"First is the ranking of the Martial Warriors. First place is Luo … tenth place is Wu Tianqi … eleventh place is Qiu Li … twentieth place is …
When he heard Qiu Li's name, Luo Ping was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that not only did she come back to life in the revival round, but she also got eleventh place. It seemed that she wasn't simple at all.
"Next is the ranking of the Great Martial Warriors. First place is … second place is Lu Feng … fourth place is Luo Yunfei … fifth place is Luo Yunfeng … eighth place is Liu Wenyuan … twentieth place is …"
Because the warriors had to raise their hands when their names were read, Luo Ping immediately recognized that the second place Lu Feng was the uncle who wanted to betroth his daughter to Chen Da.
"Next is the ranking of the Martial Masters. First place is … third place is Zhao Jiangbo … twentieth place is Luo Yuntian."
When he read Luo Yuntian's name, Governor Su was obviously surprised. Luo Yuntian, on the other hand, almost laughed out loud. It seemed that Governor Su didn't even dream that he would get the qualifications to advance. He must have thought of many things in his heart.
"Finally is the ranking of the Great Martial Masters … Alright, the ranking list is finished. Congratulations to all the participants who advanced to the top 20. Some of you were able to achieve such results because you were obsessed with martial arts and wanted to improve yourself through battle. Some of you were able to achieve such results because you had a promise and wanted to fulfill your wishes. Regardless of the reason, your goals can now be realized."
After Governor Su finished speaking, he intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Luo Yuntian, revealing a meaningful expression. Then, he turned around and returned to his seat.
Luo Yuntian was not an idiot. When he heard Governor Su's words and saw the look in his eyes, he almost jumped up because Governor Su had finally approved of his marriage with Su Hui.
At this moment, Luo Ping, Zhao Jiangbo, and the others also looked at him with congratulatory gazes and smiles. He only had to wait for the disbandment before he could cheer to his heart's content.
When Manager Li saw that Governor Su had returned to his seat, he once again returned to the center of the stands and said loudly, "The top 20 participants of this county's challenge tournament, in addition to being qualified to participate in the higher level state's Dragon Tiger Tournament, will also receive corresponding prizes according to their rankings.
"Now, I will announce the contents of the rewards. The top three martial artists of each rank will each receive a First-ranked Offensive Weapon, a First-ranked Defensive Weapon, a First-ranked Movement Skill, and three bottles of Hundred Herbs Liquid."
"What? There's even a 'Hundred Herbs Liquid'. If I had known earlier that there would be such a reward, I would have fought my way into the top 20 even if it meant risking my life. "
In the crowd of onlookers, a contestant who had already lost said in shock and annoyance.
"Hehe, Second Brother Wang, stop bragging. With your strength as a beginner Martial Master, you won't be able to enter the top 20 no matter how hard you try. It's best if you stop dreaming. However, what is this' Hundred Herbs Essence '? "
A middle-aged man beside Wang Laoer first looked at him with disdain before asking about the Hundred Herbs Liquid.
"Look at your country bumpkin face. You don't even know about the 'Hundred Herbs Liquid' and you still dare to laugh at me. I'm too lazy to even tell you."
Wang Laoer turned his face away after he finished speaking, as if he didn't want to talk to him.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face was filled with anger. However, he wasn't proficient in martial arts and only had the strength of a late stage Great Martial Warrior. He didn't dare to teach him a lesson and could only glare at him a few times before turning his face away.
At the same time, below the stands, where Luo Ping and the others were gathered, there were also many warriors asking the people around them about the Hundred Herbs Essence. These warriors were mostly from the lower cities and towns, so they had never heard of this liquid before, which was why they were asking such questions.
As for those like Luo Ping who already knew about the origin and effects of this liquid, they were extremely shocked.
