Chapter 2211 Visiting Master Bane
Upon hearing Martin's words of praise, Levi sent him an exasperated look.
"| think you're just into his medicine-producing abilities and want to benefit more from him." "You're so dull, Levi.
You don't have to say it out loud. Besides, aren't you the same?" Saying that, Martin crossed his arms before his
chest and prepared to make his leave. "Aren't you afraid the Martial League won't entertain you if you rush over
like this?" "You act as if they'd entertain you. Goodbye, speaking to you is a waste of my time."
With those words, Martin led his emissaries toward the direction of the Martial League with Levi and his elite
Flaming Guardians in tow.
After Matthew returned from his short trip, the courtyard that had once been full of life was now a lot calmer.
With three days until the Holy Doctor Competition, each of the representatives for the various hidden sects had
already begun their final preparation.
The only people who seemed to be idle were Salazar and the crown prince, both of whom were seated by a stone
table and concentrating on a gof chess. As the two nodded to themselves with all their focus on the
chessboard, they did not even notice Matthew even when he reached their side.

After a long while, the crown prince spoke up. "Who's turn is it?"
Facing him, Salazar jolted in surprise.
"Uh, I don't know. The weather's so good, so let's just sleep."
"Okay!" After responding simply, the two continued to nod off to sleep.
Seeing this, Matthew rolled his eyes, feeling somewhat amazed by their behavior.
After taking a look around his surroundings and noticing that everyone had returned to their rooms to busy
themselves with their respective matters, Matthew decided to leave Renew to visit Old Mr. Bane instead. After
all, he had promised him during Marissa's birthday banquet.
In the vast and empty courtyard of Bane Manor stood a figure with white hair who was holding up a palm while
his other hand formed a fist. With his movements, a gentle breeze gradually began to blow, but as he lifted his
right leg, a powerful gust of wind followed. Immediately after, he displayed a dizzying array of moves, from
elbow strikes to punches and kicks, leaving behind trails of afterimages with each strike. At the stime, the
leaves around him rustled along with the force of his movements.
Is this Old Master Bane's true powers?
Just as Matthew was taken aback, Old Mr. Bane, who was still practicing martial arts in the courtyard, suddenly
turned around and lightly shot out a palm strike toward him across the air. Caught off guard, Matthew could only
cross his arms in front of his body. As a tremendous force struck him, he was forced to back a few meters away.
He flung his numb arms, knowing that Old Mr. Bane had gone easy on him. It wasn't until Old Mr. Bane retracted
his hands and withdrew his moves did he move forward to greet him. "Greetings, Master Bane."
Facing him, Old Mr. Bane nodded in relief. From the way he was able to defend himself so easily, it seemed that
Matthew's powers had advanced.
"Drop the formalities. By the way, your abilities have improved a lot in the few days | haven't seen you."
At his words, Matthew straightened his posture and chuckled.
"I'm just a fool; it's all thanks to your teachings, Master Bane."
Hearing that, Old Mr. Bane let out an exasperated laugh. "Out of all the things you could pick up, it had to be
that smarmy tongue of yours."

"By the way, how did it go?"
Upon saying that, Old Mr. Bane pointed to the table nearby, indicating for Matthew to take a seat.
"It's all going smoothly. Have stea, Master Bane."
As he spoke, Matthew prepared a cup of tea for him.
After taking a small sip, Old Mr. Bane fell silent for a long pause before he said, "That's good to know!"
With the people of Emsgate traveling all the way to Bainbridge to kick up a fuss about the Highsea incident, it
was impossible for Old Mr. Bane to be unaware of it. However, as Matthew hadn't brought it up, he couldn't point
it out either. Perhaps this disciple of his was just afraid of causing trouble for him.
At that thought, Old Mr. Bane shook his head.
"Even though the initiation ceremony has already taken place at Old Madam Bane's banquet, | haven't taught
you all that you should know yet. Since you're already here, I'll use this opportunity to pass on the complete set
of mixed martial arts to you."
With that, he rose to his feet and swished his long sleeves before he headed to the empty space in the
courtyard.
