Fane was incredibly curious as he looked at the alchemists from the two other worlds. He noticed that, compared to the stronger Chaos Continent, the alchemists from the White Marsh Continent seemed a lot prouder of themselves.
They looked at the alchemists from Hestia Continent with looks that were full of disdain, especially the alchemist that stood in front of all of them. Fane knew that person. It was Ethan, who had mocked them through the image earlier.
He was the leader of the alchemists from White Marsh Continent. To not stir any unnecessary trouble, Fane remained standing at the end of Hestia Continent's group.
Right after the voice announced that the tournament would only start after two hours, Ethan had a look of impatience on his face. After a while, he actually shouted, "There's no need to prepare at all. Why do we need to wait for so long? Just start right now. After getting the golden treasure, I still have a lot more things I need to do."
He sounded quite arrogant and sure that he would definitely get the golden treasure. His words had even offended the alchemists from the Chaos Continent.
The one standing in front of the alchemists from Chaos Continent turned to coldly look at Ethan,"
You're not that skilled, but you sure have a lot to say. You claimed that you would definitely get the golden treasure as if you're the best in the world."
Ethan's face darkened. He absolutely hated anyone who spoke back to him. No matter how unreasonable he was being, he did not want anyone talking back.
He turned to look at who seemed like the leader of the Chaos Continent's alchemists, and coldly said, "I might not be considered the best, but I can obviously get the golden treasure if I'm competing against trash like you. You were just here to make up the numbers!
"Emilio Lawrence, we've known each other for so many years. I know very well how strong you are.
Don't think that I'll look at you better just because you said that, and think that you can snatch the golden treasure away from me!"
At that moment, the atmosphere was incredibly heated. He was practically slapping Emilio in the face. Emilio might not be someone who liked unnecessary trouble, but he would not let someone just bully him like that either.
Emilio narrowed his eyes, "We definitely have known each other for many years, and I know that you have a few tricks up your sleeves as well. That's why I don't have to hear you brag! I heard that you're so pleased with yourself that you even transferred your image to Hestia Continent.
"All you're good for is bragging in front of them. In Chaos Continent, you would just be a slightly talented alchemist. You would have nothing to brag about at all!"
Ethan's face reddened when he heard that, and turned around to point at Emilion, "All I'm doing is speaking the truth, you just don't want to admit it. That's why you're lying and saying that I'm bragging. All of you were just here to make up the numbers. Do you think you're worthy of taking the golden treasure away from me?"
If not for the laws that were in place, the two of them could have very well started fighting. The atmosphere between the two continents started to get more and more heated. Comparatively, Hestia Continent's side was a lot quieter.
Emilio's words had not only mocked Ethan, but had insulted Hestia Continent as well. It was possible that, in those people's eyes, Hestia Continent was trash, and Hestia Continent were the ones who were really just there to make up the numbers.
