No.1 Supreme Warrior by Moneto

Chapter 2161

Everyone was stunned by Jackie’s martial art technique. No matter how they used their divine senses to probe, they

could not feel any energy fluctuations from the martial arts technique conjured up by Jackie.

After all, the more powerful martial arts technique, the greater the fluctuation of energy, but the grayblack daggers

in Jackie’s hand were like black holes with no energy fluctuations.

At this time, the ten light blades were already within ten yards of Jackie. Emotionlessly, he pushed his hands

forward, and the ten Soul Swords instantly collided with the ten light blades.

All everyone heard was a burst of bang, bang, bang, like cannonballs crashing against each other. An eye-piercing

light briefly shrouded the two of them, and the next second Jackie already had his palms together.

After the light subsided, a three-foot-long giant Soul Sword shot out in the air toward Oliver. The others might not

know it, but he knew that his ten light blades all instantly exploded into a light ball, and were extinguished after

coming in contact with the gray-black energy.

What surprised him, even more, was that the ten Soul Swords remained unscathed. The ten Soul Swords converged

into a giant Soul Sword after Jackie put his palms together, and in a blink of an eye, appeared in front of Oliver.

“Shit!’ thought Oliver. It would be the end of him if he was slashed by the giant Soul Sword. He desperately backed

away. Fortunately, his Light Blade Lore not only increased his attack speed but also his own speed.

Unfortunately, his opponent was Jackie, who had no intention of letting him escape so easily. Jackie snorted,

narrowed his eyes, and once again used the laws of space.

The giant Soul Sword, which was originally five yards away from Oliver, broke through the shackles of space and

appeared instantly in front of him after Jackie used the law of space.

All the spectators’ eyes widened, and jaws dropped when they saw that. Jackie gritted his teeth; he knew that things

would not end well for him if he killed Oliver. Originally, the giant Soul Sword was aimed at Oliver’s throat, but with

a flick of his wrist, it changed its target to Oliver’s right shoulder. Immediately the sound of metal scraping against

bones could be heard.

“Ahh!” Oliver’s scream broke through the clouds, making everyone gasp. He quickly staggered back, but lost his

balance mid-way, and fell from the air to the ground with a heavy thud.

Tears began to flow out of the corner of Oliver’s eyes. He had always prided himself on having never cried from

pain, but this time there was no forcing back his tears. He had never felt pain like this; it was as if his soul had been

torn apart! His entire body was convulsing. He could not even breathe properly, let alone stand up.

Seeing this stunned everyone into silence, and for a long time, the only sound that could be heard was the screams

of Oliver.

“Is this really happening? Did my eyes deceive me? Did Jackie just neutralize Oliver’s strongest attack with one

move? What are those gray-black swords? How is it so powerful?”

“Brother Oliver actually lost! And to a newly recruited informal disciple at that! This kid…” The person could not

continue on anymore.

Chapter 2162

The winner of the battle was obvious, but this result was unacceptable to everyone present. No one thought that

Oliver would be defeated by Jackie. From the very beginning, everyone thought Oliver would be able to take down

Jackie in one move or three at the most.

However, it turned out to be a long drawn-out battle. Oliver was still no match for Jackie even after casting his

strongest attack. He had lost completely and was seriously injured.

He was still screaming and crying on the ground. It did not take much to imagine just how much pain he was in, for

which martial artists would be willing to shed tears in front of others? One’s pride would never allow them to do

such a thing.

“Jackie is just too strong! Can someone please enlighten me how he got this strong?” said someone in shock.

“I would like to know too! He would have no problem being ranked in the top five amongst the formal disciples!”

“No wonder he was so cocky before! Brother Oliver never stood a chance at all!”

Everyone’s evaluation of Jackie completely changed. Now it seemed like they were the clowns, not him!

Even till now, Jackie ignored them.

Wesley felt his legs turn into jelly and collapse to the ground. He stared helplessly at his big brother who was still

rolling around in pain on the battle platform.

Out of everyone there, Wesley was the one who was most worked up. How could he remain calm when his own big

brother was defeated by Jackie, who he had a grudge on since the day they knew each other’s existence.

His back was ramrod straight, but his expression was lost. Suddenly, he shook his head vigorously, as if wanting to

wake himself up from this nightmare. “No, this is impossible! Absolutely impossible! How can Oliver lose to Jackie? I

must be hallucinating! Yes, this must be a hallucination!”

