Chapter 502: Deserved

On the jade steps of the Three Origins Hall, the Da Chen Emperor's face was as dark as water, his expression incomparably ugly.

His gaze swept across the envoys from the Barbarian tribes, Da Chu, Wood Spirit Palace, Sumeru Palace, and other forces.

The envoys from various parties all had subtle expressions, half-smiling, but this only made the Da Chen Emperor feel even more uncomfortable.

Beside him, Xu Jin smiled and bowed to the Da Chen Emperor, turned around, and took away the Heavenly Authorities for the two Second-Tier Star Domains and one Third-Tier Star Domain from the hands of the Ministry of Rites official Shi Zhengjia.

"Emperor, luck, just luck!"

Looking at the smiling Xu Jin, the Da Chen Emperor waved his hand in frustration, and someone handed all the star domain coordinates and relevant information jade tablets for these three star domains to Xu Jin.

Reneging on the debt was impossible.

Da Chen still wanted to save face.

Heavenly Yang Star Palace Great Elder Wang Kan stood on the jade steps, looking down at Ying Ge from afar, his heart bleeding.

Among the Fifth-Tier cultivators of the Heavenly Yang Star Palace, although Ming Chang's talent was not the most top-tier, he could absolutely be ranked in the top three.

In terms of combat power, there was basically no difference from the first.

He was considered the core of the next generation of personal disciples of the Heavenly Yang Star Palace, and at the same time, he was a disciple carefully cultivated by Wang Kan himself.

Shameful?

Wang Kan no longer cared.

It was Da Chen's face that was being lost.

What was being lost, however, was his disciple.

At this very moment, what pained his heart was Ming Chang's death!

At the same instant, the Da Chen Emperor's voice transmission had already rung out in Wang Kan's mind.

They had lost two rounds in a row.

The shame was immense.

The losses had also suddenly become enormous.

Four Second-Tier Star Domains, one Third-Tier Star Domain.

The cumulative output of these five star domains already approached or even exceeded the output of two commanderies.

The entire Da Chen possessed only ten commanderies in the present world.

They had to find a way to recoup this.

Otherwise, Da Chen increases, Da Chen decreases—the gap between them would become huge.

While the two were discussing, Ying Ge was still showing off his prowess in the arena!

Having won two rounds and beheaded two people, Ying Ge's confidence was completely restored, and he was thoroughly elated.

His sword-like gaze swept across the spectators on all sides.

*Whoosh! *

The next instant, Ying Ge's sword light shot out, pointing directly at a bearded Da Chen noble in the arena, sneering, "Just now, it was you, wasn't it? You said I was a cripple?

And you said Da Chen had no one, so they sent me to the arena!

Now, you come!

If you have the guts, come up and fight me!

Regardless of win or loss, I will give you a thumbs up!

Do you dare!"

In an instant, Ying Ge's voice spread throughout the entire arena, and everyone's gaze fell upon that bearded Da Chen noble.

The man's face turned red instantly.

And he panicked!

He was not stupid!

The top-tier geniuses had been beheaded by Ying Ge one after another; if he went up, apart from delivering his head, he would have no other role.

Instinctively, this bearded noble shrank his head and hid in the crowd.

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing this, Ying Ge laughed loudly. "You coward, you actually hid!

Are you even a man!

When you were mocking me just now, where did your courage go?"

"It seems that your Da Chen cultivators only have sharp tongues and are only fit to serve women!" Ying Ge laughed!

On the jade steps of the Three Origins Hall, Xu Jin was stunned.

Since when did Ying Ge practice such a sharp tongue?

He had never known!

This was too ruthless!

Ruthless and poisonous!

For the Da Chen cultivators present, it was simply like having their faces stepped into the ground and then being urinated upon!

Even the Da Chen Emperor could not save face!

However, Da Chen cultivators still had blood in their veins!

The next instant, voices rang out one after another.

