With a resounding thud, Mr. Collins’s fist punched through the chest of the Sect Master of Twin Sect. Blood spurted from the gaping hole.
Pieces of her destroyed heart flew far and wide.
However, the woman was still conscious.
She fixed her gaze on Zeke and finally realized what had prevented her from getting near him.
It’s energy!
It has to be King Class energy!
Who said the Great Marshal had his life force drained?
Haha! It was all a lie. What an earth-shattering lie.
Not only is his life force still intact, but he’s also managed to enter into King Class.
Crap.
The Four Great Martial Houses are in danger.
With her last ounce of strength, she turned towards the other three heads of the Martial Houses and exclaimed, “Run... Runaway... The Great Marshal is...”
Before she could finish, Zeke had already flung a silver needle, which cleanly pierced through her skull.
Her life instantly came to an end.
At the same moment, a victor had emerged from the fight between the other two Sect Masters of the Martial Houses and the two warriors.
Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf had both been promoted toKing Class. Although their opponents refused to give in, the result of the fight had already been set in stone.
As the situation continued to unfold, the members of the Four Great Martial Houses were trembling in fear.
The Sect Master of Ancient Tomb Sect was pinned to a tree with scarcely a breath left in him.
The Sect Master of Twin Sect had had her heart punched through and was probably already making her way through the Underworld.
The other two Sect Masters were also grievously wounded.
The Great Marshal is too cruel.
How could he injure and kill the Sect Masters of the Four Great Martial Houses at such an important event?
Is he trying to stage a coup?
None of the people present has picked up on Zeke’s King Class energy.
They all assumed that the Sect Master of Twin Sect had died at the hands of Mr. Collins.
Zeke issued an order to Killer Wolf, “Killer Wolf, relay my order. Any martial artist of appropriate age from Eurasia, regardless of their local examination score, may come to Atheville to take part in the final examination.”
Killer Wolf nodded. “Yes, Sir!”
He turned to the surrounding members of Deadly Wolf and bellowed, “Spread this message! All martial artists of appropriate age from Eurasia are to come to Atheville to attend the Martial Artist National Examination immediately. It doesn’t matter if they’ve passed their local examination!”
“Yes, Sir!” Deadly Wolf echoed back.
“Wait!”
“No!”
The two remaining Sect Masters of the Four Great Martial Houses anxiously protested.
But it was too late as the order had already been carried out.
Both of them burned with rage and trepidation.
They had both bullied many commoner martial artists into not taking part in the examination and forced them to withdraw.
Those commoner martial artists had been deemed too powerful. They had threatened the chances of the examinees put in place by the Four Great Martial Houses.
Jeager had been one of the victims.
If the Great Marshal allows those commoner warriors to enter the examination, the examinees from the Four Great Martial Houses would have beaten the crap out of them. There’s no way they will be able to pass the Martial Artist National Examination then.
No matter what it takes, we have to stop those commoner martial artists from entering the examination.
The Sect Master of Mount Ymir Sect hollered in anger, “Great Marshal, you better think carefully about what you’re doing! They were not even able to pass the local examination. How could they be allowed to take part in the final examination in Atheville? You’re breaking Eurasia’s law!”
Zeke replied, “I realized many gifted commoner martial artists had failed the local examination, yet numerous mediocre candidates passed. The inferior candidates who passed were mostly members of the Four Great Martial Houses. Today, I am determined to get to the bottom of this matter. I want to know if the Four Great Martial Houses rigged the Martial Artist National Examination. If I discover that such a crime did occur, I shall be forced to exact justice by destroying the Four Great Martial Houses!”
The two men gulped.
They could tell Zeke was serious.
The survival of the Four Great Martial Houses was dangling by a precipice.
The Sect Master of the Mount Ymir Sect shrieked indignantly, “You irritating troublemaker! Mount Ymir Sect refuses to accept such preposterousness. As a show of innocence, Mount Ymir Sect is hereby pulling out of the final examination in Atheville. You can deal with the consequences yourself.”
