Douluo: My Teacher Is the Pope - Chapter 276
c276 Challenge from Fire Dance?
“You have successfully qualified for the elite competition of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy. As the supreme ruler of the Tiandou Empire, I am proud of you.”
“You are all the hope for the future of the empire. As the captain and deputy captain of each team, your strength also plays the most important role in the game. Therefore, I have decided to confer the title of Viscount on all ten of you.”
“The baron titles of the other participating students from your five colleges. After you graduate, the imperial royal family’s door will be open to you at any time, and your fiefdoms will be distributed uniformly after your graduation.”
“Your Majesty, isn’t this good?” Saras suddenly interjected from the side. He dared to interrupt when the emperor of a country was speaking, which showed the confidence of Wuhun Palace.
It’s not that he’s afraid of the Tiandou Empire recruiting these people. After all, with the Holy Son here, these talents are really nothing. The continent may be unified before they grow up.
What really embarrasses Salas is, what’s the point of you canonizing our Holy Son? But I still can’t explain the reason…
Emperor Xueye glanced at Salas lightly, “Is there anything wrong? Your Excellency, Bishop Salas.”
Salas thought about it: “In previous competitions, there is no precedent for awarding knighthoods. What’s more, is the knighthood given too high?”
Regardless of whether it is the Tiandou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, the ranking of noble titles is Duke, Marquis, Uncle, Son, and Male. Just one qualifying qualification can release the noble titles of ten Viscounts. The generosity of Emperor Xue Ye Enough to surprise anyone around.
It seems that in the Tiandou Empire, they have been sparing no effort in recruiting talents, Li Changan thought silently.
However, Emperor Xueye blocked Salas’s mouth with just one sentence, “Your Excellency Bishop Platinum, the awarding of titles is an internal matter of the empire and has nothing to do with Wuhun Palace or this competition.”
“It’s just that I appreciate the rewards given by these children. They represent our Tiandou Empire to participate in this Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition. Here I also want to make a promise to you. If any of your teams can win the final If the game is won, the entire team’s title will be promoted to one level, and the prefix of the academy will be added with the word “Royal” to receive financial support from the empire.”
You are so generous. It seems that the Tiandou Empire has been under a lot of pressure recently. Li Changan continued to analyze that for the sake of talents, they have been recruiting in competitions at all costs.
But as a good student who has read history, Li Changan is well aware of the disadvantages of too many nobles. It can be said that the demise of many dynasties in Chinese history was related to nobles.
There is no way? The nobles do not work and enjoy privileges. How can the common people bear it when there are more people? We can’t afford to support the nobles, okay?
But it is a pity that except for Li Changan, a person who jumped out of the long river of history, there are few people who can see this.
As the captains and deputy captains of each team, although these young people can be considered to have seen the world, they were still a little confused when Emperor Xueye dropped this series of rewards.
What does the title mean? The viscount can already have his own territory and attendants? And he will also receive a certain subsidy from the state. This money alone is enough to live on.
Although many soul masters have titles, it is easy to obtain the titles of the kingdom and duchy, but it is not so simple to obtain the title of the empire. Especially the directly awarded title of viscount, the territory owned by a viscount can already be a small city. .
What’s even more frightening is that Emperor Xueye has already promised the ten people in front of him? After this competition is over. Give them fiefdoms.
This shows that they are not just a mere name for a title, but a noble who actually owns a territory.
Of course? This does not include Li Changan and Meng Yiran. Meng Yiran only listens to her “godfather” now? And only her “godfather” is in his eyes? After all, how can a title be as comfortable as a “godfather”?
Salas’ face looked ugly? He didn’t say anything more. But there was a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes? He even glared at Li Changan fiercely? What is this?
The captains and vice-captains of the six teams that passed the qualifiers are all elites among young soul masters. Each one is smart, because of Emperor Xueye’s promise and Saras’s stoppage. They could also vaguely feel the smell of gunpowder.
Ning Fengzhi just stood aside and smiled silently, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
Emperor Xue Ye didn’t seem to see the ugly face of Platinum Bishop Salas at all? He continued to smile:
“The next promotion competition will still be held in the empire? But the venue will be changed from the Tiandou Great Soul Fighting Arena to the Royal Paddock. At that time, the ten teams from the five principalities and kingdoms that have passed the qualifiers will come to compete with you. In the promotion competition, I hope that all six of your colleges will be at the top of the promotion competition, so that you can have an advantage when participating in the finals.”
“The promotion competition is the best stage to reflect your personal strength. At that time, the top three students who have won the most promotion competitions, the empire will provide you with the soul beasts you need for the next title promotion. You can choose the soul beasts by yourself. The empire can guarantee all kinds of soul beasts with cultivation levels below 30,000 years.”
It has nothing to do with me, but I’m sorry for not having sex for nothing this time. I must let my fishes fight for this benefit. Li Changan has already planned to do it.
After all, starting from level 50, a soul master’s training speed will be greatly reduced. First, with a better ten-thousand-year soul ring as a guarantee, he will undoubtedly be able to remain strong during the process from level 50 to 60, and will be more confident about future development. There are infinite benefits.
Seeing the burning heat gradually rising in the eyes of the elites in front of him, Emperor Xueye smiled slightly and said, “The promotion competition will be held in one month. I hope you can make another breakthrough within this month. Okay, I won’t say much else. Yes. You kids are very smart, and I think you will make smart choices.”
After saying this, Emperor Xueye turned his gaze and glanced at the face of Platinum Bishop Salas before turning around and leaving, accompanied by a high-ranking official from the empire.
Salas’s eyes moved slightly, but his expression had completely calmed down. It was difficult to tell anything from the expression on his face, because Li Changan had just sent him a message and he already had a plan in mind.
“Ignore this old man’s protest. We at Wuhun Palace are not fighting for the future. We can just unify the mainland day and night.”
………….
Li Changan and Meng Yiran walked out of the Tiandou Soul Arena together, and others were waiting for them outside. At this moment, a sudden voice suddenly stopped Li Changan.
“Li Changsheng!”
Li Changan turned around and saw a patch of red magnifying in front of his eyes. It was Huo Wu who stopped him.
“What’s the matter?” Li Changan asked pretending to be confused.
Huo Wu came to him in a few steps and stood less than one meter away from Li Changan.
I have to say that standing face to face with Huo Wu is very oppressive, because her height is really outstanding among girls, not much worse than the current Li Changan.
You know, with the absorption of soul rings and the improvement of strength, Li Changan’s physical development has become much stronger than that of his peers, and his height is now close to 1.85 meters. Huo Wu’s height is only 1.8 meters.
But fortunately, Huo Wu will not continue to grow, otherwise Li Changan is really worried about how to ride a big horse when he conquers her. But to be fair, although Huo Wu’s height is in place, some parts are much different, and he still needs someone Li Just do it.
Huo Wu stared at the outstanding-looking Li Changan in front of him, who always seemed to have an indifferent temperament and said:
“Do you have the guts to fight me without your martial spirit?”
