Grayson and Rudy had already been completely frightened by what had happened before. They wanted nothing more than to retreat. However, Fane could only move forward.
Yet, there were some things he could not help but care about. If he went to Phoenix Valley alone, he would definitely be suspected of what had happened before.
If there were witnesses present, the matter could still be explained. Phoenix Valley was already somewhere Rudy and Grayson no longer cared about, but it was still where Fane absolutely had to go.
Only by going to Phoenix Valley would Fane be able to receive the nurturing necessary to become a seventhgrade alchemist. Only by becoming a seventh-grade alchemist would Fane be able to earn a lot of spirit crystals.
He would then be able to obtain the ninth-grade spirit crystals and make his preparations to enter Wild Gorge Path. With that amount of spirit crystals, anyone would end up being unable to cope, but Fane did not feel that much pressure.
Even though it was an incredibly large amount, Fane felt like he would be able to earn it as long as he put his mind to it. Rudy walked forward with a frown, thinking about something.
After a while, he suddenly said, "I feel like it's a bit of a pity if I just give up like that, but I also feel like Wild Gorge Path really isn't that great a place to me. 1
"That place will definitely be filled with talented people. I might not be able to receive much attention even if I do go there. It's probably better to go back to Golden Pills. Even though I'd be berated, I would still be given a lot of attention."
Rudy could not help but look a little guilty as he said that. In the end, he was still a little hesitant about his decision. Before he had come here, he had felt like he would definitely be able to excel in Phoenix Valley.
He would be able to become a subject of admiration even among the older students. Yet, what had happened completely changed Rudy's thoughts.
