Chapter 216
Still in shock, Skadi was brought back to her senses by Justin’s voice. She shook her head and replied,
“I… I’m not quite sure… It seems… he might be in the Profound Reality Realm too?”
Her last few words were spoken very softly, lacking any confidence.
Previously at the Zells’ home, she had witnessed both Father Lloyd and Father Cillian treating this man
with the utmost respect.
Father Lloyd had the strength of a stage nine grandmaster.
Anyone who could make him cautious would have to have a level of cultivation surpassing his…
Zakariah stood in the center of the martial arts arena, placing his hand on his heart and facing the
surrounding audience. He said, “When friends come from afar, is it not a joy? Today, the Ihara Martial
Arts School from Sagen and my Jonford Hero Martial Arts School will have a friendly sparring. I hereby
warmly welcome everyone!”
As soon as he was done talking, a long-haired young man from Ihara Martial Arts School, wearing
wooden clogs, stepped forward. “We’re here to challenge your school today. If you lose, you must close
down your martial arts school, as per the rules!”
Upon hearing this, the venue went silent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZakariah’s face darkened.
He knew they were here to challenge his school.
If he lost, he would naturally close the martial arts school.
However, before this, he intended to give a proper speech.
Respect and morality came before martial arts
How dare a student from the Ihara Martial Arts School make such a bold statement publicly?
Moreover, Newi did not seem upset at his student’s lack of tact.
They were not just here to challenge; they were here to cause trouble.
After waiting a full minute without any response from Newi, Zakariah slowly said, “If that’s the case,
let’s just start!”
He then slowly left the arena.
The long-haired young man slightly waved his hand, and five students from his school marched toward
the arena.
Two were at stage five of the Energy Cultivation Realm.
Two were at stage five of the Grandmaster Realm, and the last was at stage one of the Great
Grandmaster Realm.
Then, Nash turned to look at the students from the Hero Martial Arts School.
Most were in the Energy Cultivation Realm. Three were Grandmasters, and two were Great
Grandmasters.
The three Grandmasters were only at stage three, and the Great Grandmaster was only at stage
one.
Zakariah nodded toward his students, and two young students at stage five of the Energy Cultivation
Realm stepped forward.
They were followed by two men in their 30s, both stage three grandmasters.
Lastly, a limping stage one great-grandmaster approached the arena.
Nash could not help but comment, “Good heavens, your martial arts school is really in a sad state, isn’t
it?”
The other side’s two stage five grandmasters could easily suppress Hero Martial Arts School’s stage
three grandmasters, and their only credible great-grandmaster was a cripple.
Fortunately, both sides had practitioners in stage five of the Energy Cultivation Realm.
Zakariah frowned and said, “I didn’t expect the Ihara Martial Arts School to come… and I didn’t expect
their strength to be this strong!”
At this moment, both sides stood facing each other in the middle of the martial arts arena.
“Hold on!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNash stood up from his chair, and everyone looked puzzled.
“Martial arts should be fair and just!
“The difference in the cultivation levels between the students of the Ihara Martial Arts School and the
Hero Martial Arts School is too great! There’s no fairness at all!
“Either forbid the use of inner energy or replace them with people of equal cultivation realm!”
Nash’s voice echoed like it was amplified, reaching everyone’s ears.
The long-haired young man scoffed. “Can’t the Hero Martial Arts School even produce a single stage
five grandmaster?”
Nash glanced at him indifferently. “Who are you? Was I talking to you?”
The young man looked stunned, then clenched his fists, ready to teach this disrespectful guy a
lesson.
He was the beloved grandson of the Green Bamboo Association’s Hidden-Ghost Juggernaut and
possessed strength at stage nine of the Energy Cultivation Realm.
He practically owned the city of Sagen.
Every influential family and rich sons of wealthy families would have to treat him with the utmost
respect.
“Step back!”
Newi spoke calmly.
“Grandpa… He…”
“Enough!”
Newi’s gaze turned icy.
