Chapter 2679
Chapter 2679 They were not even qualified to be spoken about in the same conversation as Jackie. The difference intalent between them and Jackie was like an insurmountable gulf, but he still could not admit that Jackiewas far better than Bradley.
Bradley suddenly coughed violently and slumped over as his breaths became uneven. His coughsseemed so startlingly terrible that it looked like he could cough out his lungs.
Even though Bradley was just at the early stage of the innate realm, he was already at the innaterealm. His constitution was fundamentally different from that of a regular person. Without being injured,he would never get sick.
Since his coughing could not have been caused by sickness, then there was only one other possibility.novelbin
His emotions had run too wild, and it affected his whole body, causing him to cough violently.
Master Forrest looked at Bradley worriedly as he held Bradley’s arm while he patted Bradley’s back.
Bradley’s breathing got worse as he coughed. It looked like he was incredibly ill at that moment. ElderMaurice and Mr. Zayne exchanged a look of surprise at that.
They never expected Bradley to be affected so much. Even though Jackie’s results were better thanhis, Bradley’s results were not that bad either. If Jackie was not there, he would have taken first place.
However, the moment Bradley found out that Jackie had been 14 hours earlier than him, Bradleylooked like he was about to die. The reaction startled them both.
Mr. Zayne whispered in exasperation, “This brat is a little too frail. Even though it’s quite a blow, we’reall warriors here. Unless a knife is held to our necks, nothing else matters! To be so emotional justbecause Jackie was better than him…”
Master Forrest nodded at that. Bradley’s actions caused them to look down on him with disdain. Even ifit was a big, emotional blow, he did not have to end up in such a state. Master Forrest looked atBradley with pity.
He knew how bad Bradley was feeling at that moment, thus he helped Bradley up while assuring him,“It’s fine. It’s fine, even if you lose. You don’t have to think too much about it.
“It’s just a small bump in your road to success. You’ll be fine after it passes.”
Bradley was caught in a coughing fit for a good while before he slowly recovered. At that moment, hisface was as white as paper, his eyes already bloodshot. Without context, anyone would definitelyassume that Bradley contracted some incurable illness.
Bradley’s hands trembled as he was seized in his emotional state. At that moment, his mood had hitrock bottom as an untold amount of thoughts raged in his mind.
Master Forrest’s words of consolation echoed in his head…but they failed to convince Bradley. Theman had been too emotional earlier, and had not recovered that much.
It took a long time before he finally said, “You’re right.”
That was all he said, and nothing else.
Meanwhile…
Elder Maurice frowned at their insults at Jackie. Initially, Elder Maurice did not want to disarray thatbrat’s emotions even more, so he did not stop them.
However, the two of them kept on going, referring to Jackie as ‘a blip on the road’ and
‘a stepping stone’. How could Elder Maurice stand it?
