Everyone was looking at the direction where Harvey York was.Even Mandy Zimmer furrowed her eyebrows.In her eyes, Harvey always enjoyed bluffing and this trait of him simply boasting about anything wasn’t something that could be corrected in this life of his anymore.“Pfft!” Conor Ward burst out laughing out of the blue. “Ha ha ha ha… What did you just say? You can attend the entrance examination anytime you like? Who do you think you are?“I’m going to laugh till I die!“Didn’t you know about this?“There are only certain people who are qualified to participate in this entrance examination. Only the best ten soldiers of every army district have the chance to attend!“Only among these selected people can bring three family members to attend this event!“A mere live-in son-in-law and a garbage like you even wish to join?”Harvey shrugged casually, “Yeah, you were also informed that you can bring up to three family members?”“Besides, this time I’m specifically invited by some
After stating his expectation, Conor Ward left the hall arrogantly.Leaving Simon Zimmer and the rest to look at each other not knowing what to do.Lilian Yates spoke up helplessly, “The Yates family and Wards are both esteemed families with strict family traditions, they would never be able to stand people like this! It would be weird if they didn’t get mad!”Simon gave a death stare to Harvey York and bellowed, “You piece of trash, not only you can’t do anything to help us, you even ruined our plan and embarrassed us in different ways!“I wish I could kill you with a big slap!”Smack!After ending his lecture, Simon tried to slap him.Instead, Mandy Zimmer swiftly blocked the slap. If it wasn’t for her, this slap would’ve landed on Harvey’s face.“Dad, Mom, this is not something serious. After two days when uncle and aunt's rage subside we’ll apologise to them!”Mandy persuaded.“Not something serious? Because of him, we have embarrassed ourselves in front of the Yates fami
In the car, the sergeant who was driving was also from the military of South Light. At the moment, he smiled and said, “Brother Ward, you’re very lucky!“The Sword Camp rarely recruited people over the years and very few people have been able to enroll in the past three years.“I heard that Lieutenant Colonel Ethan decided to recruit more people because of Prince York’s return to Buckwood.“This time, not only you can meet Lieutenant Colonel Ethan, but it is said that he had gone to fetch Prince York himself early in the morning.“Prince York, he’s the true crownless King of our South Light army!“It’s such a great honor for you to be able to meet him!”Conor Ward was also excited at this moment.Prince York, the legendary figure in the South Light army.Although people who could achieve victory in purgatory such as the Central American battlefield weren’t the Gods of War in the army, but still they were the idols of many sergeants.“Yeah, previously I didn’t know that the leg
As for Leyton Luv, Tanya Yates, and the others, they had seen a lot since they all came from big families.However, they still trembled a little in this cut-throat place.Nonetheless, they were still very excited.This was because those who could get in and out of this place were either the best in the army or their accompanying relatives.Those relatives, some were officers, some worked in the military, some were doing business.Although they had different identities, each of those people has a powerful background. Some of them often appeared on TV and in newspapers.Such characters were remarkable. There were too many benefits in knowing a few of them.“All sergeants move forward, the rest of the family members come here!”The crowd at the scene was split into two groups. The disorderly and invincible sergeants were all asked to come forward at the moment and were queuing in line.The family members came to the spectator’s area to sit down.Leyton and Tanya were very excite
Ethan Hunt walked to the front of the crowd and said indifferently, “First of all, welcome to the Sword Camp assessment.”“Secondly, I would like to clarify one matter. Prince York is in the car.”“However, Prince York’s status is too valuable. He’s not someone ordinary people could meet with.”Everyone felt a little regretful after hearing this. The legendary Prince York was just one step away, but they were not qualified to witness his face.Even Conor Ward’s face turned pale in an instant.“However, Prince York is the legend of the Sword Camp. Without him, we wouldn’t have the prestige we have now, so…”“Prince York will meet the sergeants who participated in the assessment later on.”Ethan added.All the sergeants, including Conor, were full of enthusiasm after hearing that.They were finally able to meet the legendary figure!Prince York could run the military, the streets, and even the business market!To meet such a big shot, one must have offered high quality incense
Soon, Harvey York and Ethan Hunt stood at the forefront of the troop together.Ethan deliberately stepped back a little from where he was standing, which showed that the man in casual clothes next to him had a higher status.At this moment, Ethan smiled and said while looking at the sergeants in front of him, “Prince York, the newcomers for this time have assembled. Next, according to the Sword Camp’s rules, they will undergo special training for seven days and seven nights, thereby, selecting suitable people…”“However, this is the usual rule. Since you’re here to guide them this time, your words shall prevail.”Ethan’s words showed that the man next to him was the legendary Prince York.Harvey looked at the sergeant in front of him, smiled, and said, “I’m not a military brat. But Lieutenant Colonel Ethan invited me to guide you today. Do you have any comments?”“It’s a great honor!”The group of sergeants spoke in unison!Although Harvey was not a military brat, he was the cr
