As for Adrian and Gloria, although they had been mentally prepared for this to happen, they still could not help but be disappointed with the result. However, they still both went forward and extended their congratulations to Rocky.
The moment Elder Leticia saw Adrian, her expression instantly became sour. Although she knew that he was a domineering leader, she did not fear him at all.
Knowing that Elder Leticia was staring at him coldly, Adrian behaved more overbearing as if he was superior to others.
On the surface, there wasn't really a dispute between the Flower Fief and the Genie Fief. However, after the recent events, especially involving the engagement of the three Godly Geniuses, the tension between them was secretly growing stronger.
