Soren Taylor's aura was surging, and he seemed ready to take action!
Emerson Holmes, standing beside him, stepped in front of him and said solemnly, "Even though this Ethan Smith is rather annoying, I have to admit that he is also a genius among the younger generation. We cannot treat him like an ordinary half-step Martial Marquis."
"Geniuses are meant to be stepped on!" Soren Taylor shouted.
"Anything Ethan Smith can do, I, Soren Taylor, can do the same!"
"Well said!" Ethan Smith took a step forward, his aura suddenly bursting forth.
He stared coldly at Soren Taylor and said, "If you want to make a move, go ahead."
"Don't think I'm afraid of you!" Soren Taylor shouted angrily. But just as he was about to take action, Emerson Holmes quickly stood in front of him and forcefully took the blow with his physical strength.
Soren Taylor's eyebrows furrowed slightly and said, "Chairman Holmes, what's the meaning of this?"
