Chapter 448: 448: Ethan Smith Must Die!

Translator: 549690339

This news quickly swept through the entire Martial Arts Forum, even temporarily overshadowing Dexter Blair’s limelight!

“Ten half-step Martial Marquis are hunting down Ethan Smith? Have they gone mad?”

“How could a mere Ethan Smith possibly warrant the deployment of ten half-step Martial Marquis?”

“Even at his peak, Ethan Smith wouldn’t be worth such a fuss!”

“Hehe, isn’t this just a rumor? The Halcroen Sect has already been blacklisted by Pyro; even if they really want to hunt him down, why would they make such a high-profile move?”

People were buzzing with comments, expressing doubts about the message.

Soon, the person who posted the news provided a response.

“This decision was made after the Halcroen Sect evaluated Ethan Smith’s strength.”

This statement immediately caught everyone’s attention!

What does this mean?

Is the evaluation of Ethan Smith’s strength by the Halcroen Sect so high that it is worth using ten half-step Martial Marquis to get rid of him?

Isn’t this a bit too far-fetched?

Seeing this news, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but frown.

Ten half-step Martial Marquis?

Has the Halcroen Sect gone crazy?

“The Halcroen Sect really overestimates me.” Ethan Smith frowned and muttered softly.

This also couldn’t help but make one marvel at the Halcroen Sect’s power.

Just casually dispatching ten half-step Martial Marquis, how strong must their foundation be?

If it was just about martial arts, could even the big aristocratic families now in power match them?Finnd new chapters at novelhall.com

“Ten half-step Martial Marquis... This is really a headache.” Ethan Smith stroked his chin and muttered softly.

Even with the Venerable Fifth Mountain and the Divine Dragon Power, Ethan Smith still didn’t think he could face ten half-step Martial Marquis.

It was debatable whether he could even defeat one.

“It seems I must hurry to Dolan.” Ethan Smith thought silently.

Atticus Kane, a man of modest talents who managed to step into the Peak Form of Grandmaster Realm and even created multiple thesse some.

This was enough to show that Dolan was hiding an unknown secret.

“In my opinion, the threat posed by Ethan Smith far exceeds that of the Halcroen Sect.”

“Mr. Holmes, don’t joke around. Ethan Smith is just a Grandmaster. What qualifications does he have to be mentioned in the same breath as the Halcroen Sect?”

Emerson Holmes scoffed: “He’s a Grandmaster now, but what about in the future?”

“People like Ethan Smith, carrying a rebellious heart and lacking fear, will never view the Martial Arts Association with respect once they grow strong!”

“In the future, he may even cause upheavals in the entire martial arts world for the sake of so-called justice and fairness!”

“Mr. Holmes, aren’t your words too harsh?” someone frowned and said.

Emerson Holmes snorted and said: “It seems you all have forgotten about that person back then.”

Mentioning “that person”, everyone’s faces changed in unison as if it were an existence that must not be mentioned.

“At the beginning, when he appeared, we also mistook him for someone who couldn’t achieve anything.”

“And later? He almost destroyed our Martial Arts Forum!”

Everyone fell silent, seemingly swayed by Emerson Holmes’s words.

Emerson Holmes said calmly: “Ethan Smith must die, the sooner the better.”

“Moreover, I have already consulted with the presidents, and they agree with my approach.”

The group of high-ranking members looked at each other and then nodded: “Since it has come to this, we have no choice but to proceed.”

“However, we hope that things can be kept within a controllable range.”

Emerson Holmes nodded slightly: “Don’t worry, the Halcroen Sect’s target is only Ethan Smith.”

After the meeting ended, Emerson Holmes left the meeting room.

He took out his phone and called Reilly Blair.

“Mr. Blair, don’t worry, Ethan Smith won’t live much longer.” Emerson Holmes said calmly.

Reilly Blair on the other end grunted and then said: “Old Holmes, my son said he wants to kill Ethan Smith himself in front of Emily Taylor. You understand my meaning.”

Emerson Holmes hesitated for a moment, and after a pause, he said: “I understand. I will intervene at the crucial moment and save Ethan Smith’s life.”

“Not only do you have to save him, you must also cripple him!” Reilly Blair said coldly.

“Dexter can’t lose, otherwise, the entire Blair family and the entire aristocratic family of Capital City will lose face!”

Emerson Holmes said solemnly: “I understand.”

After leaving these words, Emerson Holmes made another call.

“Send someone right away to keep an eye on Ethan Smith.” Emerson Holmes said coldly.
