Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2002
Since Gerald was staring at her so intently, Yudell couldn’t help but blush slightly as she raised her longsword,
pointing it at Gerald as she said, “Why are you looking at me like that? Also, why haven’t you answered my
questions?”
Snapping out of it, Gerald quickly replied, “…My name is Gerald Crawford, and I’m a participant representing the
Juans Delivery House in the competition between cultivators! As for why I’m here, I couldn’t sleep so I came out
here for a stroll. While walking about, I happened to notice the black figures from before bolting toward your room,
so I simply followed them here
While Yudell wasn’t completely convinced with his explanation, she put her sword away before saying, “I see. Either

Hearing that, Gerald was left utterly speechless. ‘I just saved you, you know? Would it kill to show a bit of gratitude?
Your temper’s as bad as Yalinda’s!’ Gerald thought to himself as he left the scene…
Regardless, once morning came, the first day of the competition between cultivators officially began. By that point,
a spacious arena had been set up in Gardale city for the participants to duel…
Once everyone was there, General Lucarl walked up the arena before declaring, “Good day, ladies and gentlemen!
Before anything else, allow me to apologize to Miss Yudell, the representative of the Thundering Cloud Sect! From
what I’ve been told, she was attacked last night, and I’m sure this stems from the fact that our guards didn’t
perform their garrison duty properly! As a result, not only was she nearly attacked, but her two attendants were
killed in the process.”
Upon hearing that, all the audience members turned to look at Yudell who—unlike the day before—was now
standing alone…
Seeing that, an uproar immediately sprung up, with many among the crowd discussing why the murderers targeted
solely Yudell when so many representatives from other sects were present.
Inthe end, the majority agreed that the Thundering Cloud Sect must have offended some major party…
“While all this is deeply upsetting, it doesn’t change the fact that the competition between cultivators is still on
today. With that said, the competition will commence as planned! As for our first contenders, the first duel will be
between Yudell Mullington from the Thundering Cloud Sect and Watts Jobe from the Sect of Steel! Contenders,
please prepare yourselves!”
Hearing that, everyone was slightly surprised, including Gerald. After all, who would’ve expected that she would be
first to fight?
Still, Gerald didn’t see that as a bad thing. After all, he would now be able to witness how strong she truly was.
Yalinda herself had previously told him how powerful she was, so he was keen on finding out how true that

statement was.
Either way, it was shortly after when both Yudell and Watts entered the arena…
The Sect of Steel was equally as famous as the Thundering Cloud Sect, and it was located in Liverbrook Valley south
of Shontell. From what Gerald had heard, Watts was also the first disciple of the sect, which was probably why he
was sent here to represent them.
Regardless, it was a pleasant surprise that such major sects would be dueling straight off the bat. It definitely made
everyone excited.
Whatever the case was, Watts gave a good look at Yudell before smiling smugly as he said, “You know, the
Thundering Cloud Sect has always won first place in the past… I wonder if you can maintain their winning streak!”
“Cut the cr*p! My sect is definitely going to win first prize again!” scoffed Yudell arrogantly.
While Watts definitely appeared confident, his smug smile would make anyone feel pissed…
