Chapter 553: I Bet on It!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this moment, the Youngblood family’s martial artists led by the white-haired old man had shocked expressions on their faces.
The white-robed youth sitting on the high platform was actually so terrifying!
With just one sentence, Commissioner Bentley Johnson bowed before him, and Special Envoy Jordyn Quimby lowered his head.
Everyone from the Youngblood family had extremely pale faces as they left this place in a sorry state.
When they turned around.
Braydon Neal’s calm voice rang out, “The Youngblood family’s martial artists interfered with the Hamptons martial arts examination. All Youngblood family examinees will have their examination results revoked.”
“What?”
The white-haired old man’s body shook. There were more than ten children from the Youngblood family who were partic.i.p.ating in the martial arts examination.
It was over!
If they were unable to pa.s.s the martial arts examination and enter the capital, they could only live in the provincial capital for the rest of their lives.
This was the punishment!
In the end, Braydon still interfered with the martial arts exam.
The Youngblood family’s candidates’ results were deemed invalid, which was equivalent to being eliminated.
The punishment was severe.
The Youngblood family was so arrogant that they wanted special privileges. They pressured Sammy Dudley and the others to force the Central Plains main team to eliminate Charles Lansky!
There was only one purpose for doing this!
Once Charles was eliminated, he would lose the qualification to be a candidate for the combat examination and become a small martial artist that no one cared about. He would definitely be killed by the Youngblood family!
Charles had beaten Jett Youngblood up and humiliated the entire Youngblood family.
How could the Youngblood family let him off!
However, as long as Charles pa.s.sed the martial arts examination and went to the capital, the Youngblood family in the provincial capital would not be able to touch him.
In the forest examination arena, Jett was beaten until he was on the verge of death. His head was like a pig’s head, and his was losing consciousness. He had completely lost his ability to fight.
This meant that even if Braydon did not say that the Youngblood family’s results were invalid, Jett would still be eliminated.
Charles stretched and said calmly, “Alright, if I kill you, my results will be considered invalid. It’s not worth it to do that for a piece of trash like you!” After saying that, the other examinees had already left.
How could a group of warrior level examinees dare to provoke Charles, an eighth-level warlord?
Heather Sage’s bright eyes watched all of this, and her cherry lips opened slightly. “Is this what a martial artist is like?”
“Of course, in the outside world, the Central Plains main team doesn’t care about the battles between martial artists. As long as you don’t disturb civilians, no one will care if you quietly kill other martial artists! ” Charles spoke the cruel truth between martial artists.
Regarding this matter, the capital was conflicted.
On one hand, it was to suppress martial artists and prevent the number of martial artists from being too high.
This was because martial artists were not a stable bunch!
Once there were too many martial artists, there would be more and more conflicts between them and ordinary people, and it would easily cause turmoil in the world.
On the other hand, the capital also hoped to produce high-level martial artists.
Specifically, king-level martial artists
After all, they could live for 300 years. Why would they mix with ordinary people? If they angered the dark division and the governor office, they would kill him.
It was not worth it at all!
Plus, king level characters all had connections. If you provoked them, they would not even need to personally take action, they would just turn around and use their connections. There would be a large number of people to deal with someone.
After all, who would not want a favor from a king!
Heather shook her head as she witnessed all of this. She knew that Braydon had not been trying to scare her.
Battles between martial artists were normal.
It might not be a bad thing to be an ordinary person.
Ginny Neal’s bright eyes were filled with envy. “Big brother, you’re so amazing! ”
“Your brother is a powerful big shot. Even the commander kneels before him.
That’s my goal.”
Charles chuckled and said, “But it seems that I made the right bet!”
“What did you bet on?” Heather held Ginny’s hand, and they left the area.
Charles chose to go with them and said playfully, “I bet on your ident.i.ties. Last year, someone from a big family in the provincial capital forcefully interfered with the martial arts examination. They interfered because a rogue martial artist crippled one of their genius disciples.”
“The aristocratic family that forcefully interfered with the martial arts examination last year was the family behind Jett Youngblood?”
Heather frowned slightly, her gaze landing on Charles’s face.
She had a feeling that that rogue martial artist and Charles knew each other.
Charles smiled and nodded. “Yes, it was the Youngblood family. However, everyone is used to it. The big aristocratic families all over the world are like this. They do things without any restraint. If it weren’t for the suppression of the five main teams, these families would probably be even more unscrupulous.”
“What happened to that rogue martial artist in the end?”
Heather asked.
“What?” Charles was stunned.
“I’m talking about that unaffiliated martial artist last year. After crippling a candidate from the Youngblood family, what happened to him?” Heather asked.
Charles fell silent.
He clenched his fists and remained silent for a long time. Heather held Ginny’s hand and stopped, saying softly, “He… is dead?”
“No, he’s been crippled. The Youngblood family crippled him.”
Charles let out a breath of turbid air, raised his head, and laughed lightly, “Last July, on the last day of the martial arts examination, the Youngblood family rudely interfered with the martial examination. They said that he was too harsh and revoked his examination results on the spot. Then, he lost the protection of his ident.i.ty as an examinee. The Youngblood family crippled him that night itself!
“Therefore, I took another gamble for this year’s martial arts examination. I bet on your ident.i.ties. I bet on the young man behind the two of you. I bet that his background is shocking, so he can probably suppress the Youngblood family!
“So, I crippled Jett Youngblood!
“Looks like I made the right bet. The white-robed young man outside stopped the Youngblood family. Otherwise, my results would have been revoked, and I would have been expelled from the examination hall!
“Then, I would have lost my ident.i.ty as an examinee. I would have ended up like the examinee from last year. I would have either been crippled by the
Youngblood family or killed!”
Charles, this chatterbox, spoke of his bet with a calm tone and relaxed mood.
Heather could not help but say, “If you lose the bet, you’ll end up very miserable.”
“I know, but I have to do this. I have to avenge my brother!”
Charles clenched his fists and said hoa.r.s.ely.
“The martial artist who was crippled by the Youngblood family last year was your brother?” Heather said in shock.
This question made Charles nod lightly.
Outside, Braydon was staring at his laptop and heard everything.
Sammy and the others lowered their heads, not daring to breathe too loudly. Hatcher Murphy and the others knew that things were going to get serious!
“Is what he said true?” Braydon asked.
“Last year, during the martial arts examination, I went to the capital’s governor office with Zayn for a meeting. We weren’t in the provincial capital, and the person presiding over the martial examination was Commissioner
Johnson.”
Captain Murphy threw the blame on someone else.
But that was indeed the case.
Commissioner Bentley Johnson’s face turned green. He bowed and said, “This matter is very complicated. Regarding what Charles said, I only just found out that some examinees were…”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! ”
Braydon suddenly stood up, his white clothes fluttering in the wind, releasing a terrifying killing intent.
Sammy and Hatcher’s faces turned pale as they knelt down on one knee.. They lowered their heads and said hoa.r.s.ely, “It’s our fault!”
