They could have found a better alchemist from Phoenix Valley had they tried to. However, Elder Rick had deliberately caused a scene and insisted on recommending Fane, evoking everyone's doubt and ridicule.
Master Forrest had a smirk on his face as he walked toward Fane, saying as he turned to look at Elder Maurice, "This guy is obviously an excellent sixthgrade alchemist. I had thought that everyone participating this time would be seventh-grade alchemists."
Elder Maurice steeled himself, refusing to show any unsavory expression. He let out a laugh as he answered, "Fane truly is excellent among sixth-grade alchemists, but this is just a small tournament, so we didn't really put much thought into who we sent here."
Elder Maurice had not dared to be too confident. After all, he was not sure where Fane’s skills lay. Even if Fane had assured him earlier, Elder Maurice could not trust Fane wholeheartedly.
The vagueness of the answer intrigued Master Forrest. His gaze moved around as he looked at Fane with an even more curious expression. The three participants behind Master Forrest, too, looked at Fane peculiarly.
Elder Maurice, not willing to continue dwelling on the topic, took a deep breath and raised his voice, saying,"
Alright, it's almost time. Let's start the tournament. The rules will remain the same: best two out of three. As for what we're betting on, I won't repeat it. If we lose, we'll be willing to pay up."
There was weight in Elder Maurice's words, and his earlier confidence had seemed to have dissipated.
Elder Maurice had always been very confident in the alchemists produced by Phoenix Valley, but Fane's abrupt appearance had shattered his confidence.
Whatever would transpire from that moment onward was obscure, and he was no longer as proud.
Fane, meanwhile, frowned, wondering what it was they had betted on. Even though Elder Maurice did not say anything, Fane guessed that it had something to do with the conflict against the Unbreaking Pavilion.

I hope that by the end of the year fane will leave the whirling world and go to a new place...
This novel become with much unnecessary speech a lot of trash talk with a few of fight and advanced events even a fight with beast will take more then 10 chapters to be ended and many other important events will cost even more then then 20 chapters to end . U can remove the long unnecessary speech or u can post 20 chapters or more per day,if this not possible i will stop reading this novel,i don't have any other option because i'm not enjoying it...
It became a little boring,the events advanced slowly that 10 chapters become not enough to enjoy the events and there's a lot of unnecessary speech...
