Chapter 927: Chapter 927: The Death of the Grandmaster
The seemingly slight snap of a finger, yet it exploded in everyone’s ears like thunder!
Charmy Kims’ body trembled, and his face instantly turned ashen to the extreme!
Then, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
His figure unsteady.
On top of the water column, he swayed perilously.
"This is..."
On the shore, the martial artists were dumbfounded.
The moment the snapping sound reached them, they felt an overwhelming murderous intent!
An endless aura emanated from the fingertips of Julius Reed.
Then, it wildly spread out!
The carp in the sky were forcibly stopped by this aura, shedding the techniques Charmy Kims had imposed on them.
"This is bad!"
Jerry Anderson frowned deeply, hesitating whether he should intervene.
It appeared that Charmy Kims had been disastrously defeated!
This outcome was unacceptable to him.
Days of planning, stirring up a storm in the city!
Wasn’t it all for a battle to make a name for himself?
Today, indeed, a name was made in battle.
Only the protagonist had changed to Julius Reed.
The stage was set, only to end up as a wedding dress for someone else.
"If you intervene, the prestige of the Martial Arts Association will be swept away! The reputation, completely destroyed!"
Baron Grey advised him at his side.
The whole world was watching.
The Association proclaimed itself the holy land of martial arts, was it going to bully by outnumbering?
"Outsiders will say we can’t tolerate losing!"
His hand, tightly pressed on Jerry Anderson’s leg! 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
"President, stay calm!"
"Sigh!"
Jerry Anderson closed his eyes.
Angry, unwilling!
Yet helpless!
He could only watch helplessly as Charmy Kims fell to defeat!
The park once again fell into an eerie silence.
Only the sound of the waves on the lake continuously reached them.
"Some people say, a Grandmaster never dies."
Julius Reed stood atop the high waves, hands behind his back.
With an attitude that overlooked all sentient beings, he gazed down at the disheveled Charmy Kims below.
"A Grandmaster doesn’t die!"
Charmy Kims screamed madly!
He was a five-star martial artist, the vice-president of the Martial Arts Association!
Yesterday, right here in the middle of this lake!
He accepted the worship of countless martial artists!
Yet now, he was being beaten without the ability to fight back.
"Just right, I’ll prove to everyone."
Julius Reed slowly lifted one hand, his expression utterly cold: "A Grandmaster, too, is human. And humans, all alike can die."
Boom!
He raised his right hand high!
A dragon’s roar echoed over the surface of the lake!
Then!
From beneath Charmy Kims at the surface of the lake, two water dragons burst forth!
Coiling around and pushing him into the air!
Boom!
Twin dragons play with pearls, water flying everywhere!
Charmy Kims, like a kite with its string cut, smashed directly onto the lake’s surface!
Splash!
Water splashed high.
The entire crowd held their breath.
Their eyes, intently fixed on the lake surface.
They knew, Charmy Kims would appear again!
A Grandmaster doesn’t die!
Ten seconds later.
A dark figure slowly surfaced.
The body of Charmy Kims, floating on the water.
He appeared.
Only now, devoid of any sign of life.
"A Grandmaster... dead?"
The martial artists gaped, stunned.
They felt as if struck by lightning, their minds blank.
Their eyes, stayed on the dark silhouette floating on the lake.
A Grandmaster, the realm they pursued all their lives!
Yet in the blink of an eye, slain!
It is widely said, a Grandmaster never dies.
A Grandmaster is like a deity.
But now, someone had killed a god.
Ended a doctrine.
They didn’t want to believe it, yet the body of Charmy Kims floated on the lake.
The martial artists could not sense even a trace of his aura.
On the lake, there was only the domineering presence of Julius Reed looking disdainfully at the world!
"It can’t possibly be real..."
Some martial artists collapsed on the ground, their expressions vacant.
Their beliefs, shattered in an instant!
Martial Arts Association, the sacred land of martial arts!
Charmy Kims was a five-star martial artist and also the vice president of the Martial Arts Association!