Manager Li could clearly see the situation below the stage and explained, "The 'Hundred Herbs Liquid' is a secret elixir made by the 'Medicine King House' of the 'City of the Medicine King'. It is refined from a hundred types of precious herbs, such as the Three Leaved Bone Needle Grass, Iron Grass, Blood Marrow Lotus, Purple Leaf Flesh Spirit Mushroom, Parasitic Grass, Ashan Flower."
"It has miraculous effects when taken orally and used externally. Taken orally, it can nourish the five viscera, improve the six bowels, increase internal strength, and clear the eyes and ears. Used externally, it can strengthen the muscles and bones, improve the essence, strengthen the body, and dredge the meridians. It is effective for warriors of the Great Martial Master level and below. This time, the County Marquis spent a lot of effort to purchase a batch of 'Hundred Herbs Liquid' from the 'Medicine King House' as a reward for everyone. Everyone, please thank the County Marquis. "
After Manager Li finished speaking, he took the lead and bowed to the County Marquis. Seeing this, the warriors below the stage also bowed to the County Marquis.
"Thank you, County Marquis."
Their voices were neat and uniform and shook the world.
The County Marquis stood up and waved his hand. He smiled and said, "You are all the future of Nandan County. As long as you work hard and strive to become stronger, it will be the greatest reward for me and the other city lords. I hope that you can all be conferred the title of King and General and set foot on the peak of martial arts. Good, you can continue. "After he finished speaking, he signaled to Manager Li.
Manager Li understood and continued, "Good, we will continue to announce the contents of the rewards. The fourth to tenth warriors of each rank will each receive a first-rate offensive weapon, a first-rate palm or fist technique manual, and two bottles of 'Hundred Herbs Liquid'."
"The eleventh to twentieth warriors of each rank will each receive a first-rate offensive weapon and a bottle of 'Hundred Herbs Liquid'. Good, that is all the contents of the rewards. Next, we will invite the County Marquis and the other city lords to come up to the stage and give out the rewards. "
Another round of warm applause. The awarding of the rewards was done in an orderly manner. All the warriors who received the rewards had smiles on their faces and were extremely happy.
"I really didn't expect that the rewards this time would be so plentiful. Furthermore, they are all first-rate. I remember that in the past, at most, there were second-rate weapons and martial arts, not to mention the 'Hundred Herbs Liquid' this time. It seems that we are really lucky this time. "
On the way back to the County Yamen, Luo Yunfei said happily.
"Perhaps it is because the new rules are being implemented for the first time, in order to better stimulate everyone's passion for practicing martial arts. No matter what, the rewards are indeed very tempting. "
Luo Ping was also extremely excited. He didn't expect that he would receive such a good reward on his first time participating in the Challenge Tournament. He was really lucky.
After returning to the County Yamen, everyone split up and returned to their own residences. When he returned to his room, he discovered that Chen Xiuxiu and Xing 'er were not there.
Slightly surprised, Luo Ping didn't think too much about it. Instead, he took out the rewards and placed them on the table one by one. Because the weapons and martial arts were given out randomly, Luo Ping couldn't choose the type that he liked.
The offensive weapon was a pair of Emei Piercers. They were about a foot long and had a thick middle and two thin ends. In the middle, there was a ring. As long as the warrior wore it on his middle finger, he could use the strength of his wrist and finger to control it to spin rapidly. This would confuse the opponent and achieve victory in one strike. If combined with different footwork and body movements, it could display even greater power.
Looking at it in his hand, no matter how he looked at it, it seemed like a weapon for women. He helplessly shook his head. Luo Ping planned to wait for Chen Xiuxiu to return before giving the Emei Piercers to her to try. He believed that it would be suitable for her.
The martial arts manual was a palm technique called 'Wishful Phantom Divine Palm'. However, he didn't plan to practice other palm techniques, so he didn't read the contents carefully.
Now, his eyes were focused on the three small bottles. The bottles were just ordinary porcelain bottles, engraved with patterns. However, the liquid inside was very unusual.
"Hehe, I really don't know how it will feel after consuming it. Should I try it now?"
