Chapter: 959

"Get out of my way! I’ll fight him!"

"And me!"

"Fuck this shit. I’m in too!"

More people clambered to challenge the man in green, either out of anger or to defend their reputations as martial artists.

Still, no matter how many people tried attacking, none of them were a match for the man in green. In fact, most of them were easily swiped off the platform as soon as they got on. It was completely a one–sided battle.

After a while, everyone fell silent as shock and somberness replaced the arrogant shouts earlier.

If the man had only defeated one opponent, others might have considered it was due to his luck. However, defeating several dozen opponents nonstop could only mean that he was an incredibly powerful individual.

Thanks to that, the man finally earned some recognition from the crowd.

"Who is this guy? He’s so strong!"

"A man dressed in green and good at using a spear? Don’t tell me he’s the person who rose to fame in the martial world recently by challenging strong fighters–Verdant Phantom?"

"What? Verdant Phantom? I heard that even Geoffrey Vaughn, who’s in the top twenty of The Heavenly Immortals, lost to him!"

"He defeated someone as strong as Geoffrey Vaughn? He’s a monster!"

Everyone was shocked to hear his nickname. After all, the name Verdant Phantom had been gathering attention, especially after the man defeated Geoffrey Vaughn. However, since he never appeared in public, few knew what he looked like.

Everyone was surprised to learn that he would show up. They were even more shocked to see him challenging Balerno’s martial arts so openly.

"It’s your turn now, Terry Doyle!" Verdant Phantom lifted his spear and pointed its tip in Terry’s direction, turning everyone’s attention to the latter.

"Verdant Phantom is so strong. I wonder if Terry will win."

"Terry Doyle is ranked thirteenth on The Heavenly Immortals, while Verdant Phantom was able to defeat someone who’s on the top twenty of the same list. It’s hard to guess who might win."

"It seems like Terry Doyle finally met his match!"

The crowd gossiped nervously.

"Why? Aren’t you going to accept my challenge? Or do you plan to run away and hide?" Verdant Phantom taunted.

"How interesting." Terry chuckled and gradually approached the platform.

"I don’t know where you’re from, but you should at least let me warm up, right?"
