Female Novel
Chapter 2834 The Bet
Gregory had initially thought that Jared was not doing anything due to the lack of a pill cauldron.
“Mr. Stark, don't worry. Mr. Chance hasn't started yet because he's confident.” Ghaylen intervenedwhen he saw Gregory about to lend his pill cauldron to Jared.
“Hey, this is the most critical part of the competition. We can't afford to be careless! If Mr. Chancedoesn't win first place, I'll feel really bad. It's all because of me...” Gregory blamed himself, his facefilled with self-reproach.
If he hadn't been manipulated, Jared wouldn't have ended up in this fourth round of the competition.
Ghaylen patted Gregory on the shoulder, trying to calm him down. Hence, Gregory had no choicebut to sit back down.
Meanwhile, within Roderick's spiritual cauldron, the spiritual fire surged. A medicinal aroma waftedin the air as the flames danced and shifted continuously,
Strands of aura continually swirled around the spiritual cauldron, indicating an extremely fastalchemical process was happening within.
However, Jared remained calm, merely watching Roderick intently.
Roderick felt slightly unnerved by Jared's persistent gaze and said, “Why do you keep staring atme? If you don't have a pill cauldron and can't craft a Seventh Level pill, just admit defeat alreadyand save us all some time.”
“Who told you that I can't craft it? I'm just not in the mood to start now. If I can craft a Seventh Levelpill in just a few minutes, wouldn't that disgrace you?” Jared replied with a cold smirk.
Hearing Jared's confident words, Roderick retorted, “Kid, stop bragging. I've already completed halfof my Seventh Level pill. Even if you start now, you won't catch up to me! Crafting a Seventh Levelpill in a few minutes is an outrageous claim. If you truly manage to craft one that quickly, I'll not onlybow down to you, but I'll also give you my spiritual cauldron. If you fail, you'll need to bow to methree times. How about that?”
Jared's eyes brightened at Roderick's proposal. “It's a deal. Can I trust your words, though?”
“A real man keeps his word. There are so many witnesses here. How could I not keep my word?”Roderick affirmed.
As Jared and Roderick unexpectedly began to bet on the arena, the others also becameincreasingly exhilarated.
However, they all believed Jared was merely boasting. After all, who could craft a Seventh Level pillin just a few minutes?
“This young man's spiritual sense is impressive, but he's too young. Only someone so young wouldsay something like that and dare make such a bet,” the elderly judge commented, shaking his headrepeatedly.
Initially, he admired Jared for being able to craft such a potent Focus Pill at his age. He even wentas far as considering Jared a prodigy.
However, Jared's penchant for boasting was a flaw.
Gregory also grew anxious. He really wanted to stop Jared as he thought the latter shouldn't bebetting against Roderick!
“Since you're true to your word, I'll give it a try,” Jared said.
With that, he casually made a gesture.
His Divine Cauldron flew out from his Storage Ring before landing on the stage.
“What's that? A cauldron?”
When Roderick's gaze fell upon Jared's Divine Cauldron, a cold smirk curled his lips.
Jared's Divine Cauldron was pitch-black and devoid of any luster. It resembled an ordinary scorchediron pot.
The onlookers couldn't help but mock it upon seeing the Divine Cauldron.
“D*mn, what is that? No wonder he didn't want to show it. It's freaking embarrassing!”
“It can't even compare to the cauldrons provided by Jipsdale for the competition. Isn't that really justa rusty old pot?”
“He's so sentimental about this cr*ppy pill cauldron that he still hasn't thrown it away. Howlaughable!”
Laughter rippled through the crowd as they poked fun at Jared. Even Gregory's expression souredwhen he saw Jared unveil his Divine Cauldron.
Meanwhile, the elderly judge's eyes widened in astonishment as he caught sight of the DivineCauldron.
With just one glance, he discerned that Jared's cauldron was far from ordinary.novelbin
Its exterior was deliberately roughed up by Jared.