Luo Ping hesitated at this moment because he hadn't reached the Perceptive State yet. Consuming it orally would have the greatest effect on the Perceptive State, Internal Force State, and Viscera State. If he consumed it now, he didn't know if it would have any effect.
For the Body Strengthening State and Body Refinement State, it was more practical to use it externally. As long as the body was soaked in a drop of 'Hundred Grass Essence', it would be able to display the effects of the liquid.
Continuously soaking for half a month was equivalent to three months of normal soaking. It could greatly shorten the Body Refinement period.
Suppressing the impulse in his heart, Luo Ping slowly put away the small bottle and decided to use it externally to soak his body. After putting it away, he was about to put away the Emei Piercers and the palm technique manual when he heard Chen Xiuxiu's familiar voice.
"Cousin Ping, you're back. How was it? Did you get first place?"
As soon as the voice fell, Chen Xiuxiu had already entered the room, followed by Xing 'er.
"Of course I got first place. Moreover, this year's reward is very good!"
Luo Ping replied with a smile.
"What is the reward? Is there anything good to eat? "
Chen Xiuxiu said as she was about to search him.
Luo Ping's face darkened. Sure enough, foodies were the most terrible.
"Cousin, there is a reward, but there is nothing good to eat. Look at this."
As he spoke, he passed the Emei Piercers to Chen Xiuxiu. After receiving the Emei Piercers, Chen Xiuxiu happily looked around and tried it out. She felt that it was quite fun and could not bear to put it down.
Seeing this, Luo Ping said, "Cousin, if you like it, I'll give it to you. Anyway, I'm not used to using this kind of weapon."
"Really? Cousin Ping, this is a first-rate weapon and you're giving it to me. You're too kind, you're simply a warm man! "
At this moment, Chen Xiuxiu was both surprised and touched. She kept jumping around in the room.
"Okay, stop jumping. Where did you go just now?"
Luo Ping took a sip of tea and asked faintly.
"We didn't go anywhere. We were just strolling around the county office with Sister Xing 'er."
Chen Xiuxiu waved the Emei Piercers and answered casually.
"Yes, young master. I was just strolling around the county office with Miss Cousin. We didn't go anywhere."
Xing 'er explained at the side.
"I was just casually asking. Okay, Xing 'er, you can go out. There's nothing here that needs your help."
Luo Ping ordered with a smile.
"Yes, young master, Miss Cousin. I'll take my leave."
Xing 'er bowed and said.
"Goodbye, Sister Xing 'er."
Chen Xiuxiu also replied with a smile.
"Cousin, you should also go back and pack your things. Tomorrow morning, we'll be leaving for Fifth Uncle's' Tie Li Gang '."
Luo Ping saw that Xiuxiu was having so much fun and had no intention of returning to her room. He could only helplessly say this.
"Don't worry, Cousin Ping. I've already packed my luggage. I'm just waiting for tomorrow to set off."
Chen Xiuxiu finally stopped and gulped down a large cup of tea.
"Aiyo, Cousin Ping, I'm so thirsty. No, I need to rest. Today, Sister Xing 'er and I have already strolled around the county office. However, some places are guarded by soldiers and even I can't enter. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to return. "
At this moment, Chen Xiuxiu sat down and introduced the day's itinerary to Luo Ping.
"Cousin, you said … you're strolling around the county office. Haven't you already been there countless times?"
Luo Ping looked at her and asked with some confusion.
"Yes, I've been there countless times. However, Sister Xing 'er hasn't been there before. Furthermore, she's a servant and can't walk around as she pleases. Therefore, I brought her around. With me leading the way, who would dare to stop us? Isn't that right, Cousin Ping? "
Chen Xiuxiu's face was filled with a sense of accomplishment as though she had done something amazing.
"Yes, yes, yes. You're the most beloved granddaughter of the County Marquis and the Miss Cousin of the Luo Family. Which soldier would dare to stop you? However, was it Xing 'er who suggested that we visit the county office? "
