My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness



The martial artists outside the pathway could not wait any longer.

With a gesture from Howard, the challenge officially started.

Only three people were allowed to enter at a time.

As soon as it began, three martial artists swiftly stepped into the pathway.

Two were ninth grade fighters, while the other one was a sovereign grade fighter.

No matter how quick they were, the moment they stepped into the pathway, their pace slowed as if the air itself was frozen.

Each step felt like they were bearing an immense, crushing weight.

"Ugh!"

"Cough..."

Two ninth grade fighters instantly coughed up blood and were sent flying out of the pathway, just like Timothy.

The ninth grade fighters could only take one step at most.

The two people could not get up at all after they fell down outside the pathway.

One of them was still breathing, but the other was not. He was dead.

Timothy was lucky. He had been injured when he had attempted the challenge stubbornly. The two people had fared worse than him.

The crowd was astonished.

Risking their lives to attempt a challenge was not a small price to pay.

"This is the consequence of disobeying the rule and stubbornly attempting the challenge!" Howard's face darkened as he said, "If anyone wants to do it, you'll face the same fate."

With a wave of his hand, some attendants carried the two people away.

The challenge continued.

This time, everyone felt a little doubtful and stared at each other at a loss.

Dustin remained calm. He stood aside and let the crowd go through first.

He was not in a rush. He stood outside and observed the marks left by Apollo while rethinking his strategies.

Metal Mask was also doing the same.

"Let me give it a try."

Victor chuckled as he walked forward, and he nodded at Howard.

He was a frequent visitor, so Howard nodded in acknowledgment.novelbin

Victor had already attempted to walk through the pathway many times.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his condition, and made his move. He stepped into the pathway.

His face remained unchanged at the first step.

He sweated like a cow at the second.

By the third step, Victor hunched over. He was having a hard time continuing.

"Victor will stop at the fourth step. He will be injured," said the sovereign grade fighter of the Bones family with his arms crossed in front of him. It was not difficult to guess the result.

Victor took another breath again. He looked ahead, chuckled in resignation, and shook his head. He did not plan to take the fourth step at all. He retreated and walked back the way he had come.

"Three steps-I'm already better than I was. It seems I'm destined to never get my hands on the martial arts technique," he muttered. He moved to stand at the side.

He was smart and cautious. He never took unnecessary risks and did the best he could. He had attempted to walk through the pathway many times but had never gotten gravely injured.

Howard looked at him in approval.

Victor treated the challenge as a form of training to further improve himself.

"The highest record in the Sorensen family villa is ten steps, and only one person has ever achieved that. If you can even take seven steps like this young man here, you can pick one thing from the store of the Sorensen family, including Master Apollo's martial arts technique," Howard said loudly. Everyone was surprised.

Apollo's martial arts technique was a rare treasure!

It would help anyone improve steadily!

What surprised them more was that someone had actually managed to make it to seven steps!

Victor, the greatest fighter of Lannopolis, could only take three steps. The difference was huge!

Was he truly so powerful? Or was it because he was a genius?

Timothy's face darkened.

He had only taken the first step and got injured.

"Seven steps?" Metal Mask glanced at Dustin.

At that moment, he vowed to surpass seven steps.

"Since a young man can make it to seven steps, how could we not?" Some of the other experienced martial artists felt confident.

"Phew..."
