Chapter Ninety-Six: First Place
The once-in-a-decade Trial Day of the Five Kingdoms has finally come to an end, but the ending is very confusing.
The one who won the crown was not the proud son of the heavens of the countries who was favored, but Mu Shi, the waste son of the Mu family, who was once regarded as a joke in the imperial capital. At the moment when Mu Shi took off the flag, the contestants from all over the country who had been eliminated also made an uproar.
"Damn, that's fine!"
"Why! It stands to reason that Si Li's team won the first place! β
"What shit luck this guy has gone!"
"I'm so angry, this guy is too lucky!"
"Why did Si Li give up the first one!"
There was a lot of discussion among the younger generation, and the elders were also stunned by this sudden result.
"Father...... Mu Shi won......" An Xian looked blankly at the young man in the center of the light curtain, and now he was in the spotlight, and his high-spirited appearance fascinated the girl's eyes.
"This ......." Yun Tianlang opened his mouth, seemingly a little difficult to accept, and finally raised his head and laughed.
"Your Majesty, the dog is stubborn, please forgive the sin." Mu Jiangbei stood up and saluted Yun Tianlang, a rare look of helplessness appeared on his stiff face, although Mu Shi won the championship, but what is this situation?
Yun Tianlang stopped laughing, raised his hand and signaled that it was okay, "Mu Aiqing, as long as he gets the flag, no matter what method he uses, he will be the champion." β
"Opportunism is not a good thing." Mu Jiangbei was very stubborn, "Please Your Majesty will award the first place to Si Li's team." β
"Ordinary people don't have the ability to be opportunistic." Lan Yue's emperor smiled skillfully, covered his lips with his bare hands, and looked forward to it, "I heard the name of the young master when I heard Mu Shi early, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its name." β
Yun Tianlang also has a headache for Mu Jiangbei's corrupt stubbornness, doesn't he understand that if the first team is transferred to Si Li, it means that no one in Yunchuang has the qualification to get the first place? ! The first reward is an existence that even he is painful for, and no matter what, Yunchuang has to have someone to take a share.
"Your Majesty, it's better to count Mu Shi and Si Li as a team and be ranked first." Shu Lao said at the right time, "This will not only follow the rules of the game, but will not cause others to be dissatisfied." β
"Elder Shu is right." Yun Tianlang nodded and looked at Shu Lao gratefully. Elder Shu stood up and cleared his throat, and the voice containing elemental power resounded around the lake, "When you saw what happened in the secret realm just now, you must also understand that Mu Shi cooperated with Si Li's team to obtain the flag. β
"In view of the special situation of Mu Shi being alone in one team, in this competition, it was decided that Mu Shi was not returned to the Si Li team, exactly five people."
"The first place this time is Si Li, Gu Nansui, Li Yuansheng, Su Junlai, and Mu Shi together, do you have any objections?"
The teenagers under the high stage looked at each other and did not make a sound. What objections can they have, Si Li doesn't all mind giving the first place to Mu Shi, this change is not bad for Mu Shi to take advantage of.
"Since no one has any objections, let's invite our champion to come out." Yun Tianlang struggled with a good mood, smiled slightly, stood up and walked to the front of the high platform, and the majestic elemental power appeared in his hand again, only to see Yun Tianlang pinched a trick, and a golden light shot towards the light curtain on the lake, and the light curtain shattered, turning into a golden seal that appeared for the first time and smashed into the lake again.
The water of the lake surged, and a crack opened its mouth like a monstrous beast.
"Whoa!"
In the midst of the splashing water, one after another figures were thrown out in embarrassment, falling to the shore and coughing.
"It's ....... We're out, huh? Su Junlai sat on the ground and looked around in a daze, the clear air that was completely different from the secret realm made people can't help but take two deep breaths.
"Seems like so." Li Yuansheng stood up and rubbed his sore arm and looked around, all the proud sons of the sky were embarrassed, and they must have been suddenly spit out.
"It's still comfortable in the real world~" Su Junlai rubbed his ass and showed his intoxication, and took a deep breath of air.
"Although the aura of the Realm of Trials is of great benefit to our cultivation, it is indeed not a place where people can stay for a long time." Si Li walked over and patted the folded clothes, he was considered to be the image of this group of people in good condition.
"Hey, hey, how much has Si been up from you?!" Su Junlai couldn't wait to come to Si Li, looking eager to try.
Si Li glanced at Su Junlai with a smile, and his slender fingers nodded his lips and said mysteriously, "Guess what?" β
"If I want to see it, will I still ask?!" Su Junlai rolled his eyes, turned his head and pounced on Mu Shi who got up, "Woo woo, Xiao Mu Shisi, this guy always bullies me!" β
"It's obvious that someone wants to be mysteriousβ" Mu Shi was almost knocked down by a large creature as soon as he stood firm, and struggled to break Su Junlai's claws on his body, "I can't see your strength clearly, everyone is the same." β
Su Junlai was poked and grimaced.
"You look happy! The first is to be taken advantage of, and there is still the mood to laugh here. Prince Ben really admires your open-mindedness. Yun Chuyi walked over with a pale face and was helped by Mu Xue, coldly sneering.
"If it weren't for Mu Shi's danger of blocking the blow of His Highness and the prince, I'm afraid I'm the one who is being supported now." Si Li smiled faintly, and walked to the front to block Mu Shi who was targeted, "It's just a false name, with His Highness's broad mind, the roles are reversed, and there must be more things for Mu Shi." β
"Hmph." Yun Chuyi snorted with a cold face, "Let's go!" Mu Xue, who had not spoken, responded softly, and before helping Yun Chuyi to leave, her eyes quietly glanced at Mu Shi, who was blocked by several excellent teenagers, and a trace of jealousy flashed.
