It was incredible!Naturally, they were unaware that Leon had recently advanced to the Acquired State, but his cultivation level had accelerated to surpass the initial innate state, so it was only natural that he could easily defeat four fighters."Good. Excellent work. Impressive! It's the first time I've seen someone harness their external power to such an extent!" Mason Shelton applauded, his eyes shining with approval.Leon had not used his true energy in his previous attack, proving that he was not a martial artist but merely a skilled fighter. External power was only the tip of the iceberg when it came to martial arts, and Leon had to be a gifted individual to reach such a level of strength through training for external power."You... Are you a martial artist?"Leon's eyes narrowed as he sensed the true energy flowing through his opponent's body. However, because Mason had not yet acted, he had no idea how powerful Mason truly was.Mason appears to be quite skilled, based o
Satisfied with the others' reaction, Mason turned to look at Leon with contempt. "Brat, did you see that? That's the internal power of a skilled martial artist! I'll give you one last chance. Are you getting on your knees, or should I force you down instead? Take a pick""You are so talkative. Let's just do this already!" Leon picked at his ear and said impatiently. He had been wary about the depth of Mason's strength, but during the show that Mason put on earlier, he sensed through the flow of true energy that Mason had merely reached the peak of the Acquired State.Leon would not stand a chance against Mason in the past, but considering the fact that he had surpassed the Initial Innate State, Mason was no threat to him."You have this coming, brat! I'll show you!" Provoked, Mason launched a swift punch at Leon.Concerned that Janice might get injured by the energy radiating off Mason's fist, Leon did not dodge and launched a kick toward Mason's chest.Mason was certain that Leon
Brody could not believe his eyes.He knew just how strong Mason was and did not expect him to be defeated by Leon in such a short amount of time with no chance of fighting back at all.He would not have believed it to be true if he had not seen it.Marilyn, on the other hand, was completely stunned as well. She had been married to Leon for three years, and she knew that he was still a useless scum up until two months ago. He was as lowly as a servant in the Manson Family with no power to fight back at all; however, he had transformed into a man who had the influence to shut down the operation of Sullivan Enterprises' chain stores, and possessed the strength to defeat the skilled fighters Brody hired alone.'Is this still the good-for-nothing guy that I know?' She thought. 'I guess you should never underestimate one's growth! Perhaps I have been too short-sighted to see his true potential!'"Leon, you... you were great!" Janice's eyes lit up at the realization that in the few years
"I promise you that this is the last time. I won't get in your way ever again...""It's too late to know your mistakes now!" Leon sneered and was prepared to strike.Terrified, Brody blurted out, "wait! You said that you will spare me if I kneel. How can you go back on your own words?"Leon stilled and remembered that he had indeed mentioned that he might consider spare Brody and Mason if they kneeled before him. "That was then, and this is now! Besides, I only said that I will consider it. I didn't make any promises!" He said mockingly."You..." Furious, Brody cursed inwardly, but decided to white-knuckle through the humiliation. He had already let go of his pride and kneeled to Leon, so he could not simply give up."Marilyn, you are my wife! You were married to Leon for three years. Beg him for mercy so that he will spare me..." He called out to Marilyn hopefully."I..." Marilyn's expression darkened.Though she was Leon's former wife, the two had never consummated the marriag
She finally understood how rare it was for a man to give so much for her and began to regret divorcing Leon. However, it was too late for her to regret her choices....Leon and Janice walked out of the mall, and soon noticed someone hurrying after them."Mister Wolf, please wait." Mason hurried over."You? What else do you want?" Leon held his arm in front of Janice protectively as he shot a wary glare at Mason.Mason hesitated, before falling onto his knees before Leon. "Mister Wolf, I didn't mean to offend you earlier. Please forgive me," he said sincerely."It's fine. It's in the past now. Just get up." Leon waved his hand in dismissal.He knew that Mason was only doing what he was hired to do and since he had no personal grudge toward Mason, he felt no need to resent Mason over such an insignificant matter.Instead of getting up, Mason bowed his head and said respectfully, "Mister Wolf, I want to ask for your help and I hope that you will agree."Leon scanned him up and d
"Please just give me a chance..."Their interaction had caught the attention of passers-by, causing the people around them to widen their eyes in shock and steal baffled looks at Leon as Mason bowed his head to Leon.Even Janice did not know how to react."Just get up first!" Leon urged. News traveled fast on the internet and he did not want to be mistaken as a bully."If you refuse to take me as your disciple, I won't get up!" Mason said with determination."Just get up first. I can't be your master, but I can offer you some advice since you seem sincere," Leon reassured him with a troubled expression, all the while contemplating how he could help Mason."Thank you, Master!" Overjoyed, Mason bowed his head again before getting up."Don't call me master. I told you I'm not a disciple. I can only offer you advice, and you are not to call me that again," Leon said. He was not a martial artist, but Sage Art shared a similar foundation with martial art so he might be able to offer a
"Congratulations," Leon said.The progress of Mason's cultivation had been paused for six years and his true energy had accumulated to a certain level; the only reason that he had not been able to reach higher levels was because of the blockage in his internal circulation. With Leon's help, the accumulated true energy exploded, bringing Mason's cultivation level up to the Intermediate Innate State."Thank you for your help, Mister Wolf." Mason fell onto his knees respectfully once again. He had thought that Leon would advise him for a period of time and had not expected to reach anything more than the Initial Innate State; to his bewilderment, it only took Leon a few minutes to help Mason in ascending two levels.Such talent was unheard of and not only was Mason thankful, his admiration for Leon grew."It's nothing. Don't sweat it," Leon said, feeling slightly bitter. He had just surpassed the Initial Innate State himself and had not expected Mason to rise to the Intermediate State
Samuel slammed his palms onto the desk with a dark expression."Dad, a brat by the name of Leon Wolf tricked me. He reported to the Wick Group and caused this loss to our company..." Brody explained the situation. He knew that Leon was just a helpless orphan and did not think that he would possess the influence to command Jenson, so Brody merely thought that his act of raising the products' prices had enraged the Wick Group and Jenson was merely doing what duty commanded."Who is Leon Wolf? Sullivan Enterprises has no beef with him, so why would he report us?" Samuel asked."He's Marilyn's ex-husband and he has a grudge toward me..." Brody said gingerly."Marilyn's ex-husband? No wonder! I told you over and over again to marry a virtuous, innocent woman. You just wouldn't listen and went to find yourself a married woman! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Samuel growled as he turned to glare at Marilyn in contempt and disgust.The Manson Family was hardly a match for the S
