Chapter 1045: Chapter 721: Showing Off Love [24] Introducing: Nora Scott, Your Martial Uncle’s Grandmaster (Part 2)

Upon seeing this scene, Mr. Bay’s previously stern and solemn expression instantly darkened like the bottom of a pot.

The outer disciples he had trained were supposed to be outstanding, yet why were they cowering like turtles in front of a woman?!

He glared at the second senior brother, "What’s going on?"

The second senior brother was also baffled.

As soon as he saw Nora Scott and Pedro Langley coming over, he went to the backyard to find Mr. Bay and the others. He had no idea what happened afterward.

He glanced at one of the people present.

The person understood and immediately walked over, whispering a report to them: "A newcomer just learned a few moves with the Nine-section Whip and wanted to show off. He almost hit that guy. Nora stopped the whip and asked the newcomer to apologize. He refused, and it led to some argument..."

After pausing, he licked his lips and continued, "Then, she showed a move with the Nine-section Whip, and in an instant, she... uh, intimidated us. And that’s it."

They all knew how much truth there was to the supposed "intimidation."

Looking at their timid appearances, it was clear they truly fought and were completely defeated.

Then—

Mr. Bay’s expression grew colder.

"Master!"

"Teacher!"

...

At this moment, the students finally noticed Mr. Bay’s presence and greeted him sparsely.

"..."

Mr. Bay’s expression was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The students immediately fell silent.

After a few seconds of pause, Mr. Bay strode over, and the students quickly dispersed.

He walked straight to Nora and Pedro.

After sizing up Nora, he frowned and asked, "I heard you’ve been practicing martial arts since childhood?"

"So what?"

His attitude wasn’t good, so understandably, Nora’s response wasn’t polite either.

"You’re good with the Nine-section Whip," his gaze lingered on her whip for a second, and Mr. Bay then asked, "Is your master an expert with the Nine-section Whip?"

"He doesn’t use it." Nora casually twirled the whip in her hand, answering lazily, "I learned it casually."

Hmph.

So she’s just playing around. If she really had a master skilled with the Nine-section Whip, he might have looked at her differently.

After a brief pause, he asked again, "Who is your master?"

"My master is indeed quite famous." Nora crossed her legs, speaking slowly and deliberately, "But some people are so ignorant, they might not have heard of him."

"You—"

Being so blatantly called "ignorant" by a junior, Mr. Bay nearly lost his composure.

In the live stream:

[What the hell??? This is the first time I’ve seen someone show off like this!!!]

[Learned something! If you haven’t heard of me, it’s because you’re ignorant!]

[...Awesome.]

[Is this for real??]

[Hahaha, why does this hit my funny bone so perfectly?!]

[I can see that Nora’s master isn’t impressive, so she’s just making things up. Anyway, her persona now is—"I’m awesome and well-connected. If I’m not impressive or well-connected, it’s because you’re unknowledgeable."]

...

No one took Nora’s words seriously.

Even her fans were laughing it off, thinking she was just joking.

—Because, honestly, it sounded too much like a joke.

"Hmph."

Mr. Bay couldn’t hold it any longer and let out a cold snort.

At this moment, the students standing in a circle couldn’t help but speak up—

"If you have the guts, just say it. Let’s see if it’s your master’s reputation that’s lacking or if we’re just ignorant."

"Yeah! If you can’t even say it, don’t act so high and mighty!"

"If you’re bluffing this much, watch out for a downfall!"

...

Mr. Bay looked at Nora coolly, "Go ahead, say it. I want to see if I’m really as ignorant as you claim."

"I’m pretty low-key." Nora fiddled with the Nine-section Whip, raising her eyebrows slightly and curving her lips, "Relying on my master’s prestige to bully others doesn’t seem right, does it?"

"..."

One moment she calls people "ignorant," and the next she claims to be "low-key."

It’s like she’s the only one allowed to speak.

Blah blah blah.

She gets to say it all.

In the live stream:

[?? When has Nora ever been low-key?]

[To be fair, Nora was indeed quite low-key before revealing her identity as Zero. But this time, I don’t believe it.]

[Convinced. Just have some thick skin, and the whole world has to call you grandparent. Right?]

[This is too much! Mr. Bay’s attitude wasn’t great, but he’s at least a martial arts senior. Nora, as a junior, not only beat up a bunch of his students but is now arguing with Mr. Bay. It’s really too much!]

[Too much. +1]

...

"Are you afraid of losing face by not daring to mention your master’s name, or are you afraid of embarrassing your master?" Mr. Bay, being repeatedly provoked, no longer bothered being polite and directly lowered his gaze, "You should leave. Our Martial Arts Hall doesn’t welcome someone who’s afraid to mention their master’s name. As for your show program, Tengfe Martial Arts School definitely won’t choose you. Let’s stay out of each other’s way."

"Heh."

Nora let out a low chuckle in her voice.

She placed her right leg, which had been resting on her left knee, down, then stood up and casually tossed the Nine-section Whip onto a chair.

Turning around, she glanced at Pedro, intending to leave.

Tengfe Martial Arts School...

She really couldn’t care less about it.

[Show off once and leave in a hurry. Very realistic.]

[Don’t be a coward, Fairy Nora. Reveal your master’s name and slap Mr. Bay in the face! Aren’t you known online as the "Queen of Clapbacks"?]

[Leaving already??? Beauty Nora, this isn’t like you!! If you don’t clap back, I’m turning against you!]

[Already turned against. This time, Nora really couldn’t "hold" it, quite embarrassing.]

...

Meanwhile—

A figure ran in from outside.

"Master! Sir Bay is here!"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone in the front courtyard, including the program staff, was shaken.—Nora Scott and Pedro Langley were the exceptions.

The live stream got excited as well.

[Oh damn, he’s here! He’s here!]

[Haha, here comes the big shot! Is this the clash of two intangible cultural heritage inheritors?!]

[With Nora’s achievements, she could actually rival Sir Bay. But she just insists on seeking validation in the martial arts circle. Why is she so keen on seeking validation? Does she have the guts to show off in front of Sir Bay?!]

[I hope Nora has the nerve to repeat what she said and see how Sir Bay deals with her!]

[Ran a bit slow and bumped into Sir Bay. Does Nora still dare to show off?]

...

From outside, a silhouette walked in.

The white-haired elder, however, walked briskly, full of spirit and vitality.

Everyone who saw him couldn’t help but lower their gaze by three inches.

But—

Seeing Nora, he was first stunned, then his eyes lit up, and he immediately spoke: "Master Scott! What brings you here?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The sky fell.

Thank you.
