Chapter 325: 325: Ignacio Burke’s Intentions_l
“What a terrifying punch…” Micah’s body went limp, almost falling to the ground.
He had no doubt that if this punch landed on his body, even if it didn’t kill him, it would shatter his bones!
“I lost.” At this moment, Ethan Smith voluntarily conceded defeat and walked off the stage.
The audience was in an uproar. They were evenly matched just moments ago, so why did he suddenly concede?
Most of the spectators on the scene did not understand martial arts, so they were not sure who won or lost between the two.
The host coughed, announcing, “Since Coach Smith has admitted defeat, this year’s champion belongs to…”
“Wait!”
Just as the host was about to announce the result, Micah Ortiz suddenly shouted.
He rushed to the stage, grabbed the microphone and said coldly, “I am the one who lost. Ethan, thank you for showing mercy, and thank you for your guidance.”
After leaving these words behind, Micah turned and left.
Although Micah was unwilling to accept defeat, it didn’t mean he couldn’t take it.
He would rather not have such a victory.
Ethan Smith watched Micah Ortiz’s retreating figure, deep in thought.
“So… this year’s champion belongs to the Chuzzle Battle Zone!” the host shouted!
The scene was boiling, with countless people congratulating Commander Wood.
Commander Wood’s face was not looking good, and he even seemed somewhat afraid that Ignacio Burke would blame him.
After Ethan Smith stepped off the stage, Commander Wood broke through the crowd and ran to Ethan’s side.
“Ethan, didn’t I tell you, we could only take second place!” Commander Wood said angrily.
Ethan shrugged, “I already conceded, but the host insisted on giving me the championship. What can I do?”
“You…” Commander Wood was suddenly at a loss for words.
“Well, the Capital City Battle Zone has always been number one, and Micah Ortiz is Ignacio Burke’s personal disciple. By winning against him, you slapped Ignacio Burke’s face!” Commander Wood said with a worried expression.
Ethan didn’t think it was that serious.
He smiled and said, “Since Ignacio Burke is revered as the War God, how can he be so narrow-minded? Commander Wood, I think you’re overthinking.”
Commander Wood sighed, “I hope so.”
This also made Ethan see an issue.
People like Commander Wood might be more concerned about other things.
Everyone seemed to be playing various roles, being polite to their superiors and domineering to their subordinates.
After the competition was over, Commander Wood took Ethan to receive the trophy together.
Although the trophy was not made of any precious material, it represented honor.
No one could have imagined that the Chuzzle Battle Zone would transform from last place to defeating the Capital City Battle Zone.
After leaving the Capital City Battle Zone, everyone was ready to leave.
Just then, Micah Ortiz jogged over with measured steps.
“Greetings, Commander Wood.” Micah saluted Commander Wood first.
Then, Micah turned to Ethan Smith and said, “Our Commander Burke would like to see you.”
“He wants to see me?” Ethan was somewhat surprised.
Micah nodded, “Please.”
Ethan nodded, following Micah to a car.
Ignacio Burke wasn’t sitting in the car but standing in front of it, quietly waiting.
“Greetings, Commander Burke.” Ethan saluted Ignacio Burke.
Ignacio Burke looked at Ethan with admiration and said. “Your Derformance today was really unexpected. May I know who your master is?”
Ethan shook his head, “I don’t have a master.” Ignacio Burke’s eyes lit up and asked, “Really?”
“I wouldn’t dare to deceive.” Ethan replied confidently.
Ignacio Burke nodded slightly and said, “I have a thought, I’d like to take you as my disciple. What’s your opinion?”
As soon as he said this, the people around were shocked!
Ignacio Burke actually wanted to take Ethan Smith as his disciple? What a powerful background!
Once he becomes Ignacio Burke’s disciple, there probably won’t be many people in Pyro who would dare to go against Ethan, right? Even the Blair family would have to think twice!
Ethan fell silent and didn’t speak for a while.
For a moment, everyone was waiting for Ethan’s answer.
After a while, Ethan shook his head and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Commander Burke, but I’m used to my freedom, and I’m afraid I can’t join your school.”
It seemed that Ignacio Burke had anticipated this, as he nodded and said, “All right, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you. But, I have to warn you.” Ethan didn’t say anything, waiting for Ignacio to continue.
“Your talent is indeed good, but if one day I become Pyro’s enemy, I will not hesitate to kill you.”
Ignacio Burke’s voice suddenly became extremely cold.
Even Ethan couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat under the impressive aura.
“Please rest assured, Commander Burke.” Ethan saluted.
Ignacio Burke didn’t say anything else, nodded his head, and returned to the car.
Then, Commander Wood ran over from a distance.
He tentatively asked, “Ethan, did Commander Burke say anything to you?” Ethan shook his head and replied, “He wanted to take me as his disciple.” “What?!” Commander Wood was overjoyed.
He excitedly said, “Ethan, you’re going to make it big! All of Commander Burke’s disciples are influential figures who rule one side of the various battle zones! As long as you become his disciple, your future will be bright!”
Ethan smiled bitterly, “I refused.”
Commander Wood was stunned, then anxiously asked, “Are you crazy? Why would you refuse such a good opportunity?”
Ethan shook his head without explaining.
People have their own aspirations and aspirations cannot be communicated.
If he became Ignacio Burke’s disciple, the benefits would be there, but it would also limit his future actions.
Moreover, Ethan didn’t want to join the battle zone.
Afterward, everyone was planning to return to Chuzzle.
And the news that Ignacio Burke wanted to take Ethan as his disciple spread rapidly.
Blair family.
Dexter Blair was calculating the timing.
Since the Blair family was on good terms with the Taylor family, it was natural that they would know every detail of the Taylor family’s activities.
“This Ethan Smith… actually has the audacity to set foot in the Taylor family’s residence! And even played chess with Mike Taylor!” Dexter’s face turned green with anger!
He couldn’t wait for Mike Taylor to die already! Then he wouldn’t have any more concerns!
“You old man who refuses to die, you only have at most half a year left to live. Once you’re dead, I won’t let Emily off!” Dexter gritted his teeth, his pen crushed in his hand.
At this moment, the steward carefully walked in from the door.
“Mr. Tenny, there’s some bad news.” The steward stood aside and whispered.
Dexter shot him a cold glance, “Speak!”
The steward said solemnly, “I just received news that Ignacio Burke has expressed an interest in taking Ethan Smith as his disciple..”
