Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1584

Zeke replied, “I’m someone from the Northern Xinjiang battlefield. The Regent’s jurisdiction only includes Atheville, and therefore, he has no authority to order me around. You, go back and tell the Regent to come personally if he has something to say.”

Nodding repeatedly, the messenger acquiesced in fear. “Yes, Sir. I... I will convey your message.”

With that, he left hurriedly.

Meanwhile, Zeke looked at the Three Masters coldly. “Is this all the Four Great Martial Houses is capable of? What a joke.”

Killer Wolf growled, “F***, you Four Great Martial Houses should compensate me for my teeth.”

All the member of the Four Great Martial Houses were dumbfounded.

Compensate him for his teeth?

What does he mean?

Killer Wolf then elaborated, “You’re such a joke that I laughed till my teeth dropped.”

Everyone was speechless.

Damn you!

Zeke continued, “Since you can’t find anyone to stop me, I hereby declare that the Martial Artist National Examination has officially begun. However, let’s change the rules a little, shall we?”

Zeke walked to the highest point overlooking all the exam candidates.

“The total number of examination slots remains unchanged at ten thousand men. Whether you win a slot will depend on how skillful you are. Now, the martial artists from among the non-affiliated and those from the Four Great Martial Houses will be split into their individual groups.”

He then added, “If I find anyone from the Four Great Martial Houses mixed with the non-affiliated group, I’ll have them executed.”

With that, the martial artists split themselves into two camps.

One was made up of those not affiliated to any Martial Houses, while the other was for members of the Four Great Martial Houses.

Zeke said, “Now, those who hold the examination slots are all from the Four Great Martial Houses. The non-affiliated martial artists can challenge those from the Four Great Martial Houses. Whoever wins will get the slot. If you lose, you are eliminated from the competition.”

“Now, let the competition begin!” He bellowed.

What!

The candidates from the Four Great Martial Houses began panicking.

The Great Marshal’s actions would allow the non-affiliated martial artists to seek revenge on them.

It was precisely because their skills were inferior to those of the non-affiliated martial artists that they had prevented them from taking the exam.

Now that the non-affiliated martial artists were allowed to challenge them, they would surely suffer terrible repercussions.

Smirking, Jeager stepped forward. “Great Marshal, I would like to challenge Jan Carter, the heir of the Tomb Sect.”

Zeke nodded. “Permission granted.”

Jan’s face turned pale instantly.

He was keenly aware that he was no match for Jeager; that was why he had gotten Jeager to take the exam under his identity.

If both of them fought, he was sure he would lose.

However, he was the heir of the Ancient Tomb Sect. He had to maintain the sect’s reputation.

He shook his head immediately. “I... I decline your challenge.”

Zeke sneered, “Whoever declines a challenge will be executed on the spot.”

Without hesitation, Killer Wolf drew his Eagle Sword and pointed at Jan.

Blood was still dripping from the sword, making it a gruesome sight.

The moment Zeke gave the command, he would take Jan’s life.

Meanwhile, Jaime Carter’s heart was beating furiously as no one knew Jan’s skills better than him.

Jan had been physically weak and spoiled since he was a child.

Furthermore, he was a lecherous man who spent all his time with women.

His physical state was terrible in comparison to an ordinary person, let alone a commoner martial artist.

He would definitely be killed in battle.

Gathering all his energy, Jaime bellowed, “Jan, surrender and admit defeat! Then, hand over your slot.”

Zeke interrupted, “Those who surrender would also be punished. You do not have a choice.”

F***!

After being threatened with death by Zeke a few times, Jan grew infuriated. “If you want a fight, I’ll give you one. I may not necessarily lose to you as I have beaten my coach before.”

Jan was oblivious to his true strength as he had never tested himself in a real fight before.

As his coach had always let him win for the sake of his ego, he assumed that his skills weren’t that far off from Jeager’s.

If he tried his best, perhaps he could turn the tables on Jeager and win.

“Let’s do it!” Jeager charged at Jan like a man who’d gone berserk.

The next moment, they clashed. The result was just as Jaime has expected.
