Chapter 2296

Chapter 2296Jagoan could feel the draconic essence entering his body. He hurriedly sat cross-legged, attempting to
merge the two essences together.
Soon, the two draconic essences combined, and a dazzling light erupted from Jagoan’s chest.
Immediately, the Power of Dragons surged in Jagoan uncontrollably like wild horses being released
into the wilderness. The powerful energy was about to break through his body and shoot straight into
the clouds.
Seeing that, Jagoan quickly used his Focus Technique. He started refining the Power of Dragons to
augment his cultivation level.
Meanwhile, the people outside the bell tower were growing impatient.
“It’s been one hour now. I don’t see Jagoan reaching the top of the bell tower yet. Is he dead in the
passage?”
“He’s only a Third Level Spirit Replicator. I can’t believe that he has the courage to try it. Does he have
a death wish?”
“He’s from the mundane world, after all. How do you expect him to understand the dangers in our
secret realms?”
The crowd started chattering among themselves, assuming that Jagoan was already dead inside. It
had been more than an hour since his disappearance.
“Ha! He has overestimated himself and lost his life there!” Claus sneered.
At the side, Hailey shot Claus a glare before shifting her attention to the bell tower anxiously. Deep
down, she was worried about Jagoan’s safety.I should’ve stopped Jagoan from taking the risk earlier!
Claus noticed the concerned look on Hailey’s face. Seeing that, he harbored greater hatred toward
Jagoan.
“Chester, is this the person you’ve brought with you? Gate of Fire has lost a participant before the
competition even started! If we lose this time, the Gunderson family shall bear all the cost. Zahrin Sect
will not take any responsibility!” Lamar spoke furiously to Chester.
They belonged to the Gate of Fire, after all. It was the rule to have one participant from one secret
realm. With Jagoan’s absence, they were being put in a disadvantageous position for not having a
contestant from the Gate of Fire.
Chester stayed silent, staring at the bell tower nervously. He was exceedingly worried about Jagoan’s
disappearance too.
“Mr. Yuchamore, I think Jagoan’s dead inside. Let’s commence the competition and stop waiting,”
Angus said.
novelbinEveryone refused to wait any longer. Besides, Sigwin had embarrassed Violet Fulmina Sect that day,
and the gang could not wait to restore their reputation.
Quindon glanced at the bell tower before turning to Chester to say, “Old Mr. Gunderson, it’s been more
than one hour. I’ll start the competition now without waiting for him.”
“Mr. Yuchamore, please wait for a while more. I believe that Mr. Chance will reach the top!” Chester
implored.
“Old Mr. Gunderson, so what if he manages to make it to the top? He would be badly injured by then.
I’m afraid that he wouldn’t even be able to lift up the hammer to ring the Dragon Bell. Let’s not wastetime anymore. Everyone is waiting for the competition to start!” Sigwin uttered in annoyance.
Getting humiliated earlier that day, the upset Sigwin seized that perfect opportunity to vent his anger on
Chester.
However, Chester paid no heed to him and looked at Quindon instead. “Mr. Yuchamore, please wait for
a while more.”
Chester was well aware that Quindon was the only one who could decide when the competition would
start.
Glancing at Chester, Quindon nodded in response. “All right. I’ll wait for five more minutes before
starting the competition.”
Hearing Quindon’s words, nobody dared to utter a word and waited. There was nothing else Chester
could do at that moment other than pray silently for Jagoan to appear soon.
“Jagoan, please show yourself! You’ll be fine!” Meanwhile, Hailey clenched her fists, praying for Jagoan
too.
