Edmund wasn't worried about whether Lucas could beat Julian or not.
He said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Gray, with your current strength, the Peerless Martial Association is no match for you at all. When the time comes, you will be the lord of both California and Oregon, holding the power of hundreds of first-class families in your hands. With such a force, even the eight giants of DC won't dare to treat you with contempt!
"I'm really looking forward to October 15th. Haha!"
There was joy all over Edmund's face, but Lucas wasn't as optimistic as him.
"I'm afraid this competition won't be that simple."
When Edmund heard this, the smile on his face faded, and he asked solemnly, "Did you discover something?"
Lucas shook his head without any further explanation.
In fact, he didn't hold any evidence in hand, but his inherent intuition told him that everything that had happened lately was extremely unusual.
