Chapter 506 Five-colored Magic Jade

Everyone's eyes followed Zachary as soon as he showed up. Miles, in particular, glared at him with obvious hostility. He knew that if Zachary were to also choose the Xiao Clan, the two of them would need to engage in an intense battle to prove that one was more suited to join than the other.

"Um, here's the thing..." Tracy looked at Zachary, thinking that he was confused about what had just happened.

Before she could say anything, though, Zachary spoke up. "I already know." He turned and met Miles's gaze. "Miles, you are my senior. Naturally and logically, I should let you join the Xiao Clan. Unfortunately, I'm also very interested in the Xiao Clan. I haven't made the final decision yet, but chances are it may disappoint you."

His claim left the crowd buzzing with suspense, as it only meant one thing—if Miles wanted to be part of the Xiao Clan, he must defeat him.

Jaxon smiled shrewdly at Zachary's declaration. Thanks to Marvin who had made a wise decision just now, he now had an opportunity to recruit such an extraordinary talent rarely seen in the Devil Kingdom, or even in the whole Supernal Continent.

Marvin smiled. He indeed made the right decision.

Of course, others weren't as enthusiastic. Holy Phoenix's delicate face froze in astonishment. She hadn't expected Zachary to consider the Xiao Clan over their Phoenix Pavilion.

"Damn it! Did the Xiao Clan offer him any benefits in advance?" Holy Phoenix said as her beautiful eyes narrowed.

"Take it easy, Master Holy Phoenix. He hasn't made his final decision yet, after all," Riley said reassuringly.

"He has already made clear of his intentions." Holy Phoenix's eyes darkened.

"Even if he goes through with his plans, Harley has little chances of winning. Miles is a famous Imperial Level weapon refiner from the Shura College. Harley will be at a major disadvantage," Riley explained calmly.

As Holy Phoenix listened, her expression started to soften. She knew that all she could do for now was wait for the events to unfold. Nevertheless, she couldn't help but wish t

is treasure is the Silver Demonic Scale. A scarce casting material at the Imperial Level," Miles said, emphasizing the last part as he laced his voice with arrogance.

Soon enough, the whole square burst with amazement. This was indeed an Imperial Level material that was additionally hard to come by. Their reaction further boosted Miles' confidence. He felt sure that he would win and he was filled with pride at the thought that any treasure he casually took out would overwhelm Zachary, who looked obviously, inexperienced in weapon refining.

"Oh, what a nice treasure! It's my turn, then," said Zachary, nodding. He flipped his hand, where a purple jade suddenly materialized. A quite common one at that.

"What the hell is this jade? Are you trying to insult me?" Miles said with utter disdain.

The onlookers else shook their heads, feeling almost embarrassed for Zachary. The purple jade was obviously nowhere near as strong as the Silver Demonic Scale.

"Just wait and see!" As he spoke, Zachary injected golden energy fire into the dim purple jade, which then shone brightly in an instant. The result was a five-colored jade that emitted strong essential power.

"I can't believe it. Is that the Five-colored Magic Jade?" Jaxon's eyes widened at the sudden realization. It was natural for someone with his experience to immediately recognize such a treasure.
