Chapter 1812

Penulis: Only For You
George let out a bitter smile. "If, and I'm saying if, something happens to me, I need you to keep an eye on the Keller family."

Andrew's expression turned solemn. "Mr. Keller Senior, you can count on me, completely. But I have to speak my mind about Hank. I think you need to approach this carefully. If you act recklessly, the Keller family could face serious consequences."

George waved it off. "It's fine, I know what I'm doing. Hannah, show Andy your back."

Hannah, face streaked with tears, glanced hesitantly at Andrew. After a moment, she blushed and slowly lifted the back of her shirt.

Andrew's eyes immediately narrowed in shock.

Hannah's entire back was covered with red welts and wounds. The marks were raised and swollen, and with just one glance, Andrew could tell they were from a leather belt that had been used to beat her mercilessly.

Most of her skin had been torn apart completely.

"Hank did all this?" Andrew's voice turned ice-cold.

Hannah wiped her tears and

    Calvin said, patting Terry back with a smug grin. "Don't worry. I've already pulled some strings for you. No matter how you perform, you're getting in as one of Mr. Thornton's inner disciples. You're set for life, kid!" Terry looked to be in his early 20s, full of arrogant energy. His hair was dyed a loud cherry red, he had a nose ring, and his whole vibe screamed street punk. He snapped, "I've told you like 50 times already. Stop patting my head in public! Why the hell can't you get it through your thick skull? Hands off. It's my time to shine!" He strutted into the center of the hall, chest puffed up, and took the spot right next to Zachary. Then, he shot Zachary a sideways glance, filled with disdain and contempt. Calvin beamed with proud satisfaction, saying to those around him. "Terry is definitely going to blow everyone away today!" Someone sneered coldly. "Mr. Peck Senior, everyone knows exactly what Terry is capable of. Coming here to participate in the selection toda

    The one who suddenly interrupted was a tall, imposing man in black with a cold, stern face. Zachary's expression grew serious. "Captain, this man is called Henry, and he's also from the Fischer family. He's the top dog from the Fischer family stationed at this headquarters." Andrew made a sound of acknowledgement and said coolly, "His physical techniques should be very solid." Zachary smiled bitterly. "Henry is the most domineering and fierce person in the Fischer family. What's even more terrifying is that he has reached the pinnacle of martial arts. There are rumors that he once challenged Jerome, wanting to replace him. "But later, by the narrowest of margins, he lost to Jerome. However, that was five years ago. Now, Henry has probably improved significantly and likely has the strength to shake Jerome's position as the leader." At that moment, Jerome, seated at the front, asked calmly, "Henry, what is it you need?" Henry stood there, arms crossed, face still indifferent

    Looking at Andrew, Zachary proactively explained, "Mr. Thornton might hold a powerful position and sit high on the Titan List, but he's actually a pretty down-to-earth guy. Even outer disciples used to be able to see him pretty easily, and he's never one to put on airs or show up late. So whatever's going on today is definitely a first." Andrew had also heard of Jerome's reputation, knowing he was widely respected. It was not just because of his martial arts skills, but also his approachable nature and elder-like demeanor. There were even rumors that when Jerome was young and traveling the martial world, he was bullied by some brat. The kid had climbed up a tree, and when Jerome passed underneath, he pissed right on Jerome's head. Not only did Jerome not get angry, but he wiped the urine from his face and gave the kid in the tree a thumbs up, praising the child's boldness and spirit, saying he would surely achieve great things in the future. Just then, the noisy hall suddenly

    More guests were arriving at the great hall. Andrew and Zachary did not draw attention to themselves and simply found a quiet corner to stand in. Those who came later were seated according to rank and status, with the powerful and renowned taking seats in the front rows on both sides of the hall. The small fry naturally stood in the back. People in the martial world loved this kind of unspoken hierarchy. It was how they showed rank and status. Zachary pointed toward a stocky man with a round belly who looked like he was in his third trimester. "Captain, that's Riker Lamar, the leader of the Hidden Dragons." Andrew looked over and saw Riker sitting squarely in his seat. He was short and broad, with an oddly oversized head that made him look almost cartoonish. Though he looked comical, his slightly closed eyes occasionally flashed with sharp light. Anyone could tell he was a ruthless expert who had mastered internal martial arts. Zachary pointed toward another guest and grin

    Andrew raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "So, you've got ties to that Fischer family, too? I might've underestimated you." Zachary grinned. "I mean, sure, we share the same last name, but bloodlines matter. There's close, and there's distant. I'm barely connected to the main Fischer family in Blumedale anymore. My branch of the Fischers is to the Blumedale dynasty what a dirt farmer was to back then." Andrew found this amusing and teased, "So, you're admitting you're just a dirt farmer?" Zachary replied with slight pride, "There's nothing I'm ashamed to admit about that. I've gotten to where I am today through my own efforts and the training you gave us back in the day. It has nothing to do with the Fischer family powerhouse in Blumedale." Andrew hummed in acknowledgment and asked, "Mr. Thornton is a top-ranked figure on the Titan List. His combat power is genuinely martial saint level, capable of controlling an entire region. How could some Eastonian masters manage to poison and

    The two men took a cab and arrived at the Southern Martial Union headquarters established in Goldridge. As the holy land in the hearts of all martial artists throughout southern Holtrien, this headquarters was built to be truly magnificent and spectacular. Goldridge was a historic cultural city and one of Holtrien's top-tier metropolises, which was exceptionally prosperous. The fact that they could occupy such a large complex of buildings in this bustling city showed just how significant the Southern Martial Union headquarters was. Zachary explained, "The three major factions from Gabo Creek, the Crimson Alliance, Hidden Dragons, and Onyx Serpents, basically all have their headquarters here." Andrew's heart stirred. "Is the leader of Hidden Dragons named Riker Lamar?" Zachary nodded with surprise. "Yes. I heard he's already at the peak of martial king level, close to breaking through to martial saint. He's quite famous. Captain, do you know him?" Andrew smiled. "I wouldn't s
