On the other hand, the other contestants were not so happy. Everyone could see that Xiuxiu had a breakthrough in the battle just now. She had entered a whole new level, and the two of them were one. How were they going to fight the rest of the competition?
Even Qi Tenryu could not help but look stunned. He paid more attention to Bai Xiuxiu. Previously, Xiuxiu's brilliance could be said to have been completely overshadowed by Lan Xuanyu. Now, she seemed to have started to stand out in the finals. This was something that many people did not expect. She used her performance to tell everyone that she was not just Lan's vassal, but "her" true partner.
The most excited person was naturally Huang Daoqi. He never expected Xiuxiu to be able to display such combat strength. This was the daughter that he had first acknowledged. She truly belonged to the royal family! He was now regretting acknowledging her as his daughter. If he had not acknowledged her as his daughter, it would have been an excellent choice for his son to marry her.
As for Lan, he was now having a headache. After entering the final stage, there were already several City Lords who had expressed their requests for marriage to him, both overtly and covertly.
Lan had already signed a thousand-year contract with the family. If she really wanted to marry him, he, as the clan leader, had to agree. Of course, it also depended on Lan herself. Of course, he was absolutely unwilling to let Lan marry him. However, Lan's performance was getting stronger and stronger. She even attracted the attention of many Dragon Knights at the same time. Such a woman was no longer a match for his son. The Dragon Knights would also not agree to let Lan marry Huang Yuan-lang, who had no future in the Dragon race. As a female of the Dragon race, Lan had such an excellent bloodline and talent. Her future offspring would definitely be the hope of the Dragon race. Therefore, her marriage wasn't going to be that easy.
Huang Yuan-lang shook his head gently. No matter what happened to Lan in the future, at least the thousand-year contract had been signed. With the thousand-year contract, she would always be a member of the royal family. As for the marriage, let's talk about it later.
When they returned to the waiting area outside the competition venue, Lan Xuanyu pulled Bai Xiuxiu to sit down on the spot. Their palms touched each other again and they absorbed the Dragon Energy together. Strike while the iron is hot and help Bai Xiuxiu consolidate the results of her recent breakthrough.
Tenryu praised in his heart and couldn't help showing a smile on his face. Naturally, he could tell that Bai Xiuxiu's breakthrough had a lot to do with Lan. Without Lan's support, she wouldn't have been able to achieve such a breakthrough. The relationship between these two women could be seen from the fusion skill they displayed in the previous battle. They were practically one entity. If that was the case …
Thinking of this, Qi Tenryu's heartbeat quickened.
The match continued. The duration of this match was much shorter than the previous one, and it was also much more exciting. But for the other contestants, the competition for the remaining spots was just as intense. The knockout round itself was a process of reaching the heavens in a single step or being eliminated in an instant.
The last few matches were all in a stalemate. To be able to enter the top 15, how could they be weak? In the end, when the top eight were all decided, it was already two hours later.
"The eliminated contestants leave. The top eight will stay," the referee announced in a deep voice.
Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, who were cultivating, opened their eyes. The two of them looked at each other and immediately thought of something. They both stood up.
According to the rules of the Dragon Rising Competition, before the top eight were decided, all the previous matches also had rankings. But that was only the meaning of the rankings. It was to prove that participating in the Dragon Rising Competition and below the God-tier Dragon race ranking would help their status in the clan. But there was nothing else.
But it was different for the top eight Dragon race. Starting from the top eight, there would be rewards. There would be rewards for every round. The top eight would receive one, the top four would receive one, the top two would receive one, and the final champion would receive additional rewards.
The Tenryu Alliance had decided that only the top eight would receive rewards in the Dragon Rising Competition, not because they were stingy. As members of the Dragon race, they would receive the most resources from the Tenryu Star. Ordinary things would not catch anyone's eye. It was better to focus on rewarding the most outstanding talents and give them heavy rewards, helping them advance more easily. That was why there was a rule that the top eight would receive rewards.
