They still remembered how full of himself he had been, speaking as if the warriors from third-grade worlds were all just trash in the sewers. He did not hold back with his words at all and frustrated a lot of people. Even Rudy, who had just been standing by the side, could no longer take it.
He walked over and stood behind Justin, "Didn't you say that you were amazing? Why are you hiding behind? If you have the skills, come out and repeat what you said. If you have forgotten, I can repeat everything for you!"
Lorien shrunk back, not daring to reveal himself. He tried his best to squeeze backward, not wanting to pull out at that moment. However, the warriors from the third-grade worlds would not let him off easily. Rudy sneered and said, "Why haven't you come out yet?!"
Suddenly, Lorien shouts back angrily, "I refuse to come out, so what can you do about it? Why do I have to come out?!"
Rudy laughed coldly, "So you're just planning on staying at the back like a coward?"
Lorien had nothing to say at that. The warriors from Golden Continent all had looks of defeat on their faces at that moment. No one dared to say anything to defend Lorien. They were already thoroughly humiliated by what happened.
Some were starting to curse Dan for losing so quickly. They did not even have any excuses. It was far too embarrassing. They felt like they had never been so embarrassed in their lives. At that moment, Dan was as pale as a sheet of paper. Even his lips had lost their color, making him look like he was ill.
Fane sighed in exasperation. He did not want to keep looking at Dan acting like that. He reached out and said to Dan, "Have you forgotten that you need to pay up after losing a bet? Are you planning on going against the bet? I would love to see that. I would get to see you get struck by lightning."
Dan's lips twitched as he looked at Fane hatefully. It was as if Fane was his mortal enemy. Fane was already used to being looked at like that. Dan could look at Fane however he wants to.
Dan took a deep breath, and his hands trembled. He reluctantly pulled out the spirit crystals and Enlightened Soul Root from his storage space. The Enlightened Soul Root was placed in a box about the size of half a person. Fane's lips curled up, not even looking at Dan as he kept the spirit crystals and Enlightened Soul Root.
He said very happily, "Thanks!"
That felt like a stab right into Dan's chest. Dan felt his chest heat up then proceed to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Fane's lips twitched in exasperation. Dan was weaker than he thought. He had just said a few words, but Dan looked like Dan was about to die. How could he amount to anything if he acted like that?
Even if he was talented, he was so easily affected. It would definitely stop him from climbing to greater heights. However, Fane would not voice out those thoughts. He just coldly looked at Dan before walking away, leaving Dan behind.
