No 1 Supreme Warrior

“Rudeus’ behavior in arranging things this way is because he doesn’t want Hestia to be humiliated. If everyone participates so brazenly like you are, won’t it show the other two continents that our alchemists are all so bad?!”

Hearing that, Jack raised an eyebrow as he said loudly, “Stop looking for excuses, I won’t be convinced just like that. You keep on saying you don’t want Hestia to be humiliated, but what you’re doing will only embarrass us even more. There are so many alchemists here. Is it that hard to pick out a few seventh-grade alchemists? The fact that the seventh-grade alchemists are all unwilling to step up is purely because they’d be humiliated by Rudeus if they didn’t satisfy him.”

“Who’d want to step up just to be berated? You’re stopping others from taking part and humiliating our continent even more! In your eyes, sixth-grade alchemists are nothing, but what about seventh-grade alchemists?! Surely it won’t be hard to pick out a few seventh-grade alchemists when there are over ten thousand of them here! Why can’t we even pick out ten? Simply put, no one wants to be scolded!”

“The standards you uphold are hilarious. As long as they have a seventh-grade alchemist badge, they won’t be mocked when they enter. After all, the badge doesn’t explicitly say how skilled a person is. Even if the alchemists from the other continents are skilled, there’s no way there will be a lot of eighth-grade alchemists. After all, there’s an age restriction!”
