Chapter 2960

- Chapter 2960 -

“Rudeus’ behavior in arranging things this way is because he doesn’t want Hestia to be humiliated. If everyone participates so brazenly like

you are, won’t it show the other two continents that our alchemists are all so bad?!”

Hearing that, Jack raised an eyebrow as he said loudly, “Stop looking for excuses, I won’t be convinced just like that. You keep on saying you

don’t want Hestia to be humiliated, but what you’re doing will only embarrass us even more. There are so many alchemists here. Is it that

hard to pick out a few seventh-grade alchemists? The fact that the seventh-grade alchemists are all unwilling to step up is purely because

they’d be humiliated by Rudeus if they didn’t satisfy him.”

“Who’d want to step up just to be berated? You’re stopping others from taking part and humiliating our continent even more! In your eyes,

sixth-grade alchemists are nothing, but what about seventh-grade alchemists?! Surely it won’t be hard to pick out a few seventh-grade

alchemists when there are over ten thousand of them here! Why can’t we even pick out ten? Simply put, no one wants to be scolded!”

“The standards you uphold are hilarious. As long as they have a seventh-grade alchemist badge, they won’t be mocked when they enter.

After all, the badge doesn’t explicitly say how skilled a person is. Even if the alchemists from the other continents are skilled, there’s no way

there will be a lot of eighth-grade alchemists. After all, there’s an age restriction!”

Jack’s words were quite logical, and the other alchemists slowly became convinced. Everyone slowlyfelt like Rudeus’ earlier arrangements were too tyrannical and too reliant on him alone.

Many alchemists were present, including seventh-grade alchemists. It should not be difficult to pick out10 of them to compete. The reason why no one stepped up was simply because of Rudeus’ horribletemper. If they were not to his standards, they would be shouted at.

There should have been a lot more people willing to participate. After all, no one wanted Hestia to behumiliated.

Rudeus was shaking in anger as he looked at Jack with even more hatred in his eyes. If it were not forJack, he would not be questioned like that!

Jack did not care how angry Rudeus was at all. Instead, he turned and raised his voice to speak to allthe other alchemists, “You can compete if you want to. It’s a rare chance to train yourselves. After all,you’re not competing with the alchemists of Hestia but those from other worlds instead. Even if you’ll bemocked, it’s fine! Just imagine that they’re dogs that only know how to bark!”

“Hey, that guy has a point, this is a rare chance! We can’t just listen to Rudeus' arrangements. Eventhough I’m not an eighth-grade alchemist, I’m still a seventh-grade alchemist.”

“My skills are decent. There’s no way I'll get a treasure, but at least I can train myself. I’ll only be able toimprove if I do that!”

“Even though this guy is insufferable, he’s being logical here. We can’t just follow what Rudeus wants, we should think for ourselves!”novelbin

Slowly, the alchemists’ stance shifted as they gravitated to accept Jack’s view and that Rudeus should not have a final say in everything.

After all, Rudeus was only concerned with himself.

After a short while, a tall man stood up from his mat. He walked over to the Heaven Array and grabbed a small array before putting it in his

storage space.

The man told everyone, “I won’t let this chance go. I’ve decided to take part in the seventh group!”

After saying that, he turned and walked back to his spot. Slowly, everyone started to move, and the remaining arrays were quickly taken.
