All the eyes at the wedding were drawn to the three items covered with dark cloth. Although the dark cloth covered the items, their large size was evident. Lincoln, who did not understand the situation, even commented, "Indeed, the Colemans live up to their reputation as the top ancient family in Merania. They certainly have grand gestures! "Such a massive wedding gift must be valuable!"The crowd showed strange expressions after hearing what Lincoln said. Even if they were not smart, they guessed that these three gifts, covered with dark fabric, were not something good, and yet Lincoln remained enthusiastic.Sean smiled and said with a playful attitude, "They're not valuable, but I believe you, especially Marcus, will appreciate them." Sean snapped his fingers and commanded, "Uncover the gifts."The dark fabric on the first item was removed by one of Sean's attendants. Everyone showed expressions of shock upon seeing what was underneath. Lincoln's previously uncontrol
"My vision of a husband is someone who will never yield to any tyranny!" Vivian said while looking at Marcus. Marcus said with equal affection while looking at her, "Don't worry, Vivian. I don't submit to anybody—let alone kneel to a spoiled young master from the Colemans. "You don't need to worry. The Colemans would never dare harm me." Vivian nodded and replied, "I believe in you. Let's not dwell on these unpleasant matters. Don't let these people affect our wedding." Marcus agreed. "Yes, indeed. Let's continue with the wedding." The wedding ceremony continued.When they returned to the stage, Vivian asked, "Honey, you mentioned you had a surprise for me. "Now that it's time, why don't you reveal it?" Marcus chuckled. "Haha! Of course, I have something for you." Sebastiana then approached and handed Marcus an exquisite box. Marcus opened it, revealing a sparkling ring that he placed on Vivian's finger. "Wow! It's so beautiful!" Vivian exclaimed. It was a frigid
Although Marcus revealed his identity and showcased his ace of being the secret boss of Phisteele Corporation, it shocked the people of the Lorimers and the Childes. However, they immediately realized that even if Marcus was the secret boss of Phisteele Corporation, it wouldn't make a difference.Undoubtedly, the identity of the secret boss of Phisteele Corporation held a prominent position in the entire capital.Such an identity could even exert influence on Easton. This was evident from Dawson personally leading Easton's 50 prominent royal families to attend the wedding.However, the key problem was the presence of the Colemans. In front of the Colemans, Marcus' identity as the secret boss of Phisteele Corporation seemed insignificant. Especially considering the complex grievances and entanglements between Marcus and the Colemans, The Lorimers and the Childes believed that Marcus confronting the Colemans would lead to a tragic outcome.The secret boss of Phisteele Corpo
What Marcus said was a serious blow to them.He was essentially expressing contempt for Nora, Norman, and Shirley, the leaders of the three families."You are really like a stubborn stone in a pit. Marcus, this is how you will be for the rest of your life!" Marcus not paying any attention to her lengthy tirade made Nora furious."Other than Phisteele Corporation, you have no other notable achievements!""The Phisteele Corporation is enough to crush the Lorimers, isn't it?" Marcus responded calmly."How dare you!" Nora was so angry she brushed her sleeve.Norman said diplomatically, "Marcus, you are young and inexperienced. Even if ego is important to you, there are times when you should let it go."What's the point of ego when your life is at stake?" Marcus cast a meaningful look at Norman and clarified, "I'd rather lose my life than give up my dignity. Allow me to emphasize again: dignity and ego are two different concepts." Just then, Vivian intervened. She supported Marcu
After three rounds of drinks, the conversation once again turned to the Colemans."Marcus. I always knew that your future achievements would be limitless. That you could reach the height of a commander-in-chief is something I hadn't anticipated." Augustus Land, Marcus' former mentor, was currently the only military officer who dared to address Marcus by his name."Well, you have a keen eye, Mr. Land." Marcus smiled."It's not just my keen eye. Your talent and personal efforts are undeniable. Although you currently hold the position of commander-in-chief, the Colemans are no simple opponents." Augustus paused."Do you know just how strong the Colemans are?"Marcus shook his head and replied, "I don't."Despite spending a few years with the Colemans, he was always treated as an outsider and suffered from the abuse of the Colemans' subordinates. His information about the Colemans was limited.Instead, he harbored deep resentment toward them.Marcus thought for a moment and asked
