Chapter 1944

Morton’s clan was naturally inferior in comparison to the Dual Sovereign Pavilion. Nheless, hisclan was one of the few great clans in his city and he had been brought up with the belief that hewas chosen one, carrying the burden of making his clan proud.

Then there was the fact that he had never faced failure before so it was no wonder he wasextremely confident in himself. He felt he was unique and was not nurtured by the Dual SovereignPavilion only because of his age. However, he believed that once there, he would surely advancequickly in a short time. He would climb the metaphorical ladder and use the position of the internaldisciple as a stepping stone. In good time, he would be promoted to an elder disciple, and thenthere’s no stopping him to become a chosen disciple.

He might even hold important positions within the pavilion. His clan would surely be proud of himthen. That was why he was unwilling to be deemed equal to Gerald— partly because of hisconfidence and partly because of his inferiority complex.

This little test was akin to an entrance exam so how dared they think he would not be able to lightup the five lights. He had never been so humiliated before.

Morton gave out a loud snort and turned his gaze to scan the crowd. "You all listen closely now.Don't you dare use your level to judge me! I've already said that the sengen pill was speciallyprepared for me so don't blame me for hurting you if you all continue to talk like that."

Immediately, the crowd went dead silent. However, he could not stop them from what they werethinking. There was no denying Morton was very powerful and most of the people present therewould not be able to win in a fight against him but this did not mean that he would be able to light upfive lights.

Everyone had seen for themselves just how difficult it was to light up five lights. It was truly beyondanyone's level. Initially, Gerald did not want to bother Morton with his illusory grandeur and

annoying talk.

Gerald was the complete opposite of him, he liked to get straight to the point so there was no fun intalking to Morton.

However, Morton had gone overboard this time to the extent that even Gerald could not keep hismouth shut. He turned to face Morton and said with a mocking smile, " Why don't you give it a rest?You’re making it sound as if the sengen pill is already in your possession. Am I invisible to you?"

Morton laughed coldly and raised an eyebrow as he looked at Gerald. “Of course not but I wouldsay you're close. In my eyes, you're only a tad bigger than a grasshopper."

Gerald was itching to give Morton an *ss-whooping. "I would have whooped your *ss if it wasn't forthe rules imposed on us. Don't you feel any shame at all? Why don't you show us what you’re reallymade of? Who knows you might be able to change my mind," said he in a louder voice.

Their bickering had turned white-hot and they might even really end up in a fight if the situationcontinued on the way it was. Ambrose had no choice but to step in though he must admit he wasenjoying the show. "No fighting during the test. If the two of you want to give it a go, you should goto the pavilion’s battle arena after passing the test."

It was only natural they would listen to Ambrose as the consequences of not doing so were notsomething they could afford. Both of them gave out a scoff at the same time and turned to lookaway.

It seemed like Morton had really gotten under Gerald's skin and the latter thought he should get thisover with. "Who’s next? I’ll go if no one wants to go next!" It was better to prove to Morton that hewas indeed much stronger than him than to stand there and listen to him yap away. He planned toshut Morton up for good—that good for nothing brat.novelbin
