Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 3294



The competition's finals would be held after three days.

The main reason was that all the participants had lost a lot of energy in the preliminary matches, so they needed time to recover.

During these three days, everyone remained occupied.

That was because other competitions for the tournament were carried out simultaneously during this period.

Competitions such as alchemy, talismanmaking, formation, beast-training, and so on were carried out one by one.

Although these competitions did not attract as much attention as the martial arts competition, it still caught many of the onlookers' eyes. The scene was very lively.

Fade did not pay attention to these competitions. Instead, he returned to Talmon's mansion.

Although he had not exhausted too much of his power during the preliminary round, he still used up some of his strength, after all. Hence, he had to hurry up and restore his strength.

However, just as he was about to go into seclusion to recuperate, someone came to Talmon's mansion.

It was Deniz.

"What are you doing here?" Yarrow was hostile towards him.

Deniz looked away from him and did not bother to argue with the latter. Instead, he raised his head and said, "I'm here for business so I have no time to mess around with you."

"You..." Yarrow's expression darkened.

Just then, Talmon stepped forward and boomed, "What is it? Just say it!"

Deniz replied, "Here's the thing. Master Gu has ordered Fade to go to his place to discuss the finals in three days."

"What's there to discuss?" Yarrow said

discontentedly.

Deniz was displeased, and he said, "Yarrow, what do you mean by that? This is Master Gu's wish. Are you going to defy his orders?"

"You..." Yarrow was about to retort.

However, Talmon said, "Alright, I got it. I'll take Fade there."

"You may come over tomorrow morning at ten o'clock. Please don't forget the time," Deniz said.

"Are you done speaking? Get out of here now!" Talmon waved his fist and sent Deniz scrambling out of the mansion.

Yarrow was a little puzzled. He looked at Talmon and said, "Why are you going to them? There's nothing to discuss with them. In my opinion, they are dissatisfied with Fade defeating Alyx. Maybe they are thinking of taking revenge against us!"

Talmon shook his head and said, "No, I believe it's about the finals. Devin isn't that stupid."

"Is there anything special about the finals?"

Yarrow asked.

Talmon did not answer his question. Instead, he said, "You'll know tomorrow."

"Go and inform Fade to get ready."

The next morning, Fade, Talmon, and Yarrow came to the Gu family mansion.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Although Fade had been in South Yan City for some time, he had never been to the Gu family mansion.

Upon entering the mansion, Fade was impressed by the size of it and its exquisite and luxurious architecture. "No wonder the Gu family has remained one of the most influential families in South Yan City for tens of thousands of years," he thought to himself.

Moreover, the family had specifically set up a formation around the mansion to defend against possible invasions from outsiders.

The inside of the Gu family's mansion was much more luxurious than Talmon's mansion.

After walking for about half an hour, they finally arrived at the main meeting hall.

Several people were already sitting in the conference hall by the time the three men arrived, including Devin, Deniz, Uzair, Alyx, Beatrice, and some others of Fade's acquaintances, as well as several elders whom he had never seen before.

As soon as the three men entered the room, all eyes fell on them.

"They're here!"

Devin announced.

"Yes. We're here!"

Talmon replied.

The next second, Deniz shouted at Fade, "Master Gu is here, why aren't you bowing to him?"

Fade remained unmoving, showing no intention of paying his respects to Devin.

"How dare you!" Deniz thundered.

However, at this moment, Talmon sneered and said to Devin, "If you summoned us here only to play this little trick on us, then we'll leave now." After speaking, Talmon turned around and prepared to leave.

Upon seeing this, the Gu family members frowned.

At this moment, Devin finally spoke up, "Talmon, you've misunderstood us."

Then, he shot Deniz a look, signaling him to shut his mouth.

"I've invited all of you over this time to discuss the final match in two days."

Talmon stated, "Just say it. Don't beat around the bush."

Devin's expression darkened slightly, but he suppressed his anger and said in a clear voice, "I heard that the final match will be in Frost Valley in the north of the city."

"Frost Valley?"

Talmonn's expression turned slightly grave when he heard the name.

Fade, on the other hand, appeared confused.

Yarrow then explained to him, "Frost Valley is a forbidden land located in the north of South Yan City. It was originally an ordinary valley, but for some reason, the temperature in

that area dropped drastically

thousands of years ago. Finally, it became colder and colder until the place froze into a world of ice." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"The entire valley is covered in ice and snow all year round, and the air is bone-chillingly cold. In addition, all sorts of vicious beasts that have adapted to the environment of ice and snow live there. The strongest of them has even reached the level equivalent to a Stage 9 Soul Refine Realm martial artist, and its strength is extraordinary." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"Of course, because of its unique environment, there are some special herbs and materials in Frost Valley that can be used to make medicines and weapons. Therefore, many people have ventured into Frost Valley to look for all kinds of rare herbs and materials."

