Chapter 2011
“How dare you humiliate me again and again when I’ve shown you nothing but kindness?!” shouted Wesley.

Jackie stared coldly at the man with triangular eyes and Wesley. “You’re the one who keeps on humiliating me! And there’s one thing you should get right, it’s that I want to humiliate but you served yourself up on a platter to be humiliated by me! Things wouldn’t have to be this way if you didn’t force me to give you the room I won that day!”

Jackie was on a roll. He was telling the truth but as the saying goes, the truth hurts. The others around them started to voice their opinions again.

“Is Jackie crazy? Or does he think he has nothing to lose since he had already offended Wesley many times before?”

“Yeah, I think that is. Might as well humiliate Wesley more since he knows he’s going to lose in the battle.”

Some of them could not help but sigh and shake their heads. “Yup, he’s definitely gone cray-cray. What he said would only spur Wesley on. No doubt Wesley would do his utmost to torture Jackie in their upcoming battle. He might even break the rules and cripple Jackie!”

Noel became even more resigned after listening to all their comments. He knew Jackie was really talented but that did not mean he would be able to defeat Wesley. He knitted his brows and in a low voice tried to warn Jackie, “Shut up, Brother Jackie. Are you crazy? You’ll anger Wesley even more if you continue on like this. He might even cripple you in the upcoming battle and then it’ll be too late for regrets.”

It was logical for Noel to be worried. However, Jackie did not care. He smiled and under everyone’s watchful gaze, stood up from his seat and slowly made his way over to Wesley. Wesley raised an eyebrow and looked curiously at Jackie. He wondered what he was doing when Jackie suddenly stopped five feet away from him.

“My wager is the individual room that I’m staying in right now. What’s your wager?” asked Jackie. Every contestant would bet on something before going up to the battle platform just like how Wesley and Dale both betted on a hundred and fifty contribution points for their battle.

Jackie asked about Wesley’s bet because Wesley did not have an individual room of his own and it made sense for him to ask but to the others, it sounded like he had totally gone insane. It was enough that he remained impassive after observing Wesley’s power and yet he still had the mood to ask Wesley for his wager? Yup, he had definitely gone insane.

Did Jackie really think he could beat Wesley in a battle? If he really did think so then there was really something wrong with his brain. Even Noel and Brook could not believe what they heard as they stared wide-eyed at Jackie.

Wesley was first dazed but then erupted in laughter as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the universe. “What did you say? Are you really asking me for my wager? Oh, Brother Jackie, you don’t seriously think you can win in a battle against me right? Where do you even get that confidence of yours? Or should I ask whether you were dropped as a child?”

Jackie raised an eyebrow and said, “Where did I get my confidence? That’s not something you should worry about. The only thing you need to do is answer me about your wager. Don’t think that I’ll fight against you if you don’t offer up a wager.”

The man with triangular eyes nearly exploded with rage. He did not say anything previously since Wesley had already jumped into the conversation but now he could not control himself anymore.

Chapter 2012
The man with triangular eyes strode rapidly toward Jackie and narrowed his eyes at him as if Jackie was the prey and he the predator. “I know what you’re trying to do!”

‘What am I trying to do?’ thought Jackie with confusion.

The man with triangular eyes scoffed and with an exaggerated gasp pointed at Jackie. “You’re trying to get out of the battle with Wesley!”

Jackie’s lips immediately set in a hard line. He was looking at the man with triangular eyes as if he had just escaped from a mental asylum. “Please tell me what have I said to make you think that way? Why would I ask him for his wager if I don’t want to have a battle with him?”
