Chapter 2296 Wait
Jared could feel the draconic essence entering his body. He hurriedly sat cross-legged, attempting to merge the two
essences together.
Soon, the two draconic essences combined, and a dazzling light erupted from Jared's chest.
Immediately, the Power of Dragons surged in Jared uncontrollably like wild horses being released into the
wilderness. The powerful energy was about to break through his body and shoot straight into the clouds.
Seeing that, Jared quickly used his Focus Technique. He started refining the Power of Dragons to augment his
cultivation level.
Meanwhile, the people outside the bell tower were growing impatient.
“It's been one hour now. I don't see Jared reaching the top of the bell tower yet. Is he dead in the passage?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“He's only a Third Level Spirit Replicator. I can't believe that he has the courage to try it. Does he have a death
wish?”
“He's from the mundane world, after all. How do you expect him to understand the dangers in our secret realms?”
The crowd started chattering among themselves, assuming that Jared was already dead inside. It had been more
than an hour since his disappearance.
“Ha! He has overestimated himself and lost his life there!” Claus sneered.
At the side, Hailey shot Claus a glare before shifting her attention to the bell tower anxiously.
Deep down, she was worried about Jared's safety. I should've stopped Jared from taking the risk earlier!
Claus noticed the concerned look on Hailey's face. Seeing that, he harbored greater hatred toward Jared.
“Chester, is this the person you've brought with you? Gate of Fire has lost a participant before the competition even
started! If we lose this time, the Gunderson family shall bear all the cost. Zahrin Sect will not take any
responsibility!” Lamar spoke furiously to Chester.
They belonged to the Gate of Fire, after all. It was the rule to have one participant from one secret realm. With
Jared's absence, they were being put in a disadvantageous position for not having a contestant from the Gate of
Fire.
Chester stayed silent, staring at the bell tower nervously. He was exceedingly worried about Jared's disappearance
too.
“Mr. Yuchamore, I think Jared's dead inside. Let's commence the competition and stop waiting,” Angus said.
Everyone refused to wait any longer. Besides, Sigwin had embarrassed Violet Fulmina Sect that day, and the gang
could not wait to restore their reputation.
Quindon glanced at the bell tower before turning to Chester to say, “Old Mr. Gunderson, it's been more than one
hour. I'll start the competition now without waiting for him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Yuchamore, please wait for a while more. I believe that Mr. Chance will reach the top!” Chester implored.
“Old Mr. Gunderson, so what if he manages to make it to the top? He would be badly injured by then. I'm afraid that
he wouldn't even be able to lift up the hammer to ring the Dragon Bell. Let's not waste time anymore. Everyone is
waiting for the competition to start!” Sigwin uttered in annoyance.
Getting humiliated earlier that day, the upset Sigwin seized that perfect opportunity to vent his anger on Chester.
However, Chester paid no heed to him and looked at Quindon instead. “Mr. Yuchamore, please wait for a while
more.”
Chester was well aware that Quindon was the only one who could decide when the competition would start.
Glancing at Chester, Quindon nodded in response. “All right. I'll wait for five more minutes before starting the
competition.”
Hearing Quindon's words, nobody dared to utter a word and waited.
There was nothing else Chester could do at that moment other than pray silently for Jared to appear soon.
“Jared, please show yourself! You'll be fine!”
Meanwhile, Hailey clenched her fists, praying for Jared too.
