"That's where you're wrong. Your goading won't work on me. I refuse because everything we've struggled for was achieved together with my brothers behind me. I won't waste all their hard work for my own sake, unlike you and your selfishness."

This statement was met with thunderous applause and cheers.

Listen to that - willing to be branded a coward to protect his team's interests. That's what a real man's sense of duty and responsibility looks like. And look at Peyton - he'll stop at nothing, using every dirty underhanded trick just to accomplish his own goal.

Peyton was now just a clown, leaping about only to earn everyone's contempt. Even if he somehow won the game, it would be no honorable victory.

Even Miles yelled out encouragement from the stands. Not only were this kid's skills unmatched, but his calm and principled approach to dealing with issues was outstanding. Recruiting someone like him would be a huge boon - Miles could envision the rise of a future sports star, no, basket

    The ball was in Peyton's hands again. He swore not to be careless with this shot - the kid was clearly abnormal. He had to be 10 times, 100 times more vigilant, or he could flip over and drown in a gutter without even knowing how he died.This time, instead of driving straight to the hoop, he chose to try a new technique he had just learned recently. Though not skilled at it yet, it was his only resort when facing a powerful foe, otherwise he was doomed today. The humiliation would banish him from Nova City for good. He used his body to block Justin, constantly bumping to force him out of position. The disorientation could create an opportunity to score before Justin even realized what was happening.But trying this on Justin was thinking too simply. With X-ray Vision and a Steel Body, what chance did a mortal flesh bag have at budging a mountain?Justin merely slapped his wrist, and Peyton felt an electric jolt as half his body went numb, the ball involuntarily dropping from his gra

    Hearing this, the Finance students reacted in shock. So this was the provincial team's head coach personally inviting Justin to become their new captain?That meant Justin would be replacing Peyton's position, rocketing up the ranks.The Phys Ed students gazed at Justin with envy, jealousy and hatred. This was their long sought after dream opportunity, which they had struggled bitterly to attain, yet Justin just strolled in, leading this group of Finance newbies for a single game, and easily obtained what they desperately coveted. For Justin it was like plucking fruit from a tree.The Finance students also watched enviously, but were more happy for Justin's sake. This brought great honor to their Nova City University, to their Finance Department. One of them becoming captain of the provincial basketball team, what an amazing feat! Let's see those Phys Ed jerks dare to strut arrogantly in front of them anymore, haha! Just thinking about it felt so satisfying!But Justin didn't see it t

    "Don't mind him, Justin. The old geezer's always like this. Come now, time to eat. Our family is poor, unlike you rich folk. We don't have any exotic delicacies to entertain you. But these dishes are all my specialties - not to brag, but their taste rivals those famous 5-star hotel chefs, I guarantee!Let me tell you, this steamed fish and braised pork were made by Bella herself! Our girl only cooks with her own hands on holidays and special occasions." Bella's mother chattered on, oblivious to her daughter's deepening blush, soon red as a beet as she buried her face in embarrassment, the very image of a shy maiden."Mom, stop it! It's not like I never cook for you all. Must you make me sound like some idle lounging girl?" Bella mumbled almost inaudibly, voice dripping with charming shyness that made Justin's eyes pop out. My heavens, she's so gorgeous!"Aiyo, now the brat's shy! Enough, just come eat, Justin."Naturally, Justin needed no second invitation, washing his hands before s

    Seeing the people at the table, Nicole's gaze lingered on Justin in faint confusion, but without much reaction.When she saw Bella however, her face lit up as she gushed, "This must be Bella right? My how you've blossomed into a beauty! Sister-in-law, am I right? I could tell since she was little that Bella was a natural beauty. Just look at her now, a refined graceful lady far exceeding those TV starlets!""Bella, do you still remember auntie Nicole? You used to love the scallion pancakes and osmanthus cakes I made, remember?"Bella did have some vague impressions, so she promptly stood and affectionately called her Auntie, immediately delighting Nicole as she fluttered around excitedly, makeup almost shaking off from her thrilled motions.During all this, Justin kept eating without pause, completely indifferent towards this woman, not even bothering to get acquainted. Rather than waste time exchanging pleasantries with two strangers, he'd prefer to eat more mouthfuls. Mm, this brais

    "Yes, we must be courteous," Marcus smiled coldly. "Tell me, brother, what do you think of my gift? Is it adequate to your discerning eye?""I have no opinion on the matter," Justin replied amusedly. "It's your gift to give as you see fit. It makes no difference to me. But since you insist, I'd say it fits the description of 'more money than sense'. Yes, that summarizes it perfectly."The mother and son glowered at Justin's blunt assessment. But they swallowed their anger and forced out icy laughs."From your attire, you clearly aren't from a wealthy family yourself," the woman simpered. "Ah, the curse of poverty - it limits so many imaginations. Yet the ignorant persist in pretending knowledge. A true mark of poor character."Now it was not just Justin roaring with laughter, but Bella too hiding her smile behind a hand. Garcia's parents looked utterly mortified.They dared mock Justin for lacking money? Hilarious! The scion of Nova City's foremost tycoon family being ridiculed as poo

