******

The atmosphere snapped into silence… so sharp, so sudden, it was as though time itself had recoiled.

Glenn’s voice, calm and almost bored, continued to echo faintly in the room like a vice.

“I’m someone versed enough to train you.”

No thunder cracked, no lights flickered. But the words hit harder than either.

What followed was a dead stillness… so thick it pressed against every eardrum

No one moved, not even a breath seemed to pass through the room. It was as though the world itself had gone mute in protest of the sheer audacity that had just been spoken aloud.

To everyone present… Trent, his family, Melissa, the extended relatives, and even the allegedly divine-level doctor, Master Zhen Yuan. All of them couldn’t help but find Glenn's words too incomprehensible, ludicrous, and even blasphemous.

This wasn’t just a case of biting the hand that heals. No, this was more like watching a stray mutt bark at a demigod and declare itself the trainer.

If even half of what Trent

  • Chapter 335 – A Cleared Misunderstanding

    ******“Even if he can’t fight,” an onlooker couldn’t help but mutter, his voice dripping with disbelief, “at least he could pretend!”“Argh! He’s giving up just like that?” another shouted. “Not even trying to run for his life?!”“Could it be he’s actually looking for death?” someone else added, baffled and frustrated.And with this, the onlookers grew restless… agitated and helpless, because they already knew how this would end. Or thought they did.Meanwhile, the thugs…Their mockery was venomous enough to poison the air.“Look at him! Standing there like a dumb scarecrow!”“Hey, pretty boy! Should we give you time to write a will?”“It should’ve been someone with a backbone who had gained the boss’s wrath. This one looks like he faints when someone sneezes.”Their laughter rolled across the street, sounding cruel, sharp, and humiliating.Their laughter rolled across the street… loud, vicious, and deliberately humiliating.

  • Chapter 334 – A Misunderstanding

    ******Within seconds, the street began to drift back toward its earlier noise, people talking over one another… relieved, confused, and irritated, until suddenly…“You…”The gang leader’s voice sliced cleanly through every sound, snapping the chaos in half.His finger pointed toward the thug whose family jewels Red had kicked earlier, the poor guy who had appeared as though his soul had been knocked loose since then.“Join him and bring him here.”The thug swallowed hard but nodded, his respect evident even in the way he lowered his head.Then he limped forward, each step sending a pulse of agony up his spine. The spectators winced just watching him.His brothers did not offer sympathy.Instead, they laughed in a mocking and unrestrained manner.“Careful with that limp! Looks like the gender-confused psychopath turned you into half a man!” one jeered.“Hope you are still a man or you’ve become a princess!” another yelled, laughing excitedly.And hearing them, both humilia

  • Chapter 333 – A Believed Speculation

    ******Seeing the Mutt raise his head, the crowd instantly stiffened, their hearts feeling suspended in midair, bracing for an outcome they weren’t ready to accept.The onlookers hated these criminals, yes… but death wasn’t something casually digested.The mutt glanced at his leader before speaking.“Although his heartbeat has become faint…” he began.But before the sentence even finished, a wave of relief washed through the onlookers and thugs, their shoulders dropping and their breath releasing from lungs that had forgotten they needed to function.“He wasn’t dead.”Someone in the crowd exhaled so loudly that it almost echoed, and the others followed, unaware that they had been holding their breath until that very second.But they stayed quiet. No one dared interrupt as the mutt continued his report.“Nothing beyond ordinary seemed to have happened to him,” the mutt said, his voice growing steadier. “Instead…”His expression suddenly twisted with puzzled disbelief.“He se

  • Chapter 332 – Had He Died?

    ******“Silence!”The sudden, startling voice came from the gang leader, who currently stood radiating a chilling, predatory calm… the kind that didn’t need to raise itself to dominate an entire street.His present composure was so icy, unbroken, and terrifying, that it seemed as if the world itself bowed to him.And the moment his voice landed, the atmosphere in the street shifted significantly.It didn’t just go quiet...it froze, his words seeming to echo in the air, directly swallowing every sound, and reducing the rowdy chaos from earlier into a tension so absolute that it felt like the air had turned solid.Every person present stiffened, every heart skipped mid-beat, and even the bravest onlookers felt their lungs lock, trapped under the pressure of his presence.And with this, the kind of abrupt silence that felt unnatural, like someone had pressed a mute button on the entire street, descended.Only then did the gang leader move, slowly and deliberately shifting his att

  • Chapter 331 – The Embarrassed Thug

    ******For a moment after the thug’s words sounded, the street’s chaotic din vanished, as if his words had sucked every sound into a vacuum.Then everyone… the thugs, the onlookers, and even those still circling Red, stopped.Then their eyes, slowly, subconsciously, and unhurriedly turned to Glenn, all of them frozen like statues, their hearts hammering in terrified sync.No one could speak for a moment, all of them thunderstruck.But then…“Pft! What a joke.”The thug who had previously struck… one of the four circling Red and the one who had feared Glenn earlier, laughed.It wasn’t a mere chuckle, no. It was an outburst of cruel laughter that directly shattered the fragile silence like glass breaking against concrete.In the very next second, all heads whipped toward him, but he seemed entirely unbothered, as though he had just heard the universe’s funniest punchline.Pointing directly at Glenn, he sneered, his voice thick with sco

  • Chapter 330 – Could He Have Taken the Brother Down

    ****** A burst of pain had snapped through the thug’s spine as he found himself slamming into the dirt. And immediately following that, the entire world seemed to have flipped violently upside down. Before he even realized it, his vision had swum and his ears had buzzed, a distant taste of iron appearing in his mouth. ‘What…? How…?’ His thoughts had scrambled like broken glass scattered in a storm, unable to understand what had happened. One second he had been attacking, but the next… he had been airborne, and then everything went black at the edges. He had tried to form a thought, any thought, but none had stuck. Instead, his skull had felt as though a sledgehammer had crashed down on it… merciless and final. A sledgehammer against an ant. That was the closest comparison his dissolving consciousness had been able to muster. And he, of course, was the ant. And just like that, darkness had swallowed the last of his awareness, dragging him under. Then his body ha
