"Go!"
The horrified swordsman watched his face getting closer and closer to the ground. Just as he was about to merge with the wet 1502, he suddenly felt his waist being hit by something. His whole body was knocked away like an ice pot, and he was sent flying. When he finally landed on the ground, he was already far away from the passageway, narrowly avoiding the fate of becoming a human brick.
"Which brother is it that helped us?
I, Li Yuetian, am eternally grateful! "
It turned out that the rash swordsman was called Li Yuetian. It sounded like a scholarly name. Who would have thought that it would belong to such a burly man?
Li Yuetian had thought that it was one of the other swordsmen who had helped him out of the passageway to save his face.
However, when Li Yuetian's gaze swept across the swordsmen of Famed Sword Rank, he did not see any of them showing an expression of "I saved you".
On the contrary, all the swordsmen subconsciously looked at Guhan, while Guhan looked back at them with a smile.
At this moment, even Li Yuetian knew that the one who had saved him was not another swordsman, but Guhan, whom he had just scolded.
"…" Li Yuetian did not know what to do. He wanted to express his gratitude to Guhan, but when he thought of how he had insulted Guhan, he felt that he was too ashamed to say thank you.
In the end, he could only bow to Guhan, then sullenly returned to his seat, not saying another word.
At the same time, the other Famed Sword Rank swordsmen's evaluation of Guhan began to rise.
Previously, they had thought that Guhan was just a useless piece of trash who had obtained Yaoguang's approval through flattery and took over the position of Lunar Star's guardian.
Now, they vaguely understood that Guhan might not have obtained his position through flattery. On the contrary, Guhan had obtained Yaoguang's approval through his own strength.
Not to mention, just the ability to walk freely on 1502 alone was something that none of the Famed Sword Rank swordsmen present could do.
As a result, the entire conference room fell into silence once again. No one said a word as they silently pondered what kind of attitude they should take next.
At this moment, Yaoguang, who should have appeared earlier, finally appeared in the meeting room.
He felt that the silent atmosphere in the meeting room was a little strange, so he smiled and asked, "What's wrong with all of you?
Why do you have to remain silent when there's such a good meeting and award? "
"…" Silence. The meeting room was still silent, and no one relaxed because of Yaoguang's joke.
"Alright!
Then let's start today's meeting right away! "
Yaoguang shrugged. "Everyone had a hard time in the previous battle. I heard that many of our brothers were seriously injured and had to lie in the medical bay for two to three days. There were also some brothers who unfortunately left us forever. First of all, we would like to mourn for them. Now, all of you, stand and observe three minutes of silence."
This was a necessary part of the "post-battle summary meeting", and it was something that was not allowed to be joked about.
Every swordsman, including Guhan, stood up with a heavy heart. They lowered their heads and sincerely mourned for the swordsmen who had sacrificed themselves.
Their mourning came from the bottom of their hearts, because everyone knew that the next person to be mourned might be themselves.
Three minutes was a short time, but when the three minutes were over, there were still people who stood still and continued to mourn.
"Alright!
It's time to talk about some happy things. Everyone has made outstanding contributions in the battle, and all of your contributions must be rewarded. I will now commend everyone! "
At this point, Yao Guang suddenly sighed. "I'm guessing this will be the last time I'll give everyone a commendation."
"Boss!"
His words obviously touched the hearts of the other swordsmen. They all looked at Yaoguang with concern. "Boss, it's not even three years yet, you …"
"Stop talking, I will give everyone the awards!"
Yaoguang waved his hand and began to announce the various rewards that the Famed Swordsmen deserved.
Although the scale of the battle this time was much larger than the one Guhan first arrived six months ago, the actual battle was far less intense. Many of the Famed Swordsmen in Taiyin Star Garrison stayed in the Guardian's Mansion because they obeyed Yaoguang's order. They only joined the battle after the three Grand Sorcerers were killed. Therefore, the rewards they received were far less than the ones they received six months ago.
Six months ago, every surviving Famed Swordsman received 500,000 yuan and 50,000 Hero Coins as a reward. This time, the average reward was only 100,000 yuan and 5,000 Hero Coins.
On the other hand, the guest Star Garrison and the Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen who directly joined the battle received more rewards.
Of course, these Famed Swordsmen already knew what their rewards were, so they were not surprised at all.
Almost all of their attention was on Guhan. They wanted to know how many rewards Guhan received to be able to take over the position of Taiyin Star Garrison.
However, at this time, Yaoguang very cunningly kept them in suspense. He did not directly announce Guhan's reward. Instead, he clapped his hands and whispered something to the service staff in the meeting room.
The service staff immediately opened a small door beside the meeting room. More than ten humans entered through the small door in a single file.
