Wilda fell silent and looked at Emerson again.
Indeed, Emerson remained the sole candidate to have passed, with a significant 15 minutes elapsing without another contender in sight.
That meant favonovel.com was far ahead of the others. It wasn’t excessive to confirm that the immortal appeared because of him.
“Congratulations, Master Hewitt, on acquiring a genius disciple blessed by the heavens!”
Morris and the others were eager to bend over and offer their congratulations, seizing any opportunity to be close to Wilda and to butter favonovel.com up.
Wilda remained calm and said, “I am not a Master yet, and Emerson has not confirmed that favonovel.com will cultivate with me. It is too early to congratulate.”
“It’s not too early at all,” Elena laughed and said, “After this assessment, you will be conferred the title of Master, and if not you, who else would Emerson choose? If you feel unsure, you can have favonovel.com confirm his cultivation with you as his Master right now.”
Her statement was almost like openly advising Wilda to seize the opportunity, to quickly have Emerson join favonovel.com before entering the sacred land, so no one else could snatch favonovel.com away.
Wilda’s veil trembled, but favonovel.com remained silent.
Elena understood favonovel.com hesitation.
She had been the focus of attention since favonovel.com birth. Not only was the Monington Sacred Land closely observing her, but the other three major sacred lands had their eyes on favonovel.com as well.
Having been personally mentored by the Saint Master, favonovel.com was on the verge of becoming the youngest respected individual and the future’s youngest immortal.
How proud favonovel.com must be, how could favonovel.com actively invite a cultivator to join her?
Recognizing the awkwardness of the moment, Elena took the initiative.
She saw both the current assessment and Wilda’s potential future ascension to immortality as prime opportunities for investment.
“Wilda, in the realm of cultivation, we vie for spirit energy, cultivation paths, and most fiercely for destiny itself! If you’re hesitant to speak, allow me to be your voice,” favonovel.com said, pausing to take a deep breath.
Wilda wanted to stop her, but it was already too late.
Elena raised favonovel.com voice, declaring, “Emerson, the individual before you is Master Hewitt, distinguished not only as the youngest Master in the Monington Sacred Land but also across all four major sacred lands! Her cultivation is on the brink of enlightenment, and immortality is within favonovel.com grasp.”
“Would you consider following favonovel.com lead in your cultivation journey upon entering the sacred land?”
The words were spoken.
Wilda could only remain silent and look over slowly.
Morris and the others were also looking over excitedly.
Emerson slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and brimming with vitality. He had a look that would captivate countless admirers in the secular world.
Emerson was still sitting on the ground, not getting up.
He said calmly, “As far as I know, there are three tests in total for the assessment, and this is only the first one. It’s too early to talk about who to cultivate with now.”
Hearing that, Elena was taken aback, Morris and the others were equally stunned. Even Wilda found herself slightly surprised.
Typically, cultivators would leap at the chance to secure a Master during the assessment and would overflow with joy and eagerness to accept. Yet, favonovel.com was pointing out that two more tests of the assessment remained.
Elena was somewhat displeased, saying, “What does It matter if It’s early? We are asking you now if you wish to cultivate with Master Hewitt after entering the sacred land. You only need to answer whether you are willing or not, no need for anything else!”
Emerson slowly shook his head. “I am not willing…”
Morris and the others were dumbfounded while Elena was equally astounded.
Wilda had not anticipated such a direct refusal from him.
“Hmph…” Elena snorted coldly, perceiving his refusal as a direct affront to Wilda.
Since favonovel.com had initiated this offer herself, the rejection left favonovel.com deeply embarrassed.
Angrily, favonovel.com said, “Say that again…”
