Chapter 1979


    Among all sorts ofments, many of the viewers expressed their thoughts as the result was disappointing. They vented their dissatisfaction on the Inte.


    Some of the audience at the scene couldn''t sit still any longer. Without waiting for the final awards ceremony, they directly got up and prepared to leave the arena.


    Fade, who returned to the contestants'' seats, didn''t pay attention to the noisy discussions. Instead, he came to Joey''s side and said with a chuckle, "How was it? I told you I would win the championship!"


    "Of course. I believed in you!" Joey smiled. However, her face darkened with a hint of regret. "But I can''t advance, so I can''t go to thepetition with you. I..."


    Upon seeing this, Fade patted her head andforted her, "It''s okay. The so-calledpetition isn''t a big deal."


    "Besides, given my strength, I''ll definitely be able to win the championship abroad. There''s no need to worry," he added.


    "Well, you are the best. You''ll definitely win." She nodded seriously with a smile on her face.


    At that moment, the staff came over and told Fade about how the award ceremony would go.


    All of a sudden, a burst of majestic sound waves echoed throughout the entire Phoenix Stadium. "Fade,e out," the voice sounded.


    The voice resonated through the entire arena and directly drowned out the noises on the spot. It attracted everyone''s attention at once.


    Even the spectators, who were ready to leave, couldn''t help but stop and look in the direction of the sound.


    Under the focus of everyone''s gazes, a man in his thirties who was wearing a long, cyan- colored robe and had his hair tied in a bun walked out with a serious look on his face.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    At the sight of this man, quite a few spectators looked confused.


    "Who is this? Does anyone know him?"


    "I don''t know. However, he looks quite handsome and is my cup of tea," one of them said.


    "From the looks of it, he''s not on good terms with Master Chen! Maybe a fight is about to happen?"


    Forget the ordinary audience, even Fade was confused when he saw the man approach him. He didn''t know this man.


    "Are you Fade?" The man walked up to him. He looked him up and down as he asked with a serious face.


    "I am," Fade said faintly as he looked at the man without hesitation. He asked in a cold voice, "Who are you? Why are you looking for me?"


    "Who am I?" The man snorted heavily as his eyes sank. He looked at Fade with a fierce look. It was as if he wanted to eat him alive.


    At that moment, Galeno came to Fade from the podium. He looked at the man in front of him and said in a low voice, "Laverick, this isn''t a good time to make trouble. You should go back now."


    "Laverick!" Fade thought to himself.


    His heart thumped as soon as he heard the name. He looked at the man opposite him. He thought of something and said, "Are you a disciple of the Zhao family?"


    Fade still remembered that as soon as he killed Elijah and Donnigan, Jaguar had speciallye to him and warned him that there was a Zhao family disciple who had been cultivating in a Heaven Level sect since they were young. He just wanted to remind Fade not to be too reckless.


    From the looks of it, Laverick was likely that person.


    As expected, Laverick''s response proved Fade right. "Donnigan is my uncle and Elijah is my grandfather,"


    "I see." Upon hearing this, Fade couldn''t help but narrow his eyes.


    Galeno shouted again and said to Laverick in a deep voice, "Laverick, I''ll


    say it again. Fade is the of


    the preliminary round and will


    represent the country at the


    competition! He''ll be your teammate in the future. Don''t do anything stupid."


    Laverick sneered and said to Galeno, "Master Zhu, I haven''t done anything yet. What do you mean when you say that? Are you threatening me? We, the Tianwu n, are not to be threatened."


    "I''m just telling you, don''t let your eyes be blinded by hatred and revenge. That''s because hatred affects the overall situation." Galeno''s serious words sounded like a warning.


    However, Laverick smiled. "Master


    Zhu, you''re being overly sensitive. I didn''t mean that. I''m just here to watch the fight. I heard that Master Fade has won the championship. Hence, I''m itching topete with him," he said.


    Soon after that, even before Galeno could make a sound, Laverick immediately opened his mouth, "Fade, I''m going to challenge you, the champion of the preliminaries. Do you dare to ept my challenge?"


    His loud voice once again spread through the entire arena. It suddenly sparked a lot of discussion among the audience.


    "What''s going on? Who is this person? Why does he suddenly want to challenge Fade?"


    "It seems like he has a grudge against Fade!" "They''ve spoken a lot just now. Perhaps there''s more to that," someone else said.


    Everyone continued to talk about it. Their interest had been aroused by curiosity. At that moment, the atmosphere was enthusiastic once again.


    At the same time, upon hearing Laverick''s challenge, Galeno''s face turned serious. He red fiercely at him and said, "Laverick, I''ve already told you not to act recklessly. You..."


    "Master Zhu, I''m not messing around. Martial artists challenging one another are the mostmon things in the martial arts world. Was there anything wrong with my actions?" Laverick asked in return.


    Est


    Galeno was about to speak when Dannon suddenly appeared with a faint smile. "Master Zhu, Laverick a disciple of the Tianwu n. It''s better not to interfere in the affairs of other sects in the Martial Arts League," he said.


    "Dannon, what do you mean by that?" Galeno''s face darkened as he red at him.


    Dannon''s expression was indifferent. "I don''t mean anything else. You''re thinking too much, Master Zhu," he said.


    At that moment, Laverickughed coldly and theugh echoed throughout the entire arena. He said, "Could it be that the dignified Master Chen, the champion of the preliminaries, doesn''t dare to ept my challenge?"


    What happened there attracted all the attention of the audience. Especially when Dannon said that Laverick was a disciple of the Tianwu n. It significantly caused a lot of noise within the crowd.


    "A disciple of the Tianwu n. That is one of the disciples of the four Heaven Level Sects. I didn''t expect them to appear here," the crowd said.


    "I heard that the Heaven Level sects are all high and mighty. They don''t usually participate in ordinary martial artists'' affairs. Why did they appear this time? Do they also want to challenge Fade?"


    "Could it be because of the spot in the preliminaries?" Another person asked.


    "You think too much. In the Heaven Level n, everyone has their own spot in the selection. Both spots are offered to those chosen by the Heaven Level sects themselves," a third exined.


    "If it''s not a spot, then what is it for? Is it a personal grudge?"


    Just as everyone was discussing and guessing, some insiders seemed to have identified Laverick on the Inte.


    He was one of the core disciples of the Heaven Level Sect and he was extremely strong. He had reached the middle stage of the Heaven Level. Besides, he ranked 50th on the Divine Dragon List.
