Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 20

At this very moment, Nicholas and the others were reminded of the death of Bob, the butler of the Chu Clan. When they arrived at Darren's courtyard that day, Bob had already been dead. Evan and the servants claimed that it was Darren who killed him.

Bob was an experienced cultivator, although he was not a talented one. But Darren could kill such a strong cultivator, which was hard evidence of his powerful cultivation base.

When Nicholas thought of that, he swallowed in fear. The teenager in front of him had changed. Darren was not the former loser that everyone had thought him to be. Nicholas now felt like prey at the mercy of his predator.

"Darren, you'd better keep your word. You said that you would challenge all three of us. Don't change your mind now!"

Nicholas walked forward and exchanged glances with the other two. He wanted to ensure that they would fight with him.

In the next instant, their vital energies surged, ready to work together. All three people targeted their killing intent at Darren.

"Shame on you! You three are shameless! How can you work together to fight against one? It's so unfair for Mr. Darren!"

"Boo! The three so-called geniuses of our Chu Clan. Shame on you! Only Mr. Darren is our family's true genius, the top talent."

Many of the members of the Chu Clan scorned Nicholas and the other two.

Darren, who had been standing with his hands crossed behind his back, said, "And I also remember that someone claimed to be able to defeat me with only one attack. Otherwise, he will eat shit. Well, it's time for him to fulfill his promise."

Leo's face darkened when he heard Darren. He felt so embarrassed that he wished the earth would open and swallow him.

"It's all bullshit! Winner takes all! Nicholas, let's go!" Leo let go of his pride and dignity. Defeating Darren was the only thing on his mind.

Leo rushed forward again and stretched his fists. His strong fists moved like lightning as they darted through the sky and headed straight for Darren.

Darren, however, stayed motionless. As a cultivator with the talent at level one of the Black Degree, his senses were much acuter than that of inferior cultivators. He could clearly see Leo's movements.

'Well, his right fist is a distraction. But his left fist is aimed at my throat. Nice try, Leo!' Darren knew Leo's every move, including the flaws in his martial arts skill, of course.

"Big deal."

Darren aimed a kick at Leo and successfully defended against his attack. Simultaneously, Darren launched a strike with his right hand, which was aimed at Leo's right shoulder.

"Bang!"

The sound of the fighting echoed in the air. Leo retreated a few meters after Darren's attack, and his face went deathly pale.

When Leo's father saw this scene, his face turned grim. He could not believe that Darren had triumphed over his son with only one attack.

The Elders were awestruck to see that as well. They found it hard to believe that Darren's cultivation base was at the peak of the eighth stage of the Primary Realm. Obviously, he was an invincible cultivator among the ones at the eighth stage.

But martial arts skill was also a vital part of someone's cultivation base.

So, Nicholas and Blake summoned the top martial arts skills they had learned at once before rushing toward Darren.

A sneer cracked Darren's lips. In the Barren Wasteland, he had killed Marvin single-handedly. Marvin, the bloodthirsty and murderous hustler, was more experienced at fighting than Nicholas and Blake.

Darren remained unshakable now that he was facing their attacks. In a split second, he delivered his attacks on his enemies.

The three men burst into an intensive fight, and the strong force between them compelled the audience around them to step back.

"Oh my! Mr. Darren is freakishly strong! He has a big advantage over them, even though his opponents are working together."

Leo, after a break, joined Nicholas and Blake as well.

Darren felt a little challenged now that he was fighting the three together, especially Nicholas as his cultivation base was much higher than the other two.

Their vital energy, targeting Darren, burst out at the same time. The force of the impact between the three and Darren was so tremendous that it compelled both sides to step back.

"This bastard is fucking strong!"

Nicholas, Blake, and Leo were stunned by Darren's cultivation base. None of them could believe that even though they had worked together against Darren, the fight ended in a tie. That was humiliating for them.

"All right! We have the winner now! The game is over," said the guard of the Martial Skill Library, who had observed the fight for a while.

"What? Is the game over? So who's the winner?"

"They are all at the eighth stage of the Primary Realm. Darren fought against three people alone, but the match ended in a draw. It is obvious who the winner is," said the guard of the Martial Skill Library, airily.

"What? He wins? No! We can't accept such a result!" None of the three were convinced by the elder.

They planned to consume Darren's energy in further rounds. One thing would have led to another, and they would have gained an advantage over Darren in terms of vital energy eventually. Then, they would only need one strike to defeat Darren.

The guard of the Martial Skill Library, knew what they had planned, which was why he had come to stop the fight.

Then the elder walked toward Darren and whispered to him, "Go now, kid! You need to rest. Don't let them bother you."

After Darren thanked the elder, he turned to Nicholas and the other two and said, "Since you can't accept such a result, my fist will discuss this issue with you. I will deal with all three of you, once and for all, until you all admit defeat. Come on, three assholes! All together!"

What an arrogant declaration!

Nicholas and the other two were thrilled to hear that Darren wanted to continue the fight, but his words infuriated them to the core.

"Once and for all? All three? Mr. Darren overestimates his abilities this time."

"That's hard to say. Mr. Darren has made lots of things possible. Didn't you notice that? Everything he has said today has come true in the end."

"Yeah! I agree with you. Mr. Darren has been hiding his true strength for unknown reasons. He's a real master, a supreme master. Way to go, Mr. Darren!"
