Chapter 847 Experience
As soon as those words were spoken, everyone shifted their attention back to the person who had raised their doubt earlier. They were waiting for a drama to unfold.
Countless people came to visit Green Mountain Monastery, so in order to allow more people to see the performance on stage, the platform was set up more than ten meters high.
If someone were to really be thrown off the stage, they might only break a leg or a foot if lucky. However, if one landed head-first, they would likely die on the spot.
Just because someone had voiced their skepticism, the so-called divine monk intended to kill that person. The ruthless act didn’t seem like something a man of faith would do.
Sensing everyone’s gaze on him, the young man shuddered. He merely doubted the existence of divine powers in the world.
Little did he expect Antoine to ask him to go on stage. That’s over ten meters tall! If I really fall, won’t I be killed?
The young man hesitated as his legs trembled. He was only twenty-one years old and was just a third-year university student. He didn’t want to die just like that.
He deeply regretted his decision, wishing he hadn’t said anything earlier.
The onlookers didn’t care whether he was scared or not. They were just eager to watch the drama unfold.
Go on, hurry up! Weren’t you unconvinced earlier? Don’t chicken out now,”
“That’s right. Weren’t you dubious about Master Antoine’s ability to knock someone down through the air? Go and experience it for yourself!”
“Youngsters nowadays just love to brag. They talk big but are so cowardly. How embarrassing!”
“You should be ashamed of yourself. If you don’t have the guts, you shouldn’t have spoken up just now. If you’re not brave enough to go up the stage, just go back home and stay inside. Don’t come out and make a fool of yourself!”
Discussions and criticisms were buzzing wildly among the crowd. The young man clenched his teeth. A juvenile in his early twenties like him had never been humiliated like that, so he uttered through gritted teeth. “Fine! I’ll go up. What’s there to be afraid of? Anyway, I just don’t believe he has the ability to hit someone through the air.”
A menacing glint flickered in Antoine’s eyes when he heard the young man still dare to look down on him. In that case, don’t blame me for not showing him any mercy.
Not long after, the young man stood about one meter away from the edge of the platform and Antoine.
Although he claimed not to believe in Antoine’s capabilities, he was still fearful deep down. Looking down. from the elevated height filled him with dread.
When the young man saw Antoine standing up and approaching him, ready to strike, he immediately gave in, the little courage he had mustered earlier vanishing into thin air.
“Master Antoine, I was wrong. I believe you now. I really do, so please don’t do it,” the young man pleaded.
