“Yes. You’re right. It was my fault. I’ve wronged you. After this martial arts tournament treat you to drinks. No one is allowed to leave until we’re thoroughly drunk.”
“That’s more like it.”
over, I’ll
As the two were engrossed in their conversation, a cold, mocking laughter suddenly echoed from the side. “Well, it seems like you’re having a farewell drinking party, aren’t you? But that’s not quite right. I believe this round of drinks should be on me. After all, once the Ginger family leaves, the Cooper family, left behind here, might not be able to withstand the Houghton family’s oppression. Am I right, Emmett?”
The one who spoke was Ryker.
No one knew when he had made his way over there, his face full of a cold, mocking smile.
Emmett frowned, expressing his displeasure by saying, “You’re nothing but a bastard, and you’re unworthy of being my son-in-law. I must have been blind. I should never have let Thia marry you!”
“Ha! Emmett, don’t be angry,” Ryker said with a cold smirk. I’m just afraid I might not have the chance to be your son-in-law in the future. So, I’m taking this opportunity to talk to you as your son-in-law a few more times.”
Stefan couldn’t bear to listen any longer and interjected, “You truly have no chance in the future.
Cynthia, her eyes swollen and red, said, “Ryker, get out of my sight. Even if you were to grovel and try to ingratiate yourself with the Ginger family in the future, we will never forgive you!”
Upon hearing their words, Ryker was taken aback, his face showing a hint of suspicion. From their tone, it seems as if the Ginger family is going to win this time around. That can’t be it, right?
Ryker quickly regained his composure, scoffing as he said, “You all are quite optimistic, aren’t you? Don’t blame me for not warning you, but the Houghton family is no simple matter this time. They have two grandmasters in one family. You should know what that implies.”
Having two grandmasters in a family was a terrifying matter, and everyone shuddered when they heard it.
The Houghtour family had two Manifestor grandmasters. One was the family’s venerable ancestor, Robert, who had once been defeated by Alastair. Naturally, he was not the one participating in this martial arts tournament.
Another was the rising star of the Houghton family, Travis.
The Eight-finger Grandmaster, Travis, was ranked thirty-eighth on the Chanaca Grandmaster
List.

In the family of martial artists, the presence of a single Manifestor grandmaster was enough to command respect and fear. This time, two grandinasters emerged from the Houghton family, indicating their formidable strength. This was the reason why these prominent families were so eager to align themselves.
It was highly likely the Houghton family would soon become the overlords of Juxshire.
After uttering these words, Ryker left with a cold laugh, returning to the area where his family, the Ostell family, gathered, and that was right across from the Ginger family.
He wasn’t worried at all because there was insider information saying that the Houghton family was destined to win this time.
Emmett was indeed upset by a few words from Ryker. However, when he thought about his father having reached the peak of Manifestor, his mood lightened somewhat. He was waiting for the martial arts tournament to end, ready to give these people a good beating.
Soon, the Martial Arts Alliance’s minister, Soren, ascended the stone platform, reciting the rules that everyone was already familiar with. Following this, Alastair and Travis took to the stage simultaneously.
Although Travis only had eight fingers, he was robust and tall. His clothes could hardly contain his terrifyingly muscular physique, as if they were about to burst open at any moment.
His gaze was piercing, exuding a wild intensity.
The Manifestor grandmaster, not even forty years old, indeed had the right to be audacious.
In stark contrast, Alastair was nearly a hundred years old, his b*dy frail and thin. In terms of presence, he was significantly overshadowed by Travis.
However, what puzzled everyone was that Alastair’s face did not display defeat. Instead, it was filled with a fighting spirit that contradicted his age, as if he was extremely confident about this martial arts tournament.
At that moment, everyone’s thoughts mirrored Ryker’s. Is it an illusion? What’s the reason behind Alastair’s inexplicably confident expression? Regardless of whether it’s an illusion, the outcome will soon become clear.
With Soren’s command, the battle that had been simmering for decades between the two prominent families of Juxshire officially began. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
After that, the battle was underway.
A hint of a defiant and confident smile played at the corners of Travis’ mouth. The moment Soren gave his command, Travis charged towards Alastair like a tiger descending a mountain, his fierce aura surging forth.
