”You b*stard!” snarled Mark. “You still think that you can do as you please, but you’ll quickly realize otherwise!”
Jack merely sported a small smile, not caring about what Mark was saying at all.
Gent, on the other hand, merely pursed his lips helplessly as he looked at Mark, who was next to him. He wanted to tell
Mark at that moment that there was no point saying anything then, it was better to wait for the results before silencing
Jack with it.

Time slowly ticked away, and after half an hour, it was finally Rudy’s turn to go through the test on the condensing
plate. At that moment, Jack slowly opened his eyes. Rudy straightened his back as he silently tried to motivate
himself.
The more he acted like that, the less confident he seemed. He had encountered too many geniuses recently, so
Rudy‘s confidence was already shattered. Right before he got to the test, Rudy turned to look at Jack.
Jack merely nodded at Rudy silently. With that, Rudy took a deep breath before he entered the area of the test.
To preserve the fairness of the test, the candidate and the condensing plate would be shrouded by a gray barrier
the moment the test started. Outsiders would not be able to see the contents of the test and would not be able to
affect the results of the tested participant as well. They would only be able to see the final results after the barrier
vanished.
The two who came before Rudy had both failed. One of them managed to get 28 pill runes, but the last two did not
reach a 50-percent refinement rate, so they had lost the right to enter.
Another participant had completed 35 pill runes, but 10 of them were not at a 50-percent refinement rate. In the
end, he only scored 25 and failed to enter.
The two participants thus left the condensing plate dejectedly, evidently in despair for their future. Only then did they
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrealize how bad they were, not even able to get the right to enter the city.
Rudy felt the pressure heightening when he saw the two participants before him leaving empty-handed. With so many
people focused on Rudy behind him as well, he felt like two boulders were crushing his shoulders. However, he could no
longer back down. He could hear the wind in his ears as the gray barrier sealed him and the condensing plate within.
Only he and the condensing plate in front of him were left in the world.
With a flash of golden light, 90 incomplete pill runes appeared on the condensing card. As long as he completed 30 of
them, he would be able to enter the city without needing to rely on Jack. He silently motivated himself as his hands
started to move constantly. Waves of dense pill aura were condensed into pill runes.
Jack frowned as he stared in the direction where Rudy was isolated by the barrier, feeling rather worried. Even if he could
bring Rudy in if he failed, failure would be too heavy of a blow for him, and Jack did not want to see him in that depressed
state. After all, the two of them had established a firm friendship along the way.
