In fact. Fane could not contain himself for long with the triangular-eyed man pestering him, right next to him. To everyone’s surprise, Fane abruptly turned around and stared at the man with triangular eyes coldly. Sneering, he said," I've always been a vengeful person, and you'd do well to remember my words."
After he finished speaking, Fane turned around and walked toward the battle arena in the middle. At this moment, Wesley was already standing at the east side of the battle area, and Fane stood opposite him. The two of them looked at each other, one of them expressionless while the other looked contemptuous. Wesley looked at Fane as if he was an idiot or a dummy, but Fane's expression remained passive for the most part.
It looked like no matter what expressions Wesley had on his face, it would not affect Fane. The sound of people discussing what was happening beneath the stage was noisy enough to hurt people's ears. After all, none of them expected things to develop until such a situation. A lot of busybodies started to send transmission runes to their friends who were not there to watch the battle so that they would not miss the great battle.
Both Brook and Noel stared at those two, staring at each other from a distance as they stood on the battle stage, with frowns on their faces. They had no idea what to say at that moment. After some time, Brook lowered his voice as he spoke to Noel," Senior Brother Noel, do you think that Senior Brother Fane has given up?" Brook was incredibly wary at this point, and he did not feel that there was something wrong with what he said.
Instead, he was hesitant as he felt that Wesley would surely defeat Fane, and that particular scene was unimaginable to him.
Noel frowned and sighed softly before he spoke with a hint of uncertainty, "I have no idea, but I don’t think Fane's brain had malfunctioned or something.” In fact, he had no idea what he should say. Although he knew that Fane was very talented in terms of the soul attribute, he had no idea which level was Fane's true strength at.
Fane was only at the initial stage of innate level, but Wesley had already achieved the intermediate stage of innate level. From the fighting prowess alone, Wesley was one level ahead of Fane. On top of that, Fane had only joined the Dual Sovereign Pavilion for a dozen days and had yet to be trained and groomed by the pavilion. How could he be Wesley's opponent when he had his talents but not the resources?
He might not be able to defeat Wesley even if he was in the same realm as Wesley, let alone challenging Wesley at a lower level!
As they stood on the battle arena, Wesley could not help but sneered at Fane's seemingly expressionless face, commenting. "You're a good actor, I'll hand that to you. You still can be passive at a time like this. You have no idea what'll happen to you, do you?"
Fane raised his eyebrows. "Can you just get on with it? What’s the point of making these useless remarks?"
The informal disciples sitting at the audience seats were baffled upon hearing Fane's remark. His brain must have been filled with water, and the damage must have been detrimental. Why else would he say such a thing?
"Do you have any idea what you are talking about, young man?" jeered Wesley. "You're challenging me from a lower level, and you've only joined the Dual Sovereign Pavilion recently. Do you truly think that you can defeat me?!” Wesley laughed as he spoke.
Fane nodded and actually replied levelheadedly, "I wouldn't be standing here if I wasn't sure I can defeat you."
Right after that, a suffocating silence appeared first before somebody snickered, and laughter filled the entire area. A large group of people broke out into laughter because of what Fane said, looking at Fane as though he was the biggest clown for thinking he could defeat Wesley. Did he not understand that he was only in the initial stage of innate level and did not have the support of powerful resources?
On what grounds did he think that he could defeat Wesley? Was it just because of the fact that he ranked first place during the admission assessment? That admission assessment was nothing to the Dual Sovereign Pavilion disciples who joined the pavilion through the usual admission tests, and many of them there could have done what Fane did!
Wesley scoffed indignantly. "You truly are entertaining. The fact that I'm fighting with someone like you in the battle arena is an insult to me!"
