"Who else knows about this?" Guhan snapped out of his thoughts and turned to Bright Moon.
"Probably only the people from our Yaoguang Sword Faction know about this. I just asked them, and they all said that they've never mentioned this to anyone else. They also promised that they would keep it to themselves and not tell anyone else!"
Bright Moon had secretly contacted Steel Centipede and the others while Guhan was deep in thought, and specifically told them about the Yue Wangjian.
"Thank everyone for me. I'll return this favor in the future!" Guhan said, cupping his fists.
"Alright, don't be so formal. Our Yaoguang Sword Faction naturally doesn't need to worry, but there's one person we can't control!" Bright Moon said, pouting.
As for who the person she was talking about was, Gu Han was well aware of it.
Aside from the traitor of the Yaoguang Sword Faction and the second-in-command of the Yaoguang Sword Faction, who else could make Bright Moon so unhappy?
"He probably won't betray me!"
Gu Han forwarded a mail to Bright Moon of Yesteryear's personal terminal. When Bright Moon of Yesteryear opened the mail, she realized that it was sent by Wondrous Brushwriter. The content was very simple. There was only one sentence: "I won't tell anyone about Yue Wangjian."
"His promise should still be valid!"
Although she disliked the Wondrous Brush Scholar, Ming Yue had no choice but to admit that the Wondrous Brush Scholar's character was excellent!
"Hmph, he's just reminding me that he has something on me!" Guhan sneered. "It's fine. I already have an idea on this matter.
Please tell Steel Centipede and the others that I thank them for this.
If they don't say it, I'll remember their kindness. If they say it, it's fine too. I already have an appropriate solution. "
"Tch, you still don't believe Steel Centipede and the others!"
Bright Moon stood up. "You can tell Steel Centipede and the others yourself. Look, the host has already come out. The officials probably already have a way to deal with this!"
"Dear players, after the discussion of our official special planners, the results are as follows!"
The host coughed, his face a little stiff. "After looking through the information again, the admiral's entire process did not violate any rules.
Therefore, it is hereby decided that the competition will continue. Admiral can also continue to use the Famed Sword Grade Swordmaiden to continue fighting. Everything will return to normal, and the competition will restart in one minute! "
"Shady!"
"Trash!"
"Bastard!"
The audience was in an uproar, and all kinds of insults and curses could be heard.
Most of these players were players who had bet on the Admiral not being able to defeat the champion of the Famed Sword Group. Now that the Admiral had the Yue King Gou Jian Sword in hand and was a Famed Sword level swordsman, wouldn't it be easy for him to become the champion of the Famed Sword Group?
They might as well bang their heads against the wall and kill themselves. How could they not be angry when they had lost all their money in vain!?
How could they not be angry?
Even the players who bet that Guhan could defeat the champion of the Famed Swordmistress group were livid. This was because if Military Governor had the Famed Swordmistress, defeating a Spiritual Sword Swordmistress wouldn't be impossible. When that time came, they would lose.
Seeing the angry players around him and the host sweating profusely, not knowing what to say, Guhan knew that things couldn't go on like this. Otherwise, even if he achieved his goal, his reputation would be ruined. He would turn from the beloved Military Governor to the hated Military Governor.
Although Guhan didn't mind his reputation being ruined, once it was ruined, many things would be difficult to do. Therefore, Guhan couldn't just sit back and watch things develop like this.
Therefore, Guhan walked to the side of the host and asked calmly, "I would like to borrow your microphone to say a few words to everyone. Is that okay?"
"This …" The host also wanted to get out of this painful situation. Now that Guhan had stepped forward, it could ease his embarrassment. Therefore, after consulting the officials who were watching the whole process, he decisively handed the microphone to the Military Governor.
"Everyone, don't scold me first. Can you listen to me before you scold me?"
Guhan's voice spread through the microphone. Now that the Military Governor had a lot of prestige, everyone instantly shut their mouths and looked at the Military Governor to see what he wanted to say.
"I know that everyone thinks that it's unfair for me to use the Famed Swordmistress to fight. In fact, I don't want to do this, but there are some things that I can't control, so I won't defend myself."
"Just now, this host told me that the officials have agreed to let me continue using the Famed Swordmistress to fight the next Famed Swordmistress.
I'm very grateful to the officials for their understanding. I deeply respect their strict adherence to the rules. It's because of this attitude that our game can continue to develop healthily. I'd like to thank all the game developers here. Your decisions have left me in awe! "
Guhan's words made the officials happy. At least, the four special class planners who were anxious because of Guhan and trembling with anger after reading all kinds of cursing comments on the forum felt much better.
Their resentment towards Guhan wasn't as big as before.
