Chapter 44: Feelings

Hearing Ji Changqing pleading for Ji Chen, everyone on the side also knelt down and pleaded with Ji Xiaonian: "Yes, Your Majesty, Ji Chen is still young, not to mention that he is extremely talented, this time he won the first place in the big competition, please open up the net!"

When Ji Chen heard this, a warm current welled up in his heart, and his originally nervous heart was relieved a lot at the moment, he looked at Ji Xiaonian's stern face and found that there was a smile on his face.

Ji Xiaonian's face changed slightly, he cleared his throat and said: "Ahem, since so many people have interceded with you, then I will spare you for the time being, if you dare to be so reckless next time, you will not be spared!"

Ji Chen stood up and nodded hurriedly, thinking that this matter was finally over, he recalled the sneering of the bandits that day, and couldn't help but regret it: "I can't pretend like this anymore in the future, I can't afford to hurt myself!"

Ji Xiaonian walked out of the crowd, with a heroic aura all over his body, he looked at the crowd around the audience and said solemnly: "This dynasty competition was supposed to be presided over by me, but due to some special reasons, I had to let the great elder do it for me."

He looked at Ji Changqing beside him, very satisfied, and then said: "But at this time, it is also just right, the most important award moment of the big competition will be presided over by me, now please ask Ji Chen, the first place in the big competition, to give an acceptance speech!"

Suddenly, the applause and cheers rang out one after another, making Ji Chen on the side nervous, he had never been nervous in such a fierce game before, but at this moment, there were ripples in his emotions.

Ji Chen took a deep breath and calmed down, and did not speak immediately after walking on the stone platform, he looked at everyone present, this was the moment he had dreamed of coming for many days and nights, and the excitement in his heart was difficult to hide at this moment.

At this time, Xiao Ran in the audience clenched his fists, the sweat in his palms soaked his sleeves, and his heart was as if he had been twisted, because the next scene was something he didn't want to see.

She thought that Ji Chen would return those words to her in public, if that was the case, her face in the Four Elephants Dynasty would be gone, and this result made her feel sour when she thought about it.

Ji Chen seemed to see Xiao Ran, who was uneasy at the moment, his eyes only stayed for a moment and then moved away, and there was no joy or anger on his face.

He let out a long sigh of relief and suppressed the previous excitement, just as he thought after winning Murong Feng, he had already stood at this height, why should some people and some things be mentioned again? See you in the future are just strangers!

He said slowly: "I don't actually have an acceptance speech today, I just have a dream since I was a child, I want to become stronger, become like my father, become like the Great Elder of Changqing, become like Your Majesty!

The more Ji Chen's words spoke, the more excited he became, "But my dream was shattered for a time, and I think everyone knows this, because there are many people here who have more or less ridiculed and ridiculed me as a 'waste'"

When Ji Chen said this, he looked around the audience, and the people who were still whispering stopped talking at the moment, as if expressing their apologies with silence.

Ji Chen paused for a moment and said: "But I have never given up, I have insisted on cultivating day after day, and my efforts can be seen day by day! Compared to this, no one dares to say that I am second and first!"

Ji Xiaonian's expression changed slightly when he heard this, he naturally knew what happened to Ji Chen, thinking that Ji Chen was one of the best geniuses in the Four Elephant Dynasty, but for some reason his cultivation had been stagnant, Ji Xiaonian once thought that this young man might fall into a slump and go down.

But now hearing Ji Chen's words, Ji Xiaonian also has to admire Ji Chen's perseverance, because even if Ji Chen came out of the gap at the beginning, the cynicism of others would drown him like a flood, and it was really not easy for Ji Chen to strengthen his heart in such a situation!

How many people can maintain such an attitude of neither humility nor arrogance after falling from the top of the mountain into the abyss? The most taboo thing in the cultivation world is to be eager for quick success, and what is most needed is Ji Chen's temperament.

Ji Chen calmed down his mood and said: "Fortunately, the sky has paid off, and I have found myself! The once weak Ji Chen will never appear again, as for the trivial matters in the past, they will disappear with that Ji Chen!"

Ji Xiaonian and the others nodded appreciatively when they heard this, they appreciated Ji Chen's steadiness very much, and Ji Chen's age was only more than ten years old, if he hadn't experienced some things at this age, he would not have such an awareness.

At this time, Xiao Ran looked at Ji Chen in a daze, she suddenly felt as if she had done something wrong, or missed something, but her stubborn personality made her unwilling to admit it.

She was a little unconvinced, and muttered: "What's so great about Dabi No. 1? I, Xiao Ran, still can't look down on it!" But when she said this, she felt unconfident, and her voice became smaller and smaller.

Yes, what qualifications does she have to judge Ji Chen now, in the past, she looked down on Ji Chen from above, but now? Ji Chen is in the limelight, and she doesn't care about seeing her as a little person at all.

Xiao Ran looked at the hazy sky and smiled self-deprecatingly, only she knew what she was thinking now.

And Xiao Shan, who was on the side, saw that his daughter seemed to understand something like this, so he could only sigh secretly, "Girl, I hope that after this incident, your temperament can be smoothed out a little!"

At this time, Ji Chen's acceptance speech was over, and his affectionate speech shocked the people present, and the tortuous growth path of a genius moved everyone, whether they knew or didn't know Ji Chen's past, they were in tears at the moment, as if they felt the same way.

