Chapter 909: Chapter 909: The Bet
Wyatt Barnes spoke again, causing everyone at the scene, except for Teawhite and his disciples, to be utterly stunned.
What on earth was Wyatt Barnes doing?!
The other eight young disciples of the Five Elents Sect, except for Brady Yellow who seed thoughtful and Jaxx Nangle whose face was stern, including Detrius Nangle, felt a shiver down their spine.
Clearly, they were all frightened by Wyatt Barnes’s words.
Even Detrius Nangle, the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of Five Elents Sect, admitted he didn’t have the courage to provoke the Fla Peak’s Peak Master, ’Teawhite’ like that.
"Wyatt Barnes, you’re seeking death!"
After being provoked by Wyatt ti and again, an extrely furious Teawhite’s face instantly covered with a layer of frost, his eyes revealing a bone-chilling coldness, ready to devour.
"Peak Master Teawhite, are you just throwing a tantrum out of embarrassnt?"
Facing the furious Teawhite, Wyatt’s face still maintained its calm as he indifferently said, "Or perhaps, you think you weren’t bragging... and it’s
slandering you?"
"Isn’t it?"
Hearing Wyatt’s words, Teawhite couldn’t help but coldly scoff in response.
"Peak Master Teawhite, if you think you weren’t bragging, and it’s
slandering you... then how about we make a bet?"
A hard-to-detect brilliance flickered in Wyatt’s eyes while his tone remained flat and indifferent, devoid of any emotions.
"A bet?"
Hearing Wyatt’s words, everyone including Teawhite and Tatum Cruz were taken aback.
"Why should I make a bet with you?"
Soon, Teawhite disdainfully glanced at Wyatt and taunted, "Are you even worthy?"
"Haha... It seems Peak Master Teawhite is afraid."
Wyatt Barnes laughed heartily. After his laughter subsided, he tauntingly jeered without any inhibition.
"Do you think your little ’reverse psychology’ will work on ?"
Teawhite, the near-legendary Peak Master of Fla Peak of the Five Elents Sect, who had seen all sorts of things in life, instantly broke through Wyatt’s intent with just a sentence, his tone filled with disdain.
"What if I bet... that Tatum Cruz has not yet grasped even the ’Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire’?"
After being exposed by Teawhite, Wyatt not only didn’t get angry, but instead asked amicably.
"Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire?"
Teawhite was initially stunned, then couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Are you joking? My direct disciple ’Tatum Cruz’ was only a step away from grasping the ’Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire’..."
"Now, he has co out from the Mysterious Array; you’re telling
he hasn’t grasped the ’Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire’?"
As Teawhite spoke, he looked at Wyatt with a mocking expression, as if looking at a huge joke.
"I bet you... if Tatum Cruz’s Realm of Fire has not improved at all, still only at the ’Seventh-Order Interdiate Realm of Fire,’ you lose to
a ’Seventh-Order Thunder Realm Fragnt.’ If Tatum Cruz’s Realm of Fire improved to ’Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire’ and above, I will join your sect, join Fla Peak, and vow by the ’Ninety-Nine Thunder Tribulation’ never to betray! How about that?"
Wyatt Barnes did not respond to Teawhite’s words, and spoke indifferently on his own.
Wyatt’s words, clearly entered Tatum Cruz’s ears, causing his face to change instantly as if he suddenly rembered sothing.
"Could it be, my ’Realm of Fire’ really hasn’t improved as I sensed?"
A worrying premonition quietly rose in Tatum’s heart.
"But even if it is so... how could Wyatt Barnes possibly know?"
This, Tatum Cruz could not fathom at all.
In his view, the ’Mysterious Array’, left behind by a Martial Emperor, was incredibly profound.
Almost everyone who entered it gained trendous benefits.
Logically, he should be no exception.
Even if he truly beca that exception, how could Wyatt Barnes possibly know?
Wyatt’s words, not only reached Tatum’s ears but also Teawhite’s, Jaxxon Spacewood’s, and every single person present at the scene.
Wyatt Barnes wanted to bet with Teawhite.
The bet was that Tatum Cruz, after coming out from the Mysterious Array, had no improvent in his ’Realm of Fire,’ still only at the ’Seventh-Order Interdiate Realm of Fire.’
If Tatum Cruz had made any breakthrough, then he would lose!
If he won, he would get a ’Seventh-Order Thunder Realm Fragnt’ from Teawhite.
If he lost, he would lose himself to Teawhite, to Fla Peak, and vow by the ’Ninety-Nine Thunder Tribulation’ never to betray!
Instantly, the whole place was in uproar.
Except for Callen Spacewood and Brady Yellow who seed thoughtful, including the Sect Leader Grini Clifford of the Five Elents Sect, everyone else was dumbstruck.
In their view, the bet Wyatt Barnes put forward was almost certainly a sure loss!
"Perhaps, Wyatt Barnes doesn’t want to stay at Niklaus Woodson, and is keen on joining Fla Peak... what he said about the bet, is rely his excuse."
"Surely, Peak Master Teawhite has promised Wyatt sothing substantial to entice him to move to Fla Peak, and he’s tempted... but, he’s too embarrassed to directly defect from Niklaus Woodson, fearing he’ll beco the second Tatum Cruz, scorned by all! Thus, he chose to switch to Fla Peak in this manner."
...
Several disciples of the Five Elents Sect including Joy Thomsen and David Field couldn’t help but think to themselves.
Besides that, they couldn’t understand why Wyatt would voluntarily make this bet with Teawhite, as it was clear that this bet was destined for Wyatt to lose without a doubt.
