Chapter 2283

Everyone was surprised.

Hayden was a senior in the Welkin Academy, the United Alliance’s deputy leader, and a powerhouse at

the Immortal Ascension’s Eight Stair.

He attacked with full strength and landed three palms on James, but James could still get back up and

walked toward Hayden.

“W-What’s James’ background? How is he so strong?”

“Wasn’t it rumored that the disciples recruited into our academy this time were leftovers? I heard the

Divinity Sect selected the powerful ones. So, how is James so powerful?”

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

Quintina was equally surprised by the scene.

She thought James would not be able to withstand three moves by Hayden. However, he proved her

wrong.

“Huff!” She took a deep breath.

‘Is this kid a freak? Or was he hiding his strength from the beginning?”

“Haha.”

On the distant mountain, Yoan could not help laughing out loud after watching the fight.

James made him proud and did not let him down. It was worth taking him to the Landolf family and the

Ancient Clan.

He looked at Jeffery with a smile.

At that moment, Jeffery’s face was gloomy and distorted from anger.

“Hmph.”

He snorted coldly, swung his sleeves, and turned to leave.

Yoan shouted, “You lost, Elder Waheed. You haven’t slapped yourself yet.”

Jeffery stopped abruptly and almost fell. However, he did not turn around and left.

The other elders looked at Yoan.

“Elder Yoan, you’re being so secretive. You recruited such a strong disciple but did not tell us about it.

You secretly recruited him and kept quiet about him.”

“I know, right? That’s unfair to the other elders. I think James should be able to choose his teacher.”

Many people were envious.

James was powerful.

He was already so impressive after just joining the Welkin Academy. In a few years, he would be

incredible.

Yoan caressed his white beard and replied with a smile, “The headmaster didn’t hold a competition in

the main hall. It isn’t my fault.”

At that moment, at the mountain foot of the United Alliance’s base, Hayden’s face darkened.

He did not expect James to only be slightly injured after he had used all of his strength to attack.

Moreover, James did not seem to have sustained any severe injuries. That meant James could easily

defeat him if they were to have a real fight.

James walked to Hayden and said smilingly, “You lost, Mr. Hayden.”

“I”

Hayden parted his lips but did not know what to say.

James casually waved his hand, and a powerful force swept forward, pulling Yitzchok to him.

“M-Mr. Hayden, save me…”

Yitzchok screamed in fear.

James casually threw him on the floor.

Yitzchok’s foot was broken, and he did not have time to treat it, so he was still unable to stand up.”

“Hand it over.” James lowered his head and looked at Yitzchok.

With a horrified expression, Yitzchok said, “I-I’ve already refined them.”

“What?”

Hearing this, James’ expression darkened.

He lifted his foot and stepped on Yitzchok’s other foot.

“Argh!!!” Yitzchok shouted again.

Hayden watched the scene lividly. He wanted to step forward and intervene but could not find any

reason to do so since he was already defeated.

James left Yitzchok on the ground, looked at Hayden standing nearby, and said, “Mr. Hayden, your turn

to apologize.”

Hayden lost, so he had nothing to say.

“Sorry,” He uttered an apology with difficulty.