"Of course, I also know what everyone is thinking. Everyone has invested their limited wealth into the Welfare Lottery. If I made a mistake and caused a loss because of me, then that is indeed my mistake!
Actually, the Yue King Goujian Sword was in my hands a long time ago. It was a reward given to me after I cleared the Yue King Goujian Sword Instance Dungeon as an SSS-rank. Previously, because my sword element didn't reach the full ten thousand quarks, I took it to participate in the King Arthur's Betrayal Instance Dungeon. My teammates actually mistook me for a Famed Swordmistress … They only found out the truth just now. I've let them down!
"After that, I didn't touch the Yue King Goujian Sword Instance Dungeon until this morning, when the competition ended. Then, I suddenly became a Famed Swordmistress!"
Guhan's words explained why he had become a Famed Swordmistress. He also explained the King Arthur's Betrayal Instance Dungeon. Even if Wonderpen Scholar brought this matter up in the future, Guhan could deny it completely. After all, Guhan was only holding the Yue King Goujian Sword in his hands. Whether or not it was synchronized, they could not provide evidence.
Of course, it was not completely without evidence. For example, in the Yaoguang Sword Sect's database, there must still be video data from that time. If they carefully analyzed the video data, they might be able to find some clues.
However, these were just clues and not actual evidence. Guhan was not afraid of them. Moreover, when the time came, Guhan might not even need the identity of the Military Governor.
The Military Governor's explanation was reasonable. The audience discussed for a while and finally accepted the Military Governor's explanation.
But accepting an explanation was one thing, and accepting the truth was another. Asking them to allow Gu Han to bring a Famed Sword Grade Sword Lady to participate in the competition was something they would never agree to!
Of course, Guhan had also thought of this, so he continued.
"I know. Before me, the 19 seniors used Swordmistresses of the Treasure Sword Level to participate in the competition. Originally, I did not plan to take out the Famed Swordmistress.
However, Mingyue was a good friend of mine. Since I promised her that I would do my best, I will not go back on my word. That's why I took out my Famed Swordmistress! "
Gu Han paused for a moment. He suddenly found the emcee next to him and asked him through the microphone, "Mr. Emcee, among the past 19 challengers, how many quarks did the one with the least amount of sword element have?"
The host was confused. How would he know who had the least amount of Sword Essence?
He did not know, but the officials did. In less than five seconds, the data was sent to the host's personal terminal.
"It was Gu Jin Zheng. He won first place in the Treasure Sword Group with 30987 quarks of Sword Essence. Then, he challenged the Famed Swordmistresses!" the host answered quickly.
"I see. Then, I will also announce my own situation. I now have a total of 25325 quarks of Sword Essence. That's 5,000 quarks less than Gu Jin Jiandi. It seems like I will break the record for the fewest amount of Sword Essence in the Treasure Sword Group!" Guhan's words confused the players. What did the Military Governor mean?
Did he boast too little about his Sword Essence?
"Everyone must be wondering why I'm telling you all this. It's very simple. If I don't use the Famed Sword Maiden, then I should be the weakest champion of the treasured swords category since ancient times!"
At this point, Gu Han smiled. "If I can promise everyone that other than this match with Miss Mingyue, I will not use the Surpassing King's Sword in my other two Famed Sword Tier Challenges. I will only use my Poverty Sword and Heavenly Sword to fight.
Furthermore, if I lose the second match, then the match between me and that year's Ming Yue would also be considered a loss. Is everyone willing to accept my suggestion? "Gu Han's words were reasonable and convincing!
Hearing Guhan's words, the other players nodded, expressing that this was indeed the most suitable solution. If Guhan didn't use the Famed Swordmistress, then it would be no different from the usual situation!
At this time, the majority of the players had already secretly nodded. However, there were still a large number of players who felt that it was inappropriate. This Military Governor only said that he wouldn't use the Famed Swordmistress in the last two matches of the Famed Sword Group, but Guhan could use the Famed Swordmistress in the Spiritual Sword Group!
In this case, it wasn't impossible for the Military Governor to break the record of the Famed Sword Group and defeat the Spiritual Sword Group!
But very quickly, these people's worries were completely put to rest!
Because Guhan continued, "I've looked at the odds of the welfare lottery. Thank you everyone for your support. You all think that I can defeat the champion of the Famed Sword Group. I understand everyone's thoughts, and for the sake of everyone's money, I, Military Governor, will also only use the Famed Swordmistress in the three matches against the Spiritual Sword Group!"
"Of course, everyone in the Celestial Sword Group can't make things difficult for me anymore, provided that I can kill my way to the Celestial Sword Group, hahaha!" As Military Governor finished speaking, the entire venue was filled with thunderous applause.
In the forum, all the disputes suddenly disappeared, and all turned into praises for the Military Governor. The human heart was really capricious and cute!
