Chapter 2292


    He had never thought of joining forces with the disciples of the Welkin Academy. Instead, he nned to


    work with Henry and Diney. By working together, they might be able to make it to the top three.


    “James, what are you daydreaming about?” Seeing that James was staring nkly into space, Yoan


    asked.


    “Huh?”


    James collected himself and said, “I-It’s nothing.”


    Yoan said, “Keep in mind that teamwork is key here. You should cooperate with the disciples of the


    Welkin Academy.”


    “Got it.” Though James was reluctant to do so, he could not disobey Yoan.


    “Alright now, you’re dismissed.”


    The headmaster waved his hand.


    Seeing this, the disciples turned to leave.


    After they left, the headmaster sighed and said, “Our disciples have beenpeting against each other


    all this while. As such, it might be a little difficult for them to work together.” Hearing this, the Sect


    Elders nodded in agreement. After all, they did not have a harmonious rtionship with each other as


    well.


    Jeffery said smilingly, “The tournament is all about participation and teamwork. So what if they fail to


    achieve good results? As long as they return safely, I’m content.”


    “Sir Jeffery, this is unlike you. Aren’t you apetitive guy?” A Sect Elder snickered.


    Jeffery smiled faintly and said nothing.


    The headmaster sighed and said, “What’s the point of saying all this now? They will only learn to work


    together once they understand how powerful the monsters are.”


    Yoan nodded and said, “I agree with the headmaster. Once they encounter great obstacles standing in


    their way, they will naturally band together and join forces. There’s no need for us to be worried about


    this. The Welkin Academy is full of talents. Quintina, for one, should have no problem getting into the


    top ten. Not only that, but my disciple James possesses great strength as well. Besides, he seems to


    have a close rtionship with Quintina. If they work together, they’re bound to make it into the top ten.”


    At the same time, James had returned to his lodgement. He stayed inside and regted his breathing


    in the courtyard in preparation for theing battle.


    A woman wearing a green dress walked in and looked at James, who was sitting in a lotus position.


    Then, she walked over to him and sat on a stone chair nearby.


    Sensing an unknown presence, James turned his head. Realizing that it was Quintina, he asked, “Is


    something the matter?”

    Quintina snickered. “Oh, it’s nothing serious. It’s just that the Grand Tournament will be held


    on Mount Walvern, which is a treacherous ce full of powerful monsters. If we act on our own, our


    progress might be hampered. So, why don’t we form a team?”


    She smiled confidently and said, “By working together, we should be able to defeat powerful monsters


    with ease. We might even get into the top ten.”


    James nced at her.


    Under normal circumstances, he would have epted her request.


    However, he already had partners of his own-Henry and Diney. Henry was already at the Immortal


    Ascensions’ Ninth Stair, while Diney had crossed into the Mage Rank. If they worked together, they


    could annihte even monsters at the Mage Rank. If they could obtain the demon elixir of the monsters


    in the Mage Rank, they should be able to enter the top ten with ease.


    “Hey, are you going to ept my proposal or not?”


    Seeing that James remained silent, Quintina stood up and said with a displeased tone,


    “Do you have any forces although I’vee personally to invite you.”


    idea how many people want to form a team with me? Yet, you seem reluctant to join


    James smiled faintly and said, “To be frank, I don’t really want to be on the same team as you.”


    “Hey!”


    Quintina shouted.
