Chapter 148 Martial Arts Competition (1/2)
The swarthy teenager had tousled hair and a look of decadence and sin in his manner. But his eyes held a darkly dangerous and indifferent expression. Anyone who held his gaze would shrivel backward with fear.
Keeping his eyes on the lad, Jack walked up to Kevin and asked, ”What the hell is Bruce doing here? I thought this bastard went insane and got locked up.”
”Who the hell knows? The freak defeated my brother in the tournament three years ago. His bloodline force was awakened, and he turned into an ape. With that, he unleashed a formidable power. I heard that the brat's father is from an alien race from the border. So he is a real bastard,” Kevin replied. As he spoke about the teenager, his voice was laced with both fear and rage.

Kevin snorted. ”He prevailed last time because my brother's fifth layer of bloodline hadn't been awakened. But I'm not him. I look forward to seeing what this bastard's capable of now,” he said coldly, ready to unleash all his power if his opponent was Bruce.
”Jack, if your opponent is Bruce, you must keep your eyes open. Don't push yourself too much,” the chief of the Yu Family urged.
