Chapter 453
When Olivia arrived, everyone still dared to discuss her softly. Now that the Saintess deep gaze was on them, everyone maintained their silence. Nobody dared to say a word. They tried their best to show their best side.
The First Elder’s gaze changed. Despite being a seasoned person who knew how. to hide his emotions, he was still shocked by the sudden change in their attitudes. It was too unexpected.
The other three elders‘ expressions became solemn as they looked at the faces below.
The Saintess’s appearance had caused a sensation.
She had cleverly used a mask to cover her unsightly face. Her presence was amplified with it. As soon as she appeared, she intimidated those present.
It was a smart move.
It had only been slightly over a month since Berry had been chosen as the Saintess. Besides the previous auction, she had never shown her face in front of anyone elsewhere. It led to many speculations, fantasies, and expectations. The Saintess’s appearance had appealed to others fantasies of her.
A flash of decisiveness flashed across the First Elder’s eyes. He had a ruthless. thought. He would not let the Saintess win others‘ hearts.
“Everyone!” The First Elder stepped forward and said, “The Saintess came by here.
today to motivate us. She hopes that we can achieve good $1
Competition.”
in the Star
After hearing what the First Elder said, the people below were very touched, especially the young people participating in the Star Competition. All of them were so excited that their faces turned red.
The First Elder looked at their reactions. His eyes turned dark as he continued, “In addition, the Saintess has another matter to announce.”
Everyone was taken by surprise.
What could the announcement be?
Everyone could not help but feel curious. Eric, who was standing beside Edwin, poked the latter. Eric asked in a surprised tone, “Edwin, do you know what it is?” Edwin frowned. “I don’t know.”
Eric curled his lips. “Stop pretending. The First Elder is your grandfather. How could you not know?
Edwin ignored Eric. He focused his gaze on the First Elder.
words had aroused the curiosity of the people below the First d dignity and said. The Saintess will lead the Star Competition today
She will lead the contestants to participate in the Star Competition and obtain good results.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.
Everyone thought it was a joke. The Saintess had not learned any voodoo before. There was no way for her to be the leader. It was a crazy idea.
Although the Star Competition was not a life–and–death competition, there was still some danger. After all, they were dealing with poisonous insects and snakes. If they were not careful, they would be injured and poisoned.
A good leader would arrange for the team members to compete reasonably to minimize the casualties of the team members.
Everyone was doubtful that the Saintess was capable of doing that.
The young people participating in the Star Competition were not just the descendants of the four elders. Most of them were ordinary people. All of them had their own families. Their families treasured them. They were not here to keep the Saintess entertained.
There were signs of resistance as the participants were unsure of their safety. They would not allow the Saintess to be the leader.
Seeing everyone’s reaction, the First Elder was satisfied. There was a faint smile on his lips.
Eric had been in the mood to joke with Edwin earlier. When he heard that the Saintess was the leader, his eyes widened in shock. “Edwin, aren’t you the leader? What’s wrong with the Saintess? She’s only been the Saintess for a month. She doesn’t even know anything about poison, let alone voodoo worms.”
It must be a joke. One that could endanger others‘ lives.
Edwin was also a little surprised. He did not understand why his grandfather had changed his mind.
At that moment, someone beside him said, “I heard that the Saintess is domineering. She could easily turn the kitchen upside down with a meal request. She probably requested to be the leader herself.”
“This is too much!” The contestants who were participating in the Star Competition were upset. All of them were complaining.
Olivia remained in her seat. She quietly watched the reactions of the people
