The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 980
âCould that person be a practitioner of sorcery? Isnât that a little too evil?â
As the people in the crowd continued discussing the situation, the young man simply glanced at everyone below stage as he said, âSo, what does everyone else think about my proposal? After all, the best things in the world should naturally belong to the strongest, right?â
After all that had happened, several of the big bosses were now too frightened to speak up.
While the bosses momentarily remained silent, someone from the crowd said, ââ¦That young man goes by the name of Marco Thunder! Heâs from Thunderous Dragon Inc. and just as the rumors had stated, Mr. Thunder truly is an extraordinary person! Itâs really no wonder at this point how Thunderous Dragon Inc. managed to dominate so many strong underground forces! How evil!â
ââ¦Heâs right! Victory should always belong to the strongest! I agree!â shouted one of the bosses after a long silence.
One by one, the bosses took turns agreeing to Mr. Thunderâs proposal until eventually, everyone was in on the plan.
With that settled, the rules were decided on the spot. Essentially, those who wanted a chance to bring home the Ginseng King would have to choose a representative to fight against those from other groups. Once their representative lost, they would automatically have to withdraw from the auction.
âHow could they even do thisâ¦?â muttered Lyraâwho had been sitting in front this entire timeâ
nervously. Her nervousness was warranted since she didnât really bring any martial artist masters together with her this time around.
Knowing that, the flustered girl wondered if she had already lost before the competition even began.
After all, anyone she sent out would definitely have to deal with extraordinary people.
âThereâs no need to worry, sister-in-law⦠All we need to do later is to fork out money for it! Just know that someone will definitely step forward to fight for us later. Our most important role today is to help the Royal Dragon Group acquire the Ginseng King!â said Bea as she smiled at the worried girl.
âThe Royal Dragon Group again? Bea, youâve kept mentioning their group to me throughout the entire day. While I can definitely assume that youâve had a word with their men, why do I feel like youâre constantly focusing on assisting them?â replied Lyra who couldnât help but feel that Beaâs behavior was a little odd.
âThe questions can wait! Regardless, just understand that if you were currently in my shoes, youâd want to help their group out as well. Trust me when I say that helping them out wonât be in vain!â said Bea as she held on to Lyraâs hands tightly, a hint of excitement in her voice.
âWhat on earth are you hiding from meâ¦?â questioned Lyra as she looked at how strange Bea was behaving today.
âHehe! I canât tell you about it now, so just know that itâs something great!â
Hearing that, Lyra simply shook her head helplessly. What was this girl even babbling about�
Before Lyra could say anything else, a battle had already begun on stage.
As everyone else turned to look at who the representative for Thunderous Dragon Inc. was, many of the selected representatives instantly lost confidence. After all, the one currently standing on stage was Mr. Thunder himself!
It was evident that Mr. Thunder was a master at his craft. There was simply nobody who could last long enough to withstand three rounds against him!
Due to that, several of the initially participating forces simply gave up on their pursuit to acquire the Ginseng King.
âI guess Thunderous Dragon Inc. will be the one getting the Ginseng King this time aroundâ¦â
As the fights went on, Tulip and the others began discussing the matter. The statement wasnât baseless either. After all, several of the larger and more powerful forces had already been defeated by this point and many of the smaller ones had simply chosen to give up on the herb.
Meanwhile, Mr. Thunder himself was on stage as he threw a leg whip, instantly resulting in a strong and burly man getting kicked off stage. As shouts filled the air, the man who was kicked out was now lying on the ground, unconscious as foam came out of his mouth.
âThere goes another one! Sven Westmore Group really doesnât stand a chance without Sven himself!
They should be the last force that shouldâve possibly even stood a chance against Mr. Thunder, right?â
said someone from within the crowd.
âBullsh*t! Neither the Royal Dragon Group nor the Takena family have sent out their representatives yet!â yelled another person.
Hearing that, a young man who had been sitting beside Meiko this entire time asked with a cold expression on his face, âMiss Meiko, should weâ¦?â
Meiko herselfâwho at the time, had a demure and delicate look on her faceâturned to look at the people from the Royal Dragon Group who were sitting close to them.
Sensing that they didnât intend to take any action for the time being, she simply nodded before saying, âDo try to restrain yourself as much as possible once youâre on stage. Thereâs no need to try so hard.
After all, we only need to defeat Thunderous Dragon Inc.!â
Upon saying that, she smiled before glancing once more at those from the Royal Dragon Group.
She had honestly been waiting for them to take action from the very beginning. Meiko wanted to see for herself what kind of power the biggest and strongest force in Heavenly City possessed. Had they actually already given up?
Meiko simply couldnât help but feel slightly disappointed by their inaction.
âUnderstood!â replied Ito as he got up with a nod.
