Legend of Wyatt -
Chapter 69 Generous Rewards
Chapter 69: Chapter 69 Generous Rewards
Rayan Lee’s voice was loud.
Suddenly, all the young geniuses from the small families resentfully glared at Rayan Lee.
"Why, not convinced? If not, I welcome you to challenge me when the party starts!"
Rayan Lee ignored their angry stares.
Seeing this, Wyatt Barnes was left speechless.
This Rayan Lee really thinks that he’s invincible...
From a distance, Maximus Lee watched this play out with a face full of disdain.
"Barbarian!"
He muttered under his breath so that only he could hear himself.
"Since everyone is curious, let me explain..."
With Remi Sinclair’s words, the gazes of all the youngsters in the audience were on him.
Wyatt Barnes was no exception.
He came to this "Talented Youths Gathering" not for the fame of the Hidden Dragon List, which interested him not the slightest.
What he cared about were the tangible rewards!
"After deliberation by the chiefs of our three major clans, the first place of this Hidden Dragon List will receive three sets of Profound Level high-grade martial techniques, ten ’Ascension Pills,’ ten ’Grade Eight Golden Healing Pills,’ three 300-year-old Blood Spirit Mushrooms, and three hundred thousand bank checks."
Remi Sinclair spoke out the rewards for first place in the Hidden Dragon List.
On the observation platform, sounds of inhaling cold air in shock were heard.
This edition’s awards are a leap better than the previous one...
"Seems pretty good."
Wyatt narrowed his eyes, and a flash of greed flickered past.
Three sets of Profound Level high-grade martial techniques, no matter where they were from, were pricey commodities.
Ascension Pills were pillars used by Condensed Pill Realm martial artists to enhance their cultivation, and were extremely precious.
Grade Eight Golden Healing Pills, even the Lee Family in Clearwind Town only had two of them initially. After using one on Wyatt Barnes, they were left with one, indicating their rarity.
Three 300-year-old Blood Spirit Mushrooms that could significantly enhance one’s defensive martial skills.
Three hundred thousand bank checks were even more practical.
"They are good, but you need to be capable of getting them in the first place."
Jovie Lee remarked.
"Jovie, if I can rank first on this Hidden Dragon List, will you be my wife?"
Wyatt grinned mischievously.
"Let’s talk when you really rank first."
Jovie Lee dismissed him casually.
Although Wyatt’s strength was strange,
in Jovie’s perspective, he was only slightly stronger than Rayan Lee at best. He might not even be as strong as Amos Lynch from the Lynch Clan, let alone Remi Sinclair from the Sinclair Clan.
Of course, she was certain that Wyatt would surpass Amos Lynch and Remi Sinclair in the future.
After all, Wyatt was only sixteen this year.
Compared to both Amos Lynch and Remi Sinclair, he was two years younger.
If it were the Hidden Dragon List ranking next year, she believed Wyatt could rank first.
For this year, she didn’t believe Wyatt would do well.
"So I’ll take that as an agreement."
Wyatt Barnes laughed.
His fiery gaze once again fell upon Jovie’s seductive figure, and a heat flared up in his lower abdomen.
Such a tempting little vixen...
"Don’t you think this is a bit unfair?"
Jovie Lee’s eyes gleamed with a cunning smile.
"Then how should it be fair?"
Wyatt asked.
"If you can’t rank first on the Hidden Dragon List, regardless of your ranking, all your rewards belong to me."
Jovie blinked her eyes, her face daring him to agree.
"Jovie, you’re just too greedy. If I marry you, I won’t have to worry about being taken advantage of... alright, I agree."
Wyatt laughed, shaking his head.
Upon hearing Wyatt’s agreement, the smile on Jovie’s face instantly froze.
This money-loving guy, he actually agreed?
Could it be... he’s really that confident?
Or, perhaps...
He still has some hidden strength?
At this moment, Jovie couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret rising in her heart.
"Jovie, you’re not going back on your words, are you?"
Seeing Jovie’s uneasy expression, Wyatt asked cautiously.
"Humph! Wait until you really rank first in the Hidden Dragon List."
Jovie humphed, feigning indifference.
At this moment, there was a slightly relaxed atmosphere on the observation platform among the group of young talents.
"Mr. Sinclair, what are the rewards for the other two people who rank in the top three of the Hidden Dragon List?"
Someone asked.
"The people who rank second and third in this Hidden Dragon List can get two sets of Profound Level high-grade Martial Techniques, five Ascension Pills, five Grade Eight Golden Healing Pills, two 300-year-old Blood Spirit Mushrooms, and two hundred thousand USD."
Remi Sinclair continued.
Although the rewards for second and third places were significantly less than those for first place,
for most people present, they were equally tempting...
"As for the other seven young talents who made it onto the Hidden Dragon List, they will receive one set of Profound Level high-grade Martial Techniques, three Ascension Pills, three Grade Eight Golden Healing Pills, one 300-year-old Blood Spirit Mushroom, and a hundred thousand USD."
Remi Sinclair continued.
On the observation platform, the atmosphere was filled with a fighting spirit.
As long as one makes it onto the Hidden Dragon List, they not only become well-known throughout Aurora City, but they also receive such generous rewards...
Everyone was itching for the competition.
"Now, the gathering begins."
Remi Sinclair declared and retreated into the innermost gazebo of the observation tower, shoulder to shoulder with his younger sister, Helen Sinclair.
"Brother, you’re bound to be the first place in this Hidden Dragon List, unless something unexpected happens."
Helen gave a light smile, soft like a lonely orchid in the valley.
"If it were a month ago, I would be certain that there would be no surprises... But now, there are unpredictable factors."
