“Since that’s the case, let the The Newman Family lottery assembly begin now.” Ethan Lewis didn’t waste words. With a wave of his hand, seven beams of treasure light suddenly shot out from the sleeve of his left hand.
The seven beams of treasure light, each a different color, instantly illuminated the The Newman Family great hall with dazzling brilliance.
The treasure lights scattered onto the stone floor at the center of the hall, transforming into seven sparkling magical artifacts: a sword, a saber, a fan, a glove, a wooden staff, a pearl, and a beast bone.
All the elders and juniors of the The Newman Family immediately cleared the space at the center of the hall the moment the seven magical artifacts landed, forming a ring around the seven items.
Everyone’s gaze instantly focused on those exquisite magical artifacts, not sparing William Newman another glance.
Even the three brothers of David Newman subconsciously stood up at this moment, each releasing a wave of spiritual power from within to sense the attributes and grade of the seven magical artifacts.
Many members of the The Newman Family also had their eyes shining, likewise using their internal spiritual power to sense.
Azure, purple, red, blue—spiritual light and treasure aura of different hues flashed from the seven magical artifacts under the perception of the The Newman Family cultivators’ power.
“Low-grade fifth rank!”
Henry Newman widened his eyes, staring fixedly at the azure pearl that Ethan Lewis had just produced, his breathing growing rapid.
“Heavens, is it really fifth rank?”
“By tradition, aren’t all the magical artifacts supposed to be low-grade third rank? Even a low-grade fifth rank artifact is extremely valuable, a reward given by the Lingyun Sect to true disciples. This time…”
“Mr. Lewis is truly generous!”
Under the spiritual perception of the crowd, the azure pearl seemed to have threads of lightning flickering inside, making it appear even more extraordinary and causing the The Newman Family members to look on with envy.
The second eldest of the The Newman Family, Eric Newman, stared intently at the pearl, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Henry Newman was his son, and Charles Newman was naturally his grandson. Not long after Charles Newman was born, he had secretly used a special technique to sense Charles Newman’s talent.
Because his own cultivation level was insufficient, he had even used a rare pill, and was seventy percent certain that Charles Newman possessed a trace of lightning attribute within.
And that low-grade fifth rank azure pearl was clearly a magical artifact containing lightning, perfectly matching Charles Newman’s cultivation attribute.
Eric Newman’s mind stirred. He quickly turned to Ethan Lewis and bowed in thanks: “Many thanks for your generosity, Mr. Lewis.”
The others, coming to their senses, also thanked Ethan Lewis for his lavishness after Eric Newman.
Ethan Lewis waved his hand, signaling everyone to be silent, then said, “From this moment on, no one is allowed to use their spiritual power to sense, nor to disturb the aura of the artifacts. Now, everything is up to those eight children—let’s see what fortune awaits them.”
“Let the eight children enter!” David Newman said in a deep voice.
“Go on!” Grace Newman secretly breathed a sigh of relief and finally let go of William Newman.
The moment the seven magical artifacts landed, the William Newman beside her already had his eyes shining, eager to rush into the arena. If she hadn’t been gripping William Newman’s arm, he probably wouldn’t have waited for everyone to finish speaking and would have dashed out already.
Now, as soon as she let go, William Newman indeed spread his arms wide, and with a posture as if embracing the world, charged into the arena with a “thump thump.”
Chapter 3: The Most Heinous Incident in The Newman Family History!
“Bang!”
A child standing in front of William Newman was instantly knocked to the ground by William Newman’s charge.
That child was Brian Newman’s grandson, Matthew Newman. After Matthew Newman fell, he immediately began to wail loudly.
William Newman didn’t even glance at Matthew Newman, nor did he try to avoid him, simply stepping right over Matthew Newman’s body.
As his right foot landed, William Newman happened to step on Matthew Newman’s hand, making Matthew Newman’s cries even more miserable.
Brian Newman, who had just calmed down, and Matthew Newman’s father Daniel Newman, both looked grim with heartache.
However, it was common for children participating in the lottery assembly to collide while scrambling for magical artifacts. Although Brian Newman and Daniel Newman were displeased, they held back and did not immediately react.
“William Newman, be careful!” Grace Newman called out anxiously.
But William Newman seemed not to hear Grace Newman’s call. After passing Matthew Newman, he immediately rushed toward the magical artifact closest to him.
On the way, another The Newman Family child was staring eagerly at a glove radiating a faint red light. As the child reached out, his fingertips gradually emitted a trace of red glow.
It was clear that the child’s cultivation attribute matched perfectly with the spiritual power within the glove.
“That’s Sophie’s blessing!” An offshoot member of the The Newman Family exclaimed emotionally, instantly becoming excited.
Ethan Lewis and all the The Newman Family members could tell at a glance that the red-glowing glove was exactly what Sophie Newman needed.
Ethan Lewis nodded slightly, thinking to himself, “Fire attribute…”
At this moment, everyone noticed Sophie Newman’s small hand trembling as it was about to grasp the glove.
Just then, William Newman, who had been running all the way, crashed into Sophie Newman just as he was about to grab the glove, knocking him to the ground.
Before the bewildered Sophie Newman could even start crying, William Newman had already snatched up the glove and burst into exaggerated laughter.
As William Newman laughed heartily, the now-reacting Sophie Newman finally began to wail loudly, “Waaah! Mine, mine…”
