Chapter 2131 Start of a Conflict
Thaddeus Lullaby was Tritus' elder brother.
When he learned that Tritus had suffered great humiliation at Matthew's hands, he had been thinking
about avenging his brother.
Therefore, he naturally had to meet Matthew upon learning that Matthew would also be participating in
the Martial League's registration event.
Still, when he caught sight of the number displayed on the dynamometer, his expression immediately
became scornful.
"Hey, isn't that the country bumpkin from the South, Matthew Larson? Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. 586 pounds? I
can't believe you dared to participate in the competition with such dismal strength. I'm afraid you won't
even survive the first round!"
When his mocking statement rang out, the followers behind him also followed suit and made various
disparaging remarks.
"Honestly, people nowadays tend to believe that they are invincible just because they have some
strength."
"Tsk. I can't believe trash from some remote corners of the world is shameless enough to register
themselves in the competition."
"That's right! Go back to the South!"
The commotion naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd.
The instant they saw the number displayed on the dynamometer, they began to judge and criticize
Matthew too.
The number listed was quite an underachievement indeed.
Generally speaking, those who could not achieve at least 660 pounds would be too ashamed to
register themselves. They would only bring shame to themselves.
Even the registration personnel in charge of registration matters were displeased.
440 pounds might be the standard, but they could not believe somebody who couldn't even achieve
660 pounds dared to participate in the competition. It was an indication that he was overestimating his
abilities.
Even though Matthew was faced with the ridicule coming from those people, he did not react in the
slightest.
He would simply pummel them to death if they encountered each other during the competition. In any
case, the skill of bad-mouthing others and making wild boasts was worthless.
Unfortunately, the three people behind him could not control their tempers.
"F*ck you! Who the hell do you think you are? I dare you to repeat that!"
"Say that again, motherf*cker! I'll destroy you!"
"One more peep out of you, and I'll pull out all your teeth!"
The three of them moved to stand in front of Matthew.
The opposite party also seemed to have decided to target Shawn. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Wow! What can you do even if I repeat myself? You're trash who only achieves slightly more than 660
pounds! Are you from the same village as that piece of trash?"
Those in the know were speechless. How did he manage to make such an accurate guess?
Shawn was already furious in the first place. Combined with the insult from the other party, he instantly
stepped forward and raised his fist to punch the other party in the face.
Matthew suddenly moved and came to stand beside Shawn in the blink of an eye, then he grabbed
Shawn by the wrist.
"The Martial League has a rule. Those who engage in fights outside of the competition will be
disqualified from the competition. If you have an issue with him, resolve your issue on the competition
platform."
Thanks to Matthew's reminder, Shawn instantly returned to his senses.
Damn it! These b*stards were trying to set me up!
"Hey, you! Yes, I'm talking about you, you damn shorty! Weren't you mouthing off the most earlier? Do
you dare to fight me on the platform?"
The young man singled out by Shawn practically exploded with rage.
His height was the greatest sore subject in his life. Hence, his eyes reddened with anger when his sore
spot was mentioned in front of such a large crowd.
"What are you glaring at? Is your surname 'Biscuit'? The one who sells biscuits by the side of the
road?"
When it came to insults, Shawn was no less inferior the moment he put his mind to it.
If the shorty had not been held back by his friends, he would have rushed forward to challenge Shawn
by now.
The tables had turned. Thaddeus' expression darkened when he realized that his plan had been foiled.
The other party was so eager to be punished that Matthew naturally decided to accept their offer.
Just as he was about to agree, a figure abruptly slipped out from the spectating crowd.

"Matthew, you sure made me search for you."
Roxanne's unexpected appearance left Matthew dumbfounded for a moment.
"What is it? Why are you looking for me?"
"My grandfather has spoken. He wants to take you as his Inner Disciple. This is the Invitation of
Apprenticeship."
While she was speaking, she passed the plainly packaged letter in her hand to him.