Many people have seen the movement just now, and they have been commented by countless people to feel very uncomfortable with Mu Shi, who is used to staying in the dark, lowered his head and touched his nose, Mu Shi laughed dryly, and said, "I just wanted to be angry with them, the flag belongs to you, and I am not interested in being the first." β
"We're not interested either." Su Junlai was the first to speak, and hurriedly looked at the other three people, "You too!" β
"yes." Si Li nodded with a smile, Gu Nansui was silent for a moment, and nodded lightly, only Li Yuansheng snorted lightly, twisted his head with his arms crossed, and did not refute.
It's really four people with their own characteristics. Mu Shi couldn't help but laugh and shook his head gently, "If I really take it, I won't be able to win, and with my reputation, I'm afraid there will be many people who are not convinced." β
"We can't just accept it." Su Junlai waved his fist and swept around threateningly.
"Don't quarrel with the five proud sons." The old tree floated down and looked at the five of them with a smile, "We have already decided, and the first place will be won by the five of you." β
"Huh?" The five of them were all surprised.
"Why don't you come on stage and accept the glory?" The tree elder touched his beard and reminded.
Mu Shi glanced at Si Li hesitantly, and Si Li said softly, "The reward of Yunchuang's first place, you will be interested." β
"Something." Mu Shi curiously approached Si Li and asked.
"You'll know if you see it." Si Li winked mysteriously at Mu Shi, hooking Mu Shi's curiosity.
"You....... Deliberately. Mu Shi was helpless and nodded. So Si Li took the lead, Gu Nan followed, Su Junlai Li Yuansheng was in the middle, and Mu Shi walked in the back in a low-key manner.
Even though Mu Shi tried to reduce his sense of existence, the moment he took the stage still caused an uproar.
"Quiet!" The old tree frowned, and the elemental power shouted in his voice, and a circle of sound waves swept over, which immediately provoked the people in the audience to stagger, not daring to speak.
Yun Tianlang glanced at the five teenagers, and nodded with satisfaction, each of the five countries has one, it is very fair, and his face will not be gloomy.
The pretty maid walked in with a tray of fish, Yun Tianlang personally picked up a golden laurel crown and put it on everyone's head, and finally when it was Mu Shishi's turn, he chuckled and said, "I didn't expect you to open my eyes." β
Mu Shi blinked lightly, his face innocent, "I just rubbed their light, Mu Shi himself doesn't have the ability." β
"You want to blindfold me, but it's a little hard." Yun Tianlang snorted, put the laurel crown on Mu Shi's head, walked back to the throne and sat down, and said lightly, "Congratulations to the five of you for winning the crown, you are all the pride of the empire." I hereby declare that I have conferred upon the five the title of Earl of the Empire, with the possession of the realm and the army. β
As soon as these words came out, they set off waves again.
Earl, that is an official who has really entered the high-ranking aristocracy, and Yun Tianlang does not give lip service glory, but really has territory and real power. Earls are not small in an empire, but such a young earl is indeed very rare.
"Ha, congratulations, Lord Count." Beiye suddenly spoke, and the voice that sounded like congratulations was mixed with laughter.
"Come less, I hate being in charge of the east and the west the most." Mu Shi rolled his eyes at the northern night in the sea of knowledge.
Si Li's four faces were calm, they were all descendants of other countries' noble status, and they were not excited about the officials of the Yunchuang Empire. But still pretending, they all saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty." β
"In addition, the second place will be awarded to the baron, and the third place will be awarded to the viscount, and they will be awarded together when the time comes." Yun Tianlang also knew that these people didn't care about the so-called earl status, what he wanted was to tie Mu Shi to Yunchuang.
The two teams standing behind the five people of Mu Shi, the team led by Lin Qingyue and Yun Chuyi, knelt down to thank them after hearing it, although the first person didn't care, but in this competition, the genius who came out of ordinary families, the trial day of the Five Kingdoms, is also a springboard for civilians.
It was Yun Chuyi, his unwilling eyes were undisguised, and he couldn't help but be full of murderous intent when he looked at Mu Shi's back: it was all Mu Shi's harm, if there was no such guy in the way in the end, he should be the one standing at the front to accept the glory and attention at this moment!
Yun Chuyi thought hatefully, and inadvertently looked up to see Yun Tianlang's eyes looking at him, with a faint indifference and disappointment in his eyes, and he was suddenly frightened, and lowered his head respectfully with his killing intent.
"As for Tianchi's cultivation qualifications, only the first place is eligible to enter. You have no objections, do you? Seeing that his son was retracted, Yun Tianlang retracted his gaze and asked with a smile.
Hearing the word Tianchi, so the boys and girls all had a light in their eyes, and then they all shook their heads, just kidding, people just went through a procedure to ask, what if they really disagreed?
Mu Shi saw that even Gu Nan's eyes lit up when he saw that he was so cold, that he was instantly interested in this Tianchi. It must be a very precious thing to be able to make these four people with their eyes above the top so unabashedly covetous.
"Huh." Beiye's low chuckle sounded in the spiritual sense, "I didn't expect this Yunchuang Empire to have so many good things, no wonder it's embattled." Mu Shi heard that he just wanted to put something out of Beiye's mouth, but was interrupted by Yun Tianlang.
"In five days, you will come to the palace again, and someone will take you there." After Yun Tianlang finished speaking, he handed over the rest of the matter to Shu Lao and turned to leave.
