There was an eerie silence. The entire arena was silent for half a minute. Then, everyone cheered—
“Hahahahaha! Hong Dali is something else, man! He wants to be the number one prodigal of the entire universe! What a dream!”
“He’s so cute, I like it. Hahaha! Hong Dali, you’re the best!”
Lucifer stared with wide eyes and helplessly said, “As expected. To wash a pig is to waste both water and soap. But I like it! I won’t be calling him the Young Master if he didn’t say that. Haha!”
“Only the Young Master dares to say that.” Li Yang was all smiles. He had full respect for what Hong Dali said. “Nobody else will say that. Who dares to call himself a prodigal in front of so many people? Hehe, Young Master is no ordinary man!”
“That’s why we’re always willing to stay by his side.” Ling Xiaoyi smiled and said, “The Young Master’s always so charismatic!”
Ling Xiaoyi, Li Yang, and the rest expressed their utmost heartfelt compliments towards Hong Dali. However, the host was completely depressed.
How am I supposed to follow up after that slogan you shouted.
“Ah, your goals are amazing!”
What the heck. So many people are watching now. If I praise you for having respectable ambitions after you said you want to become the biggest prodigal, I’ll lose my job!
Luckily, the host was quick on his feet. He coughed a few times, then smiled and said, “Ah, you’re so humorous, sir. Hm, let’s change the topic. How long did you spend preparing for this competition?”
It was normal to spend a few years to prepare for such a large-scale event, right?
However, Hong Dali was set on making the host miserable today. “Ah, I didn’t really prepare for this. I just saw that the competition looked fun and decided to participate. Aiyaya, this competition is indeed not bad…”
What the heck. You’re the champion! Champion!
Now you tell me that you only participated because it looked fun. Who are you trying to fool?!
The host could not take it anymore. He had never met someone less cooperative! He then quickly gave the closing remarks. “Thank you, dear guests, for coming. Thank you for your passionate participation in this year’s competition. This year’s Galaxy Super Mecha Wars Shenluo City competition has ended. Thank you for your support. Thank you!”
Then, he teleported away as soon as he could…
…
The entire Galaxy Super Mecha Wars official forum erupted!
This year’s competition was so entertaining! Team Dali’s leader, Hong Dali, instantly killed the previous champion hopeful, Team Annihilation’s leader, Li Tianxing! One move. Only one move was needed to decide the outcome!
That was not all. Hong Dali’s “I want to become the number one prodigal of the entire universe!” line became the hottest topic of discussion.
After all, not everyone had the courage to shout that in front of a whole crowd!
“I’ll be Hong Dali’s number one fan from now on. Don’t @ me. Hong Dali is amazing. Dali Creates Miracles!”
“This competition is amazing. Hahaha. Who would have thought the champion would be someone like Hong Dali? Idol!”
Posts like those flooded the entire forum. There were 362,541,879 posts about Hong Dali now. Tens of millions more were being uploaded every hour!
There were probably more posts about this than posts about Li Tianxing’s Team Annihilation and all past Galaxy Super Mecha Wars champions combined!
Everyone saw how powerful Li Tianxing’s Spirit Emperor was.
Such a strong mecha still could not stand against Hong Dali for even a second. In that case, the previous champions…
They were not good enough when compared to Hong Dali…
…
Hong Dali was very calm about becoming the topic of discussion for everyone in Shenluo City.
He did not care about that, as he was always the center of attention on Earth. He was calm and indifferent to everything here. It was the composure someone could possess only when they had reached a certain level.
There was a simpler word to describe that state: pretentious!
That’s right. Our prodigal Hong Dali was such a pretentious man.
Star Harbor, inside the Dali Armor Shop.
Violent renovations had begun in the Dali Armor Shop. Everything that could be disposed of was disposed of. Lei Yihui, who was brought in for his specialty in squandering, displayed his full intelligence here. Once Hong Dali entered, eight beautiful elf girls came forward. They politely bowed. “Welcome bosses to inspect our work.”
Look at these eight elves. They all had silver-white long hair. Their faces were clean, without the signature wrinkles of the elf race. Their innocent gazes and slender bodies created an undeniable, alluring atmosphere.