His expression was frightening to look at. His face was ashen and pale at the same time as if he had just recovered

from a serious illness. The man with the triangular eyes standing next to him was stunned speechless. He, too,

nursed a grudge against Jackie. He thought by allying himself with Wesley, one day he would surely see Jackie meet

a tragic end, but again and again, it was Jackie’s opponent who had tragic endings.

The man with the triangular eyes took a deep breath. At this time, he was not in the mood to comfort Wesley. His

mouth twitched and said, “How is he so powerful? He wasn’t this powerful before!”

The rest of the informal disciples were shocked and did not know what to say as well. However, they were not as

shocked as the formal disciples because they had prior knowledge of Jackie’s talent.

Still, it was a long time before they could compose themselves. It was impossible for Jackie to be this much stronger

than he was previously. Could it be that he has been concealing his power all this time?

Chapter 2163

A month ago, it took Jackie all that he had to defeat Wesley, but now, he effortlessly defeated Oliver. Although

Wesley and Oliver were brothers, there was a world of difference between their powers. After all, Oliver joined the

Dual Sovereign Pavilion a few years earlier than Wesley.

Then there was also the fact that Oliver was ranked eighth amongst the formal disciples while Wesley was not even

in the top fifty of the informal disciples. It would take years before Wesley could even catch up to his big brother.

That was why it was so shocking that Jackie was able to bridge the great gulf of power within a month!

“Jackie definitely hid his real power from us! There’s no way that he could have leveled up so much within a

month!” said an informal disciple firmly.

“It must be so! After all, the gap in power between Oliver and Wesley is really too big. It’s like comparing apples and

oranges. It was only a month ago that Jackie barely defeated Wesley, and now he defeated Oliver without even

sweating much! This is not something that can be done within a month!” said the person next to him.

“In any case, Jackie is too strong! He’s so strong that I don’t even dare to dream about catching up to him! And he’s

only at the intermediate stage of innate level whereas Oliver’s at the final stage of innate level!”

This sentence reminded them that Jackie had actually defeated someone who was one level higher than him.

Gradually, they began to realize that there was definitely something extraordinary going on.

Not only were all the disciples shocked, but the elders on the round platform were also in disbelief. They could not

believe what they had just witnessed.

The First Elder’s lips were trembling, and he glanced at the Second Elder. He immediately felt a little better when he

saw that the usually impassive Second Elder was also trembling with shock.

The Second Elder exhaled deeply, turned to face Elder Godfrey, and scoffed. “I now know why you’re so insistent on

having Jackie as your last disciple. His talent and strength indeed qualify him to be your last disciple. However, I do

wonder why you never bother to tell us all in the first place.”

On the surface, the Second Elder’s words sounded like praises, but he was actually blaming Elder Godfrey for

making a joke out of them.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

Elder Godfrey arched his brow, the only change in his face. He was a little irked by the Second Elder’s words and

wanted to brag a little to blow off some steam, but this was the first time he saw Jackie in battle too.

He was not much different from others; he went slack -jawed the moment he saw Jackie neutralize Oliver’s Light

Blade Lore, and wound him with a single move. Although he knew Jackie was extraordinary, he did not expect him

to be THIS extraordinary.

Elder Godfrey sighed. He knew that he could not let the others in on just how shocked he was. “Didn’t I tell you

before that my last disciple has to be excellent in all aspects? Why would I choose Jackie if he did not meet the

criteria?”

Chapter 2164 The First and Second Elder’s faces turned dark after they heard this. The Second Elder was so angry

that the corners of his mouth twitched continuously as he narrowed his eyes. The First Elder did not hide his anger

and glared at Elder Godfrey maliciously. He looked like he was about to rush forth and give Elder Godfrey a scolding.

Elder Sayer, who sat behind the whole time, also looked terrible. He had a twisted expression on his face as he

tightened his fists. Jackie was the Sayer family’s enemy. The stronger Jackie was, the more unfavorable the

situation was for him.

At this moment, Oliver once again yelled out in pain. This time, his cries were much more intense as the pain

seemed to have invaded his spine. “Ah! It hurts! Help me!”

Elder Sayer snapped out of his daze when he heard the cries. He immediately stood up from his seat and rushed

toward the battle platform. He performed seals after seals with his hands and the seals rushed onto the guardian

array like a meteor shower before merging with the guardian array.

