CHAPTER 507 UNQUALIFIED

"…"

Silence hung heavily in the room.

Emmanuel was stunned.

Caroline and Kate, who had watched Leo fighting before, were dumbfounded to see what was

happening.

Even Keegan’s face grew solemn.

Kate was right. Leo was more than a master. He did nothing but throw a punch, but even Keegan had

to deal with it cautiously, because any carelessness would lead to failure.

What was more dreadful was that he hadn’t even reached 30!

It was extremely rare to meet a young master like him!

Meanwhile, Emmanuel was too shocked to speak.

In his original plan, when Billy beat Leo up, he would use the Hopkins Budo Association as a deterrent

to swallow up the J Group and the Hopkins branch of the L Group.

But unexpectedly, Leo knocked Billy down with a punch.

At this moment, Emmanuel thought of Leo’s "kind" warning. Leo told Nathaniel it was better for him to

send his strongest men, or he could go into battle personally.

Nobody took what Leo said seriously at that time, and they even burst into laughter.

But now, Emmanuel regretted it.

Nathaniel should have listened to Leo!

Leo went out of the ring without looking at the unconscious Billy and smiled at Emmanuel. "Can you

announce the result of the game now?"

Emmanuel, however, felt great pressure at the sight of Leo’s smile.

Even if he wanted to be partial towards Billy, he had to declare Leo’s victory.

After a while, Billy woke up slowly. Thinking of what had happened before he passed out, he turned to

Leo in surprise.

Leo, dressed in a fine suit, was staring at him with a smile, his thermos in his hands again.

"You’re awake?"

Beside Leo stood Emmanuel, whose eyes were filled with fear instead of disdain.

Now Billy even regretted having come to the L Group with Nathaniel.

Billy struggled to his feet and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his cheek.

Leo suddenly said to him, "I suggest you not touch it. It hurts."

Billy decided to follow Leo’s suggestion and put his hand down. Then he stared at Leo with mixed

emotions, and the dismissive and sardonic look on his face could no longer be seen.

"So that is the military boxing?" Billy asked.

Leo nodded happily. "Actually, it’s a better version of the military boxing, the Lightning Boxing."

"The Lightning Boxing?!"

Billy’s mind went blank as he heard the name. He widened his eyes in astonishment and stared at Leo

in disbelief, as if he was struck by lighting.

"Were you doing the Lightning Boxing invented by Martial Maestro, Mr. Cohen?"

Leo chuckled. "Martial Maestro didn’t invent the Lightning Boxing. He carries it forward."

Billy’s eyes were gleaming with excitement as he heard Leo’s answer, and he looked at Leo even more

reverently.

"Do you belong to the Mars Sect, Mr. Cohen?"

Leo shook his head. "No."

The Mars Sect was a general designation of a martial arts force carried forward by Martial Maestro,

and Leo had nothing to do with it.

Billy was a little disappointed to hear that.

Leo continued, "You just need to understand one thing. Any sect of the martial arts world has its

existence value. Don’t look down upon any sect! For example, the Lightning Boxing comes from the

military boxing."

"Thank you for the lesson, Mr. Cohen." Billy folded his hands together and said in a low voice, "I admire

strong people. I’m sorry for having looked down upon you before."

Leo waved his hand. Soon, Billy left the J Group building.

Emmanuel also wanted to leave, but suddenly, Leo’s voice came from behind him.

"Did I say you can go?"

Emmanuel froze before he looked back angrily.

"I can’t go? What do you want to do? I didn’t have a competition with you."

Emmanuel was a refined businessman. How could he fight with Leo?

Kate and Caroline also turned to Leo in surprise.

Emmanuel was the head of the JP Business Association. What was Leo going to do to him?

Leo replied with a calm smile, "It’s true that you weren’t having a competition with me, but if I recall

correctly, you also want to get me into trouble, right? Besides, you want the J Group and the L Group to

join the JP Business Association?"

A chill ran down Emmanuel’s back.

Was Leo going to settle accounts with him now?

However, Emmanuel was the head of the JP Business Association, so he didn’t think Leo could do

anything to him.

Emmanuel replied boldly, "Yes, indeed. What’s wrong with that?"

Leo chuckled. "We won’t this time. But let me give you a word of advice. The J Group and the L Group

won’t join any business association. If anyone tries to force the two groups to join any association, I’m

afraid he won’t be the head of that association anymore."

Emmanuel’s face clouded over as he heard what Leo said. He never expected Leo to leave no door

open. He wouldn’t join any business association?

Emmanuel couldn’t help but say, "I don’t think this will do any good to you. If you join the JP Business

Association and become a member, not only can you expand the market, but you will also meet more

potential business partners. Many businesses try everything to join us, but they all fail. Why must you

refuse us? Or, do you think the JP Business Association isn’t good enough for you?"

Emmanuel was being kind and modest by saying so, because firstly, he couldn’t afford to provoke Leo;

secondly, it would bring him many benefits if the two groups joined his association.

In fact, the JP Business Association is one of the top eight national business associations across the

country. In Emmanuel’s eyes, only the MC Chamber of Commerce (MCCC), the GS Chamber of

Commerce (GSCC), and the JW Chamber of Commerce in Valenham (JWCC), were bigger than his This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

association. Among them, JWCC was the association held by the nine royal families in Valenham.

Leo, nevertheless, shook his head. "No. The real reason is, none of the top eight business associations

is qualified to make the J Group and the L Group submit to them!"

Leo’s eyes were sparkling as he said so.

Besides Emmanuel, even Kate was staring incredulously at Leo.

That man was crazy.

He must be crazy.

Each of the top eight business associations was strong enough to rock the national economy,

especially JWCC. Even the Spencer family joined it to keep its huge economic cycle going.

However, Leo claimed that none of the business associations was qualified to make the J Group and

the L Group give in to them.

If word got out, people must think he was crazy.

Angry, Emmanuel looked sullenly at Leo. "OK, I’ll deliver the message to them. Except for the HY

Business Association, you’ve offended the other seven. Have you thought it through?"

Leo, nonetheless, asked Emmanuel to leave. "You may go now."

Simmering with rage, Emmanuel snorted and left.

At this moment, Kate stood up. "I won’t give up."

After that, she left too.

Aware of what she meant, Leo chuckled.

He would never attend the Northernland General Assembly, no matter how many times Kate came to

ask him.

Meanwhile, Billy was driving to the Hopkins Budo Association.

Suddenly, a huge truck rushed towards him.
