The Show Has Just Begun
"Damn it! Luo Zheng, you despicable commoner! How dare you stand above me! I'm going to die, I'm going to make you die a horrible death! "
Wu Tianji's heart was roaring madly.
Wu Tianji knew that he was going to be conferred the title of Marquis soon. However, Luo Zheng actually suppressed him at this moment. No matter how short the time was, he still couldn't tolerate it.
Luo Zheng and Yan Long both received their rewards. Not only did they become Celestial Phenomenon disciples, but they also received a promotion from a fourth-grade general to a first-grade general!
Although being promoted by one rank would only increase the salary, it was still a great honor!
The spectators on both sides burst into cheers. The commoners were happy for Luo Zheng.
On the other hand, Yan Long also received praise from some of the rich and powerful clans.
"Boss, if you didn't give me half of your contribution points, you'd be a Heavenly Serpent disciple now."
Yan Long looked at Luo Zheng with red eyes and said sincerely.
"Alright, don't be so wishy-washy. Now is not the time to be happy. Some people hate us so much that they want to eat us alive."
Luo Zheng glanced at Wu Tianji who was below the stage. He smiled faintly when he saw the resentful gaze of Wu Tianji.
The two of them walked down the stage and did not stay in the area for Celestial Phenomenon disciples. Instead, they walked towards Yu Tinglan and the others and sat down.
"Hmph, calling me big sister sounds nice. You didn't even tell me anything!"
Yu Tinglan glared at Luo Zheng and said angrily, "You've already jumped two levels and became a Celestial Phenomenon disciple. If you jump another two levels, wouldn't you be conferred the title of Marquis?"
"Big Sister Yu is really smart. Theoretically speaking, that's the case."
Luo Zheng smiled indifferently. He knew that Yu Tinglan was concerned about him.
"Hmph, glib tongue, daydreaming!" Yu Tinglan said.
Next, Qin Song, Huo Jinghao and the others congratulated Yan Long.
Yan Long did not dare to claim the credit and quickly explained it.
Only now did everyone understand that Luo Zheng had given one of his merits to Yan Long.
"Brother Luo, perhaps only you are capable of doing such a thing!"
Both Huo Jinghao and Qin Song were dumbfounded, smiling bitterly.
Upon hearing this news, the surrounding people who had been mocking and ridiculing them were all extremely jealous.
One hundred and eighty-three thousand military merits, if exchanged for medicinal pills from the Military Merit Hall and sold, it would be worth at least twenty-five billion taels of gold!
Even many first-rate families did not have such astonishing wealth!
"No wonder Yan Long and the others are so loyal to Luo Zheng!"
"This Luo Zheng is obviously a poor youngster, but he is actually so generous!"
Some people from wealthy families were also speechless. They couldn't imagine who could be so generous as to give away such a shocking amount of wealth.
Many people looked at Luo Zheng with eyes full of shock. Their thoughts couldn't help but change.
This news was too shocking. Nearly 200,000 military points were given away to someone else. This was simply unheard of in the Hundred Battles Dynasty!
The news quickly spread.
Not only the disciples of the Five Saints Army, but also the generals and officials of the imperial court. They all found it unbelievable.
When Bai Yixian, Xue Sha and the others heard the news, their faces stiffened.
At this moment, their hearts were filled with all kinds of feelings, some of which were indescribable.
Before this, when the War Emperor issued an order to conscript all the Celestial State disciples and Sky Dragon disciples to participate in the annihilation of the South Sea Sword Sect, this was a rare opportunity.
Everyone knew that this kind of opportunity to contribute was hard to come by. Some of the disciples with deep heritage returned to their families and took out their treasures.
As for Xue Sha and Bai Yixian, they were unable to borrow treasures from their families, so they thought of borrowing from Wu Tianji. In the end, although Wu Tianji agreed, he proposed to give them half of the military merits.
Although Xue Sha and the others felt that it was reasonable at that time, compared to Luo Zheng, it was far worse.
Wu Tianji also guessed their thoughts from their faces. In his heart, he hated Luo Zheng to the bone!
After Luo Zheng and Yan Long were in the limelight.
Among Bai Yixian, Xue Sha and the rest of Wu Tianji's followers, there were also five who were promoted to Sky Dragon disciples.
However, when they thought about how half of the military merits that they risked their lives for would go to Wu Tianji, no matter how happy they were, it was still limited.
"What's wrong? I gave you half of the military merits. Do you feel dissatisfied? Without that treasure of mine, did you think that you could kill an Essence Casting powerhouse and make a great contribution? "
Wu Tianji saw the unhappy expression on everyone's faces and immediately sneered. "If you think that Luo Zheng is generous, then follow him and see how many benefits he can give you!"
When everyone heard this, their faces stiffened. They were angry in their hearts, but they could only endure it.
Wu Tianji was about to be conferred the title of Marquis. The Wu family's power was too great. Who would dare to offend him at this time?
Following that, many of the Heavenly Serpent Dragon's disciples also received rewards.
The Sky Dragon disciples could only be conferred the title of Marquis if they took another step forward. However, this time, no one could do it. It was too difficult to be conferred the title of Marquis!
To be conferred the title of Marquis, it did not say how many military merits one needed to accumulate. However, it had to be at least several times more than the Sky Dragon disciples. Only those with more than a million military merits would have a chance.
