Unfortunately, Emmanuel didn’t possess the same intense presence as

Yosef, nor did he radiate the same level of aggression. His techniques lacked

the lethal edge of his opponent’s, resulting in a noticeable difference in

strength.

“Are you done talking?” Emmanuel asked with a smile.

“Pretty much. After the match, if you’re interested, I can offer you a spot in

Tocvale. I’d be your instructor and offer you structured and professional

guidance to enhance your skills,” Austin proposed. His intentions were

genuine but accompanied by a hint of arrogance.

“No, thank you,” Emmanuel declined. His gaze sharpened into a predatory

glare that momentarily unsettled those around him as he stepped forward.

Yet, he swiftly regained composure while his eyes betrayed a fierce

determination.

Austin was stunned upon seeing that. He had never witnessed Emmanuel in

such a state before. Had he known, Austin wouldn’t have uttered those words

earlier.

Emmanuel’s tangible sense of danger conjured images of destruction and

chaos trailing behind him. At that instant, Austin comprehended the gravity

of his mistake. He understood that Emmanuel had already perfected the skill

of harnessing his killing intent, which had outmatched Austin’s capabilities.

“Is this the kind of killing intent you were expecting?” Emmanuel’s whisper sent

a chill down Austin’s spine as he approached.

In the blink of an eye, Emmanuel stood directly before him. Despite being

shaken to his core, Austin, disciplined by his training regimen, instinctively

made the first move. However, before he could execute his technique,

Emmanuel had already restrained his limbs.

It was the essence of the “Art of Adaptability.” The technique anticipated and

countered the opponent’s every move with precision.

“I have no intention to kill you. Otherwise, you’d be six feet under by now,”

Emmanuel whispered into Austin’s ear. In the blink of an eye, he executed at

grappling technique followed by a shoulder throw and threw Austin off the

stage.

Under normal circumstances, Austin would have been able to land safely.

However, Emmanuel’s commanding presence had momentarily shattered

Austin’s fighting spirit. Surprisingly, Emmanuel’s mere glance stripped Austin,

the “demonic instructor” of Tocvale, of his fighting spirit.

Deep down, Austin recognized the vast difference in their skill levels. Even if

Emmanuel had concealed his true strength before, Austin should have been

able to sense it. Yet, he remained oblivious, simply because their skill

difference was too big.

Austin’s abrupt expulsion from the stage sent shockwaves through the

spectators.

“How… how is this possible?”

Many were left dumbfounded by the unexpected turn of events.

Hannah, who had previously underestimated Emmanuel, was now in a state

of panic. She wondered if this unassuming man possessed such strength.

Despite her limited knowledge of martial arts, even she could recognize

Austin’s imposing presence with his muscular physique, fierce demeanor,

and piercing gaze. Yet, she was surprised to witness Emmanuel effortlessly

defeat him.

“Bernett, what are we going to do now? Can Nigel stand a chance against

Emmanuel?” she asked nervously.

She had already cut ties with the Quillen family and repeatedly provoked

them alongside Bernett. She didn’t know how they would recover if they lost.

Bernett also frowned and asked Nigel, “What do you think?”

“Mr. Finch, don’t worry!” Nigel’s confidence remained unwavering despite not

having experienced Emmanuel’s deadly intent firsthand.

Drawing from his experience and skill, he felt more than capable of handling

whatever Emmanuel could throw at him. “I’ve always held back my true

strength. While Emmanuel’s performance exceeded my expectations, he

couldn’t possibly surpass the S- Level. And I, at the very least, am an S Rank

fighter. So, rest assured!”

Hannah’s tense muscles relaxed at his words. She was relieved to hear that

Nigel still had hidden reserves of strength.

“Bernett, you truly are a master strategist!” She embraced him and planted a

kiss on his lips.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled triumphantly. “This is what

we call leaving room for maneuver. If I didn’t have absolute confidence,

would I dare to come to Nuthana to showcase our skills? Would I dare to

challenge Eshal?”

Meanwhile, Bobby had been closely monitoring the performances of the

Finch and Quillen families. As the 32 into 16 stage matches concluded, a brief

interlude allowed him to consult his two top fighters.
