No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 2131

Noel also felt that the atmosphere was too stagnant, and both Jackie and Wesley were on the brink of a fight. He

glanced at Jackie with a slightly worried look in his eyes before he sneakily stretched out his hand a tan area,

unseen by the others, to pull Jackie’s clothes, all in an attempt to remind Jackie not get too agitated from Wesley’s

provocation

The corners of Jackie’s mouth curled upward. He knew what Noel meant by pulling on his clothes…but he ignored it.

Wesley was trembling with anger as he stared at Jackie resentfully. Compared to Wesley’s furious expression, Jackie

was extremely calm. Although he was arguing with Wesley when he said those words, his expression remained

stoic.

Wesley gritted his teeth as he spoke, “My brother will never let you off the hook; he’ll kill you!”

“What else can you do besides making threats?” responded Jackie calmly.

These words were like a big rock stuffed into Wesley’s throat, and Wesley felt that his interaction with Jackie would

only make his blood boil. His sensible nerves were at the brink of disappearing, too. His eyes had reddened like red-

colored glass beads, and they almost popped out of his sockets. At this moment, their surroundings suddenly

quieted down.

Everybody looked forward subconsciously and saw a dozen or so men in their fifties or sixties, in dark blue robes,

walking steadily toward the big round platform behind them. Such a scene caused everybody to instantly hold their

breath. Jackie immediately saw his old acquaintance. Elder Godfrey was at the last position, but Jackie felt that he

had the most overpowering aura.

However, he had a slightly cold expression on his face and did not look like he was the one getting a last disciple

today. These people were naturally the formal elders of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion. Although they had different

appearances, they had similar auras. They had the demeanor as men without losing their majestic temperament as

elders.

After all 11 of them went on top of the last platform, they sat down from east to west according to the order of

their strengths. At this moment, Wesley did not dare act so irate, even though his anger flared still.

With that, he turned around and glared at Jackie fiercely. Wesley lowered his voice and hissed, “You just wait and

see!”

Wesley then walked a couple of steps forward to keep some distance between himself and Jackie. Jackie sighed

lightly, finally no longer having to be interacting with this disgusting fly. Noel and Brook let out a long sigh of relief

when they saw how Wesley turned around to leave. Brook slowly spoke as he placed his hands on his chest and a

tangled expression appeared on his face, “You both were talking so sharply at one another that I thought you’d

break out into another fight.”

Noel also chimed in, “You two met squarely in the argument, and it felt like you’ve reached the point where only

death would stop the argument.”

Jackie raised his brows and said disapprovingly,” Naturally, the argument will only end when one of us dies. People

like Wesley will never stop once somebody offends him. He’ll only cease to do anything when I manage to trample

him under my feet.”

Brook sighed helplessly. “Actually, I wish to persuade you now as it’s better to take a step back. However, I feel that

masters like you have your own persistence and arrogance. It’ll be useless no matter what I say.”

Jackie raised his brows. “This has nothing to do with my inner persistence and arrogance. I’m not the one who

caused him trouble. My principle has always been that I won’t offend anybody if they leave me alone. Why should I

spoil him?”

Chapter 2132

Jackie’s tone was extremely calm when he said this. It sounded like he was simply telling Brook what he wanted to

eat and drink. However, every word he said showed his temperament. Brook could not help but look at Jackie

deeply, not knowing how to respond.

Jackie was in no mood to think of their opinion toward him at this moment. Instead, he placed all his attention at the

platform behind.

All 11 elders had been seated, and Jackie silently observed the core power of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion. No

matter how many disciples there were in the sect, the people who truly supported the Dual Sovereign Pavilion were

still these people, who were the strongest among all.

The person seated at the first position was, of course, the First Elder. He looked at the disciples below the platform

with a kind look in his eyes and a smile on his young-looking face. Compared to the First Elder, the Second Elder

had a strict expression on his face as there was a calculative look in his eyes. He looked at the disciples under the

platform indifferently.

All the other elders had their own specialties, but all of them seemed to have an overbearing temperament. In the

end, Jackie focused his line of sight at the Eleventh Elder, Elder Godfrey. He looked the same, but his eyes lacked

anger and suspicions. Only indifference and calmness remained in his eyes as he seemed to be uninterested in

anything.

