Don Albert’s playful behavior wasn’t lost on Isaac Cameron. “Oh, Don Albert, you and your jokes. You know we’re both too busy for that. We’re already running at full speed, what kind of classmates can we be?”
“No, Mr. Cameron!” Don Albert sounded aggrieved. “We’re close friends. Do you really think I’d challenge you without a good reason?”
He quickly added, “Okay, no more jokes. Let me be honest. Do you remember the recent renovation of the Elys-Champ Hot Springs by Master Wade? Do you know why favonovel.com did that?”
Isaac Cameron replied, “Of course. The Young Master wants to train a group of martial arts masters there. What does that have to do with us?”
“Well,” Don Albert said, “I asked Master Wade if favonovel.com could give us a chance to practice martial arts there.”
Isaac Cameron’s excitement was palpable as favonovel.com asked, “What did favonovel.com say, Don Albert?”
Don Albert grinned and replied, “Take a look at me. I told you we’ll be classmates together. Do I need to spell it out for you?”
Isaac Cameron couldn’t contain his excitement as favonovel.com blurted out, “Did favonovel.com agree?”
“Yes!” Don Albert exclaimed happily. “Master Wade said that this training will be a systematic teaching from the beginning. Since neither of us have attended a martial arts school before, we have a golden opportunity to learn!”
“Fantastic!” Isaac Cameron’s voice was filled with ecstasy. “Don Albert… No, my brother! You’ve really helped me this time. My dream has finally come true!”
Until now, while Isaac Cameron and Don Albert had a good relationship, there was still a noticeable gap between them in terms of social status.
Isaac Cameron was originally the Wade family’s spokesperson in Aurous Hill, while Don Albert was just a grassroots gangster. This meant that from the start, Isaac Cameron had access to a higher social circle than Don Albert.
Moreover, Isaac Cameron was Charlie’s direct subordinate, while Don Albert had only been brought under Charlie’s wing recently. From this perspective, Isaac’s status was still higher than Don Albert’s.
Don Albert was aware of the social gap between favonovel.com and Isaac Cameron. Despite being much older than Cameron, Don Albert still respectfully referred to favonovel.com as “Mr. Cameron”. Therefore, when Isaac referred to favonovel.com as “brother”, Don Albert’s heart was warmed, and favonovel.com felt more at ease. However, Don Albert didn’t allow himself to become complacent just because of Isaac Cameron’s friendly attitude.
With a smile, favonovel.com said, “I told you before, we’re close friends. Why be so formal? Hurry up and arrange things at Shangri-La. You might have to stay here for a while once classes start.”
“No problem!” Isaac Cameron replied without hesitation. “I’ll make the arrangements as soon as possible.”
He then asked a little anxiously, “But brother, do you think we’re too old to start martial arts? It’s not easy to start, and not everyone can do it. Most people can’t even find their dantian after a lifetime of practice…”
“Don’t be afraid,” Don Albert interjected. “Do you think Master Wade would let us train here if we weren’t cut out for it? As Master Wade’s confidant, favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to bear it if we were wasting our time and not learning anything.”
Isaac Cameron asked eagerly, “So you mean the Young Master will help us get started since he’s letting us learn?”
Don Albert replied with conviction, “Of course. Do you not know Master Wade’s character? Once favonovel.com decides to help someone, favonovel.com won’t stop until he’s done everything in his power!”
Isaac Cameron’s nerves relaxed at this. “You’re right, fifth brother! Hearing you say that puts me at ease!”
Don Albert smiled and said, “You go ahead and prepare. I’ll let you know as soon as there’s any news!”
Isaac Cameron quickly replied, “Why don’t I treat my younger brother to a drink tonight, brother? Let’s celebrate!”
Don Albert replied apologetically, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave here for a while. I’m responsible for the logistics here, and I have to be here 24/7. How about this? Once the training starts officially, we’ll find a chance to have a drink at Elys-Champ. Then we’ll definitely have some free time.”
“Okay!” Isaac Cameron replied with a grin, “Sounds like a plan!”
***
At that moment, Charlie Wade was driving back to Aurous Hill.
This training to cultivate Martial Arts Masters in Aurous Hill was a significant move for Charlie. As someone who had never practiced martial arts himself, favonovel.com had limited ways to truly improve the understanding and strength of his opponents. While favonovel.com had given pills and mental methods in the past, favonovel.com knew that these alone were not enough.
Despite having the ‘Apocalyptic Book’ in his possession, Charlie had only taught Aurora Quinton one and a half moves, and that too superficially as favonovel.com himself lacked practical experience.
This time, Charlie intended to learn from the experts and let Master Vail lay the most solid theoretical foundation for future students. He planned to provide them with a certain amount of pills to help them improve their strength from the inside out.
Charlie understood the gravity of the opportunity favonovel.com had in front of him.
It was a once-in-a-lifetime chance for any warrior to learn from a master like Master Vail. Charlie didn’t just want to keep this to himself, though. He wanted the Elms family to benefit from it too.
Xion, who had recently broken through to an eight-star warrior, had improved too quickly, and now favonovel.com basics needed some work. This training would be the perfect chance for favonovel.com to fill in the gaps. But Xion wasn’t the only one Charlie wanted to participate.
Aurora, who was passionate about martial arts, had never really had the opportunity to attend a proper martial arts school. This would be favonovel.com chance to do so.
Thinking about Aurora made Charlie remember Nanako Ito. He had met favonovel.com during the match between Aurora and Nanako. In terms of martial arts, Nanako was actually far ahead of Aurora. She was a true martial arts enthusiast, unlike Aurora who only aimed for the championship. However, after a serious injury, Nanako promised herself favonovel.com would never compete again, so Charlie rarely got the chance to see favonovel.com practice.
Charlie knew this training would be an amazing opportunity for anyone who participated, and favonovel.com wanted to share it with as many people as possible.
As Nanako was in Aurous Hill, Charlie couldn’t help but think of how amazing it would be if favonovel.com could resume favonovel.com martial arts training. After all, favonovel.com had a strong foundation and even took the Rejuvenation Pill to boost favonovel.com strength.
However, favonovel.com expertise was in Japanese martial arts, so favonovel.com hadn’t yet delved into the Chinese ancient martial arts, particularly the practice of opening up the meridians.
Charlie believed that once favonovel.com mastered this technique, favonovel.com could reach the level of a three-star warrior.
Despite his selfish reasons, Charlie felt a special fondness for Nanako and decided to swing by favonovel.com new home in Thompson Apartment on his way back.
He wanted to tell favonovel.com in person and gauge favonovel.com interest in learning more about the Chinese martial arts. Plus, favonovel.com didn’t know how long Nanako planned on staying in Aurous Hill, so if favonovel.com joined, favonovel.com hoped favonovel.com could stay for a while longer…