“Hm, not bad. Reward them.” Everyone felt better when they were lucky. Two hundred million Galaxy Dollars had been transferred to Hong Dali’s account from the championship prizes. Hong Dali was not a stingy person now. “Reward everyone ten thousand dollars. Keep working hard.”
The eight elves were stunned.
Ten thousand dollars for each person? They would not meet such a generous boss even in a few thousand years, right?
“Where’s pops?” Hong Dali brought Tang Muxin and the rest to the sofa. He took a sip from his drink. “Is he still here?”
“Young Master, you’re here.” Lei Yihui was dressed formally. He ran over the moment he saw Hong Dali. “Mister Gate already left for business. He asked you to inform me of anything you need help with. He’ll settle them for you when he comes back.”
“Pops left?” Hong Dali heard Mister Gate mention something about leaving for business. Since he was not here, Lei Yihui was indeed the second-in-command. Hong Dali nodded. “Then, did Uncle Mihawk leave too?”
“Uncle Mihawk didn’t leave yet. He’s currently training Young Master Fang Han,” Lei Yihui answered.
“Alright, that’s good.” Hong Dali nodded. “Let’s wait here, then. I’ll pass the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass to him when Uncle Mihawk returns.” He took out a small piece of grass from his pocket.
The grass was purple in color. There was a small purple fruit on it, too. It looked tastier than Dali Beans…
Alright, there was too little of this stuff. Otherwise, Hong Dali would not mind eating it as a snack…
Luckily, he did not have to wait long this time. As Hong Dali was dazed and prepared to nap, the door was suddenly opened. Mihawk and Fang Han walked out of the house.
Mihawk said, “You’ve made some good progress, boy. If that little rascal Hong Dali can get the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass, I’ll be able to teach you the swordsmanship included in my ‘Sky Hawk Soaring Stars’ scroll…” As he said that, he finally saw the groggy Hong Dali at the side. He instantly smiled and said, “Hey, little rascal, you’re back. Did you get the stuff?”
“Oh, you’re out Uncle Eagle Eye.” Hong Dali rubbed his eyes and climbed up from Li Nianwei’s lap. He then took the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass out from his space watch. He passed it over, smiled and said, “Are you talking about this?”
The characteristics of the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass were obvious. Uncle Eagle Eye took a brief glance and instantly nodded. “Good job, kid. You actually got it. You must have spent a fortune on it, right?”
Once he heard that it cost a fortune, Fang Han’s heart skipped a beat.
He originally wanted to help Hong Dali. However, he ended up costing Dali a lot of money. He did not feel good about that.
Then, Hong Dali’s words made both of them stunned. “Ah, not really. I won this stuff. I didn’t expect to win the championship too…”
This guy actually won the championship?!
Eagle Eye Mihawk stared with wide eyes, just like those of an eagle. “What you’re saying is that you actually won the championship? Champion? Are you sure?!”
“Of course.” Hong Dali smiled. He was not shy at all. “It wasn’t that hard… I felt it was quite easy. We somehow just won…”
What the heck! Did anyone else just happen to become a champion?!
Fang Han was completely stunned. He stared at Hong Dali with disbelief. “Dali, you did that for me. You went through… so much trouble.”
“It’s nothing.” Hong Dali shook his head. “I have plenty of that stuff. Just use it freely. You’re my brother for life, hehe.”
“Brother for life!” Fang Han’s voice choked. He decided that he would give his life just to master the martial arts!
After all, not everyone was lucky enough to meet a good brother like Hong Dali.
“Alright. I’ll head out and play first since the stuff has been delivered.” Hong Dali did not have much else to do there. He decisively prepared to leave. “Uncle Eagle Eye, you should practice with Big Brother Fang Han first. I’ll be leaving now!”
“Go, you little rascal.” Mihawk chided. “I actually misjudged you this time. Hehe.”
Once Hong Dali left, Mihawk looked at Fang Han and said slowly, “That little rascal Dali treats you so well. You’ll be disrespectful if you progress any slower. Hm, the training intensity will increase tenfold from now on. Are you ready?”
“Of course!” Fang Han’s response was firm and determined.
Once they left the building in Star Harbor, Tang Muxin smiled and asked, “Dali, what should we do next?”
“Need you to ask?” Hong Dali laughed. “To take a look at our businesses, of course. Hahaha!”
