Noel glanced at Zayn and scoffed lightly, though he understood why Zayn’s face seemed to have frozen. Zayn’s disbelief was also the representation of his inability to believe in what was happening. Noel took a deep breath and slowly said, “No wonder that guy could talk to me in such a way. It turns out that I’ve bumped into an exceptional genius, after all.”
Zayn was unable to contain his surprise. “Who’s this person? Which newly recruited informal disciple is he?”
Noel frowned as he spoke, “You might not know who it is if it was just some random person, but I’m sure you’ve heard of him. He’s Fane, the person who agreed to fight Wesley on the wager battle arena.”
The fight between Wesley and a newly recruited informal disciple spread like wildfire among the informal disciples, and this was treated like gossip. After all, nobody thought that Fane would be able to defeat Wesley—it was impossible. What Wesley did was despicable, but he did not seem to be fazed, seeing as he had a strong background.
On top of that, the fact that Fane had an individual room was a cause for jealousy. Even if Wesley did not come forward to do this, there would be other disciples fighting against Fane for the room.
Noel also had the same thoughts in the past, but he had already denied these ideas. “It looks like Wesley is going to suffer this time. This young man is no regular man.”
Zayn nodded in agreement and commented, “That’s true. Shall we inform Wesley about this and ask him to be careful? After all, the martial art techniques and martial skills of the soul attribute are mysterious and unpredictable. Normal people will get hurt easily if they aren’t prepared.”
Noel frowned. He knew that if he informed Wesley about this news, he was doing Wesley a favor. Unfortunately, that would also mean offending Fane at the same time. Offending a newly recruited informal disciple was nothing in the past but Fane was not a normal new recruit. The others might not know this, but he was able to see this.
Thinking things through, Noel shook his head decisively. “We can’t allow this news to spread. Even if others learn about Fane’s talents, it can’t be coming from the both of us.”
