It caused Leon and Fane to feel a bit awkward."Snow, don't speak nonsense. Leon's a Supreme Master! It's just that he keeps a low profile, so not many people have heard of him," Fane hurriedly explained."What? He's a Supreme Master? How's that possible?!" Snow was shocked. She quickly looked at Leon again, and was even more sure that Leon was a scammer!The martial arts circle in Springfield City was not particularly big.Among the youth, the two most excellent characters were Harvey and Anson.Leon was young. If he was a Supreme Master, he would be even more famous than both of them. There was no way he would be so unknown!"That's right, that's impossible!" Landry and the others were shocked as well.They thought the same as Snow. None of them felt like Leon could be a Supreme Master!It was not realistic at all!"Miss Poole, what Mister Wolf said is true. I can assure you, Mister Wolf is a Supreme Master!" Mason said."Shut up! I can tell what's real or not. You have no
Snow said coldly.At her command, Landry scrambled and motioned for a few men to chase Leon away."Hold it! Mister Wolf is a friend I invited here. I won't allow any disrespect to be shown to him!" Fane said unhappily."Fane, you-" Snow's face turned cold. Before she could say anything, there was a commotion on the other end. A group of people walked over."Jacob's here!" Suddenly, everyone looked over. Even Fane and Snow's expressions turned serious.Jacob looked as arrogant as ever. His head was held high, and he quickly stood not far away from them."Oh, I was wondering who it was. If it isn't Snow Poole!" Jacob immediately looked at Snow. His eyes stopped on Snow's beautiful face and gorgeous figure for a few moments as a look of greed flashed in his eyes."Jacob, watch where you're looking. I might just dig your eyeballs out!" Snow shouted out."Haha, I'm afraid you don't have the skills for that!" Jacob laughed.His subordinates laughed with him as well."Jacob, don
"I think so too! Don't worry, I'll play along till the end!" Jacob sneered.After that, both sides went back to their camps and started to talk about the match.The match was very simple. Both sides would send out five participants, one at a time. The winner would continue to stay, while the loser would have to leave. It would continue until one side was completely wiped out.Fane had everyone gathered together, "Let me arrange the five who will be participating." "There's no need. I'll take charge of everything from now on!" Snow said strongly. After that, she quickly made arrangements.Fane's two guards would fight in the first two rounds, and Mason would fight in the third, and Horsen in the fourth.She was the strongest, so she would be the trump card at the end."How could you do that?! What about Mister Wolf?" Fane was shocked, and immediately opposed it."What's the point of a fraud-fighting? Is he supposed to go up and embarrass us?!" Snow said coldly.Even if she reg
Leon ignored Snow's gaze of disdain and contempt.From the moment he met Snow, Snow was incredibly unfriendly to him, causing him trouble everywhere.He would have already left if he was not close to Fnae and if he did not already promise to help Fane. There was no reason for him to suffer those looks from Snow!Not wanting to fight against a woman, he decided to just ignore Snow's gaze."Mister Poole, do you want some fruits?" Leon tossed a fruit over to Fane."Sure, I have nothing to do anyway."Fane walked over with a smile, sitting down in front of Leon. The two of them chatted away happily.That brat must be challenging her on purpose!Snow's face reddened in anger. Flames almost started to shoot out of her eyes. However, she could not touch Leon for Fane's sake."Snow, you can just ignore that guy. He's just a fraud. He dared to try and scam us. Once the match is over, we'll deal with him!" Landry consoled in a low voice.Snow took a deep breath and nodded. She looked o
Facing Horsen's intense attacks, he slowly fell to a disadvantage.Even so, he still managed to last a few dozen exchanges with Horsen. In the end, he lost because his stamina ran out."We finally won one!" Snow breathed a sigh of relief, letting out a smile.Landry and the others reacted more or less the same way. Their morale recovered a little.However, it did not last long. Horsen and Riker fought at full power earlier, and Horsen already spent most of his strength. He quickly fell to one of Jacob's guards. "How'd things end up like this?!" Snow's expression changed, unable to keep her calm.After the last few rounds, her side used three of their men to barely defeat one.Other than Leon, the scammer, only she was left to fight against four opponents.Among them was Jacob, one of the best fighters among the youths of Springfield City. He was at the late Innate Stage, so there was no way he was any worse than her.It was a pipe dream for her to defeat four of them alone!
