Chapter 52: An Unexpected Ranking
In the face of my attitude, Gu Glory and his father were completely helpless. Seeing his own son being beaten by me incessantly, the middle-aged man finally lost his arrogant attitude before, and he roared angrily: "Okay! I promise you, ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge! ”
"That's right......" I grinned and whispered, "Alright, great sir, please make the payment first." I'm telling you, we're all asking for money, and if you don't pay now, I'm afraid I'm going to be in a bad mood. And people like us. Once you can't get the money, you will want to kill. ”
"I ......"
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and looked at me with cannibalistic eyes, and he roared: "Okay, I'll pay now, and you will also release my son." ”
With that, he pulled out a very strange device and started using it, which was kind of similar to a tablet. After he did some work, Su Xin seemed to have received a transfer prompt. He nodded to me, and I kicked Ancient Glory down the stairs, smiling, and saying, "Bye bye." ”
The audience was silent, as if they had not reacted to the heated situation. Finally, the masked man coughed and said to me, "Go to the president, now you can get ready to receive the award." ”
I nodded, and headed downstairs, completely ignoring the middle-aged man's shadow. Just as I walked to the staircase, the middle-aged man suddenly roared angrily: "Jiang Cheng! You wait, ten years is just a matter of moments for me. You'll pay for it! ”
I shrugged my shoulders as if I hadn't heard it, and went downstairs.
When I came to the conference hall downstairs, there were already a lot of people sitting here, all of whom didn't know about the beating of Gu Glory just now, and they were still chatting with great interest. When they saw me come in, they all smiled and looked at me like a genius.
Before Huo Liantian could react from what had just happened, he followed me to the table and sat down with a trembling body, and then whispered: "Niang Lie, just beat the people of the Gu family like this, Brother Jiang Cheng, you are really strong enough." ”
I smiled and said, "What's there to say, stop talking, the award is about to begin." ”
Huo Liantian nodded, and at this time, under the watchful eye of everyone, Nameless finally walked into the conference hall. The moment he entered, the people fell silent, not daring to say anything more. I saw Nameless walk up to the podium, and he took the microphone. He said softly: "I'm not very good at this kind of scene, first congratulate the immortal masters who succeeded in the rookie competition, and then without further ado, let's start the award ceremony directly." ”
The people immediately laughed, and it seemed that they had long understood the nameless character. At this time, everyone whispered and discussed who the top three should be this time, and the name mentioned the most was me. Almost everybody thought I was going to be number one in this rookie contest.
"After the previous test, there are four immortal masters who are not eligible for this ranking, so there are six immortal masters who have won the award...... Nameless smiled, "I'll talk about the sixth place first, and ask Jiang Cheng to come to the stage to receive the award." ”
Ga?
In an instant, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone's eyes widened. And I couldn't believe it. As if I had misheard.
This...... Am I number six?
There were four immortal masters just now who were not qualified for this award, so in other words, I am the weakest one in the award list?
Huo Liantian also looked at Nameless blankly, and he muttered, "It's not normal, you can definitely get into the top three." Why did the good end end become the last one? ”
I also shook my head, and Nameless said softly: "The immortal weapon created by Jiang Cheng is not bad, it is a Huangguang Great Perfection immortal weapon, and it is used as a town house." But after investigation, he spent a lot of energy and ability to build this time, and it was not as easy as other immortal artists. So strictly speaking, in terms of strength, Jiang Cheng can't get the position everyone expects. ”
It dawned on people that they were nameless, and then they all said that the nameless was very reasonable.
"It's still the president's discernment, so Jiang Cheng is really not very capable."
"I also want Gaoxin to hire him over, thanks to the president's reminder."
"We walked into a misunderstanding before, that is, Jiang Cheng created the immortal weapon of the Yellow Light Great Perfection. But the problem is that he exerted ten points of strength, and the other immortal masters estimated that they only exerted five or six points of strength. ”
"It's a pity for Jiang Cheng, alas, but it's okay, the immortal artifact master is a profession that pays attention to strength."
People felt sorry for me, but they all accepted the decision. I just feel red-faced. It's like being slapped in the face.
This...... It's completely different from what I guessed before.
Obviously, I have created such a good immortal weapon, but I can only be rated as sixth, I am not reconciled.
At this time, Nameless suddenly raised his head to look at me, showed me a warm smile, and said softly: "Jiang Cheng Xiaoyou, please don't be discouraged. You are still young, and although you don't know a lot of things now, you will definitely become an excellent immortal artifact master after a long time. Please come and claim your prize. You have 40,000 Aoki coins and a medal to claim. Sorry, there is no physical prize for 6th place. ”
Seeing the nameless smile, my heart suddenly moved, and then I nodded and stepped forward to take a card and medal from his hand. The medal was made of pure gold, and it was engraved with the words rookie immortal master, I put away the medal, and then said to Nameless in a cold voice: "Thank you Mr. for your encouragement, but I can't quite accept the result of this competition, so be it, I'll go." As for the celebration feast or something, you can eat it yourself. ”
With that, I walked straight to the door of the conference hall in full view of everyone. Everyone sighed in disappointment, and when Su Xin and Huo Liantian saw this, they hurriedly followed me, and the three of us walked out with a sigh. After waiting out of the conference hall, Huo Liantian sighed and said, "Brother Jiang Cheng, your attitude is not quite right, isn't this offending the nameless president?" ”
"Not to offend ......," I shook my head. Then he smiled and whispered, "I felt reluctant before, but now I understand that he did it on purpose." ”
"Deliberately?" Huo Liantian frowned.
I whispered, "Remember what he said earlier?" He said that I was not good enough and didn't know a lot of things, and I felt unwilling at that time, but after hearing this passage, I immediately understood. If I get a good ranking in this rookie competition, there will definitely be a lot of forces to poach me. It will also become a thorn in the side of many people. Mr. Nobody did this to protect me, because I was new to the city and didn't understand anything, so I might offend people in this regard. So. He wanted me to suffer a small loss, and deliberately made me the last one, according to my estimates, there are more than 40,000 Aoki coins in this card. ”
"Oh? I'll investigate. ”
Huo Liantian took the card. Then he summoned the same strange instrument as the middle-aged man just now, inserted the card into it, and then said in surprise: "There are a total of 80,000 Aoki coins!" ”
"This is Mr. Anonymous telling me that the strength I showed this time can be in the top three......" I laughed. Anyway, since he intended to cultivate me, I can't let him down. Let's go, anyway, we won the sixth place, the Immortal Artifact Association of Yin Yang County. There shouldn't be a problem. ”
Huo Liantian nodded repeatedly, he returned the card to me, and said softly: "Although you owed some money to the association before, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to keep the association at all, so let's take me as a thank you gift." So Brother Jiang Cheng, just like the idea of the nameless president, in order to avoid trouble, let's book a ferry ticket and go back now, right? ”
I shook my head and said, "No, you can go back by yourself." ”
"Aren't you going back?" Huo Liantian said in astonishment.
I smiled and said, "Since you have come to such a big place as White Tiger County, you must develop here well." Thank you, President Fire, for taking care of me, it's just that I have some things I want to do. In this White Tiger County, there will definitely be a recruiting office, right? ”
Huo Liantian immediately understood what I meant, and he sighed that young people are just love to break.
I smiled. Then he looked at Su Xin and said softly, "It's all done, right?" ”
"Hmm......" Su Xin nodded, "The recruiting office is always recruiting, I've seen it, and we basically match those conditions." As long as you go to the recruiting office, you should be able to choose. ”
"What a ......"
I stretched my waist and said slowly: "Since this is the case, let's take a look at what the army of this immortal realm is like." ”
