“What are you laughing at?” Steph glared at Jacob as she gritted her teeth with a fierce look, “I’ll bash
you up!”
What’s wrong with this woman? Threatening to beat more people when she beat the wrong one?
Jacob shook his head casually and pointed at the crowd surrounding them, “Everyone is laughing, are
you supposed to beat everyone now?”
The crowd was terrified to hear that – they had just witnessed this lady send a fully grown man flying with
a kick. Although she boasted a beautiful face, she was surely not one to be trifled with!
At this point, several large men in the Everwin Martial Arts School uniform made their way to the scene.
Leading the bunch was a thick, husky man with a pair of glaring eyes. He yelled furiously, “Who here
dares to laugh at my senior? Step out and come at me!”
A roar of the man made the crowd disperse in an instant. Even the couple who was filming the video

Facing the group of aggressive and sweaty men, Franklin took a step forward with the sword as he
smiled, “This is just a misunderstanding! As a matter of fact, my son and I have come today to pay a visit
to Master Roman to show our gratitude to him!”
The men’s expression quickly became less hostile at the sound of Master Roman’s name.
Steph glanced at Jacob, raised her chin, and snorted before turning around, then wiggled off with her
petite figure.
I don’t suppose I did anything wrong to her, did I? He frowned slightly.
Franklin noticed the expression on Jacob’s face and said, “These guys do martial arts for a living, it’s
normal that they have a short temper. When we get to the school later, you must be patient.”
Jacob nodded, “Dad, don’t worry, I’m not a kid, I won’t hold onto this.”
The father and son pair followed behind Steph and the others while they spoke.
They had barely walked two hundred meters when they heard someone shout, “The challenger from
yesterday has returned! Everyone, hurry up and go to Everwin!”
Everyone on the streets burst into a series of murmurs as they collectively swarmed in the same
direction – leading the way were Steph and the men from the school.
“Seems like we picked the wrong day!” Franklin shook his head with a sigh when he saw everyone
scurrying towards the school.
“Dad, shall we come again tomorrow?” Jacob raised a brow.
After a moment of silence, Franklin put up a hand, “We’ve already met the people from the school, it’d be
rude not to show up, wouldn’t it? Forget it, let’s go and play by ear.”
Following that, he took off in large strides. Deep in his eyes was nothing but enthusiastic fire. Boy, an
open challenge, first of my life, it’d be a waste to miss out on this opportunity!
If Jacob had known what was going through his father’s mind, he would have been lost for words.

each side of the door. Unfortunately, the entrance had been filled with bystanders at this point.
Jacob had no interest in the challenge whatsoever. He frowned at the overzealous crowd. “Dad, I don’t
think we have a choice at this point, the door has been completely blocked.”
“Yeah, what a shame, we just missed out!” There was a clear sign of disappointment on Franklin’s face
as he shook his head.
Just as the pair was planning to turn and leave, a deep, hoarse voice sounded from the school, “So this
is the master of the Everwin Martial Arts School? Hoho, I can’t see anything special about you.”
Jacob slowly planted his right leg as soon as he heard the voice. A mysterious light flashed across his
eyes as he turned around and threw his gaze at the school.
He lightly shook his head before turning to his father with a raised brow, “Dad, do you feel like going in
for a closer look?”
