Chapter 327 - Presented the Evidence
The Genius Mage
After a long time, the second round of the competition finally ended. Audrey once again went down to inspect the potion.
Less than half of the people who had successfully refined it had done so. Audrey felt helpless. It was indeed very difficult for Spark City to nurture another advanced alchemist.
However, what made Audreyâs eyes light up was that Barbara and Ross had actually succeeded in refining it. Moreover, both of them were not bad. It seemed that the two of them had been studying very seriously recently.
Audrey silently gave the two of them an encouraging look before continuing down.
When she walked to the back, it was Eveâs seat. When she saw Audrey walking over, Eveâs expression became even uglier. She had actually failed to refine the potion this time.
âEve, eliminated!â Audrey said in a low voice as she was about to continue down.
At this moment, Eve suddenly pulled Audrey back and shouted, âIâm not convinced!â
Oh? Audrey sized her up with a meaningful look as if she wanted to see how thick-skinned she was to be able to say that she was not convinced when she had not even refined the potion.
âTell me, why are you not convinced?â Audrey sneered and asked meaningfully.
âItâs all because of you today. You disrupted me, which is why I didnât refine it. I request to refine it again,â Eve said righteously, her eyes inadvertently glancing at Barbara and Ross.
How did Audreyâs two roommates pass? A sinister glint flashed in her eyes. The hands hidden behind her back faintly released some combat aura.
âDo you know why you didnât succeed?â Audrey asked back.
âItâs all because of you!â Eve said unhappily as she glared fiercely at Audrey.
These words made Audrey find it laughable.
She stared at Eve with sarcasm, she said coldly, âYou didnât succeed because your heart wasnât calm. You only wanted to go against me and didnât focus on refining the potion. This is your problem. You only have one chance. If youâre not confident, you wonât be able to succeed.â
With that, Audrey gave Eve a meaningful glance and was about to leave.
As though Audrey had hit the nail on the head, Eve became even angrier. She shouted at Audrey sternly, âYouâre playing favorites! This trial isnât fair.â
âThere has to be evidence to frame someone.â Audreyâs eyes turned cold.
In such a situation, she did not want to be too calculative with Eve. As long as the trial could proceed smoothly, it would be fine. However, the other party was not willing to let her off. No matter how good Audrey was, she was already enraged at this moment.
Seeing Audrey being framed, Barbara and Ross could not sit still and immediately stepped forward to defend her.
âThatâs right. Audrey is fair and just. What right do you have to say that sheâs biased and malpractices!â
âYouâre clearly eliminated and taking revenge,â Barbara said unhappily.
Eve snorted coldly and swept a disdainful glance at the two of them. She said, âThe two of you are the evidence.â
Hearing this, Barbara and Ross looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they were friends with Audrey, they had nothing to do with the trial.
At this moment, Eve had already stepped forward and brought over the potions that the two of them had just refined. She raised her voice and said, âEveryone, look. These two bottles of potions are so turbid. Itâs obvious that they failed. However, Audrey allowed them to pass. Isnât this cheating for favoritism?â
âYou⦠how is this possible!â Ross and Barbara looked at the potion in shock. Even Audrey was stunned for a moment, but she immediately realized that the potion must have been tampered with.
âNow, what else do you have to say?â Eve smiled smugly. There was a hint of scheming in her eyes as she shouted arrogantly.
âYouâre framing me! The potion we refined was clearly successful,â Ross said angrily. If Barbara had not stopped her, she might have gone up and fought with Eve.
Eve snorted coldly and said, âWhat evidence do you have to say that Iâm framing you?â
Ross and Barbara were instantly speechless. They had suffered a belly full of silence and felt extremely wronged.
They could only place their hopes on Audrey. However, Audrey was also a victim. Eve wanted to use this matter to tarnish Audreyâs reputation.
âIndeed, thereâs no evidence.â Audreyâs eyes darkened. After thinking for a moment, the corners of her mouth curled into a confident smile. âBut the two of them are the best proof.â
âYouâre both involved in this matter. You canât keep your words.â Eve thought that she would win for sure. She spoke arrogantly and raised her chin, looking down on others.
The members of the Dragon Slaying Squad had also figured out what had happened. They rushed to Audreyâs back to help her.
âEve, donât slander people. Audrey would never do such a thing!â Klein said angrily.
Seeing Klein speaking up for Audrey, Eveâs jealousy became even more intense. How could Audrey become friends with all the members of the five big families so soon after she joined the Knights Legion? Why did everyone speak up for her?
âThen, ask her to show us the evidence.â
Klein frowned and looked at Audrey with a worried look.
There was no recording in the trial just now. How could there be any evidence?
For a moment, the two roommates and the members of the Dragon Slaying Squad fell into silence. They were very anxious, thinking about how to prove it.
