Chapter 55: Farewell
Two days ago, in the Mingyan Empire Palace, in order to welcome the coming decisive battle, the imperial royal family saw off a hundred contestants here.
In the hall, after everyone sat down, the fourth prince Luo Chuan said, "Everyone, this trip to Kaiping is not only related to your future cultivation path, but also to the reputation of our country. Here, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of Your Majesty." After that, he looked at the young faces in the hall with a smile, and finally bowed deeply.
Sima Wushuang walked out from behind Zangfeng gently. After looking around curiously, he said, "Why haven't I seen that guy Xunchou and Duanmu Yun, the number one person on the list, I have never seen him yet."
Zangfeng looked at Sima Wushuang with a cold expression, smiled and nodded, and said softly: "That guy Xuncho has left first. As for Duanmu Yun, it has always been very mysterious. I am worried that it will be impossible to see that girl if I don't go to the final."
Hei Lei Shao stood quietly beside Zang Feng, looked at the latter, and said, "But this time it was a bit strange. When we participated in the finals, the female prime minister came to see him off. This time it was actually the fourth prince. In such occasions, it has always been the stage for the female prime minister."
Zangfeng smiled and said, "You can't do anything for the female prime minister in charge of state affairs. But I heard that no one has seen her recently, and she hasn't even participated in the morning court. I guess she has left the palace for something. Why? You can't really fall in love with the female prime minister." After saying that, his eyes moved to Hei Lei Shaoan with some malicious intentions.
Hei Lei Shaoan rolled his eyes, jumped in front of Sima Wushuang, and said, "Brother Sima, in my opinion, you are the one who really likes the female prime minister, why don't you talk?"
Hei Lei Shaoan's laughing expression made Sima Wushuang shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't pull everything on me. You didn't see it when the female prime minister followed Xun Qiu's eyebrows before. Maybe the two of them had already eloped."
Sima Wushuang's voice was not small. As soon as this was said, many people around could hear it. They felt that they seemed a little flamboyant. Sima Wushuang quickly shut up, but still felt a sharp look as sharp as a sharp blade shot towards him.
Sima Wushuang hurried over and found that it was the little girl who had a happy chat with Xuncho at the last party, and it seemed to be named Lin Menghan.
Looking at Sima Wushuang's embarrassed expression, Zangfeng looked at him gloatingly. Hei Lei Shaoan on the side even turned his back to Lin Menghan and gave him a thumbs up, which made Sima Wushuang feel angry.
Afterwards, Luo Chuan said some polite words, and then gradually moved to the topic of today. After looking at everyone, he suddenly stopped and looked at Luo Feng.
His eyes swept over everyone one by one, Luo Feng stood up, and the audience immediately became quiet. The old man then whispered: "This time, since the overall quality of our junior practitioners in Kaiping Empire is very high, so in order to show sincerity, I decided that our Kaiping Empire will send six people to the Kaiping Empire to follow you to Kaiping Empire. In addition to the representatives of the four major families in the capital that were originally decided, I was about to discuss the remaining two with everyone. You can raise any opinions and let us discuss them together." The last sentence was obviously said to many practitioners in the royal family.
For the cultivators who belong to the royal family, because they often go to the palace during this period, these younger cultivators are also familiar with them.
As the royal family, the Luo family is not only because Luo Feng, a powerful man in the Yuanshen realm, is in charge. There are also many younger generations that have emerged over the years. The four sitting in the hall are representatives.
Among these four people, the strongest one is Luo Nian, the uncle of the current emperor Luo Rong. Because of his cultivation, he does not look like a person who is nearly 60 years old. In the current royal family, his strength in the eighth level of soul condensation realm is second only to the national teacher Luo Feng. The remaining three are the royal training instructors belonging to the royal family, Cheng Lang of the seventh level of soul condensation realm; Luo Jinyuan, the chief financial officer of the seventh level of soul condensation realm; and the only woman among these four people is Yan Jingyue, who works in the army. She looks thirty-seven or eight, with a charming charm. She has a flash of cold light in her eyes, and her eyes are extremely sharp, as if she can see through people's hearts.
The four of them looked at each other, and Cheng Lang's eyes flashed with a serious expression. In the past, the Empire would send one person to participate in every competition, and Luo Nian, the strongest, and they never participated. This was mainly because the descendants of the Mingyan Empire had not many powerful figures. Luo Jinyuan, as the chief finance minister, had a heavy business and always looked indifferent. He didn't care much about it. However, Cheng Lang, who had been teaching the royal children to practice carefully, always cared about this matter. This time, his royal disciple finally gave up a Luo Wujian. He had to compete for this opportunity no matter what he said this time and must participate.
