Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2007

“Fine. However, you’ll owe me one, and I can ask for your help whenever necessary! Deal?” replied Gerald.

Though she was slightly surprised to hear that, Yudell had a feeling that it was alright making such a deal with

Gerald. With that in mind, after a brief pause, Yudell replied, “…Deal!” With the agreement made, Yudell then left

Gerald’s room…

Fast forward to morning, Yalinda and Gerald returned to the arena. While everything else remained mostly the

same, an old man was now the representative of the Thundering Cloud Sect.

Regardless, it was finally time for Yalinda to enter the ring today…

Truth be told, she had only ever participated in small competitions before this. In other words, this was her first time

participating in such a major competition, which explained why she was feeling so anxious right now…

Not long after, Zenon Lightning stepped forth before announcing, “Good day to all! It’s the second day of the

competition between cultivators, and the first match will be between Yalinda Juans, the representative of the Juans

Delivery House, and Levi Homewood, the eldest son of an aristocratic sword family! Please prepare yourselves!”

Hearing that, both Yalinda and Levi walked to the center of the arena, staring intently at each other throughout the

process…

Once they were standing right in front of each other, Levi smiled subtly as he said, “Well, well, who’d have thought

we’d be going against each other today!”

Chuckling in response, Yalinda then replied, “Indeed! I hope you’ll go easy on me today, Mr. Homewood! After all,

I’ve heard countless tales of your swordsmanship! While I’m glad to be able to widen my horizons through our

upcoming duel, let’s try not to overdo it, alright?” As Yalinda had said, this was just a martial arts competition, and

such competitions were usually held to deepen bonds between the challengers. Killing was naturally prohibited, so

defeating the opponent was usually good enough.

“But of course, Miss Juans!” replied Levi.

Since both of them came from rich and powerful families in Shontell, Yalinda believed that Levi was a nice person.

At the very least, he probably wouldn’t do anything too despicable…

Regardless, now that they had agreed on that, both of them drew their weapons…

While Yalinda was wielding a long, black whip, Levi had a longsword—that was manufactured by his family—in hand.

Being an aristocratic family in Shontell, not only were the Homewoods well known for manufacturing excellent

swords, but they were also famed for their swordplay. Time and again, the Homewoods’ swordsmanship had

evolved for the better, and few were able to win against them. Due to that, they received fewer and fewer

challengers by the year.

With that in mind, not many people had been able to witness the Homewoods’ true sword-fighting capabilities in

recent years, which explained why Yalinda was feeling so honored to be able to duel against the eldest son of the

Homewood family today. Even if she did end up losing, she’d still be left satisfied…

Whatever the case was, after staring at each other for a bit longer, the duo then rushed forward simultaneously!

Taking the initiative to strike, Yalinda lashed her whip, creating thunderous sounds that almost made it feel like the

air was getting shattered into pieces…!

While that was certainly impressive, Levi wasn’t about to let her take all the action. With a swift slash of his sword,

the sheer power of it caused Yalinda’s whip to get flung backward!
