Clatter! A group of guards training in the Hall of the Sun stood forward! Hans also stood among them! He was the most indignant! In his heart, Sun God Apollo was the only one worthy of his respect and obedience! No one else! Hans was not even willing to listen to the Strategist, but he had high prestige in the Hall of the Sun. Many times, Hans had no choice but to obey orders. “Okay, then. Let’s try out the standards of the so-called Hall of the Sun,” Philip said casually. He knew that Fennel did this on purpose. Seeing Philip’s nonchalance, many people got annoyed. “Wasn’t he just appointed the position? How pretentious!” “That's right. Looking at his age, he doesn't look like he can fight!” “I think we can just send a random person to knock him down!” Fennel smiled lightly. He knew that the group of people under him would disapprove of Philip, so he had deliberately set this up. Fennel had already concluded that no one here could compare to Philip’s streng
Slow! He was simply too slow! Philip shook his head helplessly and met Tyler’s punch easily. Philip turned around smoothly, switched the punch he had prepared to a palm strike, and knocked Tyler down with a simple attack using his palm! The rules here stated that they could not use the strength of a disciple indiscriminately! After all, no one could afford for anything to happen! Thus, they could only rely on their physical strength! At this point, dead silence filled the training ground. Tyler quickly got up from the ground, his face full of disbelief. “Impossible! I wasn’t prepared just now. Let’s start again!” Philip stood in the same spot and looked around. He saw everyone’s questioning gazes. Hence, he cleared his throat, and his voice echoed clearly on the training ground. “All of you can come at me together.” As he said that, everyone was a little stunned, but they soon started talking loudly. “What is he talking about? How dare he ask us to attack him
Philip was helpless and followed Fennel out of the base camp of the Hall of the Sun. Hans and Georgina followed closely behind them. Hans now admired Philip from the bottom of his heart because he was a man who revered strength. Now, in his mind, the boss was number one and Philip was number two. Hence, he followed with a chuckle and said, “Philip, teach me something next time. The moves you did just now were simply too dashing!” Philip smiled. He could tell that Hans was a man true to his nature. He was very forthright. “No problem,” Philip replied. Hans grinned broadly. Fennel also shook his head helplessly and chuckled. The three men walked toward a jeep parked on the side of the road. Georgina followed closely behind, her eyes stuck on Fennel. They were full of admiration. Even though Philip was amazing enough just now, in her heart, Apollo was unbeatable! After they left, the Strategist said to the rest of the people, “Alright, inform the others that the bo
“Black and White Furies? What an unusual name.” Philip frowned. Fennel responded, “They’ve gone through countless life and death battles with Hades for many years. They’re the killing machines that Hades personally developed. In the 12 Sacred Halls of the West, excluding the 12 hall masters, the strength of these two can be ranked in the top ten among the envoys.” Philip nodded at his words, and his gaze fell on Hans who was chatting with a hot girl over there. He asked, “What about in comparison to him?” Fennel shook his head and said, “Hans is not a match for the two of them, but if it's one on one, Hans can draw a tie with either of them. If it’s one against two, Hans’ chances of winning are very low. Even for me, it’s a little tricky.” “They’re that powerful?” Philip was a little surprised. Fennel shrugged, while Georgina interrupted from the other side, “That’s because the ability of Black and White Furies is quite special.” “Special?” Philip was puzzled. Accordi
“F*ck! How dare a barbaric loser like you ask me to apologize?” The man who grabbed Hans’ collar looked angry. He clenched his fist, waved it in front of Hans, and said, “Brat! Look at my fist. I can easily beat you to the ground!” After saying that, he looked at his friends around him with a smile and said smugly, “Look, this is a loser from the East. Hahaha, watch how I beat him to his knees until he begs for mercy!” The people around also raised the drinks in their hands and cheered. “Yeah, Charlie, f*ck him up!” “Knock him out and throw him into the toilet! Hahaha!” “Charlie! Go on! Beat him up! Show him the savagery and charm of Western men!” At once, the cheers of the crowd completely drowned the place. Charlie, the guy who grabbed Hans by the collar, turned around, squeezed his fists, shook his head, and said with a smile, “Boy, you’re dead!” After that, he smashed his fist right into Hans’ face! Bang! As a result, Hans also threw a punch at Charlie’s face!
Immediately, someone shouted, “Oh, it’s the Michael family! Look at the symbol of the golden cobra on their chests!” “They must be here to avenge Charlie! Those damned Orientas who offended the Michael family are doomed!” “Guess who will show up? Rick Michael or Matlin Michael?” Fennel and the others had just gotten up from the booth when they were surrounded by a group of bodyguards in suits with the golden cobra logo on their chests! “What Michael family?” Philip asked in puzzlement. Georgina replied, “The Michael family is one of the four great families in Sendona. They control a quarter of the economy in Sendona and also own the largest casino and bar here! They’re the king of the casinos and bars here in Sendona! “Moreover, they have the backing of the Hall of Evil. Their patriarch is one of the great envoys of the Hall of Evil! “This family of theirs is the most vengeful. It seems that the person Hans dealt with just now is a member of the Michael family.” Hans’ f
Without waiting for Hans’ response, Fennel smiled and said, “We’re friends of Hans.” “Friends?” Rick frowned slightly before he smiled and said, “As the owner of this place, I must advise you that there’s no benefit in making friends with Hans. Why don't you be friends with me instead?” Fennel immediately chuckled and refused. “I don’t think it’s necessary. We have different paths. In the eyes of the Westerners, Easterners like us don’t seem to be worth mentioning.” Rick smiled and said, “No, I’ve always respected the Easterners and like being friends with them. To me, the East is a mysterious and ancient place. I yearn to pay a visit. If I have the opportunity, I’d love to visit the ancient countries in the east. I heard that the people there are not well fed and don’t have decent living quarters. Some even have to go through the trash for a bite to eat. Is that true?” In the first half of the sentence, everyone thought that Rick Michael was a gentleman. However, the second
Rick turned his handsome face to Fennel, his eyes flashing arrogantly as he said, “Friend, I don't think I want to get out of the way. Why don’t you crawl out from under me on your knees and I’ll forget about what you did to my friends earlier? What do you think?” After saying that, Rick looked at Georgina. He smiled very gentlemanly and said, “Of course, Miss Georgina doesn't need to do that. You’re the goddess in my heart. I hope to have dinner with you later.” Georgina immediately scowled at him and said, “Rick, I advise you not to play with fire! Otherwise, even your Michael family won’t be able to bear the wrath from the Sun Hall!” “Oh, I’m so scared!” With a faked scared expression, Rick said, “Miss Georgina, you only have two great envoys here, while I have more than a dozen men inside and the experts of the Michael family outside. I don’t think even you can escape unscathed. Also, don’t forget that the patriarch of the Michael family, my father, is also a great envoy.”
“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
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