“Your aunt and uncle are in a good mood today. They said they can accept your apology, so you should prepare.” Simon Zimmer said.“Okay, then let’s invite the elders to a meal.” Harvey York said.Soon, they booked a room at the Kingdom Palace.Tanya Yates and Leyton Luv came in the evening, and Xynthia Zimmer was with them.Both Tanya and Leyton were flushed with pleasure. They looked indescribably happy as if they had won several million dollars.When they saw Simon and his wife at this moment, they were smiling very politely.“Sister, Brother-in-law, what makes you so happy? Tell us, so we can be happy for you too!” Lilian said with a smile.Tanya proudly said, “Thanks to Conor Ward, the good boy today!“Not only did we go to participate in the enlistment assessment of the Sword Camp, but we also met Lieutenant Colonel Ethan!“Most importantly, we get to see Prince York’s face!”Although it was just his profile… However, Tanya’s words were not humbug.Xynthia who was on th
“Forget it, I’m in a good mood today. I’ll just forgive you!” Tanya waved her hand and looked restless.Leyton suddenly thought of something. He then asked, “By the way, didn’t you say that you’re going to participate in the enlistment assessment of the Sword Camp today? Why didn’t we see you?!”She also thought of this when he heard Leyton’s words. She looked at Harvey cheekily.They wanted to see what else the live-in son-in-law could say.In their view, Harvey should give himself two slaps in the face right now and back down.Unexpectedly, Harvey hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth.“Truth be told, I did go today, but you aren’t qualified to see me.”The whole place fell deathly silent when he said this.Leyton and Tanya almost blew in a fit of rage!What did he mean that they weren’t qualified to see him?This live-in son-in-law certainly took their words seriously and was so narcissistic.They only stared at Harvey at this moment, wishing to kill him.S
When Clarion saw how Camellia pushed her face closer to his face, he had to use so much effort to stop himself from immediately slapping her.Harvey's expression was also getting colder as he stared at Camellia. He had to admit it. If she was willing, she could easily make many people furious. That was why Harvey calmed himself down even more and was not rushing to make his move. Instead, he calmly observed Clarion, wanting to see how he would deal with this.He believed this simple confrontation would make Clarion grow quickly. It would be a good thing if there was someone who could compete with Dan among the heirs of Grand City.Slap!When Camellia saw that Clarion would not touch her, she smiled coldly and once again slapped Clarion on the face."Pathetic! You really are useless! No wonder Dan openly admitted that someone like you is not qualified to be his right-hand man!" Camellia publicly humiliated Clarion's character and dignity.A man who would not even resist was worse
"I also know why you captured Hale. But madam… A simple thought is all it takes. If Hale had mastered the so-called Chapter of Ascension, he would already be invincible in this world. He wouldn't fall into someone's grasp so easily," said Clarion as if he was explaining Camellia for her own good."Not to mention that possessing the Chapter itself is simply going to bring you trouble. I'm also saving you by taking Hale away. I hope you'll agree to my decision. This is really for your own good."Camellia let out a cold laugh when she heard Clarion's reasoning. "Judah, aren't you a little too confident of yourself? You attacked my people, threatened me to release the man, and said this is for my own good? Since when has Parkerville stopped practicing martial arts and started to teach acting skills instead?"Camellia walked over and immediately slapped Clarion on the face. "You fool! Do you think I will act for your sake?"Slap!Clarion could not help but take a few steps back, his fa
"Clarion, you've always been a good boy. You can always read the atmosphere whenever you do something," Camellia said to Clarion with a sweet smile. "The reason you came to my Platinum Casino must be because you're ready to pass your position in Earth Hall back to my son, correct? If that's the case, I don't mind accepting it. But if it's something else, my apologies then. I don't have the strength to care about anything else now that I'm too worried about my son."Zeon gave Clarion a dry smile. "You do understand what she's talking about, right? Now, quickly give us the power over Earth Hall. That way, we have some room for discussion. Otherwise…"Then, Zeon put something thumb-sized on the coffee table. Quite a few people raised their eyebrows when they saw what it was. It was the Martial Art Weapon, Thunderblast!That bastard really was quite crazy. He did not even prepare any precaution when handling something like the Thunderblast, walking around with it so recklessly. Was he n