"Ji Chen, I love you! I want to marry you!" Some excited girls actually rushed to confess to Ji Chen, and the exaggeration of their words made Ji Chen stunned.

And some teenagers took Ji Chen as their benchmark, "Brother Chen, you are my idol!

......

The words of on-site confession and loyalty were endless, which made Ji Chen a little embarrassed, but all in all, Ji Chen became famous in the Sixiang Dynasty, and he was ashamed of the past and now snowed, and has become the "first person" recognized by the younger generation.

Ji Xiaonian saw that Ji Chen had said almost, and then announced the end of this big competition, so far, the big competition of the Four Elephant Dynasty has come to an end.

After the big competition ended, Ji Chen, who was originally going to go home, was left behind by Ji Xiaonian, Ji Chen's heart jumped, and he secretly thought that Ji Xiaonian wouldn't still trouble him, right?

But it turned out that Ji Chen thought too much, but in fact, Ji Xiaonian left him because there was something very important.

Ji Chen followed Ji Xiaonian to the palace, and after entering the palace, the two did not stay, Ji Xiaonian directly took Ji Chen to a secret room.

Ji Chen looked this secret room up and down, and found that this secret room had no other features except for being a little dark, and there was nothing in this secret room at all.

Originally, Ji Chen thought that Ji Xiaonian was going to take him to the treasure house to select spiritual treasures and exercises, so he asked carefully: "Your Majesty, aren't we going to the treasure house?

Ji Xiaonian looked at Ji Chen angrily and said, "What are you anxious about?

"Of course not", Ji Chen shook his head hurriedly and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

Ji Xiaonian was a little puzzled: "Why are you just thinking about what treasure trove, aren't you interested in becoming my apprentice?"

"How come, impossible", Ji Chen's expression was a little exaggerated, trying to cover up the plan in his heart.

Ji Dongfang shook his head helplessly, "I really don't understand what you kid is thinking, there are not only many people outside who want to be my apprentice, why did you become as if I forced you?"

Ji Chen hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood, I am, flattered, yes, flattered"

Ji Chen didn't want Ji Xiaonian to think too much, so he hurriedly knelt down to him, and shouted respectfully: "The disciple visits the master, I hope that the master will be blessed and safe, and his wishes will come true, and he will become enlighten......ed as soon as possible."

"Okay, okay, the more you talk, the more energetic, get up", Ji Xiaonian asked Ji Chen to get up, although he reprimanded Ji Chen a little in his mouth, but he was still very useful to these words in his heart, thinking that Ji Chen still spoke one by one.

Then Ji Xiaonian said leisurely: "For the sake of your heart, I will accept you as my second apprentice."

"Second apprentice?" Ji Chen wondered, "Could it be that I still have a senior brother who has never met?"

"It's not a senior brother, it's a senior sister!" Ji Xiaonian corrected.

"Oh", Ji Chen nodded when he heard this, and asked again: "Where is the senior sister now, can I meet her?"

"She has already gone out to practice, and it will be a little difficult for you to meet her", Ji Xiaonian said lightly.

"Oh, Your Majesty, then what are we going to do next, I always feel so embarrassed in this little dark room!" Ji Chen touched his head and said.

"I said you ......", Ji Xiaonian was a little annoyed, he felt that Ji Chen was not here to apprentice today, it seemed that he was just here to go through the motions, but he just felt it, and then he didn't think much about it.

Ji Xiaonian turned to a straight color and said: "The next thing is very important, although you are a member of the Ji family, I still have to conduct a simple test on you"

"What test?" Ji Chen wondered.

"I want to search your memory", Ji Xiaonian's expression was serious.

Ji Chen was startled when he heard this, thinking that wouldn't searching for memories expose the existence of the jade seal, and the consequences of this were really not something he could imagine.

Ji Xiaonian saw Ji Chen's expression in a trance, thinking that Ji Chen had some misunderstanding about searching for memory, so he explained: "You don't have to be nervous, as long as you take the initiative to cooperate with me, nothing will happen, I believe you are fine, but the rules set by the ancestors have to go through the motions"

"I, I ......", Ji Chen didn't know what to say, a little overwhelmed.

And Yuxi suddenly said at this time: "Don't panic, I've already hidden my memory, and this kid can't find it yet."

Hearing what Yuxi said, Ji Chen said with confidence: "I have no problem, Your Majesty, you start, I will definitely cooperate!"

Ji Xiaonian was a little puzzled by Ji Chen's sudden initiative, thinking that why did Ji Chen's attitude suddenly change so quickly, but he didn't care too much.

He put his hand on Ji Chen's forehead and began to search for Ji Chen's memory, and there was nothing unusual in the whole process, so it didn't take long to end.

"Okay, the search is over, you can start the next thing", Ji Xiaonian waved his hand, and a spiritual power wandered back and forth on the wall, forming a special totem, although this totem is only a few simple outlines, but it is like a living person, and it even vaguely reveals a kind of domineering that reigns over the world.

Although this totem Ji Chen had never seen before, at this moment he actually had a feeling that he had not seen for a long time, and the blood in his body was a little boiling, as if he had an inexplicable relationship with this totem.

Gradually, the light of the totem on the wall became brighter, Ji Chen closed his eyes, and when he opened it again, he found that he seemed to be in the totem.