Everybody only heard the clicking sound of the mechanism being activated and the guardian array was instantly

removed. Elder Sayer’s feet had landed on the battle platform and he hurried toward Oliver. He stretched out his

hand to help Oliver up before taking several pills from his storage space and feeding them to Oliver. He then

checked Oliver’s pulse and his face instantly darkened after he checked Oliver’s wounds.

He instantly looked up and glared at Jackie hatefully. “You b*stard, how dare you do such a terrible thing. How can

you do something like this by tearing up his soul?!” Elder Sayer was furious. The wounds on his body were fine but

the wound that his soul suffered were much more difficult to recover compared to the wounds on his body. Apart

from that, those wounds required the help of exceptionally expensive pills. From the looks of things, Oliver’s wound

would require at least six months to recover.

Six months might be nothing to the elders but it was extremely precious to the disciples that were in their growth

period. How could Elder Sayer not get angry when this could affect Oliver’s future.

There were no changes on Jackie’s face when he heard this. It did not matter to Jackie even if Elder Sayer died on

the spot due to anger. He chuckled lightly and said calmly, “I don’t understand what Elder Sayer means by this. In a

battle between two people, I will definitely do my best unless I really understand Senior Brother Oliver’s true

strength! There’s always a possibility of getting wounded during a battle and it’s even more difficult to control one’s

strength when the person is trying their best. Everybody saw that if I didn’t hold back when the two of us were

performing our last attack, Senior Brother Oliver won’t be able to cry out in pain right now.”

Elder Sayer was so angry that his face blushed a crimson color. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Jackie as

he spoke, “What a young man with a glib tongue. Since you can control your last attack, can’t you just directly

disperse the attack! In that way, Oliver won’t get hurt.”

Jackie laughed out loud when he heard what Elder Sayer said. However, his laughter sounded cold as he glared

coldly at Elder Sayer who was standing in front of him. How dare he say such a thing? Was he asking Jackie to

disperse his attack so that Oliver could bounce back and they would end up in another life or death battle?

Jackie glared at Elder Sayer coldly. “Didn’t you see how Oliver attacked me? He was trying to kill me. Why can’t I

attack him when he’s allowed to do that to me? I know that Oliver is a member of your Sayer family and you will

definitely be on his side. However, you cannot support him blindly and forbid me from attacking him while allowing

him to kill me!”

Chapter 2165 What Jackie said immediately caused his surroundings to quiet down. Jackie’s words were sharp and

devastating. However, that was exactly what Elder Sayer meant. He only allowed Oliver to attack Jackie but forbade

Jackie to do the same!

All the disciples standing there looked at Elder Sayer angrily. Elder Sayer humphed softly and understood that he

had been caught in the trap by Jackie. If he continued the conversation, it would hurt his prestige. He might even

lose his position as an elder because of this. He humphed coldly and said, “B*stard, don’t you quote what I said out

of context. That is not what I meant.”

“If so, what do you mean? Why are you questioning me so angrily for what I did? I didn’t break any rules and I

didn’t kill Oliver. I also did not cause him to be disabled for life. Since I didn’t break any rules, why are you

questioning me?”

What Jackie said successfully choked Elder Sayer and he felt like he had swallowed a huge piece of stone. The stone

was stuck at his throat and he was unable to swallow or spit it out. As an elder of the sect, he was forced by Jackie

to a point where he was speechless.

Jackie smiled coldly and said loudly, “I know what Elder Sayer means. If I’m the one who’s badly wounded and on

the ground, you will be sitting on the round platform, looking at Oliver happily. However, you’ve rushed over to

question me because Oliver is the one who’s on the ground right now. I can understand that you’re just protecting

your family. However, you should treat every disciple the same as you’re an elder. I’ve never expected for you to

be so biased!”

“You!” Elder Sayer was so angry that his eyes were almost popping out of his sockets.

“All of you, shut up! Elder Sayer, why are you wasting time speaking to him on the battle platform instead of helping

Oliver to receive his treatment?!” The First Elder’s voice traveled far and exploded loudly by everyone’s ears.

At this moment, the First Elder was so exasperated that his entire body hurt. Oliver could be considered a disciple

siding with him and Elder Sayer was an unwavering supporter of his. One of them was defeated by Jackie while the

other ignored his position and started a fight with Jackie. The most embarrassing part was how Elder Sayer was

suppressed by Jackie and was unable to win the argument. The First Elder was in an extremely embarrassing

situation.