"What? Don't you like the fact that my sister's older than you? It's fine, an age gap isn't that much of an issue nowadays. My sister's just three or four years older than you at most. Both of you would suit each other very well!" Fane did not give up."Mister Poole, forgive me for being honest, but your sister's so beautiful. She comes from a good family as well. She has many suitors! It would be easy for her to find a suitable boyfriend. Surely you don't need to be worried for her?" Leon asked curiously."You don't know this, but my sister was hurt badly by a relationship before. After that, she started to hate men, especially men with silver tongues who are not reliable. My dad and I both hope she can find a man to spend her life with soon. At least, we hope she'll be able to step out of that shadow," Fane sighed and said."So that's what happened!" Leon realized something, finally understanding why Snow seemed to hate him so much.Snow was probably lied to by a man and hurt bad
"This is good too. The more hope you have, the more disappointed you'll be! I'll extinguish all your hope myself later. I'll let you know what despair is!" Jacob said arrogantly."The one who'll be in despair is you!" Snow said coldly. However, she was incredibly nervous inside, not feeling nearly as calm as she looked.She already said it before. Jacob was already at the late Innate State, and was not far away from reaching the peak.He was not weaker than she was. Furthermore, she already went three rounds earlier. She already used up a lot of her stamina and true energy.At that moment, she had a very slim chance of defeating Jacob!"What? Are you scared?" Jacob seemed to have seen through Snow's thoughts, and he had a sudden idea."Miss Poole, you're a woman in the end, and you've used up quite a lot of strength fighting the last three rounds. It would be too easy for me to defeat you like that! Why don't I give you a one-hand handicap?" Jacob said meaningfully."A one-han
It was the perfect opportunity!However, there were no absolutes. Energy Nurturing Pills were too valuable. They were things that all the large families coveted. Two hundred pills was not a small sum either.If she was not careful and ended up losing, it would be a huge loss!The price was too big to pay, so she was a bit hesitant."What? Aren't you even willing to put just two hundred first-grade Energy Nurturing Pills on the line? If that's the case, I can give you a new condition!" Jacob said with a challenged look."What condition?" Snow asked.If Jacob gave them an easier request, she could agree to it!"Miss Poole, you're one of the four great beauties of Springfield City, and you're the dream companion of many men! Any normal man would be moved by a sexy and beautiful woman like you! If I win, then you'll keep me company for a few nights. I want to taste someone as beautiful as you are, to see how amazing it feels." Jacob let out a sinister smile as his gaze wandered ov
"Miss Morrison, I would like to thank you for saving my life," Iris said as she approached Renee's bed. She meant to thank Renee for having saved her so narrowly from death during their encounter with one of Brahma's clones, which was why she lingered in Renee's room even after everyone left. "Miss Young, if you would truly like to return the favor, there is something you can do for me," Renee said, biting her lip as though what she was about to say was an excruciatingly difficult decision to make."What is it?" Iris asked, although she felt like she already knew what was the answer. "I would like to join you in being Leon's companions," Renee said with an expectant look. She harbored feelings toward Leon for some time now but refrained from competing against Iris and Cynthia, knowing there was no way she could win. However, she had an epiphany after her narrow escape from death and realized that there was so much more to life than competing with other women over a man. Therefor
"Nothing is impossible! It's high time you accept your fate, you old git! Take this! The Phoenix Sky Fist!" Leon merely scoffed at him. The next moment, he directed one last attack at Wulfric in the form of his most powerful move—the Phoenix Sky Fist, a sage technique belonging to the Heavenly Class!A cloud of pulsating energy charged straight toward Wulfric, without any mercy toward his cries of horror!Its sole intent was to destroy him and put an end to this battle!"No—" Wulfric let out a bloodcurdling scream as he watched, defenseless, as the Phoenix Sky Fist soared toward him. His first instinct was to leap out of harm's way, but Leon was far too powerful for him and anticipated this beforehand. Not to mention the Phoenix Sky Fist was one of the most powerful moves belonging to the Heavenly Class, and there was no possible way he could escape from its wrath.Wulfric's limp body only left a few feet off the ground when the Phoenix Sky Fist crashed into him, rendering his body
"Haha! I've finally attained the Saint State! Now it's time for you to die, you old git!" A glimmer of malice flashed through Leon's eyes. When he fixated his gaze on Wulfric's face, it sent a shudder down Wulfric's entire body, for Leon's eyes were like two pits of deep, dark, sinister hatred. "How cocky of you to say that, you twat! So what if you attained the Saint State? You haven't even got time to harness your powers yet, so you're no match for me! Take this!" Wulfric scoffed, taking no notice of Leon's threats at all. Then, without another moment's hesitation, he sent a powerful surge of energy pummeling Leon's way, intending to destroy Leon while his defenses were low!"He's right. So what if he's attained the Saint State? He can't even control his powers properly," the rest of the Chanters all agreed, and felt rather relieved by this. The glimmer of hope that ignited briefly within Pierre, Zach, and the rest was immediately doused after hearing the Chanters' words. Wulf
