Chapter 92 The Confusion of Judge

Two days passed quickly. Today was the day of Heart of the Earth's exhibition in Enssea. At 10 AM, Billy, Casey, and Judge drove to Enssea. As for Derek, he had already returned there two days ago to work on the invitation cards.

"Brother, is Derek's family from Enssea?" Judge asked after starting the car. He didn't know much about Derek since they weren't close.

"No," Billy shook his head. "He's from the Hines family in the capital."

"Oh?" Judge was a little surprised. "Then how did he settle down in Enssea?"

"A few years ago, there was chaos within the Hines family and his father were expelled. He almost died at the hands of assassins sent by his clan." Billy responded.

"I see. But he's doing pretty well now, World Group is already ranked top three in Enssea and on par with second place." Judge said with slight surprise.

"Don't be ridiculous! Don't you see who's supporting him behind the scenes?" Casey said sarcastically.

"What do you mean?" Judge paused slightly. "Brother, it couldn't be you behind Derek?"

"Of course!" Casey replied again.

"I get it now! No wonder how he managed to grow World Group so big in just a few short years!"

"Derek has many abilities and I only provided him with some funds, everything else related to business was done by himself." Billy explained.

"Oh, by the way, brother, I heard that both Azure Fang and Frostblade recently broke through to get prowess of a grandmaster-level Battle God!" Judge suddenly remembered this.

"When are you going to give me some pointers so I can catch up with them? Otherwise, they'll just laugh at me again!"

"They're both martial arts fanatics. Besides solving cases, all they do is practice. Unlike you who spends so much time on other things. If you don't fall behind, who will?" Billy gave him a quick glance.

"Well, that's true. They are a match made in heaven, both only care about practicing all day long," Judge commented. "But I work hard too! It's just that I always get stuck at this bottleneck and can't break through it. It's driving me crazy!"

"Martial arts requires gradual progress and avoids impatience. Haste makes waste." Billy responded calmly. "The level of cultivation complements martial skills and techniques. An increase in level can enhance the power of martial skills and techniques, while an improvement in martial skills also plays a crucial role in cultivating levels. Forget about breaking through for now, focus on mastering 'Cold Moon' intermediate section until perfection, you'll make a breakthrough."

"Cold Moon" was divided into three parts: initial, intermediate and final sections, which corresponded to different levels of cultivation. If one tried to practice beyond their level forcibly it would backfire. Only those at the rank of a Battle God could control "Cold Moon" intermediate section. Therefore, only the "five sharp blades", the five top-notch SHADOW members, were allowed to train while others could only practice the initial section.

"I see!" Judge nodded vigorously with determination flashing across his eyes as he turned towards Casey sitting next to him.

"Casey, what rank have you reached? Can you tell us?" asked Judge.

"What do you think?" Casey smiled faintly.

"At least a grand master level?" Judge pondered briefly before speaking up again.

"You underestimate Casey too much!" Billy chuckled lightly.

"The Vice Commander of the mighty Army of Bloodshadow, if he were still only a Battle God by now, he would have been kicked off this position by Azure Dragon and his crew!"

Judge felt shocked.

Later, an envious and jealous expression appeared on his face as he said, "That's just sick!"

After 1 PM, they parked the car in front of a skyscraper at the entrance of Enssea Center, which was the headquarters building of World Group.

"Mr Gardner!"

As soon as the three people got off the car, around five hundred employees wearing World Group uniforms simultaneously bowed on the square, creating a deafening roar.

"This dead fat guy always likes to play tricks!" Casey commented.

Immediately after, Derek was seen running over excitedly, followed by a group of corporate executives.

"Mr Gardner, welcome to World Group!" He came forward and bowed deeply, with an extremely respectful tone. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

All the employees of World Group were stunned by their boss's attitude to their guests. They all knew that Derek had a status and position in Enssea that was not inferior to the heads of the four major families. They rarely saw Derek Hines being so respectful to anyone.

"Next time I'll make you lose weight until you're under 100 pounds with these tricks!" Billy glared at him.

"I just wanted you to feel the enthusiasm of the people of Enssea." Derek grinned and then greeted Casey and Judge. Then he bowed and made a gesture of invitation, "Mr Gardner, Casey and Judge, please come in!"

Soon, they arrived at Derek's office on the top floor. The office was over a thousand square meters with floor-to-ceiling windows on one side that offered a view of the city.

"Tsk tsk, Derek, you're really extravagant!" After sitting down in the sofa area with everyone else, Judge smacked his lips and spoke up.

"If you likes it I can prepare one for you too." Derek grinned.

"I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy such luxury." Judge responded with a sigh.

"Did you get the invitation card?" Billy picked up his tea cup from in front of him and took a sip.

Derek picked up four invitation cards from his big desk and placed them on the coffee table. Then he handed an iPad to Billy from beside him saying, "Mr Gardner, this is material from Baroness Jewelry, Heart of Earth belongs to this company. Baroness Jewelry is an industry under the Gater family overseas which has great power."

Billy nodded slightly before taking the iPad to look at it himself

"Mr Gardner, I've had contact with their people but their attitude is very firm. Heart of Earth only does exhibitions, they don't sell outside." Continued Derek

"I don't believe there's anything money can't buy! If ten billion isn't enough then twenty billion, if twenty billion isn't enough then fifty billion. They'll agree eventually, won't they?" Judge replied

confidently.

"The total assets owned by the Gater family are estimated to be over trillions so they probably won't care about this amount." Said Derek lightly laughing.

"Wow, so rich?" Judge was surprised.

"What time does the exhibition start?" Billy asked after glancing at the materials.

"4 o'clock in the afternoon." Replied Derek replied.

"Let's go check it out on site." Said Billy.

"Alright."

After chatting for a while longer, the three of them went downstairs and had a simple meal at a restaurant next to the company. Then, they drove towards the east side of Enssea city.
