Rags to Riches Chapter 391 This Is Obviously a Scam
Marcus led Vivian into the auction house. They found some empty seats and sat down. Perhaps it was because a national treasure was up for auction, but the place was chock-full of people.Soon, the auction began. Owen, dressed in a tuxedo, walked onstage. He waited until The View of Toledo was put on display before introducing it. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the main item that we have on auction today: 'The View of Toledo!'"It's one of Merania's national treasures and invaluable. All the copies that you see of it in the market now are forgeries, which only makes the one I have on display particularly priceless!"Owen turned to the crowd and continued, "Rest assured that you don't need to doubt the authenticity of this painting. It came from the estate of Zenith Jahn, after all. I'm sure no one here would doubt his ability to discern an item's authenticity, right?"His words were greeted by deafening applause."Now, I'm sure everyone is excited to get their hands on this nationa
Rags to Riches Chapter 392 They Can't Spend My Money
Owen wasn't happy to hear that. "Now, sir, that's not something I can agree with. You're the one who's not following our rules, yet you're accusing us of trying to scam you. What do you mean by this?"His obnoxious attitude made Marcus laugh. The guy was confident Marcus couldn't afford to pay for the painting."If you can't afford it, why pretend to be Richy Rich?" A voice rang out at this juncture. It was Alfonse."Exactly!" Romelius chimed in. "You're nothing but the head of security at Phisteele Corporation, yet you have the nerve to come to an auction of this scale. You're just embarrassing yourself!""Perfect timing, gentlemen. Please, you have to help me out with this." Owen seemed excited to see them. He said, "This gentleman here won the auction for 'The View of Toledo' but can't afford to pay the bill. Don't you think he's only here to cause trouble?""What nonsense!" Vivian couldn't take it anymore. "You guys are the ones being unreasonable!""Me, being unreasonable?"
Rags to Riches Chapter 393 Amadeus' Death
"Of course not!" Alfonse looked proud as he said this. "I know you're strong, Marcus. You're strong enough to take down Art and Don, two of Marie Isla's strongest fighters. But today is the day your life ends."Romelius nodded. "That's right. Considering your talents, we'll let you live if you surrender, agree to join Zayclon Corporation, and help us take Phisteele Corporation down.""Wow, you've got the nerve to say something like that," Marcus sneered. "So, which small fry have you brought with you today?"This infuriated Alfonse. "How dare you, you bastard! Who do you think you are, insulting Marie Isla's Grand Maester like that?"Marie Isla's Grand Maester? Amadeus? Marcus looked amused.At this moment, the Toyota's door opened. Out came a man—Amadeus. His hair had gone completely white, and though he was dressed plainly, the sword by his side gave him an air of godliness.Alfonse and Romelius were delighted to see him get out of the car. Romelius pointed at Marcus and said,
Rags to Riches Chapter 394 A Sudden Visit From Emily
Because of the distance and the restricted view from inside the car, Vivian hadn't gotten a close look at Amadeus' death."Yep, all taken care of." Marcus smiled. "This time, Zayclon Corporation's out of our way for good. From today onward, Tension Incorporated can focus on its expansion without worrying about problems from them!""Just like that?" Vivian was rather incredulous."Of course. Do you know who that old man who just appeared was? That's Amadeus Durst, Marie Isla's Grand Maester. The Lowman father and son were the ones who invited him here."I've managed to convince him to talk the Fulton family into getting Zayclon Corporation out of our region once he gets back to Marie Isla," Marcus said."Oh, okay." Vivian didn't doubt him.It was as Marcus said. Zayclon Corporation announced it was terminating its operations in Prudence County in the expanse of a night. It happened as suddenly as Zenith's disappearance.Both Zayclon Corporation and Zenith had gotten to where they
Rags to Riches Chapter 395 The Scion From Easton
At this moment, there was an open-top Audi R5 speeding along the highway. Four scions from Prudence County were enjoying the exhilarating speed. They were Sid Henrix, Lazlo Meester, Irvine Yancey, and Marshall Cowan.And it was at this point that the black Chevrolet approached them. It was actually going at the same speed as the Audi. The two cars traveled at the same speed for ten seconds before the Chevrolet overtook the Audi."The fuck?" Sid, who was at the wheel, was pissed off by this. "This dude's challenging us!""Yeah, man." Lazlo egged Sid on. "Get him, Sid!""Guys, don't you think the woman in the passenger seat looks really familiar?" Irvine asked.The three other men tried to recall the woman he mentioned. Marshall was the first to say, I remember now! Her name's Emily Stone—she's the belle of Cromford University! More importantly, she's the best friend of Eugene Byrne's wife-to-be!""Brenda Lorimer's going to marry Eugene soon, which means her best friend will also e
Rags to Riches Chapter 396 The Commander-In-Chief Is So Young
The Lorimer family was the one gunning for a political marriage with the Byrne family, and Brenda was supposed to be Eugene's bride. Still, that didn't stop Eugene from lusting after Emily, who had a pretty face and a good figure.Eugene had it all planned out. Since Emily was Brenda's best friend, he would make Emily his while marrying Brenda. It was killing two birds with one stone.How could Eugene not be mad if there was now a possibility of someone getting a taste of Emily before he could? Sid and the others had almost died while trying to chase the culprit down, too.As someone who was supposed to be backing them up, Eugene had to make his presence known. At the same time, this would elevate the Byrne family's status in the region. And so, Eugene stood in Marcus' way."Brat, are you the one who raced with Sid and the others on the highway?" He gave Marcus a sidelong glance.Marcus was taken aback. He glanced at Sid and the others, who stood behind Eugene. They looked familia
Rags to Riches Chapter 397 Eugene's Rage
Upon learning that Marcus wasn't even 30, these high-ranking officials couldn't help but sigh.Despite his young age, none of these leaders dared to consider themselves his seniors. If it weren't for Marcus leading Merania's Four Monstrous Generals to thwart over forty nations' attempts to conquer Merania six years ago, these leaders wouldn't even know where they'd be today."The commander-in-chief is young and promising, he's truly the pride of Merania!" the commander couldn't help but exclaim."Thinking back to six years ago, when the commander-in-chief single-handedly resisted the attack of over forty nations' coalition and created the Four Monstrous Generals, this legendary journey is truly heart-stirring!" said the governor of Northfort's troops."If I were a few years younger, I would definitely follow you and fight on the front lines, serving Merania!" said the governor of Cromford."Children should be more like you!" The vice governor also nodded. "I've taught my descend
Rags to Riches Chapter 398 The Gathering of the County's Bigwigs
The commander had a bad temper and retorted, "Who do you think you are?"I've been around for countless years, and I've never encountered such a cocky young brat!""Well, now you have!" Eugene snorted and remained proud. "You local bumpkins from this province should consider it an honor to give up this room to me!""What if we don't?" the commander challenged."Hmm?" Eugene instructed Sid, "Sid, go get Dax. I ain't holding back on him, no matter what!""Sure thing." Sid scurried away and soon brought Dax back with him.Seeing Eugene and his group picking a fight with Marcus and demanding that they vacate cabin 888 made Dax turn pale with fear—especially when Eugene proposed that Marcus and his group should give up cabin 888."Mr. Byrne Junior, does this arrangement work for you?" Dax couldn't afford to agree with Eugene and tried to find a compromise. "I'll cover the expenses for all of you tonight. How about that?"Eugene snorted in frustration."Fuck you!" Sid understood the

