Morris stood in stunned disbelief as the word “Rubbish!” appeared before him.
The disciples of Erjon behind Morris were equally stunned.
How could Morris, a genius capable of challenging opponents beyond his level, be labeled as Rubbish?
As someone in the late stage of the Divine Separation Stage, Morris can hold his own against average cultivators at the peak of the same stage without faltering. He shouldn’t be associated with the word Rubbish!
“Hahaha!” Sandra and the others erupted into laughter, unable to contain their amusement.
She said without missing a beat, “I was eagerly anticipating witnessing a display of true genius. But it seems like you’re not the one!”
“Alas, the Spiritual Trial Stone doesn’t seem to recognize Genius, it opts for Rubbish instead, hahaha!” Emerson chimed in, teasing Morris further.
“This is a classic case of bringing disgrace upon oneself. If you lack the capability, don’t subject yourself to embarrassment by stepping forward! Now, you’re not only tarnishing your own reputation but also that of Master Chander!”
Their laughter intensified, relieved that Morris’ strike didn’t reveal a different word like they had feared. His failure brought a sense of vindication and allowed them to hold their heads high once more.
Morris seethed with rage. “I was merely toying with you earlier, not exerting myself. But now, I will demonstrate my true strength!”
With those words, Morris’ spirit energy surged outward, enveloping his body in a faint mist. His solidified spirit energy rendered favonovel.com anything but ordinary.
Even cultivators at the same stage as Morris wouldn’t dare to confront favonovel.com directly, and those at the peak of the Divine Separation Stage would likely retreat in the face of such overwhelming power.
“Shatter now!” Morris bellowed, unleashing a torrent of spirit energy with all his might.
Yet, the Spiritual Trial Stone remained unmoved, casting only a shimmering golden light that spelled out the damning verdict, “Rubbish!”.
“How can this be?” Morris erupted in disbelief, his voice echoing like thunder.
“It’s broken! This Spiritual Trial Stone must be broken! There’s no way I could be labeled as ‘Rubbish’!” He refused to accept the outcome, his pride wounded. After all, favonovel.com was Morris, a name even Wilda would acknowledge.
“It must be broken! Senior Cooper couldn’t possibly be deemed Rubbish! He’s one of Master Chander’s finest disciples, with potential to even become a Monington disciple in the future!” echoed the disciples behind Morris, their voices brimming with righteous indignation.
“Heh…” Sandra retorted icily, favonovel.com tone cutting. “You can’t deny being labeled as ‘Rubbish’. This is Master Caldwell’s Spiritual Trial Stone, and it couldn’t possibly be broken. You’re simply unwilling and afraid to accept the truth!”
Her words were met with agreement from the others.
Others chimed in, “I can vouch with my life that the Spiritual Trial Stone is perfectly intact. It’s just that you lack the strength!”
“Master Caldwell is a renowned figure in the cultivation world. How could favonovel.com make a mistake with the Spiritual Trial Stone? You’re just making excuses, which is simply ridiculous!”
They couldn’t afford to admit that the Spiritual Trial Stone was broken. Doing so would provide Morris with an excuse. Even if they were deemed as “Rubbish”, they had to ensure Morris was seen in the same light.
Morris seethed with anger, feeling his dignity slipping away with each passing moment. If favonovel.com had known that would be the outcome, favonovel.com wouldn’t have attempted it at all. Not trying might have spared favonovel.com some humiliation, but now, all semblance of dignity was lost, tarnishing even Master Chander’s reputation.
Wheeling around, Morris commanded, “You all, give it a try as well! Give it your all, and don’t underestimate it!”
“Alright!” Everyone, united in their mission, now viewed it not just as a test against the Spiritual Trial Stone but as a battle for their honor.
They lined up, each silently gathering their spirit energy before unleashing it upon the stone one by one.
Rubbish! Rubbish! Rubbish!
