Watching the black-clothed young man with his hands behind his back, the entire field calmed down again.
On the tall platform, John Collin's smile slowly widened before finally, he could not help but laugh loudly.
Hearing the carefree laughter of John Collin, the three old men looked at each other and sighed. However, they did not try to do anything else to Edward. The potential displayed by Edward gave them a sense of defeat. The 3 stages in 11 months was something that would shock anyone, their sons and grandchildren, would never have expected to have that move.
Harold let out a rough sigh, starting this second. With the talent Edward showed, he would no longer be able to shake John Collin's position in the chair of the clan leader. Nor would he think of revoking the status of Edward's clan heir.
In the future, with Edward's speed of training. He would become an important person in the Jia Empire.
With a light heart, John Collin clapped his hands as he announced."Ricard's nephew has lost. Hopefully you will continue to train hard!."
On the training field, Ricard's pale face heard the announcement and his head drooped in disappointment. Seeing the black-clothed youth not far from him, he remembered about how he had insulted the person, calling him “cacat” in the past even planning to kill him. Now, that “cacat” is quite close to the top of the clan and far above it. This extreme difference made Ricard recall the words he had heard in the hall a few months earlier."Don't see that the world you live in right now is the limit of the universe, it's vast and there are even thousands of civilizations out there. And among that civilization, there are many stories of a poor man becoming rich, a coward becoming the head of the world. Many powerful experts were born disabled yet became the strongest figures in the future. So, don't look at me low right now. When that time came. You'll regret your decision today."
Shaking his head with a bitter smile, Ricard with great difficulty. Slightly bowing to Edward, Ricard's voice had lost all arrogance from before."Young Master Edward, you won. Congratulations on your recovery!."
Nodding, Edward's gaze slowly swept across the entire training field and those who met his dark eye bead all shifted their gazes with nervousness and uneasiness.
His gaze paused on Mindy who was staring at him, Edward turned his face to face the non-graduation clan disciple and asked with a smile."Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me?."
Watching Edward, the clan disciple who wanted to challenge Edward before Ricard was defeated shut their mouths and looked up at the sky as if Edward's words had nothing to do with them. None of them would ascend and become the second challenger.
Witnessing the childish act of pretending to be a fool, Edward lightly shrugged and walked back.
Seeing Edward sitting beside her, Violet smiled as she looked at the field. Taking a strand of her hair and twisting it, she whispered."Edward's brother Violet doesn't know how Edward's brother does all that. But now Violet knows that Violet does not know Edward's brother very well and with Edward's brother's strength now, there will be no mention of Edward's brother being paralyzed. They'll respect Edward's brother."
"Whether it was in the past or in the present, I wouldn't care about anyone else's view of me" Edward said expressionlessly
"Then Edward's brother had grown up!."Violet playfully blinked her eyes.
"Not more mature than you. Sometimes I feel as if there's a thousand-year-old monster hiding inside you!."Called an adult by a girl, Edward could not help but laugh. Rubbing Violet's head gently, she smiled.
Hearing that, Violet gave Edward evil eyes and her delicate face showed an expression of reprimand. No matter how cheerful the girl was, no one liked to be called an old monster.
Violet's reprimanding expression was so beautiful that it attracted the gazes of the young men around her and even the gazes of some girls!
"That boy, was too arrogant .."Jordan, like the others, was also attracted to Violet's reprimanded expression, but seeing the intimate chatter between Violet and Edward, an envious fire burned within her. His jealousy covered up his reasoning as he thought that only he could match Violet within the entire clan but thinking back, he realized that no matter what he did, Viopet rarely smiled. On the other hand, Edward, who was “cacat”, could always make Violet laugh. The difference between them made Jordan smash his teeth out of anger.
"No need to worry, he can be happy now but later...Hehe. No one knows."Seeing the anger on Jordan's face, Jack at the side smiled as he reminded him of their plan.
"Edward, I'll let you be arrogant for now but when the Coming of Age Ceremony comes, I'll make you look for your teeth falling in front of Violet."Clenching his hands, Jordan gave Edward a cold look.
Although Jordan was also surprised at the speed of Edward's training in the past 11 months, he could not change his haughty ways as he usually did. Moreover, Jordan, being the only male within the entire clan other than Jack who was almost on par with Violet, felt a sense of danger from Edward's sudden training speed.
While thinking of his evil thoughts, the corner of Jordan's mouth curved into an evil grin. Even if Edward was at the peak stage of body formation, Jordan was still confident with his 8 Late Stage of Body Building. In view of from any angle, each Stage at the Body Forming level after the Peak Stage had a huge difference between them!
Chatting in a low voice with Violet, Edward's aimless gaze gazed around the side of the training field and caught the evil grin on Jordan and Jack's faces. Thinking for a moment, Edward realized what Jordan and Jack's smile meant.
Edward involuntarily smiled to himself, thinking."A person who can't even cover up his emotions can't be a risk at all."

After Ricard lost to Edward, no one else dared to challenge the seated Edward and the clan disciples who did not pass set their sights on everyone else. But after several rounds of challenges, only two people, relying on luck and the familiar Fighter Technique, were able to defeat their opponents and qualify for the Advanced Age Ceremony.
Watching the slowly calming practice field, the smiling John Collin stood up and announced the results along with some notices about the Advanced Age Ceremony next month.
Slowly standing up, Edward smiled towards the happy John Collin on stage while John Collin did not hesitate to give his quality son a thumbs up.
Right after cleaning his clothes, it detected a fragrant aroma.
Curling his brows slightly, Edward raised his head to look at Mindy Collin standing in front of him and asked."Do you need anything?."
Seeing the impatience and coldness on Edward's face, Mindy's courage faltered as he forced a smile and said."Brother Edward...Congratulations!."
"Thank you."Slightly nodding, Edward glanced at Violet beside him.
"Sister Edward, my father will personally teach the High Emperor Level Combat Techniques at the Combat Master Hall tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?."Mindy smiled and the combination of female charm and the agility of the young girl created a turmoil inside that was irresistible.
Hearing that, Edward's eyebrows slightly raised.
Just as Edward was about to find an excuse to reject Mindy, a pale white arm slipped and embraced with his arm.
Surprised, Edward turned to find the smiling Violet.
"Truly sorry Senior Brother Mindy, Violet has already invited Big Brother Edward to accompany me tomorrow to visit Javes City and so she can't go with Senior Brother Mindy to the Combat Techniques Hall.".A stunned look, Violet held onto Edward's arm while a hint of apology lingered on her delicate face.
