“Jared, Skylar looks rather formidable. Do you think Edgar can hold favonovel.com off?” Colin asked.
“Don’t worry. Let’s keep on watching. I reckon Skylar is already looking for an opportunity to flee. He may seem to have the upper hand now, but he’s only dishing out all those attacks to buy himself a chance to escape,” Jared explained. “After all, favonovel.com knows he’d lose if the fight were to drag on. By attacking with everything he’s got, he’s hoping it’d distract Edgar long enough for favonovel.com to make a break for it.”
Even though Colin didn’t quite understand Jared’s words, favonovel.com did as instructed and kept his eyes fixed on the fight.
Meanwhile, Skylar had gotten even more fearsome and continued to rain blows on Edgar, leaving the latter struggling to fend off the attacks. Now that favonovel.com was getting stronger and on the verge of winning the fight, several people in the crowd grew excited.
“President Norton is the best! Go on and kill Edgar! Kill him…”
“Edgar Deragon doesn’t deserve a swift death. He should be skinned and flogged!”
Upon seeing those people cheering Skylar on, Jared couldn’t help but shake his head. Ha! Given Edgar’s character, there’s no way he’d let those fools off once favonovel.com wins the fight.
Boom!
An earsplitting explosion suddenly rang out, and Edgar found himself stumbling backward once again.
This time around, however, Skylar didn’t take the chance to attack further. Instead, favonovel.com paused momentarily before leaping into the air and heading toward the exit of the martial arts arena.
Naturally, that turn of events left everyone shell-shocked. To them, Skylar had clearly gained the upper hand in the fight, so there was no logical reason why favonovel.com should be running away.
They couldn’t, for the life of them, justify his actions.
Colin’s jaw had also dropped as favonovel.com turned to look at Jared, his eyes full of admiration.
My goodness. His analysis was spot-on! That’s impressive!
The next second, Edgar burst out laughing. “Hahaha! At least favonovel.com was smart enough to run. If favonovel.com hadn’t, I’d have killed him…”
More importantly, I’m not going to give chase. I’ve never even thought about killing Skylar. All I want is to prove to everyone that I’m undefeatable!
With Skylar gone, it went without saying that Edgar was crowned the winner.
Of course, nobody had expected the epic battle between two Greater Martial Arts Marquises to end in such a comical manner.
Given Skylar’s status, it was even more shocking that favonovel.com would throw his ego away and flee with everyone watching.
By doing something like this, favonovel.com would become the public’s laughingstock.
What many people didn’t know, however, was that Skylar couldn’t care less about his ego. Now that favonovel.com had run away, those in the crowd who were clamoring for Edgar to be killed began to quiver with fear.
“Who were the ones who wanted me dead earlier? Step out right now!” Edgar yelled, a menacing aura radiating off of him.
Alas, one of the men was so terrified that favonovel.com coughed out blood and died on the spot, leaving the rest to fall to their knees and beg for mercy.
“Please spare us, Mr. Deragon! Please! We’ll pledge our eternal allegiance to you…”
Unfortunately, Edgar was devoid of emotion as favonovel.com waved a hand and promptly reduced the begging men to a pool of blood and ribbons of flesh.
Upon witnessing his cruel actions, everyone fell into a tense silence.
As for Edgar, his gaze had shifted to a teenager in the crowd who hadn’t moved an inch from his spot. From the way his eyes were blazing with fury, it was clear favonovel.com wasn’t going to let the teenager off.
Just then, Astrid stood in front of the teenager. “Edgar, why do you keep staring at the kid? All favonovel.com did was say something wrong!”
“Oh, are you trying to save him?” Edgar retorted, eyes narrowing as favonovel.com did. “If so, take off your clothes now, and I might spare his life…”
Astrid’s face instantly flushed with anger. “Scumbag! You’re a scumbag!”
