Female Novel
Chapter 2141
Wesley took a deep breath. The corner of his mouth never stopped twitching.
"This can’t be real. Absolutely not! Why would Elder Godfrey choose him?” he said hoarsely. Hetook another deep breath, and without warning, slapped the man with the triangular eyes violentlyon the face.
The crisp sound attracted the attention of the people around them. Holding his face, the man withthe triangular eyes was taken aback, but he dared not utter a word of anger.. He knew that he waspunished
for what he had said just now. At this moment, Fane was r with Wesley. He understood the benefitsthat would come with being the last disciple; after all, that was the reason why so many disciplescovet the spot, but those benefits did not hold much attraction to him.
He held the memory of his predecessor’s great ability, therefore, he did not need any elder to teachhim anything. Moreover, he was full of secrets, and being in close contact with Elder Godfrey wouldput him at risk of his secrets being found out. The loss would outweigh the gains if that were toreally happen.
Besides, he did not really want to be pushed to the cusp of a social struggle.
However, judging by Elder Godfrey’s steadfast eyes and naked finger pointing at him, he did nothave a choice in this matter. It would not do him well to
make Elder Godfrey lose face in front of so many people.
The informal disciples near him were staring at him with shocked eyes and had unconsciouslyparted to make a path for him. He took a deep breath and began taking one heavy step after
another. He glanced back at Noel and Brook, who was still staring at him with disbelief. He did notsay anything to them but continued making his way to the second round platform.novelbin
The gathering spot for roll call was divided into three areas-three round platforms and the squareunderneath them. The first round platform was used only for the elders to announce importantmatters. The second round platform was a large battle platform surrounded by flags and a venue fora duel between disciples. This platform was where Oliver and the other two were standing. ElderGodfrey waved at him, signaling him to stand with the three formal disciples. No matter howunwilling Fane was, he could only bite the bullet and get on with it.
Only then did the First Elder and the Second Elder react. They had gone through extra lengths tomake sure that the disciple they had in mind would get chosen to be Elder Godfrey's last disciple.Hell, they even argued in front of the spectators. This fact alone had caused no end to theirembarrassment, and for what? For an informal disciple whom existence they did not even know ofto be chosen as his last disciple?
The First Elder's face was black as thunder. "What is the meaning of this, Eleventh Elder? Who isthis kid? Why did you choose him to be your last disciple?"
Elder Godfrey arched his brow and calmly said," Because he is excellent in every aspect. Have youforgotten the requirements to be my last disciple? And Fane just so happens to fit that profile so, ofcourse, I would choose him."
