Jack slowly turned to face Adler. Lourain was quietly standing below the Path of Fate, looking up at everything that
was happening.
Everyone else thought that Jack was acting too arrogantly with what he said earlier, but Lourain could tell that Jack
had other plans.
Jack was not someone who would let a bit of achievement get to his head. He would never have said that if he did
not have a reason to.
Jack definitely had a goal in doing what he did.
When Adler stepped on the starting point, Lourain immediately understood that Jack had been trying to provoke
Blant so that he would have his subordinates join the challenge.
In truth, Jack was making a gamble as well. He did not know if the ones around Blant had joined the challenge
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbefore. If all of them had already attempted the challenge, then he would have done all of that in vain.
Seeing this, Adler narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the other party with a vicious glint.
That expression seemed to be telling everyone that he would completely rip Jack to shreds.
Jack remained completely calm even when faced with an expression like that. It was as if the person standing at the
starting point was not his opponent, but an ant that he could kill at any moment. He did not feel threatened by the
opponent at all.
Jack's expression was too calm, and that angered Adler.
Adler scoffed, "Brat, try to keep up with that act of yours! Did you think that all of us have joined the challenge, and
no one's around to teach you that lesson?! Is that why you were acting so arrogantly? However, you've
miscalculated. I just entered this place a little bit earlier than you did, and Ihaven't had the chance to join the
challenge!"
The other participants below started to look at Jack with sympathetic looks on their faces. Jack was done for.
Someone even shouted out, "Hey, you there. You need to be careful. Adler is stronger than Lionel. Lionel's nothing
special amongst warriors that are above average, but Adler ranks in the top ten among those warriors. Lionel
wouldn't be able to take three blows from him!"
Jack raised an eyebrow. So, this guy was called Adler. Adler was slightly stronger than Jack expected if he was
ranked in the top ten. It seemed like Adler did not dare to act like he was better than Blant and had always stood
behind him.
It was obvious that Blant was stronger than Adler and was probably in the top five. No wonder everyone was so
afraid of Blant.
With skills like that, Blant definitely had the right to act arrogantly in front of everything else.
Adler had thought that Jack would show some fear on his face after hearing how strong he was. Even if Jack was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmforcing himself to act calm, there should have been some fluctuations in Jack's demeanor when he revealed his
skills.
Yet, he was surprised to see that Jack's expression did not change the whole time. Even after hearing that he
ranked in the top ten among above average warriors, Jack still seemed indifferent.
The more Adler looked at it, the angrier he got. He wanted nothing more than to rip that man to shreds.
Blant was clearly not happy with Jack's calm demeanor as well. It was as if their skills were nothing in front of that
man. Even though that guy would be taught a lesson very soon, Blant was still too impatient.
He scoffed as he said coldly, "You're still trying to put on an act? Even if you act like you're so calm, it won't change
your fate. You'll end up even worse than Lionel. That's the consequence of challenging us!"
Jack turned around and looked at Blant calmly before he looked at Adler again.
He sighed, "What a pity. If only you hadn't attempted the challenge and were the one standing here instead. That
would've been so much better."
