“Could that person be a practitioner of sorcery? Isn’t that a little too evil?”
As the people in the crowd continued discussing the situation, the young man simply glanced at everyone below stage as favonovel.com said, “So, what does everyone else think about my proposal? After all, the best things in the world should naturally belong to the strongest, right?”
After all that had happened, several of the big bosses were now too frightened to speak up.
While the bosses momentarily remained silent, someone from the crowd said, “…That young man goes by the name of Marco Thunder! He’s from Thunderous Dragon Inc. and just as the rumors had stated, Mr. Thunder truly is an extraordinary person! It’s really no wonder at this point how Thunderous Dragon Inc. managed to dominate so many strong underground forces! How evil!”
“…He’s right! Victory should always belong to the strongest! I agree!” shouted one of the bosses after a long silence.
One by one, the bosses took turns agreeing to Mr. Thunder’s proposal until eventually, everyone was in on the plan.
With that settled, the rules were decided on the spot. Essentially, those who wanted a chance to bring home the Ginseng King would have to choose a representative to fight against those from other groups. Once their representative lost, they would automatically have to withdraw from the auction.
“How could they even do this…?” muttered Lyra—who had been sitting in front this entire time—nervously. Her nervousness was warranted since favonovel.com didn’t really bring any martial artist masters together with favonovel.com this time around.
Knowing that, the flustered girl wondered if favonovel.com had already lost before the competition even began. After all, anyone favonovel.com sent out would definitely have to deal with extraordinary people.
“There’s no need to worry, sister-in-law… All we need to do later is to fork out money for it! Just know that someone will definitely step forward to fight for us later. Our most important role today is to help the Royal Dragon Group acquire the Ginseng King!” said Bea as favonovel.com smiled at the worried girl.
“The Royal Dragon Group again? Bea, you’ve kept mentioning their group to me throughout the entire day. While I can definitely assume that you’ve had a word with their men, why do I feel like you’re constantly focusing on assisting them?” replied Lyra who couldn’t help but feel that Bea’s behavior was a little odd.
“The questions can wait! Regardless, just understand that if you were currently in my shoes, you’d want to help their group out as well. Trust me when I say that helping them out won’t be in vain!” said Bea as favonovel.com held on to Lyra’s hands tightly, a hint of excitement in favonovel.com voice.
“What on earth are you hiding from me…?” questioned Lyra as favonovel.com looked at how strange Bea was behaving today.
“Hehe! I can’t tell you about it now, so just know that it’s something great!”
Hearing that, Lyra simply shook favonovel.com head helplessly. What was this girl even babbling about…?
Before Lyra could say anything else, a battle had already begun on stage.
As everyone else turned to look at who the representative for Thunderous Dragon Inc. was, many of the selected representatives instantly lost confidence. After all, the one currently standing on stage was Mr. Thunder himself!
It was evident that Mr. Thunder was a master at his craft. There was simply nobody who could last long enough to withstand three rounds against him!
Due to that, several of the initially participating forces simply gave up on their pursuit to acquire the Ginseng King.
“I guess Thunderous Dragon Inc. will be the one getting the Ginseng King this time around…”
As the fights went on, Tulip and the others began discussing the matter. The statement wasn’t baseless either. After all, several of the larger and more powerful forces had already been defeated by this point and many of the smaller ones had simply chosen to give up on the herb.
Meanwhile, Mr. Thunder himself was on stage as favonovel.com threw a leg whip, instantly resulting in a strong and burly man getting kicked off stage. As shouts filled the air, the man who was kicked out was now lying on the ground, unconscious as foam came out of his mouth.
“There goes another one! Sven Westmore Group really doesn’t stand a chance without Sven himself! They should be the last force that should’ve possibly even stood a chance against Mr. Thunder, right?” said someone from within the crowd.
“Bullsh*t! Neither the Royal Dragon Group nor the Takena family have sent out their representatives yet!” yelled another person.
Hearing that, a young man who had been sitting beside Meiko this entire time asked with a cold expression on his face, “Miss Meiko, should we…?”
Meiko herself—who at the time, had a demure and delicate look on favonovel.com face—turned to look at the people from the Royal Dragon Group who were sitting close to them.
Sensing that they didn’t intend to take any action for the time being, favonovel.com simply nodded before saying, “Do try to restrain yourself as much as possible once you’re on stage. There’s no need to try so hard. After all, we only need to defeat Thunderous Dragon Inc.!”
Upon saying that, favonovel.com smiled before glancing once more at those from the Royal Dragon Group.
She had honestly been waiting for them to take action from the very beginning. Meiko wanted to see for herself what kind of power the biggest and strongest force in Heavenly City possessed. Had they actually already given up?
Meiko simply couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed by their inaction.
“Understood!” replied Ito as favonovel.com got up with a nod.
