Chapter 1420
Galeno''s deep voice reverberated around theke area as he spoke. "A ring battle is a duel
between two fighters. No one is allowed to interrupt them, and those who intervene will be
disqualified. Are you sure you want to fight him?"
"I..." Faxon''s face darkened. "Egas had already admitted defeat just now, but he still deliberately
killed him. That is against the rules too! How are you going to punish him then?"
"ording to the rules, Egas didn''t voice out the words ''I admit defeat'' in person, so technically, he
didn''t admit defeat. Therefore, Fade''s attack is considered reasonable, and he did not vite any
rules."

"Was it not against the rules? Everyone can tell that he had stopped Egas from voicing out and
killed him for revenge," Faxon defended.
Galeno knitted his brows. "It''s the same as Egas'' and Jasmine''s case. Based on our previous
verdict on their battle, Fade''s actions in this contest are not against the rules."
"But..." He insisted.
Just then, Faxon''s master, Bannon, interrupted, "Faxon, that''s enough. You may return to your
seat!"
Although he was unwilling to give up, he didn''t want to go against his master. He had no choice but
to turn around and return to his seat.
Immediately after, the referee announced that Fade had won the match. As for Egas, since every
participant had already signed a contract when they signed up for the Martial Arts Convention, his
death was no one''s responsibility. The officials would not look any further into this matter either.
Fade returned to his seat with his head held high.
At this moment, all eyes were on him.
Although everyone tried to keep their voices as low as possible, the collective noises of everyone
whispering at the same time made the crowd seem lively.
Meanwhile, Tom''s brows knitted tightly as he listened quietly to the discussion between Halge and
his friends.
"Fade is very powerful. He killed Egas on the spot."
"ording to my evaluation by looking at Egas'' strength, Fade''s strength should have already
reached the Earth Level."
"We offended him previously. What if hees to take revenge on us as soon as thepetition is
over?"
"Don''t worry about it. Although he is indeed powerful, he had upset Faxon by killing Egas. Faxon
won''t let him have it easy in the following rounds."
Thepetition proceeded after the staff cleaned up the fighting rings.
The following matches were just as intense and exciting as the previous ones. However, after
Fade''s battle, the participants after him seemed to be more vignt during their fight. As soon as
they felt that they were no match for their opponents, they would admit defeat without hesitation.
This was the impact Fade had created after killing Egas. After all, no one wanted to be the second
Egas, to be unable to admit defeat before being murdered by their opponents.
Their actions sped up thepetition''s flow, and as a result, this round''s matches were over in a
sh. The next round of contests began shortly after.
Fade once again went on stage to draw lots. The audience shouted in unison when they found out
who he would be fighting against.
Coincidentally, Fade''s opponent for this round turned out to be Leighton.
Across the spectator area, Leighton stared at him with a hateful gaze. He did not seem surprised by
the result of their draw.
Fade noticed his unusual calmness. He immediately darted a suspicious nce at Dannon and
spotted his shady facial expressions. He sneered and muttered, "Don''t me me for not being nice,
as you are the one who sent your disciple to die."
Thepetition went on smoothly, and soon, it was Fade and Leighton''s turn.
The two of them were the focus of everyone''s attention. The scene became heated as soon as they
made their appearance on the fighting ring.
Leighton''s face was dark as he stood tall and stared at Fade viciously. "My brother''s legs were
crippled because of you. Egas died because you murdered him. Besides, you disrespected Young
Master Faxon. Today, I will make you pay for everything you have done, right here, in this arena."
Fade scoffed, "Is that so? Do you have the strength to do that? Otherwise, it will be toote for you
to regret it if you were to end up like Egas." Leighton snorted loudly at the insult and immediately
lunged at him. His body sprang forwards like an arrow from a bow, piercing through the air as he
came down on Fade. "How dare you say that! I''ll give you a little taste of what
I''m capable of."
Gusts of wind whistled and parted at his sides as he moved. It was as if his body was slicing the air
in the fighting ring into half. A wave of terrifying aura surrounded him as he aimed himself towards
Fade.
It was a spectacr sight.
"Leighton''s positive energy is too formidable. He was serious about this fight from the very
beginning, and it looks like he''s about to get real!"
"Is this what the eleventh on Dragon List is capable of? It''s too terrifying."
"With his strength, it wouldn''t be a problem for him to enter the top ten after this match."
"Let''s see how Fade deals with Leighton. He is not like Egas. No matter how powerful Egas was, he
was only a ck Level martial artist. However, Leighton is a middle- stage Earth Level martial artist,
thus his strength is undeniably much stronger."
In the meantime, Fade watched calmly as Leighton was closing in on him. His facial expressions
were neutral and showed no emotions.
When Leighton was only inches away from him, he shook his head indifferently and sighed, "Is that
all you''ve got?" "You..." Leighton stared at him in disbelief. He scowled and gritted his teeth as he
shrieked, "You self- conceited piece of crap! Before you speak, let''s see how you defend this."
Fade shook his head harder. "Once I block your attack, you won''t be able to fight back anymore."
"How dare you..." Leighton was about to say something as he fumed with rage.
Just then, Fade''s right fist smashed right into Leighton''s chest with a loud thump.
It was only a simple punch, nothing fancy. However, when the punchnded on Leighton, he felt an
overwhelming force rushing towards him.
The impact hit like torrents of floodwater rushing down a mountain and engulfing him. Although he
saw Fade''s attacking, he was unable to fend off such a powerful force. He had no choice but to
clench his teeth and cross his arms in front of his chest to resist the deadly blow.
As soon as Fade''s fist came into contact with his arms, he heard a horrifying crack. The brute force
from the punch broke his arms instantly, but it didn''t stop there. Instead, it was aiming towards his
chest.
The agonizing pain of his broken arm, along with the terrifying surge of force, made his blood run
cold. "If such force was to hit my chest, my internal organs would explode, and I would just drop
dead," he thought to himself.
"Fade wants to kill me. He wants to kill me with only a single punch." A chill swept through him as
the thought arose in his mind. The overwhelming fear in him made him unable to reason. He
immediately opened his mouth and shouted, "I... admit..."