Remi Sinclair shook his head.
His gaze fell directly on a young man in purple from afar.
"Who is that?"
Helen glanced over, too.
"Wyatt Barnes!"
Remi’s eyes narrowed, sensing the rising challenge in him.
"Wyatt Barnes? The one who ranked second at the Lee Family tournament? He’s just a ninth-tier Body Tempering Realm martial artist. Rumor has it that with his cultivation, he can exert the strength of three ancient giant elephants... Brother, don’t you find that a bit exaggerated?"
Helen analyzed.
"Helen, where there is smoke, there is fire... Besides, so many people from the Lee Family witnessed it. How could it be a lie? Moreover, you should understand my intuition; it never goes wrong..."
"Remi Sinclair spoke slowly.
"Brother, could it be..."
A look of surprise emerged on Helen Sinclair’s exceedingly beautiful face.
She was more than familiar with her twin brother’s ’intuition’, a seemingly inherent gift they received at birth.
From their childhood to adulthood, his intuition had never been wrong.
"Indeed. My intuition tells me he’s dangerous, even Amos Lynch pales in comparison to him."
Remi Sinclair nodded in agreement.
"But...he only seems to be sixteen years old."
A blush crept onto Helen’s face as her breath hitched slightly.
"What difference does it make if he’s only sixteen? There have been many young teenage prodigies in the history of our Crimson Heaven Kingdom who stepped into the Condensed Pill Realm at the age of sixteen. It’s not at all surprising that an odd species like Wyatt Barnes exists," Remi Sinclair said.
"Brother Remi, didn’t Wyatt Barnes lose to Rayan Lee in the Lee Family’s Martial Arts Conference?"
Standing next to Helen, Melody Sinclair couldn’t help but interject.
"I’ve heard about that too."
Helen Sinclair nodded.
"Lost to Rayan Lee? Who told you that...he surrendered himself," Remi Sinclair mildly shook his head, seemingly well aware of the happenings of the Lee Family’s Martial Arts Conference.
"If he could defeat Rayan Lee, why would he surrender?"
Melody Sinclair seemed a bit reluctant to believe it.
"Melody, I ask you...how would it be if a foreign clansmen from our branch clan ranked first in our Sinclair Family’s Martial Arts Conference?"
Instead of answering Melody Sinclair directly, Remi Sinclair posed a question.
"Brother, are you suggesting that someone made Wyatt Barnes surrender?"
Helen Sinclair quickly understood.
"That’s my speculation."
Remi Sinclair nodded.
"Brother Remi, everything you said is just your speculation."
Melody Sinclair was still somewhat doubtful.
In her life, in the Martial Dao, she only looked up to one person, and that was Remi Sinclair.
Remi Sinclair was a figure she couldn’t hope to reach.
And now, Remi Sinclair was saying someone else might surpass him, moreover a sixteen-year-old boy. It was hard for her to accept.
"Melody, whether my speculations are accurate, you will find out soon enough."
Remi Sinclair lightly shook his head, not arguing with Melody.
At present, on the Star Observation Platform, a youthful prodigy from a minor clan was impressively winning three consecutive battles.
"Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge me?"
The young boy looked around and slowly asked.
"Me!"
A Sinclair youth flew out, confronting the boy.
Soon, both of them made their moves.
But after one mere confrontation,
the Sinclair youth defeated the boy.
"Much obliged."
The Sinclair youth cupped his hands.
"This Charm Sinclair, who was ranked fifth in the Sinclair Family Martial Arts Conference a month ago... meaning, among the five young Sinclair prodigies here today, he’s the weakest."
"As expected, being from a prominent clan, even the weakest one is so strong!"
"Seems like I have no chance of securing a place on the Hidden Dragon List."
"Being able to witness the competition among the talented youth of the three major clans is also a good return."
...
Some of the young talents from minor clans seemed a bit dispirited.
However, there were some young talents from minor clans, full of battle spirit, who stepped forward to challenge Charm Sinclair.
Soon, Charm defeated another three challengers.
"Charm Sinclair is quite strong, not worse than Sevyn Lee."
Jovie Lee chuckled.
"He’s alright."
Wyatt Barnes yawned.
"Did you not sleep well last night?"
Jovie Lee looked surprised.
"Naturally one doesn’t sleep well without a wife to hold."
Wyatt Barnes teased with a mischievous smile.
"Pervert!"
Jovie Lee glared at Wyatt Barnes.
While they were conversing, Charm Sinclair had already defeated another challenger.
"Is there anyone else wanting to fight with me?"
Charm Sinclair asked politely.
"I will!"
A voice sounded from a pavilion on the Star Observation Platform.
A sturdy teenager around eighteen years old in a blue robe walked out.
He had a stout figure and an honest appearance. If one were to judge based on his looks, he seemed like a very straightforward person.
However, if one looked carefully, it’s easy to see
The twinkling eyes of the teenager shone brightly, sometimes flickering with a cunning light.
"May I know your name, brother?"
Charm Sinclair asked with a smile.
"Westyn Morgan."
The teenager blinked his eyes and replied.
"Westyn Morgan, I’m looking forward to our match."
Charm Sinclair readied his stance.
"Eh."
Wyatt Barnes originally seemed somewhat sleepy, but his eyes brightened after spotting Westyn Morgan.
"What’s different about this Westyn Morgan?"
Noticing Wyatt Barnes’s sudden change, Jovie Lee curiously asked.
"Interesting, interesting... Charm Sinclair is going to lose."
Wyatt Barnes smiled.
"What did you see?"
Jovie Lee pressed.
"Call me Brother Leandro, and I’ll tell you."
"No way! You wish... You crook! Stinky pervert!"
