Nash grimaced at Barton's words. He placed a hand on Barton's

clenched fist and said, "I know you're thirsty for revenge, but you've got to keep your head cool for now. assure you, the Voodoo Parasite King will die today!"

Nash could not even imagine the pain Barton went through when hel

was forced to end his father's and grandfather's lives.

Barton inhaled and exhaled deeply, reining in his anger.

Meanwhile, at the other table, Yelzog said with a frown, "What?! The

Freemans invited him too?"

Rosellia looked at her father in confusion as she asked, "Who is he?"

Yelzog smrti grimly, He's the Voodoo Parasite King. People also call

him the King of Shealor."

Hearing her father's words, Rosella's face went pale as she sa was unable to keep the quaver out of her voice. "D-Doesn't that

he's a sorcerer?

She thought the alliance would be made up entirely of different

martial arts families, like the ones she saw in movies.

She had never expected the alliance to have ties with evil

practitioners.

Yelzog sneered, "What a great choice, Freeman!"

He then turned to his men and said, "Listen to me. If Nash were to

challenge the alliance later, your orders are to sit back and watch, do you understand me?"

Meanwhile, Isaac was also telling Isadora about the Voodoo Parasite

King.

Isadora's brows came into a frown as she said, "I knew it. The

Freemans are never up to anything good! Luckily, we've decided to be on Nash's side!"

Isaac sighed and said, "I've no idea how this is going to play out. With the Voodoo Parasite King on their side, the Freemans may likely be the last one standing in the end!"

Noticing a hint of hesitation in her father's tone, Isadora said with a frown, "Dad, you're not thinking of changing sides, are you? We're all

in the same boat now. We shouldn't be regretting our decisi

Isaac lit a cigarette and said adamantly, "Of course not! I'm my word!"

At noon, all the guests had arrived.

A gentle breeze blew across the lake's surface, causing ripples to shimmer in the sunlight. A swarm of clouds drifted overhead, blocking the sun.

pretty.

Harold walked onto the stage where a projector screen was set up

with the words 'The Southern Martial Alliance Establishment

Ceremony'.

Harold did a mic test by coughing twice, and the crowd fell silent instantly.

Several guests even took out their phones.

They wanted to record this moment that would no doubt go down in the history of martial arts.

"First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all esteemed

quests who graced us with their presence at today's ceremony. Thank

youalliffor coming!

Hoorttikeppast 5,000 years, Drakonia had seen the rise and

martialarts empire. This empire wasn't simply the footho National Martial Bureau nor a gathering place for outlaws. No

musti noore than that.

"It was amernppire of martial arts practitioners, individuals devoted the pursuit of foultivation and training; individuals who pushed themselves beyond their limits in search of a higher force.

"We, as martial artists ourselves, have been taught to be brave and righteous, to help those in need, to punish the evil. We weren't meant to lead sedentary and monotonous lives!"

Harold's speech was sincere and passionate, igniting cheers from many guests, whose hearts burned with the same passion.

Pausing briefly for their cheers to subside, Harold's expression turned somber as he continued, "However, as you can see, the association is only recruiting disciples for the sake of numbers nowadays. "Many of these recruits lack proper training. They only know a few

basic moves and techniques."
