Rags to Riches Chapter 489 Poaching Talent
Having been recently recruited by Marcus as the Deputy Head of the Security Department at Tension Inc., Donald naturally possessed the authority to prevent activities involving the leakage of trade secrets."Excuse me, live streaming isn't permitted here."Upon noticing a female Internet celebrity stepping into Tension Inc.'s data room and showcasing everything on her live stream, Donald promptly intervened."Hey, who are you?" Chantelle, the Internet celebrity, sneered at Donald, wearing a contemptuous expression. "Do you even realize you're disrupting my live stream?"In my live stream, I connect with millions of fans. Can you handle the responsibility of disrupting that?""Leaking Tension Inc.'s trade secrets is a responsibility you can't bear either." Donald, unaffected by the Internet celebrity's attractiveness, asserted, "By the way, I'm Donald, Head of Security at Tension Inc.""Head of the Security Department?" Chantelle mocked, maintaining her contemptuous tone. "Isn
Rags to Riches Chapter 490 Such Audacity
Even though Vivian was pretty mad, she handled the matter with Courtney well. "Courtney, think about what Mr. Sandman said, okay? Even though you've signed a long-term contract with Tension Pictures, we can terminate it early if it's in your best interest.""Ms. Lorimer is indeed generous," Seth said with a smirk. "Ms. Paulsen, have you ever thought about checking out Easton United Corporation? We've got some sweet opportunities."Come on, there's no need to overthink it. The deal I'm throwing your way is too good to pass up anyway."Seth thought he had this in the bag. Contrary to his belief, Courtney shook her head and rejected the offer."No, thanks for the offer, Mr. Sandman. I think it's more suitable for me to stay and develop at Tension Pictures."Before this, Gareth and some others saw their aspirations crumble at Horizon Celestial, misled by the promise of a powerful conglomerate. It was a lesson still vivid in her memory.Seth's whole cocky vibe didn't sit well with
Rags to Riches Chapter 491 Riding the Popularity Wave
"Ms. Lorimer." At that moment, the secretary rushed in, telling Vivian, "I did some digging, and it seems Easton United Corporation wasn't just here for a Tension Inc. tour."Seth just discovered that the movie breaking box office records happened to be produced by Tension Pictures, so he decided to swing by.""Easton United Corporation's got some shady plans," Marcus said coldly. "That Seth guy tried to poach talent in front of my wife and then forcefully acquire Tension Pictures. These guys are outrageous, making moves whenever they feel like it. Do they think the film industry is their playground?"Seeing Marcus fume, the secretary wisely chose to stay quiet.After all, the secretary had also found that Easton United Corporation was a prominent player in the Merania domestic film industry. Moreover, Seth had serious connections and was ruthless. He was not someone to be taken lightly."Oh, by the way," Marcus continued as the secretary stayed silent, "You mentioned these folk
Rags to Riches Chapter 492 The Audacious Chantelle
Upon hearing Seth's words, Chantelle and the other Internet celebrities instantly lit up with enthusiasm as if they had just gotten a shot of adrenaline.Despite having boasted millions of followers, it was essential to acknowledge that a considerable portion of them was strategically amassed by Easton United Corporation. Furthermore, within this million-strong following, there were quite a few inactive or "zombie" accounts. As a result, the actual number of genuinely engaged fans might not be as extensive as the apparent million.In the event of a sudden surge in popularity, these influencers would not only see a substantial increase in new followers but also quickly enhance their standing within their respective circles. This would lead to a significant influx of financial opportunities."We trust you, Mr. Sandman, if you say so!" Chantelle was the first to speak, adding, "Even though life can be a bit challenging, enduring hardships is what distinguishes us, right?"The othe

Chantelle was dead set on barging in. If she chickened out now, she'd lose her fans for sure."Who are you calling a stinky soldier?" A commanding voice rang out from behind Chantelle.It was Marcus, who had just arrived at the Grand Capital War Zone.When Marcus entered, he didn't reach out to commanders like Dominic. Instead, he noticed a swarm of Internet celebrities lugging cameras around, turning the military camp into a real circus. It was a far cry from its usual serious vibe.Wearing a grim expression, Marcus approached Chantelle after hearing her loud shouting.He was particularly ticked off by Chantelle's plan to live stream the internal structure of a heavy tank. Marcus understood that if these classified military assets were exposed, it would inevitably allow hostile forces to catch a glimpse. Once these military assets hit the battlefield, they would lose their deterrent power, essentially becoming nothing more than a heap of scrap metal.Seeing Marcus in casual
Rags to Riches Chapter 494 How Dare You
"This is absolutely insane!" The manager couldn't contain his anger. "You didn't just crush a phone. You shattered Chantelle's massive fan base!""You, a mere soldier, dare to treat Chantelle like this? Brace yourself for some serious retaliation!"However, he failed to realize the terrifying capability of someone who could single-handedly crush a phone."This isn't your place to talk!" Marcus gave another kick, forcing the manager to kneel. "Address me when you're on your knees!""You're too arrogant!""You're just a mere soldier. How dare you!"The rest of the staff condemned Marcus, but each one was kicked to their knees by him."What? Not satisfied?" Marcus looked at the kneeling staff coldly. "If you're not satisfied, let's do this another way!"He continued, "I'll admit defeat if you can withstand my punch!"As they witnessed Marcus's ruthlessness, those who were initially defiant quickly averted their eyes and lowered their heads.They fell silent.The soldiers found

"Hahaha, this is truly hilarious!" Marcus burst into laughter upon hearing Edward's retort. "Colonel Edward, as a military man, don't you know that Merania's soldiers are renowned worldwide? Do they need these chaotic people to promote them?""Just listen to that!" Seth seized the moment. "Colonel Edward, he's calling us chaotic. Is this how the Grand Capital War Zone views Easton United Corporation?""This is outrageous!" Edward nodded. "How dare you insult others!" He ordered, "Apologize now!""I don't perceive you that way. It's your current actions that are giving off this impression," Marcus retorted."Listen up," Marcus continued, "First, Colonel Edward, you violated military regulations by allowing them to film live broadcasts in the Grand Capital War Zone."Second, these so-called Internet celebrities included many crucial military secrets in their live broadcasts from the Grand Capital War Zone."Third, this influencer named Chantelle openly insulted the guards protect
Rags to Riches Chapter 496 The Chaotic Profit Platform
"Hey, Colonel Samson, what brings you here?" Edward quickly said in greeting. "Aren't you supposed to be leading the off-road training at this time?"Although Edward held the rank of colonel and served as the public relations minister, he had no real authority in the military camp. The hierarchy here was based on actual influence.For instance, Gary held the same rank as Edward, but as the commander of special forces, he outranked Edward significantly.Edward's role was primarily in cultural and literary activities within the military.Gary angrily asked, "Edward, what are you doing?""I'm restraining him," Edward said as he pointed at Marcus. "His identity is unclear and suspicious. He's interfering with Easton United Corporation's filming of the Military Reality Show for a national audience in the Grand Capital War Zone!"Gary skeptically observed Seth and the others. Chantelle and the other Internet celebrities were dressed flamboyantly and carrying cameras. They seemed out

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

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.

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.

Chapter 719 I Am Stronger Than All Members of the Meranian Wolf List Top 100
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
