Emilio was so angry that he started to pant. He looked at Ethan even more angrily. Emilio had never hated Ethan so much before. Even if the two of them had never gotten along, it was just a competitive relationship. He had never hated Ethan as he did at that moment.
If he had the chance. Emilio would definitely make Ethan suffer and have him wishing he was dead. Ethan's words had been too appalling, completely looking down on Emilio. It caused even the other alchemists from Chaos Continent to feel incredibly uncomfortable.
The Chaos Continent was the strongest out of all three worlds in the end, so they naturally had their own pride. After hearing those words, they could not stand it. An alchemist behind Emilio immediately shouted," Emilio just doesn't want to have a petty argument with you, so he minded his words. I can't believe you got so conceited. Before the results are even out, you're already so arrogant!
"The barrier obscured everything, so you didn't know how the others did at all. How are you so sure that you're in the first place?!"
Ethan raised an eyebrow, not even bothering to spare the others a glance. He said coldly, "I don't need to look at the results of everyone else at all. All I care
about is my own results. My results alone are enough to completely beat all of you. Why would I need to look at anyone else?"
After saying that, Ethan laughed maniacally. The alchemists from White Marsh Pavilion behind him all went in tune with him.
"Ethan's right! There's no need to look at the other results at all!"
"Ethan is just that strong! All of you are just envious, but you're acting so indignantly. It's not that he's acting arrogantly, you're just not confident enough yourself!"
When Ethan heard that, his smile deepened. Those words were precisely what he wanted to hear. He never felt like he was arrogant. He just felt like they were guilty.
They knew what would happen if the results were not good, that was why they did not like how he was acting!
"In just a moment, news of me getting the golden treasure will be spread out. Before we head back, the alchemists on our side have already prepared to welcome us. This will be the third golden treasure for White Marsh Continent. No matter how strong Chaos Continent is, you'll only have one more than us!"
When Ethan said that, he was acting incredibly proud. He felt like he was making a great contribution to White Marsh Continent. He was even beginning to think about how his fellow students would celebrate him when he got back.
He thought about how enviously the other alchemists would look at him. He had already earned himself some glory before this, but it was not much compared to this one.
When the time comes, he would be able to get amazing resources thanks to the golden treasure he got. It would improve his skills and status even more. Just thinking about the future, Ethan could not stop himself from smiling.
All these pieces of trash did not understand him at all. The moment he said what he did, the alchemists from the other two continents could not help but frown, feeling like Ethan was too confident.
After all, Emilio was still fighting against him. He did not know Emilio's results but was acting happily as if he had already gotten the golden treasure.
