Chapter 357
“Ethan, can you tell me where Snow is? I don’t expect her to return, but at least let me apologize to her. Even if you only tell me which city she’s in now, it’s fine!”
Ethan said with a smile, “No.”
Stephen lowered his head. Although he had expected it, he still felt heartbroken when he heard such direct words from Ethan.
Stephen’s friends could not bear watching it any longer. How did Stephen become so cowardly? Moreover, now they understood that Ethan had hidden Snow away!
Someone stood up and stared at Ethan coldly. “Tell us where Snow is.”
Stephen panicked and quickly said, “Don’t be rash.”
His friends frowned.
“Stephen, what’s with you?”
“Where’s the decisiveness you had before?”
“He’s already walking all over you, so why are you still so polite to him?”
“There’s so many of us here. If we gang up on him, he’ll definitely give us whatever answers we want.”
“That’s right. He thinks you’re easy to bully because he hasn’t gotten a beating yet!”
The man who had initially confronted Ethan strode toward Ethan. His name was Andy White, a tall, imposing figure. Andy often trained with his elders at home, so his combat
skills were formidable.
As Andy stood before Ethan, Andy reached out his hand, wanting to grab Ethan by the collar and lift him. Ethan put the teacup in his right hand down while extending his left, swiftly deflecting Andy’s outstretched hand. Then, with a single kick-
‘Bang!
The kick landed directly on Andy’s chest. Andy let out a muffled grunt, stumbling three meters backward. Just as he regained his balance, he saw Ethan.stand up.
Andy’s depression darkened. He had been training since he was young but some country bumpkin in Riveria kicked him? He immediately ran toward Ethan, wanting to knock him to the ground.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Ethan sidestepped effortlessly, dodging Andy’s attack. Before Andy could react, Ethan’s leg swept across his back.
“Ah!” Andy screamed in pain as Ethan’s kick sent him falling face–first to the ground.

Ethan said calmly, “You’re brave, but you’re impulsive and you don’t think of a strategy beforehand. How did your mentor even train you? Ask him to meet me. I think he needs to retake his training.”
Andy’s expression worsened. Instead of saying that he needed to retake his training, Ethan suggested that his master needed it. Was he implying that Andy had learned nothing properly?
Initially, Andy just wanted to stand up for Stephen, but now, he just wanted to prove that he was no weakling! He tried to spring back up, but as he jumped up and barely steadied himself, Ethan kicked him back down again.
“You don’t even know the right way to get up quickly. With your abilities, it’s good enough if you don’t drag Stephen down, let alone stand up for him.”
Andy felt his face burn in embarrassment. He had been training since childhood, but he had been kicked down twice in a fight. It was humiliating!
He rolled on the ground, trying to distance himself from Ethan before quickly crawling back up.
“I was just careless just now!”
“Enough!” Stephen shouted, stopping Andy.
“Stephen, why are you stopping me?” Andy was dissatisfied.
Stephen said in a low voice, “You’re not even his match.”
He then looked at Ethan with a complex look. He did not expect Ethan to be this skilled. Andy was the best fighter among them. He also had a skilled soldier as his mentor, who was said to be incredibly powerful, having dealt with 59 enemies in a single day’s battle.
Ethan sat down again. As the Grand Marshal’s mentee, he was trained in combat. With his current skills, even if several skilled soldiers attacked him together, they would not be a
match for him.
Stephen took a deep breath and said, “My friend was ignorant and offended you, but I hope you won’t hold it against him.”
Andy was stunned. He could not believe that Stephen was apologizing! He exclaimed, “I haven’t lost! I was just careless just now. I haven’t used my full strength. Stephen, he’s treating you like this, but are you just going to swallow your pride?”
Stephen replied, “Stop talking. Let’s go back. It’s a joyous day for me, so stop causing any more trouble for my sake!”
Only then did Andy quiet down. However, he decided in his heart to challenge Ethan again. He must also call his mentor over! How dare Ethan ask his mentor to retake his training?

Since that was the case, he would call his mentor over and see if Ethan still had the guts to say such bold words!
