Chapter 2288 Dragon Bell
Since it was to repay Jared for saving her life, Claus no longer had a reason to question Hailey'sdecision to gift that Life-saving Runestone to Jared.
He could only watch Hailey chat enthusiastically with Jared. Taking in her delighted mien, Claus feltextremely jealous.
He merely wished the Secret Realm Conference would begin as soon as possible to put an end toJared and Hailey's conversation.
“Everyone, please quiet down.” At that moment, Quindon, sitting on the platform, got to his feet andspoke loudly.
Instantaneously, everyone stopped talking and shifted their attention to the platform.
After everyone quieted down, Quindon continued, “As the Secret Realm Conference restarts, I hopeeveryone will maintain a learning attitude and avoid harming others intentionally. Remember, friendshipis more important than the outcome of the competition. Now, please welcome Sigwin Green from theSupreme Honor Rankings to strike the Dragon Bell to officiate our conference! However, there's a slightamendment to the rules this year. Anyone can challenge themselves and strike the Dragon Bell, butwhether the bell will ring depends on each individual's skills. I would suggest all of you to exercisecaution. Don't end up failing to ring the Dragon Bell, only to suffer a backlash and serious injuries fromthe attempt. That would be a loss.”
After saying that, Quindon turned to Sigwin. “Mr. Green, please go ahead.”
Sigwin nodded. Then, he gently kicked off the ground, instantly launching himself toward the bell tower.He pushed the bronze door open and entered.
The moment the door was opened, a terrifying aura burst forth.
The bell tower was only around fifty meters tall, but it took half an hour for Sigwin to reappear at the topof the edifice after going in.
“Outstanding!” Many people cheered and applauded when Sigwin reappeared on the top of the belltower.
“It seems like Sigwin has significantly improved. It only took him half an hour to reach the top of the belltower now,” Zain couldn't help but exclaim.
“Is half an hour considered short? But that tower is only fifty meters tall, right?” Jared asked puzzlingly.
“Mr. Chance, you're probably new to this. Although this bell tower isn't tall, the path leading up to thetop is full of arcane arrays that one must pass through. Moreover, even if they overcome the arcanearray and reach the top, that doesn't mean they can ring the Dragon Bell. The bell is engraved withnine dragon-shaped patterns. A golden dragon will circle around the Bell Tower every time it rings.Sigwin could only ring the bell once. Quindon, the strongest person here, once took up the challenge,but even he could only ring the bell five times. At that time, the scene featuring five soaring dragonswas truly magnificent!”
Zain's eyes were distant and filled with anticipation when he recounted the story. Jared figured thatspectacular view of five soaring golden dragons must've genuinely left a deep impression on Zain.
“So, there are so many intricacies to ringing this Dragon Bell. I shall give it a try later.” Jared couldn'thelp but become interested in the Dragon Bell.
“Jared, do you think you can strike the Dragon Bell with your capabilities? I'm afraid you can't evenreach the top of the bell tower. If you suffer backlashes from the arcane arrays, you may even risk
losing your life. Do you think anyone can just take on the challenge?” Claus, standing at one side, saidto Jared.
Jared's pleasant conversation with Hailey earlier had already prompted Claus to be displeased withJared.
“No matter whether I can ring the bell, it's still worth trying. If we're too scared to even attempt it, what'sthe point of us attaining a high cultivation level?” Jared chirped.
“Jared, you're from the mundane world, so you don't know how formidable this Dragon Bell is. Youprobably won't say something like that once you witness its ferocity.” Claus sneered and fell silentafterward.
“Jared, don't try to act tough. You're not strong enough to ring the Dragon Bell. Let's see if anyone elsefrom the Supreme Honor Rankings dares to try,” Hailey said.novelbin
Jared didn't respond. Nevertheless, his determination to attempt ringing the Dragon Bell was resolute.Moreover, it felt like the Dragon Bell was calling out to him.
