Zhao Ning lowered his head in disappointment. He had thought that he had finally made it to the finals and might even receive a reward from the sect upon his return. However, he didn't expect that he would run into Ye Kai, shattering all of his fantasies.1
He was quickly taken away by the Zhao Family members, leaving a lonely figure behind. However, at this time, no one was paying attention to him. At this moment, everyone's eyes were glued to Ye Kai.
Xiao Ning, Liu Peng and the rest all had gloomy expressions. They never would have thought that an existence that they looked down upon a few months ago was already above them in the blink of an eye, becoming the number one genius of the Redbud Kingdom.
"Hahaha! Great! Yet another extraordinary genius has appeared in the Vermillion Bird Sect. He has the same demeanor as the Yan Yang Martial Saint from back then!" The Emperor of the Redbud Kingdom shouted and stood up from his seat with a smile.
One had to know that the Yan Yang Martial Saint was the person with the highest cultivation and respect in the past thousands of years. Now, the Emperor had actually given such an evaluation to Ye Kai. It could be seen how much he admired Ye Kai.
Ye Kai did not dare to act arrogantly. He lowered his head and said humbly, "Your Majesty, you flatter me!"
Then, the emperor actually came to his side. His eyes were sharp as if he could see through everything, and he said: "Before you were a Martial Saint, you only had the strength of a sixth level Martial Saint. In just a few months, you have already broken through to the fourth level of the Martial Ancestor Realm. "There's no need to be modest!"
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty!" Ye Kai smiled bitterly as he lowered his head, his expression was filled with reverence.
The instant he lowered his head, he suddenly saw Liu Peng in the distance. For some reason, his eyes were cold and sinister, but there was a meaningful smile on his face.
"The competition is over. As for the rewards, they'll be handed over to the various sects!" He patted Ye Kai's shoulder with a look of admiration on his face, then turned around and left after giving him a look.
Soon after, the other sects also left the area.
Not long after Ye Kai and the others returned, the royal family gave him the reward for the upcoming Great Assembly. Other than a large number of spirit stones and elixirs, there was actually a primary Heaven Ranked Fire Qilin Sword.
There were very few Heaven Tier weapons in the entire Redbud Kingdom, and many Martial Saints used Earth Tier weapons. Otherwise, the six of them would not have been missing Earth Tier High Rank swords.
Very quickly, the various sects all left, but Ye Kai did not leave. He still had one thing to do, Song Ningxi's beautiful face once again appeared in front of him. His face unconsciously revealed a warm smile.
At this moment, in the Song Family, Song Ningxi was sitting upright in her room, fiddling with her jewelry. At this moment, in the Song Family, Song Ningxi was sitting upright in her room, fiddling with her jewelry, because he was unwilling to marry Liu Peng.
Because the last time she sneaked out to meet Ye Kai with Song Qin's help, it was known by her family's elders. Right now, she could only stay in her room and be heavily guarded every day.
