Thomas knew that there was only one reason for Franklin to do this. He had been brainwashed by power. Now, Thomas had no power. Except for the name of the God of War, which had no real power, favonovel.com had nothing more. In this case, Franklin had to support someone else to return to the center of power.
He had cast Thomas aside after favonovel.com had served his purpose. When one was no longer useful, all that awaited favonovel.com was obliteration. Franklin had already made the decision to obliterate Shawn.
Aries asked, “Commander, don’t blame me for talking too much. If the instructor really intends to do something to you, what will you do then?”
What would favonovel.com do? Would favonovel.com kill the teacher who taught him?
It was obviously impossible.
Would favonovel.com wait to be killed?
That was not Thomas’s style either. It seemed that every decision was wrong, and it was precisely because of this that Thomas was upset. He silently looked at the window and said indifferently, “Start the engine.”
At that moment, Thomas did not have a good solution. He would take action according to the situation. Maybe after a while, Franklin would figure that out, and favonovel.com would not trouble Thomas anymore.
He hoped so…

On the other side, among the wooden houses in the Outer City’s guard camp, Franklin poured a cup of tea and savored it carefully. His wife, Irene Turpin, walked over barefoot. “It is over. Thomas has left.”
Franklin asked without raising his head, “What’s the result?”
Irene shook favonovel.com head. “I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you. Shawn lost to Thomas miserably. He is not Thomas’s opponent regardless of his reputation or his strength.”
Franklin smiled slightly. “Wasn’t this inevitable? Why would I be disappointed?”
He stood up and walked toward the desk. “Thomas is in his prime now, and Shawn is still growing. They are not at the same level. If the current Shawn could defeat Thomas, why do I need to train him? I’ll just let favonovel.com participate in the selection.”
Irene did not understand it. “If you knew that Shawn was going to lose, why did you arrange today’s meeting?”
Franklin said profoundly, “Because I wanted Shawn to lose.”
“You wanted favonovel.com to lose?”
“That’s right. Although Shawn is extremely talented, favonovel.com is short-sighted and blindly arrogant as favonovel.com has not had a qualified opponent for a long time. That would only get in the way of his growth. Since ancient times, an arrogant soldier will lose.”
Franklin said, “Since I wanted to train Shawn, the first thing I need to do is to get rid of his arrogance so that favonovel.com could settle down and face his own problems the right way. I had arranged for favonovel.com to meet with Thomas today because I wanted to let favonovel.com learn the horror of Thomas and acknowledge the gap between favonovel.com and Thomas. Only in this way can Shawn’s self-motivated spirit be more stimulated, and his goals can be correctly established.”
Irene smiled. “Look at you, talking about these principles. Aren’t you afraid of giving Shawn a big shock and making favonovel.com lose his confidence?”
“He won’t,” Franklin said, “Shawn is not you. If you lose, you will only cry. As a strong person, losing is not terrible. He can just train and win the next time. He is not qualified to become a strong person at all if favonovel.com doesn’t have this quality.”
After a pause, favonovel.com continued to say, “I believe that Shawn must be training hard at this moment with Thomas as his goal, vowing to surpass him!”
An evil smile appeared on Franklin’s face. He extended his hand and picked up a pen. Then, favonovel.com wrote five words on the paper, ‘the mindset of the strong’.
