In an instant, the crowd fell silent. Eckhart's female fans who cheered him on before also turned speechless.
Eckhart himself was full of disbelief too. He propped his body up and looked at Fade, incredulous, "This is impossible, how could this be? How could I lose? I can't lose! I am ranked eighth on the Dragon List. How could I lose to a nobody like you?"
Such a Waterloo was unacceptable for him and he started to whine and shout.
The spectators looked on with both confusion and curiosity. Eckhart placed eighth on the Dragon List, and he was definitely considered a strong martial artist in the same age group. Fade wasn't old. In fact, he was younger than Eckhart, but he could defeat him. It showed that he was indeed very powerful and should be ranked on the Dragon List.
However, when the crowd checked the Dragon List, they found out that none of the top seven places were Fade.
Just as Eckhart was shouting hysterically, Martin snorted coldly with disdain, "You're just the eighth place in the Dragon List. What's so unacceptable?"
"Let me tell you, Mr. Fade Chen is ranked first in the Dragon List. It's normal that you lost."
"Him? Number one on the Dragon List?" Eckhart was startled before he shook his head, "That's impossible. The number one on the Dragon List is Romeo Hsing, not him. You're lying."
Martin sneered, "Lying? Let me tell you something. One year ago at the Martial Arts Convention in Capital City, Mr. Fade defeated Romeo and achieved first place on the Dragon List."
"After that, Mr. Chen defeated several martial artists of the Heaven Level in Capital City and was officially listed in the Divine Dragon List."
"The number one on the Dragon List from a year ago and listed on the Divine Dragon List?" When they heard this, everyone buzzed, including Eckhart, who was shocked beyond comprehension.
Many people started looking it up on the Internet. In an instant, there were exclaims of surprise everywhere.
"It's true, it's actually true. Last year, Fade won first place in the Dragon List. There's news about it."
"Also, look at the current Divine Dragon List, Fade's in the top hundred."
While the spectators debated heatedly, the Qin and Hsiang family members thought of many other matters, and their expressions became more unsightly.
"The first ranking person on the Capital City Dragon List is Fade Chen. Could he be that famous young master?"
"What's more, he was the chief instructor for the Stealth Team and just stepped down not long ago."
Fade's identity and titles were revealed one by one. The people on the scene were all knocked off their socks, dazed. Everyone's faces changed.
"This Fade is actually this indestructible! Could we, the Qin family, be wrong?" Houston couldn't help but say.
Yaakov's face turned pale too, "The chief instructor of the Stealth Team, a young master; that's a Heaven Level martial artist!"
As for the Geng family members, they let out sighs of relief, feeling lucky. It was a good thing they stopped going against Fade. Otherwise, it would mean doom for them if they offended a strong young master.
Just as everyone was in shock, Eckhart's expression changed. All of a sudden, he felt a familiar presence and his nervous expression became at ease. He looked up into the sky, "My teacher's here."
As he spoke, a middle-aged man floated over to Eckhart's side. The man was clad in a long green robe, his long hair and a long beard flying behind him.
When they saw him, the Qin and Hsiang family members became excited, and they hurried to greet him.
"Everyone from the Qin family pays their respects to Master Tuan."
"Everyone from the Hsiang family pays their respects to Master Tuan."
The newcomer was the famous martial art master of East Coast City, Eckhart's teacher and master, Sanford Tuan.
Sanford nodded slightly, "Master Qin, Master Hsiang, you don't have to be polite."
