"The matter is already set in stone, and it cannot be overturned," spoke Mr. Zayne, the helplessness evident in his voice. He stared at Fane seemingly sympathetically as he added, "In a while, the other two will come over. I'll introduce everyone."Fane said nothing as he stood quietly, but Rudy struggled to remain calm. He pulled at Fane's arm and whispered, "If that's the case, then you can't go. We both know this is a trap. We should avoid Elder Rick. He's so despicable, and we can't let him get what he wants!"Fane raised an eyebrow before nodding as he whispered to Rudy, "You're right, but he probably anticipated me rejecting to participate in this tournament, however. You'd be doing exactly what he wants."Rudy was baffled at this, his eyes widening at Fane's words. "What do you mean? If we reject it, we'll still be doing as he wants?"Fane sighed in exasperation as he nodded slightly before saying, "If I reject them now, I'd be rejecting the higher-ups. Those people won't ha

Fane had no intention to befriend the other two men, while these two looked down on Fane.After everything that had happened before, Mr. Zayne was noticeably much more careful. As they advanced, he would regularly stop and study their surroundings for any signs of ambush.Fane and the two green-robed men merely closed their eyes and rested in the vessel.Initially, they were still quite composed, but Claude started to lose his patience after a while. Claude looked up at Fane and said, "I don't know what Elder Rick was thinking for praising you so much. We seventh-grade alchemists are the leads here. Make sure you don't drag us down and disappoint Elder Rick!"Claude talked like he was lecturing Fane, which made Fane frown. He loathed anyone who spoke to him in such a manner, and Claude acted like he was far above Fane.If Claude had said anything else, Fane might not have reacted so badly, but Claude's tone sparked Fane's fuse.He looked up at Claude and said, "The one thing I ha

Master Forrest stood up as he waved at the three behind him and said, albeit with false humility, "These are the disciples the Sky Peak Pavilion has raised for many years. They can't compare to your disciples from the Phoenix Valley, but they are skilled in their own right. We brought them here today to hopefully show some of their skill."Master Forrest continued to introduce the three. The man at the front was Conrad Suller, while the other two behind Conrad were Jameson Lagey and Bradley Cooper respectively.Each of them was about Fane's age and sported seventh-grade alchemist badges. After Master Forrest finished his introduction, Elder Maurice took the initiative to introduce his alchemists.Elder Maurice walked forward and looked at Claude and Benedict, both standing in front of Fane, and he had a pleased expression on his face when he did.However, his face froze the moment he looked at Fane, especially at the sixth-grade alchemist badge on Fane's chest. He widened his eyes

During the entire exchange, Fane never lost his composure as he merely stood behind them quietly. Even if he heard some of the things they have said, he barely reacted to them. It was as if they were not talking about him at all.Claude and Benedict, on the other hand, could not contain how pleased they felt. After being pulled over, they managed to hear some of the conversations despite Elder Maurice trying his best to lower his volume. Of course, they knew why Elder Maurice was so visibly irked.Claude smirked as he looked at Fane, the nuisance he was. If it was anyone else, Elder Maurice would not have been so angry, and the matter would not be in such a mess.The moment he thought back to how arrogant Fane was in the vessel, Claude felt a build-up of fury within him. Oh, how he wanted Fane to however much dirt he could! Fane ought to know to choose his battles; whom he could offend and could not.He raised an eyebrow as he deliberately leaned toward Fane, whispering so none cou

Elder Maurice was already infuriated by Elder Rick for meddling in his affairs. He was already planning on fighting back against Elder Rick, hence why he could boldly applaud Fane's words.Fane had earned an ample amount of Elder Maurice's favor.Elder Maurice looked up slightly. "Even though I think you're right, you still need the right to say those words. If your pride is just an empty tin can, your words are all meaningless without the power to back up your claims."Elder Maurice put his hand on Fane's shoulder as he added, albeit with a relatively firm voice, "If you do well this time, I'll make sure to support you. If you don't do well, you won't just have made an enemy of Elder Rick, but me as well."Elder Maurice's words placed an invisible pressure against Fane. Additionally, his words also sparked interesting expressions from the rest of their companions.Claude felt like Fane had gone overboard with bragging this time, and he might have just rocked a boat he should not
