C27 (2/2)
”Xu Zongyi, one million three hundred and five thousand.”
”Western Camp Merit Points, 3,190,000. In this trial, Western Camp won.”
Xu Tianyi's expression changed. No one had expected this. How could they have so many contribution points? Furthermore, Xu Zhengdao did not give him any.
”How could that be? We fought nonstop, and only we had so many achievement points. As far as I know, there was nearly half a month without any berserk beasts in the western entrance. Where did the achievement points come from?” Xu Pinghou felt there was something wrong.
”They raised the Spirit Gathering Grass to the green rank and also reserved the potential of the Spirit Gathering Grass. Compared to you, they are a lot stronger.” Xu Zhiyan explained and also wanted to give Xu Tianmu a good beating.
Xu Tianmu's face paled. How could he not be able to match up to Xu Zongyi, when he had entered the summer recuperation center at a very young age?
At the side, Xu Yueshen nodded slightly as she met eyes with Xu Tiancheng, her eyes informing him that this matter was true. He couldn't help but feel indignant: ”Could it be that the 'Water Melting Ceremony' is really that powerful?”
Each person in the western camp will receive one thousand two hundred jin of Purple Bone Strengthening Rice, five hundred stalks of Purple Marrow Washing Grass, as well as ten thousand grain storage points in the Scripture Hall. Because this time you will win by a small margin, the rewards will be increased. Xu Zhiyan was very fair as he slowly said, ”Xu Zongyi, Xu Tianmu, Xu Xindie, you three are in the top three. You will be rewarded. Come up!”
”Yes.” The three of them walked up to the Earth Hall at the same time.
Xu Zhiyan opened one of the treasure boxes and handed it over to Xu Xindie. On top of the box was a precious pearl, which he said, ”This is a cultivation tool, Spirit Gathering Bead. Carrying it on your body will increase the density of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth by ten times, and will also allow people to focus and improve their comprehension of the scriptures and techniques.”
To Xu Xindie, this magical equipment was just perfect.
At the very least, he would be able to progress by leaps and bounds for a period of time before someone from the Primal Chaos Phoenix Clan arrived.
”Thank you, Grand Elder.” Xu Xindie took it and was filled with joy.
”Work hard.” Xu Zhiyan smiled and took out the second box. Inside, there was a fist-sized clod of earth, ”This is the Heavenly Yellow Heartsoil. It has fused with the field you have planted, and it can greatly improve the quality of the earth. It can even easily be planted with high quality plants of the Spirit Condensation Realm.”
Although Xu Tianmu was a little unwilling, the first place belonged to Xu Zongyi. However, this' Heavenly Yellow Heartland 'was truly not bad. It was indeed of great use to him, who was currently in Xia Yang's orphanage.
”Thank you, Grand Elder.” He was extremely respectful to his grandfather.
Xu Zhiyan only nodded his head without a word. He looked towards Xu Zongyi and said, ”This is yours.”
In the box in his hand, there was a ball of fire.
The box containing the flames was also very special. It was sparkling and translucent all over.
”Didn't they say that the champion can make a request to the Patriarch?” Xu Zongyi was astonished. The reason he wanted to be number one was precisely for this.
”Those are just rumors. The top three rewards have already been prepared.” Xu Zhiyan shook his head, and said with a smile, ”Do you still want this?”
”Yes!” Xu Zongyi hurriedly said.
Although he felt somewhat disappointed, he had still obtained first place. The word 'sin' on his face was still eye-catching. To many people, this was a matter of ridicule.
The first place for this trial was actually obtained after the sinner's blood.
”This is the Heart Nurturing Fire Seed. It is a strand of origin fire seed obtained from deep within the Heart Nurturing Valley. Cultivate it well and it will be extremely useful to you in the future.” Xu Zhiyan spoke with a serious tone. It was obvious that this item was extremely precious.
Xu Tianyi's gaze burned with unwillingness. Even though he had no use for it, he was still unwilling to let Xu Zongyi get his hands on it. Fire could make earth.
The Cultivating Heart Fire Seed was more valuable than his Celestial Yellow Heartsoil.
Although Xu Tianmu wanted to see it, he could only watch.
”Thank you, Grand Elder.” Xu Zongyi bowed as he accepted the treasure box. Since this was the first prize, it must be extraordinary.
He wanted to return to the Scripture Hall as soon as possible and check out the wondrous uses of the Heart Nourishing Fire.
”Alright, now that this test is over, everyone should work hard and prepare for the next test.” With that, Xu Zhiyan disappeared from everyone's sight.
The disciples from the various academies were sighing in their hearts.
”I didn't expect him to be number one.”
”It really makes one uncomfortable. Not long ago, he was only a subordinate of a day's worth of work.”
”Be quiet, he's someone from the Scripture Hall now.”
”How could such a servant be so lucky?”
Many of the children felt extremely uncomfortable in their hearts. They felt that it wasn't right for Xu Zongyi to be the champion.
”Haha, congratulations, brother Zong Yi.” Xu Zhengdao laughed out loud. One had to know that the Soothing Heart Fire was a good thing.
”No, thanks to everyone.” Xu Zongyi chuckled. Although it was impossible to erase the words' sin 'on his face, it was still quite good to be able to obtain the Kindling of the Heart. At the moment, he could only take things slowly.
Xu Tiancheng did not say another word as he turned and left. He secretly cursed in his heart, ”All of you, watch on. This will not end like this. Everyone will have to pay the price.”
This time, it was a huge humiliation for him. If he did not find it again, he would not be able to calm down.
Xu Zongyi's fame had spread among his peers in this test.
Many of the disciples were proud of him. At the same time, there were also people who said sourly that he was a lowly servant and that he was just lucky.
”Correct, he is a descendant of a sinner. He will never be able to erase the imprint on his face.”
”Does he still want to make a request to the clan leader to erase the word 'sin' on his face?”
”He's too naïve. Just based on a small training exercise, doesn't he know that his father has committed a crime that cannot be washed clean?”
”After all, he was born of a lowly background. When he grew up in a courtyard, he would listen to the wind and rain. His brain has some problems, so it's normal for him to not understand the rules.”
Xu Duan De, Xu Pinghou, and the rest kept getting people to discredit Xu Zongyi, so their words were harsh.
Xiao E, who was at the side, couldn't bear to listen any longer. She was angry, but the fact that he was a descendant of a sin was on her face and couldn't be wiped away no matter what.
Even if he entered the Scripture Hall, his identity would not change because of this.
Xu Zhengdao also wanted to fly into a rage, but he resisted the urge. As long as he returned to look for his Master, the truth would be revealed. The debt of assassinating Xu Zongyi would come to an end sooner or later.
With his understanding of his master, he knew that those who wanted to harm Xu Zongyi would not be able to escape.
