Chapter 1073Chapter 1073 A Humiliating Defeat
The shell-shocked crowd stared at Edgar’s broken bronze handbell.
Is this still a sacred item? How could it be destroyed so easily?
The murderous intent from the handbell dissipated, and the draconic essence returned to Jared’s body.
Its bicolor glow disappeared without a trace.
The entire place fell into silence as everyone stared at the scene in disbelief.
Many people in the crowd swallowed nervously and appeared breathless.
Everyone’s gazes fell on Jared.
Zion stared at Jared, mesmerized. He exclaimed, “Jared’s magical item is far more powerful than we
could ever imagine!”
Others had begun shooting Jared greedy stares like Zion.
Jared could not care less about their attention. Instead, he looked coldly at Edgar and asked, “Where’s
your trump card now?”
As he spoke, he directed a burst of murderous intent into his Dragonslayer Sword, which he stabbed
toward Edgar.
Edgar turned tail and ran for his life, throwing all his pride out the window.
Jared’s abilities had utterly extinguished any fighting spirit left in Edgar.
Swoosh!The sword slashed Edgar’s back and left a deep, bloody wound. Edgar stumbled and fell head-first to
the ground.
Jared kept his Dragonslayer Sword and lifted Edgar off the ground.
He muttered, “This is all the Deragon family’s eldest son amounts to.”
Then, he slapped Edgar hard, causing the latter’s face to swell instantly.
After that, Jared drawled, “Admit defeat and bark like a dog.”
His words sent shockwaves through the crowd. No one expected Jared to humiliate Edgar after
defeating him.
They wondered if he was trying to become sworn enemies with the Deragons.
Edgar fumed, “Don’t be so smug, Jared. I—”
Slap!
Jared mercilessly slapped the young man before he could finish his sentence.
Gobsmacked, Edgar sputtered, “Jared, I—”
Slap!
Edgar’s face was swollen beyond recognition.
Ryker could not watch this any longer and leaped to his feet. “Stop! Stop it right now!”He exuded a murderous aura.
“This is a duel, Mr. Ryker. Are you trying to break the rules?” Theodore bellowed when he saw Ryker’s
reaction.
He feared Ryker would behave recklessly and suddenly attack Jared.
Fury clouded Ryker’s judgment after he saw Jared beating up his helpless son. “Who cares about the
rules?”
Before Ryker could lift a finger, two gusts of aura charged at him, so powerful that they could only come
from Top Level Martial Arts Grandmasters.
Howard sneered at the Deragon family’s patriarch and asked, “You’re the head of the Deragons. Are
you shameless enough to fight Jared two-on-one?”
Narrowing his eyes dangerously, Ryker boomed, “This is none of your business, Howard! Our families
have never stood in each other’s ways. Scram!”
“D*mn you! You old thing! I was being respectful to you, and you’re scolding me instead. Don’t make
me destroy the Deragon family!”
Howard was not scared of Ryker despite his weak abilities. After all, he had the Dunn family and his
father backing him.
“You’re asking for it!” Ryker exploded.
He could not believe Howard was belittling him in front of so many people.
Howard had brought two Top Level Martial Arts Grandmasters with him. Once they noticed Ryker was
about to act, they quickly shielded Howard behind them.The atmosphere tensed immediately in anticipation of a big fight.
Zion was left with no choice but to declare, “Everyone, stop it!”
novelbinIf both parties started fighting, it would surely become sensational news, which would make it back to
Mr. Sanders. As the president of the Warriors Alliance, Zion would have a tough time explaining how he
let the situation get out of hand.
Worse, if any officials were eventually involved, they could shut the Warriors Alliance for good.
Zion added, “Go back to your seats. Do you have no regard for the president of the Warrior Alliance?”
His expression hardened, and he exuded an intimidating aura that spurred several people back to their
seats.
