Female Novel
Chapter 2724
Chapter 2724 Conrad was about to die from jealousy, deeply envious of all of Jackie’s accomplishments. Jackie wasnot just better at alchemy than everyone else, but he was even an accomplished fighter.
God truly played favorites, and Jackie was the apple of his eye. He seemed like a speck of insignificantdust, while Jackie was akin to the brightest sun in the sky.
Conrad was in an incredibly unstable mood at that moment. In his arduously bitter state, he spoke, “Didhe hide his strength to surprise everyone? I got to hand it to him, he did it. Our jaws are about to hit theground. You know, that’d be ridiculous if he did.”
Elder Maurice heard that and immediately retorted, “Don’t speak nonsense just because you’re skill-less. Jackie hid his strength, but he didn’t know what the contents of the tournament would be! Hedidn’t know he’d be facing a phoenix. The proof is in the pudding, and you can try all you want to smearJackie, but it’s pointless!”
Conrad’s face reddened at that. He knew that the words he said earlier were twisting the truth, but hestill could not stop himself. He had been berated in front of everyone and felt incredibly embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Master Forrest coldly looked at Conrad. If word about what happened here were to spread,everyone would think that Sky Peak Pavilion were sore losers, and they even tried to smear theiropponents. It was definitely not a good look.
Conrad immediately shut his mouth upon noticing Master Forrest’s sharp gaze on him, not daring tosay anything.novelbin
At that moment, Jackie had obtained five Green Phoenix Fruits and was walking toward everyone withthe phoenix core as well. When he left the illusion and went into the buffer, he immediately saweveryone within the buffer looking at him with complicated expressions.
Elder Maurice was in no rush to praise Jackie. He merely looked at Jackie with a measuring expressionas though he was an incomparable treasure.
Jackie’s lips twitched helplessly, not caring about how everyone was looking at him. He merely openedup his palm in front of Master Forrest. “You agreed to this before. These are all mine.”
Jackie’s words caused Master Forrest’s face to sour. Back then, he had thought that Jackie was justbragging when he said all that. Alas, it seemed like Jackie had said all of that because he knew howconfident he was in himself and his skills.
With that in mind, Master Forrest felt a little depressed. Everything he had said came back to haunt himfervently, and he felt like an utter fool. His body stiffened, almost losing his composure. After calminghimself down, he finally mustered a smile… One that looked incredibly forced and ugly.
“I have said that, yes, and I’m a man of my word. Everything there is yours. “
Jackie nodded. With these words, everything in his hands was his for sure. He had thought that thetournament would have just been a way for him to escape danger, but he had actually won himself areputation and a small fortune.
After placing everything in Mustard Seed, Jackie was noticeably much happier. In contrast, however,everyone else looked much more tormented.
