Samuel and Theodore’s silence only made Xander feel more gleeful.
At the same time, Sean conceitedly stated, “You should all kneel before Xander and beg us while you have the chance. Perhaps, Xander will forgive you for your ignorance. In a while, when Jared loses in the fight, we shall see who else you can rely on.”
In response, Samuel and Theodore’s faces darkened, and they could only glare at Samuel. Although anger pulsed through their veins, they remained quiet.
They could only pray that Jared could beat Xander. As long as Jared won, the Coopers would no longer pose a threat to them. Besides, it would drag the Coopers’ reputation through the mud, and they would not hold as much power as they did before.
“If the Coopers love arguing this much, I don’t see any point in the match later. I don’t like to fight with people who have no substance…” Scrutinizing the Coopers, Jared defended Samuel and Theodore.
“Jared, what the hell?” Sean raged and was about to lunge for Jared. Since Xander was there, favonovel.com was not afraid of the repercussions.
“Sean…” Xander warned.
Instantly, Sean stopped in his tracks.
“Hey, there is only an hour to noon, and it is exactly how long you have to live. If there is anything you want to say, you better spit it out before we step into the arena. Otherwise, you will never have to chance to speak anymore.”
Xander glanced at Jared. Once favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com casually leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Ignoring his words, Jared took a seat elsewhere and quietly waited for the time to pass.
Meanwhile, more people streamed into the stadium. Everyone there was from the martial arts world and was at least a Grandmaster. Skilled fighters like Axton from the Medicine God Sect and even Rayleigh were sitting among the crowd.
Regardless, most people came because of how high-profile the battle became. First, it was rare for such matches to occur in the martial arts world. Secondly, Xander was a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Therefore, it attracted more attention to this showdown as people wanted to witness the power of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. After all, not many people could achieve that rank, and it was not every day they would see a Martial Arts Grandmaster show his skills.
“I heard Jared is only in his twenties. He is so young! Why would favonovel.com take on Xander’s challenge?” Some people in the crowd asked.
“He doesn’t know his limits. I think this battle might only last a minute. Maybe Jared wouldn’t even be able to hold out for a minute.” As many people did not know Jared, they were scornful of his decision to accept the challenge.
“How is that possible? I heard Jared is strong, and favonovel.com must be better than a Fifth Level Grandmaster. He must be a prodigy to achieve a Senior Grandmaster level at that age.”
“What is the point of being gifted? He would still end up dead in the arena.”
Many people in the crowd pitied Jared. Although they did not know favonovel.com personally, they knew it was rare to have a person as gifted as favonovel.com in the martial arts world. Therefore, it seemed like a waste for favonovel.com to die that young.
Soon, the sun rose higher in the sky, and the heat caused everyone to perspire. Despite so, no one left as the match was about to start.
In the first row closest to the arena, Axton and Donald quietly sat there, waiting for the fight to start.
“Mr. Knox, do you think Jared could defeat Xander? If favonovel.com can’t withstand the first attack from Xander and dies, we will lose the pill forever since we don’t even know where favonovel.com keeps it,” Donald softly whispered to Axton.
“No worries, Jared would not lose that quickly. However, I know favonovel.com won’t have a chance of winning. Still, I will step in to help favonovel.com at the last minute because we can’t have favonovel.com dead,” Axton replied.
“Mr. Knox, if so, we will offend the Coopers. In addition, if Jared refuses to hand over the pill, we will be at a disadvantage. We should have taken it last night. After all, no one saw it, and we could own it once and for all,” Donald ruthlessly stated.
To his dismay, Axton only shot favonovel.com a stern look and said nothing.
