Nonetheless, Fane decided on going. That place was a wide-open field with nowhere to hide anything, and he was very confident in his abilities. Even though the other two might be a bit difficult to handle, the two of them were no match for him if he used the full extent of his abilities. The other warriors could be dealt with by those who went with him.
After two hours, Fane arrived at the arranged place where Guardio, Jake, and five other warriors waited. When he saw how serious all of them looked, Fane could not help but wonder what they were thinking.
As he thought about it, he continued walking toward them. After another five minutes, Fane stopped about 60 meters in front of them. Since Fane was standing the furthest in front, the two of them stared at Fane.
When Fane stood still, Jake shouted out hoarsely, "I was wondering who it was. So it's you!"
Fane raised an eyebrow curiously, not expecting the man to recognize him. He looked at Jake, thinking about it for a while before noting that he had never seen him before.
Jake did not wait for Fane to ask any questions and added, borderline shouting, "Who did the screening? How did they miss out on such a big problem?!"
Jake was incredibly emotional, so much so that his hands were clenched and his whole body was trembling. Moreover, he looked rather…crazed.
Guardio looked at Jake in confusion. He did not recognize Fane at all; it was his first time seeing Fane.
When he saw how emotional Jake was, the curious Guardio reached out to grab Jake's arm. "Who is this person? Why are you so emotional?"
Jake replied, "Do you remember me telling you I had three juniors who lost to a warrior from a third-grade world? It's this guy. His name is Fane. His image has already been circled around our clan!
"Every single warrior from the Azure Clan knows who he is! I shouldn't have slacked off when they were doing their checks. I should've followed them and looked through every single person. If I was doing the checks, I would've seen him immediately! This guy just brings disaster!"
Just thinking about Fane's record, Jake could not help but shiver. Both the 33rd and 32nd-ranked disciples had fallen to Fane even when they attacked Fane together. After that, a chosen disciple ranked in the top 20 but whose true strength was in the top 15 had lost to Fane as well.
Just with those results, Jake believed that Fane would at least be ranked in the top five in his clan. He would definitely not be able to stand up against Fane. Fane had completely turned the tides just with his own strength, which made Jake even more sure that Fane was the scourge of the Azure Clan.
Jake's hands trembled slightly. "I can't believe it's you! I thought that you wouldn't arrive in Weinhord City so quickly, but I was wrong. I can't believe we were unlucky enough to meet you."
Jake's lips trembled as he spoke. His expression looked so sour that it looked like he had eaten a fly.
He turned around and said helplessly, "If it were anyone else, the two of us might've been able to face them together. If it's Fane, then forget about it. I don't have the confidence. Even if the two of us work together, I'm still not confident in beating him. This guy really is a variable. Not only that, but he's…a complete monster, too."
