Harvey York’s Rise to Power

Chapter 6425

"No, we mustn't! The Shinto Way is the leader of the Six Schools of Martial Arts from the Island Nation. I heard

the Shinto Way have recorded many of their murderous techniques that originated during the Warring States

Period, and they're the only school recognized by the Island Nation's royal family.

"I have also heard that the school's techniques, if fully mastered, would even allow them to communicate with

the spirits of the Island Nation. It's not wise for us to oppose a school like this, so we shouldn't accept the next

challenge!

"Not to mention, they're fully prepared while we're completely caught off guard. How are we supposed to win?

I've also checked the 24 elites that have fought earlier. They're either from the training grounds or martial arts

families, but every one of them is the best among the youths in our country- but they didn't even survive one

round!

"How are we supposed to fight in this situation? How can we even attempt to win the fight?'

Deep inside the Songstress's Stage, a group of old men clad in traditional garbs sat around a round table. One of

them was expressing his opinion energetically.

"We won't accept this challenge! Just give an excuse. For example, just say we are an ancient country full of

customs, and we prefer to win by methods of non-violence and diplomacy. Spend smoney and spread it all

over the internet, pulling the wool over the eyes of the citizens. Once sthas passed, who'd remember

about this anymore?

"But if we do accept the challenge... There's nothing to say if we win-our reputation will grow stronger. But what

if we lose? Who can settle this? Who can accept the responsibility? Not only will the Alliance's reputation be

ruined, but how are the Sacred Martial Arts Training Grounds supposed to exist after such humiliation?

"That's why I suggest we ignore all the challenges issued by Shinto Way. Just say we never received it. We can

also get rid of them and send them back to the Island Nations through diplomatic means by claiming their visa

has expired!"

Many of the Elder Group nodded in agreement when they heard what the chairman of the association Madden

Lee said.

At their age, they prefer to pick a less risky way when faced with such a situation. They can retire in a few years;

plus, who would remember about this later? As for the Alliance losing its reputation? That's the Alliance's

reputation, not theirs.

"I don't agree with what you say, Mr. Chairman."

A youthful voice echoed among the old. Everyone turned and looked at the only young man among them. He

was the current leader of the Heaven's Gate Sacred Martial Arts Training Ground, Prince.

Prince played with the coffee cup in his hand, and said, "Our country has always been the center of this

continent. We even used to call the Island Nation the Barbaric Nation when they were just our country's vassal

state. The Island Nation's martial arts might even originate from our country.

"With that piece of history in mind, how can we surrender to the Islanders? Don't you feel shameful at all? What's

the point of refusing to face the challenge and lie to ourselves? This is so humiliating!"
