Looking at the puddle of flesh and blood on the ground, Mitchell swung the Silver Dragon Spear around twice to flick the blood off it.

Afterwards, he walked back to his original position under everyone’s gaze and calmly looked at the men in black behind the Kerr Clan.

“Who’s next?”

His tone was calm like an ancient well without any ripples.

It was as if the intense battle just now was not worth mentioning at all.

Now, Lionel was completely stunned.

One had to know that those men in black were experts that he had paid a considerable price to hire.

He didn’t expect he would suffer a great loss from a young man who was a few years younger than him.

However, there were still three experts behind him.

As long as they go onstage…

At this thought, Lionel regained his calm expression.

This young man must have won this round because of luck.

Yes, that’s right.

He must have been too careless. Otherwise, how could he have been so easily dealt with?

Lionel turned around and quickly asked the other three men in black behind him,

“Which one of you will be going up next? We must not be careless this time.”

The three men in black behind him did not speak.

Not only that, they didn’t even spare a look at Lionel.

All three of them were staring intently at Mitchell right now.

More accurately speaking, they were staring at the young dragon behind Mitchell.

This was a silver dragon!

Others might not understand, but they knew very well.

A young dragon was absolutely priceless in the black market.

Many nobles wanted to buy a young dragon for fun.

Moreover, this young dragon was the most powerful silver dragon among the dragon race!

That was enough to increase the price of this young dragon by ten times.

Greed appeared in their eyes.

There was no point in staying here any longer.

“I’m sorry, Lord Kerr.”

“We won’t be getting involved in this mess with you.”

With that, the three men in black left the arena.

***

That scene stunned everyone.

They thought that there would be an even more intense battle coming up.

Why did those people standing behind the Kerr Family leave?

Were they afraid of the young man on the stage?

Immediately, everyone could not help but look at Mitchell on stage.

With his silver spear and silver armor, he looked valiant and heroic!

The people who had wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to follow the Kerr Family and ruthlessly trample on the Leon family initially, had all begun to reconsider.

Even without that young man, the Leon Clan wasn’t so easy to deal with.

And now with this young man in the family, the Leon Family had become an even more thorny giant.

His attacks were ruthless and his moves were precise and fast. He definitely had quite a high attainment in battle techniques.

What was even more shocking was that this young man actually had a silver dragon.

Although it was only a young dragon, it could dispel dark magic. It was a fact that everyone could see.

This way, the Leon Family’s reputation as the number one family in Storm City would be even more stable.

***

At the side of the arena, the cardinal sternly urged Lionel Kerr,

“Lord Kerr, please send someone up as soon as possible. If no one is going up, then the Kerr Clan will lose this match.”

The cardinal who seemed to be targeting the Leon Family initially now had a 180-degree change in attitude.

Now it was Lionel Kerr who was being targeted.

Hearing the cardinal’s words, Mikhos felt even more gratified than soaking in ice water in the middle of summer.

It was finally Kerr’s turn to feel this kind of f*cked up feeling.

Lionel Kerr, on the other hand, looked terrible.

After all, he had given the church a lot of benefits just for this competition so that he could target the Leon Family in this competition.

He didn’t expect that the church would immediately turn on him once they saw that he had lost power!

At that moment, the chatter began to appear in the audience, as if they were all expressing their displeasure at Lionel Kerr’s inaction.

They were here to watch the battle, and not to watch him hem and haw.

These discussions undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on Lionel.

Right now, Lionel’s face was already completely dark.

Actually, the plan to antagonize the Leon Family wasn’t initiated by him.

It was those men in black who came to his door and tricked him into it.

Not only did those men in black help him obtain the position of patriarch, but they also promised that they would help him trample over the Leon Clan and make their Kerr Clan the number one clan in Storm City.

However, they also asked for a lot of benefits from Lionel.

Antagonizing the Leon Family wasn’t a small matter. Since he had done it, there was no way he could turn back.

In order to guarantee success, he even secretly gave the church many benefits.

But now?

The people in the church had already turned against him, and the men in black left without any care for him.

What made him feel even more despair was that he had completely offended the Leon Clan this time. There was no longer any room for negotiation.

The discussions around them grew louder and louder, gradually turning into denouncements.

Lionel finally couldn’t withstand the immense pressure and announced his surrender.

***

The audience dispersed in satisfaction after hearing Lionel declare his surrender.

The most interesting part was already over. There was nothing else to see anymore.

Next, all they needed to do was stay at home comfortably and enjoy watching how the Leon Family completely destroyed the Kerr Family.

If the Leon Clan had not been so strong, they might have felt pity for the destruction of the Kerr Clan.

After all, the enemy of an enemy was a friend. Losing a friend was still rather sad.

But the Leon Clan was simply too formidable.

It wasn’t an existence that could be easily defeated by their combined efforts.

If the Kerr Clan successfully took away the management rights of the eastern marketplace, it would definitely be a huge blow to the Leon Clan. They might even consider taking the opportunity to continue suppressing the Leon clan then.

But the Kerr family failed.

Everyone understood the principle that the winner takes all.

Not only did they give up on the idea of using this opportunity to attack with the Leon Family, there were even some families that were already thinking of how to deal with the Kerr Family, so they could butter up the Leon Family.

This world was simply so realistic, cold, and heartless.

Interests and benefits were always the most important.

Lionel’s expression was already grim.

He naturally knew what he would be facing next.

Mitchell, on the other hand, walked over slowly and said calmly,

“Shouldn’t you hand over the agreed Fire Lizard?”

The corners of Lionel’s eyes twitched upon hearing that.

He looked at the cardinal instinctively.

All he received was a threatening look.

Obviously, if Lionel dared to go back on his word or reveal that he had colluded with the church, the church definitely would not let him off.

Faced with the pressure from multiple factions, Lionel lowered his head resentfully and said in a deep voice,

“I’ll send the Fire Lizard to your residence now.”

Mitchell didn’t pester him further. He simply nodded and said, “Alright.”

Then, he left.

Staring at Mitchell’s back, Lionel was already resenting this strange young man.

“If this guy wasn’t here to stir things up…”

A vicious plan formed in Lionel’s mind uncontrollably.