Tatum Cruz had already grasped the ’Seventh-Order Interdiate Realm of Fire.’
Not to ntion that before he entered the Mysterious Array, he was only a step away from understanding the ’Level Eight Interdiate Realm of Fire.’
Even if he had just grasped the ’Seventh-Order Mid-Tier Fire Realm’ before entering the Mystical Array, after coming out of the Mystical Array, he would inevitably comprehend the ’Eighth-Order Mid-Tier Fire Realm.’
Yet now, Wyatt Barnes claid that Tatum Cruz, after entering and exiting the Mystical Array, still stagnated in comprehension of the ’realm,’ remaining at the ’Seventh-Order Mid-Tier Fire Realm.’
This was almost impossible!
Only Callen Spacewood and Brady Yellow, from a distance, watched Wyatt Barnes thoughtfully.
"What on earth does Wyatt Barnes want to do? Look at Tatum Cruz’s expression... could it be..."
Callen Spacewood, observant and astute, quickly noticed sothing off about Tatum Cruz’s complexion, a stir in his heart.
The scene before him made him increasingly certain that Wyatt Barnes intentionally lured Teawhite into the ’trap,’ aiming to obtain a ’Seventh-Order Thunder Realm Fragnt’ from Teawhite.
"This little guy, needing a ’Thunder Realm Fragnt,’ why didn’t he just tell ? It seems he does not want to owe
any favors."
Muttering to himself, Callen Spacewood could not help but sigh deeply towards the end.
"I just said, Wyatt Barnes was smiling sowhat oddly just now... sure enough, there’s sothing fishy!"
Brady Yellow, gazing at Wyatt Barnes, his mouth curling into a smug smile, wore an expression of ’Bro Brady saw through you long ago.’
"Is what you said true?!"
Teawhite, shocked by Wyatt Barnes’s words, was stupefied for a mont before finally coming back to his senses, his eyes glowing as he stared at Wyatt Barnes and asked loudly.
It must be admitted, before this, he had quite a few grievances against Wyatt Barnes.
But that was also because Wyatt Barnes had insulted his direct disciple, ’Tatum Cruz.’
If Wyatt Barnes were a Fla Peak disciple, even if Wyatt Barnes truly insulted his direct disciple ’Tatum Cruz,’ he would not hold any resentnt towards Wyatt Barnes.
He would only rejoice that Fla Peak had produced a disciple even more outstanding than his own direct disciple!
Now, Wyatt Barnes claid that as long as his direct disciple ’Tatum Cruz’ grasped the ’Eighth-Order Mid-Tier Fire Realm’ or higher, he would switch his allegiance to his sect, to Fla Peak.
And he was willing to swear by the ’Ninth-Order Thunder Tribulation’ to never betray Fla Peak for life.
For a mont, he was completely overco with joy.
He even had no ti to wonder why Wyatt Barnes would propose such an outrageous bet, risking his life for a ’Seventh-Order Thunder Realm Fragnt.’
At this mont, all he knew was that he was undoubtedly going to win, and Wyatt Barnes would also subsequently join their Fla Peak.
Perhaps, considering this, Wyatt Barnes decided to use himself as the bet.
"Absolutely! But I wonder, Peak Master Teawhite, do you dare to bet with ?"
In response to Teawhite’s loud inquiry, Wyatt Barnes nodded, then asked back with a questioning look.
"Since you intend to join our ’Fla Peak,’ how could I refuse? Rest assured, Wyatt Barnes, once you join us at Fla Peak, both Tatum Cruz and I will let bygones be bygones with you, we will not hold past grievances against you... and also, I assure you that Fla Peak will not treat you poorly!"
Teawhite, sowhat disoriented with excitent, said with a smile.
Clearly, Teawhite accepted Wyatt Barnes’s bet.
"Good."
Wyatt Barnes also smiled, his smile radiant.
"Wait a minute!"
Just then, Teawhite’s expression tightened, and he suddenly exclaid.
"Hmm?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned, had Teawhite realized sothing?
Or perhaps, had Tatum Cruz co to his senses and told him everything, causing him to have second thoughts?
Soon, Wyatt Barnes realized he had thought too much.
"Sect Leader, please bear witness to the bet between
and Wyatt Barnes!"
In his excitent, Teawhite did not forget to ask Grini Clifford, the Sect Leader of the Five Elents Sect, to be the witness.
This way, it was not because he feared Wyatt Barnes would go back on his word, but because he feared that Callen Spacewood might intervene afterward.
He knew Callen Spacewood’s strength; he was no match for him.
If Callen Spacewood truly intended to take Wyatt, who was about to switch allegiance to Fla Peak, back to Niklaus Woodson Peak, he could not stop Callen Spacewood, and it would all be for naught in the end.
Grini Clifford frowned, glancing at Callen Spacewood as if inquiring his opinion.
Callen Spacewood nodded.
"Tatum Cruz!"
Seeing Callen Spacewood nod, Grini Clifford responded to Teawhite, then turned to look at Tatum Cruz, standing far away and still lost in thought, and called out.
However, Tatum Cruz did not respond, standing there motionless as if bewitched.
"Tatum Cruz!"
Seeing Tatum Cruz unresponsive for a long ti, Teawhite beca anxious.
Slap!
Teawhite took a few steps towards Tatum Cruz and slapped the back of his head, snapping him out of it.
"Master... Master!"
Once Tatum Cruz ca to, the first thing he saw was Teawhite standing before him, and he could not help but cry out in panic.
"What are you standing around for? Show your ’Fire Realm’ at once!"
Teawhite’s voice bood like thunder, his eyes widening anxiously as he barked.
