Inferno did not expect what he did to backfire.He even got beat up.He touched his swollen eye and wanted to tell Sterling to get lost.Suddenly, Chase stopped him. “Wait, where's Myra?”“She’s undergoing the assessment,” Inferno replied humbly.“You know what to do this time, right?” Chase looked at him, a half smile on his face.“Of course!”“Go now. Take good care of Myra for me.”Chase waved his hand, and Inferno ran to the assessment venue as if he had been granted amnesty.Finn walked in at this moment. “Boss, I’ve lined up all the recruits. Shall we head over now?”“No rush.”Chase lifted his head to look at the sun. Then, he shook his head and said, “Tell them to do a ten-mile run first.”Finn was stunned after he heard that. However, when he recalled that this was an assessment, he turned around and made arrangements.…20 young people stood tall with their heads held high, chests out, and eyes fixed ahead on the vast training ground.Even though they were unde
“Talk!”“My… My name is Sterling Wallace!”Finn said sternly, “Sterling Wallace? Don’t you even know how to reply? Is there something wrong with your brain?”“Sir, I… I was in the bathroom,” Sterling quickly explained.Finn did not expect him to reply so honestly. He gave Sterling an eerie smile. “Went to the bathroom, did you? Step out of the line!”Sterling quickly walked to the front as everyone looked at him pitifully.“Give me 50 push-ups!” Finn ordered stoically.Sterling’s face turned green when he heard this.50 sit-ups?He could not even do ten!Sterling had always lived a comfortable life and had never trained before. All his stamina was used to lay on top of women.Finn said in a grim voice, “Do you have any objections? Get out if you aren’t willing to do it. Basalt doesn’t need useless good-for-nothings. We don’t need men who disobey military orders!”“No, I have no objections.”Sterling winced and quickly got to the floor. He began to do his push-ups.He was
Sterling was the one who looked forward to meeting the chief instructor the most.He knew that he had performed horribly just now. It was highly possible that he would be eliminated.If he managed to get into the Chief Instructor Collins’ good graces, he might stand a chance to continue at Basalt.Vince could not wait to meet the chief instructor as well.His fists were clenched.If the Watersons were able to get acquainted with Chief Instructor Collins, they would have a powerful ally.Once that happened, they could destroy the Wallaces just like that!As for Myra and Chase, it would be easy for him to have them dead.Vince got excited at this thought.The sound of slow footsteps was heard, and everyone perked up their ears. They held their breaths and looked straight ahead. They did not dare to move at all.It felt like every step was stomping on their hearts. Everyone’s blood pressure went up from that feeling.When Chase got nearer, Finn immediately jogged over to him an
Chase gave the order, “Throw him out!”Finn immediately instructed his subordinates to drag Sterling out.Vince also knelt heavily on the ground. He kept bowing at Chase as he said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Collins. I shouldn’t have offended you. Please show mercy.”There was regret on his face.If he had known who Chase really was, he would never have set his eyes on Myra no matter how brazen he was.Of course, he would never have dared stir up trouble with Chase.Vince wanted to slap himself at the thought of how he had planned to take revenge on Chase.“I thought you would've dialed back on your actions that night at the party after I taught you a lesson, Vince Waterson.“Yet, you decided to bring your men and barge into the Wallace's villa in an attempt to take revenge against me.”Chase’s tone was cold. “A petty person like you who's filled with grudges and has a lecherous mind should be severely punished!“Take him away and lock him up. I’ll deal out his punishment later!”Vinc
Sterling looked at everyone’s expectant faces. He wanted to shout out loud, 'Chief Instructor Collins is actually Chase Collins!'However, he swallowed those words when they were right at his lips.It was not that he did not want to tell them.When he was thrown out, someone warned him not to reveal Chase’s identity or he would be executed!This was an order given by the top brass in Basalt!Chase’s identity had to be kept strictly under wraps before the appointment ceremony.It was because beneath the surface of their calm country laid a sinister layer of threats. Many of their enemies’ spies and powerful fighters were hidden in the dark.Once Chase’s identity was revealed, it would bring him nothing but trouble.Agatha stamped her feet impatiently when she saw Sterling hemming and hawing. “Tell us, quick.”Sterling hesitated before deciding to lie, “Actually, I only managed to glimpse the side of Chief Instructor Collins’ face.”“The side of his face?”Everyone was taken a
