In the beginning, although Du Feng couldn't see the ranking, he knew that he would definitely be first. However, later on, he deliberately paused for a period of time, just to let Xiao Hei surpass him. After such a long time, he didn't know if Xiao Hei had surpassed him.
If Little Black didn't surpass him, then he would be in first place. And the first place could get the City Lord to help raise the Three Levels of Cultivation.
Of course, Du Feng could also refuse and ask for more things like medicinal pills. But if he did that, he would be suspected by everyone. He could obviously directly raise the Three Levels of Cultivation, but why didn't he agree? Was there some shameful secret?
Now, Du Feng really didn't know if he was still first. Because he had paused for such a long time, Xiao Hei and Silver Thunder Jiutu should have caught up, but he didn't know by how much. If he didn't catch up enough, then he would still be first, and that would be troublesome.
"This time, the first place is from the Yuchi Family …"
Hearing this, Silver Thunder Jiutu shook his head. Since it was from the Yuchi Family, it definitely had nothing to do with him. It could only be Xiao Hei and Du Feng, because they were brought over by Yuchi Jinhai.
"Hei Lin from the Yuchi Family."
Hearing this, Du Feng was also relieved, because Hei Lin was the name that Xiao Hei had given himself. He was a divine beast and didn't have a name, but as a guest, he had a name, so he filled in Hei Lin.
"Congratulations, Brother Hei Lin!"
"Congratulations, Brother Hei Lin!"
Yuchi Jinhai was the first to come forward to congratulate him, and the others followed. After all, to be able to get first place meant that he had killed many enemies and made a great contribution to Sea City. In addition, the first place could also get the City Lord's inheritance, which was equivalent to half a disciple.
"Well done!"
Du Feng also gave Xiao Hei a thumbs up. Sure enough, the goodies should be kept within the family. He gave up the first place just to let Little Black get it. Xiao Hei had eaten some sea beasts during the battle and was currently at the Third Level God Emperor Cultivation Realm. If he were to advance another three levels, he would be at the Sixth Level God Emperor Realm. It was a good thing for his friends that his strength had increased by a large margin.
"Tsk, isn't it all because Big Brother Du let you? What's so great about it?"
Everyone was congratulating Xiao Hei, but Yuchi Jinmei was a little unconvinced. She clearly saw that it was Du Feng who was stronger. But in the end, for some reason, he refused to make a move no matter what. He must have deliberately given the first place to Xiao Hei in order to save his brother's face. What she didn't know was that Du Feng was doing this to keep his secret.
At first, Yuchi Jinmei thought that Xiao Hei would refute. In fact, even the onlookers thought that he would. After all, everyone wanted the glory of being the champion. Perhaps Du Feng had expended too much energy in the beginning and wanted to rest in the later stages.
"Tsk, of course. Brother Du let me win. Bite me if you can."
In the end, Xiao Hei openly admitted that Du Feng let him win. Otherwise, Brother Du would definitely be the champion. This sentence really earned Du Feng a lot of face.
At this moment, the City Lord continued to announce that the second place was Du Feng from Gold City. Only then did everyone realize that he was in Jin City, and not some remote place where even birds wouldn't poop. The conditions in Gold City were also very good. Why did he come to Sea City?
Everyone guessed that it was probably because of his identity as a human cultivator. He wanted more opportunities to develop in Sea City. After all, in Gold City, no matter how capable one was, one had to serve the Primordial Gods. But in Sea City, even if one was not a guest, one could still develop well.
"Next, I will announce something!"
Next, the City Lord announced something. This was a special reward for Du Feng. Although he was not the first in terms of battle merits, he had resolved several crises and saved so many lives. In fact, his contribution was the greatest. Therefore, the City Lord specially allowed him to stay in the temple even if he did not become a guest.
This was a very big power, just like Blacksmith Old Fu's family. He did not need to be anyone's guest to enjoy the rights of the Primordial Gods. Of course, this was only within Sea City. After all, this was announced by the City Lord. If it was announced by the Sacred City, it could be implemented in the entire Divine Realm.
"Thank you, City Lord!"
Du Feng was a sensible person and quickly expressed his gratitude to the City Lord. Of course, it was more comfortable to live and cultivate in his own temple. In this way, he could be neighbors with Xiao Hei. Most importantly, his temple could directly teleport back to Sea City from the outside and enjoy the same treatment as the Primordial Gods. Even Xiao Hei could not do this because he was only a guest.
"Hahaha, I can bask in Brother Du's glory in the future."
Of course, Xiao Hei was also happy for Du Feng. He expressed on the spot that he wanted to leave the Yuchi family and directly become a guest for his brother Du. Naturally, Du Feng could enjoy the treatment of the Primordial Gods, so he should be able to have his own guest. However, Du Feng stopped him. He felt that it was too much to do that.
After all, Yuchi Jinhai had done a lot of work and had not done anything wrong to the brothers. If Xiao Hei contacted the guest right after winning the championship, it would make the Yuchi family lose face and make it difficult for Yuchi Jinhai.
"Alright, then I'll listen to Brother Du."
Xiao Hei was a simple-minded person and did whatever he wanted. Fortunately, there was Du Feng to control him. This time, Du Feng's reward for second place was not bad. He chose two pills and a pair of boots. In theory, the two pills could increase his Cultivation by two levels, but it needed to be digested and absorbed.
He did not want the manual because the Vast Expanse Sword Art was already powerful enough that he could continue practicing it even after reaching the God Emperor level. As for weapons, he already had them. He did not need the armor, which was awkward to wear. In times of danger, it was not bad to use the golden scales to block.
Why did he need that pair of boots? It was because apart from having defensive capabilities, it could also increase one's movement speed. Currently, Du Feng could fly very fast, but his running speed was still slower than flying. Moreover, he mainly relied on his legs to change directions in battle.
Therefore, choosing the boots would increase his speed in battle, which was equivalent to increasing his fighting strength.
As expected, Silver Thunder Jiutu was third place. He received a pill and armor as a reward. The pill was the same as Du Feng's, only one less. The Silver Thunder family did not lack the manual and did not need weapons, so he chose the armor.
