Chapter 412 Too Slow
Although Jesse was furious, he sat down and ate lunch without saying anything further.
“Mr. Wagner, your son mentioned something called ‘Martial Arts Gathering’ earlier. What is that?” Jared
asked curiously.
“Martial Arts Gathering is an annual event held by all the martial arts schools in Nuthana and Jazona.
The main purpose of the event is to allow the young martial artists to get together and spar with each
other. In order to motivate them further, winners will be rewarded with pills and precious herbs as prizes.
The Herb Palace is the one hosting the event and providing the prizes. There will also be tons of magical
items and pills being sold at the venue of the event. That’s Herb Palace’s marketing strategy to promote
their products. As the number of participants increased over the years, so did the amount of incredibly

“Oh? I didn’t know such events existed! May I participate in it as well?” Jared grew interested all of a
sudden.
“Of course, you can! Any martial artist in Nuthana and Jazona below the age of thirty-five is allowed to
participate. Unfortunately, old men like us can only watch from the side! However, I doubt any participant
would even stand a chance at winning if you were to participate in it, Mr. Chance!” Luke replied with a
wry smile.
Jared chuckled. “Haha! You give me too much credit, Mr. Wagner!”
Jesse simply rolled his eyes in disdain when he heard that.
“When will this Martial Arts Gathering be held?” Jared asked.
“Um…” Luke went into deep thought, but he couldn’t seem to recall the date. He then turned toward
Jesse and asked, “Hey, Jesse, how many days left till the Martial Arts Gathering?”
“A week!” Jesse replied without even looking up at him.
“You little sh*t…” Luke glared at him before flashing Jared an apologetic smile.
After lunch, Luke requested for Jared to teach Jesse a thing or two about martial arts. Unable to bring
himself to say no, Jared could only head over to the Wagner family’s training hall with Luke.
He had already predicted that Luke was being polite and respectful toward him because he had a favor
to ask.
Upon arrival at the training hall, Luke ordered, “Jesse, show Mr. Chance one of your forms so that he can
give you some pointers!”
Although reluctant, Jesse had no choice but to do as told.
He then got into a low stance before stomping into the ground with his foot. Everyone in the area could

“Mr. Jesse really is a Master of internal energy! How impressive!” Clyde exclaimed happily.
The other servants of the Wagner family complimented Jesse as well, much to his delight.
Jesse then continued the demonstration of the Extreme Fist form, sending strong gusts of winds that
could be felt up to a few feet away. Many deep footprints could be seen on the floor by the time he
completed the form.
“Please give him some pointers, Mr. Chance,” Luke said respectfully after Jesse had finished his
demonstration.
Jared nodded. “The strength and ferocity of Extreme Fist form are indeed very impressive. Unfortunately,
you have sacrificed your speed for power. That form was way too slow. Remember, there’s no point in
hitting that hard if you can’t land those strikes at all.”
Luke nodded in agreement after hearing that. Jesse’s strikes were very powerful, but they were slow
because he deliberately put a lot of power behind each strike.
