Despite Alex’s taunts, the man merely smiled good–naturedly. “Takeshi is the only Jetroinian martial artist who has earned my respect. After all, he is Jetroina’s strongest fighter and ranked as an Unrivalled Master. Despite that, he is still not up to my standards. I will never submit to him!” 

Alex’s brows crept up his forehead. If he isn’t someone sent by the Tokugawa family, does this mean he’s from the Phoenix Organization instead? 

Alex’s eyes narrowed in suspicion. 

I knew that the Morrisons wouldn’t let me off the hook so easily. Sooner or later, they would have hired someone from the Phoenix Organization to assassinate me. 

Despite Richard’s past warnings to the Morrisons, Uriah was the head of the Morrisons. Alex caught wind that Uriah was currently training in isolation because he wanted to ascend his Master ranking. Once he improved his rank, he planned to annihilate the Grants. 

Seeing how the Morrisons are openly going against Richard’s warnings, Uriah must have reached a higher rank. Perhaps, the Morrisons believe that Uriah is close to succeeding. 

“Are you an assassin from the Phoenix Organization?” Alex asked calmly. 

“Not bad. It looks like you have rather keen senses,” the man replied with a smile. 

“As an assassin, you’ve already failed your first attempt. Yet, you didn’t run away. Instead, you chose to approach me in broad daylight. I must admit, you are a confident man,” Alex called out tauntingly. 

“That is what your average assassin would do.” The man waved his hand airily. “I am no ordinary assassin. Before I met you head–on, I wanted to test the waters. In my eyes, anyone who fails to dodge my bullet is an unworthy opponent. This way, I wouldn’t need to expose my whereabouts too.” 

Although they were at odds with each other, Alex couldn’t help but agree. If I hadn’t dodged the bullet earlier, I would be as good as dead. Once the bullet hit its mark, the assassin wouldn’t have to do anything else. 

Alex sized up the man before him. “Plenty of Master ranked fighters have died in my hands. Aren’t you a Master yourself? How are you so confident that you can kill me?” 

“I am unlike typical Master fighters. Besides, you are not the only one who has killed Master fighters. Don’t forget that I only came here to assassinate you because I have a solid grasp of your strength. It is a rule in the Phoenix Organization. It looks like you are trying to delay our fight. Are you having second thoughts?” 

“Second thoughts?” Alex smirked. Without another word, Alex darted toward his opponent as quick as lightning. 

Although he could sense a menacing aura that emanated from the man, Alex remained unfazed. 

Even if the assassin wielded greater strength, Alex had studied the Nine Heaven Scrolls intently. He also had adept mastery over the Light Moves. With these two combined, Alex’s power easily outmatched any Master. 

Even if the man was not an ordinary Master, his chances of victory were slim. 

After Alex realized that the man was only ranked as a Master fighter, he was confident of his victory. Nevertheless, both men were impressive fighters. Watching them trade blows with each other was akin to
