Since it was to repay Jared for saving her life, Claus no longer had a reason to question Hailey's decision to gift that Life-saving Runestone to Jared.
He could only watch Hailey chat enthusiastically with Jared. Taking in her delighted mien, Claus felt extremely jealous.
He merely wished the Secret Realm Conference would begin as soon as possible to put an end to Jared and Hailey's conversation.
“Everyone, please quiet down.” At that moment, Quindon, sitting on the platform, got to his feet and spoke loudly.
Instantaneously, everyone stopped talking and shifted their attention to the platform.
After everyone quieted down, Quindon continued, “As the Secret Realm Conference restarts, I hope everyone will maintain a learning attitude and avoid harming others intentionally. Remember, friendship is more important than the outcome of the competition. Now, please welcome Sigwin Green from the Supreme Honor Rankings to strike the Dragon Bell to officiate our conference! However, there's a slight amendment to the rules this year. Anyone can challenge themselves and strike the Dragon Bell, but whether the bell will ring depends on each individual's skills. I would suggest all of you to exercise caution. Don't end up failing to ring the Dragon Bell, only to suffer a backlash and serious injuries from the attempt. That would be a loss.”
After saying that, Quindon turned to Sigwin. “Mr. Green, please go ahead.”
Sigwin nodded. Then, he gently kicked off the ground, instantly launching himself toward the bell tower. He pushed the bronze door open and entered.
The moment the door was opened, a terrifying aura burst forth.
The bell tower was only around fifty meters tall, but it took half an hour for Sigwin to reappear at the top of the edifice after going in.
“Outstanding!” Many people cheered and applauded when Sigwin reappeared on the top of the bell tower.
