Chapter 750 Old Acquaintances

Some of the youngsters were stunned by Lyanna’s beauty and could not stop staring at her. They were

chided by their family elders for doing that; some had even gotten a beating for that.

Staring at Jared’s female companion was as good as courting death.

Jared had also spotted some familiar faces among the crowd, such as Luke and his son, Jesse, from the

Wagner family from Summerbank of Jazona. There was also Lionel, the head of Extreme Fist Gym.

Standing behind Lionel were his disciples Landon and Fred, whom Jared had seen at Tayhaven Town

previously. Spencer, the chief of Herb Palace was also present.

As those people were long-time acquaintances of Jared, they approached him to catch up with him at

once. However, with their statuses, Jesse, Landon, and Fred were not qualified to talk to Jared. As such,

those three young men could only stand quietly by the side.

The three youngsters were filled with envy as they watched on. Even though they were of similar ages as

Jared, they were miles away in terms of statuses and abilities as compared to the man.

“One day, Mr. Chance would definitely become the brightest star in the martial arts world…” Jesse

commented in admiration.

This time, neither Landon nor Fred refuted his words.

Jared was still a Grandmaster at the previous martial arts meet. Even at that time, he already seemed

extremely out of reach. However, at present, Jared had already progressed to a stage where he could

even defeat a Martial Arts Grandmaster. It simply felt like a miracle!

“Jesse…”

After exchanging a few words with his acquaintances from the martial arts world, Jared noticed Jesse,

who was standing behind, and he called out to him.

“Mr. Chance…”

Jesse, feeling excited that Jared had greeted him first, stepped forward immediately.

It was indeed a great honor to be able to speak with the man at such a time.

In the past, Tommy was merely a little-known leader of a gang in Horington and was a nobody. However,

as he stood behind Jared that day, many heads of martial arts families were seen trying to strike up a

conversation with him.

“Mr. Chance…”

Landon and Fred quickly rushed forward to greet Jared as well.

However, the two men had extremely awkward expressions on their faces, remembering how they had

looked down on Jared at the previous martial arts meet, especially Fred. He had even attacked Jared

during that time. At the recollection of that scene, Fred could feel his cheeks heating up in shame.

Jared nodded at the two men and acknowledged them with a slight smile. After that, he turned toward

Jesse and patted the man’s shoulder before saying, “Dude, it seems like your skills have gotten a lot

better…”

Jesse chuckled and replied, “It’s all because of the pointers you gave me, Mr. Chance. However, as

compared to your skills, my improvement is nothing at all…”

“Work hard. There are no shortcuts when it comes to practicing martial arts. It is easy for us to go down

the wrong path if we are too impatient…”

As Jared was not a martial artist, the progress of his cultivation depended entirely on techniques and the

resources available to him. If he had ample spiritual energy, his progress would be even faster.

However, it was not the same for martial artists, who had to rely entirely on hard work with no shortcuts

available to them. Even though using pills could aid in their cultivation, being diligent in their practice was

of utmost importance. If they tried to take any shortcuts, they would probably end up like Carlos, who had

landed himself in a miserable state after practicing sorcery and black magic.

“Mr. Chance, I really appreciate your guidance!” Jesse said sincerely.

“Shall we carry on the conversation inside? Mr. Chance, let’s go in now…”

After Spencer made that suggestion, everyone followed closely behind Jared as they made their way into

the hotel.

As it was a buffet banquet, everyone started eating after entering the hotel and did not talk to Jared

about the Martial Alliance. After all, the man had been on the road the entire day, and it did not seem

appropriate to start discussing work immediately upon his arrival.

It was a welcome banquet, specially organized to celebrate the arrival of Jared. As the man would be

staying for some time, they could talk about the Martial Alliance after that. Guests who were present at

the banquet were all members of the martial arts world, and ordinary people would not have the right to

attend.
