Chapter 2613 Work Harder

Chapter 2613 Work Harder“It seems that you're enjoying quite a comfortable life here at Emerald Cauldron Sect,” Jared uttered
with a casual smile.
“Stop joking, Mr. Chance. These outer circle disciples are all seeking shortcuts, hoping to use my
connections to pass the assessment and become official disciples. But the sect founders have set strict
rules, and as the principal disciple, I can't change them. To enter the inner court, they'll have to improve
their capabilities and pass the assessment,” Sigurd said with an awkward grin.
“If you can't assist them, why do those female disciples from the outer circle still allow you to fool
around with them?” Jared asked in confusion. Why would they throw themselves at him if he couldn't
bend rules for them?
“Well, their effort is not in vain. Though they might not make it into the inner court, I still have some say
in allocating certain resources, which I can distribute to them,” Sigurd immediately explained.
Jared smiled and did not say anything further. He followed him for about ten minutes, passing through
another mountain gate, which led them to the inner court of Emerald Cauldron Sect. The buildings here
were noticeably more magnificent than those outside.
There were disciples guarding the inner gate, preventing the disciples from the outer circle from
trespassing.
Sigurd led Jared almost to the top of the mountain and then stopped. He pointed to the building at the
mountaintop and said, “That's where my master and Mr. Erdell reside and cultivate. My residence is
below theirs.” Sigurd led Jared to his opulent residence. Being an esteemed disciple of the inner circle, he had
dedicated attendants catering to his every need.

“Mr. Chance, you can rest here for now while I arrange the assessment. However, I advise you not to
wander around in my absence to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles,” Sigurd advised.
“If you feel bored, I can call a few female disciples over to keep you company. They're all gorgeous and
have great figures.”
To Sigurd, it seemed that no man could resist the allure of a woman, as he believed that all men were
inherently drawn to the opposite sex.
“That won't be necessary. Please focus on arranging the assessment for me. I don't feel comfortable
staying here for long. I'd rather return to the foot of the mountain.” Jared expressed his desire to leave
and spend time with Ghaylen instead.
The buildings in the inner court were lavishly decorated, but Jared did not enjoy the atmosphere. All the
disciples, especially Sigurd's attendants, appeared as emotionless as robots.
“Please wait here, Mr. Chance. I'll immediately inform Mr. Erdell about the assessment. He's
responsible for the inner court's assessment,” Sigurd said before leaving with quick steps.
Jared remained cautious instead of roaming around, as he did not want to draw unnecessary attention.
After all, he did not intend to join Emerald Cauldron Sect in the first place. Sigurd hurried to the mountaintop and approached one of the buildings. He called out loudly, “Mr.
Erdell, it's me Sigurd. I wish to talk to you.”
“Come in!” an elderly man responded.
novelbinSigurd entered the room, bowed to Ebenez, and said, “Mr. Erdell, someone wants to join Emerald
Cauldron Sect. He hopes to enter the inner court, so he would like to be assessed.”
“It's getting late. We can talk about it tomorrow.” Ebenez waved his hand to dismiss him. “Sigurd, did
you just return from the foot of the mountain?”
Sigurd nodded. “Yes, I just returned from the foot of the mountain!”
“Then did you witness the sudden appearance of the Spirit Cloud at Ghaylen's place?”
“Yes, I did. The Spirit Cloud was remarkably beautiful. Someone must have made a high-level pill.”
“I share the same sentiment. I can't believe Ghaylen's alchemy skills have improved so much. You guys
should also work harder. Don't spend your time and energy on women. I suppose you've had your way
with most of the female disciples in the outer circle, huh?” Ebenez's face suddenly turned cold.
