Farrell couldn't be bothered with the fight at all, as Fade was a nobody to him and he was confident that his men would take him down easily. However, just as he turned around to fix his gaze elsewhere, a series of miserable cries could be heard before they were thrown in the lake. Farrell snapped his head around and was dumbfounded at what he saw. His men were tossed into the Swallow Lake, their humiliating faces all swollen.

Then, he looked over at Fade, who was still standing on the same spot, poised as ever.

At such a sight, Farrell pulled his brows together and asked in confusion, "How, how could it be..."

At this moment, someone next to him returned a response.

"He is Fade Chen, the champion of the Earth-level Realm in the Martial Arts Contest."

"He is the one who defeated Faxon."

"He's also the number one on the Hidden Dragon List."

Hearing this, Farrell's eyes flickered slightly as he revealed a strange expression. However, his gaze soon returned to the arrogant look from before. He sneered, "So what if he's a champion? Put whatever spin you want on it. He's no more than someone with nothing but strength. You are all circus animals competing to see who is the better one.

D*mn, martial artists are just mere bodyguards to me," he said dismissively, "What era are we living in, and why are you guys still fighting with your bare hands. You uncivilized folks."

"I know not a thing about martial arts, but do you dare lay a finger on me, a member of the Hu family?" Farrell looked arrogantly at Fade, his face awash in pride.

Squinting his eyes, a trace of anger flashed in Fade's gaze. His arm moved slightly and he was about to make a move.

However, at the same time, Moore rose to his feet, looked at Fade and said, "Young man, thank you for your help, but leave this matter to me."

After that, Moore cut a glance at Farrell and said, "Let go of my Frost Plum Blossom."

Farrell, with his stuck-up face still intact, said, "If I don't let it go, what can you do? Hit me?"

As soon as he finished his words, a cold light darted across Moore's eyes, and then a crisp sound was heard.

Farrell let out a miserable cry. His right arm which was holding the Frost Plum Blossom was snapped broken. Cold sweat was dripping down from his forehead as another wretched cry escaped from his lips. "You, how dare you hit me... You broke my arm! I want you dead! I'll kill you!" Farrell gritted his teeth.

Moore ignored Farrell's curses and carefully reclaimed the Frost Plum Blossom from his right hand. Then, with a slight push, gone was Farrell as he was thrown into the lake, accompanied by a string of cries. The crowd was astonished at the scene.

They couldn't believe it. Farrell was obviously someone with an exalted status from the Hu family. No one would dare to ruffle his feathers.

Not to mention Fade wiping out his followers, even Moore made his move on him. The crowd couldn't come to their senses for a while.

Ignoring the stares and comments from the crowd, Moore clapped his hands and restored the Frost Plum Blossom to its original place. Then he looked at Fade and said, "Thank you for your help, young man." Fade smiled and said, "It seems like you didn't even need my help. You're strong enough on your own. I was just lending a hand."

Moore shook his head and replied, "You were brave enough to act out in that situation. That alone should warrant my thanks."

Fade cupped one hand in the other before his chest and said, "Sir, you flattered me. I had my own selfish motives as I hope to get the Frost Plum Blossom from you."

Moore said, "It doesn't matter what you were thinking. No matter what your motive is, I should thank you for helping me."

Hearing this, Fade said in a joking tone, "So, sir, are you willing to sell the Frost Plum Blossom to me?"

Moore shook his head and said, "My apologies, but if you want to obtain it, you will have to follow the rules and break through all three formations."

"But of course, I will still give you something for helping me." He looked at Fade.

Hearing this, Fade quickly smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You're welcome, sir. I'm just kidding. You don't have to worry about it, but I do have some ideas about the formation."

"Then I'm looking forward to seeing you break the formation, young man." A trace of surprise appeared on Moore's face.

Fade nodded and said, "Give me a little more time."

Moore nodded and did not say anything, nor did he disturb Fade. He allowed him to observe the formations carefully.

Time passed by, one second after another.

Five minutes. Fifteen minutes. Half an hour. An hour had passed.

At the beginning, some people were still curious about it as they stood beside Fade and started studying the formation with him. However, after watching for a while, they still couldn't find their way through it, so they all left with a sigh.

The crowd around him had been changing with time. Only Fade and Moore were standing there in silence all the time.

Moore was not anxious. Where Fade did not say anything, he would just allow him to observe and study in silence. Another hour passed in silence.

Even the lively Swallow Lake gradually quieted down. Most of the crowd had already left the venue.

The sky was dark, and midnight was nigh. Only a few staff members, as well as some martial artists who still had something to do stayed in the venue.

There were no customers beside Fade, Tom and Jasmine at the stall.

Even Tom and Jasmine were slightly confused at the sight of Fade standing there for two whole hours.

However, Moore was still calm and not a sliver of restlessness shown.

In the middle of the night, the moon rose to the highest point. The cold moonlight sprinkled on the lake, as if the Swallow Lake was speckled with silver glitters. The moonlight swayed gently in the wind, shining brightly and dazzlingly.

At that moment, Fade suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at Moore. He smiled and said, "I got it."

Hearing this, Moore also showed a hint of excitement. He gently pointed to the three pieces of white cloth on the linen and said to Fade, "Please."

He attached himself to the first formation and began to move his finger. "The first formation is mainly a Stone Defence Formation and there are some slight changes on its foundation. However, the basic principle is still unchanged. It absorbs the earth energy from the stones and soil to form a protective formation. Since its main characteristic is strong and hard, it is difficult to break it directly.

If you want to break through this formation, this point here is where you should start. First, deal with the positive energy to break through this weak point, and then follow this route to break through the points one by one..."

Fade gesticulated the formation at ease. In the beginning, Tom and Jasmine were still able to understand his words.

However, shortly after, they couldn't keep up with Fade's movements and words. They had not the slightest inkling what he was talking about at all. In the end, they could only sigh and give up.

However, Moore listened carefully to Fade's words and watched his movements. His eyes were sparkling, and a smile broke across his face.

One was gesturing and explaining, while the other was paying rapt attention, listening, nodding and even raising some questions.
