Chapter 401: Chapter 401

Keira was startled.

Her expression grew more solemn, she hadn’t an

ounce of contempt, and she exerted all her strength to meet Erick’s fist!

Matias, seeing this scene, was immediately startled and shouted, “Get out of the way! Erick’s brutestrength is all in his fists. How can you block it?!”

These words made Keira panic.

She couldn’t block it?

When her master taught her, it was always that

offense was the best defense!

But the punch was already thrown, and she still had time to pull back and dodge, but there was noneed…

Thinking like this, Keira still used all her strength and pushed out with her palm!

“Bang!”

The fist struck into the palm of Keira…

Matias abruptly closed his eyes, almost foreseeing that

Keera’s arm would surely dislocate, and she would be

sent flying!

But the anticipated scream didn’t come…

Matias slowly opened his eyes for a peek and saw Keira also a bit stunned, staring blankly at Erick’sfist, and then looking at him with a puzzled gaze.

Then, she pushed with her palm again!

Erick immediately stepped back two steps, but Keira’s feet didn’t move a bit!

Keira was surprised.

The people below were also stunned, and then Jackson started shouting, “Erick, what are you doing?Are you showing mercy to women now? Get on her! Teach that stinky bitch a lesson!”

Keira suddenly realized.

So Erick wasn’t that bad after all?

Was it that he couldn’t bear to watch Jackson’s behavior, and so he deliberately held back?

Thinking this way, Keira’s gaze softened as she looked at Erick, and since it was like this, there was noneed

to use her full strength…

With this thought, Erick gathered his energy and charged at her again.

His fierce appearance looked pretty convincing!

Keira caught his fist again with barely any effort! It really was a show for Jackson!

She immediately gave Erick a kind smile and pushed him away, saying, “Thanks for your kindness, butI must win this match, and I have my reasons that compel me to win. You don’t have to hold backanymore!”

Erick was confused.

At that moment, all thoughts of questions went through his mind!

What the hell was that?

Who the hell was letting her win?!

Erick thought of this and couldn’t help glancing at the audience area, only to see Jackson looking athim with a very unkind gaze. He hastily explained, “I didn’t! I really used all my strength!”

Jackson glared at him venomously. “Okay, Erick, I didn’t expect you to be so deceitful to me! What? Didyou get charmed by this woman’s face too? Go beat her up and punish her harshly!”

Erick didn’t know what to say.

He really had used all his strength!

To prove his words, he waved his fists and rushed at Keira again, but she only wayed her hand.

It seemed she only used a fraction of her strength to block his attack, and then she looked at him with a

kind smile again. “Are you sure you’re not using your full strength? Thank you very much.”

Erick was dumbfounded.

Then, he was gently punched by his opponent and

knocked off the arena.

Being knocked off the arena was also considered losing the competition.

Erick was dumbfounded.

He lost?

He actually lost!

–

Looking back at the stands, the slender woman was still smiling warmly at him. “Thank you foryielding.”

Erick was speechless.

Stunned, he turned his head to see Jackson already in front of him, raising his fist and viciouslypunching him

in the face!novelbin

“Bang!”

Jackson’s punch landed on his face. “You

good-for-nothing scum! Do you not even listen to me now? When did you take a fancy to that bitch? Toyield to her so much! Is this a martial arts competition or are you playing house? Even children pretendbetter than you!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Keira jumped down from the competition stage and frowned as she spoke, “Jackson, don’t go too far.Erick is just fed up with your domineering arrogance!

There’s nothing between him and me!”

Erick was dumbfounded.

He immediately spoke up, “I didn’t, I…”

“Slap!”

Another fierce slan to his face cut off Erick’s words.

and Jackson stretched out his finger, pointing at him. “Fine! I’ll remember this!!”

Jackson turned and left with his men.

Erick didn’t know what to say.

He was going crazy!

He glared at Keira and angrily said, “Why did you lie!”

He had just lost two teeth and spoke with a whistle due to the gap.

Keira felt silent.

She sighed as she looked at Erick. “Sorry, I can’t act. I exposed you.”

Erick was speechless.

He looked around at the onlookers and knew that the

conversation between the two of them would

definitely reach Jackson’s ears, and he felt utterly

terrified.

Keira, however, seemed oblivious to this and instead

walked over to Matias.

Matias couldn’t help but size her up. “Are you okay? Did Erick really go easy on you?”

Keira immediately looked at Erick, and seeing him giving her a pleading look, she quickly nodded andgestured with her hand, indicating she understood. She then said, “How could that be? I’ve become

stronger!”

It seemed like Matias caught on to her intent and immediately nodded. “That’s right, in half a year, youwent from a good-for-nothing to an expert! That’s truly amazing. Erick is… impressive!”

Erick was speechless.

Everyone had seen the little gestures between the two, and their poor acting skills were on full display.

Could the two of them be any more ostentatious?!

Jackson would doubt them even more!!

Erick cried inwardly.

Keira, on the other hand, walked away pleased.

If Erick would let her pass, she might soon enter the

Inner Sect and become an Inner Sect Disciple!

Then, having accomplished cooperation with the Zhou family, only the Gill family would be left…

Well the Gill family….

Keira rubbed her chin, deep in thought when suddenly, someone appeared in front of her. She lookedup to see that it was none other than Elder Grant.

At this moment, Elder Grant was looking at her with a burning gaze, circling around her.

After a while, Elder Grant grabbed her wrist. “You’re a prodigy, truly a prodigy!”

The Outer Sect Disciples practiced martial arts mostly for fun and couldn’t even tell if Erick was reallyholding back or faking it, but how could these things escape his eyes?!

Keera had ordinary bones and even mediocre traits as a child. Who would’ve thought she would growup to be a prodigy?!

He had misjudged her! Luckily, he had found her again!

Even though he had never seen such a person before, Elder Grant would never allow any talent to beburied in the Freeman Sect, so he excitedly pulled Keira’s hand. “Let’s go. I’ve spoken to the SectLeader already, and I’ll take you to see him for Bone Assessment!”

Upon hearing this, Keira’s eyes suddenly lit up.
