1604 Double the Reward, Double the Happiness! (2)

Wang Teng decided to fight sixteen candidates at once because he wanted to save time!

Finally, the devilization of the Crown Prince was also a matter beyond his control.

To sum it up, he competed as per usual, never sparing a thought about entering the so-called Star Rankings.

The hero finally shifted his attention to the box he received and opened it.

An exquisite silver-white battle armor with purple lightning patterns laid quietly inside the casing. It gave off a powerful and domineering aura.

Beside the battle armor was a long purple sword. It was ancient and unique, radiating a sharp and oppressive vibe.

“A battle armor and a weapon of the lightning element, both of universe-rank!” somebody exclaimed beside the hero.

It was Ji Haochen.

The Second Prince, Timothy, and the rest looked over, bewilderment showing in their eyes.

A universe-level armor!

And a sword of the same rank!

Furthermore, both were of the lightning element!

The items in Wang Teng’s box exceeded their expectations.

Ji Haochen and the rest had already checked their own boxes. Their weapons and armor were at the heaven rank and were customized to fit their cultivation path. They were elated.

However, some disappointment set in when they saw the champion’s rewards.

Not only did he get the title of earl, his weapon and armor were also a notch higher than theirs.

The price difference between heaven level and universe level items wasn’t just two fold. The gap was abismal.

Ling Yangxu was jealous since he also was a lightning element warrior. He didn’t feel much for the long sword since he was a spear user, but the lightning armor was extremely tempting. He wished he could snatch it.

To others, a lightning armor of universe rank was merely surprising to others, while it was fatally alluring to him.

Unfortunately, this reward belonged to someone else.

He looked at his heaven-ranked armor and spear, his happiness gone.

Wang Teng glanced at the rest. These people are making a ruckus over nothing. How ignorant!

Only the Second Prince managed to remain composed.

“Do you like them?” asked the grand duke with a smile.

“Yes, I do. But…” The hero paused for a second, then looked at the high noble with a bewildered expression. “Isn’t this reward a little heavy?”

In fact, he didn’t have many universe-level weapons or armor.

Especially lightning-element armor. He didn’t have any before.

It was indeed a grand gift!

“You deserve it,” replied Grand Duke Chongshan, smiling once more.

“You granted me an earl title and now this huge reward. I feel overwhelmed.” The hero smiled back.

Ji Haochen and the others glanced at the latter, while complaining in their hearts. Damn it, this fellow is just being pretentious.

“Hahaha, as long as you’re a citizen of the Great Qian Empire, you have the right to receive these rewards.” The grand duke laughed.

“I wouldn’t be who I am without the empire. I will always be a part of it.” Wang Teng nodded.

He wasn’t lying. He met many enemies in the empire, but he also met more friends and benefactors. Even the imperial family had given him plenty of help in secret, so he felt a sense of belonging towards the grand empire.

The grand duke felt relieved after seeing the firm and stern gaze of the hero. He didn’t want to groom a white-eyed wolf.

Fortunately, based on the young hero’s previous actions, he wasn’t that kind of person.

“Keep it,” said the high noble.

“It would be ungracious of me to decline these gifts then.” Wang Teng nodded and stored the rewards with the wave of a hand.

Ling Yangxu felt disappointed. His heart was bleeding.

Wang Teng noticed the fellow’s reaction and chuckled in secret, knowing what the latter was thinking.

“Feeling jealous?” Wang Teng whispered.

Ling Yangxu immediately changed his expression and snorted as he looked over. “Hmph!”

“Don’t be like that. A man should be straightforward. If you say it, I might let you touch it,” the hero continued.

“Really?” Ling Yangxu’s eyes lit up. He would love to do that, even if he couldn’t have it.

“Of course.” The former nodded firmly.

“Cough, I am a little envious, just a little. I mean, that’s a universe-ranked armor of the lightning element,” the warrior said.

“Keep feeling envious then,” Wang Teng replied.

Ling Yangxu was stunned.

The Second Prince and the others burst out laughing upon hearing their conversation. They felt sad for the fellow.

Leng Qianxue and Yue Qiqiao’s expressions turned strange.

Wang Teng is really evil!

The grand duke laughed and shook his head while glancing at the hero. “All right, stop fooling around. The Seven Stellar Academies didn’t leave much time for you. Prepare to head back and settle your personal matters. After that, report directly to your academies. Don’t waste any time.”

“Yes!” Everyone was quick to reply.

Ling Yangxu wanted to speak, but was cut off by the grand duke’s announcement. All he could do was glare at Wang Teng.