Before Clarion could even decide, Neve already forced her way forward and shielded Clarion behind her. She yelled at Zeon, "Stop pushing it, Zeon! Enough is enough! Do you really think you can have your way with us?!"Zeon gave a wicked smile and wanted to say something when Camellia, who had been watching things unfold, clapped her hands. She instantly attracted everyone's attention, and her delicate voice rang. "Zeon, that's enough. Clarion is still a member of Grand City, regardless of what had happened. We've raised him for so long, he wouldn't kneel and grovel before another man just because he was being waved at, right?"Trust him. He won't be such a doormat, will he? Not to mention that if you let him lick your shoe, he's going to ruin it. This is something I bought for you from Givenchy, so stop wasting it. Not to mention, if Mr. Otto finds out about this, what would you do if he fainted? You have to pay some respect to our elders, alright?"Then, Camellia gave Clarion a dee
"Now… Do you think I won't have the guts to kill you?" Zeon then spun the pistol in his hand using his finger and then pointed it at Clarion's forehead again. He thought he looked cool doing that.Then, his finger slowly tightened around the trigger, and the spring in the trigger was pulled tight, ready to fire. Even Clarion, who fancied himself as someone who did not fear death, could feel his breathing becoming rapid.It was obvious that Zeon really wanted to kill Clarion as his murderous intention flared.While it was well known that White Peak was filled with all kinds of madmen, they did not expect Zeon to be so terrifying when he lost his mind!Neve already wanted to step forward to stop it, but the muzzle on her head made her scared of making any sudden moves. Meanwhile, Harvey simply looked at what was happening calmly.Now was not the time to make a move. Others might believe that Zeon would really pull the trigger, but Harvey understood much about these heirs who were al
Clarion cleared his throat as he caught everyone's attention before bowing at Camellia. "Hello, madam. Please forgive me for dropping by unannounced."Before Camellia could even say anything, Zeon already smiled coldly at him. He stood up and walked over to Clarion and patted Clarion's face as he said in an icy tone, "And you do realize you're not invited? If you want to apologize, show us your sincerity. You can start with prostrating. I believe the madam won't put too much blame on you."All the men and women sneeringly looked at Clarion. It would be rare to see the heir from a huge family in Grand City prostrate. Quite a few already instinctively pulled out their phone, wanting to take photos of it.When Neve saw what had happened, she frowned. "Are you an idiot, Zeon? Why do you think Clarion will kneel?""He won't?" Zeon scoffed, pulled out a pistol, and immediately put the muzzle on Clarion's head. "Now, will you kneel?"Clarion was also someone with a temper. He glared at Z
Harvey stood behind Clarion as he looked at all these men and women in their luxurious outfits. Other than the heirs of the large families from Grand City, Harvey could not really tell how powerful they were. Harvey even noticed quite a few mutant elites from Country A. All of them gathered together and all the topics they discussed about were extremely sophisticated, making them feel that they were the most important individuals in this world.Other than these people, she saw a woman wearing purple traditional garb in the middle of the group. She could not tell the woman's age, but her figure was slender and curvaceous. She carried an esteemed imposition. Or perhaps, it was better to describe her imposition as queen-like.She held an exquisite hookah in her hand that was made from gold. She would sometimes take a puff before blowing out a stream of smoke, as if she were some kind of empress.Quite a few men would glance at her before averting their eyes, as if they were too afraid
Every word Clarion heard from Jade made his expression turn even darker. When she finished, Clarion almost wanted to stomp on the woman even as he suppressed his anger. Just when Clarion was going to slap Jade in the face as she deserved, Neve stopped him.Neve then took a golden card from her Hermes handbag and gave it to Jade. "I have a member card. This is the card your madam gave to me when the Platinum Casino was first established. I believe you will accept this."Neve never paid much attention to the card when she first received it and simply kept it in her handbag. She did not expect it to have some use today. "This is one out of the fifty member cards the casino gave out at the beginning. I was told it gives me the highest privilege. You won't deny this, will you?"While Neve was smiling, her words were cold and harsh. "If you won't, then I can assume the Platinum Casino has a problem with the Fosters of the Universal Sect. I will then report this to my grandfather."Clario
The woman was beaming at Clarion and said, "Everyone knows who you are in Grand City, sir. My name is Jade Bierstadt, and I'm your biggest fan. Although I'm a fan, I still need to obey the rules here. It will be bad for society if everyone can simply break the rules, right?"In other words, it's not because I have something against you. But it's because I have no choice as this is my duty. Since I'm making a living here, I need to perform my duties to earn my salary, correct? So, please forgive us and show us workers some mercy. But if you must ignore the rules here, then I'm afraid I'll have no choice…"And then, Jade gently clapped her hands. A group of men-in-black slowly walked out of the VIP passage after that. There were also some clicking sounds from the high ground some distance away, as several men started to parade their sniper rifles.The Platinum Casino had truly demonstrated their superiority today.Harvey narrowed his eyes. He had quickly determined that whether it wa
