Chapter 20

In the Free Federation, only the dark web can easily infiltrate the virtual networks of various countries.

Brian Carter let out a sigh. He couldn't understand what these people were thinking, treating him as some so-called elite.

Half an hour passed.

The car received a quick paint touch-up at the club. Thanks to new technology, there was no need for a long wait.

Brian Carter and Emily Clark exchanged contact information and started the car to head home.

On the other side.

William Reed and Uncle Edward took another car and made a hasty escape.

Inside the car.

William Reed was still a bit in disbelief.

His family was considered a powerful force on Sky Blue Star, usually able to do whatever they pleased.

How could they have run into someone with such an extraordinary background?

“Uncle Edward, should we look into that kid’s real background?”

William Reed's eyes flickered.

He had a hunch that Brian Carter wasn’t really one of those upper-class elites.

“You think someone with that kind of power can be investigated at will? I’m afraid the moment you check, the other side will know.”

Uncle Edward disagreed.

“This matter should be reported to the family head and let him decide.”

……

In the following days.

Every night, Brian Carter practiced “Linlong Chapter” at home, using the Origin Stone to not only solidify his foundation but also make impressive progress.

During the day.

Brian Carter drove to martial arts schools in the city to spar with the martial artists there.

The schools Brian Carter visited were all well-known, large martial arts schools.

The results were disappointing.

Those martial artists were no match for Brian Carter at all.

Some of the martial artists hadn’t even reached the level of a first-level superhuman.

At best, they were martial apprentices, with some basic fighting skills, able to beat two or three ordinary people.

Even when facing first-level extraordinary martial artists, they usually couldn’t last more than three moves against Brian Carter.

Those who could withstand ten moves from Brian Carter were already top fighters among the martial artists in Linjiang City.

“Are all the martial artists in Linjiang City at this level?”

Brian Carter wondered.

Linjiang City, on Sky Blue Star, was considered a second-tier city with a population of ten million.

In such a big city, he couldn’t find a worthy opponent?

Today was the last day before the college entrance exam.

It was also Brian Carter’s last sparring session.

“Wu Ji Martial Arts School.”

Brian Carter stepped into the largest martial arts school in Linjiang City.

“He’s here!”

“That challenger kid is here.”

As soon as he entered, all the martial artists and staff inside looked over, everyone on high alert.

Brian Carter didn’t know that, over the past few days, his sweeping victories at the major martial arts schools in Linjiang City had made him famous in the community.

“Please come in!”

A manager from the school greeted Brian Carter respectfully.

In the martial arts arena.

Three martial artists were already waiting to challenge Brian Carter.

The first martial artist was defeated by Brian Carter in six moves.

The second was defeated in ten moves.

The third was defeated in thirteen moves.

“Hmm, the quality of this school is pretty good, but it’s still not satisfying enough.”

Brian Carter was a bit surprised.

Wu Ji Martial Arts School was at least gracious, unlike the others, where the martial artists would grit their teeth when Brian Carter came to spar.

Brian Carter was about to leave.

“Young man, since you’re not satisfied, this old man will shamelessly spar with you.”

An elderly white-bearded man, well into his seventies, stepped into the arena.

“Master!”

All the martial artists and students in the school greeted him with excitement and reverence.

Brian Carter met the old man’s gaze and felt an invisible pressure, his breath catching slightly.

“You’re at the Innate level.”

A look of seriousness appeared on Brian Carter’s face.

Innate level—that was a second-level superhuman.

A martial artist at this level, even if they defeated Brian Carter, it wouldn’t really be a fair fight.

“Go ahead and give it your all.”

The old man looked at Brian Carter with amazement, as if he were appraising a rare, uncut gem.

“Alright.”

Brian Carter attacked without holding back, using bold and open moves.

When facing other martial artists, Brian Carter had to restrain himself to avoid injuring them.

But against an Innate-level martial artist, he had no such concerns.

Brian Carter knew his chances of winning were slim, but as long as he enjoyed the fight, it would be worth it.

Bang! Pa! Pa!

In the arena, the sounds of impact rang out continuously, the floor cracking layer by layer.

Brian Carter’s attacks were like a raging storm, while the old man stood firm as a rock, calmly deflecting every move.

Before long.

The two had exchanged over a hundred moves.

Brian Carter was thoroughly enjoying himself, and the admiration and amazement in the old man’s eyes grew even stronger.

“This guy is amazing! He’s lasted so long against the master.”

“He really is impressive! Judging by his age, he’s not even twenty, right?”

“If he can reach the Innate level before twenty, he’d be a rare genius in the entire Sky Blue Star martial arts world.”

Everyone in the school was full of admiration.

After two hundred moves, beads of sweat appeared on Brian Carter’s forehead, and he finally stopped.

“I’m no match for you.”

Brian Carter said frankly.

He felt his opponent was like a vast ocean—no matter how he attacked, everything was calmly neutralized.

Although his “Linlong Chapter” had killing moves he hadn’t used, this was a friendly spar, not the time for lethal techniques.

“Neither arrogant nor servile—truly a fine piece of jade.”

The old man was both impressed and regretful.

The regret was—

After a series of tests, his initial amazement had turned into deep disappointment.