    Just then, Justin finished his meal and lazily drawled, "How do you know I didn't bring any gifts? Who said I don't have valuable presents? Shoving gifts at you the moment I entered would be tacky. I prefer to wait until after dinner to present my gifts. What can you do about it?""Keep up your arrogant act, boy. We can all see your empty hands. Where could you be hiding any gifts? Don't embarrass yourself trying to save face. Just admit the truth. Uncle here won't laugh at you for it."Marcus was still sneering coldly.But in that instant, Justin produced several boxes out of nowhere, as if by magic. They were plain boxes that looked rather casual."Hahaha! Those are your gifts? What rubbish! You bought them from a roadside stall, didn't you? To think you'd actually present such trash with a straight face. Hahahaha! This is too funny."Justin ignored him and selected three small boxes. They seemed to contain nothing large inside.He respectfully offered the boxes to Bella's father, s

    When they saw the company valuation, they plopped down on their rears in shock. Over $100 billion! Even for a large Libertas firm, that figure was astronomical. And it had doubled under Justin in just half a year! Insane growth! This kid was a monster.Seeing the duo so flabbergasted satisfied Justin greatly. Some Cambridge University elite - just an idiot second generation only capable of deceiving others with fakes. I may not have attended Cambridge, but Nova City University didn't turn out too shabby either.In the end, the disgraced mother and son slunk away without another word about marriage proposals. After losing face so utterly today, staying would be sheer humiliation. Besides, with Nova City's tycoon already welcomed like family and favored by Bella, the implications were obvious. This was practically the fiance meeting the in-laws! Their meager connection meant nothing before this magnate. Even if they spoke up, it would only invite ridicule.After the pair left, Justin c

    "New mission alert: life-threatening danger detected near Master, immediate medical intervention required. Reward for successful rescue: 10,000 points. Failure has no penalty." The System had spoken - though even without its prompt, Justin would have stepped in to help. But the mission notice made him even more vigilant. The System no longer triggered missions casually, so this was no trivial matter. One look and Justin knew things were seriously wrong.Bella hastily grabbed a medicine bottle, only to find it completely empty. This was her friend's lifesaving medication, and now there was none left - further delay could prove fatal.As Bella panicked, Justin stepped over to check the girl's pulse. He was shocked to find her body filled with an inexorable icy energy, almost freezing her blood solid. No wonder she was so cold - it was this inner chill wreaking havoc.Wasting no time, Justin immediately took out silver needles and inserted them at critical points on her head and back. T

    Soon after ingesting it, the old man coughed and retched up a pool of black blood, gradually regaining clarity. When he lifted his gaze to see his eldest before him, he trembled in excitement, hands fumbling to caress Justin's face."My boy, you've come back! Where have you been all this time? Do you know what chaos ensued in the family during your absence?""Old master, please calm yourself. I'm not your son. Listen as I explain everything."With that, they helped the old man out of his coffin and into an armchair. The same confusion swirled in everyone's minds. Justin then removed his disguise, reverting to his original appearance, and carefully reiterated the events leading up to this moment. Though incredulous at first, the fantastic tale made sense upon reflection.The old man too accepted this was not his real firstborn, but rejoiced at his second son's return. The two siblings knelt before their father, weeping uncontrollably like three-year-olds. The old man beamed with gran

    Naturally the pretender had no knowledge of this, so he pondered briefly before replying."I believe it was the left foot.""Wrong. I wasn't actually bitten because Mother saved me in time, though she gashed her left arm in the process. You didn't know about that incident, did you?" "I'm sure the esteemed guests here remember the day my mother's arm was bleeding profusely when I was seven. Uncle, I recall you drove her to get treated at the hospital. Am I right?""Yes, yes, I remember now. The mistress did injure her arm back then, and I personally took her to the hospital. She specifically instructed me not to inform anyone else, to avoid worry. There's no mistake, he is the young master, the true heir.""Hmph, you think such hearsay can prove I'm fake? I could just as well say you bribed the uncle to deceive everyone. Nobody else witnessed that old incident anyway, so you can make up whatever story you want.""Still unconvinced? Then I'll reveal one more fact known only to my clos

    "I have just the thing." Zoey fished out a USB drive containing a song sung by her elder brother. His rich, magnetic voice was as pleasing as his looks, outclassing many professional singers. "System, can you modify my voice? Use his as a template and get to 80% similarity.""Master can purchase the Voice Mimicry skill for 100,000 points. With it, you can imitate anyone's voice to 99% accuracy."Justin was intrigued, though the skill's price gave him pause. But with his endless fortune of points, the cost was trivial.After purchasing, vocal techniques instantly filled his mind. He softly hummed along to the recording, astonishing the siblings. With just a line, his cadence and tone perfectly matched their brother's. Between looks and voice, even the real deal before them wouldn't be distinguishable from this imitation."Well, can I pass?""More than pass! Let me get you one of brother's outfits too, then we can head for the estate and expose that fraud!"Now garbed in Miles' clothi