Upon closer inspection, these people were none other than the 18 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen under Guhan's Shih Sing Garrison.
This meeting was a meeting for all Famed Swordsmen. In theory, Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen were not qualified to enter the meeting room.
However, today, Yaoguang had unexpectedly invited 18 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen to this meeting room. This made many of the Famed Swordsmen very confused.
However, the Famed Sword Rank swordbearers that belonged to the San Water Ape Guardian Palace were well aware of the reason for the appearance of these 18 ancient sword rank swordbearers.
"Brothers, you must be very curious as to why I brought these 18 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen to this meeting room today!"
Yao Guang could see the doubt in the eyes of the Famed Sword Grade swordbearers, so she chuckled and said, "I'll make a bet with you guys. Among all the Famed Sword Grade swordbearers here, other than Brother Gu Han, I'm afraid that no one else will receive more rewards than these 18 Ancient Sword Grade swordbearers."
"How is that possible?"
"That's impossible!"
"How can my contribution be less than that of an Ancient Sword Rank swordsman?
You must be joking! "
Yaoguang's words caused a huge uproar. Most of the Famed Swordsmen present did not believe that their contribution would be less than that of an Ancient Sword Rank swordsman.
However, because of Yaoguang, no one dared to say this out loud.
"You don't believe me?
Don't worry, we'll pick one by one and ask! "
Yaoguang smiled and pointed at the Ancient Sword Rank swordsman at the front of the line. He smiled and asked, "Brother, do you know how much reward you deserve?"
Hearing the mighty Lunar Star Guardian ask him a question, the Ancient Sword Rank swordsman was clearly a little agitated. His mouth opened and closed a few times, but he could not say a word.
The audience, who had been waiting anxiously, was anxious.
"GU Yuechen, just tell the truth. There's nothing to be nervous about. I'm here!"
Gu Han's voice faintly transmitted from his position. Hearing Gu Han's voice, Gu Yue 'er seemed as if he had eaten some kind of perfect supplement pill. In an instant, his entire aura became completely different, and his tone no longer hesitated. Turning to a clear and bright voice, he replied, "Replying to Lord's words, this junior also does not know the exact reward, and can only make a rough estimate. I do not know if my estimate is accurate or not."
"Oh!
Then tell me, what's your estimate? "Yaoguang asked with a smile.
"About … vaguely … I think … I think … I think … I think it's … about a million RMB, or 100,000 Hero Coins!" GU Yuechen hesitated for a long time before finally saying his estimate.
GU Yuechen's words were like a bomb that exploded in the room. Everyone in the room wondered if they had heard wrong. This Ancient Sword Rank swordsman had actually said that he would receive 100,000 Hero Coins!
What kind of joke was this? The average Famed Sword Rank swordsman only received 5,000 Hero Coins. Could it be that this Ancient Sword Rank swordsman's contribution was 20 times that of the Famed Sword Rank swordsman's?
These Famed Sword Rank swordsmen wanted to capture these Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen and teach them a lesson. They wanted to teach them to be honest and not to lie so easily … Even if they were to lie, they had to make it sound as believable as possible. Don't boast like that!
"Tsk tsk, this kid needs to have some confidence!"
Yaoguang chuckled and clapped his hands. An electronic voice rang throughout the room. "Ancient Sword Rank swordsman GU Yuechen has killed 500 Junior Witches, 112 Intermediate Witches, and 1 Heaven Witch in the battle seven days ago. In total, he has received 2,420,000 RMB, 242,000 Hero Coins, and 24,200 Merit Points."
The number announced by the AI almost made the Famed Sword Rank swordsmen fall off their seats in shock.
Only now did they understand why Yaoguang had told GU Yuechen to be more confident. It turned out that GU Yuechen's own estimate was twice as low as the actual number. This meant that his reward was actually 40 times the average reward of these Famed Sword Rank swordsmen.
Even the most shameless person would want to crawl into a hole in the ground after hearing this difference.
Right now, they could only hope that this GU Yuechen was an exception. The other 17 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen did not have such a terrifying battle record as GU Yuechen.
However, reality once again slapped them in the face. When the AI announced the rewards for all the Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen, everyone was shocked to find that although GU Yuechen was ranked near the top of the 18 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen, he did not have the most. The highest reward he had received was more than 280,000 Hero Coins.
What was even more frightening was that the lowest reward among the 18 Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen had received was 190,000 Hero Coins. Even so, they had completely crushed the Famed Sword Rank swordsmen.
"Could these Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen be Spiritual Sword Rank swordsmen in disguise?"
These Famed Sword Rank swordsmen had no idea how the Ancient Sword Rank swordsmen had done this. They could only make the absurd assumption that they were Spiritual Sword Rank swordsmen in disguise.
