Chapter 1413 Dazed
“Howard.” At that moment, the three people who had talked to Jared walked over as well. Howard sized
up the leader of the party of three and said disdainfully, “Jace, I didn’t think you’d be here.”Taking in
Howard’s facial expression, Jace merely smiled faintly in response. “I certainly cannot let slip this
wonderful opportunity. I consider myself very fortunate to join Jared and witness his capabilities this
time. Jared is the leader of the Sage Leaderboard now, as well as the most outstanding martial artist
among the younger generation. He outshines almost all the newer-generation geniuses in the martial
arts world.”
Despite Jace’s bootlicking, Jared remained unfazed.
Nevertheless, Jared felt Jace’s name sounded familiar, but he could not recall where he had heard it
from.

Howard sneered while listening to Jace’s flatteries. “Why didn’t you praise Jared as the most

Leaderboard when you published the challenge invitation on the martial arts forum in the past?”
Upon hearing that, Howard instantaneously remembered the person who mentioned he wanted to
challenge him in a fight on the martial arts forum was that man standing before him at that moment.
Jace immediately felt a little awkward after Howard questioned him. “I was merely kidding at that time. I
am not qualified to be Jared’s opponent with my abilities.”
Howard snorted before dragging Jared along and moved to one side, seemingly unwilling to entertain
Jace and the others further.
“Jared, you should steer clear of Jace in the future. He’s easily swayed toward whoever is in power and
is always scheming something,” Howard reminded.
Jared merely smiled faintly. “I don’t know him, nor am I interested in getting acquainted with him.”
As Jared spoke to Howard, a commotion suddenly erupted among the crowd. Immediately afterward,
the horde of people automatically stepped aside to clear a path.
Jared caught sight of a beautiful girl with a heavenly presence ambling into the crowd.
Many people gaped at her because of her extraordinary temperament. They were astonished when
they sensed her aura, which suggested she was a Martial Arts Marquis.
That acknowledgment shocked Jared. I can’t believe a girl as young as her is already a Martial Arts
Marquis. This is incredible!
Just as he was about to ask Howard about the girl’s identity, he noticed the latter gawking at her and
was so close to drooling from his open mouth.
“Howard, Howard…”
Jared gently nudged Howard a couple of times before the latter regained his senses.
Howard hurriedly wiped the corner of his mouth. His eyes gleamed as he said, “Jared, the Trial is going
to be fun this time. Do you know who she is?”
Jared shook his head. He did not recognize that girl.

“Her name is Astrid Gunderson. She’s the prized daughter of the Gunderson family and a certified
genius, having achieved the rank of Martial Arts Marquis at nineteen years old. Astrid is probably the
strongest girl among the younger generation of female martial artists in the Jadeborough martial arts
world. Not only is she highly gifted, but she’s also gorgeous, not to mention her divine presence. In the
past, many scions from Jadeborough were captivated by her and constantly dueled one another to win
her favor. However, Astrid committed herself to isolated cultivation afterward for many years. Only then
did everyone gradually grow less fervent about her. Unexpectedly, she’s here to participate in the Trial
today!”
Howard’s excitement intensified as he elaborated while fixating his gaze on Astrid the entire time.
All those participants of the Trial present were either descendants of powerful sects and respectable
families or prominent figures among the younger generation of martial artists. All of them widened their
eyes and stared at Astrid following her advent.
At that moment, Jace took the lead to greet Astrid. “Ms. Gunderson, I didn’t expect you to be done with
your cultivation already!”
Astrid nodded at Jace courteously. “It’s been a few years since we last met, and you’re already the
leader of the Sage Leaderboard.”
