Philip… Clarke? Walton immediately thought of something and quickly bowed as he said, “So you’re Young Master Clarke. It’s nice to meet you. Today's matter was my son's fault. I apologize on my son’s behalf.” Wow! The people watching the scene were astonished at this moment! Before this when Victor protected Philip, they had not thought too much about it. However, now that even Walton was treating Philip with respect, some people could not help but speculate about his identity. “Philip Clarke? Why does the name sound so familiar to me?" On the side, someone finally realized something. “Oh, I remember now! He’s the Young Master Clarke who led the national martial arts to defeat Fusha in the world tournament! I heard that even the Jensen family, the family of national martial arts, has to respect him.” “Holy sh*t, no way! So Zachary Seed messed with a big shot! No wonder Walton Seed is so respectful.” “Well, in my opinion, I'm afraid the Seed family won’t end well thi
When Zachary said this, he glared at Philip sullenly! Walton was about to die from anger. He turned around. Suddenly... A deep voice tinged with anger sounded from behind the crowd. “Calling the bodyguards of Le Reverie dogs… Is this the tone and arrogance of the Seed family?” Swoosh! The crowd dispersed. From behind them, a man in a white suit who looked to be in his 30s or 40s strode over with a chilly aura. He had a stern and rigid appearance. “Wilbur Ellis, the manager of Le Reverie!” Many people at the scene recognized the middle-aged man in a white suit. He was the manager of Le Reverie. As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere in the entire place changed. Even Zachary, who was arrogant just now, quickly shut his mouth and looked at the other party with a sullen face as he walked toward him. Wilbur stepped forward. Behind him were four personal bodyguards. His every step produced a rhythmic thump that struck the hearts of the crowd. At this moment, the e
Hearing this, Walton was so frightened that his legs went weak! To think of Le Reverie as a pushover was simply an unforgivable act! Many people were overwhelmed by the pressure exuding from Wilbur. It was too strong! Such intensity and majesty were worthy of Wilbur Ellis! “Answer me!” Wilbur shouted solemnly with a biting chill in his eyes. Zachary was full of regrets now. Of all people, why did Wilbur Ellis appear? What should he do now? At once, Jake Chance and Casper Lent, who were beside him, silently stepped back and hid in the crowd. Zachary glanced at his father next to him and hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say. Walton quickly jumped in, saying, “Mr. Ellis, you’ve misunderstood. My son didn’t mean that. He was only trying to say—” “Is it your turn to speak? I’m asking your son!” Wilbur chastised coldly. By speaking out of turn, he was not showing respect to Walton Seed in public. Walton’s face darkened, and the corners of his mouth tremb
Walton’s face instantly darkened as he gritted his teeth and said coldly, “Young Master Clarke, since you’re putting it that way, then the Seed family really wants to see what means you have.” Philip laughed and was about to make a move when Wilbur, who was standing at the side, said lightly, “Young Master Clarke, can you spare the Seed family on my account? There’s a special auction party at Le Reverie tonight. Can I invite you to attend?” Philip turned his head and scrutinized the cold demeanor of Wilbur Ellis. He could not see through this person at first glance. He was an interesting character. After thinking about it, Philip smiled and said, “Okay, I'll let the Seed family go for your sake.” “Haha, thank you then, Young Master Clarke. This way please.” Wilbur made a gesture of invitation. Philip walked forward, followed by Victor behind him. From the beginning to the end, he did not pay attention to Walton and Zachary who stood sullenly on the side. Philip could no
As soon as Kelsey said that, the great figures sitting at the jade onyx round table in this glorious side hall also cast strange glances at Philip. Most of them only took a second glance before they stopped paying attention. It was because all those who could sit here were powerful and remarkable people. Everyone had their pride and ego. Even Kelsey had to behave properly here. It was not that the Clarke family was not as good as them, but keeping a low profile was the only key to survival here. Moreover, most people knew Kelsey’s identity. They were courteous on the surface just to show some respect. They were here for the auction. When the bidding started, that would be when the competition really began. It was much more cultured than having a real fight. Wilbur invited Philip to step into the side hall. Victor followed closely but he was stopped by the bodyguards at the sides. Within three meters of the round table was a circle of black-suited bodyguards who were g
Immediately after, a woman in a red dress walked gracefully to Wilbur’s side while holding a document with both hands. Wilbur took the document from the woman's hand, picked up the pen, wrote in a flourish, and said to everyone, “From now on, Young Master Clarke is one of the core members of Le Reverie. This is the membership agreement. I believe everyone can see it.” Hearing this, everyone's faces darkened and their eyes fell on the indifferent Philip with a little more suspicion and hostility. Who on earth was this kid to make Wilbur take him so seriously? In the past, one had to go through various assessments to get Le Reverie’s membership. Now, for this kid, Wilbur just signed the documents on the spot. “Haha, since you’re already a member, there’s nothing else to say. Young Master Clarke, I look forward to having a good time with you.” Several people displayed friendly attitudes to Philip at this moment. Philip also greeted them one by one. “Thank you.” However,
From the moment they came in, the atmosphere in the whole hall became extremely tense! In the hall, many bodyguards of the prominent figures stood up at this moment, staring at the group of foreigners fiercely. The bodyguards of Le Reverie also stood on alert. At the round table, many people’s faces turned unpleasant and hostile when they saw the group of people who had barged in. “Oh, Calw, this is Le Reverie! We’re not in the West, much less the domain of the Hall of the Underworld!” Sigmund Steele spoke at this moment with hatred in his eyes. Calw, the Sacred Hall of the West? Philip frowned, and his gaze instantly fell on Calw. The words and actions of this guy revealed arrogance and high-handedness! Was he that envoy of the Hall of the Underworld? After Sigmund finished saying this, Calw stood with his hands behind his back and laughed. With a pair of menacing blue eyes, he stared at Sigmund and said, “Patriarch Steele, I just took some business away from you. Is
For a while, the atmosphere in the room was tense! However, Calw seemed unwilling to talk to these people. He pulled on his suit and tie, saying proudly, “People like you dare to compare yourselves to the Hall of the Underworld? Even the most powerful hidden families in your territory are beneath my hall. As for you all, you’re nothing but rich families from small districts or cities.” After that, Calw turned his head and said to Philip coldly, “I’m still going to say the same thing to you. Cancel your date with Miss Larson.” The pressure was overwhelming! Calw had long had his eye on this daughter of the Larson family. At his words, the four foreign bodyguards he had brought with him pressed their hands to their waists as if they were ready to fight! However, Philip stood up calmly at this time, picked up a crystal ashtray on the table, and weighed it in his hand. Exhaled heavily, he then said, “I didn’t want to get into a feud with the Hall of the Underworld so soon, but
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
