Chapter 6 The Finals Begin!

• After a sleepless night, Caleb Keynes, in the early hours of the second day, practiced a set of martial arts in the courtyard before leaving the Keynes family with his mother and younger sister.
• "Son, about that old man's matter, your mother's heart is also complicated. But no matter how you choose, your mother will always stand by your side."
• On the way, Elsa Melville looked seriously at her son. She was torn inside—she didn't want her son to participate in the finals, as the opponents were incredibly strong. She feared that her son would insist on proving himself, just like his father, and she only wished for her son's safety.
• However, Elsa Melville, being a martial artist herself, understood that the old man who visited yesterday wanted her son to go easy on some individuals from their family. Witnessing her son being mistreated, Elsa Melville's heart was filled with resentment. So, now she let her son make his own choice, and no matter what, she would always stand by him.
• "Brother, today is the finals. I heard from Mother that your opponents are very strong. If we can't win, we should run. If you fall asleep again, I will be very sad, brother."
• Tina spoke at this moment, shaking Caleb Keynes' arm. Her beautiful big eyes were full of pleading.
• Caleb Keynes's heart trembled a bit. Looking at his little sister's innocent face and the birthmark on her face, his determined resolve began to waver again.
• "Mother, little sister, I understand your feelings. I won't act recklessly. The Keynes family is my responsibility. There are things I understand!"
• Caleb Keynes spoke earnestly, trying to push aside the chaotic thoughts and continue forward.
• The competition arena today had undergone a major transformation. There were now ten arenas set up. Apart from Caleb Keynes, all the other participants were martial artists of the Elemental or Aerodynamic Realm. To prevent a sudden burst of energy that might harm the surrounding family members and disciples, defensive arrays were added to the arenas.
• Upon reaching the competition arena, Caleb Keynes, after taking his original seat, waited for a while. The entire spectator stand was now filled with people, and on the arenas, martial artists started engaging in battles one after another.
• Caleb Keynes remained silent, attentively watching the matches on the arenas. It wasn't until nearly noon when the referee called Caleb Keynes' name that he silently ascended the arena.
• This time, Caleb Keynes' opponents were a pair of identical twins, both at the Elemental Realm's third level.
• Caleb Keynes didn't recognize them, likely from a family in another city, which surprised him.
• In theory, the Pound family should continue their interference.
• Even if the Pound family refrained from acting, the Victor family should at least be prepared. How could they arrange for him such low-level opponents?
• However, Caleb Keynes didn't dare to be careless. Anyone who could enter the finals couldn't be ordinary.
• Remaining vigilant, Caleb Keynes, as the referee's voice echoed, the two twin brothers exchanged glances, and in a flash, they appeared in front of Caleb Keynes.
• Two fists fiercely struck toward Caleb Keynes' chest. Caleb Keynes tentatively exchanged a couple of moves, feeling astonished.
• Their intentions seemed to be in sync, and it appeared as if they had taken some instantaneous strength-enhancing elixir. Their cultivation swiftly rose from the Elemental Realm's third level to the sixth level and was rapidly ascending.
• Caleb Keynes silently gritted his teeth. After more than ten moves, he gradually found it challenging to defend.
• He could only evade while seeking their vulnerabilities.
• At this moment, the twin brothers were also surprised. They were members of the Victor family, aiming to eliminate obstacles threatening the young master.
• They had used this combined attack technique to defeat many talented individuals and even opponents at the Aerodynamic Realm. The fact that Caleb Keynes persisted for more than ten rounds was astonishing.
• "Kid, with only Cultivation Realm strength, you managed to withstand our attacks for over ten rounds under the pressure of both of us!"
• "However, let me give you a piece of advice. Since our steward has approached you, you should carefully consider your actions. Offending our Victor family will bring you no benefits!"
• "Yes, you better surrender now. Dealing with an ant like you at the Elemental Realm is not worth revealing our trump cards."
• The twin brothers suddenly stopped their attack, looking coldly at Caleb Keynes as they spoke.