The Dragon Power pillars were extinguished one by one. Under the leadership of the seven Dragon Knights, hundreds of God-tier Dragon race powerhouses slowly stepped forward.
Lan Xuanyu and the rest of the nine stood in a row under the guidance of the referee. They stood side by side.
The second-ranked Dragon Knight in the lead approached them and smiled. "You have performed well today and entered the top eight of the Dragon Rising Competition. There will be rewards." As he spoke, he waved his hand. Eight rays of light shot towards eight of the nine people, except for Bai Xiuxiu. She and Lan Xuanyu were one body. They could only be considered as one.
Everyone hurriedly raised their hands to catch it. Everyone's reward was the same.
It was a jade box with a diameter of one foot and a thickness of about ten centimeters. The jade box was warm and smooth to the touch. It was indescribably comfortable. It seemed soft but was hard, but it was the best jade.
Lan Xuanyu held it in his hand and could not help but feel surprised. Although he did not know what was inside the jade box, judging from the jade box itself, it was already a treasure. More importantly, he had seen similar jade boxes before! It was the kind that Huang Daoqi had given them to store the Dragon Marrow. However, this jade box was much larger than the one Huang Daoqi had given them. Moreover, the quality of the jade was much better. It was white and flawless, as smooth as cream.
As expected of a reward given directly by the Alliance. It could be considered a heavy reward. Could it be that it was filled with Dragon Marrow?
Naturally, they could not open the jade box to take a look. Under the signal of the second-ranked Dragon Knight, the nine of them thanked him respectfully and then left the Rising Dragon Arena, returning to their respective residences.
After returning to his residence, Lan Xuanyu opened the jade box immediately. After opening it, he could not help but gasp.
The rich fluctuation of Dragon Qi made the jade box emit a soft dragon roar. The inside of the jade box was filled with a pale yellow paste. It was indeed a box of Dragon Marrow, a whole box! The jade box was huge, and the Dragon Marrow inside was slightly more than the total amount sent by the Imperial family. Moreover, the quality of the Dragon Marrow was obviously excellent.
Although the Dragon Marrow was not very useful to Lan Xuanyu, it was extremely helpful to Bai Xiuxiu's cultivation. Moreover, who would complain about having too much of this stuff? Among the Trayastrimsa Wings, there were many who had the bloodline of the Dragon race. They could all be used. Lan Xuanyu could use it himself. Although his effect was not as good as Bai Xiuxiu's, it was still effective. He had been reluctant to use it before, so he had given it all to Bai Xiuxiu.
"You're very rich!" Bai Xiuxiu could not help but exclaim, "There's so much Dragon Marrow. It's enough for me to use for a few months. Save a little, it should be enough for a year. "
Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, "In a year, you should have already succeeded in cultivating your Dragon Marrow. Other Dragon race members don't cultivate as extravagantly as us. "
Bai Xiuxiu said, "That's not necessarily true. I think that Qi Tenryu and the others must have used a lot more resources than us. The only thing they lack is your bloodline of the Dragon Gods. "
Lan Xuanyu laughed and said, "Then why don't you trade with him? I think he'll be very willing."
"You wish." Bai Xiuxiu rolled her eyes at him. "You're mine, and everything you have is mine. Why should I trade with others? Don't tell me you're used to being a woman? "
Looking at her suspicious expression, although Lan Xuanyu knew that she was doing it on purpose, he could not help but feel angry. He hugged her waist and said fiercely, "Do you want to try?"
Bai Xiuxiu giggled and said, "I was wrong. There's no need to try. I believe you. I've always believed in my men. "
Lan Xuanyu's heart warmed, and he said in a low voice, "But I'm not your man yet!"
Bai Xiuxiu humphed and said, "Do you want me to freeze you? You haven't even confessed to me during the Sea God's Fated Blind Date. Don't even think about it. "
