Chapter 254: Receiving The Rewards At The Palace |
Who would have thought that the leader of the ceremony department would congratulate Fang Yuan first!
“Congratulations, congratulations, Fang Yuan, you have obtained first place in this Gu Dao Convention. This is truly a success of youth, you have reached the peak of your life.”
“This is all thanks to the cultivation of the Yan Shen Empire’s Yan Shen Saint and my master Gu Zhenren, as well as your discerning eyes, that I was able to successfully pass this competition.”
Fang Yuan did not take all the credit for himself. Instead, he included everyone in his speech.
Such an experienced person’s words made the leader of the ceremony department extremely happy.
“Hahaha, Fang Yuan, you sure know how to speak, then I will not hide it from you. The top prize in this Gu Dao Convention is said to be very generous. Have you thought about what you wish to obtain?”
The leader of the ceremony department approached Fang Yuan and said.
“This is the Yan Shen Saint’s decision, I dare not make any guesses!” Fang Yuan quickly said.
These words directly related to the Yan Shen Saint. Under the current feudal dynasty, no one dared to speak carelessly.
“In this imperial palace, if there is any treasure that you fancy, just say it. I can help you to mention it to the Yan Shen Saint, and there is a high chance that you can directly obtain it!”
“It is up to sir to decide.”
Fang Yuan did not relent even though the leader of the ceremony department said so.
......
Everyone came to a very spacious part of the palace. After that, the leader of the ceremony department left to wait for the Yan Shen Saint to arrive.
Even though the Gu Immortal Sect had already won the Gu Dao Convention, Fang Yuan did not see any of Tianxiang Sect’s disciples coming to talk to the Gu Immortal Sect’s disciples. He did not know why they came here.
Was it to let the world see their faces?
After shaking his head, Fang Yuan no longer paid attention to them, and he turned his gaze to the other people present. Fang Yuan immediately realized that there were many people and sect’s cultivation methods here that were worth learning from.
Thus, Fang Yuan happily chatted with them.
Not long after, the leader of the ceremony department announced.
“The Yan Shen Saint has arrived!”
This was somewhat similar to an emperor’s arrival in his previous life.
However, no matter which world it was in, this was clearly a sentence that was equally valid.
The people present immediately stopped talking and stood at their respective positions to wait.
The moment the Yan Shen Saint came out of the passageway, everyone immediately half-knelt and bowed.
But immediately after, a warm air current came from below and helped everyone up. At the same time, the Yan Shen Saint’s voice was heard.
“Hahaha, all of you are geniuses of our Yan Shen Empire. Tomorrow, the development and construction of our Yan Shen Empire will still depend on all of you geniuses. Therefore, there is no need for all of you to be so polite when you see me.”
Thus, everyone quickly thanked Yan Shen Saint.
“This Gu Dao Convention has officially ended yesterday. Now, we will first give out the top ten prizes. Taking into account the different strength rankings of each sect, we will start from number ten!”
As the Yan Shen Saint finished speaking, the leader of the ceremony department beside him immediately stood out and took out a list to read.
“The tenth place in this Gu Dao Convention is the Azure Sect’s Senior Brother Fu Lun...”
As the leader of the ceremony department spoke, Fu Lun from the Azure Sect immediately stood up.
“Alright, someone, bring the prize up!”
Following Yan Shen Saint’s orders, four guards immediately carried a box in.
“This is a treasure that I personally ordered the craftsman to forge for the Azure Sect. Its name is the Azure Dragon Shield!”
“This treasure has infinite uses and is very suitable for the Azure Sect’s combat style. It also contains a trace of the East Sea Black Turtle’s aura. I hope you can get some inspiration from it.”
As soon as Yan Shen Saint finished speaking, Fu Lun from the Azure Sect immediately knelt down and thanked him.
“Many thanks to the Yan Shen Saint for bestowing such a treasure!”
“Good, not bad, not bad!”
Seeing Fu Lun kneeling down decisively, the Yan Shen Saint also replied with satisfaction.
Next, the one ranked ninth...
During the process of the Yan Shen Saint bestowing treasures to everyone, Jiang Yuncheng and Qin Wentian who represented the Qilian Sect and the Liuyun Sect also obtained the results of fourth and fifth respectively.
After obtaining the treasures, they were all extremely excited. Evidently, the treasures bestowed by the Yan Shen Saint had been personally created for each sect.
But one must know that the Gu Dao Convention ended yesterday afternoon. Even after the results of the competition were announced, they were all sent to the imperial palace of the Yan Shen Empire. But since then, less than twenty hours had passed.
In such a short time, the Yan Shen Saint was able to have treasures created that matched all the characteristics of the cultivation methods for the top ten sects. This was enough to show that the Yan Shen Empire had a rich foundation and profound craftsmanship.
While Fang Yuan was shocked. He was also looking forward to it. What kind of rewards would the Yan Shen Saint give to the Gu Immortal Sect?
In this Gu Dao Convention, the second and third place were the other two old sects, the Tianli Sect and Shenjian Sect.
These two sects had not fought against the Gu Immortal Sect before, so Fang Yuan did not know their strength, but their previous rankings were below Jiang Yuncheng and Qin Wentian.
Evidently, after the second half of the third stage of the Gu Dao Convention, because of the defeat of the Qilian Sect and Liuyun Sect, Fang Yuan took away too many points, causing him to rise above the Tianli Sect and Shenjian Sect’s rankings by a large margin.
But even so, they were able to obtain second and third place in the competition. The Yan Shen Saint did not lower their rewards because of their method of winning. The two great sects also obtained treasures that were very compatible with their own characteristics.
Finally, it was the Gu Immortal Sect’s turn, the overall champion of this Gu Dao Convention!
“Next is the overall champion of this Gu Dao Convention, the Gu Immortal Sect, as well as Fang Yuan, who is ranked first among all the participants.”
As the leader of the ceremony department said his final words, the Yan Shen Saint also looked at Gu Immortal Sect’s position, as well as Fang Yuan, who was standing in front of everyone.
“I heard Prime Minister Li Ji Qing mention Fang Yuan a few times before, I did not know that you were such an outstanding talent, I really admire you!”
Yan Shen Saint was not stingy in praising Fang Yuan.
“It is all because of Your Majesty’s training, and because of the sect master Gu Zhenren’s training.”
Fang Yuan said humbly.
“Alright, let’s not talk about these pleasantries. I have prepared a special gift for your Gu Immortal Sect. Someone, bring that thing in!”
