"Okay!" Urias nodded in agreement. He wouldn't miss such a chance. Even if there was just a glimmer of hope, he would pursue it.Grace and the others departed. If Urias could grow stronger, it would benefit the Montgomerys. However, they didn't have overly high expectations. Everyone knew that mastering energy strikes was challenging.Now, only Eric, Sylvia, and the Montgomery guards remained on the scene.Urias glanced at the guards and said, "Continue your training. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, please come with me."After moving a distance away from the training area, Urias expressed his admiration, "Mr. Johnson, I envy you. Unleashing energy strikes at 30 is incredible! With your current level, you'll be unmatched when you become a grandmaster."Eric and Sylvia were puzzled.After a moment, Eric asked, "Mr. Doberman, doesn't mastering energy strikes mean one becomes a grandmaster?"Urias's expression froze as he looked at Eric. After a pause, he asked, "Mr. Johnson, do you really th

Urias nodded, acknowledging Eric's words. "I relied on my martial arts to counter the attack, but comprehending energy strikes remains challenging," he admitted.It was clear that some things would forever elude certain individuals. While Eric had developed his unique punching style, Urias had adhered to traditional techniques, and Eric had surpassed him in understanding martial arts.Eric sighed. "Mr. Doberman, please don't give up just yet. There's still hope for you."Urias smiled, appreciating Eric's encouragement. "At my age, I don't have many pursuits left, but your future is limitless. Just be cautious of those connected to the underground arena, and I hope your mask can protect your identity for a while."Eric nodded.Considering the power of the underground arena, if someone intended to find him, they likely would have done so already. The fact that no one had come looking for him indicated that his identity remained concealed.Eric had no intention of participating in a

Sylvia was planning ahead. Moreover, the technology required for chip manufacturing wasn't as advanced as that needed for processors.As Sylvia spoke, the executives grasped the idea that they were going to develop their own chips. However, the challenge lay in their lack of technological expertise in this area.While they were knowledgeable about chip technology, stepping into chip production required a significant investment that the current funds of the Innova Group couldn't cover.Sylvia reassured, "Therefore, I've found a domestic chip company. My plan is to establish a deep collaboration with them, and I've already reached out to them. They are open to the idea. The purpose of this meeting is to brief everyone on our company's next steps."The executives nodded in agreement. It would be easy for the three major international manufacturers to cut off their supply. If the Innova Group continued to grow stronger and the international giants resorted to such tactics, it would cre

The current Innova Group lacked the capability for both aspects. While they had been nurturing talented individuals since their establishment, the time was short, and specialized industry talent training took too long.-After arriving, Sylvia's first step was to schedule a meeting with Sam Hampton. When the call connected, she asked, "Mr. Hampton, I'm Sylvia Williams from the Innova Group. Are you available this afternoon?"A young man unexpectedly answered the call. "I'm sorry, Ms. Williams, but my father is no longer involved in the company's affairs. As for any verbal commitments he made to the Innova Group, I'm not aware of them. Currently, Frontier Digital has no intention of cooperating with the Innova Group."Before Sylvia could respond, the young man hung up, stunning her."What's wrong?" Eric asked.Sylvia pressed her lips and replied, "Something unexpected happened. The person who answered the call was Mr. Hampton's son. He stated that Mr. Hampton is no longer in charg

Anson glanced at Eric and pursed his lips in silence. Eric's youth made it hard for Anson to believe he could help Sam. However, the fact that the head of the holistic medicine department had faith in Eric made him think otherwise.'Could he really save Mr. Hampton?' he pondered.After briefing Eric about Sam's condition, Tiago said, "Hol. Johnson, let's head to the ICU.""Okay," Eric replied.They all donned white coats and masks before making their way to the ICU. Even behind a mask, Eric's distinctive features stood out, astonishing Noel when he saw Eric and Anson together.Eric nodded at Sylvia and then entered the ward with Anson and Tiago."What's going on?" Noel asked.After Eric nodded at Sylvia, Noel recognized him as the man with the imposing scars.In his moment of confusion, Anson stepped out of the ward and asked, "Where are Mr. Hampton's family members?"The Hamptons quickly gathered around Anson.Anson explained, "Mr. Hampton's condition is very serious. We've