The corners of Elder Sayer’s mouth twitched and he knew that things would not end well for him and the First Elder

might teach him a lesson if he insisted on fighting with Jackie. He exhaled deeply and forcefully suppressed his

anger. He asked others to help Oliver down the battle platform and sent him away for treatment. Jackie also walked

down from the battle platform slowly and steadily.

Everybody was looking at Jackie. They still remembered their feelings when they initially looked at Jackie walking up

the battle platform. Right now, everything had changed and the strength that Jackie demonstrated was really

shocking! Just as Jackie walked down the battle platform, he suddenly raised his head and looked toward the First

Elder, who was on the round platform.

The First Elder had no idea why but he felt uncomfortable when he saw Jackie looking at him. He saw the corners of

Jackie’s mouth curling upward and a standard smile appeared on Jackie’s face. “First Elder, please don’t forget

about the bet between us. You can directly ask somebody to send the sect contribution points over or I can

personally pick them up.”

All the audience was in an uproar once again when they heard what Jackie said. The First Elder’s face had already

turned into a crimson color and he recalled at this moment about his personal promise to Jackie that he would top

up 300 contribution points on top of Oliver’s wager of 700 contribution points if Jackie won.

Chapter 2166 The First Elder scoffed indignantly and spoke, obviously flustered, “Don’t you worry. As the First Elder,

I’ll keep my promise and send the sect contribution points to you later!”

He then flicked his sleeve and turned around to leave. He might feel that his presence had no other meaning apart

from embarrassing himself. Since the First Elder had left, the other elders did not need to stay, too.

Jackie’s room still looked the same. It was a standard single-bed room with a wardrobe, a table, a chair, and a shelf.

After he returned from the noisy gathering spot, Jackie had been tidying his belongings. In fact, he did not leave

many things in this house. Apart from his bedding, there were only several ancient books that he borrowed.

Brook and Noel had also followed Jackie to his room, they had been talking throughout their journey. Their

conversation did not stop after they entered the house and sat by the table.

The excitement on Noel’s face was overflowing. “You have no idea what those people thought of you when you

walked out from the crowd. Some were jealous, some hated you, and some admired you, surely. Anyway, you have

the respect of them all. You defeated one of the top ten formal disciples as a newly recruited informal disciple. I

don’t think there are many people in the sect with such a record!”

Brook nodded vehemently, and he was much more excited than Noel. After all, he was just a runner disciple, and it

was his great honor to be acquainted with Jackie, who would definitely become a chosen disciple in the future.

“Elder Sayer looked at you like he’d eat you. When you ask the First Elder to remember the three hundred sect

contribution points he promised, Elder Sayer glowered so badly. Not only have you defeated Oliver, but he has to

give you seven hundred contribution points obediently. This time, he has suffered a terrible loss!”

Brook could not stop smiling when he thought of this. When Jackie mentioned that he was going to have a fight with

Oliver, no one around Jackie thought of him highly. Everybody belittled Jackie terribly, wanting to trample all over

him. However, their view of him changed so quickly, faster than skimming through books, and soon changed the

direction of their conversation. They started to mock Oliver and said that he was outwardly strong but inwardly

weak.

Noel poured himself a cup of tea. “This time, no one in the sect dares question you. Those who looked down at you

dare not say anything right now. I’ve never expected you to be so strong that even Oliver can’t contend against

you. No wonder you could survive the dangerous Mount Beasts.”

Brook could not stop running his mouth when it came to matters regarding Jackie’s strength. He inhaled deeply and

said, “How can you be so strong? What martial skill are you practicing? How did you still manage to crush Oliver

when you’re challenging him from a lower level? The question of what martial skill you’re training is in everyone’s

minds right now. Some people are even guessing that you’re practicing an Earth level martial skill!”

Brook and Noel’s expression changed when they heard the words, ‘Earth level martial skill’. The two of them were

so excited that they forgot the most crucial point. However, Jackie obviously had no plans of telling them about this.

He only chuckled and packed everything. He pointed toward the outside of the door. “Elder Godfrey sent somebody

to inform me that I’ll head directly to the Mysterious Green Hall after I pack my things.”

In the Dual Sovereign Pavilion, every formal elder owned their personal hall, and the one belonging to Elder Godfrey

was known as the Mysterious Green Hall. Noel and Brook were not insensible, and they stopped asking when they

noticed Jackie not wanting to continue with the topic.

