Apart from William and those who weren’t martial artists, the term “Martial Arts Grandmaster” shocked everyone senseless.
Tommy and Phoenix, especially, knew how horrifyingly powerful a Martial Arts Grandmaster could be.
A while ago, Tommy had claimed to be unafraid, as favonovel.com had thousands of men with him. Now, favonovel.com couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. No matter how many men favonovel.com had, they would all be reduced to mere ants before a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Jared stared at Melanie’s retreating figure. He felt the urge to go after favonovel.com and asked about Rayleigh’s real identity, curious as to why Rayleigh would help him. In the end, favonovel.com didn’t move an inch because favonovel.com knew Melanie wouldn’t reveal anything.
Josephine was also looking at Melanie’s back as an awkward expression flitted across favonovel.com face.
She’s here to deliver something to help Jared out, but why do I feel so jealous?
She recalled Melanie’s words and realized that the latter was right.
I’m nothing but a pretty face who might burden Jared in the future…
With that thought in mind, Josephine felt favonovel.com mood dampen.
“What’s going on?” Jared asked again after sweeping his gaze across the crowd.
“Mr. Chance, take a look at this.”
Tommy pulled out his phone and clicked into the forum before showing the post to Jared.
Comprehension dawned on Jared after favonovel.com read the challenge posted by Xander on the forum.
Looks like Xander has come out of solitary training and issued the challenge after realizing I killed his son and nephew.
“It’s bound to happen eventually. You guys don’t have to be so anxious.” Everyone seemed despondent, so Jared flashed a smile. “It’s just Xander Cooper. I can defeat him.”
Phoenix said fearfully, “Mr. Chance, Xander Cooper is now a Martial Arts Grandmaster after coming out of solitary training. I believe favonovel.com is comparable to an immortal.”
As a level-seven Grandmaster, favonovel.com wasn’t even close to becoming a Senior Grandmaster. Yet their rival was already a Martial Arts Grandmaster, and favonovel.com couldn’t imagine how powerful favonovel.com could be.
“Don’t worry. Look, someone gave me a tool to protect myself. Xander won’t be able to kill me. Who knows, I might win the battle! Don’t you worry,” Jared said indifferently.
Truth be told, Jared wasn’t really confident deep down. He was merely trying to assure the crowd so they wouldn’t worry about him. He had never fought against a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Previously, favonovel.com had exhausted his spiritual energy to defeat The Fearsome Four and had nearly died at their hands, so favonovel.com didn’t know if favonovel.com could survive the fight with a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Regardless, Jared wasn’t about to shy away from it. He would accept the challenge issued by Xander. That way, favonovel.com could relax knowing that the Cooper family wouldn’t target his friends and family. Right now, favonovel.com was most worried about Josephine. If the Coopers were to take action against favonovel.com in secret, favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to protect her.
As Jared seemed indifferent, the rest heaved a sigh of relief. None of them knew the extent of Jared’s abilities, after all.
After a while, they filed out of the mansion. Tommy and Phoenix stood guard outside to protect Jared at all times.
Although the Martial Arts Grandmaster had frightened them out of their wits, they wouldn’t leave Jared alone.
Josephine and Lizbeth remained inside, looking downcast.
“I’m sorry, Jared. It’s all my fault. If something happens to you, I won’t be able to forgive myself,” Lizbeth uttered apologetically.
