"Excuse me? When did I say I wanted to challenge him as a silver-grade evolution master?"
"!!!"
When Auric said those words, all of them fell silent for a few seconds, processing what he had just said. Katarina, Ellia, and Vera already knew, so they looked relaxed.
Maya and Supervisor Jacob were the most excited about it, considering this was an opportunity to strike at their opponent.
"What did he say?"
"He didn't want to challenge him as a silver-grade evolution master?"
"If that's the case, does he want to challenge him as a bronze-grade evolution master?"
"No way, right? But if that's not the case, doesn't that mean…"
"Is he… a gold-grade evolution master?"
Someone finally said something they didn't want to admit.
They gulped nervously.
"No way, right? He's already abnormal enough to become a silver-grade evolution master at 17. No way he's a gold-grade evolution master at 17, right?"
"Right?"
