A few among the crowd agreed with what the warrior from the Hestia Continent said.
A warrior from the Chaos Continent sneered as he said, “The warriors from the Golden Continent sure love their
double standards. Only they’re allowed to have prodigies and not other worlds. Only they’re allowed to be cruel,
and no other worlds can. Jack did exactly what they did, but they see it as some heinous crime. It’s like Jack’s a
demon straight out of hell. What a joke!”
A verbal riot broke out in the area near the Red Sun Monument as they jeered at the Golden Continent. Even
wandering warriors from Hestia raised their voices and cursed at the Golden Continent’s warriors, calling them
shameless and despicable, to which those from the Golden Continent heard it all.
The warriors from the Golden Continent were forced to lower their heads and accept everything. After all, they
would just get laughed at if they tried to be stubborn at that moment.
Jack did not care about the arguments that were happening below at all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe only had one thought in mind at that moment, which was to climb the Red Sun Monument and get the golden
badge.
He already had the black iron badge and the bronze badge. If he got the golden badge, he would have gathered all
three. Even though the rules did not say what he would achieve if he managed to get all three badges, he had a
feeling it would be something noteworthy. Jack would even manage to get other valuable items in each area he
crossed.

After half an hour, he arrived at the 420-meter mark when he suddenly felt the ground beneath him heating up
before a ray of light shot up in front of him.
Jack looked down and noticed that five million spirit crystals had suddenly appeared in front of him. He let out a
smile.
Warriors who arrived at the 420-meter mark would receive five million spirit crystals. If he continued for another 30
meters, the Red Sun Monument would award him with five million spirit crystals and an eighth-grade pill.
Jack took a deep breath and placed the spirit crystals into Mustard Seed.
He had accumulated quite a bit of wealth as he had about 40 million spirit crystals in total. Even chosen disciples of
ninth-grade clans did not have as much as him!
However, it was still far from enough. If he wanted ninth-grade crystals, he would need even more.
He sighed as he continued upward.

Back at the foot of the monument, the discussions about Jack’s skills slowly dwindled.
They started to talk about how far Jack would be able to climb. To regain a fraction of their dignity, the Golden
Continent’s warriors started to demean and belittle him.
“I admit he’s very strong. He’s probably able to place in the top ten of a holy-grade clan. Even so, he’ll only be able
to get to four hundred and eighty meters at most, no higher. After so long, only three people have managed to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmclimb to the peak and obtain the golden badge.”
“No matter how strong Jack is, he’ll never be able to face someone at the top three of a holy- grade clan. It’s not
like I’m trying to insult him, but he came from a meager place. He‘s a warrior from Hestia, and all of us know what
Hestia’s overall strength is like. They’re at the bottom of third-grade worlds. Jack being able to have those skills is
already a miracle…”
These opinions were agreed on by all the warriors from the Golden Continent.
They started to add oil to the flames and said that Jack would never be able to reach the peak. Even being able to
reach the 480-meter mark would be a huge accomplishment.
A warrior from the Azure Clan said loudly, “Don’t think that we’re trying to insult Jack. We’re just saying things as it
is. Just look at the four-hundred-and-twenty meter area. Only ten people from the Hestia Continent have managed
to reach there…”
“Two hundred people from White Marsh Continent managed it, and three hundred and twenty-five from Chaos
Continent got in. The Golden Continent already has over six hundred, so the overall strength of each continent is
obvious here. That’s why we say that Jack has a limit to how strong he can be. There’s no way he’s stronger than
every warrior in the Golden Continent!”
