Chapter 838: Chapter 838 Saintly Martial Training Realm
On my way back, my mind was filled with thoughts of how to protect Mabel Sean.
After deep consideration, I roughly understood where my problem lay.
My biggest problem was my lack of deterrent power.
Although I had destroyed two sects overseas in a single breath, no one in my home country knew about it.
Only by increasing my deterrent power could I deter people from provoking me.
Like the Capital City Martial Arts Association, even though they didn’t have powerful combat forces, no one dared to provoke them.
Having arrived at this thought, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in my eyes.
"The Mystic Realm... it shouldn’t be under Pyro’s jurisdiction," I murmured with narrowed eyes.
If that was the case, I would take action against the Mystic Realm.
I would massacre an entire Mystic Realm, in order to tell the world that I, Mason Raymond, was more terrifying than the Capital City Martial Arts Association!
——
In Capital City, in a certain clubhouse.
This upscale clubhouse was unlike any other, with outdoor scenes replicated indoors.
The artificial mountains and water, with their realistic appearance, created a sensation of paradisiacal seclusion within the clubhouse.
At this moment, in a pavilion of the clubhouse.
Saumel Baton was brewing tea here.
Opposite him sat a middle-aged man.
Although the man’s strength was not noteworthy, merely a mid-term Martial Marquis, but his aura was noticeably formidable, discouraging any form of disrespect.
"Mr. Baton, what’s the matter? You look troubled," the middle-aged man asked.
Saumel Baton faintly smiled, "Mr. Avalynn, let’s have tea first."
Mr. Avalynn across from him nodded slightly.
After a few sips of tea, Saumel Baton finally started to speak.
In a deep voice, he said, "Mr. Avalynn, the Exchange Meeting will be held in a few days. Both the Baton Family and Avalynn Family are the main organizers, and the quotas are determined by us."
Mr. Avalynn nodded lightly, "Yes, what’s the matter?"
Saumel Baton stated, "I want you to help me invite someone."
"Invite someone? Who?" Mr. Avalynn wore a slightly furrowed brow.
A cold glint flashed in Saumel Baton’s eyes.
He said coldly, "Mason Raymond."
"Mason Raymond, the one who has been making headlines recently?" Mr. Avalynn inquired with a slight frown.
"Yes." Saumel Baton confirmed with a nod.
Mr. Avalynn smiled, "Why don’t you invite him yourself? I suppose your relationship with him may be somewhat closer?"
Saumel Baton let out a sigh, explaining the course of events to Mr. Avalynn.
"I’ve already said that I won’t let him come to this Exchange Meeting. If I invite him now, it will raise suspicions," Saumel Baton shook his head.
This left Mr. Avalynn even more puzzled.
He frowned, "Mr. Baton, given what you said, you should have made an enemy of him. Why invite him to the Exchange Meeting if that’s the case?"
At those words, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Saumel Baton’s eyes.
"Because... I intend to kill him!" Saumel Baton declared coldly.
"The world doesn’t allow the Martial Saint to take action, but without the Martial Saint, it’s impossible to kill Mason Raymond."
"As long as I can lure him into the Mystic Realm, I will get the Martial Saint to act and kill him directly!"
Mr. Avalynn suddenly realized.
"Summon the Martial Saint to kill Mason Raymond?" Mr. Avalynn said in surprise.
Saumel Baton nodded, "Yes, we mustn’t provide him with an opportunity to escape."
"Mr. Avalynn, as long as you help me with this, I will certainly remember your kindness!"
Mr. Avalynn considered for a moment, before finally nodding, "Alright, I promise."
Saumel Baton raised his teacup with a smile, "Then I must thank you, Mr. Avalynn."
The two clinked their glasses and reached a collaboration agreement.
——
Meanwhile, I was completely unaware of this.
Returning to the Martial Arts Academy, I considered how to acquire resources.
The Exchange Meeting was indeed a good option, but I had no opportunity to attend.
"Treasures..." I murmured softly.
After some thought, I realized I possessed quite a few treasures.
I had a handful of Divine Rank Artifacts, seized from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
However, the most precious were the formulas and Divine Rank techniques controlled by me!
These were left by my father, their value immeasurable.
"If I could enter the Exchange Meeting, I believe I would have a great chance of getting the Ten-thousand-year-old Medicinal Materials." I muttered softly.
But soon, I heaved a sigh.
Having offended Saumel Baton, the possibility of attending the Exchange Meeting was slim.
At that moment, someone entered from outside.
"Mason Raymond, the chairman has called us for a meeting at the square."
After dropping these words, the person hurriedly ran out.
"Meeting?" My brows slightly furrowed.
Without much thought, I immediately headed towards the square.
As I reached the square, I saw many students had already gathered.
Phoebe Billy and Garcia Coleman stood at the front.
"Mason Raymond!"
At this point, Bella Tad suddenly patted my shoulder from behind.
Seeing Bella Tad I said with surprise, "You’re back?"
Bella responded, "I just finished handling family affairs and rushed back."
Then, Bella asked, "How have you been recently? No incidents happened, right?"
"Nothing." I patted Bella’s shoulder back.
Scanning the elegant sons of Capital City, Bella coldly huffed, "Sooner or later, I’ll make this bunch disappear from the world!"
While we were chatting, Phoebe Billy on the stage cleared his throat.
He glanced at the crowd and said faintly, "Next, I will announce two important decisions."
"These decisions were made by Mr. Garcia Coleman."
Then, Phoebe Billy took out a document.
Holding the document, he read, "According to the Pyro official request, the Capital City Martial Arts Association wishes to guide the development of martial arts..."
He spoke much official rhetoric, but it was mostly nonsense.
"Now, we decide to increase admissions for the Martial Arts Academy by a hundred!"
"Second, we will start the second Mystic Realm journey, which will be in a month."
The two announcements immediately caused a sensation among the crowd.
The second Mystic Realm journey? The Capital City Martial Arts Association was going to open up a second Mystic Realm?
"Haha, I am indeed lucky. I just returned and there’s already a second Mystic Realm journey." Bella laughed heartily.
I was also somewhat surprised, but my intuition told me that the Capital City Martial Arts Association seemed to be scheming something.
My eyebrows furrowed slightly, but for the moment, I could not figure out what the Capital City Martial Arts Association was planning.
"What is it?" Noticing the change on my face, Bella asked.
I shook my head and said "It’s nothing."
"In half a month... my Power of Martial Saint will completely disappear." I muttered in a low voice.
Did they plan to use this opportunity to get rid of me?
Or, were they afraid that I’d disappear completely after half a month? So they offered the Mystic Realm as bait?
The probability was high!
"This Mystic Realm journey will be one of the most important journeys held by the Capital City Martial Arts Association. It’s internally referred to as the Saintly Martial Training Realm. I hope everyone will cherish this opportunity." Phoebe Billy continued.