Sean nodded in agreement. "Exactly. Alan and the others really can't adapt. Why bring military rules into everything else?"Wallace glanced at Sean and said, "Of course, Marcus can earn my respect if he can demonstrate the strength that commands it."Sean shook his head. "I find that unlikely. Take the bet, for instance. If he can really break past the Colemans' gates a year from now, maybe we can respect him."Wallace sneered. "With just that? Does he even deserve our respect for that?"Breaking past the Colemans' gates is just the beginning."To earn our respect, he has to make it onto the Meranian Wolf List!""Meranian Wolf List?" Sean's eyes lit up.In the Meranian military, the Meranian Wolf List was a reflection of a soldier's strength. Those who made the list were undoubtedly individuals with exceptional powers. The higher the rank, the stronger the individual.Among the top 50 on the Meranian Wolf List were figures feared by enemy nations. Even Chief Commander Wal

Marcus and Vivian left.Alan and the others slumped in their seats and panted heavily. Alan's back was soaked in sweat.The others weren't faring much better. The air in the private room was thick with the scent of cold sweat.It took a good ten minutes before Alan finally spoke. "It truly defies my imagination! The bastard son despised by Mr. Coleman Senior has turned out to be Merania's guardian, the commander-in-chief!"Zakir nodded in agreement. "Mr. Coleman Senior was right. The commander-in-chief is indeed a member of the Colemans! It's ridiculous. Mr. Coleman Senior went to great lengths to uncover the commander-in-chief's true identity and background, not knowing that the commander-in-chief is his own son!""This matter must be kept absolutely confidential. Under no circumstances should we reveal the commander-in-chief's true identity to Mr. Coleman Senior. Otherwise, the five of us will not only ruin our future but may also spend the rest of our lives behind bars!" Al