At this moment, almost all the disciples were observing the formal elders on the platform, like what Jackie did.

Although other disciples knew more about the formal disciples compared to Jackie, they still could not help but

observe the elders as if they wanted to observe something from these people.

Jackie raised his brows and asked in a low voice, “Why is the sect master nowhere to be seen?”

Although the elders were the core power of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion, the sect master was the person in power

and the decision-maker who issued the orders. Why did the sect master not show himself when all eleven elders

were gathered here?

Noel slightly shook his head. “We have no idea about this. In fact, the process of getting a disciple today means

nothing much to the sect master. After all, the Eleventh Elder is in the eleventh place, and he hasn’t grown strong.

The sect master may not pay much attention to this. On top of that, our sect master has always been extremely

mysterious. I’ve only seen him once after joining the sect for such a long period.”

To this, Jackie no longer questioned it. Nonetheless, his curiosity toward the Dual Sovereign Pavilion Master grew.

The First Elder stood up as he felt that the timing was correct when he saw that the disciples had quieted down.

Although the First and Second Elders kept fighting among themselves, the First Elder was still in the first position. He

was the leader of all the elders, and he was the one to make any announcements at such moments.

He stood up straight and walked three steps forward at a steady pace. He still had a gentle look in his eyes, but the

expression on his face had turned into a dignified one. He slightly cleared his throat before he spoke, “Originally,

there’s no need to alert so many people when an elder is just taking disciples. However, there’s something else we

need to announce to all you disciples, so we gathered everybody here.”

The First Elder’s words puzzled everyone. The disciples only thought that they were gathered for one reason, and

that was to witness who would be the Eleventh Elder’s last disciple. Unexpectedly, there was something else they

wished to announce.

Jackie also raised his brows. When Noel informed him of this matter, Jackie was surprised about the reason to

involve so many people when it was just the acceptance of a last disciple. It looked like he had been making silly

assumptions about the elders’ thoughts as they had their own plans.

The First Elder waved his hands to stop the disciples from their discussion, and the disciples continued to listen to

the Elder’s announcement.

Chapter 2133 The Elder spoke loudly, “Several days ago, the elder of the Thousand Leaves Pavilion visited us and

told us something extremely important. I’m sure everybody knows that our West Cercei State only has two fourth -

grade sects. One of us is located in the North while the other is in the South, and we do not interfere with one

another. Recently, the upper management of the Thousand Leaves Pavilion received news that the Corpse Pavilion

in the South had secretly transported a large number of disciples over to the North. We’re sure that this isn’t good

news. Hence, everybody needs to get themselves ready during this period.”

The news was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples. This was the first time everybody heard about this, and

their eyes were widened. Originally, no one dared to discuss anything as the elders were present. However, none of

them could suppress themselves when they heard the news, and chatters erupted in the area.

“What? The Corpse Pavilion is coming to the North to cause us trouble again? We’ve been in a peaceful state all

these years. What do they wish to do here?”

“They must’ve gone crazy. Although the Corpse Pavilion is also a fourth-grade sect, the Thousand Leaves Pavilion at

our northern side is also a fourth-grade sect. Both sects have equal strengths, and we’re separated by the Mount

Beasts. Isn’t it good for us to continue developing without interfering with one another?”

“Do they have other plans in mind?”

“No matter what, this news must be true as the First Elder announced it in front of so many of us here. We might go

to war next. I’ve been too optimistic to think that we won’t be going to war soon after the matters regarding the

Muddled Origin Clan have been placed aside.”

Some of the slightly smarter people immediately recalled the unexplainable actions by the sect. Some of them

slapped their thighs and said, “No wonder our sect still recruited a new batch of informal disciples after the

Thousand Leaves Pavilion stopped the war. This is the reason, it seems

All sorts of discussion noises hummed continuously by their ears like a hundred flies. Among all the disciples, Jackie

was the only one who had the most information about the matter. After all, he had personally traveled to Mount

Beasts, and he also knew what the Corpse Pavilion’s disciples wanted to do. On top of that, he also had information

about the Dual Sovereign Pavilion and Thousand Leaves Pavilion’s plans as he heard Elder Godfrey’s speculations.

