Bang!
Just then, a sudden grunt echoed through the area. A figure on the stage collapsed while Quinlan remained standing!
“Mr. Quinlan is impressive!”
“Mr. Quinlan is bound to win!”
“Mr. Quinlan is so awesome!”
For a moment, everyone in the audience was in an uproar, shouting loudly. Even the middle-aged man, who had just been quiet, was cheering enthusiastically for Quinlan.
Upon seeing the middle-aged man yelling out loud, Jared asked in confusion, “You know it’s a sham. Why are you still cheering?”
“What do you know? Just follow my lead, and you’ll understand soon enough,” the middle-aged man urged Jared and the others to join in the shouting.
On the elevated stage, Quinlan faced the crowd’s cheers with smug satisfaction, his eyes brimming with arrogance.
“Enjoy!” Quinlan shouted.
Following that, someone at the edge of the crowd reached into an item pouch and astonishingly began to scatter celestial coins.
At that point, the crowd became even more stirred up, wildly snatching up the coins.
Upon witnessing that scene, Jared was completely stunned.
What the f*ck is this?!
He worked like hell to reach the celestial realm just to have people lick his boots?!
He doesn’t even have the backbone of an ordinary person…
Everyone was scrambling to pick up the celestial coins. Even Reidan was lowering his body to grab the coins.
The big man and the blue-eyed gentleman both bent down.
At that moment, everyone except Jared was frantically scavenging for the celestial coins on the ground.
Jared stood out like a sore thumb, showing absolutely no interest in the scattered celestial coins.
Atop the high platform, Quinlan spotted Jared, and at that very moment, Jared was also looking up at him!
Suddenly, a sense of unease stirred within Quinlan as they faced each other.
Following the shutting down of the high platform’s formation, the person who had just been defeated leaped down from the platform.
“Anyone else?” Quinlan shouted.
Almost immediately, someone sprang into action, leaping onto the elevated stage.
Without any further ado, a flurry of punches and kicks were exchanged, and in the end, Quinlan emerged victorious.
Following his win, the crowd began to shower with praises. After all, Quinlan’s family had a vast empire. When Quinlan was pleased by their flattering, which greatly enjoyed, was willing to be generous.
Every victory would lead to have his subordinates distribute celestial coins generously. However, every time, Jared would remain upright, never lowering his body even once.
Quinlan’s curiosity toward Jared grew, but his gaze toward the latter was also becoming increasingly sharp. Despite his offering, Jared remained utterly unmoved.
From his perspective, it was a blatant disregard for his dignity. Thus, Quinlan had already decided that once the match was over, would investigate Jared’s identity and background.
In any case, Quinlan successively defeated eight opponents. He was on the brink of challenging ten people without having to step off the stage.
During the ninth round, Quinlan glanced at the crowd below and asked, “Who’s next?”
Just as a guy was about to speak, Jared went first. “I want to try!”
After Jared finished speaking, unexpectedly leaped onto the stage.
Frowning, Quinlan stared intently at Jared.
The others were flabbergasted, staring at Jared on stage and wondering, “Who does this guy think is? Doesn’t know the rules?”
“How dare cause trouble during Mr. Quinlan’s match! He must have been tired of living!”
“Is this guy trying to take advantage of the situation, seeing that Mr. Quinlan had already fought in eight rounds?”
“With his small stature, I bet Mr. Quinlan could knock down with just two punches.”
Everyone was abuzz with discussions about Jared’s sudden appearance.
The middle-aged man turned to Reidan and asked, “Are you two together?”
“Indeed…” Reidan nodded in agreement.
“Then you should find yourself a new companion. This young man is doomed. He has offended the Laberge family. He has no way out but death,” the middle-aged man advised.
“Perhaps it’s not necessarily the case. Maybe my companion has an even more prominent background than that so-called Mr. Quinlan,” Reidan responded with a slight smile.
