Chapter 449 Ivan stood on the tform with his arms crossed letting out a disdainful snort that showed hisplete contempt .


    Andrew , what the hell are you doing ? Jerry shouted .


    Andrew gave him a cold nce and replied , Since youre badly injured and have already .


    embarrassed the Rhodes family , you should stay quiet .


    Jerrys fury triggered his stomach wound , making him wince in pain .


    Andrew , you cant possibly beat this guy , he hissed through clenched teeth .


    Once you step into that ring , your life is in your own hands do you understand that ? He had seen many reckless young men like this before all courage and no wisdom .


    In his experience , they usually ended up as corpses .


    Andrew , weve warned you multiple times not to throw your life away ! one of the bodyguards shouted .


    If you get yourself killed , thats one thing , but youll be putting Ms.


    Rhodes in a terrible position ! Get lost youre not as important as you think you are ! The Rhodes family bodyguards were furious , openly scolding Andrew .


    Even though they were trembling with fear , none dared to act recklessly In their eyes , someone like Andrew should have been hiding in the crowd like a scared mouse .


    Stepping into the spotlight like this was nothing short of suicide .


    Andrew turned to Lauren with a faint smile .


    Ms.


    Rhodes , it seems your people dont believe in me .


    But what about you ? Do you trust me ? Lauren nodded firmly , her voice unwavering .


    I trust you , Dr.


    Lloyd , now and always .


    That was the answer he was looking for .


    Without another word , he strolled casually toward the ring .


    Jerry let out a long sigh and chuckled bitterly .


    Miss , youre sending this guy to his death .


    What are you thinking ? Laurens expression hardened .


    Jerry , youre already badly hurt .


    Its best if you stop talking .


    She nced at him and added , Andrew just saved your life .


    Instead of thanking him , youre trying to drag him down .


    Thats not fair .


    Jerry gritted his teeth and retorted , Im trying to save him ! Do you realize how young he is ? Hes barely lived ! His bones are probably still soft ! He gestured toward the ring .


    That guys mastered internal martial arts to the point of killing effortlessly .


    One hit and Andrew will die instantly !  Chapter 449 Lauren crossed her arms and huffed .


    I dont see at that way .


    Though she silently admitted Ivans skills were extraordinary , her faith in Andrew never wavered .


    Ivan loomed over Andrew as he stepped into the ring , his voice dripping with disdain .


    Kid , tell me why youre here .


    Is your life so miserable that youre looking for a quick end ? Standing casually across from him , Andrew appearedpletely rxed .


    Ive already said I dont want to fight .


    He paused before adding , But I wont let Ms.


    Rhodes lose .


    Ivan sneered .


    Thats the reason youre willing to throw your life away ? Andrew shook his head .


    Youre not capable of hurting me , let alone taking my life .


    He met Ivans gaze , his voice calm yet confident .


    On the other hand , if I wanted to kill you , wouldnt be hard .


    The crowd erupted into mockingughter .


    Rodney , Dean , and the Madde Martial Academy students could not contain themselves .


    Did you hear that ? He said killing Mr.


    Lincoln wouldnt be hard ! What a clown ! Not just arrogant hes delusional ! I bet hes got some kind of mental illness .


    Mr.


    Lincoln , just knock him out with one punch ! Show him why our internal martial arts .


    reign supreme in Jayrodale ! Rodneys expression turned cold as he addressed Ivan .


    Mr.


    Lincoln , dont hold back .


    Whatever happens , the Madde Martial Academy will take responsibility !
