Chapter 5233
Layton was cursing in his heart, but he didn’t say anything out loud. After all, maintaining his status as an expert was always a good thing.
If he killed Harvey, not only would his embarrassment not be announced to the world, but he’d be praised as being compassionate as well.
Layton scoffed. Without hesitation, he pulled out the sword on his waist.
He was a God of War! An expert martial artist!
It was simply too degrading for him to pull out his weapon just for a small fry…
However, the people of Heaven’s Gate were pridefully cheering their hearts out.
“You’re dead! You’re dead, Harvey!”
“Mr. Layton’s been honing his blade for decades! It’s an honor for you to see him in action!”
“Who in the world can even defend themselves from Mr. Layton?!”
As they cheered, Layton swung his sword right at Harvey’s head at the speed of light.
Speed was the only way to long success. Naturally, a God of War like Layton knew that. He omitted all fancy moves, and dished out a flurry of swift attacks! The swings were fast. Overwhelming power could be felt on each swing, and terrifying gusts of wind were formed with every attack.
The crowd was cheering loudly, but they also stepped back out of fear, afraid they’d get swept up in the fight.
Layton, who hadn’t said a word, showed a profound expression. There was a hint of horror in his eyes.
Country H’s sacred martial arts training grounds were extraordinary; their strength would definitely be at least on par with the Six Schools of Martial Arts.
But the people of this country liked going against each other, so they weren’t particularly difficult to deal with either.
If Layton killed Harvey, Shinsuke would have ways to make Layton spill everything he knew about the mental cultivation technique.
Bryn started to breathe more rapidly; she was an experienced martial artist, so she’d naturally have a keen eye.
She could almost tell that Harvey was done for! Not only that, but he wouldn’t even be able to keep his body intact!
‘Serves him right! Damn him!’
‘He should’ve died for flaunting his title as the representative of the country’s Martial Arts Alliance as he pleased!’
Bam, bam, bam!
Against Layton’s flurry of attacks, Harvey finally decided to move. He kept twisting his body around, dodging every single attack at the nick of time.
Glimmers of Layton’s blade kept swerving around Harvey’s body, unable to touch him despite such a short distance.
Harvey was always on the verge of death, but Layton never managed to seal the deal. Layton’s expression worsened, and he started to swing his sword faster. Bam, bam, bam!
The trees, rocks, and bricks behind Harvey were constantly destroyed. The blade cut all over the ground, to the point the streaks formed the shape of a spider web.
Adler and Osman, who had impressive skill, couldn’t help but frown in confusion.
Bryn’s expression changed slightly as well; she already told Layton not to hold back for the Martial Arts Alliance… But Layton was still toying around.
‘He must’ve swung his sword a hundred times by now…
‘Why is Harvey still completely unscathed?
‘What’s going on here? What’s the meaning of this?
‘Is Layton trying to figure out Harvey’s mental cultivation technique through the fight?
‘There’s no need! He’s been fighting for so long! Is it really that precious?’