Yet such a significant figure was easily assassinated.
Is it still a sacred land?
"Charmy!"
Boom!
Jerry Anderson’s aura fully unleashed, a boundless killing intent spread throughout the park.
Many people felt a chill and couldn’t help but wrap their clothes tighter.
"If you make a move, the reputation of the Martial Arts Association will surely be destroyed! At that time, you would be making an enemy of the entire association!"
Baron Grey said in a heavy voice.
If he didn’t act, his reputation could still be preserved.
They could strike back later!
But to make a move now, means nothing about the sacred land!
It’s just the tyranny of the majority.
"I can’t swallow this insult!"
Jerry Anderson closed his eyes, his body uncontrollably trembling.
"You must endure!"
Baron Grey finished speaking and likewise closed his eyes.
He dared not look.
"Look quick! What is that!"
Just then, someone exclaimed!
Swish!
They saw, high in the sky.
Beneath the helicopter.
A flag slowly descended!
This flag was thirty meters long and fifteen meters wide!
Even those people on the shore could see it very clearly!
"Golden Dragon Swallowing the Sun!"
Someone shouted out loud.
"It’s... Seven Clouds Academy..."
Some strong individuals who had infiltrated from the martial world dramatically changed their expressions!
Seven Clouds Academy, once the overlord of the martial world!
Now, they had only heard that Seven Clouds Academy had re-emerged.
But no one expected it to be in this manner!
They announced their return by assassinating a grandmaster and raising their flag.
A breeze blew.
The flag fluttered noisily.
Julius Reed stood above a column of water, his brows slightly furrowed.
This act of assassinating Charmy Kims had nearly drained his physical strength.
A Grandmaster.
If his strength had recovered, he could have killed him in the blink of an eye.
However, after his battle with Atticus Ellsworth, he was already injured.
Now, to shock those in the martial world coveting the Divine Dragon Tripod, Julius Reed forced himself despite his physical strain, activating the "Twin Dragons from the Sea".
His body was already feeling unwell.
"Quick, go report to the team leader, Seven Clouds Academy has re-emerged, hold off on actions!"
"Take all members and scatter to lay low in various parts of the capital city, be ready at any moment!"
"Withdraw..."
In the park.
In many unnoticed corners, Shadow Warriors from the martial world began to leave one after another.
The Martial Arts Association had a formidable presence, hard to ignore.
But now,
Julius Reed killed a grandmaster with a flick!
They dared not confront him head-on.
No one likes to prolong their death warrant; these individuals did not think they were more capable than Charmy Kims either.
The Divine Dragon Tripod is desirable, but one must be alive to enjoy it.
Thus,
The previously bustling Brighton Lake.
Almost a thousand people withdrew in an instant.
Charmy Kims had been dead for full ten minutes.
But the people by the lake were still in shock.
They stared at the floating corpse, their gazes vacant.
From yesterday’s "Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate" to today’s "Twin Dragons Playing with Pearls"!
The main character had changed.
Up in the sky, that floating "Golden Dragon Swallowing the Sun" flag was particularly dazzling.
Beneath the flag.
Julius Reed appeared almost godlike, overlooking the mortals.
"What to do..."
Nikodem Lee lay in a chair, his entire body shaking.
Darrell Huntington’s face was completely pale.
"Half a month, he said I should take my own life within half a month... No, Charmy Kims can’t possibly lose, he was a grandmaster after all!"
"Darrell Huntington, wake up!"
Nikodem Lee staggered over, grabbed his collar, and shook him violently!
"Charmy Kims is dead, even the Martial Arts Association couldn’t protect him, Julius Reed killed him!"
But just then!
A figure suddenly appeared on the lake surface!
The figure was dressed in a blood-colored battle armor, hair silver and face ashen!
His feet touched the water as he sprinted forward!
In his hand, he wielded a long spear with a bone-chilling glow!
"Ha!"
The spear entered the water!
Then, it stirred up a giant wave!
