Chapter 221 Ryan''s Request


    Ryan approached Daniel with a sense of urgency. "Daniel, we can''t let Woods be the


    president of Martial Club United! He will act without restraint if he does."


    Having witnessed Woods''s formidable abilities, Jessica naturally wouldn''t allow Daniel to enter the


    ring. That was her man up for grabs, and she couldn''t bear any threats to him. She tly refused.


    "Ryan, who heads Martial Club United is your affair. Daniel''s my assistant, and I absolutely forbid


    him from getting involved in this!"


    As she spoke, Jessica turned her gaze sharply to Daniel. "If you dare go up there, I''ll break your


    legs myself!"


    Ryan could only look at Daniel with a plea in his eyes, hoping he would ignore Jessica''smands


    this time. At the same time, he regretted ever sending that invitation. He shouldn''t have given it to


    Jessica; he should''ve asked Daniel directly.


    Women, especially pretty ones, just end up causing trouble, he thought bitterly.


    "You can stop looking at me, Ryan! I can’t help you! I dare not disobey Jessica’s words. If I do, she


    might actually break my legs—or worse, I might end up sleeping on the couch tonight."


    Sleep on the couch? Ryan immediately understood the gist of what Daniel was implying. He had


    long suspected that the rtionship between Daniel and Jessica was not simply that of president


    and assistant, and now he could confirm that Daniel was no ordinary assistant – he was under 24-


    hour surveince.


    Unable to withstand this tension any longer, Brittany interjected with scorn. “Ryan, you''re


    overestimating this country bumpkin. He has some fighting skills, and maybe he could win against


    Justin if luck was on his side. But do you know who Woods is? He''s one of The 72 and ranked


    seventh.


    How can this country boy possibly defeat a top martial artist like that? If this country bumpkin dares


    to step on that tform, Woods will y him with a single w. He''s always been a coward, afraid


    of death. He definitely won''t dare to go up there. No matter how you plead with him, he won’t ept


    the challenge!”


    Brittany’s harsh words were meant to provoke Daniel since she actually wanted him to enter the ring


    the most. The country boy surely wouldn''t stand a chance against Woods, and even if Daniel didn''t


    get killed, he might at least end up with a broken arm. It''d relieve her pent-up frustrations.


    Additionally, Brittany longed to see Daniel lose: a defeat that would make her ecstatic. Just one loss


    for the country boy, one substantial mishap, and she could soar with joy.


    Jessica, being astute, quickly caught onto Brittany’s intentions and sharply reprimanded her, "Shut


    your mouth!"


    With a yful stick out of her tongue, Brittany fell silent, no longer provoking the discussion.


    Failing to get Daniel''s consent, Ryan reluctantly stepped onto the stage himself. As he went up,


    Woods immediately began to mock him, "Hey, isn''t this the former president of Martial Club United?


    Aren''t you too old to fight?"

    Ryan replied coolly, giving Woods a chilly stare, "Whether I can still fight, you''ll soon find out. Martial


    Club United is an alliance of just warriors, and you must not be the president here!"
