Chapter 131: Death By Anger

“Nonsense… How is this possible…” The middle-aged man could not accept Locke’s answer. He felt uneasy and spat out another mouthful of blood.

Locke smiled. “What’s impossible? I control my strength very well. I won’t kill anyone. If I’m wrong, I’ll compensate him by a couple hundred to a million coins. It would even be a profitable experience for them…”

The middle-aged man could not come to terms with Locke’s answer. It was so crude that he had not expected it.

‘This guy isn’t playing by the rules at all!’

It was infuriating!

“Tell me, are there any surprises waiting for me on this trip? Hey… Hey! You’re not that petty, right? Don’t tell me you’re gonna die from anger?” Locke asked in concern, as the middle-aged man was foaming at the mouth

It seemed that the middle aged man had been angered to death by Locke’s reasoning!

The few police officers who had woken up immediately rushed over.

“What happened?”

Locke stood up and took out his student ID.

Upon realizing that Locke was the great hero of their Holy City, the police officers did not make things tough for him. After explaining what had happened, the police officers dragged the middle-aged man who had died of anger away and said goodbye to Locke with a smile.

In order to prevent any more incidents from occurring, Locke ordered Lil’ White to keep watch of the luxury carriage. After all, Locke would not run out of mana anyway.

Around eight o’clock the next morning, Lawrence finally woke up. While rubbing his eyes, he greeted, “Good Morning, Captain and Rosetti!”

However, he soon realized that Rosetti was the only one awake. She was wearing headphones and listening to music while reading a book.

Meanwhile, Locke was sleeping soundly.

“Sigh, you’re so young, and yet you can’t wake up early?” After saying that, he pressed the service button to order breakfast.

“Hello, sir. How may I help you?”

Lawrence realized that the person who came was not Dora and asked, “Where’s the beauty from yesterday?”

“Oh! Dora? She moved to another carriage at four o’clock yesterday afternoon. I’ll be the one serving you from now on.”

Strange!

‘Wasn’t Dora serving us yesterday evening?’

However, the beauty in front of him was by no means inferior to Dora. As such, Lawrence was not too bothered by it, and he proceeded to order a list of food.

Around 12:30 p.m., the three of them had finally arrived at Gold City’s train station.

As soon as they exited the train station, they noticed person holding up a sign. On it were the words ‘Welcome, Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy’.

After looking at Locke and the other two student’s student IDs, the person led them into a car.

“We’re currently heading to Alson Hotel, a venue that we’ve specially booked for this competition. Please don’t wander around before the competition starts…”

Locke nodded and began to observe the scenery of Gold City as the car sped by.

If the Holy City was a commercial center, then Gold City was the capital of Battle Beasts.

Battle Beasts, especially those of the gold element, could be seen wherever Locke looked.

It seems that the citizens of Gold City adored Battle Beasts greatly.

Some people were holding signs in their hands, in an attempt to sell off the tickets to the competition at a high price.

Upon reaching the hotel’s lobby, the trio grabbed a seat at the sofas and waited for the check-in process to be completed.

Not long after, three students who were wearing green military uniforms, also walked into the hotel.

The person at the front seemed to be the captain of the trio, and he was constantly sizing up the people in the lobby.

“Captain… They’re from the Advanced Military Academy…” Rossetti informed Locke in a low voice.

When Locke turned around to observe the newcomers, he noticed that the captain was already standing before him.

“You guys are from the Federal Academy, right? You must be Locke, then.” The student wearing a military cap extended his hand.

Locke raised his eyebrows and extended his right hand. “Yes, I am. And you are?”

“Oh… I am Bronte Trudeau from the Advanced Military Academy! You can call me Bronte!”

Bronte’s polite expression greatly contrasted the unfriendly gazes of the two tall men behind him.

“Ah! Captain! Snake!” Rossetti was so scared that she jumped up!

It was not that she was timid, but rather, the snake that was wrapped around Locke’s hand looked rather sinister.

It had green skin and a purple tongue, it looked highly venomous.

Moreover, Bronte’s seemed to be exerting more strength in his grip.

“I’m very interested in you. I heard that your Battle Beast is also a snake. It looks like fate has brought us together!” Bronte’s face was still filled with a polite smile.

While both captains locked gazes with one another, the other guests in the hotel had also recognized the three students in military uniforms.

“Oh my God! is that Bronte from the Military Academy?”

“He’s a genius! I’m betting on him to win the competition…”

“Who isn’t? With Bronte’s in the picture, betting anyone else would be a waste of money!”

“He’s really handsome too. Moreover, he’s recognized as the number one student in the entire Federation!”

“I have to get an autograph from him. It’ll be worth a lot of money…”

Beastmasters in this world were no less popular than celebrities, after all.

Bronte kept exerting strength in his hands, but Locke’s expression did not change at all.

At this moment, Lawrence also noticed the change in the atmosphere. He hurriedly went forward and said with a smile, “Bronte, we’ve already completed the formalities. Let’s talk about the greeting later…”

However, Bronte suddenly gave him a sinister and vicious look, scaring Laurence so much that he unconsciously took two steps back.

“That fatty can’t be a student of the federal academy, right…”

“It’s them. Just look at the school emblem on their chests and you’ll know…”

“What kind of joke is this? They actually sent a fat pig to compete…”

“Hehe… I heard that the Federal Academy has just suffered a serious blow. Naturally, they don’t have much talents left…”

“I bet that the Federation Academy will be at the bottom of the competition this time…”

“Look at that person shaking hands with Bronte. There’s no change in his expression at all. I reckon that he has already been scared silly by Bronte…”

“I want to record them…”

An internet blogger immediately connected to the internet with his mobile phone and started a live broadcast.

The Three Academies Martial Arts Display was an important event in the Federation, after all.

As soon as the live broadcast started, countless bullet comments appeared on the screen.

“Isn’t that Bronte?”

“Bronte is so handsome! He’s so tall too!”

“Who’s the person shaking hands with him?”

“That’s Locke from the Holy City’s Federal Academy…”

“That’s right! It’s him. He was in the limelight a while ago!”

“So What? Be it in terms of experience and strength, Bronte is definitely stronger than him…”

“Look at this kid Locke. He seems to have been restrained by Bronte…”

“Fight! Fight!”

Almost everyone in the live broadcast room was supporting Bronte.

Moreover, due to Locke’s low profile nature, no one knew much about him.
