Chapter 2001
After all, jackie had mentally prepared himself for all the gossip that would inevitably happen once his presence was made known in the wager battle arena. However, the same could not be said for Brook as Wesley and his group kept looking over in their direction.

Brook sighed and whispered to jackie, “Be careful, Brother jackie. Those people over there don’t seem to be looking at us too kindly. I bet that Wesley has some tricks up his sleeve when it’s your turn to fight against him.”

He did not doubt that Wesley would do everything short of killing jackie and to his words, jackie only nodded. He, too, had expected that Brooke found jackie’s composure a bit odd. Although he knew that jackie possessed extraordinary power, that did not mean that he could win in a fight against Wesley, who was in the running to be a chosen disciple after only joining for half a year. Wesley’s power and talent were something Brook had wished for himself for the longest time.

“You don’t seem to be worried?” asked Brook when he realized jackie was still staring impassively at the arena, waiting for the fight to start, which would take another thirty minutes.

“Why should I worry? Did you think that I agreed to the fight because I want to protect my pride?” jackie retorted.

‘Isn’t it?’ thought Brook. He had always thought that was the reason or else why would jackie agree to fight a person who was way stronger than him? He did not think there was even a chance for the fight to come to a draw, and winning over Wesley would be even more impossible.

jackie did not have to look at Brook to know what he was thinking as his silence said it all. He smiled and said, “There’s no use explaining it to you now. You would definitely not believe me. You’ll soon understand everything.”

This made Brook even more confused. Was jackie hinting at something that was going to happen later? What could it be? He thought about it and came up with the conclusion that the only way to make him change his perspective was if jackie got into a huge fight with Wesley

At that thought, he abruptly straightened his back and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. jackie must be mad if he was really planning to do that. Just when he was about to ask jackie this, a sudden commotion caught his attention. He turned to the source and saw a delicate man making his way from afar.

jackie instantly knew who he was from the whisperings of the crowd.

“Brother Dale is actually on time. I thought he would come at the last minute.”

“Yeah. He is known for his last-minute arrival. He must be well-acquainted with Brother Wesley’s temper. Who knows what Brother Wesley would say If he came late.”

Chapter 2002
“I’ve been looking forward to this fight for the longest time. They have always been at odds with each other with both of them wanting to step on each other’s heads. It’s only natural that Brother Dale doesn’t want to give Brother Wesley a chance to find faults with him.”

“To be honest, I don’t think Brother Wesley is on good terms with a lot of other brothers here.”

“There’s no doubt about that. He has always looked down on those whose power is beneath him. Why, just a few days ago, he totally ignored me when I greeted him! It was then that I found the rumors about his personality to be true.”

All their comments drifted into jackie’s ears. Apart from his posse of suck-ups, Wesley seemed to have garnered a reputation of being difficult to get along with, no doubt due to his arrogance.

As soon as Dale arrived at the viewing platform, he glanced at Wesley for a second and immediately went to sit down at an area furthest from Wesley. It looked like the rumor of them being at odds with each other was true.
