"The attacker introduced himself as Woody Henderson!" an injured bodyguard explained. "It wasn't just Ms. Harrington that was seriously injured by him. Even Mr. Cooke and Mr. Turner from the Iron Sword Sect were defeated by him! "We believe that Woody at least has the strength of a grandmaster. He's terrifyingly powerful!"Bosco kicked the bodyguard, and he was sent flying as Bosco cursed, "What useless trash! What's the point of having you if you can't even protect my daughter!"The bodyguard's body slammed into the wall, and his eyes rolled back and he died and bled out.The butler frowned and said, "I checked. When Woody attacked her, he said it was for someone called Penny.""Penny?" Bosco frowned. He had never heard of that name before.The butler continued, "Otto Schubert's daughter has another identity—she is also Miranda Sparks's apprentice."Bosco showed no contempt and snorted coldly. "So, she's the apprentice of that foolish woman! Celeste is in this condition, so wh
"Why would I run away?" Woody replied with a blank expression.Otto's eyes widened. "Ms. Harrington was almost beaten to death by you! And you dared to come back?"Fine, maybe that's for the best! You can take responsibility for what you've done yourself. Don't even think about dragging the Schuberts into this mess."We'll pretend we don't know each other!" he uttered. "When the Harringtons arrive, I'll make it clear that it was your own doing! It'll have nothing to do with us!"However, Woody walked past Otto without another word, ignoring Otto's rambling.Otto was fuming. "Hey… I'm talking to you! What do you mean by this? Why are you so rude?" "You said it yourself, we don't know each other," Woody said without a second glance.Otto was stunned into silence!It wasn't until Woody walked into the ward that Otto angrily shouted, "What's so great about you? I don't know what that old man even likes about you!"You're so young and reckless. You're so unaware of how dangerous p
As the six men approached Penny's ward, a hand shot out and grabbed the collar of the last man in line. After a series of strange noises, the corridor was left eerily empty.At the nearby nurse's station, a nurse stood up and stretched her neck to see what was going on. "That's strange. There were clearly several people passing by just now. Where did they go?" she muttered.In an empty ward, five unconscious guys were lying on the ground. The only one who remained awake was being held against the wall by Woody. His feet were off the ground and his back was against a wall. He wasn't able to move at all. "Did the Harringtons send you?" Woody coldly asked.The assassin gritted his teeth and snorted. "So what if it was? So what if it wasn't?"Woody smiled coldly and exerted more force through his hands.The assassin who'd thought he was strong immediately felt scared and quickly said, "We're from Thunderbolt Academy."The new head, Mark Luther, asked us to come here. The miss
Back at Miranda's residence, Woody had changed into clean clothes. There was even breathing from the two girls from the next room. On the big bed, Penny and Sherry were already asleep.They were very tired, and with Woody's help, they slept well. Then, Woody moved quietly and left the room without making a sound.Outside, snowflakes fell gently from the sky.…Meanwhile, at the Thunderbolt Academy, the snow had covered the ground. All the murderous intent was now hidden in the white snow.The main hall was lit, while other rooms were shrouded in darkness.However, the seemingly peaceful martial arts hall was actually full of danger.There, three middle-aged men sat cross-legged on the ground. One of them was Mark Luther.The three men were obvious warriors, but they indulged in a touch of elegance and had an exquisite tea set between them.Under a portable stove, the fire burned brightly as an iron kettle rested above it. There were wisps of steam emitting through the sp
The disciple spat out a large mouthful of blood and landed directly on the tea table. With a crash, the expensive tea set was smashed to pieces."He's a martial artist!" The two other academy heads immediately stood up. In contrast, Mark was the only one who remained calm.He looked at the apprentice, who was now covered in blood.Although this apprentice had only achieved the Basic Innate Level, Woody had been able to knock him away directly without even touching him. It proved to Mark that Woody wasn't weak. In fact, he had to at least be at the Master Level to do that! "Boy, are you here to make a scene?" the Mighty Dragon Academy's head shouted sternly.Woody replied coldly, "What else? To have tea with you?"The head of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy sneered. "You've got some nerve. Do you have any idea what the Thunderbolt Academy represents?""Don't the Harringtons own it?" Woody responded disdainfully.The Limitless Martial Arts Academy head widened his eyes. "
"How… How did this happen?" Mark and the head of Mighty Dragon Academy were shocked. Their faces were full of horror.They could never have imagined that the domineering head of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy could get trapped like a helpless chicken!He hung in the air by his neck, gripped tightly by Woody's single hand, unable to break free.The head of Limitless Martial Arts Academy was no ordinary martial artist—he was a famous grandmaster! He could even easily take over Andorry!With his strength, along with the countless apprentices in his academy, he would always confidently walk around. No one had dared to challenge him.And yet, such a powerful man was subdued by Woody with just one hand. It was unbelievable!But the most concerning part was that it looked like the head of Limitless Martial Arts Academy had willingly offered himself to Woody.From the start, Woody hadn't even moved from his spot. He had simply reached out his hand, and his opponent fell into his tra
Woody lifted the head of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy and hit him in the abdomen.With a loud "pop", the man's head flew backward, and his expression twisted into a pain-filled look.When his apprentices saw this, they rushed over and reached out to catch him. However, they'd overestimated their strength and were knocked down by their mentor instead.The sounds of bones snapping came from the apprentices as blood spewed from their mouths. Soon, there were multiple cries of pain too.Although the head of the Limitless Martial Arts Academy didn't spew blood, his injuries were the most serious.As soon as he got in the abdomen, he felt his energy reservoir shatter and collapse. His martial arts powers were completely gone!"You… destroyed my martial arts?" The head of Limitless Martial Arts Academy widened his eyes in shock. He was furious."Yeah, do you really need to ask?" Woody replied coldly.For a martial artist, the most important thing was their martial arts power!
With a resounding "thud", the head of Mighty Dragon Academy finally collapsed. His body fell flat on the ground, and his face was pressed tightly against the dirt.This was the first time he had ever felt such humiliation! The disciples from the Mighty Dragon Academy surrounded them, all looking at their mentor with disappointment and helplessness.Their mentor wasn't able to beat Woody either! Before this, they'd all thought that their mentor was invincible. However, reality showed that when facing someone stronger, their mentor not only stood no chance, but he'd also caved under pressure.Now, only Mark was still holding on. But even he barely managed to stay upright.At that moment, the head of the Mighty Dragon Academy realized why Bosco held Mark in such high regard—there was a good reason for it.He himself had already fallen, but Mark was still standing tall. Just this alone showed that he was no match for Mark."Young man, I order you to stop immediately!" Mark demand
Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the
Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c
He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m
In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr
Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a
Solomon was using very offensive language.Miranda had a cold look on her face, but since she was on someone else's turf, she couldn't act out.Jaycee was actually Solomon's sister, and there was an age difference of over twenty years between them.After Jaycee was born, her parents passed away due to illness. Before their death, they entrusted her, still an infant, to the care of Solomon.Solomon had a hard time raising his younger sister by himself. Now, as he watched her grow into a beautiful and talented young woman, she was becoming increasingly admired by people in the martial arts community.There were so many people trying to arrange marriages with the Edwards family that they practically wore down the doorstep from their frequent visits.Solomon was overwhelmed with options, dreaming of his sister marrying into a wealthy family and securing a beautiful marriage.Dreams shattered!Jaycee, who was as fresh and naive, ended up being paired with someone considered old and
To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the
Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance. At that moment, Edwin's
Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try." Woody volunteered.
