“I really have a lot of things to deal with, and I have no plans for taking up the role as Martial Alliance's leader. I'd rather spend more of my energy on cultivating,” Jared answered plainly.
Hearing his reply, Samuel did not continue persuading him. In the end, it was Jared's decision whether he wanted to become the leader. No one could force him into it.
“Mr. Chance, I came here not only to congratulate you, but I also have something to tell you. Sean has gone looking for Sylvester, his second brother, to avenge Xander. Sylvester has been training with the main Cooper family a few years ago.
Rumor has it that he could even enter the ancestral hall. That means that he's quite skilled,” Samuel whispered.
“It's all right. Whatever will be, will be.” Jared smiled, not at all bothered by the news.
After all, there was no avoiding it. Since he had bad blood with the Cooper family, then he had to deal with them, eventually.
After seeing Jared's unconcerned attitude, Samuel thought it was pointless to continue saying anything else. Hence, he merely said, “Mr.
Chance, I'll send someone to inform you about the Cooper family's plans right away if they are related to you in the future.”
“Thank you, Mr. Bailey.” Jared nodded in courtesy.
Spencer glanced at the clock and urged Jared, “Mr. Chance, it's almost time. Look.”
Hearing that, Jared looked down at his watch. He then got to his feet to face the crowd that came from both states and said, “Thank you for your graciousness. However, I have to admit that I'm inexperienced, and I am not qualified to become the leader of the Martial Alliance. Please look for someone else.”
The crowd was stunned, unable to believe how Jared rejected the position without hesitation. To them, the position of Martial Alliance's leader was a position that everyone in the martial arts world admired. Yet, not everyone was qualified for it.
They never expected Jared to reject such a great opportunity.
