A warrior from Hestia teased, “So impressions can kill. They stubbornly cling on to some of the preconceived
notions, thinking that warriors from the Hestia Continent are all weak. They deserve to die!”
The moment he said that, he got angry gazes from disciples of the Purple Cloud Pavilion and the Nimbus Alliance.
One of the disciples from the Purple Cloud Pavilion shouted, “Stop being snarky! It’s just that Jack was too good at
acting, so he ended up confusing Chris!”
Hearing that, a warrior from the Hestia Continent immediately shouted back, “Acting? Since when did he pretend to
be anything else? Has Jack ever said that he was weak? Did he ever say that he couldn’t beat the others? Did he
talk about his status as an alchemist?
“It’s clearly been others who were painting an image of Jack, so how could you blame Jack? They’re the ones who
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad trouble seeing clearly, but all of you are trying to say that others are acting. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll be
laughed at?!”
The disciple from the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s face reddened in anger. He gritted his teeth as he looked at the
warrior from Hestia. Even though the warriors from Hestia numbered less than the two other worlds, arguments
were not something that could be won with numbers.
The warriors from Hestia had logic by their side. In the first place, Jack never attempted to hide. Secondly, Jack was
strong enough that they were able to fire back at anything that was said.
At that moment, the warriors from Hestia realized that they finally had a standing. Before this, they kept on being
mocked until their faces were red, but they never dared to talk back.
At last, they finally found a way to regain their dignity. Even the warriors who were not very talkative would add a
word or two.
The viewing area suddenly turned into Hestia Continent’s home field. The warriors from the other two continents
were forced to look on as the warriors from Hestia did what they wanted.
In the isolated space, Chris was already red in anger. It was not because of anything Jack said, but because of his
calm and casual behavior. The more Jack acted like that, the angrier Chris got. The anger in his heart was about to
override any rationality he had.
“Don‘t be so pleased with yourself, Jack!” he scoffed. “Once I deal with him, you’re next. You’re smarter than some
others, I’ll give you that. You cleared the mark I left on you not long after you entered the isolated space, making
me lose for a while.”
Jack let out a laugh after he heard that and confessed, “Actually, I wasn’t planning on getting rid of the mark. I was
looking forward to you finding me, but someone else asked me to… To prevent any unnecessary trouble, I ended up
clearing the mark.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChris looked at Jack in disdain. “Bragging again, are we? Do you think we can’t see through your lies? Bragging is
the only thing you’re left with right now, huh?”
“You weren’t planning on clearing the mark, you say? You were looking forward to me finding you? You’re able to
say such arrogant words! Every participant is an enemy after entering the isolated space. Who’d remind you to do
such a thing?”
“What would they gain from that? You were looking forward to me finding you? Did you want to die by my hand so
badly? You can’t even lie properly! You’re clearly afraid of dying, but you insist on trying to defend yourself! How
laughable!”
Jack raised an eyebrow, shaking his head helplessly. “I was telling the truth. It’s up to you if you want to believe it…”
The warriors at the viewing area suddenly fell silent after hearing their conversation.