"Hahaha! This ends here—once and for all!" Wulfric broke out into a manic cackle of laughter upon seeing Pierre's defeat. The defeat of Pierre, Zach, and his two lackeys had no doubt instilled a newfound triumph in him, for the four of them combined were his greatest opponents thus far, and now that he rendered them powerless, there was no longer anyone in his way!Not even Leon, Percival, Alastair, or the rest of their comrades could defeat him! He and the Chanters would go on, unstopped, to dominate the world!One could only imagine his ecstasy at finally fulfilling his dream at long last!"All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!""All hail Master Chanter!" Aiken and the rest of the Chanters erupted into thunderous applause and cheers of sheer elation. "Oh no!""We can't possibly stand a chance!" Percival, Alastair, and the rest on the good side felt their hearts sink at the thought of their impending doom. Although they outnumbered the Chanters by a significant m
Gulp!Taking advantage of the moment, Leon decisively took out a Holy Spirit Pill and swallowed it. Initially, he intended to use an Essential Detox Pill to help Pierre, Zach, and the other two Semi-Saint State fighters counteract the poison. However, with Pierre injured by Wulfric and Zach along with the other two severely wounded and out of combat, even if he cured them, their side was still doomed to defeat.In this desperate situation, he could only take a gamble. He hoped that, with the breakthrough signs he felt in his martial arts bottleneck, the Holy Spirit Pill would help him break through the sage arts barrier or raise his power level to the Great Crossing Phase. This might be their only chance at victory."Mister Wolf, as long as there's life, there's hope. I'll try my best to hold off Wulfric. You must escape now and find a way to avenge us later."Pierre, enduring his injuries and the poison, stood up with a determined look on his face. He knew that their side was alre
"You're courting death!"Wulfric, enraged by Leon's fierce attack and the slaying of Central Boss, had no choice but to halt his assault on Pierre and the other three momentarily. He turned and unleashed a powerful palm strike, its overwhelming force aimed squarely at Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist.Boom!The collision between Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist and Wulfric's attack was explosive. In an instant, Wulfric's strike shattered Leon's Phoenix Sky Fist, and its residual force hurtled toward Leon."Not good!"Leon’s expression changed drastically as he rapidly tried to evade. However, with Wulfric's Saint State power level, evading was futile. No matter where he ran, he was unable to get out of the attack range. The residual force of Wulfric's true energy struck Leon, sending him flying and crashing heavily to the ground.Cough! Cough!As Leon hit the ground, a wave of intense pain surged through his chest, causing him to cough up two mouthfuls of blood. It was clear he suffered significa
Whoosh!Compared to Percival and Alastair's heavy hearts, Leon remained relatively calm. In the past, he killed Poisonwielder and specifically crafted a potent antidote, the Essential Detox Pill, to counteract Reaper's Breath.He happened to have a few dozen of these pills on him. Though Pierre and the others were poisoned by Reaper's Breath, as long as Leon could get the antidote to them in time, they still stood a chance to win.With this in mind, Leon did not waste any time. He stopped fighting with Central Boss, leaped up, and quickly rushed toward Pierre and the others to deliver the antidote."Leon, are you planning to run away? Well, do you think it's going to be that easy?" Central Boss misunderstood Leon's actions, thinking he intended to escape. Given how much he hated Leon, he was not going to let Leon get away so easily.Without a second thought, Central Boss dashed forward, resolutely blocking Leon once again. With Wulfric having reversed the situation and forcing Pie
"Pierre, you have pushed me to this! Since that's the case, don't blame me for what I'm going to do next! You all can go to hell!" Wulfric's expression turned grim when he saw the Chanter fighters in a dire and dangerous situation. He knew he had to end this battle quickly to avoid significant casualties among the Chanter descendants.Thus, he decided not to hold back. He waved his two hands, releasing two clouds of white mist that surged forward, engulfing Pierre, Zach, and the other two. The white mist transformed into a flurry of powder, like a shower of flowers, enveloping the four of them."What's this?""This is bad, it's poison!"Realizing the unusual nature of the white powder, Pierre and Zach were alarmed.Immediately, the four of them held their breath and swiftly retreated, trying to escape the range of the white mist and powder. Unfortunately, it was too late! The white powder and mist seeped everywhere, and being too close to Wulfric, they already inhaled a signific
"How dare a loser like you be so arrogant? I'll teach you to be humble!"Leon sneered contemptuously. Central Boss clashed with him twice before, each time ending with Central Boss being injured and fleeing. Thus, Leon did not take his attack seriously at all.Without hesitation, he pointed a finger and unleashed the Advanced Earth Class sage technique, Earthly Plunder. Sharp and fierce energy condensed at his fingertip, roaring as it met Central Boss's attack head-on!Bang!Leon's Earthly Plunder clashed solidly with Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw in a violent collision. However, unlike previous encounters, this time Leon's technique did not break through Central Boss's attack; instead, it was shattered by it!Not only that! The Dragon Pill he recently took did not fully manifest itself yet, so not only did Central Boss's Soul-Piercing Claw shatter Leon's Earthly Plunder but also sent him staggering back.Leon struggled to regain his footing, retreating three or four steps be
