Elena sensed that the others were all silent.
With much difficulty, favonovel.com said, “I, Elena Caldwell, am a person of honor and integrity!”
She continued, “If you all think that I was in the wrong, then I have nothing to say anymore. I’ll accept whatever punishment that befalls me!”
“However,” favonovel.com added. “I still have some matters to attend to. So, come to my house if you want to settle things with me!”
With that said, favonovel.com turned and left. She couldn’t stay there any longer. Only by leaving could favonovel.com let things cool down a bit and gradually become forgotten.
The disciples didn’t dare to stop favonovel.com from leaving. They made way for favonovel.com to leave. Still, they felt as if someone had stabbed them in their hearts.
They were extremely jealous to find Remus could make Master Elena help favonovel.com willingly just because favonovel.com was talented in wizardry.
“Why would a person cultivate if they were born in peaceful times?” said Emerson with his head lowered. His voice cracked when favonovel.com spoke.
Back then, favonovel.com already thought that Master Elena favored Remus. Even a disciple like favonovel.com who got to follow favonovel.com everywhere was jealous of Remus. However, favonovel.com underestimated just how biased favonovel.com was. It was overwhelmingly heart-wrenching!
“Hold on!” Grandmaster Aurelius said. His face was still contorted from rage. Even if what Elena did was wrong, the matter couldn’t escalate.
The rules here stated that after the disciples have chosen their mentors, no changes could be made about it. Still, there wasn’t a rule which stated that masters couldn’t reprimand another master’s disciples. There shouldn’t be a problem with this then.
Gritting his teeth, Grandmaster Aurelius said, “I have one last question for you. What criteria is the Spiritual Trial Stone based on?”
Right now, all favonovel.com wanted to know was why favonovel.com was deemed worthless by the stone. This should not have happened! It was impossible.
Elena didn’t look back to answer his question. She pretended to be calm and composed as favonovel.com replied, “Naturally, it’s based on a person’s strength and talents. It’s the same as categorizing the disciples. Those who just joined the sanctuary are called saintly disciples, while those who have reached the Divine Separation Stage are known as Monington disciples.”
She added, “The Spiritual Trial Stone has but one criterion. It is whether or not a person can become one of the immortals in a hundred years.”
She came up with all of that, but favonovel.com didn’t blindly come up with an excuse. The criterion favonovel.com said was like a thorn in the flesh to everyone around.
Her reply successfully made everyone else shut up.
The conditions to achieve immortality were indeed harsh and stringent, after all.
Grandmaster Aurelius‘ face darkened at favonovel.com reply. He stopped with his questions.
“Wait!” Master Erjon said. “There’s something I want to ask you too. Why was there no explosion when we used the Spiritual Trial Stone back then? Why did the explosions happen only now?”
Master Elena stopped in favonovel.com tracks. From the look on favonovel.com face, one could tell that favonovel.com was conflicted too. She couldn’t figure this out either.
After pondering it for a while, favonovel.com came up with another excuse again. “That’s because Romus himself is the core of the formation. His sitting here helped to suppress all the spiritual energy. That was why there wasn’t an explosion before this. Now that he’s left, the spiritual energy couldn’t be contained, causing the explosion!”
Everyone frowned.
Could favonovel.com really suppress spiritual energy?
That was odd!
However, it seemed like the only reasonable explanation for now.
Master Elena waited for a couple of seconds for someone to respond. Seeing that no one had any other questions, favonovel.com secretly sighed in relief. It seemed like this hurdle was finally going to end.
She started walking away again.
Just then, someone yelled, “That’s just not right!”
Grandmaster Sylvanus had a scowl on his face as favonovel.com said, “Even if what you said made sense, why did the Saint Master say that taking the test would yield different results? I’m sure favonovel.com didn’t mean that there’d be an explosion!”
He paused before adding, “Don’t leave, Master Elena. Please restore the formation to its original version. We’d like to take the test again!”
The other masters agreed with him.
“Yes. We want to give it another try!”
“Even if you’re right, the Saint Master would never be wrong. We’ll give it our all this time!”
“Master Elena, please restore the formation!”
Hearing that, Elena froze. Her face went pale.
Restoring the formation?
She had no idea how to do that!