"Ying, how dare you humiliate our Da Chen; even if I die, I will fight you!"

"Emperor, Feng Long requests to fight!"

"Emperor, He Yi requests to fight!"

Amidst the angry shouts, the bearded noble who had been named by Ying Ge also reacted and jumped out to request to fight, his neck stiff.

He had to jump out.

If he didn't jump out now, his life would be over.

Seeing this, Ying Ge's flying swords darted around wildly.

But the Da Chen Emperor waved his hand and said loudly, "I have seen your courage and blood!

Having you is Da Chen's blessing!

And my good fortune!

However, this Da Chen Ying Ge has condensed a Primal Spirit early due to a fortuitous encounter, and his combat power is extraordinary, already approaching the Seventh Tier; it is not something you can handle.

Our Da Chen men should be brave and loyal, but they should also have wisdom!

Step down; there will be a time for you to serve Da Chen!"

With the Da Chen Emperor's praise, the emotions of the Da Chen subjects, who had been suppressed to the extreme by Ying Ge in the arena, were instantly lifted.

One by one, they cheered "Long live."

It continued for several waves before it finally calmed down.

Even though Xu Jin was a foreign minister, he had to give a thumbs up to the Da Chen Emperor for this scene.

This handling was perfect!

Although his face was still stepped into the ground, he had pulled the morale of the domestic people back up.

This was also the result of an urgent discussion between the Da Chen Emperor and Heavenly Yang Star Palace Great Elder Wang Kan.

There were no personnel left!

There were two other Fifth-Tier geniuses stronger than Ming Chang.

But Ming Chang had been killed by Ying Ge in a one-hit kill.

A one-hit kill!

Not beheaded after a fierce battle.

This kind of strength gap was crushing.

And those two Heavenly Yang Star Palace geniuses who were stronger than Ming Chang were at most half a level higher than Ming Chang.

Sending them in would also be sending them to their deaths!

Then there was no need.

Because of this, the Da Chen Emperor and Heavenly Yang Star Palace Great Elder Wang Kan reached a consensus.

The face of the Fifth Tier had already been lost, so there was no need to sacrifice the lives of geniuses.

They would just recoup it at the Sixth Tier.

"Great Elder, can Sun Sun Fujia achieve an absolute victory among Sixth-Tier experts?" the Da Chen Emperor asked via voice transmission.

"I dare not say absolute victory.

However, as long as Sun Fujia takes action, ninety-nine percent of the Sixth-Tier geniuses in this world will have to bow their heads," Great Elder Wang Kan said.

"Really?" the Da Chen Emperor was very pleasantly surprised.

He knew of Sun Sun Fujia, a peerless genius from the Star Palace, but he did not know exactly how strong he was.

"The Star Lord also said so," Great Elder Wang Kan added.

This sentence instantly gave the Da Chen Emperor a reassurance pill.

It was stable!

And his heart was at ease.

At the Sixth Tier, he could also recoup his losses.

He could choose not to believe the Great Elder, but he could not choose not to believe the Heavenly Yang Star Lord.

The Heavenly Yang Star Lord was the number one person in the present age; that was no boast. His eye for talent was even more unique.

The so-called ninety-nine percent was just modesty, the reason for not speaking too absolutely.

The next instant, the Da Chen Emperor stood up abruptly and shouted, "Bring wine!"

Someone immediately handed over a bowl of wine.

The Da Chen Emperor was dissatisfied. "Bring a jar!"

The next instant, a large jar of wine was sent over. The Da Chen Emperor took it, slapped the mud seal open with one palm, and shouted, "Ying Ge, having suffered such hardships, disabled yet unyielding, practicing diligently without stopping, and finding a cultivation path suitable for yourself, and then actively joining the diplomatic mission to serve your motherland.

On this point, although I am the Lord of Da Chen, I admire you immensely!

Today you have won a great victory over our Da Chen elites.

I am very heartbroken!

However, this jar of wine, I must offer to you!

