To her astonishment, Ivy felt the strange itch attacking her body again, and she could not help giggling. "Darryl, I don't want to go on with that bet anymore. Stop it! Stop!" Ivy had yet to figure out what was going on, but she knew that the strange feelings on her body must be related to Darryl. At the same time, Ivy felt like letting go of the crystal ball in her hands, but it seemed to have taken root in her hands, and she could not throw it away. For a moment, the ticklish feeling made Ivy tremble, her red lips slightly parted as she giggled. However, the expression on her face looked more bewildered than cheerful. When he thought that Ivy might have had enough, Darryl breathed a long sigh and said with a smile, "What do you think? Are you convinced now?" "Not convinced!" Ivy could not stop trembling while she fought the hot and itchy sensation. Yet, she bit her lip tightly and resolutely spoke out her mind. 'Does he think he can convince me with such simple tricks?

Ivy frowned; she could not help but murmur softly, "Mister Darryl is someone with great abilities. You ought to be respectful toward him in the future, alright?" Err… Holden was surprised to hear Ivy say that; he could not believe his ears. He did not give up his questions. "Miss Ivy, he—" Ivy interrupted Holden before he could finish talking. "You should go now." Ivy was too lazy to engage in nonsensical talk, so she said, "I will be here waiting for Mister Darryl. By the way, you're not allowed to come here and disturb him in the future without permission!" Holden did not like it, but he dared not refute Ivy's statement. He replied servilely, "I understand!" After that, he went off. Holden was very annoyed. 'F*ck! What kind of magic potion did Darryl give to Young Miss? Why is she so protective of him now? I must teach him a lesson if there is a chance in the future.' Meanwhile… When Darryl arrived at Dominic's study, he saw the man sitting down with a sullen look.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Stallon looked around and thundered, "Today is All Souls' Day. No matter who is injured in this match, it will inevitably affect our relationship, so I would like to change the rules of the match." He pointed to a giant water tank by the door. "Whoever can lift the water tank and hold it for the longest time is the winner." 'What?' The entire court rose to a tumult in an instant; everyone was shocked. "That water tank is at least a thousand catties, no?" "I heard that Stallon is a brute in Storm City. There should be no problem for him to pick up the water tank, but can Holden do it?" "That is interesting..." Amidst the commotion, many people cast Dominic a strange smile. Dominic was annoyed. 'F*ck! Stallon is obviously doing that on purpose. He is a brute, so he would have no problem picking up the water tank, but how could Holden possibly do the same?' Holden stood in the court with an extremely ugly expression on his face. He was not a

"Okay, let me explain the rules." Kelly spoke as she looked around the hall. "Whoever can lift the water tank by the door and hold it for the longest time wins!"Then, Kelly sat down and raised her hand. "The time starts now." Stallon shouted, "I'll go first!" The giant man rolled up his sleeves, strolled toward the door, and grabbed the edge of the water tank with both of his hands. Then, he began to exert his strength gradually. The muscles on Stallon's shoulders bulged, blue veins jumped into sight as he displayed his explosive strength. Wow! Everyone in the court nodded in admiration. "Indeed, he deserves to be called Hunter's most formidable guard." "His title is well-deserved!" Hunter remained on his seat and drank leisurely when everyone was discussing the match. He looked very confident. He was sure that he would win the game, so he thought about how to humiliate Dominic. Dominic and Ivy frowned discreetly. They were panicked and anxious. Especially Do

Finally, Hunter was the first to react and laughed at Dominic. "Dominic, is your follower in his right mind? He said he wants to lift the knight statue? Is there no better talent in San Morio City? How can you recruit someone like him as a follower?" There was a burst of laughter in the hall. Ivy could not stand it anymore and whispered to Dominic, "Father, let's give up!" Dominic shook his head. Dominic also thought that Darryl was only joking, but then he thought about what had happened 2000 years ago when Master Franklin traveled to the Roland Continent. Master Franklin was treated as a weirdo at first. It was only after the numerous miracles he performed that he was finally recognized as a legend. It sounded ridiculous when Darryl said he wanted to lift the knight statue, but perhaps he could really do it. Darryl brushed off the ridicule and laughter. The next second, he walked out of the hall and headed toward the knight statue. There were still some bursts of laug