The sounds of discussion under the stage grew louder, but the First Elder had no intention of stopping the disciples.

He only looked at the disciples with a kind look in his eyes and a smile on his face.

Jackie slightly raised his brows. The more the First Elder acted in such a way, the more Jackie felt that this old man

was a cunning character with unknown plans. After a little while later, the First Elder interrupted the crowd’s

discussion by speaking again, “I know that everyone will come up with their own plans after receiving this news.

However, I will remind everybody now that it doesn’t matter what your plans are, as the most important thing is

what the sect wants you to do. The situation isn’t so bad yet, and everybody can continue to carry out your tasks in

peace. I’ll immediately notify everybody if there are any arrangements.”

Such words did not comfort everyone. Instead, it only agitated them more. Nonetheless, nobody dared step

forward to say anything. After all, they had to step forward and service the sect after enjoying so many years of

grooming by the Dual Sovereign Pavilion as the sect’s disciples.

The First Elder glanced at the Eleventh Elder, who was seated at the fat west corner. He mentally scoffed when he

saw how calm and unwavering the Eleventh Elder was. However, nothing was seen on his face.

“Alright! The discussion about this shall end here as there’s something else that we need to announce tonight.”

Chapter 2134 The First Elder slightly moved his body to the side after he said this and looked toward Elder Godfrey.

Elder Godfrey, of course, could feel the First Elder’s line of gaze that seemed kind. There still was not much of an

expression on his face as he stood up stiffly from his seat and walked toward the central part. He did not stand in

front of the First Elder when he arrived behind the First Elder. Instead, he stopped about three steps away from the

First Elder.

He then signaled for the First Elder to continue speaking of this matter. Everybody knew that the main agenda had

started when they saw the Eleventh Elder stepping forward. Although the previous news caused everybody to be

uneasy, no one forgot about the reason they had gathered on this spot.

The First Elder slightly nodded. “I’m sure everyone knows that the Eleventh Elder wishes to recruit a last disciple,

and today is the day he’ll announce his choice. However, I’ve also communicated with the Eleventh Elder before

this, and the Eleventh Elder doesn’t know much about our outstanding disciples as he’s so focused on training

during normal days. Hence, we’ve gathered all the disciples here today with hopes of choosing the most excellent

disciple among you as the last disciple.”

The First Elder spoke of how they would choose the most excellent disciples among them, but in truth, he only

meant the formal disciples. The informal disciples were there just to make up the number.

After the First Elder finished speaking, he looked toward where the formal disciples were at, focusing on looking at

Oliver and Calvert. He was about to continue speaking when the Second Elder, who had been silently sitting on the

second chair, suddenly stood up, much to everyone’s surprise.

The First Elder’s expression stiffened as he looked at the Second Elder with a slightly unhappy look in his eyes.

However, he did not say a word because of his manners. In fact, the First Elder had anticipated that the Second

Elder would step forward at this moment.

The Second Elder also took two steps forward, and rather expressionless at that. However, he did not stand three

steps behind the First Elder like what the Eleventh Elder did. Instead, he stepped forward and stood by the First

Elder’s side.

He did not look at the First Elder’s expression and instead turned his gaze toward the disciples present. Everybody

thought that the Second Elder would say something as he stood forward at this moment. However, the Second

Elder remained silent. He acted as if his sudden movement was just a random act.

The First Elder secretly rolled his eyes. The others might not understand what the Second Elder meant, but he

understood what the Second Elder wanted. His eyes landed on Gresham unwillingly and exhaled deeply. “Although

the Eleventh Elder has no idea how many excellent disciples there are, we’ve been paying attention to the

outstanding disciples in the sect while we’re training. Right now, we happen to have three outstanding disciples.”

He looked toward the direction of the formal disciples before he continued to speak. “Oliver Sayer, Calvert Atkins,

and Gresham Potter, please come forward.”

After that, three people among the formal disciples came walking out of their teams. The three of them were tall,

handsome, and were definitely people of outstanding talent.

