The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 47 — Winner Announcement
Five minutes before the announcement, Lian Huanran and Shen Wenhuan returned.
Lian Haocun immediately bowed his back and saluted Shen Wenhuan, “Greetings to Master.”
So was Tang Yelu but he called Shen Wenhuan with a different call, ‘ Elder Shen’.
Shen Wenhuan waved his hand and replied briefly, “Sit.” Before he himself sat down.
Lian Huanran also placed herself in the middle of Tang Yelu and Lian Haocun.
Tang Yelu whispered to Lian Huanran, “How will it be?”
Shen Wenhuan who heard that interrupted before Lian Huanran had time to answer, “Huanran, explain briefly what happened earlier.”
Lian Huanran reflexively replied, “Iya, Master!”
Then Lian Huanran explained what happened for the two elders to listen to who looked indifferent yet were actually quite curious in their hearts as well as Tang Yelu and Lian Haocun, who were both in love,
“The High Conference decided to investigate this and will compensate the sects whose members were most likely killed. Then the Daffodil Conference will be stopped until the third round.
In other words, the third round became the final round. If anyone disagrees with the rank or ranking they are determined to be, they can challenge the opponent they want on the condition that both sides agree. And if the challenger wins, he will get the ranking of the participant he is fighting against.”
Tang Yelu nodded in understanding.
Then the announcement that has been anticipated by the participants will finally be announced. The host explained various things that are essentially the same as Lian Huanran explained earlier but more detailed like, like,
‘Match between the challenger and the person being challenged will be held in the arena so that the spectators can also see the fun match.’
After the Host had quite a small talk and upset the curious audience, the Host smiled widely and began to say again, More,
“Well now! The winner of the third round will be announced which can now be called the final round... The first rank that must have been expected by all the spectators, Guan Hong from the Jade Wolf Sect!”
Guan Hong smiled arrogantly at the announcement. While the surrounding people immediately praised Guan Hong in hopes of forming a good impression.
“The second ranking is completely unexpected. His name was not even known before this conference. Can the ladies and gentlemen guess? Yes..., this is it, Second rank, Lian Haocun from the Blue Sky Sect!”
Kong Jun who heard the Announcement of the Host gritted his teeth in annoyance.
So was Du Dishi beside him.
“Cih, how to cheat let alone the one he used..”.
Du Dishi's comments while Kong Jun had already turned around, wanting to leave due to the annoyance and anger that were plastered clearly on his face so that Kong Jun did not hear the next rank.
Then the host began to continue again so that it reached the top ten before finally showing the overall ranking of the twelve participants who managed to survive in the Drego Forest.
Wu Shilin ranked fourth, Lian Huanran ranked sixth while Tang Yelu ranked third! Lian Huanran gave a bucket of praise to Tang Yelu,
“Truly unexpected, Senior Martial Brother Tang! You even surpassed Wu Shilin!” Tang Yelu smiled shyly.
Elder Rong first represented to congratulate Lian Haocun who managed to achieve second rank. Then looked at Tang Yelu with a proud look and praised her with short sentences, yet made Tang Yelu feel so happy that she was able to rise above the sky.
Tang Yelu hugged Elder Rong for quite a while with a wide smile plastered on her face. While Shen Wenhuan congratulated Lian Haocun who managed to reach second rank and Lian Huanran who reached sixth rank before starting to advise them gently and subtly,
"Lian Haocun, you've worked so hard. You deserve that. For Lian Huanran, I've watched your hard work to this day, I hope that in the future you will be even better."
Lian Huanran looked at Shen Wenhuan with a moved expression while Lian Haocun's icy expression felt warmer.
“Remember this is still the beginning, but, hah.., you really know how to be flashy. If there is a danger coming because of this, I will not be responsible loh.” Shen Wenhuan said in an elegant joking tone.
Lian Huanran responded cheerfully, “I'm sure Master will definitely always protect us!”
Shen Wenhuan sighed with a smile. Then Elder Hong who was watching the heartwarming scene between teacher and disciple, started to congratulate while giving a short speech. The atmosphere feels very harmonious and feels pleasant.
