Chapter 244 William is Here, He Doesn't Dare to Speak!
The attendant dropped another bombshell.
All the martial arts masters turned pale.
They could tell Adrian wasn't even a semi-master of martial arts.
But his aura was overwhelmingly powerful, enough to threaten every single one of them.
The masters felt a suffocating pressure!
The strongest individual in the Nine Armies lived up to his reputation!
Manuel's frown deepened.
The strongest individual meant the greatest potential.
He wasn't just backed by The Ravenous Wolf Legion, but by the entire Nine Armies!
Even the Merchants' Guild of Shadows and King Zachary of Sunview City would have to think twice!
After a moment of hesitation, Manuel smiled and said, "So it's Mr. Brooks! Congrats to The Ravenous Wolf Legion for winning first place in the Nine Armies competition! And congrats to Mr. Brooks for taking the strongest individual medal!"
Adrian's expression shifted.
He hadn't expected the other side to be so well-informed.
Manuel chuckled, "Mr. Brooks, I will heed your words! I hope we can be friends! Let's go, retreat!"
At his command, the Enchantment Suppression Army immediately withdrew.
But before leaving, Manuel pointed at William, "Don't think I'll let you off! There will be a time when you're alone! Just wait!"
He couldn't believe William's luck would always hold, with someone coming to his rescue every time.
William smiled, "No need, I'll take care of the Merchants' Guild of Shadows tomorrow!"
This statement left Manuel and his men fuming.
Jasmine and Eugene were also stunned.
Was he just bluffing?
Why didn't he speak up earlier?
Now that Adrian had Manuel under control, he was acting all tough.
What a useless guy!
Seeing William's smug look, Jasmine was infuriated.
How could there be such a man?
After Manuel left, everyone returned to the Watson Mansion together.
"What? First place in the Nine Armies competition? The Ravenous Wolf Legion has been last for the past four competitions!"
"And now they're first?"
Jasmine, who had been holding back, exclaimed in surprise at Adrian.
She knew a lot about Eldoria's military divisions.
She knew the Ravenous Wolf Legion was considered weak and not favored in the Nine Armies.
How could she not be excited by this news?
Adrian gave a shy smile, not daring to speak.
With William around, he behaved like an obedient schoolboy.
"And the strongest individual medal? That's incredible!"
She kept exclaiming.
So Adrian was the top prodigy of the Nine Armies!
Each of the Nine Armies was full of prodigies!
Adrian being number one?
What did that mean!
The top of the top!
A future full of promise!
Eugene and Fiona looked at him with admiration and amazement.
"How is this kid so outstanding? He's incredibly strong!"
"Oh my gosh! Colin must be over the moon! This has to go on the front page of the family record!"
Eugene was excited and envious.
This was truly bringing honor to the family!
Fiona had mixed feelings.
She was happy for Adrian, and her daughter was also making progress, stepping onto a bigger stage.
But her godson William was a different story, falling further behind these two...
The gap was like night and day!
The three of them showered Adrian with praise, making him very embarrassed.
Especially with William there.
His achievements were nothing compared to William's.
And all his accomplishments were thanks to William!
With everyone praising him like this, he felt awkward.
He instinctively looked at William.
Seeing William's calm expression, he immediately felt relieved.
But to Fiona and the others, Adrian's expression seemed to mean something else.
They thought Adrian was deliberately trying to compare himself to William.
