Chapter 637
Outside the Doyle family gates, a Maybach revved up and drove off, successfully shaking off the group
of people who were chasing after them.
“Thank God I moved fast, or I wouldn’t even have the chance to talk to you.” Paul turned around and
looked at the annoyed group behind them, impressed by his foresight.
“It’s not that bad.” Dustin was puzzled.
“You don’t seem to understand your value yet.” Paul shook his head, chuckling. “Being able to defeat
Terry Doyle has already proven how powerful and talented you are. There are less than five people in
Balerno who could even be on par with you, so countless guilds are desperately trying to rope you in.”
“Tsk. What a bother. I should have kept a low profile.” Dustin sighed. He had only challenged Terry to
warn the Doyle family not to mess with him. He didn’t expect them to invite so many people to watch
the battle in an attempt to boost their reputation. Still, the Doyle family has shot itself in the foot since
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe was the one who ended up receiving the boost in reputation.
“You’re an interesting fellow. Others would die for that fame, yet you don’t want it at all.” Paul smiled
“Things like fame can’t even fill my belly. I’m sure that once word spreads, I’ll have people coming up to
me to challenge me to a duel. Aren’t I just making things troublesome for myself?” Dustin shook his
head.
“It’s hard to find someone who looks at fame and fortune so lightly nowadays.” Paul studied Dustin
appreciatively.
“Don’t flatter me, Sir Paul. I’m just a normal person. I don’t have any great ambitions, so whatever you
want to say, just tell it to me straight.” Dustin changed the topic.
“Alright, then. I’ll get straight to the point.” Paul nodded. “I wanted to talk to you about the Knighthood
Society Tournament.”
“The Knighthood Society Tournament?” Dustin was confused.
“Every three years, there will be a Knighthood Society Tournament between Balerno and Glenstead.
The purpose of this tournament is to find new talents as well as observe how strong each side is. The
outcome of the battle will determine the direction in which the alliance will
grow for the next three years. The winning side has the right to call the shots and occupy more.
resources. Therefore, I hope that you can join the tournament as Balerno’s representative,” Paul
explained
“But why me? There are so many skilled fighters in Balerno. There’s no way a youngster like me has
the right to represent Balerno.” Dustin was still puzzled.
“First of all, I have high hopes for you since you’re a capable individual. Secondly, there’s an age limit.
Participants can’t be more than 38 years old. Thirdly, each side has five slots. Terry Doyle was
supposed to take one of them, and since you’ve injured him greatly, you’ll have to take his place.” Paul
smiled.
“What?” Dustin paled He never thought things would get so bothersome after defeating Terry.

And if you win, the alliance will grant you one wish. Money, power, jewels, women name it, you’ll have
it.” Paul urged.
“Grant me a wish?” Dustin pondered for a moment. He wasn’t interested in money or power, but he did
happen to need two rare precious herbs. With the alliance’s help, he might be able to find them more
easily.
“Let me know what you need, young man. Don’t be shy.” Paul took advantage of this opportunity and
began pressing.
“Sir Paul, have you ever heard of the thousand-year green lotus and Cherusia?” Dustin asked.
“Thousand-year green lotus, no, but I know who has Cherusia,” Paul answered.
“Really? Who?” Dustin’s eyes lit up.
“That’s a secret for now.” Paul tried to entice Dustin “Of course, if you’re willing to represent Balerno in
the upcoming tournament, I’ll let you know regardless of the tournament’s results.” “I guess that means
I don’t have a choice.”
