Biluo Heavenly Emperor arrived at the tournament scene, attracting the attention of all, everyone was extremely excited. Wang Xiaoqiang opened his Heaven-Opening Eye and glanced, discovering that the person in the sky was someone he had seen before — the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation who had previously invited him to dinner at City Lord Fang Yuntian's house, and not Biluo Heavenly Emperor himself.
And her mount was also the Green Feather Bird he had seen last time.
Wang Xiaoqiang was not the only one to recognize the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation; the Four Great Protectors, City Lord Fang Yuntian, and the Top Ten Territory Lords also recognized it. After all, the true mount of the Biluo Heavenly Emperor is not the Green Feather Bird, but an Ancient Divine Beast — Kunpeng.
Although they recognized it, the avatar represents the true self, and must be addressed as the Heavenly Emperor, and treated with the same respect as the true Biluo Heavenly Emperor, without the slightest neglect.
As everyone welcomed her reverently, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation slowly descended in the Green Feather Bird in front of the podium, and the protectors and domain lords behind the podium quickly and politely made way, inviting the Biluo Heavenly Emperor to take her seat behind the podium.
The Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation waved her hand, and instantly a golden Storage Bag flew out, enlarging in the wind, hanging upside down with its opening aligned with the Green Feather Bird. The Green Feather Bird chirped and turned into a phantom, kept shrinking, eventually becoming palm-sized, and burrowed into the Storage Bag.
The Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation retrieved the Storage Bag and then seated herself in the central position behind the podium.
At this time, the protectors and domain lords stood still, not daring to sit on par with the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation. Seeing this, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation blandly uttered three words, "Sit down."
The Four Great Protectors and the Top Ten Territory Lords exchanged glances and then said in unison, "Yes, thank you, Heavenly Emperor, for granting us seats."
Only then did they each sit back down in their positions.
"Let it begin," said the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation slowly. With the command of the Biluo Heavenly Emperor, the tournament immediately started.
Although this grand event is solemn, there are actually not many contents. First, a government officer brought the top 100 contestants of the current Golden Immortal ranking competition onto the stage,
The 100 contestants walked onto the stage one after another. As arranged by the government officer, they stood according to their rankings, with Wang Xiaoqiang standing at the head as the first, and the bald old man ranked one-hundredth standing at the end.
Wang Xiaoqiang, standing at the head, naturally received much attention and acclaim, while the bald old man at the end appeared ashamed, like a student who scored a zero on an exam, not daring to face anyone.
Almost no one knew that this bald old man had become one-hundredth because he harbored murderous intent towards Wang Xiaoqiang; otherwise, with his strength, he would have been at least within the top fifty.
Even fewer people knew that this bald old man now obeyed Wang Xiaoqiang like a servant.
After the top 100 contestants stood on the stage, the government officer began to summarize and review the competition.
This Golden Immortal ranking competition was held very smoothly, and quite successfully. Compared with previous editions, the results were outstanding as well.
This outstanding performance mainly manifested in Wang Xiaoqiang breaking three records in the Territory City Elimination, Realm Capital Elimination, and Hundred Battles and Hundred Chambers Challenge, surpassing the glorious records set by his predecessors and winning first place, reaching the pinnacle of this competition.
When the government officer mentioned this, they heavily praised and commended Wang Xiaoqiang's achievements. For a moment, Wang Xiaoqiang on the stage received even more attention and admiration, with voices of envy, amazement, praise, and respect echoing continuously.
At this moment, Wang Xiaoqiang felt unparalleled glory. In his heart, he felt immense joy, and the two Light of Joy balls inside him grew hot and radiant, continuously expanding.
Meanwhile, behind the podium, Fang Yuntian watched Wang Xiaoqiang reach the pinnacle of this competition, earning both fame and fortune, and felt immensely frustrated.
Additionally, he had recently discovered significant issues with his daughter, "Fang Yuyan." Her personal maid and the household servants privately gossiped that this "Fang Yuyan" was not Miss Fang Yuyan, but an impostor since that kidnapping day, and had been swapped.
Upon hearing this news, Fang Yuntian was extremely furious. Considering that his daughter would soon marry into the Chu Family, he forcibly suppressed the matter.
To completely block the information, he found an excuse to kill his daughter's personal maid and several informed maids. Although such actions were akin to covering one's ears while stealing a bell, it was necessary to avoid disgrace and prevent giving the Chu Family leverage.
"It must be this Wang Xiaoqiang who swapped my daughter. This damn Wang Xiaoqiang dared to harm my daughter. I, Fang Yuntian, will tear you to pieces and obliterate your soul, condemning you to eternal damnation,"
Fang Yuntian, his eyes bloodshot, glared hatefully at Wang Xiaoqiang, wishing he could tear him apart right then. However, he could not act rashly, and henceforth he could no longer casually attack Wang Xiaoqiang. After all, Wang Xiaoqiang had reached the pinnacle of this competition, receiving much attention and gaining favor from the Biluo Heavenly Emperor. If the matter was exposed, he would face catastrophic consequences.
After summarizing and reviewing the competition, the government officer began to call out the names of the top-ranked contestants in order and gave them commendations.
Then, the government officer invited the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation to speak. After a gentle cough, the Biluo Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation succinctly said, "This competition was held very well. Wang Xiaoqiang winning this competition is well-deserved and should be heavily rewarded and prominently ennobled…"
Although it was a brief remark, it elicited thunderous applause from the audience, clearly showcasing the appreciation for Wang Xiaoqiang. Consequently, Fang Yuntian's face darkened again, to the point that it seemed water could drip from it, while both on and off stage, there was universal envy and jealousy towards Wang Xiaoqiang.
The event continued, and next was the ennoblement of the top 100 contestants. The ennoblement began with the hundredth place; the bald old man was granted a territory. In the previous edition, he was ranked within the top fifty and was the king of a tribe, but in this edition, he could only be granted a territory, and even then it was a small one, with his previous tribe being officially taken away and transferred under someone else's command.
Yuu Qingxue also received a territory, similarly not large, a medium-sized one. However, for her, being able to own her territory at such a young age was a significant joy in life.
After the fiftieth place, the rewards transitioned from territories to tribes, although only small tribes, with the higher rankings receiving larger tribes.
Until the top three, where they were awarded very large tribes, even those ultra-large tribes, and the tribes differed not only in size but also in geographical location. Some tribes were surrounded by the Great Marsh of Spirit Mountain, teeming with Spiritual Energy, advantageous for cultivation, while others were barren and watersome, with sparse Spiritual Energy and very poor geographical locations.
Finally, it was Wang Xiaoqiang's turn as the first place. Before the government officer spoke of the allotment, everyone in the audience held their breath, full of expectation, eager to know what kind of tribe or land Wang Xiaoqiang would be granted.