"Meaning, if the finals were to be carried out in Frost Valley, not only do we have to guard against human opponents, but we also need to fight against the harsh natural environment and vicious beast in Frost Valley. The difficulty level would be increased significantly."

After hearing what Yarrow had said, Fade nodded slightly and was mentally prepared for the final.

Devin added, "Besides, I also heard that Mr. Goo found a ten-thousand-year-old Eternal Ice Core in Frost Valley not long ago."

"Moreover, he will award the Eternal Ice Core to the winner of the finals."

Even Talmon's expression involuntarily changed when he heard this, revealing a look of surprise on his face.

"He's giving away an Eternal Ice Core as the prize? Is this true?"

Meanwhile, Fade was once again confused.

Talmon explained to Fade, "A ten-thousand-year Eternal Ice Core is a rare ice class treasure that's at the eighth grade of the Human Level. It's very precious."

Upon hearing this, Fade realized the value of the Eternal Ice Core.

After all, treasures were the same as Yuan Seals. They were split into three levels -Heaven, Earth, and Human Levels, ranging from the lowest first grade to the highest eighth grade.

Alyx and the others' Yuan Seals were only at most at the sixth grade of the Human Level, yet they were already considered geniuses in South Yan City. This showed how rare high-level Yuan Seals and treasures were.

Therefore, the eighth grade Human Level Eternal Ice Core could be said to be very precious.

Thinking of this, he could not help but feel excited.

Just then, Devin continued, "My family is determined to obtain this Eternal Ice Core."

"Hence, I hope that Fade will do his best to help Uzair win the finals and get the Eternal Ice Core."

Upon hearing this, the enthusiasm in Fade's heart disappeared, and he felt a chill in his heart as his expression turned cold.

As if sensing Fade's thoughts, Uzair

stepped out with his hands behind

his back and looked at Fade, his long robe swishing as he moved. "My Yuan Seal is a seventh grade Human Level Antiquity Ice Sword. Once obtain the Eternal Ice Core and

merge it with my Yuan Seal, it can upgrade my Yuan Seal by at least one grade, thus reaching the eighth grade of the Human Level. At the same time, it will greatly increase my combat power." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"Of course, don't worry. If you help me win the finals and get the Eternal Ice Core, you'll get a lot of benefits."

Devin looked at Fade and asked, "Do you understand?"

Fade frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "Mr. Goo said that the competition should be fair and just. Even if it's the final round, Uzair and I will still be competitors. Helping my opponent to win the competition is considered cheating!"

Hearing this, Uzair grew a little dissatisfied. He then said, "The rules of the finals are different from that of the previous matches. They are not arena duels, but a scuffle where ten people will enter the Frost Valley together."

"The rules for determining victory or defeat during the finals are very simple. That is, to find the tokens of South Van City that Mr. Goo has specially

hidden in the valley."

"In the end, the champion is the one with the most tokens."

"Hence, you only need to give me the tokens you have found. That'll be enough."

After hearing Uzair's words, Fade finally understood the rules of the final round. However, he still shook his head and said, "I promised to represent the Gu family to participate in the competition to repay the kindness Talmon and Yarrow have shown to me."

"Both of them also promised me that the benefits of participating in the competition will solely belong to me."

Hearing this, Devin turned to look at Talmon and Yarrow with a puzzled expression.

Talmon nodded and said, "That's true. That's what I promised Fade." "Moreover, Fade has helped increase the Gu family' s reputation. I think this is very reasonable."

Uzair looked displeased as he said to Fade with a sarcastic expression, "Do you think you can win in the finals?"

"Why not?" Fade retorted.

Uzair burst out laughing. "Haha, why not! Look at yourself in the mirror. Who do you think you are?"

"Don't think you're that strong just because you've entered the finals. Let me tell you, the true experts had not utilized their full strength in the pre-

match. The final round is where we'll go all out. You're only an amateur, so you're not even worth mentioning in the finals."

Fade replied, "I know my own strength. You'll see how I perform then."

"You..." Uzair was infuriated.

Just then, Devin said, "Tell me, what do you want? As long as it's something my family can offer, I'll definitely..."

Before he could finish, Fade shook his head and said, "I want the ten-thousand-year-old Eternal Ice Lore.'

His words instantly rendered Devin speechless.

After remaining silent for a couple of seconds, Devin shifted his gaze to Talmon and asked, "Talmon, are you sure you want to do this?"

Talmon answered in a deep voice, "I respect Fade's choice. Moreover, a martial arts competition is meant to decide the strongest martial artist. This way of cheating should have long since been banned."

"You..." Devin was furious, but he suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth, "Talmon, this is not only a competition within the city, but also the competition between our family and the Loh family. It is about the gamble of several billion yuan stones between us and them." "Err... I..." Talmon

frowned.
