Chapter 597
Powerful families often prioritized their reputation and though Walter desperately wished to get rid of Leon, he could not neglect
the impact of his actions on the family’s name.
“How about this? Leon, I’ll send a Field from the second generation to fight you and if you manage to defend yourself under
three attacks, we’ll forget that anything ever happened! Fail to do so, and you’ll have to get out of this city!” Walter decided to
compromise.
“Second generation?” Leon’s eyes lit
up.
Walter was one of the most formidable martial artists of his age, having reached the Peak Supreme State or higher, so Leon
could not withstand three punches from someone at his level. However, he might stand a chance against someone from the
second generation. Though Leon was not certain about the strength of the second generation of Fields, he witnessed Gilbert’s
power.
Gilbert was the head of the second generation of the Youngs and reached the Advanced Supreme State; assuming that the
second generation of Fields were at the same level at best, Leon was confident that he could withstand three strikes. However, if
his opponent was at the Peak Supreme State, his chance of survival would be close to zero.
He hesitated and wondered if he should risk it all.
“Haroon, come on out!” Walter glanced behind him to signal a middle–aged man with eagle–like
eyes to step out of the crowd. “Leon, Haroon isn’t even the direct descendant of the second generation of the family. I believe
that asking you to face him isn’t unreasonable!” Walter said while eyeing the Shears and the others.
He had specifically avoided choosing the brightest amongst the direct descendants within the second generation to stop the
Shears and others from protesting it.
“Yeah, that sounds fine!”
“It’s not unfair!”
“I guess it’s up to Leon to see if he can withstand three punches!”
...
The others all nodded their heads in agreement.
“Great!” Leon said, feeling glad and confident since Walter selected a collateral descendant.
“Mister Wolf, don’t fall for it! Haroon Fields might be a collateral descendant, but he reached the Intermediate Supreme State
about three to four years ago and is the brightest among other collateral descendants! There are only a few formidable martial
artists at the Intermediate Supreme State who can rival him!” Harvey pulled Leon backward and said.
The Shears and the Fields were always competitors and no one knew the Fields better than the Shears. According to what
Harvey remembered, not only was Haroon one of the best martial artists at the Intermediate Supreme State, he was not far from
reaching the Advanced Supreme State and was far stronger than most of the Fields‘ direct descendants; even if Leon was at the
Intermediate Supreme State, it would be a struggle to survive three strikes from Haroon.
“Leon, Harvey’s right. You can’t agree to this. Just get them to pick someone else!” Benedict shot Leon a
pointed look.
“Well,” Leon was over the moon when he found out about Haroon’s power level.
