One hundred and eighty-three thousand Military Contributions
"What's going on? Could it be a mistake? What does this Reward Ceremony have to do with Luo Zheng and Yan Long? "
"These two are only disciples of the Heavenly Leopard Sect. Why would you accept the reward too?"
"That's right. When we eliminated the South Sea Sword Sect, the Five Deities Army sent out disciples of the Celestial Phenomenon Serpent Army. What does it have to do with these two ants, Luo Zheng and Yan Long? "
The disciples of the Five Deities Mountains were confused.
This award ceremony didn't mean that anyone who had made military contributions could accept the award. Only those who had made great contributions were qualified to do so.
Xue Sha, Bai Yixian, and the others were furious too. They were supposed to be the first to receive the reward, but Luo Zheng had stolen the limelight!
"This Luo Zheng, he actually performed a great service without a word! How dare he steal my limelight? Damn it! "
Wu Tianji's eyes flickered coldly when he heard that the first person to receive the reward was Luo Zheng. The hatred in his heart grew stronger.
However, the gloominess on his face only lasted for a brief moment before he said with a hollow laugh, "Don't worry about it. Even though being the first to receive the reward will bring them some glory, it also means that they didn't make a great contribution. Otherwise, the reward would only be given at the end!"
"That's right, let him enjoy the limelight for a while. Let's see how long he can be happy for!"
"Two disciples of the Heavenly Leopard Sect, what kind of contribution can they make? I think they'll at most be promoted to disciples of the Heavenly Tiger Sect!"
When the crowd heard this, they all echoed in agreement.
"You two have made a great contribution, yet you didn't say anything!"
Yu Tinglan wore a joyful expression and rolled his eyes at Luo Zheng.
Even though he knew that being the first to receive the reward would not bring him much glory, he was still happy for Luo Zheng from the bottom of his heart.
Either way, Luo Zheng now had some capital after making a great contribution. Wu Tianji did not dare to overdo it.
Huo Jinghao and Qin Song were also overjoyed, as if they had been rewarded.
Luo Zheng smiled faintly, thanked the three, and stood up.
However, the other officials, generals, and disciples of the Five Saints Army all looked at him with indifference and disapproval.
"Hmph, what's there to be proud of?"
"He's just a kid from a humble family. He thinks he's infallible just because he made a small contribution."
"When Young Master Tianji receives the title of Young Marquis, let's see if he can still smile!"
In fact, there were even more sneers and mockery.
"When did I become complacent? These people are really … "
Luo Zheng rubbed his nose and walked towards the high platform. Hearing the sounds coming from all around, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Luo Zheng, Junior Brother Yan Long, congratulations!"
When they passed by the area where the Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants were located, only Shen Tieyi stood up as he spoke.
"Thank you, Instructor Shen."
Luo Zheng faintly smiled. Without another word, he and Yan Long ascended the high platform.
"That handsome young man is Luo Zheng. He's so mighty!"
"I wonder what kind of contribution he made this time. He's from a humble family and isn't even seventeen years old, but he actually received the chance to be rewarded!"
"Luo Zheng is the glory of our humble family. He might even become a Marquis in the future, a Commoner Marquis!"
The crowd on the slanted platform cheered when they saw Luo Zheng walk onto the high platform.
In the Hundred Battles Dynasty, a humble family had no status and no cultivation resources. Wanting to stand out was simply unimaginable, as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
No matter how high one's martial talent was, they could only join the army and slowly accumulate military merits. Without several decades of service, it would be difficult to make a name for themselves.
In just two short years, Luo Zheng's name had spread throughout the world, suppressing all the geniuses of the noble families until they couldn't raise their heads.
"Hmph, a bunch of lowly commoners. Just a small contribution and they're already so happy!"
"These people from humble families are really laughable."
"Wait a moment, when Young Master Tianji becomes a Marquis, he'll truly be in the limelight!"
Some of the noble families on the grandstand sneered with disdain.
"Luo Zheng and Yan Long have found out the location of the second ranked Specter Pirates of the Southern Demon Sea, the Specter Pirates' lair. They have made a great contribution by eliminating the Specter Pirates and opening up the Southern Demon Sea's trade route. Each of them received a total of 183,000 military merits! "
"Luo Zheng is promoted to a Celestial Phenomenon disciple!"
"Yan Long is promoted to a Celestial Phenomenon disciple!"
As soon as the announcement was announced, waves of exclamations broke out in the Million People Square.
"He actually rose two levels in a row, from a Heavenly Leopard disciple to a Celestial Phenomenon disciple!"
"183,000 military merits, if exchanged for Yuan Dan, it's enough to bury someone to death!"
"He actually obtained so many military merits, he's not far from becoming a Flood Dragon disciple!"
"Luo Zheng has become a Celestial Phenomenon disciple, Wu Tianji is just a Heavenly Tiger disciple. Who is the number one genius of the Hundred Battles Dynasty? There's no need to say anymore!"
At this moment, listening to the voices from the grandstand, Wu Tianji's incomparably handsome face became uglier than a corpse.
