The arena served as a ce for fight tournaments among the


    different martial arts halls under the Jonford Martial Arts Association.


    Robert and a few staff members were held hostage in this building.


    The building was swarming with over 30 members of the association and around 15 to 16 martial artists from the Freeman family. The Freemans were all dressed in yellow martial arts uniforms.


    In one of the offices, a fatty dressed in a yellow martial arts uniform


    was casually drinking tea.


    He was the master of a martial arts hall in the neighboring country,


    Hisara. He was also Robert''s acquaintance. However, unlike Robert, he was an eighth-division great-grandmaster.


    For that reason, he was assigned to be stationed at the headquarters by the Freemans when he reached Xanthalos yesterday.


    ncing at Robert, he said nonchntly, "My good old friend, Robert, you''re aware that all the Southern martial arts halls have already pledged their allegiance to the Southern Martial Alliance, right? Why are you being so stubborn? It won''t get you anywhere!"


    Robert''s legs were tied, and his trigger points were locked, making him unable to move. As such, he remained still on the couch as he


    said, "Since ancient times, evil has never won. What you guys are doing is wrong! Mark my words, you''ll get the punishment you


    deserve!"


    "Now that''s not a good thing to say, eh, Robert? How can you say Chapter 1235


    we''re evil? The Southern Martial Alliance only wants tobine


    martial arts halls so that all members have amon home! What''sThis content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    wrong with that?


    "Besides, this alliance is backed by the National Martial Bureau, you


    know. This means we even have government support!" the fatty put


    his teacup down and argued.


    He did not see anything wrong with the alliance.


    He had never liked the idea of independent martial arts halls. He found them difficult to manage.


    Moreover, the tension between the halls had escted dramatically


    Lover these past decades.


    The establishment of the alliance was like a hemp rope, where all the different martial arts schools woulde together united and strong,


    Hearing his words, Robert sneered coldly, "Oh yeah? You guys aren


    evil? Well, how would you exin the hundreds of innocent lives tha


    were lost at the Cosmos Martial Arts Hall and the Meyer Fist Martial Arts Hall, then?"


    The fatty replied indifferently, "The strong survive, and the weak


    perish. Surely, you''ve heard of this before?"


    "It''s impossible to talk to you!"


    Robert gave up on arguing. He closed his eyes and did not say anything more.


    To him, they had all been brainwashed by the Freemans.


    There was no point in arguing.


    Robert could only pray silently for Nash to save them all.


    On the other couch, Winston was also tied up like Robert. Feeling


    helpless, he sighed heavily.


    The Freemans should have taken control of all the martial arts halls


    in Xanthalos by now. He did not even know if Wendy was safe. Suddenly, a window shattered, and a ck figure came through it. Shards of ss flew in all directions, all of which were infused with


    true energy.


    The next moment, all members of the Freeman family copsed to the ground. They had all reached the fifth division of the Energy


    Cultivation Realm.


    Hearing themotion, the fatty got up and went to check out the


    situation.


    Just as he was about to open the office door, the door was kick


    back forcefully, causing him to stagger backward.


    "Mr. Calcraft!"


    "Nash!"


    Robert and Winston nearly burst into tears when they saw that Nash


    hade to the rescue.


    The fatty squinted his eyes and said, "Are you the guy who''s on the


    Freeman''s wanted list?"


    "That''s me!" Nash replied and immediately kicked the fatty in his


    gut, sending the fatty flying back against the wall.


    The fatty crashed into the wall and


    copsed onto the ground with an loud thod.


    Nash walked over to the couch, untied both Winston and Robert, and unlocked


    their trigger points.


    Winston said immediately, "Please save my sister, Nash... She''s..."


    "Don''t worry, she''s fine," Nash replied.


    Thinking about the callst night,


    Robert fell to his knees and said


    apologetically, "I''m so sorry about e yesterday night, Mr. Calcraft.
