Chapter 681 Personal Grudges
Gerald was upset, but he still coughed and said, “Hello!”
Karla smiled.
The group of people rushed to the Roberson’s home. There were not many people left in the Roberson clan now. According to Frederic, there were only more than 100 people!
Among the Four Ancient Clans, most of them did not have a lot of family members. The Berkeley clan only had a few dozen people. The other two clans only had more than a hundred people. With such a scale, they could not even be a large clan in the city!
Gerald could feel that these people in the depths of the mountains were eager to go to the big cities on the outside, especially the people of the younger generation.
The Berkeley clan came to ask Gerald about the things in the city every day.
When Gerald mentioned computer games and bars, their faces would be full of yearning, as if they were eager to go out and feel the city life immediately!
Karla was one of the younger generations. She had a good relationship with Isla. Isla must have described fife in the city to Karla, so Karla yearned for it very much.
The group of people slowly headed toward the village in front of them.
At the entrance, there were people welcoming them. Soon, the group was taken into a huge hall. The
Mcdowell clan was looking around excitedly.
Few people would come to such a remote village.
In the hall, some old people were sitting there.
Gerald saw some familiar people, such as Pryor and Sumner from the Nelson clan.
Five days had passed. Sumner still had his hand bandaged up. It was clear that his injuries had not completely recovered. And in the front seat of the Nelson clan, an old man with a stoop and a face full of
wrinkles sat there.
He sat at the front while looking down as if he would fall to the ground at any time!
However, Gerald’s heart skipped a beat. He felt a sense of danger from this old man.
When the old man saw them, he looked up at Gerald. Gerald exchanged a glance with him. He saw a trace of killing intent flashing in the depths of the old man’s eyes.
Gerald slowly let out a breath!
In front of Geraid, a dignified middle-aged man smiled, “Everyone is here, right? Please take your seat!”
Someone showed the seats for Gerald and the others. Frederic and members of the Berkeley clan walked in another direction. The Four Ancient Clans and Watchmen sat in five positions respectively. Gerald and the others took their seats.
The person in the middle smiled at Gerald and said, “Let me introduce myself. My name is Eaton Roberson.”
Gerald smiled and nodded. “Gerald Kenneth!”
“Since everyone is here, we’ll skip some complicated things. The Four Ancient Clans have agreed to this assessment. So, let’s start directly. If one passes the assessment, he will have the qualifications to enter the Burial Ground. If one fails, then he should go back,” the old man said indifferently.
Eaton was stunned. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “Alright, Earl!”
Then, Eaton let out a breath and looked at Gerald. He said, “The so-called assessment is about each family sending out a Half-Step Flame Decay level expert. If you can hold on for 10 minutes, you will pass the assessment. If you cannot, you will fail.”
As Eaton spoke, he smiled at Gerald, and asked, “Is there any problem?”
“No!” Gerald shook his head.
There were just four Half-Step Flame Decay level experts, Gerald could even defeat them, let alone hold on for ten minutes.
Half-Step Flame Decay level experts were as strong as Gold Elite Ghost. Other than those who were experienced, like Robert, Gerald felt that he could take them down.
“Since you’ve decided, please call your experts over. I’ll be on behalf of my family!” Eaton smiled.
Obviously, among the Four Ancient Clans, there should be people of the same level as Robert. However, the Roberson clan didn’t show up. Now, Eaton was in charge of his family.
Keenan smiled and said, “I’ll represent the Berkeley clan!”
The middle-aged woman also stood up with a smile and said, “I will represent the Mcdowell clan!”
