A Man Like None Other Chapter 2837

“Roderick, the truth has been laid out right before your eyes. You’ve already lost. What else do you have to say?” the elderly judge questioned Roderick coldly.

“How is this possible? Why is this happening?” Roderick paced in circles as if he had lost his mind. “I now declare that the champion of this Alchemist Fair is Jared!” the elderly judge announced loudly.

With the result being made official, the audience erupted into applause. “We have a rising star in the world of alchemists!” “Divine Cauldron! This is the first time I’ve seen a specialized cauldron.”

“Even with the aid of the Divine Cauldron, I reckon there aren’t many people who can refine a Seventh Level pill within a few minutes.” Everyone was now showering Jared with praises, no longer directing a word of ridicule or doubt at him.

“Roderick, the outcome has been decided, Isn’t it time for you to fulfill your promises?” Jared asked Roderick. Roderick regarded Jared with a frosty gaze, his eyes filled with defiance. Nevertheless, he had undeniably lost.

“Jared, I jested earlier, so my words don’t count. Besides, there’s nothing stating that wagering is allowed during the Alchemist Fair’s competition.” There was no way Roderick would kneel before Jared, much less give away his spiritual cauldron.

“You played me for a fool?” Jared narrowed his eyes.

“So what if I did? We’re in Jipsdale. Do you dare to lay a hand on me here?” Roderick dared behave haughtily as the rules in Jipsdale forbade anyone from private dueling. Taking in Roderick’s arrogant demeanor, Jared clenched his fists tightly.

“The rules of Jipsdale don’t allow anyone to start a fight except in an arena. This is a platform to host an alchemy contest, so it’s also considered an arena,” the elderly judge piped up.

The elderly judge’s implication could not be more obvious. He was pointing out to Jared that since they were in the arena, Jared could disregard Jipsdale’s rules.

Needless to say, Jared understood the elderly judge’s words. As soon as the elderly judge finished his sentence, Jared had already thrown a punch.

“How dare you trick me? I’ll make you pay!” Jared’s punch landed on Roderick’s abdomen, causing him to fall to the ground. Considering Roderick’s strength, he was undoubtedly no match for Jared. Jared could effortlessly beat up Roderick.

He stepped forward, grasped Roderick’s collar, and slapped the latter several times. Roderick was utterly defenseless, and in no time, his face became bruised and swollen.

At the sight of Roderick getting beaten to a pulp, Pearl felt her heart ache and rushed forward, bellowing at Jared, “Jared, stop!”

“Get back here, Pearl!” Gregory immediately chided furiously when he saw Pearl was still trying to protect Roderick. However, Pearl turned a deaf ear to Gregory’s order and shielded Roderick.

Jared wasn’t going to indulge Pearl, so he casually shoved her aside with a wave of his hand. Then, he lifted Roderick and continued hitting him..

“I was wrong. Please stop beating me!”

Roderick started begging for mercy. “Kneel and apologize!” Jared commanded coldly. Roderick fell to his knees with a thud and apologized sincerely to Jared.

“What about your spiritual cauldron?” Jared demanded. “I’ll gift it to you. You can have it. I don’t want it anymore!” Gregory was traumatized by Jared’s ruthlessness. Looking at Roderick’s cowardly demeanor, Jared waved his hand and said, “Get lost!”

Hearing that, Roderick swiftly got up to leave, but Pearl quickly stopped him. “Roderick, didn’t you say you’d take me with you? Let’s go together.”

Pearl knew only tough times awaited her if she remained there. After all, Gregory had already begun to doubt her.

“F*ck off! Who would leave with you? I lied to you. You should take a good look in the mirror. The sight of you disgusts me!” Roderick cursed maliciously before pushing Pearl to the ground.
