Under the moonlight, Gerald could see the man running faster and faster on the grassy and leaf-covered ground, leaving a trail of rustling noises behind him. The gentle rustling signified how light the man’s steps were, and he honestly looked like he was almost gliding across the grass rather than running over it. While Gerald had to admit that the man in black’s skill was top-notch, there was still a big gap between that man’s and his. ‘You’re still trying to escape…?’ Gerald thought to himself as he let out a tiny sneer. Gerald then kicked a branch off the ground with the tip of his shoe and, with extreme precision, he flicked it with his finger, sending it flying toward the running man as though Gerald had just fired an arrow! It wasn’t long before the branch connected with the man’s back, creating a loud ‘thud’! The impact of the branch was so great that the man in black found himself rolling on the ground several times till he eventually rolled down the mountain slope!
The girls themselves were sitting beside Juliet as they continued staring at Gerald who hadn’t moved from his corner. “That’s right! Sure, you broke up with that previous guy and that’s honestly fine! However, you really don’t need to make yourself suffer by being with this one! I mean, just look at all the powerful and reputable figures who are here today! You know, I’ve also noticed that several of the handsome men here have already taken interest in you!” “Yeah! So why not take the opportunity to finally get rid of him today so that you can start seeking out your true happiness again!” Listening to her friends trying to persuade her, Juliet herself began thinking about it. Honestly, if her friends had persuaded her on any other day, Juliet knew that her decision to continue on with the fake marriage wouldn’t falter in the least. After all, as the name suggested, the marriage was only for show and Juliet was well aware of that. However, things were different today. After a
“Well, from what I’ve heard, Miss Marjorie seemed to be very interested in Mr. Gerald when Mr. Quinlan and him first came to the university. However, Miss Marjorie instantly had a lot of interest in Mr. Quinlan next, the moment she found out about his background! As a result, she’s been treating Mr. Gerald like a complete stranger since then!” explained Nicole. “Hah! What an evil woman! What’s so good about her anyway?” grumbled Tulip, dissatisfied, Marjorie and Quinlan themselves walked past the group—hand in hand—without greeting Tulip and the others. After all, they were here as guests today instead of being their lecturers. As they continued walking on, Marjorie noticed Gerald who was still sitting in the same corner. When she first found out that Gerald had gotten married to the eldest young lady of the Yowell family some time ago, Marjorie had felt extremely anxious about it. However, she soon calmed herself when she realized that he was only a live-in son-in-law. Shaki
“Could that person be a practitioner of sorcery? Isn’t that a little too evil?” As the people in the crowd continued discussing the situation, the young man simply glanced at everyone below stage as he said, “So, what does everyone else think about my proposal? After all, the best things in the world should naturally belong to the strongest, right?” After all that had happened, several of the big bosses were now too frightened to speak up. While the bosses momentarily remained silent, someone from the crowd said, “…That young man goes by the name of Marco Thunder! He’s from Thunderous Dragon Inc. and just as the rumors had stated, Mr. Thunder truly is an extraordinary person! It’s really no wonder at this point how Thunderous Dragon Inc. managed to dominate so many strong underground forces! How evil!” “…He’s right! Victory should always belong to the strongest! I agree!” shouted one of the bosses after a long silence. One by one, the bosses took turns agreeing to Mr. Thunder
“It turns out to be a master from the Takena family! Perfect! I have been waiting to compete against you on this trip!” Mr. Thunder said as he smiled lightly while standing on stage.As for Ito, he had already walked up onto the stage, and he was bowing slightly in front of Mr. Thunder.A big battle was about to begin.The people in the audience did not make any more noise, and all of them were simply staring quietly at the stage.“Although this Japanese warrior is very powerful, I don’t think that he will be Mr. Thunder’s opponent at all because Mr. Thunder is simply too evil!”“That’s right. But I believe that he will be able to fight at least three rounds against Mr. Thunder. After all, he looks pretty strong and powerful too!”There was a lot of discussion going on amongst the people below the stage.“You can start. Let me see whether the Takena family really has this kind of strength and power, or whether it is merely for show!” Mr. Thunder laughed as he said this, crossing
“Marjorie, you came at the right time today! You will have the opportunity to see the big boss in Heavenly City!”Quinlan was also looking forward to this moment.Marjorie straightened out her hair as she asked, “Based on what you have just said, it seems as though you have never met him before either?” “Of course, not! Even my dad has only ever seen him once from a distance. Only the head of Talgo Town has ever had direct contact with him!” Quinlan replied as he smiled.As for Gerald, he had been observing all the major forces from below the stage. He was now almost done observing every force here.Gerald had already encountered and fought against many masters in the past six months or more.However, ever since someone had tried to plot a sneak attack against Lyra the other night, Gerald already felt that this group of people were all not that simple.Therefore, Gerald was not in a hurry to stand up and step forward without knowing and finding out the exact details.But at th
Everyone in the audience below the stage had already stood up at this moment.As for Ito, he performed a warrior ritual before he rushed directly toward Gerald.Boom!After leaping into the air, he wanted to raise his leg to attack Gerald’s chest directly.His speed was extremely fast.However, even though he was fast, Gerald was even faster than him.Gerald immediately raised his leg to kick Ito’s raised right leg.After a cracking sound, Ito knelt directly on the ground.He had a very pained expression on his face.“What?!”Everyone in the audience was in shock.When Lyra saw Gerald going up on stage just now, she had been worried to death because she knew that this Japanese warrior was very powerful. How could Gerald, who had such thin arms and legs, possibly be his opponent?!Lyra was kind-hearted, and she usually would not be able to bear seeing even a white rabbit get injured.What’s more, when this was her husband?Lyra had been very fearful, and she was on tenterh
Meiko spoke softly.Ito was surprised. “Not an ordinary warrior?”Meiko stared at Gerald and the others who were walking down the mountain with envy in her eyes. “Well, don’t you remember, Grandpa told us that once a person’s physical strength and his meridians had already reached a certain level, he would no longer be an ordinary warrior because his body will start releasing inner strength!”“Wouldn’t that mean that he is already a champion, then? In that case, that is not surprising at all! How could I possibly be the opponent of a champion who practices inner strength?! However, it does not seem right, Sister. I remember Grandpa saying that some talented masters cannot produce inner strength even after training and practicing for their entire life. However, he seems to be about the same age as us. So, how could he possibly know how to channel his inner strength?!”Meiko said, “That is also what I am feeling puzzled about! He is so young, but he actually possesses a physique that
