Chapter 805 - Cannot Be More Arrogant
“Jiang Chen, what’s going on?”
Elder Zhuge intuited that there was something tricky. He walked over quickly. He was quite anxious. If everything went on like this, the result of the next two tests could also be anticipated.
“Elder Zhuge….”
Jiang Chen thought about how he would put it. Then he told the elder through holy awareness what was going on.
“Are you sure?” The furrows of Elder Zhuge’s brows relaxed. He looked serious.
Jiang Chen nodded. He was sure about what he had found out.
“What trick are you playing?” The pretty woman had a hunch. She said loudly, “You people from the Elixir Association can’t afford to lose?”
“Why? The Elixir Association doesn’t have any alchemists from the Three Upper Realms. It doesn’t mean the Elixir Fire Union doesn’t have any either,” the pretty woman said.
She really pissed the Elixir Association off.
Jiang Chen also realized why the pretty woman had managed to achieve such a high position in the Elixir Association. No one could beat her silver tongue and her thick skin.
“Miss Chen Xi, thanks for coming here, though you came for nothing. When you go back, please tell the Elixir Emperor that it’s the Elixir Association that has violated the rule, so the competition couldn’t continue.” The pretty woman said to Chen Xi, since she knew it was impossible for the competition to go on.
Frowning, Chen Xi was pondering something. “When the Elixir Association was in its heyday, they recruited alchemists from the Three Upper Realms, too. And the Elixir Association was pretty proud of that.”
“But this is a different case. This is a competition.”
“However, since no one said in advance that this wasn’t allowed, nobody should be blamed for that.”
“A rule is a rule. As long as they don’t violate the rule, we can’t say they are shameless, but honestly, it’s unfair to the Elixir Association.”
The audience on the square also started to discuss the matter.
Standing in the Elixir Association’s shoes, the Elixir Fire Union’s behavior was intolerable. However, the onlookers could not consider the situation from such a profound level. They only thought the Elixir Fire Union was too smart. Sure, they also understood that the Elixir Association had refused to continue the competition. However, as the pretty woman had pointed out, the Elixir Association canceled this day’s competition after losing the first round.
“I have an idea.” Jiang Chen suddenly said. Pointing at the ten fire pits on the square, he said, “I, alone, will represent the Elixir Association to compete with the Elixir Fire Union. Each furnace will represent one place.”
The whole city dropped into silence after hearing his suggestion.
If there was another way to mention arrogance, that would absolutely be: Jiang Chen!