Brook mentioned that he wanted to send Jackie to the Mysterious Green Hall, and Jackie agreed to it. The three of

them left the individual house and walked towards the Mysterious Green Hall.

The Mysterious Green Hall was located at the east side of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion where disciples did not dare

venture to, apart from the elder disciples. Jackie had already become Elder Godfrey’s last disciple and was naturally

a member of the elder disciples. Hence, his living quarters had changed from the secluded room to the Mysterious

Green Hall.

Noel and Brook had never visited where the formal elders stayed. The two of them wanted to accompany Jackie

there with hopes of getting a peak. The informal disciples stayed at the west side of the entire sect, and they had to

walk across the entire sect to reach the Mysterious Green Hall.

Chapter 2167 They talked as they walked, meeting many other disciples along the way as they did.

The battle at the gathering spot made Jackie relatively well-known, and a lot of people viewed him in a different

light from then on. Most of them looked at him with admiration, but some envied Jackie immensely. Despite this,

Jackie’s expression remained stoic and unperturbed, no matter what the people’s opinions were of him.

The closer they were to the east side, the fewer the disciples they ran into. After all, the people active in the east

side were mostly the management members with high positions, or even elder disciples. Jackie and the rest did not

know their way as this was their first time here. They struggled to find their way here and had to ask for directions

from several disciples.

The only road to the Mysterious Green Hall was one turn away. They quieted down a little as they got closer as their

surroundings were utterly quiet. Apart from the sound of the wind blowing past the bamboo trees, the only thing

that could be heard were their voices. At this moment, Noel suddenly frowned as he lowered his voice and said,

“Who’s that guy up ahead? Why is he looking at us like that?”

Jackie followed his voice and looked over. A man was standing behind a clumper of bamboo, and he seemed to be

doing that on purpose so that they could not see him clearly. However, all three of them could see the hostility in his

eyes. Jackie frowned as this was the only route to the Mysterious Green Hall.

Was this a member of the Mysterious Green Hall?

Jackie continued walking, even though doubts riddled his heart. Jackie could only see the person a little better as

they approached. This person was quite good-looking, and Jackie was surprised when he saw that the person was

wearing clothes that indicated he was a chosen disciple. There was an obvious division between the sect’s disciples.

The disciples had different clothes according to their ranking of being informal disciples, elder disciples, and chosen

disciples.

This person had three begonias sewn on his waist, and he was obviously a chosen disciple as well.

All three of them raised their guards mentally upon seeing him.

Brook had the lowest position, so he decided to hide behind the two others. Only his eyes were seen peeking out

behind them as he looked at the chosen disciple in fear.

Griffin Olsen looked at Jackie coldly. “Why are you looking at me so alertly? I won’t do anything to you right now.”

What he said sounded like he wanted Jackie to be at ease, yet it was a complete power show. Jackie frowned; this

person did not come bearing good intentions. He had no idea who this person was as he had only joined the Dual

Sovereign Pavilion recently. He could not have offended a chosen disciple, either.

Jackie could only gesture politely with his hands out of his mannerism. “May I know who you are?”

Griffin raised his eyebrows. “I’m a chosen disciple, Griffin Olsen. Remember this name; you’ll be hearing it often in

the future.”

Jackie frowned at Griffin’s intonation. He was even more concerned about why Griffin was purposely blocking his

way here to meet him.

Griffin stared at Jackie coldly. He seemed to have read Jackie’s thoughts as he sneered and said, “I had to meet

you. You so effortlessly won a spot while my brother lost his.”

Jackie was puzzled when he heard this. He had no idea who Griffin was, let alone his brother. As for the spot Griffin

mentioned, could it be the spot as the last disciple? However, Jackie’s guts told him that what Griffin meant was not

the recently obtained spot as the last disciple.

Chapter 2168 Griffin’s words and him waiting for Jackie at this location had confused Jackie greatly. Although Griffin

was a chosen disciple and every disciple would automatically feel inferior to them as they were the future hope of

the entire sect, the chosen disciples did not have such treatment when it came to Jackie.

Before Jackie could understand the meaning behind Griffin’s words and tone, Griffin was already so arrogant toward

him. Jackie, unable to tolerate such behavior and not wanting to dilly nor dally, chuckled softly and said in a slightly

cold manner, “I really don’t understand what you mean, Senior Brother Griffin. I don’t know anything about this

spot you’re talking about.”

