It was crude, but this was youth! "Hmm! It seems I'm still a child at heart! It's a pity that I can't act that way in front of Gustav, or else it's not bad to come here as a student and have this sort of experience!" With this in mind, Fred threw the impromptu idea to the back of his mind. First, looking at the training room that had long since been disfigured, he slowly landed his gaze on Meldor's body and faintly said, "What are you going to do about this plot of land?" "Huh?" Meldor was first slightly stunned, but he reacted and hurriedly said, "I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it! Sir, don't worry, I'll pay for it tomorrow—no, today… No, right now! I'll get someone to fix it and make it the same way as before!" Despite saying all this, Meldor was actually terrified right now! He was afraid that Fred would be dissatisfied and that his own life would be in jeopardy. After all, just the aura from his glance and the way he made the training ground sink three feet into
Three hours later… In Area K, Training Room 1. At this moment, Rita was looking at Fred in front of her with a look of depression. She was pushing her waist out and asking, "You...you… What kind of crappy training program are you putting me through? Are you making fun of me?" "Oh? I have planned this training program for a long time. How could you say I’m making fun of you?" Fred said seriously. Rita did not appreciate this in the slightest. She grunted, "It's weird if you're not making fun of me! Do you think I don't know what the other teachers teach? When it comes to you, it's just running and more running. It’s been more than a month. You said that there’s a new training program today, but what you came up with...is actually just playing hide and seek? What is this if you're not teasing me?" After saying that, Rita still looked like she was not satisfied. If she did not know that she was no match for Fred's power both in terms of techniques or physical skills, she
Rita, on the other hand, was more blunt than Meldor. She immediately looked at Fred and spat, ''Are you kidding me?! You haven't taught me anything yet, and you're letting me spar with a warlord like him? Do you want me to get beaten up?" "Maybe!" Fred did not pay any attention to Rita’s outburst and just looked at Meldor. “Stop when I tell you to!" "I..." Seeing that Fred had spoken, Meldor naturally knew that he no longer had the power to refuse. He could only walk to the center of the training room in a depressed manner and say to Rita, "Okay… Pardon me!" "You...I..." Seeing that Meldor was really going to fight her, Rita was furious and looked at Fred. She hissed, "How can we fight like this? I won't do it!" "If you won't do it, get out!" This time, Fred no longer said any kind words. Instead, he let out a cold grunt and said, "I have never taken on a disciple in my life! You are just a student of mine, and you're still far from being a disciple! If you are
She dodged it? Rita's sudden evasion of his attack caused Meldor to be extremely surprised! After all, Meldor was a warlord of 3rd rank who had been cultivating for many years! Who was Rita? She was just a student of the warlord academy! From the start, she had only been in contact with martial arts for a little over a month! Even if Meldor was only using 30% of his strength at the moment, it was still not something that Rita should be able to dodge! "I...I dodged it?" In fact, it was not only Meldor who was shocked. Rita was also surprised at this moment. However, Meldor's attacks did not just end like this! Boom! If one kick missed, then another kick must be thrown! This time, Rita was directly struck by the kick and flew out backward. Although she was not seriously injured due to Meldor holding back, she still took a face full of dirt. "Was that a fluke?" Seeing his strike connect, Meldor finally let out a sigh of relief. He chalked up Rit
Boom! Only a burst of flying sand could be seen. With a single point of his foot, Meldor leaped out and attacked Rita with an even more lurid and accelerated aura than before! However, Meldor still chose Rita's shoulder as the target of his attack! One reason for this was that a strike to the shoulder would not lead to a fatal injury. Secondly, although the attack was aimed at the same place as before, Meldor did not think that with the extra speed from him using 40% of his strength, Rita would be able to dodge anyway. Despite this… Miracles often arose at such times! Meldor's attack was rapidly approaching Rita, while Rita stared at Meldor's attack without moving! Then… Just as the punch was about to touch her, her foot suddenly clicked. With extreme swiftness, she dodged the attack. Huh? The second time Rita evaded his attack, Meldor once again let out a puzzled gasp. Most importantly, Meldor realized that compared to the last time, this time the form
Missed!Missed again!‘Why do I keep missing?!’In the training room…The competition was still ongoing between Meldor Stern and Rita Stonemoss.Frankly, it was a stretch to call this a competition. After all, Meldor was a 3rd rank warlord, while Rita had only been exposed to martial arts for a little more than a month.There was still a huge gap between their abilities. Rita could only dodge Meldor’s attacks and could not fight back at all. Even if she somehow landed a hit, it would be like scratching an itch for Meldor and hardly dealing any damage at all.However, Meldor was still rather upset.When Fred stopped the battle, Meldor could not help but look at Fred and ask, "My lord, wh...why?""Speed takes priority for any warlord battle!" Fred said with a faint smile."Speed takes priority?"Meldor frowned slightly and said, "I thought a powerful force could take out ten men. Wasn’t that emphasized in a warlord battle?"On the side, Rita overheard this as well. Although s
Unexpectedly, someone stopped him as he walked out of the office."I hope you can spare time to talk!"Massimo, the big shot of this warlord academy, stood before Fred.Talk?Fred frowned slightly when he heard this.Before Fred could open his mouth, Massimo's face was already becoming darker. He slowly released his aura as he locked eyes with Fred. "In fact, I don't think you’ll reject me!"“Very well, then!" Fred nodded with a faint smile."Come with me, it's not convenient here!" Massimo promptly turned around and walked outside upon Fred’s agreement.Not long after, he brought Fred to an empty training room in the academy.Massimo turned around slowly as he glanced around at the empty training room. He flicked his sleeves violently then turned to look at Fred again. He said, "I assume you know why I called you out to talk?""Crystal?" Fred asked.It was not a difficult guess at all.From their first meeting, Massimo was hostile toward Fred. The source of this hostility
Killing intent!A thick killing intent appeared in Massimo's eyes, without bothering to conceal it at all!Massimo’s original plan was just to give Fred a warning. He wanted to let this piece of trash—who was a clown in his eyes—have a little self-awareness. He only wanted to remind Fred to not pay his dirty hands on something he did not deserve!In Massimo’s perception, a simple word from him should have Fred trembling before him. Fred might even regret his decisions so much that he would kneel and beg for mercy!Alas!On the contrary, Fred bluntly refused without showing the slightest bit of respect!Massimo, who had insolent manners, could never accept this!"You're a mere piece of trash! A flopping fool! An insignificant insect! How dare you hop around so arrogantly in front of someone like me?! Ha, did you really think I wouldn’t do anything to you just because we're in the warlord academy?"Just so you know, even though you and I are both teachers of this academy, we are
Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei
Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something! What if our luck was changed ju
What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w
Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl
"What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug
"No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a
"Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
