No matter what Cartley Yanagi said, Braydon Nealâs attitude didnât change.
To Braydon, the emperorâs throne was something that bound him for the rest of his life.
Once he agreed to Martial Emperor Yanagi and even Cartleyâs request, Braydon would be trapped in the capital for his entire life, and the deep palace courtyard was where he would live his entire life.
That was a life that Braydon had always resisted.
âBrother, the summit is about to start!â The little fool whispered.
âLetâs go. This Martial Artist Summit is destined to be exciting!â
Lester Crawford wouldnât miss such a grand event.
A place where geniuses of the same generation gathered was definitely the best place to verify oneâs martial arts skills.
For Cartley and the others, they didnât care about the ranking, and they didnât need to make a name for themselves at the summit.
Because Cartley had no lack of fame.
As a commander, he had hundreds of thousands of elites under him and held great power.
What he really wanted was nothing more than to verify his martial arts!
The four of them, childhood friends, were reunited today!
Lazlo Abbott was a Northern Army hidden agent, codenamed 101!
Lester was hidden agent 102.
Only the elites of Northern Army knew about these core secrets.
The top 100 of the Northern Armyâs hidden agents were all outside the borders.
However, at the Global Martial Artist Summit, hundreds of hidden agents would probably show up.
Jaziel Sherman, Korbyn Jessen, and the others would lead their teams to the Alpha Empire.
On the outskirts of the capital, a large crowd gathered at the circular venue.
The 80,000 capital garrison guards were all mobilized to maintain order.
Martial artists from various provinces were led by the capital garrison to search for their respective regionâs area.
Braydon and his group of five quietly arrived at the entrance of the venue.
Capital garrison governor Tristan Yandell led his troops to patrol the area. When he saw Braydon, he stepped forward and said, âCommander!â
âAll the garrison troops of the capital have been transferred here?â
Braydon frowned slightly. He stood at the entrance of the venue and felt that something was off.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThere are nearly 300,000 participants gathered here today,â Tristan Yandell said arrogantly. âOld Man Lowe is worried that this large number of people will cause chaos, so he asked me to lead the capital garrison here to maintain order!â
âThe responsibility of the capital garrison is to be responsible for the safety of the capital. If there is nothing major, they are not allowed to be transferred!â
Braydonâs tone turned cold, not listening to Tristanâs explanation.
Tristan stopped smirking and said with a serious expression, âThe capital cityâs martial artists will all be attracted to the summit. There shouldnât be anyone going to the city to cause trouble these few days, right?â
However, Braydonâs deep eyes were fixed on the noisy venue, and he felt a little uneasy.
This was his intuition!
Braydon felt that something big was about to happen.
This feeling was indescribable.
Perhaps it was because Braydon liked to be quiet, he was not used to being in a noisy venue where hundreds of thousands of martial artists were gathered.
Coincidentally, at this moment.
The second master of the Northern Army, Luther Carden, was sitting in a wheelchair on the high platform of the ring venue, chatting and laughing with Jonah Shaw and the others.
Lutherâs wristwatch was vibrating slightly, and the screen was flashing with a dark red light.
Three consecutive flashes.
SSS-rank top secret information!
Usually, secret messages sent by hidden agents were at most S-rank messages.
There were very few SSS-rank messages.
Unless it was a shocking event.
Lutherâs expression was calm. He looked at his wristwatch and personally opened this top-secret message.
Jonah and the others, who were standing at the side, all looked over. No one said anything else until they had seen the top-secret information projected by the wristwatch.
Swoosh!
Everyoneâs expression changed.
Westley Hader turned around and released a terrifying killing intent. âWhere is the capital garrison?â he shouted coldly.
Even though Westley was promoted to the capitalâs right duke and replaced Dominic Lowe as duke, his influence was still there!
âGreetings, Governor!â The 80,000 capital garrison guards immediately turned around and bowed in unison. They cupped their fists and shouted, âCapital Garrison Guards pay their respects to the governor!â
Westley was someone who had commanded 80,000 troops for several years.
With a single command, the 80,000 garrison troops followed him to the death.
Westleyâs expression was dark and cold. âWho allowed you to come to the venue? Return to the capital immediately. Seal off all the streets of the capital. No one is allowed to enter or leave!â
âYes, sir!â
The 80,000 garrison troops were urgently mobilized and ordered to return to the capital.
Syrus Yanagi, the seven-time champion, ignored the ban. The vitality behind him transformed into wings, and he quickly returned to the capital city.
Braydon, who was standing at the entrance of the venue, took out his military commander grade wristwatch.
The Northern King had the authority to access all information about the hidden agents.
Including the top-secret message just now.
After Braydon opened the message, he released his vitality, releasing a terrifying killing aura.
The watch on his hand exploded on the spot!
The little fool saw the words on the watch.
There was only one sentence.
âMartial Emperor has been poisoned, and his life is hanging by a thread.â
The news had been sealed off. It had been secretly sent out by a hidden agent in the depths of the palace.
Otherwise, even Braydon would be kept in the dark.
Dominic, Kieran Normand, and the others probably didnât receive the news.
Braydon turned around, leaving behind an afterimage. He was already hundreds of meters away.
Today, he was going to enter the capital!
âBrother, wait for me!â
Luke Yates quickly followed.
âBraydon, what happened?â Lazlo asked softly.
âBig Brother, Iâm afraid I canât host todayâs summit!â Braydonâs thin lips moved slightly as he replied.
âIâm here,â Lazlo replied calmly. âNothing will go wrong.â
Only then did Braydon leave with a peace of mind.
Immediately after, Lazlo stood in mid-air in the middle of the venue with his hands clasped behind his back. He smiled faintly like a spring breeze and attracted the attention of everyone present. His calm voice resounded throughout the entire venue. âToday, His Royal Highness the Garrison King has something to attend to. Iâm the deputy examiner of the examination and will take over the assessment!â
A sentence resounded throughout the venue.
Dominic, who was below, was dumbfounded.
Who was this guy?
The ring-shaped venue was suddenly filled with noise. More than half of the martial artists came from all provinces just to see the Northern Kingâs demeanor.
However, an unfamiliar youth had appeared today, and he was taking charge of the situation.
From the east side of the venue, a black-robed youth walked out. He stepped into the air and coldly questioned, âThe capital announced three months in advance that the chief examiner would be the Garrison King, His Highness Braydon Neal. Who do you think you are? How dare you try to preside over this summit!â
âI am a nobody!â
Lazlo smiled gently, as if he was not angry at all.
In the end, Dominic, who was below, instantly retracted his foot!
Kieran and Zavier Leach looked at each other. As expected, they didnât want to get involved in todayâs matter.
When Lazlo opened his mouth, he looked like a northerner.
Only those bad guys from the Northern Army would speak like that.
Anyone who was familiar with Braydon and the others knew that the elites of the Northern Army had a deep hatred for nameless people.
âA nobody dares to show off at such an important occasion?â The black-robed young man said disdainfully.
âPlease ask His Highness to come out!â
There was more than one opposer.
There were close to 300,000 participants.
How many people were there?
It was probably impossible to calculate!
After Lazlo announced the news, as many as thirteen people rose into the air and opposed Lazlo.
A young man who dared to oppose him in public must be a pinnacle with a powerful background.
âThere are hundreds of thousands of martial artists here, and only a few of you are doubting me?â Lazlo asked softly.
