The vice-treasurer let out a cold laugh. "How embarrassing. You had such an ugly fight in front of all your fellow students. Do you think this looks good on you? Can't you just let your skills do the talking? What is the point of all these schemes?!"
Those words seemed to have a clear target. After the treasurer finished speaking, he shot a sharp look at Gilbert. Gilbert could feel that burning gaze of his, and his throat tightened.
Fane felt like laughing when he saw Gilbert's state. Before, Gilbert seemed utterly dauntless, and he acted like he was the strongest person in Heavenly Pills. However, when someone who was actually important appeared, he shrank into nothing.
Gilbert truly was not worth mentioning.
Fane had beaten Gilbert up before and was already kind enough to show mercy. Fane should have just shown Gilbert who he could not afford to offend back then.
Gilbert must have felt a pair of eyes sharply staring at him for too long that he looked up, meeting Fane's condescending stare in the process.
At that moment, Gilbert felt like he had been slapped a few times. His face suddenly reddened as he looked like he wanted to rip Fane apart.
Fane, however, raised an eyebrow, unbothered. His relationship with Gilbert was impossible to fix, anyway. If they had the chance, they would definitely kill one another, so there was no need to maintain any sense of peace.
The treasurer said, "The Middle Kingdom Alchemist Alliance is the holy land of all alchemists, despite the fact that the one in Rosefinch City is only an off-branch.
"Nonetheless, we can't rush things. Being able to become a student of the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance is an honor."
When everyone heard that, looks of admiration appeared in their eyes. However, Fane felt like something was strange.
