Chapter 2637
Bradley acted as if everything that was happening around him was not that significant. The more Bradley acted like
that, the more suspicious Jackie was. Could something be different about Bradley?
Before every test, the contestants would always be given fifteen minutes to calm themselves down. That amount ofnovelbin
time was not too long, but it was not that short either.
Claude and Benedict had not found anything wrong with the situation. Ever since Master Forrest announced that
the fifteen minutes had started, the two of them had their eyes shut as they started to prepare themselves.
However, Jackie was different from the two of them. Jackie did not need to prepare as they did. He had always
been the most composed one. At the start, five of them were silent, but after a while, Elder Maurice could not hold
it in.
He turned to look at Mr. Zayne and lowered his voice, “Actually, I’ve never thought we would ever losein this tournament. After all, Sky Peak Pavilion might be an eighth grade clan, but they still focus onmartial arts.
“Phoenix Pavilion doesn’t only have martial artists, but large amounts of alchemists as well. I’ve neverthought for a moment that our alchemists would lose to them. That has never changed.
“Even though Jackie appeared, I feel like our chances of winning are still very high with Claude andBenedict. Yet, just look at Master Forrest, he looks like he’s incredibly confident. I refuse to believe he’dbe so idle if he did not prepare anything!”
After saying that, Elder Maurice’s lips were pursed into a line. He narrowed his eyes slightly as variousthoughts danced in his
head. Mr. Zayne frowned slightly, feeling like something was wrong as well.
At that moment, Master Forrest was idly holding his teacup and leisurely sipping his tea. He looked likea customer at a teahouse. However you looked at it, it seemed like he was not concerned about theresults at all.
Mr. Zayne took a deep breath and whispered back, “I think they must have made some preparations.After all, this involves a lot of benefits. If they lose, they’ll end up paying a greater price.
“Since he represents Sky Peak Pavilion, he would naturally want the best for them. He doesn’t need tothink about anything else. The fact that he’s so calm means he’s confident in this tournament. He hasdefinitely come prepared!”
When Elder Maurice heard that, his expression soured. He even clenched his fists slightly as hisbreathing quickened a little.
Elder Maurice felt incredibly helpless. He felt his composure coming and going in waves. He was the person in
charge of the tournament this time. If they lost the tournament and Phoenix Valley ends up having to pay a greater
price, he would definitely be berated harshly. He would be given the relevant punishment as well.
Those were actually secondary, he was more afraid that his position would be threatened. Thinking about that, he
could not help but curse Elder Rick for being so petty and despicable.
If someone else was there instead of Jackie, he might be more confident. Even though Jackie had given his
guarantee before, Elder Maurice was not someone who just believed the words of others.
He would not believe in Jackie before he witnessed Jackie’s skills for himself.
“This time, defeat is absolutely not allowed! Do you all hear me?!” Elder Maurice said in a low voice.
