Chapter 2168

Raymond had known Severin longer than most because he had befriended Severin since the latter’s entry into the sect. When they went into the Artic Heights, Raymond had failed to obtain the most precious of Wildfire’s relics, but each interaction that had allowed him to comprehend the sheer incomprehensibility of Severin’s true strength. Uzair’s death had deeply shaken Raymond and instilled a sense of fear.

Severin seemed to be a person favored by the heavens, as there never seemed to be an end to Severin’s progress. With Severin and Riley competing in the same arena, Raymond found himself slightly eager to see Severin’s failure. “Even the strongest will be defeated. Today might be that day for you, Severin…”

Not far away, Karl opened his eyes after a bout of meditation. He glanced at Severin and Riley on stage before closing his eyes once again. That intense battle might have captivated the attention of many, but Karl viewed it like a mere insignificant tussle between two ants.

At the same time, the peak masters stood high in the sky and observed the battle with Oskar. The expressions on their faces were varied, with the first to the fifth having rather indifferent expressions.

Myles of the Seventh Mountain felt a little nervous and was frowning a little. He had not expected Severin to face such a formidable opponent right at the outset. Daniella was similarly concerned. Riley was a paragon, and thus had formidable strength.

They had previously supported Severin and provided him with numerous resources, all of which would end up in vain if Severin was eliminated at Riley’s hands.

Lejeune noticed their expressions and chuckled, “Who would’ve thought that such a huge clash between two prodigies would happen so soon? Would Severin be the winner? Or would Riley?

How about we make a wager on who will come out victorious?”

The first five peak masters were Karl’s supporters, so they were evidently pleased with the impending elimination of either one of them. At Lejeune’s suggestion, Holvieg Standt – the fourth peak master-said, “I’ll place my bets on Riley then!” He then took out an eighth-grade pill and presented it to everyone as his wager.

Melorin Jamell of the Third Mountain smiled and offered up a piece of gold. “My bets are on Riley as well!”

“Count me in too!” The bets were soon casted, and the first five peak masters placed their bets on Riley’s victory.

Myles’s face soured, as he was well aware of the intentions behind their actions. He then declared in a cold tone, “I’ll bet on Severin’s victory!”

Daniella, Rowan, and Lyka reluctantly followed suit despite being well aware of the humiliation that they were facing at that moment. What Lejeune did was a clear expression of disdain for their earlier decision to support Severin over Karl.
