Chapter 0300
“No way, this can’t be happening!”
In the Sunlight Club’s main hall, Andrew’s eyes narrowed in shock as he watched Hec and Hunter’s thumbs hit the floor. His heart lurched.
He knew what Hec and Hunter were capable of.
These two individuals were widely renowned in the domestic fighters’ community, excelling in coordinated martial techniques. Their synergy went beyond the simple arithmetic of one-plus-one. By taking the initiative, they could even put a dominant figure in the fighters’ community at a disadvantage.
All that, and snobody just chopped off their fingers with a single, swift cut?
The dark-skinned man before them, while not lacking in strength, at best possessed vital energy. There was still a significant gap between him and a Grandmaster in the fighter community, they operated on a whole
different level!
Yet, could it be that the young man lounging on the couch, with just a few offhand tips, had enabled a vital energy fighter to leapfrog the ranks and take down not one, but two Grandmasters?
Even having seen it with his own eyes, he found it hard to swallow. How on earth did Ol’ Mare cto possess such a formidable expert?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Ray, you’re dragging your feet.”
Alexander, ever so composed, took another leisurely sip of his coffee before shaking his head slowly. “If that final slash had been just a tad quicker, you wouldn't have just nicked a finger, you’d have taken off a whole wrist.
“From this day on, you swing that blade of yours ten thousand times a day, no excuses, no shortcuts!”
Ray sheathed his alloy saber and bowed deeply to Alexander, his heart pounding with excitement.
In the days under Alexander's tutelage, both George and Ray had seen their abilities skyrocket. However, with so little time, their vital energy levels could not just skyrocket overnight, they were climbing steadily.
If he had to face those two Grandmasters on his own, he would be a goner for sure. However, with Alex’s off- the-cuff advice, he could punch way above his weight class and knock out two Grandmasters with a single move.
What could be more thrilling than that?
Sticking with Alexander was hands-down the smartest move he had ever made.
“Who are you?!”
In that tense moment, Hec and Hunter had just scooped up their severed thumb from the dirt, their hands slick with blood, faces twisted in agony. They stared at Alexander, eyes wide with a mix of fear and recognition. Nobody has moves like that... you’re no amateur!”

“We've crossed paths with stop-notch fighters back home. So, who taught you? Con, give us a name! Alexander just chuckled and shook his head.
Did these men think they deserved to know the War Temple Lord’s name? Not a chance.
“Did | overhear you guys were after Wanda?”
Alexander’s voice was steady, his gaze unflinching as he faced Andrew, Hec, and Hunter. “Leave the thumb as a souvenir, and beat it back to where you cfrom. No thumb, no mercy-take your pick.”
Andrew, Hec, and Hunter were silent, teeth clacking in fear. They did not dare make a peep.
Those guys were top-tier fighters, masters of energy transformation, but they knew they were outclassed. Alexander could spot a flaw in their moves with just a glance, and his presence was like a hidden storm- impossible to measure.
At that level, even the dominant figures in the fighters’ community they had encountered were far from matching up!
“Nice moves, and what an attitude!”
Andrew bit back his rage, his hand slowly leaving the knife at his side. With a deep, respectful nod to Alexander, he said, “The Zabaleta Ledger family concedes today! Should you ever cto Zabaleta, we'll roll out the red carpet for you. Until our paths cross again!”
With those biting words, he turned on his heel, Hec and Hunter in tow, and they started to walk away.
“It seems you didn’t quite catch my words.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexander’s voice was chillingly even as he watched them go. To Andrew and his friends, though, it boomed like thunder in their heads. “I didn’t say walk away-I said get lost!
“And remember your thumbs-one from each of you. Leave them here!”
What?!
Hec and Hunter were somewhat relieved. Their fingers were already gone, so no more pain for them. However, Andrew, who had not acted earlier, still had his thumbs. Then...
It was a choice between death or self-mutilation.
“Don't go too far!”
Andrew stopped dead in his tracks, spinning around to glare at Alexander heatedly. “Everyone has their limits, and there’s always someone tougher! Don’t think the Ledger family is scared of you, our young master...”
In a blur, Alexander closed the distance, his fingers deftly flicking.
With a sharp hiss, the gleaming alloy long knife at Andrew's waist flew out of its sheath. The blade glinted and sliced through the air, neatly severing Andrew’s right thumb.
“Now, you can beat it.”
Alexander pulled back his hand and casually lifted three fingers. As he began to speak, his index finger curled down. “Start the countdown, roll out of here or it’s gover!
“Three.” “Two...
Andrew and Hec Hunter were scared out of their wits, not waiting for Alexander to finish counting. They did not dare stick around or even think about fighting back. They could not even muster a final defiant word and just
collapsed to the ground with a thump.
Particularly Hec and Hunter, who had just managed to retrieve their severed limbs, quickly tossed them aside and tumbled out after Andrew, making a sorry exit from the club’s front door. They were a complete mess.
