You’re just a loser! How dare you boast like this?
However, the core members of the Nicholas family clan immediately understood the meaning behind Ron’s words.
Especially the family head, Norton, who had personally seen the Old Ancestor. Since the Old Ancestor had imparted cultivation techniques to him and helped him in his advancement, then it was impossible for the family’s old patriarch not to help Ron, a fallen genius of the Nicholas family.
Moreover, Norton knew his grandson very well. He had never been an arrogant person, but now, he was not afraid of Howen at all. He definitely had in him a fearless confidence, and this confidence had come from the Old Ancestor!
Thinking of this, Norton’s worries earlier were completely swept away. He just waited quietly to see his grandson’s performance.
Howen was stunned for a moment. Then, he sneered and said, “What a joke. To say something like this requires strength. You are just a loser. Do you have the strength?”
Ron did not care about Howen’s mockery and insults at all. He continued to look at Howen calmly and said, “Whether I have the strength or not isn’t up to you. It’s up to my fists.”
Ron’s gaze had suddenly become sharp, and Howen sensed that the Ron in front of him seemed to have changed into a different person all of a sudden. Like an unsheathed blade, he said coldly, “Howen, didn’t you want to attack me just now? It so happens that I haven’t fought anyone for two years. Now, I would like to have a duel with you! Let’s see who’s the loser!”
What the f*ck? Did I hear that right?
Everyone looked at Ron in disbelief.
Has Ron just said that? He wants to fight Howen?
The other party is a top student of the Sky Blue Magic Academy. He is already a Great Mage with unfathomable strength, while Ron is a loser. And yet now, he has actually initiated a fight with Howen? Isn’t this courting death?
Many people looked toward Norton, including Colin Campbell. However, Norton remained calm and did not seem worried at all. After sensing Colin Campbell’s questioning gaze, he raised his teacup and said, “This tea is not bad. Do have some more.”
Colin Campbell was speechless.
Why are you not stopping your grandson from courting death?
However, when he saw that Norton did not seem worried at all, Colin Campbell’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Can it be that Ron is actually not as useless as he has thought and he has been able to continue cultivating? This has to be the case. Otherwise, why is Norton so calm?
Colin Campbell also looked curiously toward the arena.
Serena was most worried when she heard Ron challenging Howen to a duel. She knew very well how strong Howen was. Even she was no match for Howen, let alone Ron.
“Brother Ron…”
Serena said worriedly, but before she could finish, Howen shouted, “Alright! I agree!”
Howen said, “Originally, I shouldn’t have agreed. However, as a student of the Sky Blue Magic Academy, if an outsider challenges me to a fight and I dare not even accept it, and if the news gets out, it will certainly cause our Sky Blue Magic Academy to lose face. So, in order to protect the dignity of our Sky Blue Magic Academy, I have to accept your challenge!”
Howen spoke with a strong sense of righteousness. Since this was the case, the others could not stop him from agreeing to this duel. If they stopped him, it would bring embarrassment upon the Sky Blue Magical Power Academy. This would be equivalent to offending the Sky Blue Magic Academy. No one who was present dared to offend the Sky Blue Magic Academy.
Then Howen put on an act and said to Ron, “To be fair, I’ll not use magical power. I’ll just fight you with my fists and kicks, lest people say I’m bullying you.”
The main reason Howen had said this was because if he used magical power on a person without a cultivation base like Ron, he might kill Ron directly. If this happened, his junior, Serena, would definitely hate him for life and might even fight him to the death. This was not what he wanted. He just wanted to teach Ron a severe lesson in front of Serena, and even humiliate him, so that he would back off and then, he would have achieved his goal.
He continued, “Since this duel started because of the engagement, then after our duel, if I win, you will take the initiative to annul the engagement. If I lose, I will immediately leave and not interfere anymore with your affairs. What do you think?”
This had been his real goal, but he did not believe that a loser could defeat him.
“No, I won’t use my fiancée as a bet.” Ron directly rejected the other party’s suggestion, and said without caring about Howen’s angry expression, “I just want to fight you and see who’s the loser!”
“Heh ~ ~” Howen laughed from anger and said, “Although you are lacking in strength and a loser, I admire your ability to talk. Since you’re so stubborn and insist on courting death, then I shall grant you your wish!” After saying this, Howen stood up and walked towards the door.
The house was too crowded for them to fight. Seeing this, Ron also got up to follow him, but just as he had gotten up, someone grabbed his hand.
When Ron turned around, he saw the worried look in Serena’s eyes. “Brother Ron, don’t fight this duel…..” Serena dared not say too much for fear of agitating Ron.
Ron gently patted the back of Serena’s hand and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Even now, Serena probably still thought that he had no cultivation base. However, notwithstanding this, Serena still liked him a lot. It seemed that he had not misjudged her, so all the more, he must not disappoint her.
Initially, Serena had been very worried for Ron, but after hearing Ron’s words, she somehow developed trust in him.
If it is something Brother Ron has said he will do, he will definitely do it. This duel will also be no exception!
Then, Ron followed Howen out in big strides.
Colin Campbell looked at Norton and asked, “Brother Norton, are you really not going to stop him?”
Norton smiled gently and said, “It’s all right. I’m sure my grandson won’t disappoint me.”
Colin was speechless.
Why are you trusting your grandson so much? The other party is someone whose existence even he dares not take lightly.
Maril, the head of the Grimm family clan, however, was so excited that he almost wanted to clap.
Haha, this is great.. This time, not only will that loser Ron be beaten to death, he has also provoked the Sky Blue Magic Academy. Let’s see how your Nicholas family clan can still have a foothold here in the future!
