Chapter 5228
As he spoke, Martin was about to step out of the clearing.
Then, a faint voice could be heard. "Since no one wants to step forward, I'll give it a go!"
As the words rang through the air, a tall and broad figure strode into the clearing slowly.
Clad in long black robes with a tall and broad figure, his gaze shone with a bone-chilling
frost.
It was the True Flame Sect Master-Adam Bedford.
The True Flame Sect had once been one of the ten main sects of the Cryolet Continent.
However, five hundred years ago, it began to go down before disappearing from the
world's attention altogether.
Recently, the True Flame Sect had fallen to be only considered a second- best sect in the
world. Members from more prominent sects and even pirates and hooligans hardly saw
them as a threat.
The sect master of the True Flame Sect was Adam, a man of around thirty years of age. He
was incredibly skilled and had once used a mere two years to develop the True Flame
Sect's highest form of skills and powers. Due to his humble nature and the fall of the sect,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe had gone unnoticed by most.
Adam's biggest wish was to return glory to his sect. He had come to town undercover and
knew that he had struck gold when he saw Martin propose the duel.
There was an uproar as everyone stared at Adam with gazes laced with mockery.
"Who’s this?” "I've seen him once. I think he's the sect master of the True Flame Sect,
Adam Bedford." "The True Flame Sect? That second-class sect? Ha! This is interesting. He's
going to beat Martin? In his dreams..."
As everyone spoke, they could not hide the mockery in their eyes.
To them, the True Flame Sect was nothing more than a good-for-nothing sect that had
gone to nothing. Even as sect master, Adam might not be any match for Martin.
To tell the truth, Martin's skills were worthy and impressive despite him just being the
head elder of the Heavenly Ocean Sect. There was no beating him.
The crowd's jeers grew, but Adam pretended not to hear them.
Huh?
Martin frowned lightly as well, scanning Adam from head to toe. "Would you like to have a
go, Sect Master Adam? I'm afraid it might be a waste of your time."
His tone was calm but laced with a hint of mockery.
Like everyone else, Martin looked down on Adam. After all, a second-grade sect master did
not have much status in the world. How could they compare to the head elder of the
Heavenly Ocean Sect, one of the three biggest sects in the world?
Despite only being an elder, Martin's impact in the world was anything but ordinary.
Sensing Martin's mockery, Adam flared up with anger in an instant. He was still a sect
master at the end of the day, and Martin had the audacity to be so rude.
Adam did not make a scene at all. Instead, he flashed a smile.
"Don't be mistaken, Elder Martin. I know where I stand, and have no intention of becoming
Alliance Master. 2 "My thoughts are completely in line with those of Yargon Wane from the
Metal Alcove Sect. I have nothing but respect for you, Elder Martin, and would like to
request the honor of learning from you."
As he spoke, Adam's expression was nothing but humble, but his gaze shone icily.
From then on, the True Flame Sect would rise again in the world and relive its former glory.
Ho ho...
Martin seemed to greatly enjoy Adam's words, smiling lightly as he said," Well then, let's
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbegin."
As Martin spoke, he shifted slightly on his feet as if waiting for Adam to strike. His attitude
made it seem like he was holding out for Adam, humiliating him greatly.
Adam did not bother to care about that.
"Alright. If you would excuse me, then."
As the words rang through the air, Adam exploded with internal energy as he brought a
blow down onto Martin.
Martin was very much prideful, and was certain that Adam was no match for him. He
stood unmoving, staring intently as Adam's blow drew closer before raising his hand to
meet it at the very last second.
Thump!
In the blink of an eye, both blows collided heavily. A dull hum could be heard before a
strong ripple of internal energy rolled out into the atmosphere.
The next second, Martin and Adam could be seen letting out dull hums, each staggering a
few steps backward.
It was apparent that the round had ended in a draw.
What? 1
The crowd was shocked as they stared at Adam, unable to speak.
