"Mason Raymond?" Walton Greer's eyes narrowed as he sneered, "You finally have the guts to show your face?"
I pulled Conrad Schroeder to his feet, then fixed Walton with an icy stare. "Even if you don't seek me out, I'll hunt you down."
At this, Walton broke into laughter. "Hunt me down? Do you realize... I've reached the half-step Martial Marquis Realm!"
"I've taken down half-step Martial Marquises before," I replied coolly.
Walton scoffed. "You mean Joey Ebony? Sure, he broke into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm using a Magic Weapon, but he's nothing compared to me!"
"Really?" My qi flared as I shoved Conrad aside and said icily, "Let's test that theory."
Seeing me ready to strike, Walton suddenly raised his hand. "Wait, wait. We're both well-known young talents. We can't brawl in a dump like this."
I narrowed my eyes, sensing what Walton was after.
