Chapter 504: Hundred-Meter Bamboo Grove



The words uttered were shameless, something that perhaps only someone like “Great Ape” could say. Come on, he just poked you a few times. If it hurts, just say so. A few rubs and it’ll be fine. Was it really necessary to make such a fuss?

Sure enough, as Sean had expected, the moment he spoke, a wave of commotion erupted among the onlookers outside the courtyard. The academy disciples, despite their longstanding dislike for Sean, couldn’t help but want to give him a thumbs up at this moment.

“You’re amazing!”

“I’m impressed, really impressed!!!”

“Grandpa!” Betty Jefferson, being a girl after all, was on the verge of exploding with anger after being publicly humiliated by Sean time and time again. Her chest, already poked by Sean yesterday, felt like a stormy sea rising and falling. Hearing the discussions outside, the mix of shame and anger made her wish to find a hole to hide in. She also wished to cleave Sean into eight pieces with a sword. She turned to Gloy Jefferson and urgently said, “Grandpa, look at how he treats me. How can I face anyone in the future? How can I stay at the Plainwater Town branch? How can I… get married??”

“Hmph!”

“If you can’t stand up for me today, I…”

“This education!”

“I won’t continue. As soon as the entire academy martial arts competition is over, I’ll drop out immediately and leave the Plainwater Town branch!”

“This marriage!”

“I won’t marry, I refuse to!!!”

With that said, before Gloy Jefferson could console or respond, Betty Jefferson glared fiercely at Sean, then covered her face and ran out of the courtyard!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Gloy Jefferson’s expression darkened completely, as cold as ice. The powerful dark energy that had been somewhat restrained exploded in an instant. The Jefferson family experts standing around Sean followed suit, glaring at him, each releasing their formidable auras, ready to pounce and tear Sean apart, bone from bone!

The atmosphere became tense and charged!

However, faced with such a situation, Sean remained calm, showing no fear at all. His face was as calm as still water, with a provoking tone, he asked, “What? Can’t win in a fight, can’t win in an argument, is the head of the Jefferson family ready to bully the weak and outnumbered?”

Sean wasn’t afraid at all, not even a bit! The Confluence Pill had been successfully refined by Sean, making the trip worthwhile. If truly provoked, he could simply reveal his true realm and strength, wreaking havoc. He had already destroyed the Hall of Jade in the Plainwater Town branch before he came here yesterday. Destroying a branch of the Jefferson family in the provincial capital wouldn’t be a big deal! As for the capital… even if he lost the pretext of the Plainwater Town branch, he could still find other ways to infiltrate the capital and get close to Lord Steer!

“Mr. Hastiff!” This was, after all, the Plainwater Town branch, under Hastiff’s jurisdiction. Gloy Jefferson, suppressing the urge to strike Sean down with a slap, turned to Hastiff and said through gritted teeth, “You saw and heard it. This kid is audacious and disrespectful. I initially wanted to give him a chance due to your presence, but he’s gone too far!”

“So!”

“What do you say? How should this matter be resolved?”

Gloy Jefferson directly handed over the decision to Hastiff, giving him a great deal of face. If Hastiff continued to favor Sean, then the Jefferson family could naturally turn the tables with righteousness!

“This…” Hastiff’s face had turned almost black! Little did he know that before Sean arrived, Hastiff had done his best to placate Gloy Jefferson, informing him of Sean’s importance in the current academy martial arts competition, urging Gloy Jefferson to hold back his anger and allowing Sean to apologize to Betty Jefferson, Gloy Jefferson, and the Jefferson family. This would have been a way to save face for everyone.

After the academy martial arts competition, whatever Gloy Jefferson wanted to do to Sean, Hastiff wouldn’t intervene!

As the saying goes, Hastiff’s goal was the academy martial arts competition!

But, darn it! This little bastard Sean seemed inherently arrogant. No matter the situation, he refused to yield an inch. Instead, he took advantage of the situation and thoroughly offended Gloy Jefferson and the Jefferson family of the provincial capital!

Damn it! If it weren’t for Sean’s use to him, ensuring Sean’s safety before the academy martial arts competition was a must, Gloy Jefferson would have wanted to slap Sean, and even Hastiff wanted to just slap Sean to death before the academy martial arts competition!

“I’ll make you show off!”

“In my opinion, why not do this…” Hastiff, with a blackface, contemplated for a moment, then said, “Buddha Academy is the top institution in the North Kingdom. It’s a place for sparring, not for killing.”

With that said, Hastiff and Gloy Jefferson exchanged a glance. Hastiff continued, “Mr. Jefferson, do you remember that each branch of the Buddha Academy has a hundred-meter bamboo grove constructed by an array, specifically designed to test the martial talents of the academy disciples?”

“Hehe!” “If I remember correctly, Mr. Jefferson, when you were young and full of spirit, you were also a prominent figure in the branch and achieved a remarkable distance of eighty-five meters in the bamboo grove.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“And your eldest son, Tommy, was even more outstanding, breaking through to ninety-three meters, ranking among the top three in the history of the Plainwater Town branch, a talent fit for a king, with hopes of reaching the bright energy realm…”

The hundred-meter bamboo grove! Hastiff’s sudden mention of this made Gloy Jefferson’s pupils shrink suddenly, understanding the implied message. However, he still asked, feigning ignorance, “Mr. Hastiff, what do you mean by that?”

“Hehe!” Hastiff smiled and looked at Sean, asking, “Mr. Great, are you interested in challenging the hundred-meter bamboo grove to test your own talent?”

“Oh?” Sean, who knew nothing about the hundred-meter bamboo grove, furrowed his brow slightly and asked in return, “What does Mr. Hastiff mean by this?”

Hastiff then explained, “As the name suggests, the bamboo grove is a hundred meters long and is enveloped by an array. Anyone below the bright energy level who enters the grove will be repelled by the array. The farther one goes, the stronger the repelling force becomes. The further one walks, the higher the talent and the stronger the bloodline.”

“So!” “Almost every academy disciple, after activating their bloodline, will go for a walk in the hundred-meter bamboo grove to gain a clear understanding of their own talent, which is convenient for their future cultivation.”

“Mr. Great’s combat power is astonishing. Even at the mid-stage of dark energy, he can fight on par with the late-stage experts, and it’s hard to differentiate. Naturally, he has extraordinary talent and elegance!”

“Perhaps!” “He might achieve an unexpected result!!!!”

Understood! After listening to Hastiff’s explanation, Sean immediately understood. He was being sent to walk the hundred-meter bamboo grove to further confirm his talent and bloodline. At the same time, this would resolve the dispute between him and the Jefferson family of the provincial capital! Killing two birds with one stone! Truly a sly old fox!

Without waiting for Sean to accept or refuse, Hastiff continued, “Tommy isn’t here today, but his achievement is carved on the hero monument next to the hundred-meter bamboo grove, which cannot be faked.”

“With Mr. Great’s displayed talent, the current generation of Jefferson family juniors naturally cannot compare!”

“So!” “Let’s use Tommy’s ninety-three meters as the benchmark. If Mr. Great can exceed ninety-three meters, then, as the head of the Plainwater Town branch, I will settle the previous matter.”

“Otherwise!” “If Mr. Great can’t do it, then he must apologize to Mr. Jefferson and Betty in person to resolve this matter!”

“Mr. Great!” “Mr. Jefferson!” “What do you think???”

This was the plan that Hastiff had come up with. Without using force, without fighting, they would directly compare talents, using talent to win over the crowd!
