The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell

Chapter 285

The bell rang, and the elder arrived, which meant the competition was about to begin soon.

Caspian turned to Jessica and said, “The competition is about to start.

However, I need to meet a few friends of mine before that as I’ve received favors from them, and I didn’t get the chance to thank them yet.”

“Go ahead and do your thing.

We’ll be here and cheer for you.” Jessica nodded and smiled. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Then, Jessica tugged at Lucy, and she also grinned at Caspian, saying, “Good luck, idiot Casper!”

Caspian waved his hands and walked toward the direction of the arena.

Once Caspian left, Lucy leaned closer to Jessica and asked, “Lady Jessica, aren’t you planning on telling Casper about that?”

“What’s that?” Jessica glanced at Lucy.

“The gorgeous lady, Maisie Pine!” As Lucy exclaimed, she gestured at her chest exaggeratedly.

“It’s unexpected that Master Chloe is a friend of Maisie‘s Master, and you’re here to pass a letter to her.

That Maisie’s really beautiful and gentle.

Besides, you know that when we were still in Evergreen Town, Maisie had always been taking special care of Casper.

Do you think… Do you think that…”

“What am I thinking?” Jessica knocked on Lucy’s head meanly, “You should address her as Lady Maisie.

It’s disrespectful to directly address her by her name only when you don’t even know her.”

“Alright, alright.

Lady Maisie with the big bosom.

Lady Jessica, aren’t you afraid that she will snatch the idiot Casper?” Lucy covered her head and asked.

Jessica looked down, then she smiled.

“I’m not.”

“What?” Lucy stared at Jessica in confusion.

Jessica’s gaze was calm and confident, and it did not seem as if she faked it.

“Why?” Lucy asked as she was puzzled.

However, Jessica did not say much.

“You’re just a child, so why are you asking so many questions? You won’t understand! Stop asking me anymore!”

Although her tone was stern, Jessica smiled sweetly.

After all, Jessica and Caspian made progress and went through life and death together.

All of those events left a deep mark in their hearts.

Moreover, Jessica believed that it would not have faded just because Caspian would meet more people and experience more things.

At that time, Caspian saw Xander, Omar, Maya, and Benedict nearby the arena.

Among the top ten spiritual apprentice list disciples, those four seemed to have the best relationship.

Each time they came over, they would walk in and out together.

The ranking of the spiritual apprentice list last time was also rather coincidental.

As Maya was eliminated by Caspian, and Caspian could not continue the match as he passed out so he was ranked tenth.

In the end, Benedict finally advanced a spot and was ranked third.

The other two tanks were unchanged, showing their powerful and stable strength.

In other words, Xander still ranked first in the previous competition, Omar remained in second place, and Benedict was third.

Although Maya was not in the top ten, her strength was beyond doubt.

With the presence of the newly-ranked tenth Caspian, the five of them stood together, forming a small group and becoming the most eye-catching spot in the whole scene.

When Caspian met Xander and the rest, he first expressed his gratitude toward Xander and Benedict for their help the last time.

After that, everyone was puzzled as to why Caspian was only there at that time.

Then, they noticed Caspian’s motion and glanced in Jessica’s direction, and all of them suddenly showed knowing smiles.

“This time, I’ll re-enter the top ten.

Well, as long as I don’t meet the few of you first,” Maya uttered.

After the battle in Darley Valley, her temperament was greatly trained.

For cultivators, there were times their strength became stagnant not because of insufficient training but their nature could not break through an inevitable hurdle.

However, as long as they went through it, their future would be smooth, and they could make a giant leap forward.

It was obvious that Maya jumped over the hurdle in front of her.

“However, there are many people this time,” Omar could not help but comment when he saw the crowd.

“We’ll have to ask Casper about this.” Maya smiled and explained the reason after that.

In that instant, everyone realized what happened, but they did not mind it.

After all, there were only a handful of unbelievable talents like Caspian in the Heavenly Stars Sect’s history.

Hence, those disciples that joined the competition just for fame were doomed for failure.

“I remembered that there were about four thousand disciples in the previous competition, and I think it‘s about seven thousand today… ” Benedict estimated.

Later, everyone went to take their jade plate to join the competition, and they found out that Benedict underestimated the number.

That time, there were more than 9000 participants, and it was close to 10000!

There were about 15000 apprentices in the Heavenly Stars Sect, and at that time, more than 60% of them paid their spirit stones just to join the competition.

It could be seen how impactful and inspirational Caspian’s action was last time.

Caspian laughed wryly.

“Previously, we only needed to win two rounds to enter the top one thousand and for our names to be qualified to be in the spiritual apprentice list.

It seems that we need at least four matches this time.”

“The two extra matches will be just a little extra effort.” Xander’s tone was as overbearing as his strength.

The way of grouping was the same as the last time, and they were still divided into ten groups, each with a thousand people.

Caspian and others, who ranked in the top ten last time, were divided into different groups.

During the grouping process, Maya was the most nervous.

After all, her strength belonged in the top ten, but she was not ranked in the top ten last time.

Thus, she might meet Caspian and the rest if she were unlucky.

If that happened, there would only be grievances left, no matter who won or lost.

Thankfully, luck was on Maya’s side this time.

The strongest disciple in her group was probably the one ranked eighth in the previous competition.

The disciple also realized the formidable Maya with the Flame Phoenix Physique was in the same group as him, and he was on the verge of tears.

His expression was a complete contrast from Maya’s delighted look.

After they were grouped, Caspian walked toward the stands and sat beside Jessica, and he explained to her the rules of the competition as they waited for the matches to start.

Since the others knew that Caspian had a beautiful woman with him, they did not come to bother them.

When Lucy noticed the beautiful Maya, who had a unique temperament, Lucy treated Maya as if she was Jessica‘s rival in love, especially when Maya was even chatting happily with Casper before.

Thus, Lucy glared at Maya from afar, causing Maya to feel uncomfortable among the crowd, and she felt a chill down her spine.

Soon, the first match started.

Caspian informed Jessica briefly about it and went into the ring.

Even though Caspian did not know the disciple before him, the guy’s words made him frown.

“So you’re the disrespectful and deceitful Casper Montgomery? I’m going to expose your true colors in front of everyone and show the world your ruthless tongue!” The disciple sounded righteous, and he glowed with the light of justice.

“You can go down now.” Caspian snorted.

Then, he used the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows.

Before the disciple could even finish his words, Caspian knocked him down with a slap.

Next, Caspian grabbed the guy by the collar and tossed him off the stage.