The first person walking in front of everybody else looked slightly similar to Wesley, and there was no doubt that he

was Wesley’s elder brother, Oliver. However, Oliver seemed to have better manners than Wesley.

The three of them strode forward and stood in front of everyone, and everyone stared at the three.

Even though thousands of pairs of eyes stared at them, however, the three of them kept their composure, and

nothing else happened.

The man with a mustache standing in front of Jackie could not help but scoff coldly. “Just like what you said, they’ve

already predetermined their choices. If so, why did they make it sound like all the disciples of our sect are given the

choice when they initially mentioned the matter? I’m sure that many people had been looking forward to this for a

couple of days, and none of them realized that the group of people had been predetermined. This is really…”

The long-faced man standing beside him chimed aloofly, “Although they’ve already predetermined their choices,

they still have to go through the process.”

Chapter 2135

The informal disciples surrounding Jackie had unnatural expressions when they heard this. They must be thinking of

how hypocritical these formal elders were. Jackie was not surprised by this as no matter how he interpreted these

three people, they were the most suitable choice.

The First Elder looked at those three under the platform with an extremely genial look in his eyes as if these were

his grandsons.

The First Elder spoke in a gentle tone, “The three of you are extremely talented and are extremely suitable to be

the Eleventh Elder’s last disciples, seeing as none of you are elder disciples of other elders. However, it doesn’t

matter how suitable the three of you are, as there’s only one availability. This is why you three need to completely

show your talents and strength today to catch the Eleventh Elder’s attention.”

What the First Elder had said immediately caused the disciples gathered under the platform to have another heated

discussion.

Noel said softly, “Regardless, they still have to go through a fight in the end, and the results will be decided with

their strength.”

Just like what the First Elder said, the three of them were suitable in every aspect, but there was only one position.

Hence, they still had to battle to fight for the position, and the most excellent disciple would become the Eleventh

Elder’s last disciple.

The Eleventh Elder raised his brows after he heard this, and it looked like he wanted to say something, but the First

Elder paid no mind to the Eleventh Elder. At this moment, his attention was focused on those three formal disciples

standing under the platform.

He still had a gentle expression on his face as he said, “The battle platform in front will be where you three shall

show your talents and strength. The three of you shall take turns in joining the battle, and those with the most wins

will be the most talented disciple.”

The disciples gathered below started getting excited after the First Elder finished speaking. It was a meaningful

thing for the disciples to witness a great battle. They would be able to learn battle techniques on top of increasing

their experience just by witnessing a battle between disciples with great talents.

However, Gresham, who had been extremely quiet, suddenly knelt on one knee. “First Elder! I think that it’s unfair if

only the three of us are fighting in a single battle!”

Gresham had spoken clearly and loudly, thus everyone could hear him. His words had effectively stunned them, and

they stared at Gresham with widened eyes. They secretly admired Gresham for being so daring as what he said

was equal to refuting the First Elder’s face on the spot. He was saying that the First Elder was unfair for arranging

these battles.

Of course, the First Elder’s expression darkened, and he looked at Gresham sharply. “Unfair? How is this unfair?”

Gresham had been kneeling on the floor with his head down all the time. However, there was not much respect in

the tone as he spoke, “Although Oliver is also a formal disciple, he’s much stronger than the two of us. On top of

that, he’s already in the final stage of the innate level while myself and Calvert are only in the intermediate stage of

the innate level. It’s unfair that we have to fight him from a lower realm.”

What Gresham had said darkened the First Elder’s expression. He was about to reprimand Gresham when the

Second Elder, who had been standing aside without saying a word, suddenly spoke up,” Gresham is right. It’s unfair

for them to fight like this.”

There was instantly a tit-for-tat momentum at the gathering spot.

Although Brook had joined the Dual Sovereign Pavilion for several years, he had always been a runner disciple and

had never seen such big scenes. At this moment, however, he was amazed by what he saw as the First Elder and

Second Elder seemed to be getting into a fight in front of all the disciples. He looked toward Gresham and could not

help but lamented, “Gresham is so daring. How could he say something like this? Isn’t he afraid that the First Elder

will cause him trouble later on?”

Noel smiled when he heard what Brook said. “I would’ve said the same thing if I’m Gresham.”
