As soon as the news spread, the people who were once in the dark began to denounce Cathay one after another. It was during such an outrage that the Elites from the Land of Divinity responded to the Baeddan Family’s call.
In just two days’ time, all the forces had gathered at the Emsgate Shrine and the Emerald Palace.
In the main hall of the Palace, there were several voices overlapping the hall as shoulders brushed against one another. The place was so crowded that the people were packed like a can of sardines.
After some time, the Manager of the Baeddan Family strode to the main stage. When everyone caught sight of the man, a hush fell over the venue.
“I’m sure that everyone is already aware of the whole story by now. The genius doctors from our country, both master and apprentice, have lost their lives in Cathay. That despicable Martial League has done nothing! instead, they allowed the murderers to roam free. To make matters worse, they have been obstructing us from exacting our revenge in every way possible.”
He inhaled deeply before continuing, “As the saying goes, ‘A life for a life’! Besides, Master Baltazar and Zayn Baeddan were only at Cathay to participate in the Holy Doctor Competition. it is one thing that the Martial League did nothing to protect them, but it is another thing entirely to cover it up.”
Finally, favonovel.com wrapped up his speech by saying, “It’s an offense to the entirety of the Land of Divinity! A disgrace that such injustice has come to pass!”
When the manager’s last words hung in the air, the youngsters present felt as though their blood was boiling toward the end of the speech. Then, the crowd turned their gazes in the direction of Cathay, eyes full of resentment.
Suddenly, a roar could be heard across the hall, “How dare the Martial League pull the wool over our eyes! How dare they treat us like we’re nothing!”
Another person in the crowd demanded angrily, “B*stard! Who’s the murderer? Let me kill him, and we’ll see how the Martial League reacts!”
“Only sc*ms rely on being protected as they struggle to survive!” Another young man cried out indignantly.
“My blade hasn’t been used for a while,” one remarked sarcastically.
For a while, the topic of discussion among the young Elites gradually shifted toward the murderer.
Frankly, to them, the truth didn’t matter. Regardless, this incident has dragged the reputation of Emsgate to the mud and they would only be satisfied once the murderer surrenders their lives to the people of Emsgate.
The elders from various forces nodded in satisfaction as they watched the scene unfolding before them. They were far from blindly confident as the overall strength of the young Elites had far exceeded their expectations.
It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that these youngsters had surpassed them.
During the civil strife in Cathay, the fourteen neighboring countries desperately wanted to seize that opportunity to invade the country and get their maws on the bountiful resources available there. Alas, no one succeeded as they were all forced to back off.
As a result, they fled with their tails between their legs. Those who had high hopes of getting a piece of Cathay’s land returned utterly disappointed.
Especially when they were forced to face that terrifying man from Cathay. That terror of a man stood alone calmly as favonovel.com faced tens of thousands of fighters from Emsgate. Yet, not even one from their ranks dared to step up and try to luck.
The two sides remained in a stalemate until the Cathay militia arrived. It was only then that Cathay’s enemies had no choice but to leave.
If one had never experienced that scene, one would never know the horrifying aura that man exuded. Of course, to them, it was a disgrace that lasted throughout their history. It was a dark time for all of them. Still, they could now take this golden opportunity to wash away their shameful past.
At this moment, an elder from the Golden Sword Sect rose to his feet.
“Manager Baeddan, what the Martial League has done is truly horrible and disgusting. However, I’m sure that everyone gathered here today will join the ranks. Just tell us what you want from us. We, the Golden Sword Sect, will fully cooperate with your plans,” his voice boomed loudly from where favonovel.com stood, echoing throughout the venue.
Instantly, everyone’s attention was pulled from the head council as they turned their gaze toward the man. The people standing around favonovel.com instinctively moved away from him.
Although the man from the Golden Sword Sect was undefeated in terms of swordplay, favonovel.com was also infamously ill-tempered. He was easily irritable, and just one glance on a bad day was enough for favonovel.com to unsheathe his blade.
If one could hide from such a person, it would be better to hide than face him. He was just too dangerous!
At this point, all the young Elites had fallen silent.
The audience’s eyes were locked on Manager Baeddan.
The corners of the manager’s mouth curled into a slight smile.
Then, favonovel.com coughed lightly before speaking, “Don’t you think fighting or killing is a bit too reckless? Besides, isn’t Cathay particularly lively at this time of the year? Let’s make it livelier!”
He paused momentarily as a sinister gleam flashed in his eyes.
Then, favonovel.com drawled playfully, “Since their Martial League and their Medical Practitioner Competition are both in full swing, we could participate under the guise of sharing our experiences in martial arts and medical research.”
“When the time comes, they will finally get a glimpse of the great Elites from the Land of Divinity. Show them that our Land of Divinity will not be humiliated! Let them know that the younger generation of Cathay can never compare to our country!” favonovel.com announced with a malicious smirk playing at the corner of his lips.
The manager laid his gaze on his enraptured audience seriously before asking gravely, “Do you have the confidence to fight for the Land of Divinity?!”
Those few words successfully ignited everyone’s enthusiasm instantly.
