Even though it was a spoil of war, if Lord Yang didn't hand it over to Wang Teng, Wang Teng wouldn't know about it. It all depended on Lord Yang's character.
Lord Yang was a righteous person, which was evident during the banquet.
However, he gave Mo Que to Wang Teng out of goodwill. Wang Teng wouldn't be so stupid to reject it.
"Oh right, there's one more thing," Lord Yang said again.
Wang Teng kept Mo Que and looked at Lord Yang with a confused expression.
"In view of your help to Yang City, we have decided to give you the title of Honorary Baron." Lord Yang's words were shocking.
Tantai Xuan and Xiao Nanfeng were shocked again.
The title of Baron!
The Xingwu Continent's decision was undoubtedly acknowledging Wang Teng's identity.
Ever since the crack in space appeared, no one from Earth had ever received the title of Baron from the Xingwu Continent. This was a special honor and had a great meaning to Earth.
The two of them couldn't help but look at each other. They saw many things in each other's eyes.
Was this a signal from the Xingwu Continent?
The two of them instantly thought of many things, but they couldn't come to a conclusion. This matter needed to be reported. Let the people in charge of diplomacy between the two worlds worry about it.
"Honorary Baron." Wang Teng didn't think too much about it. He was just a student. At most, he had a military rank. However, other than sounding nice, it was useless. He shouldn't be thinking about these things. He should be thinking about what benefits this title of Honorary Baron would bring him. At this moment, he was just a little surprised.
After all, he didn't need to think to know that titles wouldn't be given to people casually. He felt that he didn't do anything, so why did the Xingwu Continent want to give him a title?
"The title of Honorary Baron means that you have no land and no official position. It's just a title," Lord Yang explained with a smile.
"Just a title? Then … what's the use of it? "Wang Teng was confused.
He was a little disappointed. He thought that the other world would give him a small territory or something, and let him live the life of a rich man in the other world.
"There are still many uses. For example, with this title, no matter which city you go to in the future, the locals won't treat you as an outsider. Instead, they will treat you as a VIP. Also, don't many people from Earth Star do business with us? If you're interested, you can enjoy many benefits …" Lord Yang explained patiently.
"Sounds good." Wang Teng muttered in his heart. He laughed and said, "Thank you very much."
"Hahaha, you brat!" Lord Yang laughed. He took out an item and passed it to Wang Teng. "This is the Baron's badge. Since it's an emergency, I'll skip the formalities. Take this and you'll be an honorary baron of the Empire."
"Is this badge a Baron?" Wang Teng sized up the badge. It was golden in color and had a picture of a bird. It probably represented the title of a Baron. He asked curiously, "If it's taken by someone else, can't they impersonate a Baron?"
"Whoever dares to do this is courting death. This badge has a special identification method. You just need to drip your blood on it, and it will be bound to your identity. No one will be able to impersonate you," Lord Yang said.
"So convenient!" Wang Teng did as he was told. He dripped a drop of blood on the surface of the badge.
A golden light flashed, and the badge returned to its original state. The blood stain disappeared.
"I need to drip my blood all the time in the other world. It's a waste of blood." Wang Teng muttered in his heart. He kept the badge in his interspatial ring with a smile on his face.
Xiao Nanfeng was a little jealous. The Divine Weapon Mo Que, and now he was an honorary baron. Even he couldn't take these things lightly.
What did Wang Teng do to deserve such recognition from the people of the other world?
On the other hand, Tantai Xuan was very happy. She was proud of her disciple.
Then, Wang Teng bade farewell to Dan Taixuan and the others and left Lord Yang Residence.
Lord Yang and Shen Tuxiong sent them to the door.
Shen Tuxiong asked, "Why are the higher-ups willing to give a Baron to someone from Earth Star? Moreover, he's a young man with no status. "
"You're wrong. He's not someone without status." Lord Yang smiled meaningfully.
"Oh, please elaborate," Shen Tuxiong said.
"Firstly, he's the disciple of the Black Sparrow General. Secondly, he's Göring's disciple. These identities have never happened before. Secondly, he helped Sun City overcome this crisis. Thirdly, his other identities aren't sensitive. These three are indispensable," Lord Yang said.
Shen Tuxiong's eyes flickered. After a while, he said, "The Empire wants to use this as an opportunity to improve our relationship with Earth Star."
"That's right. Since the situation has reached this stage, it's a win-win situation. There's no turning back," Lord Yang said with a deep gaze.
…
Wang Teng didn't know what the two of them were talking about. It wasn't his place to worry about where the world would end up.
"The final exam is coming soon. Go back and prepare." Tantai Xuan said, "After the final exam, it'll be the National Number One Martial Arts Competition. I'll go back then."
"Okay." Wang Teng nodded.
The final exam was half a month earlier than in his previous life. There was plenty of time for the martial arts competition.
Tantai Xuan and Xiao Nanfeng still had to stay in Sun City for a few days. Wang Teng was preparing to return to Earth Star.
"Teacher, I'm preparing to go back."
Göring had already returned to his residence in the Runes. Wang Teng called Su Lingxuan over to have one last meal with them.
Hearing Wang Teng's words, Göring raised his head and smiled. "Go ahead. I knew you were preparing to leave. Come back and visit me when you're free."
"I will." Wang Teng nodded.
Even though Su Lingxuan always complained that Wang Teng bullied her, she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss when faced with this situation.
After the meal, Wang Teng bid farewell to Göring. Su Lingxuan sent him to the door.
"Don't send me off. Go back and take good care of Teacher," Wang Teng said as he turned around.
"I know, I know. Hurry up and go." Su Lingxuan waved her hand impatiently.
"You little brat!" Wang Teng shook his head and turned to leave.
Su Lingxuan looked at his back, and the impatience on her face gradually disappeared. She thought to herself, Senior Brother, have a safe trip!
When Wang Teng arrived at the floating airship dock, he saw an unexpected person.
"Why are you here?" he asked in surprise when he saw Li Rongxue's pretty face.
"We're friends. I'll send you off," Li Rongxue said with a smile.
"Thank you," Wang Teng said.
"You're treating me like an outsider. Here, I bought you a ticket." Li Rongxue handed a ticket to Wang Teng.
"Then I won't say any more thanks." Wang Teng took it with a smile and waved his hand. "I'm leaving. We'll meet again if fate wills it."
Li Rongxue was a little disappointed as she watched the airship take off. The maid beside her said, "Princess, why didn't you ask him to stay?"
"What status do I have to ask him to stay? Besides, his world is destined not to be in this city, "Li Rongxue said with a smile.
…
Wang Teng sat on the edge of the deck of the airship and looked at the stars in the sky. The Spirit Flame Underworld Crow slowly descended. Ever since Wang Teng came to the Spirit Flame Underworld Crow, it had grown to one meter in size and reached two stars. It was becoming more and more like a ferocious bird, like its parents.
"We're going home!" Wang Teng said as he touched its metal-like feathers.
When they came, it was a man and a crow. When they left, it was also a man and a crow …