You are a true man!"

As he shouted, he slapped out with one palm, and the token attached to the wine jar passed directly through the martial arts space formation and landed in front of Ying Ge.

Ying Ge's star power hand phantom appeared, gently supporting the wine jar. "Thank you, Emperor, for the wine!"

The star power hand pushed, the wine jar tilted, and a silver-bright line of wine, like a silver river falling from the sky, fell into Ying Ge's mouth.

He drank directly from the jar!

"Everyone, Da Chen's Ying Ge, disabled yet unyielding, has cultivated such astonishing combat power; he is your role model. In your future cultivation, you should take Ying Ge as an example and cultivate diligently."

Below, there was another chorus of cheers.

The Da Chen Emperor waved his hand generously. "Today, in our Da Chen and Da Chen's Fifth-Tier battle, Da Chen has won by a margin because of this Ying Ge, this anomaly. However, in the combat power of the world's elites, the Sixth Tier is the foundation.

Is there anyone among you willing to take action and meet Da Chen's Sixth-Tier elites?"

From all sides of the arena, requests to fight rang out.

On the surface, these requests to fight were sincere, but on the other hand, they were also being shown by Da Chen to Da Chen and the various forces.

This was the morale of Da Chen!

But for the specific personnel to fight, the Da Chen Emperor and Heavenly Yang Star Palace Great Elder Wang Kan still had to discuss carefully.

The Sixth-Tier battle could not afford to be lost!

"Good wine!"

In the arena, Ying Ge finished drinking, his face slightly red, already carrying a hint of drunkenness.

Xu Jin understood that the Fifth-Tier battle was over.

Even though Ying Ge and Xu Jin still wanted to fight, and regardless of whether it was Ying Ge or Xu Jin, they both had the confidence to behead Da Chen's Sixth-Tier mid-stage experts.

However, Da Chen would certainly not do that.

Using the Sixth Tier to fight the Fifth Tier—if they won, it was meaningless.

If they lost, the face would be lost to the ends of the earth.

"Ying Ge, the martial demonstration is over, come back!"

"Yes."

The next instant, sword light flashed, and Ying Ge flew directly out of the arena, flying instantly in front of Xu Jin. After bowing to the Da Chen Emperor, he bowed to Xu Jin. "Big Brother, I have not failed your mission!"

Hearing this, Xu Jin patted Ying Ge on the shoulder. "As the saying goes, hard work pays off. The glory you have today is the fruit of your years of day and night cultivation.

Today, you deserve this glory!

Come, refine this Heavenly Authority for a Second-Tier Star Domain; from now on, it will belong directly to you, Ying Ge.

As for other rewards, after returning to the country, the Grand Master will naturally have rewards."

Xu Jin directly handed over a Heavenly Authority for a Second-Tier Star Domain.

"Big Brother, this—"

Ying Ge was somewhat surprised, feeling that this reward was too heavy.

A Second-Tier Star Domain!

Even if according to the rules he could only take half the annual revenue, that was not something the current size of the Ying family could compare to.

"This is what you deserve; you are worthy of it!" Xu Jin smiled.

Hearing this, Ying Ge's flying sword landed, and he bowed deeply to Xu Jin. "Ying Ge, thank you, Big Brother, for your cultivation! If not for Big Brother's help, if not for Big Brother's cultivation, how could I have today!"

As he spoke, Ying Ge's eye sockets were already a bit red.

Only those who have died know the beauty of life!

Only after being abandoned by the world does one know how precious a helping hand extended during a time of distress is!

Back then, after becoming disabled, the whole world abandoned him.

Only his father never abandoned him!

Only Big Brother Xu Jin extended a helping hand to him, personally teaching him the Object-Control Star Art, leading to his achievements today!

And today, showing off his prowess in a foreign nation and obtaining a Second-Tier Star Domain, this honor was enough to repay his father, and enough to allow him to directly lift his father to the position of family head.

