As Fade's voice spread, after a short silence, the audience burst out in excitement. The sounds of discussions rang out, so loud that it could be heard across the river that was a hundred meters wide.
"What is Fade talking about? He said that Herman and the others were all looking for death."
"He's way too arrogant. He speaks so highly of himself in front of so many experts."
"I heard that this boy was very arrogant, but I thought it was exaggerated. However, now that I see it, it's not overstated at all. This boy really is arrogant!"
"Hmph, he is being haughty at the wrong time. He can't even see his situation clearly right now. He's truly an ignorant fool."
"Let's see how he will die."
Most of the people were shocked and their faces contorted with rage.
As soon as the martial artists heard this from the bridge, they were furious. Waves of positive energy surged up into the sky.
"Brat, you're courting death!"
"What an arrogant fellow! He's still spouting nonsense!"
"You ungrateful thing! Just wait, I will make you regret it."
Despite their anger, Fade's expression did not change. He looked in the direction of the bridge and said calmly, "Are you done with the nonsense? If you want to fight, then let’s go for it. I don't have time to waste here."
"Brat, you..." The audience was outraged.
Herman, who was standing on the top of the bridge, raised his right hand to silence the crowd. He spoke in a low voice, "Fade, during your time in Micovia, you bullied our people, invaded their property, and killed the innocent..."
Murmurs rose up as a group of people appeared at the end of the bridge and began to talk about how Fade had bullied them, taken over their property, and killed their families. If one did not know, they would think that it was so sorrowful and miserable.
Fade looked over and recognized a lot of familiar faces.
Among them were Hannes and his son, Harson from the Hoyte family of Losangel City, the halfcrippled members of the Manson family, the members of Newsbery's Green Gang, and the representatives of Bald Eagle Pharma.
Herman must have spent a lot of effort gathering these people who had a grudge against Fade to be present there. He wanted to frame him into an unforgivable villain, and he would be looking down and trampling his personality in the name of morality and humanity.
Undeniably, this misled those who weren't aware of the truth, especially the audience in front of the live broadcast. A lot of people now thought that Fade had committed heinous deeds in Micovia, which was why he was jointly wanted by the martial arts world of Micovia.
The discussion climaxed again, both on the spot and on the Internet.
Among the crowd on the riverbanks stood the members of the Losangel City's Hubbart family. They stared at the group of people on the bridge, feeling complicated and conflicted.
Simeon looked at his elder brother and father who were standing aside and complained "Dad, Garwn, look. Even the Manson and the Hoyte family intervened; there is nothing for us to be afraid of. Fade is definitely going to die. There will be no risk if we make our stance now. Moreover, we can attempt to curry favor with Herman and make friends with the Altis family. Instead, you just sit by. You're really..."
Simeon spoke angrily.
However, Garwn, on the side, remained calm and still. "Fade's strength and capability is beyond your imagination. Perhaps he'll create a miracle that we can never even think of. Hence, we can't take this risk."
