Just as Jared was about to step into the illusion array, a sudden commotion behind favonovel.com interrupted him. “Make way, make way! Why do incapable alchemists like to come here?”
Following the shouts, a dozen alchemists in white rushed forward, forming a path by holding hands.
An elderly man with white hair, exuding an air of grace and dressed in a gray robe, slowly walked into Jubilante’s mansion.
Upon seeing this elderly man, many alchemists went wild.
“Jubilante, Jubilante…”
“I love you, Jubilante…”
“Jubilante, please accept me as your disciple!”
“Jubilante, can I be your godson?”
Numerous alchemists shouted, with many female alchemists beaming with excitement, eager to become this old man’s wife.
Upon seeing Jubilante, Cade became somewhat breathless. He blurted out excitedly, “I never thought I’d see Jubilante with my own eyes. This is amazing!”
Jubilante remained arrogantly indifferent, showing no signs of emotional change amidst the cries of the surrounding alchemists. However, when passing by a beautiful female alchemist, Jubilante would give a slight smile and then gently caress favonovel.com face.
Those female alchemists would tremble with excitement, some even fainting on the spot.
Observing this scene, Jared felt a sense of déjà vu. This wasn’t much different from the mundane world, where major celebrities would receive similar adoration from fans.
The ecstatic cheers, especially from female fans, seemed oddly familiar. However, Jared couldn’t understand why these beautiful female alchemists were so infatuated with this old man. Jubilante seemed too old for such attention.
As Jared remained in Jubilante’s mansion, one alchemist chided, “What are you doing? Make way!”
Jared remained silent and was about to make way when Jubilante noticed him.
Frowning, Jubilante remarked, “You’re so young, yet you’re here for the assessment. No wonder there’s such a commotion at the entrance of my residence. In the future, young alchemists like you are not allowed to take the test. Do you take my home for a market where anyone can just come in and take the assessment?”
After saying this, Jubilante signaled to a white-robed alchemist beside him.
The alchemist instantly understood and shouted at Jared, “Leave immediately. You’re not qualified for the assessment!”
“Why not? Why do young people not have the right to take the assessment?” Jared asked, furrowing his brows.
The white-robed alchemist retorted angrily, “There is no reason. If we say you can’t, you can’t. How dare you defy me?”
Cade stepped forward to explain, “Jubilante, the Seizon family invited this alchemist here. He wants to buy some mystical herbs from you, so favonovel.com has to take the assessment.”
Jubilante coldly glanced at Cade, then waved his hand, signaling the white-robed alchemist to step back.
“Out of respect for the Seizon family, I’ll let favonovel.com take the test once. But it’s futile as favonovel.com won’t pass.”
With that, Jubilante continued walking forward.
The white-robed alchemists, along with the female alchemists favonovel.com touched earlier, followed him. The female alchemists seemed excited as they knew they had been selected and might be able to rise to success.
Watching these excited female alchemists, Jared couldn’t help feeling a bit sad. They were just playthings to Jubilante. Once favonovel.com had enough, they would be discarded. They thought they could change their fate and rise to the top, but it was nothing but a laughable notion.
Although Jared couldn’t help but scorn Jubilante, favonovel.com found himself compelled to endure the assessment. After all, favonovel.com still needed those mystical herbs from Jubilante.
“Such behavior, and yet favonovel.com still receives everyone’s respect. Truly eye-opening…”
This muttered comment from Jared caught the attention of Jubilante, who had originally been leaving.