Agatha was stunned!Every Wallace was stunned as well.Did they hear this wrong?Myra had actually been accepted into Basalt?How was that possible?Sterling was the only one who looked bitter.Myra was the chief instructor’s sister. It would be a joke if she was not accepted into Basalt.Renee looked the most upset among everyone.Her face was pale, and she was about to explode from jealousy.Renee had always looked down on Myra. To her, Myra was just a wild woman who grew up outside the family. Even though she was a Wallace, Myra could never compare to Renee.However, it was true that Myra had joined Basalt.Renee could not accept this.“Impossible! That can’t be possible!”She was angered and started roaring hysterically, “How… How did she manage to join Basalt?!”“Are you questioning me?” Iris immediately stared coldly at Renee.Renee fell sitting to the ground. She shook her head in fright. “I… I would never dare do that!”Iris grunted coldly and said to Myra, “We’
Everyone was stunned to hear Sterling’s words.Agatha thought she had heard wrong. “What did you just say, Sterling?”“Grandma, I was expelled by Basalt,” Sterling said with an ugly smile.“What?”Agatha almost passed out as she said agitatedly, “How did this happen? How?”Every member of the Wallaces looked like they had just swallowed a bug.They had thought that the Wallaces would be able to prosper after Sterling got accepted into Basalt.Who knew that they had been flung back to hell in a blink of an eye?Sterling glanced carefully at Chase. “I… I performed too badly while in training, and the chief instructor expelled me himself…”Agatha coughed up blood and passed out on the spot.“Grandma!” “Madam Johnson!” The Wallaces were in a frenzy, and there was a huge commotion among them.Chase turned away and said to Myra, “Let’s go, Myra.”Myra left with Chase only after making sure that Agatha was safely taken away by everyone in a car.…Back at the Watersons' villa
“What are you doing here?” Chase frowned and asked.“Chief… Chief Instructor Collins, can.. Can I have a moment with you?” Sterling asked carefully.“Come inside.” Chase nodded.“No, it’s fine. It’s better that I talk to you out here.”Sterling shook his head and suddenly knelt in front of Chase. “I acted too arrogantly before, Chief Instructor. Please forgive me for it.”He had been feeling constant fear since he found out Chase’s identity.Even though Chase had expelled him from Basalt, he was still fearful of Chase coming after him for revenge.That was why Sterling rushed over to see Chase immediately after taking Agatha to the hospital. He wanted to apologize to Chase.“You’re overthinking this. I’ve already dealt out my punishment for you. I won’t hold anything against you now.”Chase shook his head and continued, “Moreover, a person like you isn’t worth wasting my time on.”His words sounded harsh, but Sterling was greatly relieved. “Thank you for showing mercy on me.”
Ford had always been a carefree person, but today his expression seemed off!"It was such an important match, and you were in the semifinals. How could there be no recording? Ford, don't try to deceive me!" Wren sternly warned Ford."If you deceive me, you'll get a spank—" Before he could finish, Ford covered his mouth. "Father, stop! I'll show you when we get back!"Compared to being spanked, Ford preferred letting his father see his strange cries during the match."Holy Lord Wren, I have a recording of your son's battle with Chase. Would you like it?" an unfamiliar female voice called out."Who's this troublemaking woman? When everyone else remained silent, why did she have to make herself conspicuous?"If I'm humiliated because of this, you'll regret it later, lady!"Ford's mind churned like tumultuous waves. He turned to see it was Tiana, the Saintess of Emerald Lake Holy Land!"I don't recall ever offending you," he thought bitterly.This was problematic. Though he was
Ford naturally would not mention that the fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique he had blocked earlier was considerably weaker than the current display.This was the art of conversation."That's not even his ultimate move?" Wren asked in surprise."No. He learned this from watching the Saintess Jade from Modest Lady Holy Land during their battle. He simply replaced it with his own fire-system vital energy and fireball technique," Ford answered with some admiration.It was well known that as the most talented Saint since the founding of Sky Dragon Holy Land, Ford typically mastered most techniques on his first attempt.He essentially memorized secret manuals after just one reading and was considered one of the most intelligent and insightful dragons in history.However, even for top-tier techniques like the Thousand Eyes and Flowers, one would certainly need some practice time to master it.Yet Chase had fought Jade just once, and seen her use the technique only once.
