Chapter 968
“Haylan, who the hell are you? Alice stared at Haylan and her expression changed.
She couldn’t believe that she, who had always been God’s favored one, had lost to a mortal like Haylan
Most importantly, Haylan’s spiritual strength was still so terrifyingly powerful. All of this was way too unbelievable and beyond her tolerance.
When she stood in front of Haylan, she felt as if she was facing the monstrous geniuses of God’s Land.
Taylan was as terrifying as those monsters.
Moreover, she was defeated in the Heavenly War. She was panting heavily, her face was pale, and her brain was aching. However, Haylan’s face did not even turn red and he did not pant at all. Even his expression did not change.
This meant that Haylan’s cultivation level was far above hers!
“Don’t you know me? My name is Haylan,” Haylan said calmly.
“Don’t play dumb!”
Alice gritted her teeth and said word by word, “In the mortal world, no one is stronger than me, but you just defeated me. “This means one thing. The master who taught you these skills must be extraordinary 100.
“Tell me, is your master also from God’s Land?”
Haylan was shocked when he heard this.
The last time he talked to his master about God’s Land, his master did not say much about it. Clearly, his master also knew about God’s Land but did not tell him.
Could it really be as Alice said, that his master was also from God’s Land?
He carefully recalled many things about his master in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his master’s strength was way too unbelievable and that many of his actions were incompatible with this world.
It felt like his master was from another world.
At first, Haylan did not have any doubts.
However, Alice’s words woke him up.
At this moment, Haylan was completely overwhelmed and couldn’t calm down for a long time.
However, his expression did not change and he said in a deep voice, “I don’t even know what you’re talking about.”
“As far as I know, there is no cultivation technique in the mortal world that can cultivate spiritual strength and there is no cultivation technique that can help you break through to your level.”
Alice stared at Haylan and said word by word, “You must have learned the inheritance from God’s Land to be able to possess such a magical ability!
“Furthermore, your inheritance is top–notch even in God’s Land. Who exactly is your master?”
At this point, she was even more certain that Haylan had learned the cultivation technique of God’s Land.
The dreadful power that Haylan had shown just now was somewhat similar to those monstrous geniuses in God’s Land.
In other words, Haylan was very likely to be the disciple of an old monster in God’s Land!
Only this identity could explain why Haylan did not care about whether he could learn the cultivation techniques that could help him break through to God Realm.
Haylan glanced at her and did not say anything else. Instead, he turned around and chose raw stones one by one.
In the end, he placed one of the raw stones in front of him and marked it.
After choosing his raw stone, he looked back at Alice and said, “Come and choose your raw stone quickly. It’s almost time.”
He had just fought with Alice for a long time and knew her strength very well.
It was not difficult to kill Alice, but Lindsey was still watching from the crowd.
If Haylan displayed his strength too much, it would attract too much attention and might get him unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, Haylan planned to spare Alice’s life and did not kill her because of this.
Sometimes, the living were more useful than the dead.
Only then did Alice come back to her senses. She hurriedly rushed over and carefully chose from the remaining nine raw

stones.
However, after she finished choosing, she glared at Haylan.
Just now, she was so focused on digging out Haylan’s secret that she forgot that she was in a competition and she let Haylan snatch away a piece of raw stone.
With Haylan’s ability, he must have snatched the top–grade raw stone.
After Steve saw the two of them stop fighting, he said to the host, who was still in a daze, “Don’t just stand there. They’ve stopped fighting. There won’t be any danger. It’s your turn now.”
Only then did the host come back to his senses and hurriedly walked onto the stage. He picked up the microphone and said, “Alright, the finals are over.
“In that case, all the polishers and the treasure appraisers, please come on stage to cut and appraise.”
As he spoke, two polishers pushed the cutting machine onto the stage and started cutting the raw stones Haylan and Alice had chosen.
Five minutes later, the two raw stones were cut.
They cut out a perfect gem that was only as thick as two thumbs out of Haylan’s raw stone.
Its entire body was snow–white without any impurities. It was emitting a faint white light, making it look hazy and beautiful.
The most eye–catching thing about it was that its entire body exuded a cold aura. After it was cut out, the temperature at the scene, immediately plummeted.
Even from afar, one could feel an ice–cold breeze radiating from this gem and it made one’s skin crawl.
“This is…”
When the treasure appraisers saw this piece of gem, their expressions changed.
Not only did they shocked, even Alice’s expression changed drastically. She stared at the gem and exclaimed, “This is a top–grade gem!”
Others might not know what this was, but she came from God’s Land and was especially familiar with this kind of top–grade spirit stone. She could even sense the majestic and pure spiritual energy contained in this gem.
It was definitely a top–grade spirit stone!
She could tell that this emerald pendant’s cold aura was extremely helpful to some cultivators.
If cultivators, who cultivated ice and water, absorbed the spiritual energy of the spirit stone, their cultivation level would definitely increase and even increase by a realm.
Alice looked at the top–grade gem and a hint of greed flashed across her eyes.
Then, she looked at the raw stone that she had cut out and secretly sighed.
Compared to Haylan’s top–grade gem, the gem she chose was of lower quality. The two were not on the same level at all.
When the treasure appraisers were about to come over to take a look, Alice directly said, “There’s no need to appraise. I’ve
lost.”
She took the gem she had cut out and waved it in front of the treasure appraisers. After letting them take a look, she immediately put it away and put it in her pocket.
Then, she looked at Haylau and said in a deep voice. “Haylan, I will definitely find out who you really are.
“I’ll see you in a while in God’s Land!”
With that, she jumped off the stage and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight, ignoring Steve and the others.

When Wesley heard that voice, he was a bit scared. He turned around and saw that Steve was already there.
