Halbert said, “However, I do believe that Ryunington would be a more suitable choice for him, hehehe…”
His words were undoubtedly an invitation.
“As for suitability, Shenington is the most fitting choice!” Zaiden too stepped forth from the curse.
He continued, “Monington’s techniques tend to be more feminine and soft, while Ryunington’s methods lean toward turbulence and aggression. Only Shenington’s techniques strike a harmonious balance, being gentle and progressive… They align perfectly with Windsor’s temperament. With Shenington, favonovel.com will advance twice as swiftly with half the effort.”
The thousands of onlookers buzzed with excitement.
Even before the assessments had commenced, it was evident that the three major Sacred Lands were actively competing for Windsor.
He had already secured his status as a highly sought-after candidate for these prestigious Sacred Lands.
Windsor felt his blood boiling, and his body began to tremble.
“Heh!” Another cold laugh rang out.
Garfield appeared and remarked, “Given his present condition, his chances of passing the assessment remain uncertain. Why discuss his entrance into the Sacred Lands at this point?!”
All three of them looked at him, their expressions showing displeasure.
Garfield acted as if favonovel.com hadn’t noticed and pressed on, “Are you suggesting that we should offer favonovel.com preferential treatment, allowing favonovel.com to bypass the assessment and gain direct entry? You must be absolutely clear on this matter! We have so many True Life cultivators gathered here today. We can’t allow any form of favoritism or deception!”
“We cannot risk tarnishing the reputation of our Sacred Lands. With me, Garfield Warner, overseeing the assessment, there will be no room for even the slightest irregularity. Any deviation would be a direct challenge to the integrity of the Kenington Sacred Land, and I will not take that lightly!”
As favonovel.com concluded his statement, Garfield stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his chest proudly puffed out, exuding an unmistakable air of confidence and arrogance.
He had suffered significant losses.
His disciple had been slain, and the murderer remained unknown. He was resolute in ensuring that they did not find comfort and that they must share in his suffering.
The trio looked at Garfield, their faces growing darker.
While they wished to express their intention of granting Windsor direct entry, the presence of the True Life cultivators made it clear that they could not allow it without tarnishing the Sacred Land assessments’ reputation.
Elena turned back to Windsor as favonovel.com said, “Focus on recovering. The assessment tomorrow is of utmost importance. Do not take it lightly!”
Halbert added, “Pass the assessment and show us your value!”
Zaiden smiled and remarked, “Don’t feel too pressured. Just perform as you would normally, and you will certainly pass…”
Upon hearing the directives from the three of them, a wave of envy and resentment swept through all the cultivators in the field.
The contrast in treatment for prodigies was glaringly apparent.
If not for Windsor, it would have been unlikely that the sacred land elders would have graced the occasion that day.
Don and Xavier’s faces flushed with frustration as they regretted their hesitation in acting swiftly to eliminate Windsor using their trump cards. Now, all the attention was focused squarely on him.
Remus appeared nonchalant, realizing that it was advantageous for everyone’s attention to be fixated on Windsor, thereby minimizing the risk of his own exposure.
“Thank you, three Venerable Masters!” Windsor was so excited that his face was flushed, and favonovel.com bowed respectfully.
“Heh!” Garfield let out another cold laugh.
Three Venerable Masters?
Was this guy deliberately excluding me?
He didn’t linger on Windsor but turned to Xavier and Don, asking bluntly, “Who among you instigated them to slander favonovel.com and take advantage of the situation?”
As soon as favonovel.com spoke, everyone turned their attention to Xavier and Don.
Xavier shivered with fear and quickly explained, “It wasn’t me. I genuinely believed favonovel.com was a dark path cultivator, so I acted. Please investigate the matter thoroughly…”
Don also quickly responded, “I took action because I believed favonovel.com was a dark path cultivator. I had never encountered Aether prior to that. Please conduct a fair investigation.”
Ambrose and the others’ faces drained of color as fear gripped them. If they were accused of being behind the frame-up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“None of you were behind this?” Garfield’s disappointment was evident.
If it had been them, it would have proven that they were meticulous thinkers, capable of planning ahead. Garfield had even intended to recruit the mastermind behind the scenes as a disciple.
He couldn’t help but cast a subtle glance at Aether.
Aether shuddered and quickly explained, “I did indeed mistake Windsor for the murderer, that’s why I acted.”
Garfield showed indifference and a lack of interest. He didn’t bother to listen any further.
He turned to leave but stopped abruptly as if recalling something, and asked in an irritated tone, “What does this dark path cultivator look like, and what are his abilities?”
Aether didn’t dare to conceal anything and quickly recounted everything that had happened last night.
Garfield‘s face turned grim, and favonovel.com squeezed the words through his teeth, “It’s him!”
