Right at that moment, everyone there turned to look at that way out of curiosity.
They had believed that the representative from the Vasteras Holy Land must be more than eager to recruit Austin.
However, to everyone's surprise a conflict arose.
Austin had won the championship of the Martial Arts Tournament, which had made him almost the sole focus and the most dazzling star on the battleground. However, the situation changed unexpectedly and practically too soon.
"Haha, young man. Don't be so proud and snobbish. You should be honored to have received my suggestions. But you acted recklessly and impolitely by offending me.
Howard, bring him hand give him a taste of his own medicine. All judgments should be done according to his attitude later," Steward Gren commanded.
He didn't want to embarrass himself by taking Austin's intelligent magic treasure by force while others were staring. So, he decided to fabricate false accusations against him and charge him. This would let him arrest Austin first and then interrogate him.
"Okay, Steward Gren. Such a crazy teenager should be given a chance for self-reflection before he is taught about anything else." After understanding what the Steward Gren meant, Howard instantly jumped to action and stretched out his right hand in an attempt to seize Austin's hand.
Howard had really formidable strength because he was already at the premium stage of Emperor Realm.
The hand coming towards Austin's body was as terrifying as a collapsing mountain. He felt the space around him close down on him. The air was sucked out completely. There was nothing around him but a vacuum zone.
It seemed that Howard was simply stretching out his hand, but he had actually used scomplicated and unfathomable fighting skills. He had already sealed off Austin's routes of retreat.
Austin was impressed and awed. He immediately understood in his heart that it was awfully stupid of him to underestimate a warrior from the three holy lands.
More than that, he wasn't strong enough to avoid Howard's attack. Therefore, instead of dodging, he decided to confront it bravely as he had no way to escape the upcoming attack. At the moment, he released the Spiritual Pot from his elixir field and threw it at Howard's Soul Sea.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHoward went slightly pale on the face. The spiritual sense was released intensely and quickly from his Soul Sea and then materialized into huge waves. The waves started to lap against the Spiritual Pot.
The spiritual sense of a warrior at the premium stage of Emperor Realm couldn't be dealt with easily.
Boom! Boom! In the wink of an eye, Howard's spiritual sense and Austin's Spiritual Pot collided with each other for a dozen times.
The impacts forced Howard to stop his attacks.
Although he had succeeded in intercepting the Spiritual Spot, he could do nothing to damage it.
"Humph!" Steward Gren knew something went wrong but had no idea of what it was. He had to help Howard in the battle before they were on the losing side. A sea of formidable spiritual sense was instantly let out of his Soul Sea.
Boom! It hit Austin's Spiritual Pot and threw it far away.
Austin felt an unstoppable wave of spiritual sense rushing towards him at great speed. It forced into his Soul Sea and roared at his spiritual soul.
Luckily, Austin's spiritual tree responded in an instant and protected Austin's spiritual soul. Hundreds of leaves fell off the branches of the spiritual tree, floating around Austin's spiritual soul and buffering themselves against the attack.
Boom! Austin's body was thrown high and far, as if it were a kite and the string had been cut off. Blood was gushing out of his mouth, and his face turned pale.
He was still injured by Steward Gren's terrifying spiritual sense in spite of the protection from his spiritual tree. Steward Gren was that strong.
The spiritual sense was the foundation of a warrior's cultivation. A small damage to the spiritual sense meant a gargantuan loss. The injured spiritual sense would hurt Austin much severely than the bodily injuries.
The wind was knocked out of him and he frantically gasped for breath.
Austin was no match against this formidable and powerful Steward Gren.
"Humph. Not bad in terms of your spiritual sense. That is impressive.
Howard, arrest him and take him away right now," Steward Gren shouted an order. However, in spite of what he just said, he was actually impressed by Austin's skills and strength in reality. It seemed that Austin's spiritual sense hadn't been severely hurt in spite of the blood now dripping down the corners of his mouth.
"Yes, sir," Howard replied. Then, he employed his bodily movement skill and appeared behind Austin at the speed of lightning. The next moment, his hand was already on Austin's shoulder strongly gripping it.
Confronting a warrior at the >remium stage of Emperor Realm, Austin couldn't put up a fight or ever lefend himself. He found all his vita energy force blocked, and there was nothing he could use to fight with. "Austin!" "Austin! What's happening? I don't get it." Two clear voices were audible at the very moment.
At this moment, two beautiful figures were moving towards Austin quickly.
They were Caroline and Belle, totally unaware of this emergency that had happened. Howard's sudden attack alerted them to rush towards Austin and cto his aid.
"Belle, do not get into this. Just stay away," the middle-aged nun from the Jade Sect yelled at Belle. She grabbed at Belle with all strength and didn't let her go.
Belle struggled in vain with the powerful and experienced nun. She couldn't even move a step because the nun's grip was so strong.
Only Caroline managed to rush forward and stand before Howard.
"What has Austin done to have him attacked and arrested? Who gave you the right to do such a barbaric thing?" she snapped in uncontrollable rage.
Austin's capture enraged and worried her. She couldn't afford to have Austin taken away from her at any cost.
"Caroline, run. You're no match for them. Please run away, now!" Austin shouted desperately. The strength gap between Caroline and Howard had already put his girl in great danger, which was intolerable for him.
Caroline ignored Austin's protest and warning. She had nothing but Austin, her lover and she was not ready to let him go. She couldn't and wouldn't escape without him at any cost.
Caroline's beauty almost took Howard's breath away. He couldn't look away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuch a beautiful girl just appeared before him out of blue. He could not believe his eyes.
At that moment, Howard just elcouldn't remove his greedy eyes from Caroline's perfectly shaped body. He seemed to be utterly bewitched by the queen of the evil shadow race. He was enthralled by the otherworldly beauty. "I don't understand. How could such a worthless piece of shit have such a beauty to care about him? There has to be smajor mix-up here.
Only I, Howard, deserve her love. If anyone will have her, it'll be me," he murmured to himself darkly.
His eyes were green with envy. Caroline's concerned expression told him that she really cared about Austin.
"Let go of him now!" Caroline took out her fan and launched her attacks while Howard still gaped at her greedily.
A sea of fire was produced immediately.
Flames with black smoke were rushing towards Howard.
"You won't get off the hooks easily, woman.
Don't you dare put a finger at our warriors from the Vasteras Holy Land. Howard, arrest the mad woman immediately." Steward Gren snapped furiously.
"Consider it done, Steward Gren," Howard replied excitedly like a wild man.
Actually, he was overjoyed by Steward Green's order of arrest. By taking her to the Vasteras Holy Land, he would have a greater chance of looking at her and have his desires fulfilled. "Young lady, please cwith us. I promise that no harm will cto you.
Soon, you'll know that this stupid guy does not deserve anything from you," said Howard.
With a swish of his right hand, he released his intense vital energy force, and put out the flames and black smoke completely.
His superiority in both power and strength allowed him to neutralize Caroline's attack easily. The girl was meek compared to him. Then, he stretched out his left hand. With an enormous palm emitting formidable pressure of vital energy force, he tried to seize Caroline.
"You bastard! Stop! You touch her and you will be dead," Austin shouted desperately and furiously.
