Upon hearing these words, Dexter Blairâs face finally flashed with a hint of shock.
He coldly said, âThe last time I saw him, he was only a master, and the possibility of him directly stepping into the Grandmaster realm now is indeed not high.â
âSo, did Ethan Smith really win against a Grandmaster of the Fifth Rank as a master?â
The steward nodded and said, âYes⦠yes, if Ethan Smith was also in the Grandmaster realm, there would be nothing to fear, butâ¦â Dexter Blair kept silent, his face icy.
A master defeating a grandmaster was almost unheard of!
âYoung master, should we take action in advance and get rid of this Ethan Smith?â the steward tentatively suggested.
Upon hearing these words, Dexter Blairâs face instantly turned extremely cold.
He coldly looked at his steward and said, âWhat are you suggesting? That Iâm inferior to Ethan Smith?â
âYoung Master, I absolutely did not mean that!â The terrified steward immediately knelt on the ground!
Dexter Blair coldly said, âHe is nothing but a speck, and I can easily crush him like an ant!â
âIf we take action now, where would the Blair familyâs prestige lie?â
âYes, yesâ¦â The steward was sweating and rapidly nodding his head in response.
Dexter Blair didnât say much, looking out the window, he scoffed, âThereâs less than half a year left. I donât believe he can make much progress in this half a year!â
Progressing from the rank of Master to Grandmaster in half a year was an utterly impossible task!
Thefore, Dexter Blair wasnât overly worried.
The next day.
Upon waking up, Ethan Smith started to prepare pills for the Dragon Tiger Team members in advance.
He refined two types of pills, one for healing injuries and the other one to enhance inner strenzth.
As long as these two types of pills were combined with the body refining technique, Ethan Smith had complete confidence in obtaining the first place.
âI should begin closed-door training.â Ethan Smith estimated the time and thought to himself.
Just then, Clare Richardson suddenly dashed into the room.
She shook Ethan Smithâs arm and said, âDidnât you promise to take me somewhere? When will you take me?â
Ethan Smith said with a bit of a headache, âWait a few days, okay?â
âNo!â Clare Richardson adamantly shook her head.
âI want to go now. If you donât agree, Iâll stick to you!âClare Richardson stated seriously.
Ethan Smith sighed in resignation, pondered momentarily and said, âAlright, Iâll take you there once, okay?â
âGreat!â Clare Richardson promptly nodded in agreement.
So, Ethan Smith retrieved his phone and called Conrad Schroeder.
Upon connecting the call, Ethan Smith asked, âConrad, where is the largest cemetery in Chuzzle?â
Caught off guard, Conrad asked in confusion, âMr. Smith, what do you need a cemetery for?â
Ethan Smith didnât conceal the truth, he bluntly explained the situation to Conrad.
âIn order for Clare to cultivate, she must rely on dark energy.â Ethan Smith solemnly said.
After a period of silent contemplation, Conrad said, âMost of the cemeteries in Shiglance City are public, thereâs no dark energy there.â
At this, Conrad hesitated for a moment before continuing, âHowever, I happen to know a place. It used to be a Battlefield where hundreds of people are said to have died.â
Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith said on the spot, âCome and pick me up. Iâm at William Richardsonâs house.â
âYes, Mr. Smith,â Conrad responded.
After hanging up, Ethan Smith suddenly realized something.
Considering that Conrad was now in possession of the holy body, coupled with his Grandmaster strength, his formidable physical prowess was far beyond imagination!
Using him to test the strength of his own body seemed like a good choice. About ten minutes later, Conradâs car arrived at William Richardsonâs front gate.
Clare Richardson had been ready for a while, having changed into particularly cool clothes.
It was early winter now, and Clare Richardson was shivering with cold as she sat there.
âWhy are you dressed so lightly?â Ethan Smith frowned.
âIt looks good! Donât you know, beautiful girls prefer style over warmth.â Clare Richardson giggled.
Ethan Smith appeared somewhat helpless. He reached out with his palm and instantly enveloped Clare Richardson in a wave of qi.
For an instant, Clare Richardson felt warmth emanating from her body.
âLetâs go.â Ethan Smith waved his hand.
The two got into Conradâs car and quickly headed towards their destination.
âThis Battlefield is in the outskirts of Shiglance City, it used to be a village. But, after weird incidents kept happening, the people in the village all dispersed.â Conrad explained.
Ethan Smith nodded.
Judging from Conradâs words, this Battlefield seemed like an ideal place for cultivation.
Alter anvmg ror over two nours, tney nnany arnvea at me village conraa mentioned.
The place was blocked off with caution tape, and there was even a sign beside it reading: Accident-prone area, entry prohibited.
Ethan Smith got out of the car, frowning and looking up at the sky.
Dark clouds were gathered above the village, even more eerie was the colossal ghost face seemingly beneath these clouds!
âWhatâs that?â Ethan Smith asked, pointing at the ghost face in the sky. Conrad frowned and said, âI donât see anything. Whatâs wrong?â âNothing.â Ethan Smith shook his head.
It seemed like the ghost face was only visible to his eyes.
âSomething is off about this place. âEthan Smith said in a low voice. âYou both should stay close to me later and not wander off.â
Clare Richardson looked a bit nervous and said, âWhyâ¦whatâs wrong? This place looks pretty creepyâ¦â
âScared? If youâre scared, then you should go home.â Ethan Smith said.
âNo!â Clare Richardson immediately grabbed Ethan Smithâs arm.
Without saying anything more, Ethan Smith led the two over the caution tape and into the village.
The ghost face in the sky hung directly over the center of the village.
So, Ethan Smith headed straight towards it without stopping.
In a while, the three of them arrived under the ghost face.
âWhoâs there? Leave immediately!â As soon as they arrived, a booming voice sounded.
Turning around, they saw two young men blocking their path. Ethan Smith looked at the two men and asked, âWho are you?â
âEnough of your nonsense! Our master is cultivating, all of you leave immediately!â The two young men shouted.
At the same time, they released their auras in a burst!
âGrandmaster?â Ethan Smithâs eyebrows twitched.
Going by their aura, their level was around that of a first rank Grandmaster. Ethan Smith scoffed, âYour masterâs cultivation has nothing to do with us, does
âPresumptuous! Our master is Lord Flores! Leave if you know whatâs good for you!â The two of them shouted angrily.
Ethan Smith scoffed again,âYouâre seriously domineering! Heâs allowed in, but why arenât we allowed?â
The two men arrogantly replied, âBecause our strength is greater than yours, this place belongs to us!â
âAre you saying if weâre stronger, weâd have the rights to kick you out?â Ethan Smith scoffed.
The two men affirmed casually, âThatâs right, if you have the abilities!â âIs it? Then Iâll grant your wish!â Ethan Smith responded coldly.
âConrad, clear the field!â Ethan Smith ordered sternly.
âYes!â Conrad stepped forward, and his aura erupted in an instant!