• This place was protected by an array, not only isolating the released energy from affecting the onlookers but also blocking the transmission of sound.
• Their statements aimed to make Caleb Keynes aware of his limitations and encourage him to withdraw. Also, they didn't want to use their ultimate move since they had several more battles ahead, and they needed to preserve their strength for eliminating obstacles for the young master.
• "You guys are from the Victor family?"
• Caleb Keynes asked coldly after hearing the twin brothers' words. Looking at the arrogant demeanor of these two brothers, his fists quietly clenched.
• The arrogance of large families, the strong oppressing the weak—these two brothers showcased it vividly!
• "Yes!"
• The twin brothers confirmed proudly. However, after saying so, seeing the intense fighting spirit in Caleb Keynes' eyes and his readiness for another round, they were infuriated.
• This Caleb Keynes was looking down on their Victor family! He was scornful of their brothers!
• The twin brothers no longer held back and directly used their ultimate move. Their cultivation once again soared, reaching the Aerodynamic Realm in an instant.
• "Die!"
• The twin brothers simultaneously roared, throwing powerful punches. The entire arena turned pitch-black, and a huge white figure appeared out of thin air, instantly arriving above Caleb Keynes.
• The twin brothers revealed a cruel smile, about to activate the move to strike Caleb Keynes' head. However, Caleb Keynes suddenly moved. He stepped forward, and two Caleb Keynes appeared in the air.
• The twin brothers were slightly stunned. At this moment, the other Caleb Keynes had already appeared behind them. Caleb Keynes extended two fingers, lightly tapping their backs.
• The twin brothers had no resistance at all and fell straight down.
• "Boom!"
• The entire spectator stand fell into silence.
• Elsa Melville watched her son standing with folded arms, tightly clenching her fists. The shock in her heart was indescribable.
• This was the Shadow Step and Profound Spirit Finger of the Keynes family, both mastered to perfection!
• Caleb Keynes had actually achieved mastery!
• Reckless! When did this kid master the Keynes family's techniques to perfection?
• In the Pound family's box:
• Blake Pound coldly watched Caleb Keynes on the competition stage. His fists were tightly clenched, filled with both shock and resentment. With a loud bang, he smashed the tea table in front of him into pieces.
• "Inform them, Pound family assassins stand by at any time!"
• "Also! Summon the Patriarch!"
• Meanwhile, in the Victor family's box:
• The old man squinted slightly, his gaze piercing as he watched Caleb Keynes. His aged hand gently stroked his beard.
• "Luke Victor, where is the steward?"
• "Back to the teacher, I haven't seen him since last night. Maybe he's busy with something else."
• Luke Victor respectfully bowed to the old man, sharing the information he knew.
• "Now, go out and gather all the information about this kid for me."
• After saying this, the old man fell silent once again, turning his gaze back to the competition arena.
• At this moment, Caleb Keynes had already descended from the stage. Facing the astonished gazes of the crowd, he walked calmly toward his mother.
• "Big brother, you're amazing! Big brother, you won!"
• Tina joyfully shouted, rushing into Caleb Keynes' arms. Her beautiful big eyes were full of admiration.
• "Your name is Caleb Keynes?"
• At this moment, a voice tinged with surprise came from behind Caleb Keynes.
• Caleb Keynes turned around to see a handsome young man with a large following walking casually toward him.
• "I'm Rile Victor. I saw your skills just now, and I appreciate talent. I want you to join me."
• "But let's not get into that now; we will definitely have a fight this afternoon. The princess will also be here. I won't hold back under her gaze. I might beat you badly, but don't hold it against me. After all, you'll be mine in the future."
• Rile Victor's words were casual, as if he had already secured the first place in the afternoon's final.
• Caleb Keynes furrowed his brow deeply, looking at the arrogant demeanor of Rile Victor and the followers who were almost worshipping him. He took a deep breath.
• "I won't hold back either this afternoon."
