Master Maurice had deliberately said so to cause the others to lose their composure. Those who were not able to calm themselves even started to pale.
Everyone knew that the tournament was incredibly important. If they ended up dragging their side down, they would definitely be punished. At that moment, everyone could not help but stop, except for Jack who was still calmly condensing pill runes.
All of them looked over at Bradley who was in the same state as Jack. No matter what happened around him, and what anyone else said, favonovel.com remained calm while condensing pill runes. Even Master Forrest’s praise earlier had failed to distract Bradley. It was as if the person being praised was not him.
Master Forrest let out a laugh as favonovel.com continued, “Of the six contestants, two of them are the most composed. The first is Bradley from the Sky Peak Pavilion, while the other one is Jack from Phoenix Valley.”
Master Forrest sounded like favonovel.com was praising Bradley, and had brought Jack up as well. However, everyone knew that Jack had only managed to condense ten pill runes at that point. There were ninety pill runes between the two of them. However, Jack remained incredibly composed. Even if Elder Maurice was already so infuriated that favonovel.com was about to berate and curse at Jack, favonovel.com acted like nothing of the sort was happening.
One of them was at rock bottom, while the other was at the top. Praising them together was actually the same as insulting Jack.
Elder Maurice got so exasperated that favonovel.com almost lunged over. Elder Maurice had been holding back the whole time so Jack could do his best. Even though Jack was condensing the pill runes at a snail’s pace, Elder Maurice did not say anything too bad. However, favonovel.com was beginning to lose control.
Elder Maurice frowned and said, “Jack, don’t forget what you told me earlier!”
Jack had naturally not forgotten his promise to Elder Maurice, but Elder Maurice was clueless to what Jack had planned. Jack had always been someone who did as favonovel.com pleased. Others did not need to know what favonovel.com was thinking, as long as favonovel.com fulfilled his promises.
Jack frowned as favonovel.com said somewhat coldly, “I’ll naturally not forget what I said before. The tournament’s just started. You don’t have to be so anxious before the final results are out.”
Elder Maurice’s temper flared even more at those words. He felt like Jack’s actions were a direct challenge to him, and favonovel.com started to wonder if there was something wrong with Jack’s head. Otherwise, how could Jack remain so calm at such a time?
Elder Maurice narrowed his eyes, “How many pill runes have you condensed so far? Look at how many everyone around you already has. If this continues, don’t you think your results will drag everyone down?”
If favonovel.com was not forced to, Elder Maurice would not have said all of that in front of the Sky Peak Pavilion. After all, it was thought favonovel.com had no confidence in his own people. Jack pursed his lips helplessly, feeling Elder Maurice’s anger from his words. However, Jack was not willing to allow that old man to ruin his plans.
He looked up to face Elder Maurice earnestly and said, “I’ll say the same thing. The tournament’s just started, and the victor hasn’t been decided yet. You don’t have to panic so much. I have my own plans, you just have to wait for the results.”
