The Seven Sisters and Their Hidden King-Chapter 340 – Better Get Famous When You’re Young
Chapter 340 - 340 – Better Get Famous When You’re Young
"Stepping on your shoulders to get famous means I should respect you. I think it's appropriate for us to be friends," John said.
What he really meant was clear—he challenged Bruce not out of enmity, but because fame came faster when you stood atop a genius.
And there was no better springboard than Bruce.
"No need for that," Bruce replied, smirking. "But you are interesting. I'll remember you, John."
With that, Bruce cast John one last look, then turned and left the arena with his sword in hand.
John remained calm.
After Bruce disappeared from sight, John lingered a moment longer, then waved smugly to the surrounding crowd and shouted,
"Remember my name—Robust Master, John Lopez!"
The hall fell silent.
Arrogant. Insufferable.
The spectators clenched their fists, wanting nothing more than to knock the grin off his face.
But even Bruce hadn't managed to hurt him. What could they possibly do?
It was a life-and-death duel, and no one expected it to end in a draw.
Bittersweet—but still a spectacular showdown.
The highlight was Bruce himself. For the first time, the crowd had seen the full force of his power, especially that final sword strike, which left an unforgettable impression.
And then there was John—the mysterious young man who had won Bertha's heart—now fully revealed.
Handsome. Resilient. Dangerous.
All of which made him incredibly attractive to the women watching.
But there was something missing.
Blood.
Deep down, every martial artist craved that primal thrill. The tension, the violence, the life-or-death stakes—without bloodshed, it didn't feel complete.
The crowd left the arena disappointed, unable to shake the feeling of something unfinished.
Outside the Martial Arts School
Tony was fuming. "Brother, why didn't you finish it? He's just a Robust Master. Just fight him again! You've got tons of pills!"
"Just a Robust Master?" Bruce scoffed. "If he were a typical Robust Master, sure. But John withstood my strongest blow. Do you really think he's ordinary?
If I have to rely on pills to defeat someone supposedly at the primary stage of the Heaven Realm, then the 'genius' label on my head is nothing but a joke."
Though Bruce wasn't happy about the outcome, he had pride.
Killing John with the help of external power would make the victory hollow.
Besides, something John said stuck with him.
Better get famous when you're young.
Wasn't that how Bruce made a name for himself, too?
He couldn't call John a friend just yet, but he'd definitely remember him.
Tony, on the other hand, was still fuming.
"Ugh, and that smug look on Jacob's face! I wanted to rip his damn skin off!"
Right after the fight, when they left the arena, Jacob had taunted him with a mocking grin.
"I told you, my brother-in-law won't die. Not only that—he didn't even use one percent of his strength."
That infuriated Tony.
The two of them nearly came to blows.
The people around just assumed they were venting post-fight frustration and didn't pay much attention.
Bruce's expression suddenly turned cold.
"This is over. Stir up trouble again, and I'll break your legs."

Tony flinched.
Everyone said the elder brother was like a father—but to Tony, Bruce was even more terrifying than a parent.
At Another Exit of the Martial Arts School
John walked through the crowd, eyes following him from every direction.
He had completely redefined what it meant to be a Robust Master.
People looked at him not with suspicion anymore—but with respect.
He was just a young man, yet his strength had shattered expectations.
For many watching, he was now a symbol of hope.
A path they hadn't considered before now looked like a viable future.
Robust Masters are strong too.
And if John could do it, so could they.
Even the older martial artists were rethinking what was possible.
As John soaked in the complex gazes surrounding him, someone called out his name.
"John!"
It was Hugo, walking toward him.
