At the New Chesire Group headquarters, perched on the top floor of a skyscraper in Ol' Mare, the General Manager's office was a beacon of light against the night sky.Alexander had been gone for just a day, but in his absence, the Xanthos family had launched a full-scale economic assault. Distributo
Zane's face darkened as Damian's challenge hung in the air, but he could not come up with a comeback.The next generation had failed to live up to expectations, their skills lacking.Damian Habeck was a force to be reckoned with—a Southern Fist prodigy who had mastered kickboxing in Alstonberg and d
That guy... He was no ordinary fighter!A muscle in Damian's eye twitched as he locked eyes with Alexander, sizing him up in a heartbeat.Alexander had burst onto the scene with a downright chilling speed, on par with the legends of the fighter community's Grandmasters. Could Regulus Windsur really
Still thought he could lay a claim to the token?Not anymore.In Regulus Windsur, the ranks of fighters were tightly guarded fortresses. From energy transformation Grandmasters to supreme grand martials, from Martial Overlords to Unity Lords of War, each new level was a leap across a vast gulf of po
Zane felt like he was about to explode at Alexander's words.The audacious Martial Power, challenging the Yanker family? That was just plain bullying!Last time, his loss to Alexander had gone unnoticed, sparing his reputation. However, a public challenge from Alexander then? He had no choice but to
The mood in the room was grim until a familiar, buoyant voice broke the silence. "Looks like you've hit a snag," Alexander said with a grin as he stood at the conference room door.It was Alexander. Fresh from his trip to Yewspire Mountain, he made a beeline for the company, arriving just in time fo
The man in question, Vicenzo Batson, was the Little Knife Society's rudder in those troubled waters. His name was a byword for cunning, his connections a web that spanned from the city's elite to its humble street sweepers. Even the fishmongers served as his eyes and ears, his network was as deep as
Alexander shook his head.Where was he going with that?Vicenzo kept his eyes glued to Alexander, not showing an ounce of respect for the so-called 'King of Ol' Mare'.The moment Alexander's head stopped moving, Vicenzo's hefty frame surged forward, launching off the dock.Like a bolt from the blue,
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
