- Chapter 2943 -
Jack had been far too quiet, but Aaron did not seem to mind. Just by listening to their conversations, Jack slowly
understood. The various rules after entering the inner city were making the Whirling World more and more interesting.
The inner city was actually an immense palace. There were already over ten thousand alchemists gathered there. The
center of the inner city had a massive array that was about a hundred feet in length. The array was called the Heaven
Array. It was an ancient array that had already been lost to the Hestia Continent. The alchemists gathered in the inner
city all sat around the array.
Aaron raised an eyebrow and said, “The ones who are sitting in the innermost circle are the alchemists with incredible

Mitchell Turner from Phoenix Valley. The two are said to possess the same level of skills. Before entering this tournament,
their names have always appeared next to each other. They’re the model examples for all young alchemists...”
“Even the alchemists that were a generation older treat them with respect as well. However, after this tournament,
Rudeus’ name is going to be listed behind Mitchell’s.”
Jack nodded before asking, “Did Rudeus get a bronze treasure while Mitchell got a black treasure?”
Aaron’s eyes lit up as he nodded vigorously, “You’re so smart.”
Jack sighed helplessly, feeling a lot better about Aaron.
Mainly, Aaron seemed to be a little dumb when it came to talking and doing things in general. Even if interacting
with someone like him would take a bit more effort, he would still not need to be worried about being betrayed.
It let Jack relax quite a bit. The three of them talked as they walked forward. In fifteen minutes, they finally entered
the inner city. It was just like Aaron had said, the whole inner city was basically a massive palace.
Jack looked up and saw that the ceiling had been carved with various beasts. There were uncountable pillars in the
inner palace. Looking inside, a large group of alchemists was gathered in front. There were at least ten thousand of
them.
Jack frowned. He did not like going to crowded places at all. Every time he did, he did not feel like himself. However,
he had to go in even if he did not like it. There was at least ten thousand people inside.
After he entered, it realized it was not that crowded at all. Everyone took out mats from their storage spaces and placed
them on the floor, sitting down. Those who were friendlier with each other would sit closer, while those who were not that
friendly would sit further apart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack looked at everyone, and noticed that all their expressions were all incredibly serious. He looked up at the centermost
position.
After Aaron’s introductions, Jack saw the leaders, which were Rudeus from the Scarlet Pavilion and Mitchell from Phoenix
Valley. The two of them sat facing each other in the middle of the array. They had incredibly dark looks on their faces, it
was as if their fathers had just died.
As usual, Jack did not want any unnecessary clamor, and sat down at a comer.
Aaron had been planning on sitting further inside, but Jack didn’t want to. Aaron did not know anyone else, so he sat at a
secluded spot with Jack. Even though everyone there was not that strong, it was still possible to hear what was spoken
from afar if one did not deliberately lower their voice.