Yan Jingyue glanced at Cheng Lang, looked back at Luo Feng and said, "The National Master thought that he had made a decision, so you should tell us directly. This time, the juniors of our empire were also competing for a while, so we naturally wanted to go there, but that was unrealistic. So the National Master would say it directly, so we would not be able to fight and have an unpleasant quarrel."
Cheng Lang said in a deep voice: "Everyone knows the past situation, so we won't talk about it. But this time, I must participate. After so many years, a genius has finally appeared among the royal children. I have to go and see it no matter what. I hope you can understand my heart." After saying that, he looked straight at the national teacher Luo Feng, with the firmness in his eyes clearly revealed.
Luo Feng glanced at Luo Nian and Luo Jinyuan, and saw that both of them looked displeased, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Luo Feng whispered softly: "This time due to the special situation, I feel very embarrassed about it. It was the best thing that everyone could go there, but unfortunately it was impossible. We must keep people here. In addition, monsters on the mainland have been rampant recently and ghosts often appear. Although they have not been discovered in our country, we must pay attention to it carefully. So this time, only half of you four people participated. Considering the situation in the past many times, my plan is to accompany them this time with Cheng Lang and Jingyue. Luo Nian stayed here and always paid attention to the movements of the demons and ghosts. The female prime minister was not in the palace recently, and Jin Yuan also wanted to help Your Majesty manage state affairs, so he naturally couldn't do without his own decision. I hope you two will understand this decision."
As soon as these words were spoken, Cheng Lang was so excited that his whole body trembled slightly, and his eyes revealed an extremely excited expression. Luo Nian, who was opposite, snorted coldly and turned his head away. Luo Jinyuan, who had always been unwilling to care about rookie battles, just sighed lightly and shook his head without saying a word. But the faint loss was clearly revealed. It seemed that they still cared about this martial arts conference. Over the years, this has been the most talented in the Mingyan Empire, so this time it was destined to have special significance.
Many younger practitioners looked at them silently, with different expressions in their eyes. Obviously, these royal figures’ disputes over their peers were affirmation and encouragement to them.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Luo Feng sighed lightly: "This matter was decided like this. One morning, everyone set out to the Kaiping Empire to participate in the final selection of this rookie competition. It is said that there are quite a few outstanding people under the other four major countries this time. Our Mingyan Empire must do our best this time to have hope of standing out among countless strong opponents. In the past, our Mingyan Empire has always been at the end of the five major countries because we always ranked last in every competition. So this time, I carefully look forward to everyone showing their skills and making every effort to compete with them, so that they know that our Mingyan Empire is by no means worse than them. Mingyan's honor and disgrace and your personal future are handed over to you. I hope you all keep it in mind. Okay, go down." Looking at the many young people, the old man's eyes were full of expectations and hope.
The next morning, at the head of the imperial city gate, everyone saw the contestants off. The current emperor Luo Rong was also standing quietly aside, looking at Luo Feng and Luo Nian beside him. In front, nearly one hundred juniors participating in the competition were gradually drifting away from Cheng Lang and Yan Jingyue.
During the whole process, facing his son Luo Wujian, Luo Rong said nothing, but just watched the group of young people go away with encouragement. Luo Wujian had just nodded vigorously before, and his firm eyes no longer needed to say anything. Luo Feng looked at Luo Rong, and his eyes became extremely gentle at this moment, gently, Luo Feng said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the result this time will definitely not disappoint you."
Luo Rong looked at Luo Feng, and at this moment he realized that the ancestors were not only supporting the royal family, but also devoted a lot of effort to the cultivation of the next generation, but they were not revealed. He nodded, and a firm look appeared in Luo Feng's eyes and said in a deep voice: "I understand, ancestor." The eyes of the two intersected, and an inexplicable consensus sublimated in their hearts.
In fact, compared to Cheng Lang's expectations for Luo Wujian, Luo Feng felt relatively less. Although he had not personally guided Luo Wujian's cultivation for a long time, he still knew his strength. With Luo Wujian's cultivation level, it should be no problem to enter the Immortal Palace for cultivation without any accident. But if you really want to show off in the finals of the Chinese New Zealanders, I am afraid that it is still a little lacking.
As for Duanmu Yun, who was ranked first, he was indeed a powerful figure who could sweep his opponent, but her identity was indeed too special. He had never understood why that person's daughter had to go to the Mingyan Empire for such a long time to participate in the competition. For that girl, she should not have the opportunity to practice in the Immortal Palace.
