Chapter 849 Doubt

"W-Why did you get up here? Get down immediately!"

When Antoine saw Alex walking up the stage, he was inexplicably startled. The look in the latter's eyes had caused him to be instinctively fearful.

However, as he was Green Mountain Monastery's monk, he couldn't disgrace the monastery, so he braced himself to yell at Alex.

Nonetheless, Alex didn't stop moving as he continued walking in Antoine's direction with a cold visage.

When Antoine saw Alex's imposing manner, his fright toward Alex intensified. He was almost certain that the young man in his twenties in front of him was no ordinary person.

Ordinary people would usually be very respectful to him, but Alex had regarded him as if he were an insignificant ant, not taking him seriously at all.

As Alex gradually approached, Antoine subconsciously retreated and finally halted when he reached the edge of the stage. "This is Green Mountain Monastery. Are you sure you want to cause trouble here? If you don't leave at once, you'll be making an enemy of Green Mountain Monastery."

Antoine remained reluctant to fight Alex, as the latter's capabilities were unfathomable. He tried using Green Mountain Monastery's reputation to intimidate Alex, hoping he would back down.

The audience below didn't sense anything unusual about Alex. They just couldn't fathom why he had gone up to the stage.

L

The young man who had been knocked off the platform earlier could still vividly picture the terrifying experience earlier. Master Antoine is a monk with divine powers. This man who went up to the stage must be tired of living. Master Antoine told him to leave, but he played deaf and pretended not to hear the warning. If Master Antoine flips out, I'm afraid he'll die.

"Kind sir, please come down! That monk truly has divine powers! Moreover, he's not a kind person either I begged for mercy earlier, but he still didn't let me off the hook. Hurry up and come down, or you'll lose your life!" the young man who was saved by Alex earlier cried out incessantly

He had personally experienced the feeling of being struck down by Mortal Force.

Alex was his savior, and if it weren't for Alex, he would've fallen to his death. He couldn't stand idly by and watch Alex risk his life.

"This man really doesn't know what's good for him, openly challenging Master Antoine."

"That's right! Is there something wrong with his brain?"

Listening to the crowd's remarks about Alex, Daphne sneered. She had long been displeased with Alex because her boyfriend had been siding with that fool to oppose her.

Now that Alex was seeking his own death, Daphne only hoped that Antoine would show no mercy and kill

Alex with one strike.

Imagining the upcoming situation, Daphne almost burst out laughing in excitement. Hurry up! Faster do it! Teach this insolent man a lesson.

Everyone present thought Alex would die horribly for blatantly provoking Antoine. However, only

Antoine knew that he was absolutely no match for the man before him. What should I do? Will I bring shame to Green Mountain Monastery if I run away now? But I can't win the fight either. What should I do now?

While Antoine was at a loss for what to do, Alex spoke.

"I witnessed the whole incident earlier when you knocked the young man off the stage. Can I assume you will treat everyone who challenges you in that same manner?"

Antoine gulped, unsure how to answer Alex's question. After pondering for a moment and replaceing no better excuses, he could only nod nervously.

"All right. In that case, I'm now doubting your abilities as well. I'll stand one meter away from the edge of the stage. If you can knock me off the platform, that will prove your capabilities. However, if you fail to do so, it'll be my turn to return the favor to you."
