Chapter 2828


    Chapter 2828


    Cody’s words were downright provocative toward the Compass Pavilion. He had wanted to quickly end


    the fight for the Compass Pavilion’s reputation, but he never expected the attack to end up with a draw,


    even when he did not hold back.


    This, in turn, made Cody worry. However, he did not care about anything else at that moment as a


    thought shed across his mind. No matter what price he had to pay, he had to win this battle. It was


    not just a personal victory but also for the sake of his n’s reputation!


    Rudy, meanwhile, was entirely focused on alchemy, and the battle between Cody and Vale was merely


    something for him to watch. He could only see that the two of them seemed evenly matched, and a true


    victor could not be determined at this point.


    He listened as the crowd continued to talk. Some of them said that Vale was stronger, while others said


    that Cody was no weakling and that he woulde out as the winner. Various judgments were cast at


    that moment, which caused Rudy’s ears to buzz listening to all of it.


    He could not help but turn to nce at Jackie. All he saw was Jackie looking at the arena calmly, his


    expression undisturbed. It was as if he would not even bat an eye if someone died in the arena.


    Rudy did not truly trust everyone else‘s judgment, but he would with Jackie’s.


    He whispered and asked, “Jackie, who do you think will win?”


    Jackie pointed at Cody and replied, sounding rather sure of himself, “Cody seems to have the


    advantage.”


    This stunned Rudy. After all, both of them had taken a step back after the sh. It did not seem like


    Cody had gained much of an advantage, so why did Jackie say that Cody had the upper hand?


    Jackie did not want to exin himself, but Rudy looked at Jackie with wide eyes. He even looked like


    he would ask more if he did not get an answer, and this made Jackie frown helplessly.


    “Cody obviously seemed much more rxed after the two of them shed. It doesn‘t seem like he


    used his full power,” Jackie exined calmly.


    Rudy, not agreeing with Jackie’s opinion, asked with furrowed eyebrows, “Are you looking at their


    expressions? How could you determine who’s stronger between them like that? After all, everyone’s


    different, so even their expressions…”


    “Just shut up for now,” interrupted Jackie curtly. “There’s no way to prove anything even if we talk about


    it more. Just wait and look at the results.”


    Rudy’s mouth stiffened as he reluctantly closed his lips.


    The battle stopped for a moment as Cody and Vale stood at their respective sides, staring at each


    other. They were only pausing for a moment to look for weak points, but Jackie felt like Vale seemed to


    be in a panic at that moment.


    Vale inhaled deeply, hiding his feelings as he raised his head. His anger at that moment was evident in


    his reddened eyes.


    Cody snorted as he raised his eyebrow. “Aren’t you going to attack again? Are you scared now?”

    Vale’s hands trembled as he nearly exploded with curses. Cody was downright infuriating! Everything


    he said made his temper soar.


    Vale snorted loudly and said, “You’re talking about me? Do you think I’m the only one in the arena? You


    haven’t attacked me at all, so what right do you have to criticize me?”


    Codyughed, not taking it to heart. “I’m giving you a head-start. After all, you’re nothing to me. If you


    still refuse to attack, the spectators might call you out for wasting time!”


    Vale had still been able topose himself and not let Cody’s words get to him earlier, but upon


    hearing those words, Vale almost lost his sanity.


    Vale let out an angered roar and rushed forward again!
