“By the way, how is Lyle doing nowadays? Is it true that he’s learning how to forge weapons or formations and the like?” Declan was quite concerned about Lyle. They had made a bet, after all. It would be embarrassing if he lost to Lyle. More importantly, they had the same teacher. It would be a disgrace if he learned less than half of what Lyle did! “Lyle mentioned that he has learned quite a bit, and…” At this point, Poppy glanced at her teacher sheepishly, wondering if she should continue her unspoken words. Declan was curious and said, “Just speak your mind. There's no need to hesitate. I'm not a petty person.” Declan was quite gracious about such things. Although he wanted to win, he would only do it indisputably. Hearing that, Poppy forgot her worries and said, “Grand-teacher said that Lyle is making great progress and can learn many things easily. Learning formations and forging weapons at the same time is nothing to him.” Declan almost freaked out at Poppy’s no
The owner of the voice soon appeared in front of Philip. It was a group of eight that looked pretty imposing. They glared at Philip coldly as if peeved that Philip had stolen their prey. “Everything has to be done in turns. We saw this leopard first. When did it become your turn?” Philip sneered. The man standing in front of him was only a little over 1.5 meters tall. He looked very ugly with his seedy features, and his yellow teeth made Philip sick to the stomach. A sliver of grass dangled in the corner of the man’s mouth as if he was pretending to be suave. Maybe he thought he was quite dashing, but Philip felt disgusted. The others glared at Philip fiercely as if waiting for him to leave. “We finally found such a land of opportunities, but this guy wants to compete with us. What a joke!” “That’s right. It’s simply ridiculous to think that two little brats dare to compete with us for territory!” Everyone mocked Philip with disdain. In their opinion, Philip thought t
“Do you think the two of you can take us on?” The seedy short man wanted to deal with Philip. The others spread out, some dealing with Aslan while others targeted the leopard. If Philip was no match for them, he would be beaten severely and might even end up being at their disposal. “If you just want the beast, I can give it up to you.” Philip suddenly changed his tone as if he was backing off. Everyone was puzzled and wondered why Philip chose to compromise. Was he backing off because he thought they were too powerful? Although the short man could not figure out what was going on, he smiled brightly. “Hehe, why bother if you had expected this outcome? If you had been so sensible earlier, we wouldn’t have surrounded you.” He thought Philip was afraid of him, so he smiled brightly. Philip smiled and winked at Aslan. The two of them stepped aside. Aslan looked at Philip without a word. Aslan knew what Philip was thinking, so he simply watched the fun. Since Philip
Everyone turned their attention to Philip. They were so angry just now that they did not notice anything. The guy in front of them actually had a storage device, high-end stuff! “Hehe, kid, didn't anyone warn you not to flaunt your wealth? Since you chose not to hide it, don’t blame me for being merciless.” The short man wished he could strip Philip of everything. He was surprised to meet such a rich kid. “Wow, you guys are so smart to discover the key point right away,” Philip said with a smile. These people were not that stupid to realize the most important things so quickly. Philip did it on purpose. He wanted them to know he was rich so that they would take advantage of him. Philip could not maximize his interests without forcing them to reveal their trump cards. “How dare you be so arrogant?” The short man was very angry and charged at Philip. He raised his hand and slapped Philip on the face, trying to humiliate Philip most crudely. Philip smiled calmly at his
“He owns such powerful magical treasures on top of a storage device. This is wonderful!” The eight people chattered incessantly, not taking Philip seriously at all. Although Philip was powerful, he meant nothing to them. He was alone while they had eight people on their side. “Do you think the two of you can go against the eight of us?” The short man seemed confident of his victory. He looked at Philip with such longing that his eyes turned red. In his opinion, Philip was so strong because of his weapons. He would be nothing without those weapons. After all, Philip did not display a powerful practice level. Everyone thought he was just a rich kid. Maybe Philip spent a lot of money to buy treasures just to gain experience. Although Philip had destroyed their weapons, that did not mean they were out of weapons. Everyone had many spare weapons. After taking out their weapons, they rushed toward Philip excitedly. Philip found their unrelenting spirit unbelievable. “Yo
Philip was surprised to hear the short man’s background. “Oh, you’re quite influential. I couldn’t tell at all,” Aslan sneered. This guy was simply too noisy. More importantly, this guy ignored Aslan. Did he think Aslan was dispensable? However, Philip finally figured out why they dared to act so arrogantly. It turned out that they had strong backers. Despite that, Philip did not know anything about the Spada Guild. He was new to this world, after all. Looking at the other party’s reaction, however, the Spada Guild should be a pretty good establishment or he would not have revealed it so smugly. Nonetheless, it was a fool’s errand to intimidate Philip with a few words. Philip signaled Aslan. He could not be bothered to deal with these losers. Aslan nodded and sprang into action, appearing behind these losers in an instant. “How could you move so quickly?” The short man felt someone kicking him from behind before he could react. The next second, he saw his men flyi
“If you want to find out some information, I’ll tell you everything I know. “The Spada Guild is large and powerful in Imperial City. Your accent doesn’t sound local, so it’s normal if you haven’t heard of it. The Spada Guild is one of the five major guilds. Although not ranked at the top, it can rank third or fourth.” Philip was surprised that the short man knew quite a lot. “Wow, I’m surprised to hear that the Spada Guild is so powerful. I thought it was just a trashy place,” Philip said nonchalantly as if he was quite knowledgeable in this matter. Hearing that, the short man’s mood changed for the better, and he felt full of himself. It turned out that Philip treated him so badly earlier because he was simply too ignorant. He had no idea what was going on, so it was reasonable that he was unafraid of this guild. “Since you know everything, you should let me go. My brother is really…” The short man wanted to emphasize his brother's power when he was knocked unconscious wit
Philip stepped forward and reached for it doubtfully. It was quite hot to the touch. “Philip, what’s that? It’s quite scary.” Aslan looked at the scary thing in puzzlement. Philip was baffled by the shiny item on the ground too. Of course, Aslan was not referring to the item's appearance but its vibes. Philip grabbed the shiny little stone amid his confusion. Although it was hot to the touch, Philip made use of his exotic flame and managed to grab it. His exotic flame seemed to have a powerful taming effect, and Philip quickly took control of the stone. “This is weird. I feel like the stone is emitting some unfriendly vibes as if warning others to keep their distance.” Aslan glanced at Philip curiously, feeling baffled. Why would such a terrifying thing appear in this ordinary beast forest? The presence of this small stone was so strong that even Aslan was terrified. “Don’t worry. Let me take a good look at it.” Philip studied the stone but could not figure it out. He
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
