"Have you finished?"
Scarlett Jennings looked at Cedric Wilder in front of her, her face not showing the dissatisfaction of her companions nearby, but remained relatively indifferent.
Cedric Wilder, however, was oblivious and continued talking to himself,
"And one last thing, you should be able to tell that my skills are much stronger than that phony you were partnered with in the previous show, that Amber Livingston, right? It’s always these people pretending to be mysterious that ruin the reputation of our Mystical Sect~
Next time if there’s such a program again, you could recommend me as your partner. I’m also quite interested in trying out the life of a celebrity..."
Seeing him babble on endlessly, Scarlett Jennings simply took out her phone and made a call.
Cedric Wilder, curious, asked, "What are you doing?"
Scarlett shot him a glance and said directly, "Calling the Capital Security Bureau to report a Master using Immortal Family against ordinary people."
She paused and glanced at a family of three not far away, "The demon energy around that person’s ankle is the evidence."
Nearby, Ashton Todd and a few others’ eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes!
Why didn’t they think of that?!
A method to make the opponent regret without lifting a finger!
Cedric Wilder, on the other hand, was completely dumbfounded, "No way, you’re going to report me? Just for such a small matter?!"
"Rest assured, the academy rules state that participants in the competition are not allowed to duel privately, or their participation qualification will be revoked.
This little matter of yours will at most result in a verbal warning from the Security Bureau and a deduction of some Spiritual Points, it won’t affect the competition."
Cedric Wilder didn’t feel relieved at all upon hearing this, because losing Spiritual Points was even more brutal to him than losing college credits!
The Immortal Family he worships is particularly picky, many items must be purchased with points in Spiritual Affairs.
"Scarlett, let’s talk this out...we’re all classmates..."
"I don’t like gossipy classmates," Scarlett said coldly, "especially those who keep gossiping about people around me."
"Just for that?!"
Cedric Wilder looked incredulous, but seeing Scarlett Jennings’ serious expression, he immediately backed down,
"I apologize, I apologize, all right?"
He reluctantly apologized, finally dropping the previously arrogant tone and left hurriedly with his luggage in tow.
Afraid that if he left any later, Scarlett Jennings would really report him.
Seeing the person had run away, Scarlett Jennings finally put away her phone.
Ashton Todd and Stella Gibson nearby looked a bit disappointed,
"Scarlett, you’re not going to call?"
Report him!
Deduct his points!
Scarlett glanced at the two and said nothing, but the two teachers spoke up,
"Tomorrow is the big competition, less is more."
Scarlett originally just intended to scare him a bit.
After all, they all belong to the Mystical Sect, and no one can guarantee they won’t overstep boundaries occasionally.
Most of the time, as long as it doesn’t involve harming people with Evil Techniques, everyone silently understands.
Cedric, though gossipy, was trying to help that girl avoid being entangled by that family at the time, with no ill intentions.
Moreover, Scarlett had previously read that girl’s fortune.
If she hadn’t left in time then, but was entangled by that family.
She might’ve stubbornly confronted them out of anger, and after a quarrel, the girl’s father might’ve even gotten physical with her.
In the end, even though the opposing party would receive due punishment, the person being hit would still suffer a considerable psychological shadow.
Thus, avoiding confrontation in such situations is wise if you cannot handle it.
Because you never know whether you’re dealing with a lunatic.
Ashton Todd and Stella also understood the situation, they simply couldn’t stand Cedric looking so smug.
And wondered where his sense of superiority came from.
As they talked, Nathan White suddenly piped up in a small voice,
"I hate him."
