Chapter 406 (2/2)

Of course Ye Lang refused on the spot but Xuan Yuanbing was coincidentally at the conversation and chimed in to say it was a good idea.

Ye Lang was still annoyed at her for agreeing on behalf of himself. He initially wanted to push all the prize-giving duties to Xuan Yuanbing but after she begged him, he had nothing to say. Sigh, it wasn’t too much effort anyway.

“Oh, right, you don’t know. Little Fei is one of today’s finalists!” explained Ye Lanyu. She was sure he didn’t know.

“I see, you’re Miss Explosive after all,” nodded Ye Lang.

“Miss Explosive? Who are you talking to now?” Fei clenched her fists and glared and him the moment she heard the phrase.

“You! Don’t you know? This is what they call you, you’re explosive…” Ye Lang had zero awareness, thinking she didn’t know.

Of course she did. No one knew when this started but they named her Miss Explosive because of her explosive sword-fighting.

“No one would call you a mute if you didn’t speak, hmmph!” scoffed Fei as she leapt back into the field. Anger was brewing and she needed to vent somewhere.

This was rather unfortunate for her opponent, who became her punchbag. Swirls of fire and clouds appeared once again, along with her explosive sword-fighting. The entire arena was filled with smoke and heat by the end of the fight. She won the battle in the end.

However, this victory did not come easily. He looked average but his skills were not. If it weren’t for Fei, who was considered a dark horse, he would’ve been champion.

The award ceremony was surprising for everyone involved. No one understood why Ye Lang was invited as a guest to give out the prizes. He was a representative of one of the academies, he wasn’t even a member of the Sacred Religion.

Was this their way of telling everyone he was protected by the Sacred Religion? That no one was allowed to touch him?

Many people who intended to take advantage of the boy were now more careful. Not only did they have to consider his Ye family and Princess Longji, he now had one more protector-- the Sacred Religion.

It looked like he gained one more powerhouse supporting him every time he arrived at a place. If this continued, who would dare touch him?

Not just in the future, not many would dare touch him now.

And that was how Ye Lang gave out the prizes just like that. He handed her the trophy very casually then ran off…

However, what Ye Lang didn’t expect was that he still had to continue giving out prizes. He still returned no matter how unwilling he was because of who the winners were.

One was the seventh princess and the other was Second Sister. As long as the seventh princess was there, he was there. He couldn’t say no.

Ye Lanyu was now sitting next to Ye Lang, a little frustrated at the outcome of the previous event. She wasn’t eliminated by Second Sister but by the princess!

The seventh princess’ skills were at the same level as her. Their battles depended on their creativity and stamina, they took turns winning and losing every time they fought.

“Little Seven’s chances were slim.” This was Ye Lang’s comment for the event. At least he worded it better than the rest of the audience who decided she was definitely going to lose against Second Sister.

There was indeed a huge gap between their abilities. Second Sister was a lot stronger than the princess, and was a water attribute! There was indeed a very difficult for the princess to win.
