Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 81

The disciples on Arrow Mountain heard Elsa's scolding voice. They clearly thought ill of it.

One after another, disciples began to assemble on Arrow Mountain.

"Which blind bastard dares to be so rude to Jerome?"

"This fucking asshole is tired of living. Go and tell Jerome!"

On the training ground of Arrow Mountain, Jerome was practicing his skill when the voice reached him. He shot an arrow at a training rock angrily and shattered it into pieces. Jerome grunted with irritation and went down.

He was stopped by someone on his way there.

"Don't be hasty, Jerome. Didn't you recognize the intense force of sword intent in the howl? That must be an incredibly strong master."

"Sword intent? The disciple from Sword Mountain? Let me go, Gage. I will murder these Sword Mountain people, one by one! The bastards!" Jerome said madly. To hell with the sword intent thing!

"Jerome, didn't you hear me? The person has sword intent, and it's more intense than Thomas'!"

"What?" Jerome was filled with even more rage. He realized that he had been dizzy with madness upon hearing the howl. "Gage, who can be stronger than Thomas on Sword Mountain?"

"Elsa!" Gage said, his face taut with anxiety.

Jerome froze with astonishment. He found it hard to believe what he had heard.

...

Elsa waited for a long while, but nobody turned up. She made a suggestion to the disciples of Sword Mountain as she walked towards them. "Rick, Jerome is hiding from us like a coward. Let's continue cursing him until he comes out!"

The disciples were surprised at Elsa's boldness, but they dared not back out.

Though Elsa had shown her strength, could she really rival a Mysterious Realm master like Jerome?

"Elsa, I am proud of you now that you have grown so powerful. But as for Jerome..."

"Rick, are you guys also cowards? Do as I say. Darren will back us up if I cannot win over Jerome!" Elsa spoke with confidence.

The other disciples' eyes widened at Elsa's words. Darren? Was she saying that Darren was stronger than herself? How could that be possible?

Rick inched close to Darren and asked politely, "Are you sure you can defeat Jerome?"

"You must be kidding, Rick! I am a loser! How can I challenge a genius? Elsa is just pulling your leg," Darren said nonchalantly.

Rick felt very awkward and anxious. Was Darren being sarcastic or telling the truth? What would happen to them if Darren was stronger than Elsa?

He forced a smile. "Darren, we are brothers of the same school. Please accept my apologies. I would appreciate your generosity if... if you can forget about my offense in the past."

"Do as Elsa says," Darren said simply, looking straight ahead.

He released a ray of sword intent around Rick to warn him. Rick's body immediately stiffened. Undoubtedly, he would be sliced to pieces by Darren's sword intent if he dared to take a step further.

After Darren released his sword intent back, Rick wiped his sweating forehead and returned to the crowd. "Let's continue cursing Jerome the bastard and see if he is pathetic enough to hide in the dark!"

All the disciples followed Rick's order, loudly shouting Jerome's name and lobbing insults at Arrow Mountain.

"Jerome you turtle, do you dare come out from your shell? It turns out the disciples of Arrow Mountain are fucking cowards!"

"Jerome, you son of a bitch, come out! Are you scared to piss your pants?"

...

The disciples of Sword Mountain kept on with their cursing and taunting for about an hour.

The disciples of the School of Arrow Skill, meanwhile, had all gathered on the hillside, waiting to see what would happen.

"Jerome, what is wrong with you? Go and kill these idiots of Sword Mountain!"

"Jerome, why don't you teach them a lesson?"

"Silence!" Jerome's face turned ghastly pale. He kept anxiously peering at the disciples of Sword Mountain.

"Darren the bastard is still alive!" Jerome ground his teeth.

"Err? I've got an idea. Gage forbade me to confront them, but he did not prevent me from going to the School of Blade Skill. If Alan knows that Darren killed his son, I do wonder what he would do..." Jerome sneered and his figure soon slipped away.

"Jerome, you cowardly nobody, are you crying in your mother's bosom? Ha-ha!"

The ongoing taunting had caught the attention of many disciples of different schools.

"What happened? Why are the usually low-key disciples of Sword Mountain so arrogant today?"

"Where are the people of Law Enforcement Authority? Their heads really are swollen with arrogance."

"Law Enforcement Authority? I heard that they got in great trouble after that night. They do not have the time to meddle in others' business now. Otherwise, they would have intervened when the disciples of Sword Mountain were battered these days."

"What? Really? What happened that night?"

"You promise to keep it to yourself?" One disciple whispered in his companion's ear, "I heard that the Chief Elder of Law Enforcement Authority was killed."
