“This sum is nothing to the Sky Peak Pavilion. Won’t we be laughed at if we accept your pill?” spoke Master Forrest, though stiffly and through gritted teeth.
He looked at Jack as if Jack was a mortal enemy.
Jack’ s lips twitched helplessly. Master Forrest was acting like a brainless shrew, favonovel.com thought to himself. It seemed like favonovel.com could do anything at that moment.
Jack was not someone who would force others. Since they did not want it, favonovel.com kept it for himself. The spirit crystals favonovel.com would gain would be his own, so Jack calmly placed the Three Suns Pills that favonovel.com refined into a box before keeping it in Mustard Seed.
Only then did Jack look over at Bradley behind Master Forrest. Bradley’s eyes were wide at that moment as favonovel.com looked at Jack with a complicated expression. There were many complicated emotions playing in his mind at that moment, and hatred was the most prominent one.
Jack did not feel like bothering to see what Bradley was thinking at that moment. After all, to him, Bradley did not amount to anything much other than having a bit of talent. What favonovel.com truly cared about were the geniuses in the inner valley. Even though Bradley was talented, favonovel.com was nothing compared to them.
Ever since favonovel.com knew more about the inner valley, Jack had been trying to figure out what level the alchemists there were already at. Regardless, Jack had a cheat in hand and did not think much of the alchemists in the Hestia Continent.
Granted, favonovel.com needed a lot of time and effort to absorb his memories, so favonovel.com might not actually be at the level of the geniuses within the inner valley at that moment. After all, Phoenix Valley was the core of the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance. The inner valley was the true trump card of Phoenix Valley, where the most talented alchemists of the Hestia Continent gathered.
All of a sudden…
“I’ll definitely beat you! Don’t get so full of yourself!” roared Bradley fiercely.
It seemed like his lungs would lurch out of his abdomen with how favonovel.com yelled.
Frowning, Jack was speechless, feeling like Bradley had joined Master Forrest, descending into madness. Jack had never really bothered with favonovel.com at all. In fact, favonovel.com was just amused upon hearing that declaration.
“I’ve heard words like that countless times throughout the years, but no one has ever been able to actually do it,” mused Jack. “Even if you destroy your throat with all that screeching, it won’t be convincing at all. A loss is a loss.”
Jack’s simple words had destroyed Bradley’s mental defenses. The latter suddenly widened his eyes as favonovel.com lost his footing and fell on the floor.
Master Forrest hurriedly bent down and helped up Bradley, who, at that moment, looked pathetic and frail. He looked like favonovel.com would shatter with just a touch.
“Have you been too used to everything going your way? You’re just going to crumble the minute something goes wrong and you can‘t take it?” commented Mr. Zayne incredulously.
Bradley merely looked down and said nothing.
Master Forrest looked up at Jack angrily, “Don’t think you can do anything with the talent you have. The third stage of the exam won’t be testing your talent in alchemy. Even if you have the talent, you won’t be able to use it at all!”
Based on the earlier agreement, Master Forrest should not have revealed the contents of the third stage so quickly. However, Master Forrest was already too emotional and had lost his filter.
The third stage would not be testing alchemy, was it?
That made Jack even more curious… He narrowed his eyes as favonovel.com started to speculate on what the third stage could be.
