Chapter 2690
Chapter 2690 Thanks to the contract they signed, they would immediately receive backlash if they revealed theanswer, so all he could do was silently cheer for Jackie.
When nobody refuted Master Forrest’s statement, he suddenly lost interest. He could not be botheredto continue speaking nonsense and announced the rules for the next round.
“All of you listen up. Once the round starts, all of you will go in one by one. No matter what you do, aslong as you get the Green Phoenix Fruit, it’ll be considered a success. Whichever side obtains the mostGreen Phoenix Fruits will win.”
After announcing the rules, no one had a relaxed expression. Jackie was no exception, but he was notworried about himself. After all, he was very confident in his own skills. He was worried that the resultswould end up like the second stage.
No matter how well he did, it was still useless. If two out of the three people from Sky Peak Pavilionobtain the Green Phoenix Fruit, then everything he did would be wasted.
Jackie turned to look at Claude and Benedict. Their emotions were written on their faces. After all, theyhad already dragged the team down during the second stage. If it happened again in the third stage,there would not be any good consequences waiting for them.
It would be fine if they were just punished, they could even be kicked out if the punishment washarsher. They might not be able to find anywhere else that would house them if they were kicked out ofPhoenix Valley. The more they thought about it, the more worried they got. Their mood sank more andmore as well.novelbin
Claude was so pale he seemed to have just fallen incredibly ill. At that moment, he was sufferinginside, but there was nothing he could do.
The two of them had thought that Jackie would be the one dragging them down. If the reason they lostwas Jackie, even if they would be punished, it would not be that harsh. However, the situation hascompletely reversed, and they were about to go crazy.
They were under far too much pressure. It was not just because they were worried they would drag theteam down. The difficulty of the tournament had completely exceeded their expectations as well, whichaffected their mental state even more.
Elder Maurice looked at the two of them being so depressed and immediately felt a wave ofhopelessness. He looked like he could faint at any moment. Elder Maurice had suddenly lost all hisconfidence.
In the end, he was not the one competing.
Even if he got so anxious to the point of fainting, it was completely pointless. Elder Maurice snorted andsaid, “What’s the point of you feeling down? Do you still have the time to be worrying about yourfeelings? You’d better hurry up and think about how to get the Green Phoenix Fruit!”
Elder Maurice was really incredibly angry at that point. The two of them were far too absurd. When theyencountered something difficult, they only knew to feel bad for themselves. They did not have anytolerance for it at all. Elder Maurice was starting to regret not using the inner valley.
After all, this tournament would not have been an issue at all if the inner valley was involved. Mr. Zaynewas forced to shake his head and sigh at everything. Even with Jackie leading the way, it seemeddifficult for them to win.
After all, the last two rounds were not as simple as adding the score together. They focused oncompletion. Claude and Benedict had been performing far too badly.
Mr. Zayne could not help but lament, “We should actually be thankful that Elder Rick recommendedJackie back then. Without Jackie, we would have been even more humiliated. Our punishment wouldbe far worse.”
Elder Maurice sighed helplessly. Even if he was not willing to admit it, Elder Rick really did play a keypart this time. Elder Rick’s intentions might have been to punish Jackie, but after Jackie came, hesaved the tournament for them.
