SWNOVELS Chapter 201
Chapter 201
“I don’t care how busy they are. Tell them to get over here right away. Or I suppose their Elder positions can be given to
someone else.”
Leonard’s voice was freezing cold.
There was nothing but dead silence in the hall.
It was as if the atmosphere in the entire hall was frozen.
No one expected Leonard to be so arrogant, claiming to replace the Elders.
After all, their positions as the Elders were personally appointed by Ibrahim when he founded the Galen Group.
Moreover, the Elders had held great power in the Galen Group in recent years and developed enormous forces.
By saying this, Leonard was basically putting himself completely against them.
After hearing this, Benjamin’s expression also changed drastically.
Just when the atmosphere was heavy, a loud voice came from outside.
“Who wants to replace me?”
Then, an old man wearing a white suit strode in.
The moment he stepped into the hall, a terrifying aura surged over everyone.
He stood in the center of the hall, looking at Leonard fiercely with a bit of ridicule in his
eyes.
It was Egbert Landon of the Galen Group.
“Mr. Santos, this is the first time you have come to the headquarters, yet you want to replace us just because we are busy with
something else. This is complete nonsense. In my opinion, you are not qualified to inherit the position of the Lord at all.”
Egbert said with a sneer.
Facing the future Lord, Leonard, Egbert showed no respect at all and confronted him directly.
As Egbert finished speaking, a terrifying aura crushed towards Leonard like a tide.
He just wanted to intimidate Leonard.
Egbert was the Elder of the Grand Master Realm, and at this moment, the aura around his body was like a tsunami sweeping
over the hall, suffocating everyone in it.
Such a powerful aura was the unique Fist
Spirit of Grand Master Realm, and it could instantly damage the mind of a Transformation-Realm martial artist.
severely.
Even those who had just entered the Grand Master Realm would not be able to bear it.
Although Egbert was mainly targeting Leonard, even the remaining of his aura was enough to make everyone else present feel
frightened.
However, surprisingly, Leonard was still sitting there, as steady as a rock.
This terrifying Fist Spirit did not seem to have the slightest effect on him.
And just when Egbert and everyone present felt surprised and did not know how to react, Leonard slowly stood up from the chair.
The moment when his body stood completely upright, a roaring sound suddenly appeared in the hall.
The aura that enveloped Leonard was instantly shattered.
Egbert’s body swayed slightly, and his face turned slightly pale.
This was the backlash of his Fist Spirit.
The Fist Spirit of martial artists was the manifestation of their mind and soul. Once it was shattered, their mind would be heavily
damaged because of the backlash.
Benjamin, who was on the side, had a look of horror on his face.
He knew how strong Egbert was very well. Thus, more than anyone, he was surprised that Egbert was at a disadvantage in
terms of aura.
“We have underestimated Mr. Santos.”
All the people here were master martial artists, and they also understood what had just happened.
Looking at Leonard, their eyes were filled with shock.
Especially Max, who was also in the crowd.
Although he did not approve of Leonard’s authority over him, he had to admit that he would break instantly facing Egbert’s Fist
Spirit.
Thus, since Leonard shattered Egbert’s Fist Spirit, it would mean that Leonard was much stronger than him.
Max thought that he was the strongest among his generation because he had
entered the Grand Master Realm. However,
to his absolute surprise, the gap between him and Leonard was still enormous.
Egbert’s expression was extremely bleak at this moment.
Losing to Leonard in front of so many people made him feel humiliated.
He squinted his eyes, stared at Leonard, and said, “Mr. Santos, you broke my Fist Spirit, not bad. Looks like we knew too little
about
you.
“But this doesn’t prove anything. Thus, I would like to personally test out your strength.”
Then, Egbert’s aura started to rise steadily. Clearly, he could not accept his defeat and wanted to regain some dignity.
Leonard looked indifferent. He looked at Egbert coldly and said, “Elder Landon, it seems you still don’t have the slightest idea of
the situation you’re in.
“I deliberately held back just now to give you a chance to change and start afresh. Since you decided to push your luck instead
of taking that chance, you shall learn today that you are not even worth mentioning to me.”
As Leonard’s voice sounded, everyone’s expressions were filled with astonishment.
They thought, “This Leonard really talks big. Even though he was able to break Egbert’s aura, which shows he’s quite strong, it’s
still too arrogant for him to
underestimate Egbert so much. After all, Egbert is at the Later Level of the Grand Master Realm.”
Benjamin, who was on the side, could not help but say, “Mr. Santos, you are indeed very strong, but you still don’t understand
the strength of the Elders of the Galen Group. I’m afraid you are far from being strong enough to defeat Elder Landon.
“Elder Landon was just testing you just now and did not use his full strength. Otherwise, how could you have broken his aura so
easily?”
Egbert even sneered and said, “Mr. Santos, anything can happen in a fight. If I accidentally hurt you, don’t blame me for being
disrespectful.”
Leonard said impatiently, “Cut the crap. If you want to fight, just fight. What’s with all the talk?”
Right after Leonard finished talking,
without waiting for Egbert to speak, he took a step forward and punched directly toward Egbert.
His purpose for this visit to the Galen
Group was none other than to put an end to all the objections these people had against him with raw force.
Since Egbert handed the opportunity to Leonard on a silver platter, he might as well make an example out of him.
When Egbert saw that Leonard dared to strike first, his eyes became fierce.
He stepped on the ground and dashed directly toward Leonard.
As he moved forward, deep footprints appeared on the ground behind him, showing the terrifying strength of a Grand Master.
The two fists met quickly in the air.
There was a sinister look in the eyes of Egbert.
He knew very well how powerful his punch was. He was certain it would teach this
arrogant kid a painful lesson.
The next moment, the fists of both sides collided.
There was a loud explosion.
The power of both sides exploded.
In the hall, with the two of them at the center, a strong wind howled and swept in
all directions.
As it swept by the wooden chairs, they exploded instantly, turning into sawdust and scattering everywhere.
It was a horrifying scene.
Since the wind from the explosion was already this powerful, it was not difficult to imagine just how strong the two colliding forces
were.
“Who won?”
“Egbert’s punch was so powerful. Wouldn’t Leonard’s entire arm be broken?”
“Egbert’s strength is too terrifying!”
The people present could not even open their eyes in the face of the strong wind.
After a few seconds, they finally stood up straight and looked at the center of the hall, wanting to know the final outcome of the
battle.
However, when they saw it clearly, disbelief appeared on everyone’s face.
Especially Benjamin. His expression was the most cloudy and filled with deep fear.
Leonard stood there proudly in the center of the hall while Egbert’s entire arm was hanging loose.
Egbert was half-kneeling on the ground, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Overwhelming defeat!
