"I hold all the answers you’re looking for. But if you’re too weak, knowing the truth will only become a torment.""If you uncover everything yet can do nothing, it’s better not to know at all.""In fact, you still have a choice—you could walk away from all of this and live a quiet, peaceful life."Adams flexed his knuckles, his voice as cold as ice."And what about you?" Joseph retorted. "Would you choose ignorance too, to live out your days in comfort?""I'm not like you," Adams replied flatly. "I do what I believe is right. I’ve done so for years. That’s why your master sent you to me."His face remained expressionless as he shook his head."In that case, there's no need for more talk. If strength is what you want, I’ll return with it."Joseph’s tone was steely."I’ll be waiting," Adams said, managing a twisted, mirthless smile."Then, Chief Instructor, I’ll take my leave."Joseph gave a slight bow, his tone equally frigid. He had expected this—extracting information from Brian Ada

After a round of intense drills, the students all dropped into horse stances. The man rose and walked over, kicking a few students sharply in the legs.They winced in pain but made no sound.Then he barked out a few commands. Joseph could hear his voice clearly, though he couldn’t make out the exact words.That man, without a doubt, was Brian Adams."That’s Brian Adams, the chief martial arts instructor—and the man you’re here to see," Foster said."I figured as much," Joseph replied, squinting toward the field.With that, the two began walking toward him."Chief Instructor, someone’s here to see you," Neil Foster called out.Brian Adams glanced over, then shifted his gaze to Joseph, narrowing his eyes. He didn’t recognize the young man, but the presence of Foster with a stranger clearly piqued his suspicion."Fifteen-minute break!" Adams barked.Only then did Foster and Joseph step onto the field.Up close, Joseph got a clear look at the man. His features were already harsh, but the

Unsurprisingly, his proposal sparked keen interest. None of them had ever experienced such an assessment method before.After finishing the morning session, Joseph took a brief rest. It wasn't until after two o’clock that he set off for Nova University’s West Campus. His appointment with Neil Foster was scheduled around three in the afternoon, so his timing was just right.As expected, he arrived at the campus with about ten minutes to spare. The West Campus sprawled across a vast area—so much so that Joseph felt it might even surpass the main campus in size. Yet, its population was noticeably smaller.Clearly, the spatial demands of this campus differed greatly from the main one. Joseph quickly noticed that many of the training facilities here occupied large plots of land. The overall atmosphere and layout contrasted starkly with the main campus.With some time to kill, Joseph drove leisurely through the areas of the campus open to vehicles. He observed that many key entrances and bu

"I’d like to organize a free clinic just outside the school gates, where all students can participate." "As for the grading breakdown, I’m proposing: 50% written exam, 20% daily performance, and 30% based on their involvement in the clinic."Joseph’s tone hinted at something more—an ambition beyond academic scores."Mr. Wilson, your idea is certainly novel, but it requires hands-on involvement. At my age, I’d be hard-pressed to keep up, and as a thoracic surgeon, I’m not exactly suited for free clinic work," Felix Baker said with a wry smile."I’d be happy to team up with Mr. Wilson," Brady Rogers offered with a smile. "We teach the same four classes, just different subjects.""You two collaborating sounds perfect. Honestly, I think Mr. Wilson’s idea is fantastic," Mason Alvarez added between bites of her breakfast."If Professor Rogers is willing, I’d be glad to partner with him," Joseph said. "I’ve already drafted a rough plan, but I’ll need to discuss it with the Dean and Directo

"There are two ways this can go. Option one: the two of us travel to Nova City and meet him in person. Option two: you bring Mr. Wilson home to visit. Simple as that," she continued, her tone gentle but firm. "We’re reasonable people, you can choose which option you prefer. How about it?"Mason Alvarez was stunned. "Wait—what?""What’s the matter? Is there a problem?" her mother asked."Of course there’s a problem!" Mason exclaimed. "You’re moving too fast. Can’t you give us a bit more time? We’re still in the early stages... still getting to know each other!""Getting to know each other? What’s there to get to know? I think Mr. Wilson sounds like a fine young man. It’s settled—you’ll bring him home for a visit. We’re not asking you to marry him or have kids tomorrow, just introduce him. What’s the big deal?" Her mother’s tone left little room for argument."Can’t I at least think about it?" Mason sighed. She knew once her mother made up her mind, it was nearly impossible to sway he

"I'm not really that hungry. If you're hungry, just go ahead and eat by yourself," Joseph said casually."Oh, fine then. I'm off," Mason said, heading toward the kitchen.Meanwhile, Joseph stayed behind in Mason's study, busy with the light fixture. Changing a bulb was hardly a time-consuming task for him. Within a few minutes, he had replaced the bulb.After flicking the switch a couple of times to ensure everything worked properly, he turned off the light and stepped out of the study, shutting the door behind him. He gathered his tools and placed them in the living room.Just then, Mason emerged from the kitchen, carrying a steaming bowl of noodles."Mr. Wilson, this one's for you. Wash your hands and dig in—I even fried an egg for you," she said warmly."Thanks," Joseph replied and went to wash up.When he returned, he wasted no time in digging into the food."How is it?" Mason asked, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she watched him eat."Huh? What do you mean?" Joseph was
