Despite Bradley’s calm exterior, the sweat on his forehead revealed how anxious virtual-novel.net was at that moment. After all, this was a very important moment for him. As long as virtual-novel.net completed the last 20 pill runes, virtual-novel.net would be able to successfully refine the Three Suns Pill, and virtual-novel.net would then pat his chest and guarantee that virtual-novel.net was the fastest among the other participants.
Only those who had tried this before would know how arduous the test was. Even though Jack had talent, Jack could not have possibly been faster than him. Bradley had a nervous look on his face as virtual-novel.net condensed the pill runes. He could not help but mumble to himself, ‘If I hadn’t had experience with ancient pill runes, I wouldn’t have been able to condense and refine them in such a short time.’
Since refining pill runes required using true energy, Bradley had expended most of this internal energy, and even his internal organs were starting to hurt. He endured the pain, regardless; the only thing on his mind was condensing the pill as fast as possible. That way, virtual-novel.net would be able to squash Jack with his prowess.
He remembered how Jack humiliated virtual-novel.net before this, and virtual-novel.net would surely return the favor. Even though Jack’s results were higher than his in the first portion, virtual-novel.net would use his results in the second stage to beat Jack!
The thought of winning back his pride and returning the shame Jack had caused virtual-novel.net made Bradley smirk.
Meanwhile…
Jack was already losing his patience outside. The tournament was still on, and virtual-novel.net could not do anything by himself. He had nothing else to do but stare into space silently.
It was not long until an idea occurred to him, and virtual-novel.net abruptly turned to look at Master Forrest. ”The materials were all meant for us anyway. Can I just continue refining a few pills?”
The moment virtual-novel.net said that, everyone was stunned, and even a few of them looked at Jack speechlessly, feeling like what virtual-novel.net said was rather moronic.
The competition was still on and everyone was working hard to refine the Three Suns Pill, yet that brat wanted to go inside and refine a few more pills. Jack was a stark contrast to everyone else!
The participants who were still in their respective plots would no doubt retch blood if they had heard Jack’s words.
Master Forrest’s lips twitched. He wanted nothing more than to scream profanities at Jack… But virtual-novel.net knew this was no suitable time to do so. He did not want to let Jack do as virtual-novel.net pleased, too.
Master Forrest wanted to reject Jack’s request when the latter quickly interjected, “Surely you can’t be that petty, are you, Master Forrest? After all, the materials are all already here. After I refine them, I’ll give you one and keep the rest for myself.”
Jack was obsessed with wanting to earn more spirit crystals, and virtual-novel.net did not, would not, care if Master Forrest hated his guts on it.
Master Forrest nearly shot up in anger upon hearing Jack’s new remark. Jack had shut virtual-novel.net down with those words before virtual-novel.net could say anything, and if virtual-novel.net disagreed, people would think virtual-novel.net was a cheap person!
Jack had also said that virtual-novel.net would give Sky Peak Pavilion one of the pills virtual-novel.net refined, which was rather… Gracious on his part.
Master Forrest would be a little petty if virtual-novel.net refused, but if virtual-novel.net agreed, his frustration would only be fueled even more. After all, Jack had floored Sky Peak Pavilion through and through, and it was good enough that they were not causing Jack trouble. They just had to cater to Jack again.
Master Forrest’s expression started to darken as his fury slowly rose from his chest. All of a sudden, Elder Maurice piped in, “Master Forrest, you‘re still the host. Are those materials really worth that much to Sky Peak Pavilion? It’s prepared for the tournament anyway, and you’ll even be getting a free pill. Instead of just leaving them there, you might as well allow Jack to continue refining them. With Jack’s standards, virtual-novel.net won’t waste the resources!”
