At that moment, Thiago emerged, accompanied by Adan.
Upon hearing Jared’s words, Thiago responded with an expression of disdain, “You’ve got quite the nerve, I must say. If you’re so confident, I’ll allow you to challenge me. If you manage to defeat me, I’ll let you become an inner court disciple.”
He simply couldn’t believe that Jared, a mere Fourth Level Tribulator, could ever defeat him.
He could defeat Jared with just one hand.
Thiago’s words had drawn a crowd. Seeing that Jared was challenging Thiago to join the ranks of the inner court disciples, everyone was taken aback.
Jared was merely a Fourth Level Tribulator, while Thiago was an Eighth Level Tribulator.
The difference was just too vast.
“Axel, don’t listen to him. We’ll figure things out. Once Master comes out from the council meeting room, we’ll discuss it with him. If you challenge Thiago, you’re definitely going to lose. That guy doesn’t know how to hold back. Besides, you don’t have to challenge Thiago. You can easily choose anyone from the deacons. That is your right,” Judd hastily said.
He was worried that Jared didn’t understand the rules and would fall for Thiago’s tricks.
“Judd, that doesn’t matter. He has no other choice but to challenge me. If he chooses someone else, I won’t allow it. Don’t forget, I’m the chief examiner,” Thiago said with a somber look in his eyes.
After what had happened with the assessment, Thiago was feeling quite upset. Now, he could take his frustration out on Jared.
Upon seeing the situation, Carla glared at Thiago. “You’re so despicable…”
“Despicable?”
Thiago chuckled. “These are the rules of our sect. Are you implying that those who established these rules are all despicable?”
“Hahaha, if you wish to become an inner court disciple, you’ll need to get through Thiago first. Otherwise, none of you should even dream of becoming an inner court disciple.” Adan laughed heartily in triumph.
“Kid, you seem to have impressive credentials. If you choose to join our faction now, I can easily make you an inner court disciple,” Thiago said to Jared.
“Are you worthy?” Jared let out a cold laugh.
Thiago’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Kid, there are times when you can’t be stubborn. If you want to become an inner court disciple, then you have to defeat me!”
At that point, Judd was absolutely livid.
Both were deacons, but he had no power at all now, as Harlan had become the new sect leader. He was worried that Jared would end up getting hurt if he were to challenge Thiago.
There was a chance he could be crippled.
“Beating you is way easier than taking a dump!”
Jared looked at Thiago with a face full of disdain.
All eyes suddenly turned to him. They were all astonished. A Fourth Level Tribulator is claiming that defeating an Eighth Level Tribulator is as easy as taking a dump?
What a braggart!
“Axel, stop talking and shut your mouth!”
Judd furrowed his brows, fearing that Jared’s provocation of Thiago would lead to an uncontrollable situation in the end!
Carla and the others also advised Jared to stop speaking.
“Judd, everything I’ve spoken is the truth. Why can’t I say it? With his level of ability, I can crush him with one hand!” Jared responded with a sneer.
Since he could no longer conceal his abilities, he decided to show off his impressive skills.
What Jared said was indeed the truth. Given Thiago’s capabilities, he could certainly defeat him with one hand.
Thiago was seething, his face flushed with anger. “Kid, you’re too arrogant. Even if I cripple you during the challenge, it’s all on you. There won’t be any repercussions.”
“Would there be any repercussions if I crippled you, then?” Jared asked.
Judd was momentarily at a loss for words.
There’s a limit to showing off, and he has certainly crossed that line!
All the other disciples were looking at Jared, their eyes filled with mockery.
