Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1675
“…I see. Gerald Crawford!” replied Gerald as he politely introduced himself.
Nodding in response, Cyril then praised, “Noted, brother Gerald! Still, you were amazing just now!”
“It was nothing, I was simply trying to help the bullied,” replied Gerald calmly. After flashing a subtle smile at Cyril,
Gerald then turned back to look at Yan… only to realize that he had already snuck off!
Well, it wasn’t as though he was all that interested in Yan in the first place. After all, there were many others in the
world just like Yan, and Gerald couldn’t be bothered to teach each and every one of them a lesson.
His train of thought was cut short when he heard Cyril ask, “Brother Gerald, I wonder if you’d be interested in
becoming my friend…?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing no reason not to be, Gerald simply nodded in agreement.
Whatever the case was, the selection process soon officially began. Since they weren’t in any particular rush,
Gerald, Zelig, and Cyril simply took the chance to watch the other participants first.
Standing near the platform, Gerald kept a close eye on the academy’s representatives. It was always good to know
your opponents first before battle, and this was Gerald’s chance to properly analyze their abilities and think of ways
to counter them. Truth be told, Gerald wasn’t planning on only withstanding the three strikes, oh no. Instead, he
wanted to completely defeat his opponent. After all, this was what a strong man should do. Simply having to
withstand three strikes was a little too belittling for Gerald’s tastes.
Either way, Gerald began paying attention to the platform again when a man donning blue robes walked up the
platform. With a folding fan in his hand, the man appeared rather confident.
However, Gerald had to actively hold back from laughing when he saw that man.
‘Who even is this guy? Can just about anyone participate in the selection process? What an eyesore!’ Gerald
thought to himself.
With the sounding of a gong, the first round of testing officially began!
Understanding that the testing process had begun, the man bolted toward the academy’s representative, waving
his folding fan before him the entire time!
However, it was barely a second later when the man was kicked off the platform! He never stood a chance!
Not even bothering to look at the man, Karsten then announced, “Fail! Next!”
Seeing that, everyone who had witnessed what had just happened instantly began discussing the situation. Nobody
had anticipated the academy’s representative to be this strong…!
Despite everyone’s worries, Gerald was as cool as a cucumber. After all, he already knew that the man in blue was
weak before he was even defeated, so the result didn’t really shock him all that much. That man simply never

stood a chance in the first place…
Following that, many other candidates got up the platform as well. However, just like the first man, many of them
ended up getting tossed off the platform in a single strike.
Eventually, Karsten—who had been relaxing on a chair—couldn’t help but shake his head. What a disappointing
selection…
“Next!” shouted Karsten, now growing considerably impatient.
“Why don’t you go next, Brother Gerald!” suggested Zelig.
“Sure, why not?” replied Gerald as he nodded before raising his hand.
Upon seeing how thin Gerald was, many of the participants couldn’t help but think that Gerald would surely get
defeated in a single hit.
Walking up the platform and standing before his opponent, Gerald was now in full view of everyone…