    Justin paid no mind to his friends' envious gazes as he followed the woman inside and took a seat. She sashayed over, hips swaying, and poured him a cup of tea. Her alluring figure and bewitching aura stirred desires within Justin. He couldn't help it - she was too tempting. Though Justin had his share of women, they were innocent girls, no match for the mature allure of this femme fatale. If not for knowing she spelled trouble, he would have made her part of his harem. A beauty like her didn't deserve to be wasted on others.While he was lost in thought, the woman slinked back over with a folder in hand. She took out some photos and passed them to Justin.Seeing the man in the photos, Justin shot up in shock, hands trembling. He quickly calmed himself to avoid losing face. But his astonishment was understandable.The man looked identical to him, like two peas in a pod - just more mature with a refined, gentlemanly bearing. Even in the simple photos, he exuded a carefree elegance.

  • Chapter 443 The Thorny Rose

    Rose's gaze never left Justin. As she watched, his image seemed to overlay and merge with that of a man in his thirties from her memories - her brother, who had disappeared over ten years ago. She had come to this city to search for him. But despite her efforts, there had been no trace. Finding someone who bore such an uncanny resemblance sparked new hope within her. "Go check his background thoroughly. Find out his connection to my brother. The drink is his tonight." At Rose's order, a man behind her swiftly departed. Rose then headed up to the stage and cut the deafening music. Justin's dancing slowed to a stop as all eyes turned to the elegant woman, curious what exquisite concoction she would produce tonight.Rose surveyed the array of bottles before her. She selected a bottle of Spirytus Rektyfikowany - pure grain alcohol known as "life water", the strongest vodka in the world. This she mixed with some fruit juices in casual pours before picking up the glass and descending fr

    "Oh, it's just a simple little trick, that's all. But now this is a true Blood-Sweat Horse, the finest of steeds. I've decided to keep him for myself. In a couple days at my wedding, I'll ride him down the streets in my finest wedding clothes, with camera crews from my two livestreaming companies recording everything. I want the whole country, nay, the whole world to see my spectacular wedding!""Holy hell, that's brilliant! Why didn't I think of that? Riding a legendary steed in the wedding parade - that's big face for sure! Hey, I'm taking back my decision to sell him. You just name your price, anything, and the horse is yours. Do we have a deal?""Adrian Webb, you must be dreaming. Even your toes can think well enough to know that's never going to happen. First you insult the poor beast, then when he turns into a marvel, you want to claim him? Have you no shame?"Adrian was left speechless by Justin's rebuke. In the end he had no choice but to give up.

    Adrian panicked; the money was trivial, but he dreaded the horse suddenly collapsing, shaming him badly, or throwing him off."Run properly, beast! Or I'll really whip you!" He lashed its hindquarters a few times. The horse neighed painfully but sped up again.Seeing the speed return, Adrian finally relaxed. Half the track remained. He just wanted the horse to finish the rest quickly, no more mishaps. Otherwise today would be terribly embarrassing. "Hey, this won't do! I've caught up to you, will overtake you soon! I said your horse was no good!""Nonsense, he just ate something disagreeable, needs to digest it. He'll run properly again immediately, heh, you've certainly lost today!" "I give up, even now you're still stubborn. Fine, if you insist on going on, then bet on! Just don't blame me later if you get tossed off and hurt your butt or face."Justin continued controlling his old steed to speed up. It ran faster and faster, gaining momentum ceaselessly. Its aura was like the ki

    "Good lord, you dare scam me!" Adrian was furious and kicked the short fat worker in the stomach, knocking him over."Mr. Webb, you wrong me! I really did import this Sweatblood from overseas, and had experts examine it too. They said it's extremely healthy, the most robust horse in my stable! How could it be fake, let alone injured? Don't you trust me? I've never made a mistake before, and certainly never been negligent working for you. Please don't be fooled by ill-intentioned people!""Oh? So you're saying I'm an ill-intentioned villain?" "I wouldn't dare, you're Mr. Webb's friend, I wouldn't offend you. But I must say, I've always worked in good conscience, never doing such swindling. This horse is truly healthy. If you insist it's sick, I can't do anything about it.""Seems you still don't believe me. Then let's bet on it. I'll pick a horse I deem good, we'll race your horse against mine, and the result will show if I'm speaking nonsense or not!"Justin spread his hands, looki

He had sneaked out today after bribing his dad, and with Lucas Webb whispering into his ear, Kennedy wouldn't punish him."Hahaha, never thought I'd become friends with Adrian Webb one day.