Griffin raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing In what Jackie said. Griffin scoffed indignantly and looked at

Jackie as if he had chosen the hard way to deal with things. “You really think I don’t dare do anything to you?

Although you’re already the Eleventh Elder’s last disciple, you’re just an elder disciple, but you’re nothing to us

chosen disciples. Oliver Sayer is definitely a top disciple among the formal disciples, but he’s just a newbie in my

opinion. I can easily achieve what you were able to do. Don’t think that you can show off in front of me just because

you’ve got some little achievements.”

Noel and Brook had slightly darkened expressions on their faces. Although Griffin’s questions were not aimed at

them, the look in his eyes was undeniably cold when he occasionally glanced at them. The two of them proactively

took a step back.

Jackie smiled coldly and said in a baffled manner, “I don’t know if there’s something wrong with your eyes or your

mind. When was I arrogant and showed off in front of you? This is the first time I’ve met you, and I’ve never heard

of you before today.”

Griffin was, to Jackie, a hilarious character.

Griffin’s face flushed a purple color when he heard what Jackie said. As a chosen disciple, he had never expected

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

for Jackie to have replied with such a sharp tongue. Since he became a chosen disciple, all regular disciples were

extremely respectful when they interacted with him. None of them dare act like what Jackie did as he dared mock

Griffin’s intelligence.

Griffin’s fingers slightly trembled as he spoke, ” Amazing! I’ve heard about how unruly you are, and now, I’ve finally

experienced it myself. I originally planned to forgive you if you’re sensible enough. However, it looks like… You’ll be

stepping all over us chosen disciples if I don’t teach you a lesson!”

Jackie closed his eyes, utterly bewildered. He abhorred those who, as being in a higher position, spoke to him in

such an interrogative manner. They always treated him with such a condescending attitude, and they would feel

insulted once he said something they disliked. As a result, they would go against him.

Jackie exhaled deeply, not wanting to waste a single second of his time. “What do you actually want?”

Griffin raised his eyebrows and took a step forward. His aura slowly increased as he wanted to suppress Jackie with

his aura. However, Jackie was not made out of paper. Although Griffin had completely released his momentum,

Jackie stood his ground, expression stoic as ever as though he was undaunted by Griffin.

“I think it’s best if you cease such useless actions. Just say what’s on your mind, not beating around the bush. I

don’t understand anything you said previously,” remarked Jackie coldly.

Chapter 2169

Griffin’s expression faltered and darkened, utterly embarrassed for not overpowering Jackie. However, he felt that

Jackie might say something worse if he wasted time here. He knew that this was the only road to the Mysterious

Green Hall, and if anything happened here, members of the Mysterious Green Hall would definitely support Jackie,

while he might be in trouble due to this.

Griffin suppressed his anger after deliberating the situation. “I’m not here today to question you. Instead, I hope

that you’ll be smart enough to give up he spot to visit the Secret Place for Resources. You’re just in the intermediate

stage of innate level, and you’ll be in danger if you visit that place. It’ll be better if you stay in the sect and focus on

your training. You can visit the secret places in the future when another opportunity comes along.”

While it might have looked as though he was advising Jackie, Jackie was no fool and knew Griffin would not be so

considerate toward him. It turned out that the reason Griffin came looking for him was because of the Secret Place

for Resources. However, Jackie had never heard anything about himself gaining a spot to the Secret Place for

Resources.

Elder Godfrey’s figure flashed through his head when he thought of this. It looked like the spot had something to do

with Elder Godfrey. Elder Godfrey might have even strived for this spot for him. If that was the case, he definitely

could not yield the spot to Griffin.

That man spoke so impolitely and mocked him in such an enigmatic manner. On top of that, Griffin even wanted to

suppress him with his momentum. If he honored such a person, he would really be ashamed of himself.

Jackie chuckled. “I still don’t know what this spot to enter the Secret Place for Resources is, but it doesn’t matter if I

know about it or not. Since I have a spot for that, I won’t give it up. You’re right that I’m only in the intermediate

stage of the innate level, but carrying challenges ahead of my level is nothing to me.”

Griffin’s expression darkened and he once again looked at Jackie fiercely, but Jackie ignored how Griffin looked at

him.

Jackie’s expression remained neutral as Griffin sized him up with a sharp look in his eyes. Griffin scoffed indignantly

coldly and flicked his sleeve furiously. “You truly are an utterly arrogant person. I’ve already given your respect, and

you blatantly refuse it. In that case, pinpointing you in the future!

