Chapter 51 Won’t Stand a Chance
In the third stage, a brawl assessment was conducted with 100 individuals divided into ten groups, engaging in a no–holds–barred melee where being knocked down meant elimination.
The ranking was based on the time of being knocked down.
The last person standing in each group would advance to the final showdown, determining the ultimate rankings.
Collaboration was allowed during the melee.
Osborne’s group consisted of eleven members, with the other ten from different security firms who wouldn’t normally team up.
However, due to Osborne’s outstanding performance in the previous stages, they decided to unite, aiming to eliminate Osborne at the earliest opportunity and ensure his bottom ranking in the third stage.
One of them, ranked sixth in the previous stages, asked with a gloomy expression as they surrounded Osborne, “Which security firm are you from?”
If Osborne hadn’t unexpectedly joined the assessment, he could have easily made it into the top five and had a significant chance to become Clarissa’s bodyguard, enjoying a multimillion–dollar salary. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Therefore, he harbored an unusually strong dislike towards
Osborne.
“I’m not from a security firm,” Osborne replied nonchalantly.
The man paused, then snapped, “So you’re not a pro, yet you’re here trying to snatch our jobs? Well, then don’t blame us for teaming up against you!”
He then challenged, “E–level martial artist, Mark Moore, care to spar?”
The other nine followed suit, introducing themselves as martial artists of Class F.
“Class F martial artists?” Osborne was surprised, as they were all martial artists, albeit mostly at the lowest Class F level, except for Mark at E–level.
Osborne, feeling eager, added, “Are you all martial artists?
“I’m not sure of my level, but I think even if you team up, you won’t stand a chance against me.”
“Arrogant!” Mark and the others exploded in anger.
As the assessment official gave the signal, the brawl began, with all ten rushing towards Osborne.
“You’re going down!”

“In this stage, you’ll only rank at the bottom!”
“Charge!”
“Let’s go!”
On the high platform, Ophelia and Wesley watched intently as the third stage commenced.
“This time, this loser is in for a tough ride!
“I heard these top bodyguards from the ten leading security firms are all martial artists with formidable combat skills.
“Any one of them could easily school Osborne. Now that they’re teaming up, Osborne will definitely be the first to go, ending up at the bottom in the third stage!” Wesley remarked coldly.
Ophelia nodded, wanting to express the same sentiment. Based on her knowledge of Osborne, he couldn’t possibly match these elite bodyguards.
But recalling how Osborne unexpectedly surged ahead in the first stage, she swallowed her words.
“Let’s hope so, or he’ll truly become Ms. Radcliffe’s bodyguard.”
With that thought, Ophelia’s expression turned grim.
On the other side, Donna and Clarissa observed the third stage assessment. Clarissa appeared aloof and indifferent.

However, inwardly, she was worried. When she saw those guys team up against Osborne, she tightly clenched her fists.
She struggled to maintain composure and asked, “Captain Paul, do you think Mr. Augustine can still shine in the third stage?”
Paul chuckled. “It’s going to be tough!
“His ten opponents, at the weakest, are Class F martial artists. The strongest, Mark, hails from the second–ranked Mornic Security Company and possesses the skills of a Class E martial artist.
“United as they are, unless Osborne has the strength close to a Class D martial artist, he won’t stand a chance. It’s likely he’ll be defeated in an instant.”
After Paul spoke, Clarissa grew even more concerned.
Meanwhile, Mark and his ten men finally engaged Osborne. Confidence and arrogance adorned their faces as they moved swiftly like beasts, launching fierce attacks.
Martial artists, also known as super black belts, exceeded the pinnacle of ordinary achievements in major martial arts systems.
Achieving a black belt was considered the highest rank for most people, but surpassing it led to becoming a Class F martial artist.
To the layman, Class F martial artists were already terrifying, with strong physical abilities that could seriously injure
Chapter 51 Won’t Stand a Chance someone with a single punch.
All ten assailants surrounding Osborne were martial artists.
Mark himself was a Class E martial artist.
Their combined might was terrifying, their attacks relentless, enveloping Osborne like a tightly woven net, sealing off all avenues of escape.
However, Osborne remained completely unruffled.
Mark and his cohorts were undoubtedly formidable, but compared to Milo, who had attacked him just two days prior, they paled in comparison.
Milo was a Class C metahuman, and his strength was on par .with that of a Class C martial artist.
If Osborne could hold his own against Milo, why should he fear these opponents?
With composure, he activated Satan’s Eye.
