Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1137

At Mike's words, Lexie argued with a righteous tone, "What does that mean? There's no gender hierarchy in our community. Someone might use your statement against Skylar and say he won over her because he was physically stronger."

Immediately after that, she heard Maya yelling furiously at Skylar, "You may have beaten me in physical combat, but when it comes to talismanic arts and overall abilities, I'm far superior to you!"

Mike and Lexie were speechless; the latter was on point.

Maya was undeniably spiteful. Faced with Skylar's silence, she shouted, "Sir Rutherford acknowledged my talent! If you were really better than me, why did he let you run away to Seastone and choose to nurture me instead?

"Why am I the one who knows how to use a fire thunder talisman while you don't? Face it, Skylar. You were never meant to win!"

By then, nobody was thinking about the issue of dividing the ghost bottles. The mystic arts community watching the livestream couldn't help but feel empathetic for Skylar after Maya's words.

The affairs of the Rutherford family had been heard about to some extent in the mystic arts community.

Warren had focused on cultivating a child from the branch families while neglecting his own son. While many couldn't understand that, a few aware of the inside story sighed with pity.

After all, Maya was indeed talented, but Skylar wasn't inferior either.

His baritone voice uttered, "But that isn't the only teaching from our family."

With that, he fished out a white talisman.

Skylar ignored her and began activating his talisman. "With all laws reduced to glazes and with my divine power…"

Upon confirming that Skylar was serious, Maya, disregarding the pain in her shoulder, gritted her teeth and took out her last fire thunder talisman.

Everyone at the scene gaped in silence. Not even Shannon's team had expected Skylar to have such a remarkable ice talisman on him.

Maya was the most flustered of all. She collapsed onto the ground, her face paling from the cold, yet her lips still muttered defiantly, refusing to yield. "Impossible… That's impossible…"

"There's nothing impossible about this." Skylar's voice was as cold as his talisman. "You're not the only gifted one in this world."

"Even so… You still can't use… a fire thunder talisman!" Due to the cold, Maya's voice trembled, but her eyes still gleamed with mocking defiance.

His hands slowly formed into fists. He was about to speak when Shannon's faint voice pierced the air.

"You've been showing off about knowing how to use a fire thunder talisman since earlier… It's just a talisman—what's so hard about learning it?"

Then, Shannon lifted her hand and began drawing something in the air…
