"As the saying goes, one who knows his own strength and that of the enemy is invincible in battle! Fane only came here yesterday. We don’t know anything about him, how his fighting prowess is, what is his signature combat move, does he have the strength to challenge beyond his level a s such. We don't even know basic of him!"
Liah was more cautious compared to the other two Woods. After a moment of silence, she blurted, "Master Woods dares t o organize an immediate competition, not even giving Fane the time to practice or prepare himself. Could it be that Master Woods has faith in him?"
"Heh? Faith in him?"
Hudson sneered. “That beggar is from the
outer world. Who the hell knows where he lives and from whom he learned his martial arts? Even though he has raw talent, what could he really achieve from the secular world? What strength and power does he have to compare with us?"
Hudson halted to ponder for a moment, then he continued, “I’m certain that even if our combat prowess and his is on the same level, we can defeat him easily. Any of us can defeat ten of him easily. Because his fighting technique and control of Chi won’t be as good as ours! So, naturally, he can't win against us.”
Martin concurred with Hudson and said, "I agreed with what Hudson said. It's already a miracle for that beggar to have the fighting prowess of a grandmaster level. Besides, if he's not at the grandmaster level, then he's at most a senior fighter! Definitely not at the semi-god level!"
"You're too sure of that, aren't you?"
Hudson sneered at Martin's childish claim.
"Hmph!"
Martin snorted coldly. "I went to ask the bodyguards at the gate about Fane yesterday. They said that the beggar didn't even make a move yesterday when Ninth Patronum was attacking him. He hid behind his friends! So, I think since he's hiding behind his friends, his fighting prowess is definitely not strong. His friends are afraid that he'll be killed! And that's why they fought for him!"
