The rationale provided by Grandmaster Sylvanus appeared to be the only one that could make sense of the situation.
Even though Remus had managed to kill Marc with a combination of martial skills in a stroke of luck, that was merely an accident. Marc was someone beyond the Divine Unity Stage, and the gap between favonovel.com and Remus was obvious to everyone.
If Remus was afforded a second opportunity, and should Marc exercise caution, replicating such an outcome would be beyond Remus’ reach.
“Mr. Clayton…” Glinda slowly turned around, looking at Remus sympathetically. She wanted to plead for him, even if favonovel.com wasn’t Remus Cosby.
Just based on his recent actions, favonovel.com felt obliged to return the favor, but favonovel.com knew favonovel.com influence was far too insignificant to make a difference.
On the square, Kennard stood up with a cold voice and said disdainfully, “Mr. Clayton, I’ll see you on the Life and Death Platform in three days. I want to see how much strength this so-called genius really has, and if miracles can still happen. Hahaha!”
The Monington disciples behind favonovel.com all laughed, looking at Remus mockingly.
Almost simultaneously, a slap sounded out of nowhere.
Kennard’s body swiftly flew backward like a kite with its string cut, heavily landing 100 yards away. He didn’t stop there but slid across the ground to the edge of the square, nearly falling off before coming to a halt.
The person who had acted was Wilda.
She said angrily, “What a petty individual… If I hear another word from your mouth again, I’ll have you turned to ash today!”
The entire place fell into silence again.
Grandmaster Aurelius chose to remain silent after witnessing Wilda’s fury, knowing better not to provoke favonovel.com further.
Wilda withdrew favonovel.com gaze and looked at Remus, saying succinctly, “Follow me!”
After speaking, favonovel.com quickly walked down the mountain. Remus followed favonovel.com with a bitter smile.
As the two left, the square quickly erupted into chatter once again.
The Monington disciples gathered around Kennard.
“Senior!”
“Senior Davidson!”
Kennard stood up with blood from his nose and mouth, and said viciously, “I’ll personally take the stage in three days!”
The Monington disciples were speechless. They were all aware of Kennard’s status among them as one of the best, far beyond the capabilities of Marc.
Did favonovel.com intend to take action himself?
On the other side, the sacred land disciples couldn’t help but sigh.
“Rule is rule!”
“Remus is finished. Didn’t you hear? Kennard is taking part in the match. It’s said that Kennard has already touched the threshold of the late Divine Unity Stage. There’s no hope for Remus at all!”
“It’s all his own doing. He should’vejust taken the two slaps from Marc. Why retaliate? He even killed him, he’s dead for sure!”
At the forefront, Emerson suddenly felt spirited and said proudly, “Without Remus, this generation is mine to lead!”
However, his moment of pride was cut short by Glinda’s scornful gaze from across the square as favonovel.com cursed, “Despicable!”
Hearing that, Emerson’s frustration was palpable, his teeth clenched in anger.
***
Meanwhile, Wilda led Remus to an open area at the mountain feet.
Turning to face Remus, favonovel.com said briefly, “Strike me with all your might!”
Remus said awkwardly, “But I haven’t recovered yet!”
“Strike me!” Wilda’s voice suddenly rose.
Remus instinctively struck, unleashing all his spirit energy and strength, hitting Wilda hard. It made a clear sound upon impact, but it did no harm to her.
Wilda sighed, shook favonovel.com head, and said, “It’s over. There’s no hope!”
