“Elder Sawyer, I believe that you are fair and unprejudiced. Although we had an altercation with him in the beginning, we did not overdo things. Even if that guy was resentful, he should’ve considered your support toward Senior Brother Wesley and refrained himself from carrying out such a violent attack. The martial skills of the soul attribute cause people to be wounded terribly. That guy did not care about anything and directly wounded Senior Brother Wesley badly. His body wounds can be easily healed but not the wounds on his soul within a short period of time!”

A hint of anger flashed through Elder Sawyer’s old eyes as he slightly narrowed them. However, the anger disappeared soon. “Not only is this guy strong, but he also has a bad temper. As an elder of the sect, I cannot simply take action against disciples. However, if I allow this guy to develop at will, he will soon step over me someday in the future.”

The man with triangular eyes quickly went along with the conversation when he heard this. “That’s right! Elder Sayer, this guy is really arrogant. Not only that, I think that he’s also haughty and inflexible. He seems to be a vengeful person. Although he has wounded Senior Brother Wesley severely, I feel that he would still settle accounts in the future. Elder, what do you think we should do in the future…”

Elder Sayer’s originally calm face darkened increasingly. He humphed coldly. “There’s no need for you to prod me into action as I know what to do. Treat this as a lesson for Wesley. He always does things according to his will and bullied others just because he thinks he’s extremely talented. What you said about that guy seeking revenge in the future makes sense. However, you need to understand that the young man is considered one of the top disciples in the sect considering his talents and strength. We will definitely suffer a terrible loss if we simply go against him. We need to find an opportunity to take him down for good.”

The man with triangular eyes grew excited when he heard this. “I shall obey your orders!” Elder Sayer raised his eyebrows. “Alright. I know what you’re thinking and you’re worried about Jackie taking it out on you. There’s no need to worry about that. With my presence, he would not dare do anything to you. However, there’s a time limit on this. If we allow Jackie to grow, he would definitely threaten you and even myself. We cannot allow somebody with a grudge toward the Sayer family to continue to develop.”

The man with triangular eyes nodded with all his might. He was about to continue speaking when they suddenly heard the rapid sound of bells ringing.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The bells were so loud that they could be heard in every corner of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion. The rapid sound of the bells caused the two of them, who were in the room, to be stunned.

Elder Sayer raised his eyebrows and looked outside the window. His eyes, filled with experiences, were slightly stunned. “I thought that this would happen after some time. Who would have expected them to start the battle now? Those people from the Muddled Origin Clan are really impatient.”

The man with triangular eyes did not know what was going on. Elder Sayer looked at him and explained everything like a responsible teacher even though he seldom spoke to such informal disciples that were not talented. “This is the only bell in the Dual Sovereign Pavilion and it will not be rung unless something important has happened. Now that the bell rang, It means that the great battle between sects is happening.”

A great battle at this moment was naturally the conflict they had with the Muddled Origin Clan. The corners of Elder Sayer’s mouth curled upward. “This is a great opportunity and you should cherish it.”

Jackie naturally heard the rapid sound of the bells. He was not in the wager battle arena at that moment. Instead, he had gone to the soul hall with Noel and the others. Jackie was considered one of Noel’s friends at that moment. The others might not understand what the rapid clanking of the bells meant but Noel did.

Jackie’s expression darkened after he listened to the short explanation by Noel. At that very moment, he had already made new plans. Brook followed behind the two of them like a puppy and he was also in the soul hall. Noel was on duty that afternoon. The soul hall was quiet and empty as nobody visited the place during normal times. They sat around the long table and the runner disciple of the soul hall, Zayn, prepared a pot of tea for them.

Chapter 2037
The smell of the fragrant tea overflowed into the space but they obviously did not pay any attention to how good the tea smelled. Noel spoke helplessly, “In the end, we are still going to war. How did this happen so quickly? Senior Brother Jackie, do you plan to join the war? You can get quite a large number of contribution points if you manage to kill some people during the battle.”

Many of those present looked over to Jackie at the same time when they heard what Noel said. Jackie shook his head decisively. “It is true that I can receive quite a significant amount of contribution points if I accept this task and leave the sect to kill the enemies. However, my strength at this moment cannot ensure my safety. It is true that the members of the Muddled Origin Clan want the people from our sect dead, but the people from our sect are also wishing for my death.”

The people around him immediately quieted down when they heard what Jackie said. They were able to identify the hidden meaning behind what Jackie said, Although Jackie was more talented than many others, he had also made quite a significant amount of enemies. Many people would take action against Jackie out of jealousy. Wesley and the others would definitely not allow him to continue to grow stronger.

Noel nodded and said, “In that case, do you plan to remain in the sect and train for some time before you leave to kill the enemies?” Jackie sighed helplessly. “That’s the plan for the time being. However, I have no idea when Wesley will send over the bets he owes me. I have no idea how badly wounded he is and I don’t know if he will wake up within these three days.”

Jackie had won 150 sect contribution points from Wesley and that was sufficient to support his training for ten days. On top of that, he had also won two soul-penetrating pills from Wesley and they were worth a fortune. At that moment, Jackie was worried about whether Wesley would send the bets over. He thought about it and said, “If there aren’t other choices, I shall go over and ask for the items. After all, I am in a rush to practice…”

Noel and the others chuckled when they heard what Jackie said. They could imagine how angry Wesley would be when Jackie could no longer wait and personally visit him to ask for them.

However, footsteps could be heard after Jackie finished speaking. Everybody was stunned and wondered who would visit the Soul Hall at this moment. Noel turned around and happened to see Steward Chapman walking in with a smile on his face. He had several items in his hands. Noel narrowed his eyes and quickly stood up from behind the long table. Steward Chapman had a kind smile on his face but he did not look like an easy-going person as he had an eagle-like nose and foxy eyes.

Steward Chapman nodded to Noel and turned around to look at Jackie without saying anything. He arrived at the long table and gently placed the tray on the long table. “Elder Sayer asked me to send over the bets.”

Jackie raised his eyebrows as he sized up Steward Chapman. There were two boxes on the tray. He casually took one of the boxes and as he opened the box, it revealed the black pill in front of everybody there. The pill had many complicated runes carved on it that looking at it once was enough to shock one’s soul. The pill also had a weird scent that taking a whiff of it made them feel instantly refreshed and relaxed.

“This is the soul-penetrating pill?” Jackie asked.

Steward Chapman nodded and stretched out his hand. He spoke calmly, “Please hand me your identity token. There are 150 sect contribution points for you.” Jackie nodded and took his identity token out of his storage space before passing it to Steward Chapman.

Chapter 2038
Steward Chapman brought out a glowing red identity token. Both the size and materials were obviously better than the disciple’s identity token. The name’ Maynard Sayer’ was written on the identity card and though Jackie did not know Maynard, he could guess that it was the identity token of Elder Sayer.

Steward Chapman then took out a yellow paper with many runes written on it and placed it in front of Jackie. “I’ll need you to sign this transfer of ownership paper.”

Jackie glanced sideways at Noel but did not detect anything peculiar in his expression so he signed the paper which immediately burst into flames after he lifted his pen. This stunned him a little.

“There are rules in the clan associations. Contribution points cannot be transferred to one another willy-nilly. If you need to transfer the contribution points, you need to sign the transfer paper. Only after signing the transfer paper, the points can be transferred to your identity token,” explained Steward Chapman impassively.

After the explanation, Jackie’s identity token began to glow slightly. Jackie lightly washed his divine senses across it and as expected, his previously zero contribution points had increased to a hundred and fifty points. Steward Chapman then bowed slightly, turned around, and left with the tray without saying anything
