One hour later, Harvey once again appeared at the VIP seats. Durandal and the others had been waiting for them. When they saw Harvey appear, they grinned. "One hour is over, pretty boy. Can we start the battle now? Looking at how confident you are, maybe you should consider fighting yourself. If you're willing, I can tell the Boxing Champion to just use one arm."It was obvious that not only did Durandal want to use this chance to test Harvey's power, but he also wanted to get him killed.Harvey smiled. "There's no need for overwhelming firepower. Even your father couldn't make me fight him, let alone your underling."Durandal's eyes turned incredibly cold when he heard that. Just as the atmosphere in the VIP seats was becoming fired up, the atmosphere around the ring was also becoming more tense.They hadn't even fought yet, but both sides were already staring down at each other apprehensively. It would be quite intense once the fight really began.Very quickly, Durandal took a
Harvey ignored all of them, but simply looked at all the fighters. In the end, Harvey's eyes fell on a young man of about eighteen years old. It was obvious he had just come of age, and he had trained his body well. From his physique, Harvey could tell that his martial arts abilities were quite good too.Harvey could tell immediately that the young man probably had an extraordinary upbringing to have such power at such an age. He might be a core student who came out from a Sacred Training Ground to train.Most importantly, the other fighters either looked at Harvey warily or in envy. Only he looked at Harvey peacefully, as if everyone in this world were ordinary people.Harvey gave Maya a look, and Maya quickly introduced him. "Sir, this is a servant that a member of the Ninth Branch picked up from under the bridge. He's mute, but he's extremely loyal. When we realized he has great talent in martial arts, we decided to turn him into a fighter."Harvey narrowed his eyes. What kind
Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his
"Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th
"If you're sober, bend your knee to the ladies and apologize, or I'll kill you!" Harvey snarled.The long-haired man was arrogant, but it was obvious for all that Harvey was even more so. All the spectators were shocked. It was the first time they saw someone acting so arrogant.The long-haired man finally realized what had happened; he held his face and yelled, "You idiot! How dare you touch me?"Harvey gave him another slap. "So what if I do? Can't I afford to? Do you want me to hit you a dozen times?"The long-haired young man didn't expect Harvey to make a move despite the current circumstances, and was completely stunned. He held his completely swollen face and screamed, "How dare you touch me! Kill him! I want him ground to dust!"Clang!Just as the men and women wanted to stand and attack Harvey, Durandal put down the teacup in his hand with a clang. He waved his right hand and said, "All of you… Are you blind? Can't you see that this is Ms. Mandy Zimmer, the leader of t
"150 million isn't enough?""1.5 billion?"Everyone gasped the moment they heard what Harvey had to say. At the same time, many people turned and looked at him at the same time. Aside from shock and disbelief, they looked like they were looking at a fool.Everyone could see that Durandal had already completely decimated this underground fighting pit. The Ninth Branch had lost hundreds of millions of dollars by now. No matter how sharp Maya's tongue was, it couldn't hide the fact that they had lost a lot of money.So when Harvey took the initiative and said something like that, many simply thought it was for their pride. Everyone knew that at this time, one should surrender and not scream in defiance. The men and women around Durandal all stared at Harvey. They didn't feel scared or excited, simply scornful.Mandy wanted to say something, but after hearing Harvey, she decided to keep silent and let him take control of everything. She believed that he could help her."Madam! Sir
Maya looked horrified. She was the one organizing things for the Ninth Branch. This fighter was already the most powerful the Ninth Branch had, but she didn't expect him to act like a complete newbie.As for Durandal, he picked up his teacup and sipped it. His phone screen was showing a game. It was obvious the fight in front of him had already been decided…and he was bored. A mobile game was even a better time killer than this.In some way, this was truly a way of showing how high and mighty he was.Meanwhile, a woman wearing a coat next to Durandal looked at the fight with scorn. It was obvious that the fight in front of her wasn't that interesting.After exchanging blows, the fighter from the Ninth Branch had completely lost his advantage. The Boxing Champion spun and broke his right arm in one strike.Crack!Before he could even scream, the Boxing King swooped right in front of him, then grabbed his head before punching him with all his might.Pfft…Blood immediately came o
"It was clear that this so-called champion had won countless matches. Otherwise, the spectators wouldn't be so excited when they saw him. Some of the women roared and screamed as if they were on cloud nine. The air was full of passion and excitement, as if this champion could really defeat everyone under the sun.Mandy frowned as she looked at the scene, and said slowly, "That's the elite fighter Durandal brought here. From the way he fought, he was indeed someone who had been fighting in underground fighting rings like ours for a long time. He calls himself the Boxing Champion, and has already won five bouts today. He has won at least 75 million dollars from us.""I see… He's a money printer…" Harvey looked at him and nodded. "From the surface, he's a peak King of Arms. If he let himself go, I believe he might be able to fight against those close to True Warrior."Mandy nodded before continuing, "He's just one of the elites Durandal brought with him. Other than him, there's the K