As for repaying Big Brother Xu Jin, there would be plenty of time in the future; he could only serve him faithfully!

Xu Jin patted Ying Ge's shoulder vigorously; he understood Ying Ge's thoughts without needing to say them.

"Refine it quickly!"

The next instant, Ying Ge took the Heavenly Authority and began to refine it in public.

In an instant, the group of Da Chen nobles looked on with great envy.

Not to mention ordinary nobles, even the Da Chen princes and marquises looked on with envy.

A Second-Tier Star Domain—there was no need to compare the size of their fiefs; there was no comparison.

But even in terms of output, they were far behind.

The key was that after refining the Heavenly Authority for this Second-Tier Star Domain,

in the future, Ying Ge's descendants would be the true kings of this Second-Tier Star Domain!

With this, the matter of the Fifth-Tier martial demonstration was considered over.

The Da Chen Emperor also spoke at the same time. "Official Xu, whether in the present world or the Star River Battlefield, Sixth-Tier cultivators are the true backbone and the true main force.

Sixth-Tier experts are also a critical moment for reflecting a nation's national strength.

Da Chen's diplomatic mission has come this time; I wonder if there are any Sixth-Tier elites who dare to challenge our Da Chen's Sixth-Tier elites."

Originally, according to the Da Chen Emperor's intentions, he would have directly let Sun Sun Fujia enter the arena to challenge, to boost Da Chen's martial name and also behead one or two Da Chen elites to vent his anger.

After a brief exchange between Great Elder Wang Kan and Sun Sun Fujia, who was sitting behind him, Great Elder Wang Kan refused.

There were two reasons: First, Sun Sun Fujia was afraid of trouble; those ordinary cats and dogs were not worth Sun Sun Fujia's action, and Sun Sun Fujia only dealt with the strongest, such as the envoy Xu Jin.

This made the Da Chen Emperor somewhat angry.

He was fighting for Da Chen's national dignity; how could he be so arrogant?

But one sentence from Great Elder Wang Kan extinguished the Da Chen Emperor's fire: Sun Sun Fujia was the personal disciple of the Heavenly Yang Star Lord.

Before Zhang Lin died, the power of the Heavenly Yang Star Palace had little to do with Sun Sun Fujia.

At that time, everyone regarded Zhang Lin as the successor to the Heavenly Yang Star Lord's mantle.

But Zhang Lin mysteriously disappeared in the Seven-Kill Star Domain, and although he appeared later, he disappeared again, and was likely dead.

With this, Sun Sun Fujia became the peerless genius most likely to inherit the Heavenly Yang Star Lord's mantle.

Under such circumstances, even the Da Chen Emperor did not dare to say much.

He was not afraid of Sun Sun Fujia.

But he was afraid that the Heavenly Yang Star Lord would protect his own.

But what truly convinced the Da Chen Emperor was Wang Kan's second reason.

The Sixth-Tier battle had to be won by Da Chen!

Therefore, Sun Sun Fujia could not be sent out too early; otherwise, if Xu Jin saw through the reality and had a targeted tactic, what if he failed?

In such martial demonstration matters, the second hand always had an advantage over the first.

Let Da Chen send someone first!

Then Da Chen would send a targeted challenger.

For such an advantageous matter, the Da Chen Emperor naturally followed the trend.

"Official Xu, I wonder which Sixth-Tier elites of Da Chen have come to our Da Chen to exchange pointers?" the Da Chen Emperor asked.

Xu Jin cursed the Da Chen Emperor for being shameless, letting them go first again.

But Da Chen was the host, so Xu Jin could not say anything.

Xu Jin did not answer directly, but looked at Ning Ning Yuchan.

The next instant, Ning Ning Yuchan stood up instantly, her crutch-sword paused, and she flew to the jade steps, bowed, and said, "Emperor, Da Chen Profound Tiger Army Guard General Ning Ning Yuchan, specifically here to seek pointers from Da Chen's elites!"