Jackie tilted his head to one side as a sarcastic smile appeared on his face. “Don’t you find your own words funny?

What do you mean, respecting me? You were the one who came up with such pompous excuses when you’re

actually pushing me for such minor benefits. Why should I listen to you? If you wish to pinpoint me, feel free to do

so. After all, I don’t mind adding you to my enemy list!”

Jackie then took a detour from Griffin, who stood before him, and strode toward the direction of the Mysterious

Green Hall. Noel and Brook dared not look up as they ran after Jackie, heading toward the same direction.

Griffin flushed a crimson color out of anger as he tightened his fists and glared at Jackie’s figure hatefully. He looked

like his anger could only be resolved if he could pounce and bite Jackie.

He inhaled deeply and hissed through gritted teeth,” You’re too pompous, young man! Don’t think that you’re free

to do as you like just because you have the support of the Eleventh Elder. Just wait and see! I’ll make you kneel and

make you take back what you said in tears, sooner or later!”

With that, Griffin immediately turned around and walked in the opposite direction of where Jackie was headed to

while Noel and Brook followed after Jackie. The two of them had to walk in large strides to catch up with Jackie as

he was walking speedily.

Chapter 2170

Noel slowly turned around to look at Griffin carefully while walking forward, and only when he saw Griffin turning at

a corner and leaving did he call out to Jackie, “Wait for me!”

Jackie stopped walking and turned to look at Noel, who looked visibly pale and with trembling fingers. Jackie

chuckled and knew this was the first time Noel faced the chosen disciples. It was normal for him to be afraid under

the coercion of a chosen disciple’s aura.

Noel inhaled deeply. “You truly are courageous, and I genuinely admire you. I don’t think I’d be that brave to stand

up against him if I were you!”

Jackie nodded wordlessly.

Brook raised his chin and said confidently, “Senior Brother Jackie is different from you. He’s a disciple elder and has

the support of the Eleventh Elder. What does it matter if that guy is a chosen disciple? Apart from that, he’s

obviously causing trouble. Even though we have no idea what the spot to enter the Secret Place for Resources is,

it’s definitely something good as even Griffin is fighting for it. If so, it’s only natural that we can’t simply yield this to

others!

Noel glanced at Brook speechlessly. “You don’t have to remind us of this. I know that Jackie is different from how he

used to be, but chosen disciples are still chosen disciples. You won’t have a nice life if he plans to pick on you. I’m

just thinking that we should reduce the number of enemies we have in the future.”

Jackie nodded as he understood that Noel was considerate toward him, but he did not agree to what Noel said. He

turned around and looked at Noel with a serious expression on his face.

Jackie’s clothes fluttered as the breeze blew at his clothes. However, Jackie stood straight as if the strong wind

could not bend his spine. “I understand what you mean, but you have to think about it carefully. Even if I yield this

time, he’ll still force me again if something similar occurs again in the future. Should I yield to him every single

time? If so, why should I become a martial artist? I won’t be able to improve if I lose so many great chances.”

He paused here and exhaled softly before he continued, “I’ve always been somebody with my own principles. I

won’t offend anybody if they did nothing to me, but I’ll double the reprisal if they dare offend me. If they’ve already

come picking on me, I’d rather die than be a coward and yield my opportunity.”

Noel’s expression darkened upon hearing this. He mocked himself by chuckling softly and stretched out his hand to

tap Jackie on the shoulder. “You’re right. If a martial artist wishes to go against nature, they have to be equipped

with the mentality you have to achieve the peak of martial arts. However, I’m different from you, being the

extremely careful person I am. I’m not as talented as you, so I don’t have the confidence and strength.”

Jackie did not say anything and only looked at Noel in silence.

Noel chuckled and pointed at the Mysterious Green Hall in front of them as he changed the topic of the

conversation. “Let’s go inside so that we both can learn something new!”

The Mysterious Green Hall was a huge palace, and if it was reduced in size, it could be seen as a house with one

main entrance. There were two side halls beside the main hall, and there was a small garden with green plants

planted in front of the main hall. There was a gazebo in the middle of the garden. As trees covered most of the

gazebo, Jackie could only see the outline of the gazebo.

The runner disciples invited all three of them to the side hall the moment they entered the hall.

The runner disciple did not make any self-introduction. He only introduced all the facilities in the side hall and

Jackie’s future accommodation to them.
