Chapter 681: Not My Match
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this mont, those big shots were all clamoring to let Thomas be the referee of this martial arts tournant.
Actually, they had their own selfish motives for doing so.
After all, Thomas and Kyle were from Davenport.
Thomas had promised them that he would not interfere with the martial arts tournant.
However, these big shots were still worried that if Thomas changed his mind at the last minute, it would be troubleso.
Among the big shots in the four provinces, Kyle was the strongest.
His existence affected the interests of many people.
Normally, these people wouldn’t have the courage to fight Kyle head-on because they weren’t as strong as him.
However, today’s martial arts tournant was their best opportunity.
As long as they could defeat Kyle in today’s martial arts tournant, they could make a request of him.
Moreover, the loser could not go back on his word after the match. He had to do as the winner asked.
Today was the last chance for the underworld bosses from other provinces to take revenge on Kyle. If they failed because of Thomas, they would have to wait until this ti next year.
However, if they waited for another year, they would lose another year’s worth of money. Therefore, these big shots had already thought it through. They could not let Thomas participate in the martial arts tournant no matter what.
The best way to prevent Thomas from participating in the martial arts tournant was to let him be the referee.
Thomas naturally knew what these people were thinking. In the end, he could only helplessly agree and then walk onto the stage.
When the big shots of the four provinces saw Thomas walk onto the stage, they instantly burst into a round of applause. They were also very excited.
“Today is our annual martial arts tournant. All of you have gathered here for only one purpose, and that is to resolve the conflicts that have occurred on a daily basis through martial arts tournants. Therefore, no matter what conflicts there are today, we will decide according to the outco of the martial arts tournant. As for the rules of the martial arts tournant, I believe that all of you should be clearer than , so I won’t waste any more ti with you…”
Thomas paused for a mont and then continued, “Since everyone has given
face and allowed
to be the referee of this martial arts tournant, I will make my stance clear. Whatever happens today, we will settle it in the arena.
“After the arena competition ends, if anyone causes a dispute or reneges on their promise, that would be disrespecting people from my side. At that ti, don’t bla , a businessman, for participating in the matters of the underworld!”
Although Thomas’s tone was very gentle, it gave people a chilling feeling.
Everyone was silent, and no one dared to say another word.
“Alright, that’s all from . The martial arts tournant begins now!”
Seeing that everyone was silent, Thomas then called out expressionlessly, then turned around and returned to his seat.
San Francisco was adjacent to Davenport, so Yakov Chakin from San Francisco often had conflicts with Kyle from Davenport.
However, because Yakov’s strength had never been as strong as Kyle, he could only watch helplessly as his territory was slowly being eaten up by Kyle.
Yakov had been enduring for so long because he was waiting for the martial arts tournant.
He wanted to use this opportunity to resolve the conflict between him and Kyle.
“Mr. Hayes, why don’t we let the experts from our two families take the lead first?”
Yakov asked Kyle with a smile after hesitating for a mont.
After hearing Yakov’s suggestion, Kyle smiled faintly.
He seed to have already guessed that Yakov would take the initiative to challenge him, so he nodded and agreed.
When Yakov saw that Kyle had agreed, he turned to look at the dark-skinned, slightly thin man behind him.
The man didn’t waste any ti and nodded at Yakov. Then, he walked straight to the ring and looked at Kyle provocatively.
Kyle sat on the chair with a very calm expression on his face, as if he didn’t care about this man at all.
“Mr. Larson, is there a problem?”
Kyle turned to look at Caron Larson beside him and asked softly.
When Caron heard this, he glanced at the man on the stage and said softly, “Mr. Hayes, this person is probably an expert in Muay Thai. His physical fitness is terrifying, but I don’t think he’s a match for …”
“That’s good!”
Kyle was relieved when he heard Caron’s words.
For so many years, Caron had always represented Kyle in the martial arts tournant.
Although he was not invincible, he had won nine out of ten battles. Therefore, Kyle trusted Caron very much.
Caron leaped up and landed on the stage.
The first row of spectators was nearly two ters away from the arena.
Caron was able to jump onto the stage with a casual jump. This was enough to prove how amazing Caron’s martial arts were.
When everyone saw Caron go up on stage, they instantly erupted into cheers.
After all, Caron was an Oprana boxer, and the person Yakov invited was a Muay Thai expert, so the audience would definitely support the Oprana boxer.
“It has begun. It is finally about to begin…”
When Jesse Wan saw Caron go up on stage, he shouted excitedly.
Connor narrowed his eyes and looked at Caron and the Thai man.
But for so reason, Connor felt that the auras of these two people didn’t seem to be very strong.
When Jorge Yarrell was teaching Connor fist techniques, he ntioned that the easiest way to judge a person’s combat strength was to observe their aura.
Connor had also learned so thods of observing chi, but Connor felt that Caron’s chi was not very strong.
‘Am I wrong?’
Connor thought to himself.
However, at this mont, Caron cupped his fists at the Thai man and said with a smile, “Please!”
When the Thai man heard Caron’s words, he did not hesitate at all and charged straight toward Caron.
The Thai man was extrely fast. In less than two seconds, he had arrived in front of Caron. Then, he raised his right hand and smashed it toward Caron’s face.
“He’s so fast!”
“Yeah, this person is very fast!”
When everyone saw the man attack, their eyes widened in disbelief.
This was because such speed was already very heaven-defying in the eyes of an ordinary person.
Even Barry Fox, who was standing beside Connor, was shocked. He couldn’t help but whisper, “As expected of an expert who can participate in the martial arts tournant. He’s really powerful…”
“His speed is too slow…”
However, just as Barry said so, Connor whispered.
