“Oh… my god! Oh… my god! God!”

“Am I seeing things? I must be seeing things…”

“Tang Tang Tang Tang…”

……

Amory struggled to get up, his face full of disbelief. His left arm was numb and without sensation—he didn’t even know if the bone was broken.

How could this be? How could the theoretical limit be broken?

“Jason Clark!” A strange, eager light suddenly flashed in Amory’s eyes. He looked at Jason Clark and raised his voice: “Come to Beast Academy! A genius like you shouldn’t be buried here! Come to our Beast Academy, basic Clark, you’ll definitely shine brilliantly!”

“Bullshit!” Jason Clark stared wide-eyed, his body as unmoving as a rock, and cursed loudly: “Stupid ox, you want to trick me into that lousy Beast Academy and then plot against Ashley! Let me tell you, stop dreaming, I saw through your scheme long ago!”

“Jason Clark, women are nothing! If you’re a man, you should forge your own martial path! Come on, come to Beast Academy. As long as we join forces, we can definitely create a brand new martial way! What could be more exciting than that…” Amory didn’t back down at all, his bull-like eyes wide, his face full of excitement.

“Pah!” Jason Clark still didn’t move a muscle, and said disdainfully, “An idiot like you dares to use such low tricks to play schemes on me? You’re too naive!”

“Jason Clark, I will never give up!” Amory’s gaze was like a ball of fire, his words firm and resolute.

“Hmph, stupid ox! I’m warning you, if you dare to have any ideas about Ashley, I’ll beat you into minced beef!” Jason Clark looked at Amory with a face full of warning and contempt.

“You degenerate man!”

Amory glared at Jason Clark for a long time, then turned and left in anger.

“Wait!” Jason Clark suddenly shouted.

Amory paused, turned his face back, and was overjoyed: “Basic Clark, I knew it, your martial heart is finally unwilling to remain ordinary, you want to create a new martial path with me…”

“Ow, help me up.” Jason Clark’s body, still in a bow stance with a punching pose, didn’t move at all, but he sucked in a breath: “I pulled my back! Oh man, this is going to hurt for days…”

Amory was petrified.

While Jason Clark and Amory were fighting fiercely, the atmosphere in the principal’s office was also terrible.

“I can’t believe your school still has such trash students, I’m truly shocked!” A middle-aged man with a red, bulbous nose waved his thick right arm furiously, raging: “I simply can’t imagine it! Since my grandfather’s time, our family has sponsored Ander Academy, pouring in money and affection every year, and this is the return we get. You actually allow such a morally corrupt piece of trash to stay in the school for five whole years—has Ander Academy really fallen this far? As the principal, you bear inescapable responsibility…”

Next to the middle-aged man stood a young boy with a bruised and swollen face, looking smug—it was the new student whom Jason Clark had just taught a lesson at the school gate. Jason Clark didn’t know that this boy he’d casually dealt with was actually the son of the The Harris Family patriarch, David Harris.

The The Harris Family wielded enormous influence in Starwind City. After centuries of development, their reach extended into nearly every corner of the city. As the dignified son of the The Harris Family patriarch, to be nearly murdered at the school gate—this would surely make the The Harris Family the laughingstock among the other families of Starwind City.

The The Harris Family young master could harass women, act lawlessly, treat people like dirt—but he absolutely could not be humiliated!

The The Harris Family patriarch’s fury was understandable. He had sent his son to Ander Academy precisely because it had always been the The Harris Family’s own turf. For any family, investing in the next generation was always worthwhile. In the The Harris Family’s centuries-long history, their support for Ander Academy had never ceased.

The principal’s face was plastered with a fawning, flattering smile, even as the middle-aged man’s spittle nearly sprayed onto him. He didn’t dare offend this financial backer in front of him—if the school’s income dropped sharply this year, he wouldn’t even make it through the year and would lose his position as principal.

After nearly an hour of scolding, the middle-aged man finally stopped. He calmed his anger and said in a deep voice to the principal: “No matter what, my son entered a school sponsored by the The Harris Family, yet was nearly murdered. That’s right, this is attempted murder! I cannot accept this, and neither can the The Harris Family. You must give the The Harris Family an explanation!”

With that, the middle-aged man didn’t spare the principal another glance, turning and leaving with David Harris.

The principal’s face was so dark it seemed he could squeeze water from it. He growled in a low voice: “Bring Jason Clark to me!”

Section Five: Don’t Give Up!

The principal looked at Jason Clark with disgust. Jason Clark, who had just fought fiercely with Amory, was covered in mud, his face bruised and swollen. The principal felt like a fool—how had he allowed such trash to stay at Ander for five years?

It was all that damned old Old Man Bennett’s fault!

Old Man Bennett couldn’t be kept around either…

A ruthless glint flashed in the principal’s eyes. The most important thing now was to calm the The Harris Family’s anger. He suddenly remembered that the reason he’d agreed to let Jason Clark stay back then, besides Old Man Bennett, was also because of Ashley Cooper. Ashley Cooper had been Ander Academy’s top expert at the time, and those years of Ander’s glory were all thanks to Ashley Cooper.

Hmph, Ashley Cooper is gone too…
