Still, just from the way Gerald looked and talked, Kay knew better than to doubt him. Whatever the case was, seeing that Kay was about to escort them back to Shontell—to ensure that the holy stones wouldn’t get stolen by other bandits—Tanner took the chance to walk up to Gerald and say, “Speaking of which, are you headed for Shontell, Mr. Crawford?” “Indeed, we are!” replied Gerald with a nod. “I see! Then… Why don’t you come with us? After all, I still need to properly thank you for saving us!” suggested Tanner in a sincere tone. Chuckling in response, Gerald then said, “You’re being way too cordial, Captain Juans! Regardless, I’d rather not get in the way of your work! Don’t worry about us, we’ll head there later on our own!” “Well… Alright then, but if you need anything or require any assistance in Shontell, you know who to look for!” replied Tanner in a slightly disheartened tone. Still, he wasn’t going to force Gerald to go along with his plan. With that, Kay, Tanner,

Chapter 1992

Looking at how disheartened Yale was, Gerald could only sigh as he thought about it for a moment before replying, “…Fine, I’ll participate!” Naturally, the second he heard that, Yale instantly broke into a smile. Regardless, the duo then began heading toward the arena where the martial arts competition was being held… Upon arriving, they were slightly surprised to see how crowded it was. At the time, a woman and man were competing against each other, and each move they dealt gained loud cheers from the audience. Shortly after, the woman landed a kick right in the man’s chest, sending him flying out of the arena! Following more loud cheers, what appeared to be the judge then stood up before declaring, “And Miss Yalinda Juans scores another victory! Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge her? Remember, if you win, a hundred thousand holy stones will be yours!” Despite the promise of so many holy stones, the crowd instantly went silent. After all, they had all seen how p

Chapter 1993

Gerald, for one, really hated sore losers, and Yalinda had very clearly lost the match. That fact was only made even more apparent by how the audience didn’t step in to defend her. After all, anyone with the most basic common sense would be able to see the massive difference between their power. Whatever the case was, after hearing Gerald declare that in the presence of so many people, she finally realized that she had messed up. With that in mind, she stomped her foot before fuming as she growled, “You…! Fine! You win! Big deal! Just you wait and see…!” Following that, everyone then watched as the girl turned to quickly leave… Instead of cheering for Gerald, however, for some reason, the crowd now seemed to be more worried for him if anything. After all, all of them knew that in Shontell, Yalinda wasn’t someone to be trifled with… The judge himself quickly walked up to Gerald and handed him the holy stones before shaking his head. Following a sigh, the man then said, “It

“…Either way, there’s no helping it. That person won fair and square, and we just have to accept that!” replied Tanner as he consoled his daughter, knowing full well that in the world of martial arts competitions, nobody could remain at the top forever… Though Yalinda looked like she wanted to refute, she finally realized that there was a terrible scar on Tanner’s arm! With that in mind, she quickly asked, “Huh? When did you get injured, dad? What happened?” Hearing that, Tanner simply chuckled indifferently as he waved his good hand and said, “It’s just a scratch! Regardless, I got the wound from some of Mount Tygress’s bandits on my way back!” “Those bandits? They’re really getting more and more chaotic by the day! Either way, do consider increasing the number of men with you while you’re out delivering things! If you don’t, I swear I’m going to start coming with you as extra protection!” mumbled Yalinda after a short pause. Simply patting his daughter’s head in response, Tan

“Ah, don’t worry about that, Mr. Crawford! It’s normal to lose in a competition!” replied Tanner with a smile before inviting Gerald and Yale into his home… Since the Martial Arts family was merged with the Juans Delivery House, it only made sense for Tanner and his daughter to live in the delivery house Regardless, Tanner and Yalinda were both quite famous in Shontell. After all, the Juans Delivery House provided reliable service, and many of Shontell’s residents tended to look for them whenever they needed holy stones or other goods delivered. Due to their good name, it really was no wonder why those who used their service treated Tanner and Yalinda so politely. In fact, the Juans Delivery House even had several parties backing them up in Shontell. Whatever the case was, once they sat down together in the lobby, Tanner found himself asking, “So… What are your plans now, Mr. Crawford?” “First off, Gerald’s fine… Calling me Mr. Crawford is a bit awkward…” replied Gerald with

