Chapter 622
If the man had only defeated one opponent, others might have considered it
was due to his luck. However, defeating several dozen opponents nonstop could only mean
that he was an incredibly powerful individual.
Thanks to that, the man finally earned some recognition from the crowd.
“Who is this guy? He’s so strong!”
“A man dressed in green and good at using a spear? Don’t tell me he’s the person who rose to fame in
the martial world recently by challenging strong fighters–Verdant Phantom?”
“What? Verdant Phantom? I heard that even Geoffrey Vaughn, who’s in the top twenty of The Heavenly
Immortals, lost to him!”
“He defeated someone as strong as Geoffrey Vaughn? He’s a monster!”
Everyone was shocked to hear his nickname. After all, the name Verdant Phantom
had been gathering attention, especially after the man defeated Geoffrey Vaughn. However, since
he never appeared in public, few knew what he looked like.
Everyone was surprised to learn that he would show up. They were even more shocked to see him cha
llenging Balerno’s martial arts so openly.
“It’s your turn now, Terry Doyle!” Verdant Phantom lifted
his spear and pointed its tip in Terry’s direction, turning everyone’s attention to thetter.
“Verdant Phantom is so strong. I wonder if Terry will win.”
“Terry Doyle is ranked thirteenth on The Heavenly Immortals, while Verdant Phantom was able to defea

t someone who’s on the top twenty of the same list. It’s hard to guess who might win.”
“It seems like Terry Doyle finally met his match!”
The crowd gossiped nervously.
“Why? Aren’t you going to ept my challenge? Or do you n to run away and hide?” Verdant
Phantom taunted.
“How
interesting.” Terry chuckled and gradually approached the tform. “I don’t know where you’re from, bu
t you should at least let me warm up, right?”
“Warm up?” Verdant Phantom snorted. “You sure talk big for
someone who’s about to meet their demise.”
“Because of you? As if.” Terry calmly stood up with his hands sped behind his back.
“Hmph! I’ve already defeated countless martial artists on The Heavenly Immortals. You’re
nothing more than a stepping
stone for my journey to reach the top of the list!” Verdant Phantom dered confidently.
No one rebutted his arrogant words after they had witnessed his strength earlier.
“Don’t tell
me you think you’re on par with me just because you defeated Geoffrey Vaughn?” Terry smirked conde
scendingly. “The gap between each rank on The Heavenly Immortals is like a river. Compared to me, th
ose that you defeated are about seven ranks lower than me, and that makes the gap
between the two of us as vast as the ocean.”
“Those standards don’t apply to me. With my spear alone, I’ll defeat every single
one of you!” Verdant Phantom smirked.
“You sure are a reckless fellow. Well, I hope you don’t disappoint meter,” Terry responded calmly.
“Enough with the chit–chat. Choose your weapon!”
Verdant Phantom swung around, exuding a fierce aura.

“My weapon? Pfft. I don’t need one against you.” Terry’s hands remained behind his back, and his nonc
hnt attitude showed how little he cared about his opponent.
“Since you seem keen to die, why don’t I give you a hand?” With a stomp, Verdant Phantom
shot toward Terry with his spear in his grasp.
There was a glint as the spear thrust forward, its movements charged with power thanks to the true ene
rgy supplied to it. The unmatched speed and power left everyone in awe.
The tip of the
spear tore through the air, leaving a shadow behind. There was even a long gouge on the ground from
where the de had been dragged past.
“What terrifying skills!”
“Terry Dole is in danger now!”
Everyone silently feared for Terry. They also realized that Verdant Phantom had been holding back agai
nst them earlier.
