The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 945

As Jerome took the lead, the remaining 29 representatives followed suit and made their way to the stage.

The host brought a box for drawing lots and placed it in front of the contestants. He signaled for them to line up and draw lots one by one.

Coincidentally, Jerome stood behind Hickman in the line.

“We better not end up in the same group, Mr. Griffith,” Hickman remarked.

“What do you mean?” Jerome asked.

“As long as we ain’t grouped together, I won’t be eliminating you too soon,” Hickman said with a confident tone.

“Mr. Adams, are you that certain that you will win?” Jerome asked with a deep voice.

“I’ve spent countless years immersed in the Treasure Appraisal Industry. Evaluating gemstones is one of my greatest strengths. If we end up in the same group, I won’t show any mercy, not even to Mr. Jaber,” Hickman confidently stated.

That was a provocation!

It was an overt provocation.

Jerome’s eyes narrowed, his tone becoming colder. “We’ll see about that. Let’s see who comes out on top in the end.” “Alright, everyone, it’s time to draw lots. Numbers 1, 3, and 5 will be in one group, numbers 2, 4, and 6 in another, and numbers 7, 8, and 9 in the final group,” the host announced.

Hickman stepped forward and drew his lot. He revealed a small ball labeled with the number “6” on it.

“Next up, let’s welcome the next participant,” the host declared as Hickman’s number “6” was announced.

Jerome stepped forward and extended his hand into the box, retrieving a small ball with the number “4” marked on it. “Mr. Griffith, you have drawn number 4, which means you will be in the same group as Mr. Hickman,” the host announced.

Hickman raised his eyebrows slightly.

Jerome walked over and placed the ball he had drawn into a separate box designated for the group selection.
