Facing Conrad Schroederâs arrogance, William Richardson had no solution.
He couldnât trouble the Schroeder Family, and the Martial Arts Association didnât give him face either.
For a moment, Uncle William was full of worry.
The next day.
Ethan Smith was still locked up in this small room.
But he could clearly feel that he was not the only one being imprisoned here.
âIt seems many martial artists are trapped here.â Ethan murmured under his breath.
He couldnât help but worry inwardly.
If the Schroeder Family really decides to have the Martial Arts Association eliminate him, what will he do?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âRun?â Ethan frowned.
If he escapes, he might never be able to return to Pyro again, and how can he go to the Capital City to marry Emily Taylor openly? But if he doesnât escape, dying here would be even worse.
Just then, footsteps echoed from outside.
In a short while, a light turned on.
Several people were standing at the door.
At the forefront were Gage Mcbride, along with Uncle Armando, the chief steward of the Schroeder Family.
Seeing these two people, Ethanâs face instantly turned cold.
Uncle Armando approached the cell, standing outside with a cold smile, âEthan Smith, whatâs the point of defeating the family head? Youâre still just a prisoner.â
Ethan replied coldly, âConrad Schroeder really has some backbone, is this the number one person in Chuzzle? Just this much ability, huh?â
Uncle Armando laughed heartily, âThe winner takes all! As long as itâs successful, who will remember your tactics?â
Ethan suddenly stood up, glaring at Uncle Armando, âI shouldâve killed Conrad Schroeder!â
âHeh, you donât have that chance now,â Uncle Armando smirked.
He leaned against one side of the cell, saying sinisterly, âIâm telling you, after you die, everyone whoâs relying on you will suffer the wrath of the Schroeder Family! â
âIâll make sure your friends and family beg for life yet canât find death!â Uncle Armando said viciously.
Hearing this, Ethan was filled with uncontrollable rage!
He suddenly released his spiritual power, and his palm struck Uncle Armandoâs chest in mid-air!
With this one palm, Uncle Armando was sent flying!
If an ordinary person took this hit, they would surely die!
But after all, Uncle Armando was a Grandmaster. Although his cultivation was abolished, the Grandmasterâs body was still there.
So, he only spat out a mouthful of blood!
âEthan Smith, youâre really courting death!â Uncle Armando wiped the blood from his mouth.
He turned to Gage Mcbride and said, âPresident Mcbride, transfer him to the public cell.â
Gage Mcbride smiled, âNo problem.â
After that, he waved his hand, and two Grandmasters entered from outside the door.
âTransfer prisoner Ethan Smith to the public cell.â Gage Mcbride ordered.
âYes.â
Two people escorted Ethan, walking deep into the darkness.
âEthan Smith, Iâm telling you, your file will soon be ready, and you will die without a doubt!â Uncle Armandoâs voice came from behind.
Ethan remained silent, clenching his fists, the anger in his heart nearly consuming him!
âGet in there!â
They arrived at the public cell.
The public cell was extremely large; it would be more appropriate to call it an abandoned wasteland rather than a cell.
Here, there were no beds; everyone slept on the ground.
At a glance, there were at least several dozens of martial artists in the public cell!
And the strongest among them were even on the verge of reaching the Grandmaster Realm!
âThe Martial Arts Association is really not that simple.â Ethan slightly frowned.
He casually found a spot to sit down, then closed his eyes and began to meditate.Ethan Smithâs mind raced, thinking of countless solutions, but none worked.
âAm I really going to die hereâ¦â A glimmer of despair flashed across Ethanâs face.
His emotions became increasingly unstable, as if they could burst at any moment!
âNo, no, I canât die here!â Ethan gritted his teeth, and a dazzling light burst from his body!
He stood up, looked at the exit of the cage, and suddenly exploded with energy!
âKid, I advise you to give up that idea.â
Just then, someone suddenly reminded him.
âAlthough the Martial Arts Association is a civilian organization, it holds a special place in the hearts of martial artists worldwide. If you forcibly break out of the cage, youâll be their enemy.â The person continued.
Ethanâs eyebrows furrowed.
Obviously, the Martial Arts Association was akin to an official organization in the hearts of martial artists.
No one was willing to offend them.
Ethanâs breath began to stabilize.
He took a deep breath and murmured, âMaybe thereâs still a chance. Uncle
William and the others will definitely find a way.â
With that thought, Ethan withdrew his aura, sitting back down. At that moment, a commotion suddenly erupted not far away.
âYou son of a bitch, kneel down for me!â
Turning to look, Ethan saw four or five martial artists surrounding a young man.
All four or five of them were at the Grandmaster Realm, with extraordinary strength!
However, the young man surrounded had insignificant strength and was hardly worth mentioning.
âNo way! Iâll never submit, even if it kills me!â The young man roared.
Initially, Ethan was not concerned about this incident, but the young manâs voice sounded familiar.
He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the noise.
Surprisingly, it was Edward Green!
âWhy is Edward here?â Ethanâs face changed, and he immediately got up and walked towards Edward.
A few martial artists pressed their hands on Edwardâs shoulders.
âNot kneeling? Well, weâll break your legs and make you kneel for the rest of your life!â The leading burly man shouted angrily.
Sweat dripped from Edwardâs forehead, but he continued to hold on strongly.
âIgnorant fool.â The burly man scoffed.
He raised his rugged palm and fiercely slapped it towards Edward!
Just as the palm was about to hit Edward, a delicate hand grabbed his wrist. The burly man frowned and shouted, âWho dares to interfere in my business!â âYour father!â Ethan said coldly.
The next second, Ethanâs palm exerted force, crushing the burly manâs wrist!
âAhh!!â
The intense pain caused the burly man to scream wildly!
The others around him were even more furious, rushing towards Ethan!
But these Grandmasters were nothing before Ethan.
Ethanâs moves were vicious, with every punch landed, someone had a broken arm or leg!
In just a few minutes, all four of these Grandmasters had been defeated!
âMr. Smith? How⦠How did you get here?â Stuttered Edward, surprised.
Ethan patted Edwardâs shoulder and looked at the crowd coldly, âSo, you all like having others kneel down?â
âKid, keep your nose out of-â one person gritted his teeth.
Ethan glanced at him, and then reached out his hand, swatting him to the ground like a fly!
âYou like making people kneel, huh? Then letâs see how you like the taste of kneeling on the ground.â Ethan said coldly.
The next second, Ethanâs figure flashed.
In just a few seconds, the knees of these Grandmasters were shattered!
