"It's not like I didn't see Conrad's results from before. He finished six hundred pill runes, and he's not even as good as Claude from our Phoenix Valley. I am a bit suspicious, admittingly.
"Since he didn't have good results before at condensing pill runes, how did he manage to remember and condense sixty pill runes in such a short amount of time?"
After hearing that, everyone looked up.
"Are you questioning the integrity of the tournament?" growled Master Forrest. "You think that Conrad cheated?"
Fane shook his head. "I'm not questioning anything. It's just that I feel that his results are a bit strange based on what we've seen."
Fane then looked at Conrad. Even though Conrad tried his best to compose himself, Fane could detect a trace of guilt in his eyes.
Conrad looked like someone had stabbed his back as he suddenly shouted, "Are you the only one who can refine a Three Suns Pill, and everyone that does is considered to have cheated?!"
Fane calmly shook his head at that accusing tone. "Of course I don't mean it that way. It's just that your results in the first stage were far too bad. If you had
results like Bradley, I wouldn't have been suspicious at all.
"You managed to refine a Three Suns Pill now, but your results in the first stage weren't that great. Even though the results of the first stage do not directly affect the results of the second, they're still connected.