At this moment, Troy walked in. Upon seeing Troy, Oliver immediately recognized him. "Aren't you Sean's sidekick?"l"How dare you still come here? Do you want to fight us?" Oliver clenched his fists fist. He was ready to strike Troy.Troy quickly stopped him. "Hold on! I didn't come here to fight with you."Oliver relaxed his fist and grunted. "Then why are you here? Speak up or get lost."Troy ignored Oliver and walked straight to Marcus. He grinned and said, "Mr. Sean thought you'd be enjoying your wedding night. Unexpectedly, you still have the leisure to drink with your friends here. What a waste, considering how beautiful your wife is!"Marcus gave Troy a side-eye. He said coldly, "You talk too much. I'll give you ten seconds to state your purpose."Skip the nonsense."Ten, nine ..." Marcus began counting.Troy said, "You have no sense of humor. Fine. What I want to tell you is that the person who saved your life multiple times six years ago is now in grave danger. Are
Meanwhile, at a mountain lodge twenty miles away from the wedding site, stood Sean's stronghold in the capital. Initially the property of the wealthiest person in the capital, it disappeared after the arrival of Wallmark Holdings. Wallmark Holdings naturally seized this mansion. At this moment, Sean sat on a recliner under an umbrella. He was enjoying himself while drinking wine.On the table beside Sean, there was an array of delicious dishes. The scene appeared harmonious. However, just a few steps away from Sean, on a tree covered in blood, Teagan was suspended by a rope with his head down and feet up. Teagan's body was covered in wounds, Several of his wounds were continuously bleeding. A pool of blood had formed on the ground below Teagan's head. If this continued, Teagan would die as his blood drained away even without Sean having to do anything.Sean took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "What a splendid sight! Drinking the strongest wine and watching
"If it wasn't because of Teagan giving you several chances before, I'm afraid you wouldn't even have the qualifications to come into this world!"How does it feel to see your savior suffer such inhumane torture now?" Sean laughed shamelessly and crazily."Mr. Teagan …"Marcus couldn't help but feel heartbroken, seeing Teagan hanging upside down with blood flowing like a river on the ground."Mr. Marcus …" Teagan's gradually weakening voice sounded. "Mr. Marcus, it's so good to be able to see you!"But you must not stay here for too long. You have to leave quickly …"Marcus couldn't help but feel moved, seeing how Teagan still cared for his safety in such a situation.Marcus pointed at Sean and said angrily, "Sean, I'm here now. Aren't you going to release him?""You're so shameless, huh?" Sean laughed. His lips hooked up slightly as he continued, "Do I have to release him just because you came?""I can release him if you want me to. But that depends on whether you're strong en
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. 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
Shye exuded a murderous killing intent. "Yannis, come with me to the Yallops."Starting today, I, Shye Youd, will be stationed at the Yallops' door every day. I will beat anyone who dares to propose to Yolia to death."Yannis nodded and asked, "Understood, Mr. Youd. What about that bastard?"Shye grunted and said, "A man's revenge is never too late. 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. Shye chased them away before they could even enter the door.After all, Shye was the second-ranked bachelor in the capital, and no one dared to offend him.Just like that, Shye had guarded the Yallops' door for a month.Finally, the Yallops had peace.…Meanwhile, Marcus continued to spend his time with Vivian every day during the month. As for Jill, she was responsible for managing Phisteele Corporation and Tension Incorporated. Jill was a cap
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. You should know that Chief Commander Wall would not send an incapable person or someone from
"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. Despite being invincible in their res
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