Chapter 1996

With his sentence cut short by Yalinda’s prideful and taunting tone, there was no way Gerald was going to say no now. If she wanted a fight, she was getting one, and he was going to make sure she never challenged him again! “Fine, I accept! However, I have one condition!” replied Gerald. “State it!” “If I win again, you’ll have to start addressing me as brother Gerald. Needless to say, I hope you’ll start treating me less coldly by that point! Seriously… Do you have to keep glaring at me like I owe you all the money in the world?” declared Gerald. Understanding how much of a sore loser Yalinda was, Gerald knew that he had to set clear rules or Yalinda would simply challenge him again in the future. Whatever the case was, Yalinda immediately replied, “Deal!” “Glad to hear it! Also, I’m sure you heard all that clearly, right, Captain Juan?” said Gerald as he turned to look at Tanner. With her father bearing witness to all this, Gerald was pretty sure Yalinda wouldn’t have the

Shaking his head as he watched his daughter walk off, Tanner could only smile rather awkwardly as he turned to face Gerald before saying, “…Please don’t take her childishness to heart, Gerald!” Naturally, Gerald wasn’t going to. After all, had he truly wanted to pick a fight with her earlier, he wouldn’t have gone easy in the first place. As the saying went, ‘true gentlemen didn’t fight with women,’ and Gerald fully agreed with that. Regardless, he wasn’t even going to bother further arguing with Yalinda. Either way, with that done, Tanner got Gerald and Yale a rather spacious room to stay the night in… It was later that night when Yale sat on his bed before saying with a wink, “Say, what do you think of Miss Juans, brother Gerald?” Turning to look at Yale with a slightly raised brow, Gerald then replied, “What? Do you have a crush on her or something? If you do, go ahead and woo her without involving me!” “A-as if I’d even consider such a thing! Besides, she’d never fall f

Seeing how hesitant Gerald was, Yalinda then proposed, “…Look, to prove how serious I am about this, please allow me to treat you two to breakfast! Just so you know, there’s a particular bakery in Shontell that serves the most scrumptious bread on the planet! I’ll treat you to a meal there, and after that, you’ll take me as your disciple! How’s that?” Before Gerald could even reply, Yale—who hadn’t moved from the door—nodded excitedly before saying, “I agree with her! After all, we haven’t had breakfast yet, brother Gerald!” Raising a slight brow, Gerald then paused for a moment before reluctantly saying, “…Fine! I can’t deny that I’m a little hungry too! We’ll talk more about this once we’re done with breakfast!” Following that, the trio began heading to the bakery Yalinda was talking about… Upon arriving, Gerald and Yale could immediately tell that Yalinda hadn’t been exaggerating. After all, the entire place was crowded! Regardless, upon noticing Yalinda’s presence, the owne

Chapter 1999

To Yalinda, as long as Gerald was willing to be her master, any conditions he stated would be fair. After all, she had never met a more powerful person than he was in Shontell. With his help, she would definitely stand a better chance in achieving her true goal… And that goal was to participate in the competition between cultivators! With his tutoring, she would most definitely stand a better chance of winning in the competition… Whatever the case was, Gerald then declared, “First of all, you can’t tell others that I’m your master! Secondly, you can’t have another master other than me! Can you do those?” “Definitely!” replied Yalinda without a second thought. “Very well, then! From today onward, you’ll be my disciple!” said Gerald with a satisfied nod. Gerald, for one, understood that Yalinda wasn’t someone minor in Shontell. Aside from the fact that she had the Juans Delivery House on her side, Captain Juans was also her father. Now that he was her master—which would most d

Chapter 2000

Knowing that Gerald would definitely be angry at her now for lying to him, Yalinda immediately bowed before declaring, “I apologize for hiding it from you, master!” “Yalinda, I get why you’re doing all this, but I’m slightly disappointed that you planned on participating in that competition without notifying me about it! After all, there’s no reason for you to hide it! I’d have helped all the same!” replied Gerald while shaking his head. “I-I understand master! I truly apologize for not telling you about it! I swear on my life that I’ll share everything with you from this moment onward, master!” declared Yalinda with a nod. “That’s what I like to hear! Regardless, since you’re participating in that competition, I’ll make sure that the first prize is yours to take!” replied Gerald, seeing no reason to be mad at her anymore. “R-really? How wonderful!” exclaimed Yalinda excitedly. “Indeed. Regardless, is the registration period for the competition between cultivators over?” aske
