After his announcement, Mo Xuanzun ignored everyone below the stage and turned to the four martial kings together and asked nonchalantly, “You sure you want to join the Count’s Court and be loyal to them?”
“Yes!”
The four cupped their hands and responded without hesitation.
“Did you also want to become elders?” Mo Xuanzun asked again.
They exchanged a look. Naturally the position of elders was higher than guards, which would mean more resources for them. So the four nodded together, “Yes!”
“Alright!” Mo Xuanzun wasn’t surprised by that. He announced, “Six martial kings are specially approved to become the Count’s Court’s elders. Each one of you will receive awards of the first category – one mystical beast as a ride, some mystical water, and three mystical herbs!”
“Thank you, Miss. Thank you, guye.”
The six martial kings stood side by side and bowed and thanked them as their subordinates. They couldn’t mask the happiness on their looks. They had not expected that all of them would receive the top awards.
After he had announced that, Old Man Ying walked up and handed each of them a dimension ring and said, “Your rewards are here. As for your mystical rides, you can choose from azure wolves or white tigers.”
“To First Elder, I would like to have a white tiger!”
“First Elder, I would like to have a azure wolf!”
“White tiger!”
“White tiger!”
“Azure wolf!”
“White tiger!”
All six of them had made their decisions and Old Man Ying handed each of them a mystical beast pouch with their beast inside of them.
The six of them, full of smile, realized that they had made the right decisions.
“Oh my lord! They have received their dimension rings!”
“That’s so generous! The Cheng’s are definitely more generous than the Top 9 Sects!”
“They are already their elders; of course the Cheng’s would treat them nicely!”
“Aiya, if only I am a martial king too, I will definitely join the Cheng’s. They are so nice to their subordinates!”
“I should have gone onto the stage even if I could only become a guard. What was I thinking?”
“The Cheng’s are so incredible! Truly incredible!”
“……”
The crowd below the stage were discussing about this loudly; their eyes filled with envy, regret, and a lot of sighs.
Nobody had expected the Cheng’s to be so generous to have dealt out six of the category one rewards. This clearly demonstrated how rich their resources were. Many of the ones who had hesitated and missed the opportunity regretted deeply.
A missed opportunity was a missed opportunity. No matter how regretful these individuals were, there was nothing they could do about it now!
The ones there were chosen were visibly delighted. They were glad that they were quick enough to make the cut; otherwise, they would be the ones regretting right now.
Mo Xuanzun nodded at them and instructed them to step to one side.
The six of them immediately got behind First Elder.
They were well aware of their status; no matter where they were, they would always follow the proper rules.
“We will still have a number 1 winner of the competition and the reward remain the same for the captain of the guards!” When he got here, Mo Xuanzun turned and looked at the martial spiritualist who demonstrated the top skill and said, “Zhang Yuji!”
“Here!” Zhang Yuji walked up in front of everyone when his name was called.
His body demonstrated solemnity and his look that of righteousness. His eyes looked like two beams of cold lights and his brows were thick and straight. He was, no doubt, a brute. His appearance reminded others of how vicious he was during the fight earlier!
As a martial spiritualist, Zhang Yuji didn’t only have unusual strength, but also a roar that of a lion that could rock heaven and earth for miles. His aura itself was enough to strike down his opponents and make him exude the qi of invincibility.
He had, indeed, turned into an angry lion and took out 7 – 8 martial spiritualists and only retreated when he was out of qi. He was definitely the strongest of all contestants this time.