Chase stepped forward, standing in midair, and swept his right hand.The fire-element Thousand Eyes and Flowers technique activated, sending countless extreme fireballs like a rain of bullets toward Fallon and his group.The quantity, speed, and power far exceeded his previous attacks, yet Chase only utilized fifty 50% of his vital energy!Fallon's group furrowed their brows, their bodies tense as if facing a formidable enemy. The ancient Nefarious Spirit Giant Ape manifested behind them, crossing its arms in a defensive posture.Fallon's vital energy circulated at extreme speed, pushing its strength to the limit. His normally transparent vital energy shield became faintly visible, like glass emitting light.Carla muttered incantations as wisps of green smoke emerged, with faint green light circling around her body.Seeing this, Tack and Norm understood: Fallon and Carla were not deceiving them but were genuinely using their full strength to counter Chase's attack!The two were
"No way? Chase actually had another trick up his sleeve—he can still win the championship?""Tsk, tsk. Such skill and courage. Now he dares to challenge two city lords and their helpers alone. Those two dressed in red and green were also fighting toe-to-toe with the city lords earlier. This is going to be quite a show!""Damn it, it's like a furnace in here! Everyone, spread out unless you want to become roasted pigs!""Who are you calling a pig?""That's just a metaphor!"...Chase was shocked by his own attack. Yes, he surprised himself.He had only used 50% of his vital energy, intending to intimidate his opponent while testing the strength of this top villain from the nether realm.To others, the wall of fire appeared to rise gradually. In his perception, however, it manifested instantly.The gradual rise was because the power was too great, expanding bit by bit to accommodate more fire eyes.His control seemed fine, so why did it feel like he could not stop?After exami
Carla thought Chase must have an amazing sense of understanding and enlightenment. He was able to see through the essence of the opponent's technique every time he fought and used it. He was a genius.Facing Chase directly made her understand what real intimidation felt like.She was also Chase's target as she was standing next to Fallon.As the top mind and soul cultivator in the nether realm, Carla knew that there was no escape from Chase.Chase would immediately react the moment she made a slight movement.Carla had never felt such pressure before.It was terrifying.Fallon's heart sank when facing Chase.He had been careless.Chase was harder to deal with than Carla, Tack, and Norm combined.Fallon knew how powerful Carla was.The Evil Shadow Sect was good at using the mind and soul in fights, but they were not powerful enough when it came to direct attacks. The Nefarious Deity Sect was good at body refinement, corpse refining, and using Nefarious Deity to strengthen the
Chase watched as Fallon chatted with others and did not answer his question.He was furious with Fallon for ignoring him.Chase immediately used Thousand Eyes and Flowers, which he had learned from Jade. A firewall slowly burned behind him. The eye of the fire kept shooting flames as it slowly gathered more flames.The air around it was like an oven as the temperature shot up continuously."Step back."Chase warned Willow and the others.Willow and Walter were the only ones who knew about his sisters.They took several steps back to avoid the range of Chase's Thousand Eyes and Flowers. Willow and Walter showed Yara and Lisa images of Chase's sisters to explain the situation."These two sisters of Chase are really beautiful. The one in white looks adorable while the one in purple looks so dashing. Tsk, tsk. I had no idea he had such good fortune."Yara praised Olivia and Hanna when he saw their images.Willow and Lisa felt a little jealous. "They're all right."They replied w
They objected to Carla and Fallon's relationship from the very start.Both of them were happy to see them fight.If Carla could break up with Fallon, they might consider forgiving Carla for setting up the Severance Formation against them.After all, it would be good for her if she learned her lesson.Tack and Norm waited to see how Fallon would handle this.Norm knew nothing about this, but Tack was sure of one thing. Chase's sisters were in his hands.Besides them, one of Chase's seven sisters was in the hands of a Supreme Elder from the Nefarious Deity sect.Fallon had been wondering about Chase's sisters when Carla suddenly accused him of this. He could not help sighing quietly.What did he do to deserve this?"Would you believe me if I told you I don't know who his sisters are?" Fallon said bitterly."Believe you? If I'm right about this, Chase Collins is working with Willow because he wants to find his sisters. He already has the Nefarious Deity Sect locked down as the p
At the tournament venue, Chase watched as Yara held Willow's hand while Willow was holding Lisa's hand. All three of them came toward him in a line.He looked at them strangely.Yara had forgotten that she was dressed as a man, and it looked quite striking to be holding two women's hands.The spectators and Yara's die-hard fans burned with jealousy when they saw their ideal man being close to Willow, who should know better. They became agitated as all sorts of speculations crossed their minds. They started to curse at Willow."Who's that slut? How dare she seduce Yara?""Tear her apart right now! Go on! What are you waiting for?""Vixen! She's shameless. How could she be good enough for Yara when she's so ugly?""Tsk, tsk. Could she have drugged him? Why does Yara look excited? There's no way he could be interested in a mediocre woman like her when he's such a gorgeous specimen.""Look at the three of them running toward Chase Collins. Is this some sort of new play? Looks excit
Every powerhouse around them must have tried to sense it and come to the same conclusion as her.None of them dared to act rashly.All the top fighters from the sixth level have gathered there to quietly watch Chase, the Chosen One, enter the Holy Path.However, he told everyone that he was waiting for others.All of them had no choice but to wait with him.The people he was waiting for had finally arrived.Yara appeared hurriedly and entered the tournament ring along with Willow and Lisa."Who's that good-looking man?"Tack asked Fallon.Fallon and Carla looked at each other. He answered in exasperation, "That's Yara Fries, who is actually a woman."Tack and Norm did not believe him. Yara may have exceptional looks and could be viewed as a formidable character, but there was no doubt that he was a man.They exclaimed at the same time, "A woman?" "Yes. Yara possesses the phoenix bloodline. Every time Yara goes through the Rising, he will go through a gender change and his
