[Chapter 121]
It took Luna nearly half an hour before she finished speaking.
The majority of the members in the audience were in a dumbfounded state, just like David.
These male animals had only been attracted here because of the popularity of the Three Campus Belles. A s for learning martial arts? In these times, it was a much safer choice to make money.
David was rather impressed with Luna. She was obviously preaching to deaf ears, but she still managed t o speak with such conviction for such a long time. It was not a feat that any ordinary person could accomplish!
"I'll open the floor for questions now. Feel free to answer any questions you may have, and I will resolve them immediately!" Luna said as she sat down on the podium with her feet crossed.
"President Shoron, I would like to ask, do grandmasters still exist today? Isn't this something that only appears in television shows and novels?" A male student asked as he stood.
"Grandmasters, in reality, are different from the grandmasters you see on TV or in books. It's something that you will only be exposed to after you reach a certain level of cultivation in your martial arts training. S o, you wouldn't understand it even if I explained things to you now," Luna replied.
"President Shoron, will people like us ever be able to reach a high level of cultivation in our martial arts training?"
"It will be difficult! Martial arts is not something that can be mastered overnight, it requires constant practice from a young age. Even the most talented person will face limits in what can be achieved if they miss out on the best cultivation period.
"President Shoron, I heard a rumor that you and President Jackson, the most handsome guy in SRU, are a couple. Moreover, President Jackson has also put out word that he will not allow any guy to approach you. May I know if you acknowledge this relationship?" A guy asked bravely.
Everyone present fell silent upon hearing his question. They all wanted to know how Luna would answer this question!
It was obvious that everyone was curious about this.
"Sorry, I will not answer any questions unrelated to martial arts! If there aren't any other questions, I will b e performing a live demonstration."
The chaotic atmosphere of the venue showed that everyone was not satisfied with Luna's answer.
Just then, two more people, one male, and one female walked in from the lobby. After hurriedly sweeping their gazes over the room, they walked over to David. The man's knees buckled together as he knelt beside David.
"Mr. Liddell, I'm sorry, I should not have offended you. I hope you can forgive me and not hold a grudge against me if that's alright with you? Can you please help put in a good word for me with the Luther family?" Leo pleaded as he knelt next to David.
After offending Sandy on that Friday night, the Luther family had begun attacking all the businesses his parents owned the very next day.
The Luther family was so powerful in River City that all the businesses his family owned became bankrupt almost instantly after their attacks.
None of the connections his parents had gotten in touch with the past two days had been able to do
anything. They did not know yet that it was because their son had offended the daughter of the Luther family
He had not dared to tell his parents the truth either, for he had no idea what his parents would do to him!
However, he had lost everything.
His parents had gone bankrupt, and the bank wanted to collect their debts. Now, almost everything of value in the house was sold. They had even lost their house.
Now, the life his family led was even worse than the life of the beggars on the street. His parents' hair had gone gray overnight, and they were even considering taking their own lives to solve the problem.
After thinking about it, he determined that, based on Sandy's respectful attitude to David that night, David was the only person who could save his family.
If David helped him plead to the Luther family for mercy, then his family would no longer be facing a crisis.
Thus, he dragged Sarah along with him to meet David and even made a promise to Sarah. If David agreed to help plead mercy for his family and resolve the crisis they were facing, he would marry her immediately.
Honor was no longer important to him. If he could resolve the crisis his family was facing, all he needed t o do was switch schools to continue being the high-and-mighty Leo.
If the crisis could not be resolved, what his family would be facing was a life that not even a beggar would want.
Leo's kneeling to David upon entering the room piqued the interest of many. Everyone gathered around, trying to figure out what was happening.
"Huh! Isn't that Leo?" Someone in the hall managed to recognize Leo.
Leo was somewhat well-known at South River University. After all, he was a trust fund baby!
He might not be the richest, but he was the most arrogant. 'Wow! It is Leo! Is he kneeling before someone in front of so many people? Who's this person?"
Everyone directed their gaze onto David, wanting to know what sort of person had managed to make Leo get on his knees in public.
Leo felt his face burning when he realized he had been recognized. He had never been this humiliated in his entire life.
However, he had no choice. The fate of his entire family was in David's hands.
"Leo Tate! I didn't do anything to you, did I? What's the point in you kneeling before me and begging me?" David said slowly as he stood.
