Everyone’s eyes turned toward a certain direction.

“It… it’s the Campbells!”

Some people from Oregon exclaimed in surprise and immediately revealed the identity of the people walking over.

The old man walking in front was Noah, the helmsman of the Campbells from Oregon. Apart from his bodyguards and a group of juniors accompanying him, there was also a

large group of people from the powerful families of Oregon following behind him.

n addition, a black-robed man in his fifties with a long beard and an ethereal aura was walking beside Noah.

Lucas was surprised to find that the aura emanating from this black-robed man was extremely strong, much more than the middle-aged man the Coles hired!

Moreover, Lucas could sense the undisguised hostility and murderous gaze in the eyes of the black-robed man from the moment he saw him.

But Lucas merely glanced at him without taking it to heart.

Even if the black-robed man was powerful, Lucas wouldn’t be scared.

Edmund looked at Noah, who was aggressive as soon as they met, and felt uncomfortable.

“In terms of ostentation, we can’t compare to you, who has everyone at your beck and call, Mr. Campbell. Oh right, Master Lewis, whom you respected greatly, ended up

losing miserably at the hands of the Peerless Martial Association. Have the Campbells found a stronger expert? Don’t repeat the same mistake!” Edmund mocked.

oah narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a vague ache in his heart. He really didn’t want to recall the feeling of being shamed again.

“Hmph, don’t be too happy! We still don’t know who will have the last laugh! Do you know exactly who | invited this time?” Noah sneered.

He pointed his palm upward at the black-robed old man beside him and introduced arrogantly, “The person standing beside me is Mr. Alonso, the leader of the Octa Faction

in Oregon! With him around, there’s no way California can win!”

As soon as he said this, the people standing around cried out in shock and inhaled sharply.

“What? This is Mr. Alonso, the leader of the Octa Faction? I’ve always heard of him, but it’s the first time I’m seeing him in person!”

“Oh my God, the Campbells actually managed to invite Mr. Alonso!”

“Mr. Alonso is a top expert! With him here, Oregon is bound to win!”

“That’s right. With Mr. Alonso here, no one can defeat him, not even in the Peerless Martial Association’s California and Oregon branches!”

The Octa Faction was quite famous, and Mr. Paul Alonso was an unreachable existence in the eyes of many top experts.

Even the many powerful helmsmen present were more or less aware that Paul was indeed a powerhouse.

These families had visited Paul before to invite him. But regardless of how tempting the conditions they promised were, Paul never agreed.

They didn’t expect Noah to be able to invite him.

In the face of such a strong enemy, all the helmsmen of the families of California became gloomy.

“Uh… Mr. Campbell, I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent to attend to at home, so I’ll take my leave now. I’m sorry. I won’t be able to attend the

competition today!” the expert brought by the Dreyer family suddenly said with a pale face.

Before Mr. Dreyer could even say anything, he immediately sprinted away, as if there was something terrifying chasing him.

“Damn it!” Mr. Dreyer cursed bitterly, his expression angry.

The other people of the Dreyer family also felt very humiliated.

They didn’t expect that the expert the Dreyer family had found would be so frightened to the point that he would find an excuse to escape immediately after hearing Paul’s

name!

His behavior had embarrassed the Dreyer family in front of the numerous helmsmen.

As expected, several disturbances broke out in the California camp after Mr. Dreyer’s expert fled.

“Uh, Mr. Goldman, I suddenly remembered that my wife is due for labor today. I have to go to the hospital to take care of her. I’ll take my leave now!”

“Mr. Ross, my old ailment is acting up, and I can’t fight now. Please find someone else!”

“Mr. Walter, my mother-in-law is coming to my place today, so I have to get going. I’m sorry!”

After hearing that Paul of the Octa Faction was on the other side, many of the experts invited to compete today immediately fled with far-fetched excuses.

In the end, except for the middle-aged man following Edmund, almost all of the experts from the other families had run away and vanished without a trace.

Seeing this scene, the helmsmen became disgruntled. It was really embarrassing that the experts they had hired at a high price fled at the last minute one after another!

Contrary to the atmosphere on the California side, the helmsmen of Oregon immediately burst into laughter.

“Hahahaha! Hilarious! The competition hasn’t even started yet, and Mr. Alonso’s name was merely mentioned, yet those people of California have fled like mice seeing a cat!”

“Haha, so this is the style of the Master of California! I’ve gotten an eye-opener today! They almost scurried away! Hahaha, I’m laughing my head off!”

“People from California, are things okay on your side? I think all the people on your side have run away. Will you have enough people to compete later?”

“Since you’re so afraid, why don’t you just surrender now? You can also save yourself some embarrassment later!”

Lucas was a bit curious. A single name was actually enough to make so many experts from California abandon the competition and leave. He wondered if this black-robed

man was really that powerful.

Facing the ridicule and mockery from the families of Oregon, Edmund stepped forward and said coldly, “Today’s martial arts competition is not a contest of who has the

most people! Only after you have defeated the powerhouses of California and the Peerless Martial Association can you have the right to be arrogant to us!”

Noah laughed smugly. “Hah, with Mr. Alonso, why would we have to be worried about winning?

“In no time, you’ll have to kneel down and concede to the powerhouse of Oregon!

“Let’s go!” With this command, he turned around and led the group of people from Oregon into the venue.

Lucas watched them go in before saying indifferently, “Let’s go too.”

“Yes, Mr. Gray!” The helmsmen of California agreed and gathered around Lucas as they made their way into the venue.

This martial arts competition, which attracted the attention of the two states, would officially begin in a few minutes!.
