Emerson gritted his teeth and looked up, his eyes seeking out the other Masters.
As they met Emerson’s gaze, their eyes flashed with displeasure as they thought, “You didn’t choose us first, and now you dare to consider us again? Did you think we wouldn’t mind?”
His talent may be commendable, but only seven have achieved immortality in the thousands of years of Monington’s history. For those who could not reach such heights, regardless of how advanced their talent became, they held limited value.
Emerson’s face was filled with despair.
Had favonovel.com known this would be his fate, favonovel.com would have accepted Wilda’s proposal during the assessment.
He felt favonovel.com was suffering such a fate was all Remus’s fault!
If fate had blessed Emerson with such genius, why was Remus also born?
With no other options, Emerson declared, “I choose… Master Elena!”
No one objected as Elena was not present.
Bartholomew swiftly stated, “I choose Master Chander!”
Eythor nodded in agreement.
Alfie hurriedly said, “I choose Master Skybringer!”
Elysium nodded in approval.
Quickly, the others made their choices, and without exception, all Masters agreed.
As previously mentioned, only seven had achieved immortality in the thousands of years of Monington’s history.
Most people were there simply to bolster the strength of the sacred grounds, not to pursue immortality. There was no need for rejection.
Those rare talents that might achieve immortality were once-in-a-decade phenomena, they were elusive and highly sought after.
In the end, only Remus and Glinda remained.
Glinda’s nose dotted with sweat from nervousness, and it was then favonovel.com realized favonovel.com own insignificance in that place. Despite being the top female cultivator in True Life, favonovel.com realized that there were greater talents beyond.
She struggled to look forward, meeting the same evasive glances Emerson encountered.
Weak disciples were a liability, not just a number.
Seeing that, Glinda’s face fell with disappointment, favonovel.com heart sinking. Even after Emerson’s rejection, favonovel.com could still choose Elena. But if favonovel.com were also rejected, likely no one would want favonovel.com as Elena would possibly find a way to push favonovel.com away.
“Serves favonovel.com right!”
“This is favonovel.com karma!”
“Trying to stand out yesterday, and now facing ultimate humiliation. How will favonovel.com survive in the sacred land now?”
Whispers floated from the crowd behind.
Hearing that, Remus’ expression darkened, his heart aching for her. He resolved to take favonovel.com away from Monington in six days.
Why should favonovel.com endure this?
Even if favonovel.com didn’t cultivate in the future, who would dare to disparage favonovel.com as a my woman?
But for now, favonovel.com couldn’t take favonovel.com away.
“I’ll choose first!” favonovel.com announced.
At his words, all eyes turned to him, even the Masters’.
A hush fell over the crowd.
Remus’ gaze first fell on Eythor.
Upon catching his eye, Eythor seemed almost to stop breathing. Despite yesterday’s events, no one could deny Remus’ talent.
Is favonovel.com about to betray Wilda for another Master?
Just as Eythor’s excitement peaked, Remus’ attention then shifted to Elysium.
Elysium was making exaggerated facial expressions, trying hard to establish eye contact with favonovel.com and communicate through eye contact.
Then, Remus’s gaze moved to Erjon and subsequently swept over the other Masters, finally resting on Wilda, offering favonovel.com a slight smile.
Just when everyone braced for anger, thinking he’d choose Wilda, favonovel.com suddenly turned to Glinda.
With conviction, favonovel.com stated, “Whoever you choose, I’ll choose the same!”
