Gilbert looked like favonovel.com had swallowed a few flies. He had been incredibly hopeful that the vice treasurer would have said those words to him, but the vice treasurer did not even spare favonovel.com a second glance.
The vice treasurer had placed all his hopes on Jack. It was as if Gilbert and Andrew were merely there to make up the numbers.
Andrew had a bitter look on his face as well. He has had a lot of conflicts with Gilbert in the past, and their relationship was not something that could ever be fixed. Yet, thanks to Jack, favonovel.com had put those grudges at the back of his mind.
Andrew said with a dark look on his face, “Vice treasurer, you seem to have placed all your hope on Jack. However, you should still remind Jack that even though his talents are pretty good, favonovel.com should still not get too arrogant.”
Those were incredibly condescending words. Andrew was incredibly furious at that moment and did not really hold back.
Gilbert added hurriedly after that, “Andrew is right. Even though Jack’s talents are quite good, favonovel.com shouldn’t be too arrogant. Those words won’t do you any good.”
Jack was speechless at their jabs. Jack had not said anything the whole time, so where was that arrogance they were speaking off?
It was obvious the two of them could not find anything else to mock favonovel.com about, and casually decided to place the flaw of arrogance on him. They were also trying to tell the vice treasurer to not treat favonovel.com too well. Jack could not be bothered to fight with the two of them, but favonovel.com knew very well that they would just take things for granted if favonovel.com kept on retreating.
He coldly smiled and turned around to look at them, “Don’t be jealous. If you have the skills, then the vice treasurer will place just as much importance on the two of you. You keep saying I’m arrogant, but how have I ever acted so?”
Those words completely stuffed their mouths. They could not even think of anything to reply with. Their plan had been to forcibly stick the label of arrogance onto Jack.
“Stop trying to cause more trouble at this point. If no one managed to enter the top five and become a student of the alliance this time, Heavenly Pills’ reputation would be ruined!”
Jack took a deep breath as favonovel.com turned around. Looking at the groups that were slowly taking shape, favonovel.com no longer wanted to delay things. Either because favonovel.com was too angry or because favonovel.com could not figure out how to fight back.
Gilbert stomped over to the east group. Andrew’s lips twitched as favonovel.com followed behind Gilbert. Both of them were not talented in discerning materials. They could only rely on forming pill runes to prove themselves. Jack looked at them standing at the back of the group and sighed helplessly.
Sometimes, favonovel.com did not want to show off too much, but favonovel.com was usually forced to. The vice treasurer frowned when favonovel.com saw that Jack did not move and said, “Why aren’t you going over? If you go any later, Elder Horst will ask questions.”