Chapter 725 To Invite Us for a Simple Dinner
Marcus, too, did not expect that the Colemans who invited him and Vivian to dinner would turn out to be these troublemakers. These guys clearly intended to cause trouble from the looks of it.Marcus glanced around the room and pretended to be puzzled by asking, "Are you planning to go against me?"Alan and the others got goosebumps upon hearing Marcus' question.Their palms were sweating uncontrollably.They were indeed planning to humiliate Marcus.However, they never expected Marcus to be the commander-in-chief!In addition to the Dragon Training Camp incident, Alan and the other four had already attempted to take action against Marcus for the second time. The fact that they had tried to target the commander-in-chief twice in a row made them feel fearful.Alan quickly realized the gravity of the situation. His head shook mechanically, and he hastily said, "No… No! The five of us just wanted to invite you and Mrs. Coleman to have a simple dinner!"Zakir even took the initi

After Alan hung up, Vivian went to talk to Marcus about what had just happened.Vivian said with a concerned look, "Marcus, I believe the Colemans don't have good intentions. I'm afraid that the reason they invited us to dinner all of a sudden is because...."Marcus smiled as if the situation didn't bother him. "Are you worried they might have ulterior motives? Don't worry. Let's just agree to their invitation. It's just dinner!"Vivian was speechless at Marcus' response. Those people were part of the Colemans.It was clear that they were targeting Marcus. And yet, he was deliberately walking into the lion's den.Although the Colemans held a prestigious position as the top ancient family in Merania, people without a certain status did not qualify to even hear about them. While pregnant, Vivian learned about the Colemans.She began to understand their formidable reputation, especially after learning about their glorious history.Thus, Vivian couldn't help but sigh at the lo

Compared to Yolia, what does that bastard amount to?"Let's let him live for a while!"Since Shye started guarding the Yallops' door, the number of people coming to propose decreased.

Chapter 722 Special Art of Breathing
This also highlighted that Marcus' realm far surpassed that of the Colemans, who claimed to be the top ancient family for a millennium. Alan and the others returned to their line respectfully.Marcus surveyed the group with a serious expression. "The technique I'm about to teach you is a special art of breathing. "Although it looks simple, mastering its essence will take at least a year. "Of course, as elite individuals carefully cultivated by your respective families, I believe you can grasp the basics in just a month."The excitement was evident on the faces of the individuals upon hearing what Marcus said. The commander-in-chief was personally teaching them a special art.It was a big opportunity for those eager to level up. After all, the commander-in-chief was all-powerful and mighty. Any technique he imparted to them was bound to lead to significant progress, even if it was the most basic one.Following that, Marcus began to teach them the special art of breathing.

The individuals all listened attentively as Marcus began his class. They appeared respectful and eager to learn. Marcus extended four fingers and said, "Before we officially start the lesson, I'd like to give you a lesson in morals. The name of this lesson shall be 'Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality.'"Marcus signaled Edwin and Leona to fetch a small blackboard. Marcus held the chalk and wrote the words, "Respect for Teachers and Esteem for Morality." His movements were powerful."Indeed, you all have what it takes to be proud due to your strengths, for you are all invincible in your respective regions. However, you came to Dragon Training Camp to seek breakthroughs and receive guidance at a higher level."Marcus surveyed the crowd and said, "But no matter how strong you all are, you should respect the instructor who guides you."Each of you is exceptionally intelligent.

"Yes! He must prove himself. Otherwise, I'm not convinced!""He dares to disregard the Meranian Wolf List top 100. If he can actually demonstrate such abilities, I'll pretend I never heard those words!"As Alan spoke, the others responded in agreement.Chad added, "It might be difficult for him to surpass every member of the Meranian Wolf List top 100, but at least he should have the qualifications to be among them, right?"The group noticed that Marcus remained silent, and their arrogance increased.Zakir was amused. "What's the matter? Are you backing down? In life, you need to follow the rules and not spout nonsense! "Don't act all big if you don't have what it takes!"Just then, Marcus spoke up. "You've all misunderstood. I didn't respond immediately because I was considering how to demonstrate my strength."After all, weaklings like you have never witnessed a true spectacle."To Marcus, these individuals were nothing but weaklings.

Alan and the others heard what Marcus said, and a playful expression appeared on their faces.How dare this kid challenge them?Alan squinted and said, "You can be our instructor, but you'll have to display enough strength to convince us."You probably can't reach the level of Merania's Four Gunlords and Gary."But you should at least reach the level of the Eight Warriors, right?"The others looked on with a look of expectation.They all looked at Marcus with mocking eyes.Chad, who was on the side, said, "Alan, how about we set a standard for this kid? Only those recognized by the members of the Meranian Wolf List are qualified to be our instructor!""Right!" Alan agreed.Merania's Four Gunlords, Gary, and the Eight Warriors all occupied a place in the Meranian Wolf List.It could be said that the top 100 of the Meranian Wolf List gathered the strongest 100 soldiers in the Meranian military.Being honored on the Meranian Wolf List top 100 was the dream of every Meranian sol
