Chapter 1266

Then he walked off the stage.

The host handed the microphone to Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi's most hated segment had come again.

Still, he delivered his acceptance speech in the same style as last time at the academy, after winning first place.

That was — thanking everyone.

First, he thanked the Breaking World Army for taking him in, and the Breaking World Army's high command for their excellent leadership…

And so on, a whole string of lavish praise.

Although it was a bit exaggerated, when you thought about it carefully, what he said was actually true.

The Breaking World Army's high command listened and nodded repeatedly.

Lu Zhan kept clapping beside him, which prompted the entire audience to clap as well.

Flattery like this, as long as it isn't done too awkwardly, actually works pretty well.

Especially in a public occasion like this.

Then he thanked the Zhao family for raising him, and praised the unity of Brook Village.

The first half was true — he meant it sincerely.

But the second half was complete nonsense.

Still, saying it on an occasion like this had its own particular significance.

At the very least, it would benefit the entire Brook Squad.

However, the expressions on the Xiao family and Qi family members both looked a bit odd.

But they weren't fools; they knew Zhao Chi saying this publicly had excellent promotional value.

Right after that.

He thanked Li Ruanyu for her teaching, and Lu Yi for her help.

Li Ruanyu smiled gracefully, while Lu Yi was pleasantly surprised.

Zhao Chi always repaid his debts of gratitude.

Now he was the Best Newcomer, and he could tell that Li Ruanyu was again a veteran member of the Breaking World Army.

Mentioning her might spare Lu Yi some unnecessary minor troubles.

Still, the Lu family was also in the Breaking World Army, organized as a small squad, so Lu Yi had them to rely on too.

But wouldn't an extra layer of insurance be even better?

Correspondingly, he also mentioned Yang Xiong's constant support for him.

Yang Xiong kept giggling foolishly.

Then he also took the opportunity to praise Tieshan and Mo Ming for their help and guidance.

Tieshan laughed heartily.

Mo Ming, on the other hand, said in a delicate, girlish voice: "I've always had my eye on you~"

Finally, of course, he didn't forget to praise his Su Qin.

The words he used to praise Su Qin were rather mushy.

He practically described her as so perfect she couldn't possibly be any more perfect.

Even a fairy wasn't as wonderful as her.

Su Qin had been listening with great interest at first, but grew redder and redder in the face the more she heard.

Zhao Chi didn't actually say anything over the top — after all, on an occasion like this, he certainly wouldn't say anything inappropriate.

But listening to it just felt very mushy.

It was practically no different from a public confession.

Although Su Qin was clearly overjoyed hearing it, she couldn't help blushing to her ears and didn't dare lift her head.

But it made Xiang Yuan beside her green with envy: "Su Qin, you're so happy."

Su Qin covered her burning-hot cheeks and nodded gently.

Although Zhao Chi spoke for less than ten minutes, he managed to praise everyone worth praising.

It counted as a passable acceptance speech.

Accompanied by applause, Zhao Chi quickly returned to his seat.

The host continued to announce the subsequent awardees.
