The entire scene quieted down instantly for just a moment following Johansson’s remark. Everyone looked at him with a strange, mocking gaze. “Haha, Johansson. I think that you must’ve been petrified from being beaten up by the Rheasian! You’re actually boasting about the Rheasian. I didn’t expect that you'd be convinced by a Rheasian despite being a skilled Murican fighter. Haha, you’ve truly boosted the reputation of your country with your action, eh?!”Someone began ridiculing Johansson instantly without showing any courtesy in his choice of words. “Johansson, oh, Johansson, you’re a 5S-class transhuman after all, yet you’re terrified of just a measly Rheasian after getting beaten up by him. Tsk-tsk, you’re the shame of our 5S-class transhumans! You’ve not only disgraced your country but us too,” Kairo said in a mocking tone without any courtesy. They refused to believe Johansson’s claim and assumed that he was only making up an excuse to cover up his failure. Or else, he was sc
It could be described as a competition on the grandest of scales. On the other hand, the force that was present here was something that should never be taken lightly at all. If these people were to cause destruction, the power they could produce was no weaker than that of an atomic bomb!Therefore, a country would never host the martial arts cup on its own grounds without absolute strength and confidence because the risk was truly way too great!If these fighters were to riot, they had the ability to turn a city into hell in a heartbeat.Other than the country’s impressive strength, Rheasia had the courage to host the competition because of one other important reason. They had the invincibilis fighter, Ares, and he alone had the ability to control more than a thousand fighters!Moreover, Ares was not the only invincibilis fighter in truth. There was also Caelum the Saint who was even more formidable than Ares!Even though Caelum did not serve the government, he was still a Rheas
All at once, the Rheasians furrowed their brows ever so slightly. Then, Joe Pennywise stepped forward and said, “Mr. Vilin, are you referring to Sergeant Larson? I’m sorry, but he is preoccupied today, so he can’t be here.”Indeed, Zayn was still in isolation training. He did not show up for the opening ceremony today because his presence was not needed. Ares had already arrived at Waltz City in conjunction with the ceremony and was monitoring the scene in the dark, so there was utterly no need for Zayn. He supported Zayn’s decision to engage in training because he understood the importance of the martial arts cup and the fact that the event was held in Waltz City. He was certain that his superior would do anything they could to ensure that the first spot belonged to Rheasia!Glory was one of the advantages, but the main attraction was the opportunity to visit Shangri-la. If Zayn could go to Shangri-la, it signified that he stood a chance of making a breakthrough in his training to
General King went right down to the heart of the matter. Even though he was just a consul general, his intelligence quotient was phenomenal. In addition, he had been in high office for a long time, so his ability was not something that ordinary people could compare to. At once, Kairo’s expression changed drastically upon hearing that. There was a tinge of unnaturalness that flashed across his face for a moment. General King had hit the nail right on the head. His motive for coming here was partially fuelled by cowardice. Of course, he could not possibly admit that though. He let out a grunt heavily and said, “A coward? What a joke! I, Kairo Vilin, have killed more Rheasians than I can count. Other than Ares, there are no capable men in Rheasia. What’s there for me to be cowardly of?”“You!”His remark was so arrogant and exaggerated. Moreover, it was made at a scene like this, in the witness of so many Rheasians. It triggered the anger of all the Rheasians instantly, including
In a bustling cafe with a sea of customers, a man, who could only be labeled as being far from handsome, was seated in a corner, dressed in plain clothes. He had his eyes shut to rest. He was seated over there, but his presence did not affect the customers at all. In fact, the numerous customers in the cafe did not even pay much attention to him. It was as if he was just a statue without much sense of existence. He was none other than Zayn. Moreover, he was there not purely for the beverage but was in isolation training. If someone else were to notice that, the person would certainly be shocked. One should know that the vast majority of people chose to engage in isolation training in a quiet, secluded place without any distractions. It was because isolation training prioritized one’s focus to enable one’s mind to work at full speed!Moreover, one would always be in the weakest state during the isolation training, so one must look for an absolutely safe and quiet location in
“I don’t know. There are always weirdos in this world.”“Is he pretending to be cool so that he can attract beautiful chicks?”“F*ck, how’s that possible? How can a man without money or looks attract chicks in today’s world? Do you think that you’re living in a romance novel or something?”“You’re right…”Even though Zayn was in meditation, he could still hear the voices of these people in the surroundings. It was a very intriguing feeling. It felt as if he was sitting in a mecha listening to the voices of these people. It did not feel real to him. The two beautiful girls looked at Zayn in astonishment upon hearing the discussion of these people. They did not expect that the ordinary-looking man would have been idling here for a few days. He exuded a feeling of mystery that piqued their curiosity beyond their control. They exchanged glances, then one of them attempted to ask, “Hey, do you have a napkin?”Zayn shook his head to indicate that he did not have one although he stil
Sitting there with his eyes closed, Zayn did not move at all and looked like he was sleeping. He had no intention of walking over and striking up a conversation with them!Ten minutes passed…Half an hour passed…An hour passed…It was all the same. They were becoming restless instead. Could it be that this man was genuinely not interested in them?It did not make sense. In truth, they were strangers to Zayn, so he was not interested. Just because they were beautiful did not mean that all men would want to pursue them.Nevertheless, they were very proud of themselves. In addition, Zayn had a unique quality that made him irresistible. They felt restless and found themselves subconsciously attracted to Zayn. They did not even realize this was happening.Despite his average appearance, Zayn exuded a quality that ordinary men could not compare to. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a babe magnet to the vast majority of women. He would always draw their attent
“Huh? Not really,” Angie replied, shaking her head. Her face had briefly flushed at the guilt of being caught sneakily peeping. This reaction displeased the two young men even more.The two guys had long since been hoping to date the girls and finally got them to agree to a date. Thus, seeing this unknown man get in their way was quite vexing. Moreover, they could see how flirtatious the girls were being toward them. “Not really, huh? Then why are both of you staring at him constantly?” the other young man said.Angie and Madison felt even more self-conscious after he made that remark. In truth, they found it astonishing that they were constantly leering at the man. What was going on? Why were they gawking at a man they did not even know? ? He was not even that attractive!“No, we’re not. Don’t speak carelessly,” said Madison. The atmosphere quieted down a little. They were there for a fun double date, but all four of them had become distracted.Meanwhile, Zayn, who had been im
