Chapter 2297Claus, who was standing beside them, gnashed his teeth in fury. Even if Jagoan did save Hailey’s life
before, she didn’t have to go that far. After all, Jagoan and Hailey weren’t close to each other, whereas
Hailey and Claus were childhood friends. Hence, Claus just couldn’t wrap his head around Hailey’s
actions.
Five minutes quickly passed, but no miracle happened.
Jagoan did not appear.
Chester let out a sigh, suddenly looking much older than before as he sat down on a stone bench.
Hailey’s eyes lost their sparkle, too, and her expression was filled with sorrow. Even Evangeline and
Zain were disheartened and felt sorry for Jagoan.
“All right, time’s up.” Quindon stood up and swept his gaze over the crowd.
He then announced, “I hereby announce that the competition begins now.”
However, as soon as he announced the commencement of the competition, a figure suddenly
appeared atop the bell tower.
“Jagoan has appeared!” someone shouted.
Everyone’s gaze immediately turned toward the bell tower. They saw Jagoan’s figure slowly appear
with no injuries or bloodstains on him, and he appeared to be in good shape.
“Jagoan!” Hailey couldn’t help but shout out in excitement at the sight of Jagoan.
She was so elated that tears of joy streamed down her cheeks.
Claus stood next to Hailey, trembling with anger as he clenched his fists tightly.Meanwhile, on the high platform, Santiago furrowed his brows slightly when he noticed his daughter’s
excitement. After all, he had no idea about what happened between Hailey and Jagoan.
“M-Mr. Chance is here!” Even Chester leaped in joy at the sight of Jagoan.
“Mr. Gunderson, why are you so excited? Even though he’s reached the top, it’ll be useless if he can’t
even pick up the hammer!” Lamar snickered, pouring cold water on the old man’s excitement.
However, Chester paid no heed to him. He didn’t care whether Jagoan would be able to ring the
Dragon Bell. All he wanted was for Jagoan to stay alive.
novelbin“It’s already pretty impressive for someone with the strength of Third Level Spirit Replicator to reach the
top. Whether he can pick up the hammer or ring the Dragon Bell is no longer important,” Chester
muttered.
Quindon was surprised to see Jagoan reach the top. He didn’t want to see the latter risk his life either
and proceeded to advise Chester, “Mr. Gunderson, ask Jagoan to come down and stop pushing himself
to his limits. Otherwise, he might lose his life!”
Chester nodded and was about to ask the man to come down. However, he then saw Jagoan wave his
hand, and the hammer that weighed tens of thousands of pounds flew from the ground to Jagoan’s
hand.
Jagoan held the hammer in his hand, looking relaxed and without any strain.
The sight shocked everyone present as they widened their eyes in disbelief at the man. Even Quindon
was surprised as he fixed his gaze on Jagoan as if he had just witnessed something horrifying.
Meanwhile, Jagoan toyed with the hammer and tossed it into the air before catching it again without
much effort, repeating the process several times.His actions left everyone dumbfounded.
Just moments ago, some people were claiming that Jagoan would never be able to lift the hammer.
However, not only did he lift it, but he was also fiddling with it like it was a toy. Needless to say,
everyone who looked down upon him was humiliated and frustrated.
Sigwin stared at Jagoan, who was casually playing with the hammer, and began to doubt everything he
ever believed in.
He couldn’t fathom how a Third Level Spirit Replicator like Jagoan managed to pull off something like
that. As a matter of fact, Sigwin wasn’t the only one who was confused.
Everyone else was having trouble believing what they saw, too.
Of course, Jagoan was oblivious to what was on their minds. The hammer felt light in his hands, and he
was merely throwing it around to test its weight. Then, he turned to eye the Dragon Bell in front of him.
He casually swung the hammer and struck the bell.
