The old man then chuckled. “Phoenix Ardron is among the top three juniors of the Cloudnine Sect. But forget her personal merit-her fiance is even more outstanding! I mean, he’s the commissioner of Hoxton despite his young age!”

“See?”

The old man pointed at the men-in-black who cleared a path for Phoenix, grinning. “Those men are all the Hoxton commissioner’s boys, and they’re all packing heat. Who would have the balls to beat her when a commissioner has her back?”

Clapping Frank on the shoulder and sighing miserably, he said, “So just forget it. We don’t have a shot here.”

“So she’s Mrs. Commissioner, and the commissioner even sent backup?”P

Frank was actually shocked the woman had ties to the government too? Did that mean she had her finger in every pie?

And if someone actually dared to defeat her in the martial tournament, they would be in for a lot of trouble too…
