No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 2427

Jackie had the confidence, so it was natural that he did not want to remain with Heavenly Pills. “I know you’re

sincere in your words, but I’ve already set a goal for myself long ago. I won’t sway in my vision so easily.

“I have to go to the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance. There might be a lot of masters that’ll try to suppress me,

but I believe that the added pressure will only give me more motivation and spur me forward”

Jackie’s determined words had taken the vice-treasurer aback, baffling the man. He did not want to see Jackie

leave. The ability and talent that Jackie had shown earlier made it evident to him that Jackie was a prodigy that

must not be released.

If Jackie stayed with Heavenly Pills, Jackie would no doubt bring them tremendous benefits.

Then, his own stock would rise greatly, and he might even become an elder in the clan.

Jackie immediately understood after he glanced at the vice-treasurer that the man would not give up easily. After

taking a deep breath, Jackie continued, “Heavenly Pills has helped me a lot, and I surely won’t forget what they’ve

done for me. If I make a name for myself in the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance, I’ll definitely come to Heavenly

Pills’ aid should they encounter any trouble. Please, allow me to fulfill my goal!”

Jackie hurriedly bowed at the vice-treasurer before he added, ‘”I’ll always remember your recommendation.”

When the vice-treasurer heard that, he could not help but frown. He swallowed the words that had already been at

the tip of his tongue, It was obvious that Jackie was already determined. If he remained obstinate, he might

completely screw things up. If Jackie hated him, then it would be a great loss.

The vice-treasurer mulled over it for a long time before he nodded helplessly. All he could do was pray that Jackie’s

words had not been lies.

“Since you’re already so determined, I won’t stop you. I hope you’ll remember your words today.'”

Jackie nodded earnestly, showing that he would not forget his words. Jackie did say those words to escape Heavenly

Pills, but he was always a man of his word.

If Heavenly Pills truly did encounter any problems in the future, he would help where he could.

The vice-treasurer let out a sigh, his face full of regret.

If Jackie had chosen to stay in Heavenly Pills, there were much more benefits to he gained. However, Jackie did not

think Heavenly Pills was enough. Jackie’s heart was already set on the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance, so he had

no choice.

The surroundings were once again plunged into silence. All the students exchanged looks among themselves. In all

their eyes were envy and jealousy. Various emotions mixed together, and they all looked at Jackie with complicated

expressions.

They were no fools, of course. They could tell that the vice-treasurer had been very eager to have Jackie stay. As

long as Jackie stayed, it would bring tremendous benefits to Heavenly Pills in the future.

It was frustrating to compare themselves to Jackie.

Raphael could not help but clench his fists.

The admiration and jealousy in his face threatened to seep out. He wanted so badly to prove himself to the vice-

treasurer, all for the sake of obtaining more resources in the future.

However, the things he would risk his life to achieve were met by Jackie’s disdain. Jackie wanted nothing more than

to climb even higher.

Just as everyone wallowed in their bitterness, Gilbert’s voice was suddenly heard.

“I’ve done it! I’ve succeeded! Look, vice- treasurer! Three hundred pill runes! I’ve done it!

Chapter 2428 Gilbert practically shrieked when he proclaimed his success, and it was obvious how excited he was,

so much so that he was almost tongue-tied, too.

The vice-treasurer, however, frowned, his expression rather stiff.

Gilbert looked at the vice-treasurer with an uncanny expression, wondering why the vice-treasurer gave him such a

peculiar stare. It was as if his results were not even Worth the vice treasurer’s gaze.

The whole situation weirded Gilbert out.

His performance had been incredibly exceptional, so why was he receiving the strange look? He had just learned

the Way of the Pill not too long ago and achieved quite the feat. Someone like him would only appear once every

five or six years in Heavenly Pills!

Why, then, was the vice-treasurer not happy at all looking at him? Gilbert’s lips twitched as he immediately shot a

look at his good friend, Damien.

Gilbert then noticed that Damien was looking at him just as oddly. He could even see a hint of regret and pity in

Damien’s eyes.

Gilbert’s expression abruptly soured. He anxiously looked at everyone around him as his hands shook. “Hey… Why

isn’t anyone saying anything? I passed the vice-treasurer’s benchmark.”

After saying that, he suddenly turned around to look at Andrew.

Andrew was still immersed in condensing his runes.

From his pace, Andrew probably did not need that much more time to complete the vice treasurer’s task.

Alas, Andrew could not compare to Gilbert After all, Gilbert was faster to complete the challenge.

The vice-treasurer coughed slightly as he helplessly muttered, “You did complete the task I asked you to, but…”

The vice-treasurer then paused, unsure of how to explain the situation. He glanced at Jackie before he noticed that

the pill runes Jackie had condensed earlier had been dispersed by Jackie with a wave of his hand.

The area was empty.

This aggravated the vice-treasurer even more. He pursed his lips and suddenly found himself in a difficult spot. Just

as the vice-treasurer was mulling over how he would explain it to Gilbert, Andrew finally completed his last stroke.

Andrew let out a long sigh as he looked around excitedly. When he saw Gilbert standing in front of him, Andrew’s

heart jumped a little

He turned to look at where Gilbert had been before; it was a sea of red in his spot. 300 pill runes were laid out tidily.

Looking at the Scene, the look of excitement on Andrew’s face vanished instantly.

He lost! He still lost!

Nonetheless…he knew that he merely lost because he was younger than Gilbert. He had not lost to Gilbert in talent.

He would be no match for Andrew had Andrew been the same age as him.

However, the vice-treasurer had stated everything clearly. The prize for the competition had been a nomination,

and that had fallen into Gilbert’s hands.

Thinking of that, Andrew could not suppress his indignance.

He rushed forward and sneered, “Alright, you won, but know that I’m not happy about this. If we entered Heavenly

Pills at the same time, you wouldn’t beat me at all!”

Gilbert’s mind, mean while, was racing When he heard those words, he turned around angrily. He clenched his

teeth as he looked at Andrew as if he was about to pounce at any moment.

The vice-treasurer immediately interjected when the situation began to worsen as he said, “What are you two even

fighting for?! I here by announce…the nomination belongs to Jackie!

No one around them reacted oddly exceptt for Gilbert and Andrew. Everyone looked at the two of them with pitiful

expressions.

Gilbert and Andrew were stunned when they heard the vice treasurer’s words, wondering if their ears had tricked

them.

The nomination was Jackie ‘s Why was it his? Was this not a battle between the two of them? Had Jackie not been a

completed It?

Those questions floated about their heads. The two of them could not voice any questions for a moment as they

looked at the vice-treasurer with a stunned expression.
