"You, what did you... When did I ever teach you that? As a musician, we rely on our hard work and not through these shameful means," Elder Sun replied sharply.
Barrett sneered disdainfully and retaliated, "Teacher, your philosophy has long been outdated."
He continued, "Nowadays, how are musicians going to stand out if they don't have the means or the background? Don't talk to me about talent because there are countless talented musicians who were overlooked in the industry. Besides, even those without any talent would definitely become popular if they have enough resources for funding and promotion."
"Barrett, you... How did you become like this? I..." Elder Sun was so furious that he could not continue.
It should be noted that Barrett was one of Elder Sun's leading disciples. To Elder Sun, he was second only to Susie, the top celebrity in the industry. Initially, he was full of appreciation and expectations for Barrett.
However, he never expected his disciple to be tainted by the entertainment industry. Furthermore, he did not just change drastically but was also willing to sacrifice his junior.
This made Elder Sun extremely angry and disappointed.
He shook his head as he said to Fade and Yuri, "Fade, Yuri, I'm sorry about what happened. I apologize for all the harm that you have suffered."
Following that, Erasmus bowed to both of them and apologized. After that, he turned to walk to the door and called, "Let's go!"
However, Barrett was relieved when he noticed Elder Sun's angry and disappointed looks. He no longer needed to pretend and his eyes turned cold. "Are you leaving? Did you think I would let you?" he shouted.
Hearing this, Elder Sun's expression darkened. Previously, anger and disappointment clouded him but currently, only anger remained. He glared at Barrett and scolded, "What else do you want?"
Barrett put his hands behind his back and replied, "What else do I want? That Chen guy beat up my friends and Young Master An. Are you going to leave without doing anything?"
"Come over immediately and kneel down to apologize to us," Barrett barked.
Young Master An was someone he wanted to approach. Initially, he had invited Young Master An to please him but the incident had brought suffering to Young Master An.
Therefore, Barrett had to make up for it so that Young Master An would not hate him. Therefore, he needed to force Fade and Yuri to apologize. As for his teacher, Erasmus, Barrett no longer cared since Erasmus had made up his mind.
Concurrently, Elder Sun and Yuri were both livid.
Meanwhile, Fade took a step forward and glanced at Barrett coldly as he spoke, "What if we refuse?"
Barrett snorted in reply, "Then, don't blame us for being rude. Let me tell you this, don't ever think about leaving this room if you don't apologize."
"Really?" Fade snorted. Following that, Fade instantly landed a blow on Barrett's face, causing Barrett to bleed and wail as he dropped to the floor.
"You dare hit me? You..." Barrett covered his bloody nose as he cried out of anger and pain.
Another loud bang ensued!
Fade gave Barrett another kick and the latter landed across the room. Barrette's eyeballs almost popped out of his eye sockets from the severe pain.
As soon as the man entered, he immediately greeted Fade enthusiastically, "Mr. Chen!"
At the sight of this man, Barrett's face changed. This man was Troy Huang, the local boss of Bay City and the man who was holding the concert for him.
Concurrently, he was sure that Troy had ruined his concert. Instantly, he gritted his teeth and taunted,
"Chief Huang, can you afford to pay for the loss after crashing my concert?"
Troy glanced at Barrett and replied indifferently, "Haha, you want compensated? Are you nuts?"
"You!" Barrett did not expect a shameless answer from Troy. His expression changed drastically as he screamed, "You are violating the contract! I'm going to sue you!"
"Go ahead!" Troy was not worried and he did not take Barrett's words seriously. Instead, he stood beside Fade with a respectful look on his face.
When Barrett noticed this, he was pissed off. At the same time, he spotted that Young Master An was giving him a wink. Immediately, Barrett felt a little relief and seemed to notice something.
Sure enough, not long after, footsteps approached the door. A stern middle-aged man in suits came in with a gloomy look. Behind the man were eight burly bodyguards in black and it was obvious that the bodyguards were martial artists.
When the man in suits appeared at the door, Laird was instantly excited and he waved and shouted, "Dad, you are here!"
Hearing Laird's greeting, Barrett's eyes lit up with joy. He finally understood the meaning of Young Master An's meaningful look.
