Dubyn, who was gravely injured, was urgently rushed to the local hospital for treatment.
Meanwhile, Dubyn also made sure to instruct his subordinates to report the situation at Mount Chumen to International Martial Arts Union.
Ever since the battle at Mount Kransbay, the core management of International Martial Arts Union had undoubtedly returned to the hands of Carlo, Aaron, and others.
Coincidentally, on this day, International Martial Arts Union was holding a meeting.
Supreme grandmasters from all nations convened at the International Martial Arts Union headquarters for a meeting.
“Today's agenda primarily consists of two topics.”
“The first step is to restore order from chaos. With the conclusion of the battle at Mount Kransbay, the crisis of Symborsus has finally come to an end. “However, after this incident, we, the martial arts worlds of various countries, should all reflect on ourselves. That painful lesson couldn't be more profound. The final outcome, it's undeniably heavy. But thankfully, justice has ultimately triumphed over evil. The world has once again returned to peace. Let's all raise our glasses together, celebrating this hard-earned victory.”
At the headquarters of International Martial Arts Union, the Supreme masters from various countries were filled with indescribable joy, raising their glasses in celebration.
After these opening remarks, Carlo continued to address the crowd, “After these past few months of recuperation, everyone's injuries and energy should have fully recovered. For the time being, I hope everyone will work on restoring the order of the martial arts world. We should all work on restoring order to the martial arts world that has been in chaos for over a year. Furthermore, the most crucial point is to establish the supreme authority of International Martial Arts Union. Any guidelines and policies set by International Martial Arts Union, any treaties and laws signed, no organization or individual is allowed to violate them. Only by establishing a strong leadership body can we determine the right direction for the future development of martial arts. That is the only way to prevent the martial arts world from repeating the same mistakes in the future!”
In the conference hall, Carlo spoke in a deep voice.
Aaron and the others also chimed in agreement.
None among the Supreme grandmasters present objected to his remarks.
After all, the martial arts world of various countries was greatly weakened now.
The martial arts world's strength had reached an unprecedented level of weakness.
In the current situation, the only way to effectively deal with various crises was to unite all countries' remaining martial forces into a single powerful entity.
“Since no one objects, let's move on to the second item on our agenda. That is, the handling of Mount Kransbay! Based on our observations over the past few months, we suspect that there must be a great secret hidden in that region of Mount Kransbay. Indeed, that secret could potentially alter the course of martial arts worldwide. Therefore, I propose that from now on, we should change Mount Kransbay from a public area to a regulated zone. Anyone who wishes to traverse the Mount Kransbay must obtain the approval and permission of International Martial Arts Union! This is to prevent those with malicious intentions from damaging and coveting Mount Kransbay! On this matter, I have already reached a consensus with China's War God Castle. I presume everyone has no objections, right?”
Carlo scanned the crowd.
Naturally, the masters present also agreed.
Carlo's suggestion was tantamount to proposing a global collaboration to develop the potential of Mount Kransbay.
It was a proposal to share both the risks and rewards, something that everyone had been hoping for.
After these arrangements were made, International Martial Arts Union was ready to adjourn the meeting.
Just then, the secretary hurriedly entered the meeting room, claiming that there was an urgent matter to report to Carlo.
“What's the matter, just say it. Everyone seated here is trustworthy,” Carlo deadpanned.
“Prince Carlo, there's been an incident over at Mount Chumen.”
“Your nephew, Dubyn, while leading International Martial Arts Union staff on a routine inspection of the Chu residence as stipulated by the treaty, was attacked by members of the Chu family! This has resulted in both his legs being severed, crippling him for life,” the secretary reported nervously.
Upon hearing this, Carlo instantly became furious. “D*mn those Chus! They've got some nerve! Having been reduced to prisoners of war, and yet they still dare to disrespect their superior! How dare they doubt the authority of International Martial Arts Union?”
Carlo was seething with anger.
Inside the conference hall, the other masters were also filled with anger.
“Prince Carlo, this is an open provocation from the Chu family toward International Martial Arts Union! They're trampling on our authority! We suggest deploying troops immediately. This time, every single member of the Chu family will be annihilated.”
Without further ado, they eagerly marshalled their forces, launching a vigorous assault on Mount Chumen.
Several hours later, a multitude of powerful individuals arrived in Norwal City.
Dubyn, seated in his wheelchair, personally went to welcome them.
“Uncle Carlo, you've finally arrived. Please, I implore you, you must avenge me! Crush the Chu family, grind their bones to dust...”
Welcoming the royal troops, Dubyn was overwhelmed with emotion, tears streaming down his face.
“Take good care of your injuries. After tonight, the Chu family will cease to exist in this world,” Carlo announced.
Then, Carlo led the Supreme masters and ascended to the peak of Mount Chumen!
The lights on Mount Chumen shone all night, as bright as day.
On this night, the Chu residence's doors were wide open, welcoming all who came.
After the arrival of the masters from International Martial Arts Union, Carlo and his companions stood proudly at the pinnacle, their authoritative voices echoing throughout the environment.
“Scum of the Chu family, you show no remorse. You've harmed our International Martial Arts Union members, a crime deserving of death! Hurry up and come forward, kneel down, and accept your fate!” his thunderous roar echoed.
No one from the Chu family responded.
But at the mountain gate, there was a thin figure sitting quietly on the steps.
Faced with the onslaught of International Martial Arts Union, the man simply lifted his head and slowly retorted, “The one who should kneel and await death, are you.”
