The people there were worried.
After all, it was the Goldsmith family in the capital city.
On the bright side, there were two experts who were as good as a Virtuoso and now, the family had Boyce some more, a young genius Virtuoso.
This was just on the bright side. A great family who had been inherited for countless years like the Goldsmith family in the capital city had a terrifying underlying power.
The people who knew about the aristocratic families all knew that the power displayed openly by these families was just the tip of the iceberg of their true strength.
Right now, the Goldsmith family had three Virtuosos on the bright side. But secretly, there could be more and there might be an existence that was stronger than a Virtuoso.
Facing such a powerful existence, a person would be in despair if he or she was not mentally strong.
However, to everyone’s astonishment, upon hearing this, Jacob merely sneered, “If he dares to come to North Riverside Province, I will make him never be able to get away!”
After these words were uttered, the others let out a breath of relief as if their minds were set at ease.
When they thought about it, they were not that worried anymore. After all, Jacob’s strength that was shown now was much more powerful than a Virtuoso-to-be.
“Jacob, are you a Virtuoso?”
Lena looked at Jacob and asked this question that everyone was very concerned about.
Those who were following Jacob knew that he was powerful and terrifying but they did not have a clear idea of his true strength.
Or rather, it was as if Jacob had never met an opponent. Even a Virtuoso-to-be could be easily defeated by him with his single move so he had actually never displayed his true strength.
Jacob looked at Lena and shook his head with a smile, “Nope!”
In his previous life, he cultivated the spiritual power of heaven and earth while in this life now, with the Chaos Pearl, he was cultivating the power of chaos. He was currently in the second phase of cultivation, the Gasification Phase, which was indeed a far cry from the martial arts and the internal power on earth.
According to the standard of internal power on Earth, he was certainly not considered a Virtuoso.
He totally did not have the thing of so-called internal power.
The word “no” was easily blurted out from Jacob’s mouth but others’ hearts sank when they heard this.
Their master’s strength was already so terrifying but he was not a Virtuoso yet.
How strong would a Virtuoso be then? How terrifying would a Virtuoso have to be?
None of the people there had ever seen a true Virtuoso to display his skills. So, they could only roughly conjecture the strength of a Virtuoso.
But, this conjecture almost made them despair.
If Jacob was not a Virtuoso, then he would definitely be defeated by Boyce. Since the Goldsmith family said that Boyce will be coming to North Riverside Province to behead Jacob after a month, he is bound to come.
By that time, what should they do?
“Is Virtuoso very powerful?” Jacob asked again.
Everyone was speechless hearing this.
But they did not dare to have complaints.
“After all, there’s a very small number of Virtuosos and as far as I know, on the bright side, there isn’t a single expert in Riverside City that is as good as a Virtuoso, they are at most a Virtuoso-to-be.
None of us has ever seen a true Virtuoso and the real power of a Virtuoso. However, there’s a saying spreading in the world of martial arts that once a person becomes a Virtuoso, he will overcome the material desire and attain sainthood!
It’s a very different story when it comes to the Virtuoso Phase. If a Virtuoso uses really all his strength, then, even ten Virtuosos-to-be are not able to fight with him!”
Lecherous Demon said.
Other than Jacob, he was the strongest one among the crowd.
He was once with intense internal power and had a great accomplishment in martial arts. His strength was almost the strength of a Virtuoso-to-be.
“Once a person becomes a Virtuoso, he will overcome the material desire and attain sainthood?” Jacob had a mocking smile, “A mere mortal dares to speak of overcoming the material desire and attaining sainthood? Indeed, so ignorant!”
Jacob’s words caused the crowd to feel speechless.
Some even wanted to say something like, oh master, you were not even a master but you were still mocking others.
But they just dared to secretly say this in their minds.
Apparently, Jacob had seen the concern of the crowd and just put a smile of confidence on his face, “Don’t need to worry, even if it is a Virtuoso, I also can behead him with a single sword cut!”
Once the words were uttered, the tables and chairs in the surrounding floated in the air.
Then, with a burst in the air, they were broken into powder.
This?
Everyone was dumbstruck when they saw this scene.
It was not that they did not know how strong Jacob was, however, this kind of power was really out of their expectations.
Jacob did not even make any move but he could instantly break the surrounding tables and chairs into powder, could this be done by human power?
Perhaps, a Virtuoso was also nothing more than that.
At this moment, the others were not worried anymore.
…
…
After Jacob left the house of the Bell family alone, he felt a slight pain.
He made the surrounding tables and chairs floated in the air and instantly broke them into powder.
