However, Jared felt somewhat inappropriate to snatch it directly. After all, if he, who had just becthe sect leader, seized things from his subordinates, it would cause resentment among many inner court disciples! However, Jared was extremely fond of the spiritual brush. In fact, having this brush would speed up his efforts in inscribing divine markings! Watching Wulfric continuously etching array runes and setting up a formation, a sudden spark of enlightenment hit Jared! "Mr. Pritchard, this duel lacks excitement. How about we raise the stakes? That should make things more thrilling," Jared said to Wulfric.

"I see you have a pretty decent spiritual brush in your hand. Let's make a bet. If I can break through your triple array within thirty minutes, you'll handthat spiritual brush in your possession, and I'll take over as the sect leader. If I can't, you will still be the sect leader. And I promise, the position of sect leader will always be yours in the future," Jared said.
"What did you say? You can break my triple array in thirty minutes?" Wulfric's face turned extremely unsightly. He snorted coldly and said, "Don't even mention thirty minutes. You may not even be able to break through my triple array in a day. I can accept your wager, but considering that your words carry little weight due to your low status, can your promise to secure my position as the sect leader be trusted?" Wulfric couldn't believe that Jared could break his formations within thirty minutes. It was just that he found it hard to trust Jared's words! After all, what Jared said about the Duad Formation Sect didn't really matter. Only the words of the Divinus truly held weight! "I'm true to my words. With Mickey here as my witness, if I lose, I'll ask Elder Divinus to change the rules. The position of sect leader will be yours to hold indefinitely." After Jared finished speaking, he turned to Mickey and said, "Mickey, you should say something..." Mickey knew what Jared was up to. He wanted the spiritual brush, but was too embarrassed to openly demand them. That was why he proposed this bet! "Mr. Pritchard, I can stand in for my Master and accept this wager from Jared," Mickey said.
Upon hearing Mickey's words, a look of triumph instantly flashed across Wulfric's face! It was simply impossible to break through his triple array in the span of thirty minutes.

From then on, there was no need to recommend anyone else for the position of sect leader. As long as he wanted to be the sect leader, the position would always be his! Seeing that Wulfric had agreed, Jared secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If he hadn't agreed, Jared would have had no choice but to snatch it by force! Wulfric's spiritual brush once again danced in his hand. One by one, array runes appeared in the void! Swiftly, a triple array emerged on the martial arts arena! The triple array was continuously shimmering, appearing and disappearing intermittently. At a glance, they seemed like three separate arcane arrays, but there was a hidden connection between them! “Jared, these three arrays are far from simple. They may appear separate, but they are interconnected. Be careful." Mickey discerned the intricacies of the formation and quietly alerted Jared to them! Jared simply chuckled, but he didn't utter a word.
Wulfric stood there, brimming with confidence, and declared, "Go ahead, give it your best shot. I'd like to see how you intend to break my triple array within thirty minutes!" "Start the timer..." Upon Wulfric's command, a candle was lit!
Jared leapt into the martial arts arena and scrutinized the triple array before him. Even if he could locate the core attempting to break this triple array would be a task too daunting to complete within thirty minutes!
Moreover, this triple array could effectively conceal the location of their core. Even if he managed to identify the core's position, the interconnected nature of the triple array meant that the moment one was broken, the others would immediately shift and change!
"Mr. Pritchard, you have truly lived up to his reputation as an array prodigy. These arrays, though appearing independent, are tightly interlinked. Breaking any one of them will e inevitably alter the structure of the other two. If the core is incorrectly identified, all three arrays will simultaneously undergo changes, rendering all the initial work done a waste," Jared complimented Wulfric.
