Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

With Andrew's guidance, Logan's confidence locked into place. He did not care how strong Ryder's kicks were and swung his arms, lifted his legs, and kept blocking every strike that came his way. His body burned with pain, but the wild grin on his face only grew wider.

"Andy's here, and if a mutt from the Ulrich family can defeat me, I'll take on your family name!" Logan's rage was building wave after wave.

As the future head of the Keller family and a member of the Five Apex Families' leading line, his pride had never been small.

Only in front of Andrew and George would he act goofy and shameless. He had no choice because one was his father, who had him completely under control, and the other was a sworn brother who outclassed him in every way.

Even though Logan was older, he had always genuinely respected Andrew from the heart. However, he never took people like Ryder seriously.

Compared to the Keller family, the Ulrich family was a joke. Outwardly, he might have seemed easygoing, even rough around the edges, but deep down, George had trained him from a young age and guided him every step of the way.

If his temper and abilities were not up to par, that would be truly shocking. When it came to arrogance and dominance, Logan was every bit as ruthless as any of the other elite heirs, like Elon.

It was only because of the Keller family's strict household rules and Andrew's constant presence keeping him in check that he rarely had a chance to show off.

Finally, Ryder's leg techniques began to weaken as his strength ran out, and his fierce attacks noticeably faltered.

Andrew said coldly, "Now you should know what to do without me teaching you, right?"

Logan grinned savagely. "Of course I do!"

The principle of striking when your enemy is down was something every martial artist understood.

In a swift counterattack, Logan pressed forward aggressively, internal energy surging through his body as he launched a devastating blow toward Ryder's head.

Ryder raised his hands to defend himself, managing to hold his ground reasonably well.

However, with Logan seizing the initiative and attacking so ferociously, he could only retreat while trying to defend. His punches were holding up fine, but his footwork could not keep pace.

After just two exchanges, Ryder's steps became chaotic, and he lost his composure completely.

Logan roared in fury, "You piece of shit, take this!"

His palm sliced straight at Ryder's neck, and his face turned bright red from the pain.

Xavier and Leslie both shouted in alarm, "Stop!"

Yet, it was useless. Logan was not

backing off, and he was out for

blood. He grabbed a fistful of

Ryder's hair and pressed his fingers together like a blade, aiming straight for Ryder's eyeballs.

With blood at the corners of his mouth, Ryder screamed, desperate, "Colonel Haywood, help me!"

Xavier roared, "Logan! You've gone too far. Back off!"

He sprang into action, lashing out with a kick aimed at Logan's wrist.

Andrew immediately moved in response, wearing a cold smile. "Colonel Haywood, I'm your opponent. You're being pretty unsportsmanlike, jumping in so eagerly like that."

With just a small tug, he diverted Xavier's whipping leg off-course. Now that no one was in Logan's way, his fingers were just inches from stabbing into Ryder's eye socket.

Ryder trembled all over, his face drained of color. "Mr. Keller, you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Logan delivered two sharp slapse across his face. "You worthless piece of trash! Give you an inch and you take a mile! Keep pushing me and I'll bury you-now get lost!" noveldrama

With a harsh kick to Ryder's chest, he sent the man flying backward.

Ryder spat blood everywhere, his spirit completely broken.

Logan dusted off his hands with a vicious expression. "Go practice for another ten years, and

remember you're nothing but a mutt from the Ulrich family! In the eyes of the Keller family, you're absolutely nothing!"

Ryder's body was beaten, his spirit crushed. Worst of all, he was humiliated. Letting out a strangled cry, he fainted on the spot, his body twitching even as he lay unconscious.

Leslie, Xavier, and the others stared at each other in stunned silence.
