In other words, the Martial Arts Association had a certain prestige among major families, and no one wanted to tear their faces apart with them.
Of course, this excluded the top families in Capital City.
Time flew by quickly.
Soon, the day of the divine medicine’s emergence arrived.
On this day, the sky over White City was filled with layers of auspicious clouds.
The clouds were faintly purple, and although their brightness was not intense, they were still visible to the naked eye.
Such a scene naturally attracted countless gazes.
Whether it was ordinary people or martial artists coveting the divine medicine, everyone looked up at the sky.
“This is a sign of great fortune!” “Heaven is blessing our White City!”
“This year, I will definitely make a fortune!”
Many people knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the sky, showing unparalleled respect.
And the martial artists were even more excited!
This was the sign of the divine medicine’s emergence!
“It is said that the thousand-year divine medicine can cause some visions of heaven and earth. Seeing it today, it is indeed as expected.” A martial artist murmured in a low voice.
They didn’t dare to waste time and immediately rushed towards the direction where the divine medicine was born.
The location of the divine medicine’s emergence was deep in the mountains. Usually, this place had few human inhabitants, but the trees grew lush and verdant.
Under the nourishment of the divine medicine, various fierce beasts also gathered and roamed in this area.
Today, however, this mountain area was filled with luxury cars.
The license plates came from various provinces and cities, and at a glance, there were at least a hundred people waiting here.
“Edward Green, remember to watch the herbs for me,” Ethan Smith said before leaving, repeatedly reminding Edward Green.
Edward Green was getting a bit impatient and waved his hand, saying, “Alright, I got it, you hurry up and go.”
Conrad Schroeder, who was beside them, was somewhat worried.
After weighing the pros and cons, he eventually advised, “Mr. Smith, are you really going to go? Though the divine medicine is valuable, your life is more important…”
Ethan Smith glanced at Conrad Schroeder and smiled faintly, “If you’re afraid, you don’t have to go.”
Conrad Schroeder forced a bitter smile, “I’m not afraid, I… sigh, never mind.” Seeing Ethan Smith’s stubbornness, Conrad Schroeder didn’t know what else to say.
As the car sped, they quickly arrived at the entrance to the mountains.
Looking at the crowd of people, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but sigh, “As expected of the thousand-year divine medicine, usually not even a single martial artist can be seen here, but today they appeared like bamboo shoots after rain.”
After speaking, Ethan Smith took a deep breath.
“Even the air is sweet, truly worthy of being called divine medicine.” Ethan Smith wore a face of enjoyment.
Conrad Schroeder didn’t share Ethan Smith’s leisurely mood. He immediately released his divine sense and glanced around.
Quickly, Conrad Schroeder’s face sank.
Because he found that each of these people had extraordinary strength – there were at least a dozen Grandmasters, and countless Masters! The strongest even reached the realm of a Fourth Rank Grandmaster!
“We might be in trouble today, Mr. Smith. We’d better keep a low profile.” Conrad Schroeder reminded in a low voice.
“Huh? King of Chuzzle Ethan Smith is here too?” Conrad Schroeder had just finished his words when someone shouted in the distance.
With just one shout, countless gazes were attracted to their direction.
Almost everyone cast sidelong glances at Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith couldn’t help but feel a headache.
This title had really brought him a lot of trouble.This did not match Ethan Smith’s low-key personality.
“So he’s the King of Chuzzle? It’s rare to see someone so young being called a king.”
“Yeah, I heard that Ignacio Burke used to have such a title back in the day.”
“Haha, comparing him with Ignacio Burke is a bit of an exaggeration. Ignacio Burke is a once-in-a-century genius.”
Ethan Smith did not want to reveal his strength too quickly, as that would certainly bring unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, he deliberately restrained his aura, appearing no different from an ordinary Inner Strength Master at a glance.
At this moment, several young people approached Ethan Smith from a distance.
Each of them looked to be in their twenties.
Among them were three men and one woman.
The men all had an extraordinary bearing, while the woman was extremely enchanting and possessed the potential to captivate any man’s heart.
“Is that woman the so-called number one beauty in the River North Region, Evelyn Norton?”
“They say no man can resist Evelyn Norton’s charm. Seeing her today, the reputation is indeed well deserved!”
“Tsk tsk, that figure really makes one unable to control themselves.”
Everyone gazed at the woman, swallowing their saliva.
“The Four Great Geniuses of River North? They’ve actually come too?” Upon seeing these four people, Conrad Schroeder furrowed his brows.
“Oh? The Four Great Geniuses of River North?” Ethan Smith seemed rather interested in this title.
Conrad Schroeder nodded and said, “These four are the most gifted martial artists in the River North Region in recent years, and their backing from powerful families is not to be underestimated.”
After that, Conrad Schroeder pointed at the leading young man and said, “This is Reginald Tucker. He entered the Grandmasters Realm three years ago.”
Conrad Schroeder then pointed at the enchanting woman and said, “Among the four, this woman named Evelyn Norton is the most dangerous. It is said that she doesn’t have much of a background, but her strength is beyond imagination.”
Ethan Smith silently nodded and subconsciously glanced at Evelyn Norton twice.
It has to be said, Evelyn Norton’s appearance was indeed quite enticing, with a perfect figure, and any excess fat nowhere to be found.
However, what surprised Ethan Smith the most was that Evelyn Norton possessed a natural charm that was hard to resist.
“Strange.” Ethan Smith stroked his chin.
“Evelyn Norton’s aura…seems a bit strange.”
At that moment, the group of people had already reached Ethan Smith’s side.
“Are you Ethan Smith?” Reginald Tucker was the first to speak.
Ethan Smith slightly nodded, as a form of greeting.
“King of Chuzzle, that’s a big title! I just don’t know if you have the real skills to back it up!” A burly young man beside Reginald Tucker coldly snorted.
“Since he is called the King of Chuzzle, his strength must be extraordinary. Compared with Mr. Smith here, our Four Great Geniuses titles immediately lose their luster.” Reginald Tucker said indifferently.
“Hehe, is that so? I, Blaine Pitts, would really like to see for myself!” The burly man clenched his fist and spoke coldly.
The atmosphere instantly became tense upon their first meeting, which made Conrad Schroeder feel somewhat troubled.
Ethan Smith, on the other hand, remained calm, as if he had expected this all along.
“Ah, Mr. Smith, don’t be angry. Blaine Pitts is considered a genius, and he hasn’t achieved the title of king; his dissatisfaction is understandable. But I suppose… Mr. Smith’s strength must be above the four of us.” Reginald Tucker pretended to be remorseful as he spoke.
Reginald’s words seemed to be mediating the situation, but in reality, he was deliberately intensifying the conflict between the two.
In other words, Reginald wanted to use Blaine Pitts to test Ethan Smith. As expected, as soon as his words were spoken, Blaine Pitts became even more indignant.
He clenched his fist and said, “Ethan Smith, do you dare to have a friendly competition with me? Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you!”
Ethan Smith remained silent for a moment, not speaking for a while.
“Blaine, after all, Ethan Smith is the King of Chuzzle. How could he casually make a move?” Seeing that Ethan Smith remained quiet, Reginald Tucker continued to add fuel to the fire.
Hearing this, Blaine Pitts could no longer contain himself.
He clenched his fists and said, “King of Chuzzle, is that so? I would like to see just how capable this King of Chuzzle is!”
After saying this, Blaine Pitts let out an angry roar, strode forward, and threw a punch toward Ethan Smith!
