Chapter 951 - 951 487 The Terrible Man (4300)_2

Chapter 951: 487 The Terrible Man (4300)_2 Chapter 951: 487 The Terrible Man (4300)_2 That was the Seven-star Life Secret Technique.

Jett of the Seven Killers wasn’t handsome, but had a ferocious, rugged face, with short, stiff hair that resembled steel needles. His body exuded the odd smell of medicinal herbs.

In the brightly lit hall of Cafu Hall, everyone welcomed him.

However, Jett of the Seven Killers spoke sternly, “Your offer isn’t enough. You need to double it before I agree to your request. Also, I have some other conditions to add…”

At these words, a wave of shock swept over the room.

The crowd was buzzing with discussions, appearing dissatisfied. After all, the promise already made was generous enough, and doubling it was akin to the entire foundation of a strong second-tier Sect. The cost, spread among the various schools of the Li Empire’s Secret Martial Arts World, would be painfully felt.

Sitting at the head of the meeting table, Jett looked at them with cold eyes, harboring not the slightest thought of backing down. His intention was to make a big score; the Southern Jungle was rather secluded and impoverished, lacking many desirable things. Jett had long wanted to bring his Sect to the affluent and wealthy Eastern Martial World to take root.

Even settling in the Northern Mystery Martial World would do. Only the Eastern and Western regions of the Li Empire were falling behind in development, where materials needed by many schools were extremely scarce, and even young blood was rare and often of poorer talent.

Jett of the Seven Killers planned to take this opportunity to relocate his entire school to the Eastern Martial World, which was one of the “other conditions” he mentioned. The Secret Martial Arts World of the Li Empire was quite exclusive, based on geography. The emergence of a new Secret Martial Arts school meant parting with some benefits, something the existing factions found unacceptable.

Typically, if a school from another Secret Martial Arts World wanted to establish itself there, it might be subjected to non-stop challenges and ostracism from schools of not just one county but several nearby ones. Before long, they would not be able to hold out and would have to shamefully return home, or simply dissolve into a master-disciple lineage.

And fail to maintain their original signboard and school.

To gain a foothold in the Eastern Martial World, one needed the support and approval of the local schools. Undoubtedly, the current International Exchange Meeting was a perfect opportunity. As long as Jett could face Whale King Arlington and hold out for a while without losing too badly… and on this point, he was still confident. He definitely wouldn’t be able to win, but to hold on for a few moves was possible.

The collection of all his teacher’s life’s work, the Seven-star Life Secret Technique, had been cultivated by Jett to the five-star level. That is, he had used exotic medicinal herbs and training methods to artificially create five tumor-like Dantians within his body, each tumor corresponding to a star and one of the realms of destiny. When mortally wounded, if he detonated one, he would rebound and recover from severe injuries.

In other words, Jett had the chance to come back from serious injuries five times. As long as he wasn’t killed instantly, he could endure and survive, his life force was incredibly resilient. And after years of hard practice under his teacher’s guidance, Jett’s strength had reached the peak of fighters, powerful in battle. He believed that even if Whale King Arlington was a Boxing Master at the Ultimate Fighter level, it wouldn’t be possible to defeat him within just a few exchanges. At the very least, he could still use the Seven-star Life Realm to rebound, sustaining a few more punches.

Even more, Jett fantasized about using the five chances of serious injury to continuously wear down Arlington’s vigor and achieve an alternative kind of stalemate.

If he really could fight to a draw, his reputation would skyrocket instantly. Secret Martial Arts Worlds around the world, not just the Li Empire, would know of him and bestow great honor upon him.

This wasn’t daydreaming; it was based on facts.

Twenty years ago, before his teacher’s death, they had sparred with all their strength in a master-disciple duel. Jett had lost, of course, but not disastrously, and not in the absolute crushing manner he’d expected. That memory had filled him with ambition for the past twenty years, making him believe that even the level of an Ultimate Fighter was within reach. Although his teacher was in the twilight of his life then, Jett’s own current strength was nothing like it was back then. Twenty years ago, Jett was just entering the ranks of veteran fighters.

So, regarding Whale King Arlington, he himself had substantial confidence and assurance. As for relocating his entire school to the Eastern Martial World, he was also quite confident. By then, he would undoubtedly be a welcome visitor to this collective, fitting right in without much effort.

However, Jett overlooked some issues. Just how close to the end was his teacher back then? During that sparring, did he really give it his all? After all, the master had only agreed to it after Jett importuned him extensively; did that Boxing Master hold back? And there’s another crucial point—the Southern Jungle Boxing Master made a name for himself with the Seven-star Life Technique, which essentially was a recovery combat style. In contrast, Whale King Arlington was known for his aggressive and explosive fighting style.

Sometimes, overconfidence and misinformation are fatal.

In the Real World where Casio lived, as well as in previous Eras of Retrospection, there had never been a Secret Martial Arts School from the Southern Jungle in the Eastern Martial World, nor had anyone heard of the illustrious Seven-star Life Secret Technique. It would seem that the outcome of this historical battle was already decided.
