"Ah!"After a moment, everyone turned their attention back to see what happened to Vaughn. To their shock, the one kneeling on the ground was Nicholas. Looking at how he had lost his spirit, it felt like it was worse than simply failing.Many regained their composure when they heard the scream and looked at Vaughn in shock. They didn't expect Vaughn to disable Nicholas so easily. While none of them saw what Vaughn did, the fact remained that Nicholas was kneeling in front of Vaughn. But in this world, no one will seek the truth as to how the winner achieved his victory.At that moment, though they were all in a daze, they understood one thing. From today onward, Vaughn's ascension was something no one could stop. From today onward, they finally had four people as the Four Young Masters of Wolsing once more.Vaughn definitely had the power to replace the dead Hector.Vaughn was also a little dazed, but he quickly regained his composure. He kicked at Nicholas in disdain. "You ca
"Do you think what happened today is beyond your imagination?" Harvey asked in a whisper."Not exactly, it's just…" Mandy hesitated for a while before saying, "I feel like what happened today isn't all because of Nicholas himself. I feel like someone has already planned all of this, and Nicholas simply fell into this trap."Harvey raised an eyebrow, admiring her growth. "If someone really did set this up early, who do you think that person is?"Mandy gave it a thought and said, "Vaughn. It's most likely him, since he's the one who got all the spoils from this conflict. It doesn't look like he has the capabilities to do all this, though. If he did have this ability, then there would be no place for Hector in the Thompson family."Either Vaughn has been developing his powers and influence in secret, or someone else is teaching him in the shadows."Harvey nodded. "No bad. You're very close to the truth. Let me give you a hint. This guy behind Vaughn? You know him too.""I know him t
In the end, Harvey didn't go to Mandy's home. That was because when he was on his way back, he received a call from Charlotte.There had been some complications regarding his battle with the Shinto Way from the Island Nation at the Apex of the Forbidden City. He needed to go to the Martial Arts Alliance's Songstress's Stage to deal with it first.Originally, Harvey didn't want to waste time speaking with garbage from the Alliance. However, Charlotte made things sound serious. According to her, a group of people who came back from overseas had a problem with Harvey challenging the Shinto Way. They were quite forceful about it as well.Prince and Frederick tried to speak with them, but they had been slapped.Forget about Prince. While he was Heaven's Gate's current leader, he wasn't that powerful. However, Frederick was one of the so-called Four Kings within the alliance. If even he was slapped, it meant these guests from overseas were definitely quite strong and had powerful backe
The people who were from the Martial Arts Alliance were descendants of those who moved overseas a hundred years ago. They looked and sounded like ordinary people from Country H, but from a certain angle, the second and third generations of these people no longer had any sense of belonging to Country H.No matter if it was the so-called Lion City Martial Arts Alliance or the Summer Isles Martial Arts Alliance, they were simply using the fact that they all originated from the same place to support each other.However, Harvey knew that the Lion City Martial Arts Alliance and Summer Isles Martial Arts Alliance had already allied themselves with those from Country A. They managed to get a lot of resources from them and developed quickly. They had a lot of elites as well, but nobody knew if they achieved such power through pure training or using Country A's genetic engineering technology.For example, from what Harvey knew, the representative from the Summer Isles Martial Arts Alliance
Harvey stopped walking, then turned and looked at Charlotte. "Can I understand that you're telling me what to do?"Charlotte hurriedly shook her head. "Of course not, sir. I simply want to remind you one thing. Country H's Martial Arts Alliance is indeed ruled by power, but sometimes, power alone won't be enough to crush your opponents. Often, relationships are also quite important in our world."Harvey smiled. "Don't worry. This isn't my first carnival. Of course I understand that. There are those who you have to talk about relationships with, and there are those whom I will show power. A lot of times, how I will act depends on them instead of me, correct?"Charlotte nodded. "I've misspoken. With your abilities and power, these will be solved easily."Harvey nodded and said nothing. Charlotte was doing this from the goodness of her own heart. However, from his perspective, she would one day be forced into a corner."Mr. Harvey! Ms. Charlotte!" It was at this time when several
Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked at the center of the main hall. Two old men with combed hair and dressed in traditional garb were sitting there. One was slender and with a monocle, like a noble from the West. The other one had a moustache and, while there weren't a lot of wrinkles on his face, the liver spots on his face proved he was quite old.Behind them were dozens of men and women, all of them were wearing custom-made outfits and accessories from prestigious fashion designers. They seemed to think highly of themselves, looking down on everyone around them.It was obvious that an ancient city like Wolsing didn't impress them at all as they were used to all the vibrance overseas.Among them was a woman who was of obvious mixed heritage. She was the most scornful of the lot. While she had the face of someone from Country H, her eyes were amber. She looked at everyone as if she were looking at trash. But of course, with her looks and temperament, to certain men who had certai
The entire crowd was stunned to hear Harvey's words. The next moment, the woman of mixed heritage raised her right hand and pointed at Harvey with disdain."Screw you! Do you even know who this person in front of you is? How dare you speak to Donald like that? Do you have a death wish?"The others also glared dangerously at Harvey and Charlotte. If looks could kill, Harvey and Charlotte would have already died many times."Liza Parker! How many times do I have to tell you that your ancestors come from this land and you have also inherited their heritage? Even if you encounter a cat or a dog, you have to show some respect, understand?"Wilhelm narrowed his eyes. Harvey had caught his attention. He could tell who Harvey was very quickly—it was obvious he had received Harvey's information before arriving."Not to mention, this man in front of you is not some cat or dog. He's the most prodigious among all prodigies in the current generation! He's Harvey, the one who stands above all
Though Liza was apologizing, she didn't look apologetic at all. Her so-called apology was closer to mocking Harvey.Donald and Wilhelm watched this scene unfold with a dry smile. They didn't stop Liza. It was obvious they wanted to see how Harvey would react now that Liza had humiliated him so thoroughly."Looks like those who returned from the West don't even know proper courtesy and how to apologize properly. It's natural for something like this to happen if they had never bathed in the light of civilization," Harvey said calmly. "From this alone, it's enough for me not to take someone like you, who has just come back to her ancestral lands, seriously. But if a certain someone refuses to learn and still won't stop, I'm afraid I'd have to teach her a lesson on culture and courtesy."After saying that, Harvey looked at Donald and Wilhelm. "Of course, if some of our seniors need it, I can also teach them about how to respect the old and love the young.""Never been bathed in the l
