At the thought of this, Nori’s image in Lucas’s heart suddenly became blurred.

Just as Lucas was still in a daze, he heard Tony’s voice.
Tony’s gaze was slightly lowered as he said, “The Lawrence family’s reputation is indeed going to be
tarnished if this matter spreads out. However, this marriage will be beneficial for the long-term
development of our families. I believe you can think of a plan that can satisfy both of us.”
James forced a smile and answered, “It’s not easy to think of a plan that can satisfy both of the parties.
Tony, you know that my father decided on Jessica’s marriage back then. He’s now in seclusion to break
through the peak of the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm. However, I’ve received news that
he’ll be out smoothly in a few days.”
Although James’s words might seem unintentional, Tony’s body slightly trembled when he heard them,
and there was a shrewd light flashing deep in his eyes. As for James, he did not appear to have
noticed Tony’s peculiarity, and he continued, “Well if he comes out and hears that his sons rebelled
against his wish, and more so let the Lawrence family be burdened with the infamy of having their
daughter marrying two men… Well, we’ll surely have a bitter pill to take. However…”
At that moment, James suddenly changed his tone, “I’m also aware that Harold is also the Yates
family’s star genius in recent years. If Jessica marries him, it will surely be beneficial for our families’
future development. Hence, I’m in a tough spot. Tony, why don’t you help me think of a way to convince
my father?”
Tony thought James would change the subject by making a decision, yet in the end, he still pushed the
problem to him. This caused Tony to feel irritated. Nonetheless, Tony was more concerned that George
would be out soon, and he was going to break through his current stage successfully!
This implied that the Lawrence family would have a peak second-stage of the Pulse Control Realm’s
cultivator!
Even though George was still a second-stage cultivator, there was a different concept between a mid-
second stage and a peak-second stage. A peak-second stage could easily defeat five mid-second
stage cultivators.
Tony got nervous. He needed to hurry back to inform the seniors of the Yates family. However, Tony
was unwilling to leave just like that as it would embarrass the Yates family.
Then, Tony casually cast a glance at Keith.
Keith did not say anything and nodded. Next, he approached James and whispered, “James, I have a
plan…”
“Oh? Let’s hear it.” James appeared interested.
Keith analyzed the situation and suggested, “James, I think the best way is to let Harold and Moana
have a showdown. Jessica has a Pure Jade Physique, and her future is bright as she can cultivate fast.
Hence, her future husband must be on par with her too. What do you think about that, James?”
Moana
Casper
“Hmm. You have a point, so do continue.” James nodded.
Tony quietly gave a thumbs up.
Harold was Tony’s junior, so Tony knew Harold’s strength better than others. If Harold were to have a
showdown with someone on the same stage, Tony had absolute confidence in Harold that he would
win.
Standing far away from them, Nori sneered when he heard their conversation.

Keith was still elaborating on his reasoning, “If Harold and Moana have a showdown, the loser will have
to quit as his skills are inferior. I bet he won’t disagree with it either. If Moana loses to Harold, we will
have an excellent explanation to father when he is out. James, what do you think?”

James turned to Tony and asked, “Tony, what do you say?”
Tony was secretly overjoyed. Nonetheless, he still put on an act and pondered for a moment before
nodding and calling out, “Harold…”
“I’m here.” Then, behind Tony, a teenager around the age of sixteen walked out.
The young man was tall with a square jawline, and he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, showing off
his muscular arms. When he appeared from behind Tony, he looked at Nori and introduced himself,
“I’m Harold Yates of the Yates family, and I’m currently at the third stage of the True Martial Realm. I
hope Moana, as a senior, can teach me a few tricks.”

“I think you’re the old one here.” Nori snorted. Then, he turned to James and said, “I have no
objection.”

Harold’s expression changed, and a harsh light flashed in his eyes. “It seems that you’re confident with
yourself, Moana. Nonetheless, I’ m sure of myself too. Be careful of my kicks and punches. Otherwise,
you might have to leave the Lawrence Manor with broken limbs.”
Moana

“The previous person who wanted to break my jaw is still lying there.” Nori sighed and pointed at
Steward Lawrence, who was still convulsing not far away from them.
Nori
Caspian
After that, he gave a pitiful look at Harold and added, “However, you’re crueler than him as you want to
break my limbs.”
Nori sounded languid, but those who heard it felt a chill running down their spines, and some even
could not help but gasp.
Nori
Caspian
“Alright, I won’t say much about the rules. Just remember not to overdo it and be amiable.” Then,
James looked at Frank, “Moana, even though your grandfather has an agreement with my Lawrence
family and your father and I are also long-time friends, you broke the gate to my manor today. It’s fine if
you win, but if you lose… Well, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Frank,

“He won’t have a chance to win.” Harold laughed menacingly.
“Don’t worry about it, Uncle James. Even if I lose, I’ll surely break Harold’s limbs first.” Nori nodded,
and he did not even spare a glance at Harold.
Nori
Caspian
Nori’s attitude instantly made Harold gritted his teeth in anger.
Nori
Caspian
“Alright, let’s head over to the gymnasium.” James stared at Nori for a moment, turned around, and left.
Nori
Caspian
Under James’s lead, everyone soon arrived at the Lawrence Manor’s gymnasium. The spectators were
standing at one side of the gymnasium, whereas Nori and Harold were in the middle area.

At that moment, the most anxious people among the spectators were none other than Lucas and
Fabian. They knew well that if Nori won, everything would be alright. However, if he lost, their plans
would have been exposed, and their punishment would be hundreds of times more severe than before
as it was not just a failure of completing their task.
Nori
Caspian
At the thought of that, Lucas and Fabian felt their blood run cold, and they could only silently pray for
things to go their way.
In the gymnasium, Harold faced Nori and showed an evil smile. Then, he whispered so that only Nori
could hear him. “Moana, I don’t know if the Yates family deliberately arranged for your appearance.
But, I’m sure that this will be the last day of your life!”

Nori shook his head. “You said you’re going to break my limbs before this, and now you’re sure that I’m
going to die? Don’t you know that it‘s only going to make things worse for you?”
Nori
Caspian
“B*stard!” Harold cursed.
It was evident from Nori’s passive attitude that he did not care about Harold at all.
Nori
Caspian
“I’ll show you why I, Harold Yates, is known as Evergreen Town’s little genius!” Harold spoke through
gritted teeth.
Then, he exerted all his strength, and in an instant, all his muscles were making scary twisting sounds.
