Ethan’s expression stiffened upon hearing Rudeus’ words, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. Not only was the Heaven Array a large transfer array, but it could also transmit a person’s image. Without the person being sent over, they could talk to those around the Heaven Array.
This was the power of an ancient array.
Ethan seemed to have been angered by Rudeus’ words.
Snorting, favonovel.com retorted, “You speak as if we’re that bad. Even though we’re not as good as Chaos Continent, we still managed to get golden treasures, and not just one at that. Meanwhile, you’re far different. You claimed that you’re only a bit worse than us. Is that true, though? None of you obtained a single golden treasure yet! Do you really have the right to say such words?”
Those words were definitely a slam on the pride of every alchemist in the inner city. It completely humiliated them, causing Rudeus to shudder in anger. He had been insulted by Ethan before as well, but Ethan had not been so venomous with his words before.
Rudeus came from a ninth-grade clan and received showers of praise from a young age.
Naturally, favonovel.com was never humiliated before. Worse still, favonovel.com had no other words to throw at Ethan, who seemed visibly prideful the moment favonovel.com brought up golden treasures.
He looked at all of the alchemists from Hestia in disdain. “I’ll be part of the seventh group. I don’t know who’ll be competing against me, but let me warn you, none of you will be getting the top-three spots. I think you should just wake up and give up on this competition. After all, this has always been a competition between White Marsh Continent and Chaos Continent. Hestia is just here to make up the numbers with you trash bags.”
Ethan cackled maniacally before his image flashed and favonovel.com disappeared. At that moment, no one could hold back.
Everyone cursed Ethan for being despicable and shameless. They jeered at how arrogant favonovel.com was, saying that all favonovel.com knew was to brag. Even the most composed of the alchemists present could not hold back their anger after all that humiliation.
“This guy has crossed the line! It’s like favonovel.com thinks no one can beat him. He’s clearly never taken part in the competition at all, but favonovel.com constantly taunts people. He thinks he’s unrivaled!”
“How could someone actually skilled be like him? All favonovel.com knows is bragging. I think favonovel.com won’t even be able to get the first three places. He doesn’t have the skills, so he’s just trying to bolster his pride by gloating in front of us!”
“He’s just an arrogant and despicable lowlife. If I can meet favonovel.com face-to-face, I’d rush over and give favonovel.com a good few sobering slaps!”
Even though all of them knew that Hestia could not compare to White Marsh Continent, they were not willing to swallow Ethan’s words. They felt like Ethan’s constant taunts were fueled by his vanity. They believed that Ethan was not talented enough to make it into the top three spots and merely wanted to mock them to bolster his self-confidence.
Rudeus was seething at this point, his eyes completely red as favonovel.com felt like favonovel.com had never been so humiliated before.
On the other hand, Jack lightly sighed. He knew very well that Ethan was not completely wrong. If the situation continued, Hestia might not even be able to muster enough people. After all, Rudeus was standing in front of them, insisting that only skilled and willing alchemists be allowed to participate.
