puff!

The talisman exploded and a line of small characters appeared.

Xuan Mingzi took a closer look and couldn't help but twitching in the corners of his eyes, as if he was a little surprised.

"Jiang Tian did not stay in the royal forbidden area to practice, but returned to the North Guard City? Hum, this is just right!"

A cold light flashed in Xuan Mingzi's eyes, and a ferocious sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

…

Buzz!

In the teleportation hall of the North Acropolis City Lord's Mansion, accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, a white light suddenly bloomed in the hall!

Several guards looked solemn and quickly bowed towards the teleportation array, not daring to neglect at all.

At the same time, a strange spiritual energy wave surged out of thin air and reverberated in the hall.

In the magic circle shrouded in dazzling white light, two figures suddenly appeared, their figures turned from virtual to real, and they appeared!

"Welcome the City Lord!"

"No gift!"

Yue Yunpeng waved his hand and led Jiang Tian away from the magic circle without saying a word and walked out of the Teleportation Hall.

Several guards looked at each other, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit depressing!

"The Lord of the City... doesn't seem to be very happy?"

"Not only is he unhappy, I see that he is in a very bad mood!"

"I have rarely seen the Lord City Lord's expression like this. It seems that our Northern Acropolis' performance in this martial arts meeting is as usual!"

"It's not that simple! Although our Northern Acropolis did not do well in the previous martial arts competitions, the city lord has never been so embarrassed like now!"

"Yes! Could it be said that this time our Northern Acropolis has achieved the worst performance in history?"

"It's over! The level of martial arts in our Northern Acropolis has always been at the bottom. This time, I'm afraid there's no hope of making a comeback!"

Although Yue Yunpeng did not reveal the news, they had already guessed the outcome, as if they had seen the disastrous defeat of the Northern Acropolis warriors in the Imperial Square.

"Isn't that Jiang Tian the Lord of the City has high hopes for him? I see that his face looks like he doesn't care!"

"Hmph! It's okay for a half-step Xuantian realm warrior to win the championship in our Northern Guard City. Do you really expect him to shine in the Empire Square?"

"This... haha, of course it's impossible!"

"From the moment he got the top spot in Northern Acropolis, I knew that our Northern Acropolis was completely out of luck!"

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, feeling extremely depressed.

The main hall of the North Acropolis City Lord!

"Why is the Lord City Lord's face so ugly?"

"No need to ask, the entire army must have been wiped out again!"

"That's not right! I seem to have heard news from Tianjing that our performance in Northern Acropolis seems to be... not bad?"

"Not bad? Haha, do you think it's possible?"

Several civil servants and military generals looked at each other, whispering and discussing.

Jiang Tian stood in the hall, his face calm as usual, and there was no sign of any mood swings.

"Lord City Lord, if there's nothing else, I'll just take my leave!" Jiang Tian cupped his hands and smiled, preparing to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Yue Yunpeng frowned slightly, stopped him, and turned his eyes to the leading general.

"General Wen, how are things going in Luanyunling?"

The silver-armored general clasped his fists and said, "Report to the city lord! I have sent heavy troops and generals to Luanyun Ridge overnight. It won't take long before the bandits there will be completely eradicated!"

"Very good!" Yue Yunpeng waved his hand and did not ask for any details.

"Jiang Tian, ​​the cleaning of Luanyun Ridge will be completed soon, and now it is yours!"

"Officers! From now on, Jiang Tian is the master of Luanyun Ridge!"

Yue Yunpeng announced directly to everyone without any wordiness.

"Luanyun Ridge... Ridge Master?"

"hiss!"

"Lord City Lord! Although Luanyun Ridge is only one ridge, its area is really quite large. Is it inappropriate to entrust it to Jiang Tian like this?"

The faces of the civil servants and military officers all changed slightly, and they were greatly surprised. Some people immediately expressed their disapproval to Yue Yunpeng.

Yue Yunpeng waved his hand and said: "This is not the personal intention of this city lord, but the official canonization by His Majesty the King. Jiang Tian is now the lord of Luanyun Ridge recognized by the empire!"

"What?"

"His Majesty the King officially conferred the title!"

"Oh My God!"

Everyone's expressions changed, and they were all shocked by the news.

"To be able to enter His Majesty's sight, it seems that Duke Jiang's record must be good!"

"Could it be that all the news coming from Tianjing is true?"

"What kind of results did Jiang Tian get?"

"There is no doubt that as long as he wins one game, he can enter the top four. His result will probably be fourth!"

"Hiss! This result is already on par with the best result in the history of our Northern Acropolis, but even so, it's not enough to make His Majesty the King so moved, right?"

Astonished as they were, everyone was still puzzled by the canonization of the king.

Jiang Tian has only entered the semi-finals. What qualifications does his majesty have to officially confer him with the throne and become the lord of Luanyun Ridge recognized by the royal family?

"Did he finish third, or even...second?"

"Hiss! How is that possible?"

"How dare you think!"

As soon as this speculation was shouted out, everyone refuted it.

In previous duels at the Empire Square, none of the Xuantian Realm warriors from the Northern Acropolis had ever made it to the finals. How could Jiang Tian, ​​a junior in the Xuantian Realm who was only half a step ahead, do it?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, still very puzzled.

And judging from Yue Yunpeng's face, Jiang Tian's grades must not be that good.

If Jiang Tian really came back in second place, wouldn't Yue Yunpeng be overjoyed?

"Lord City Lord, what achievements did Jiang Tian achieve that can be conferred by His Majesty the King himself?"

Everyone couldn't help their curiosity and finally asked.

Yue Yunpeng let out a long sullen breath and said in a deep voice: "His result is not fourth, nor third, nor second, but first place!"

"What?"

"Number one!"

"How is that possible?"

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

Everyone's expressions changed drastically, they all gasped and fell into shock!

"Lord City Lord! Are you... not joking?"

"Jiang Tian...really...got the final...first place in the Tianfeng Martial Arts Association?" Someone swallowed his throat and said with difficulty.

General Wen, the silver-armored general who was originally a bit slanderous about the canonization of Luanyunling's lord, was completely shocked when he heard the news!

He stared deeply at Jiang Tian, ​​his eyes full of horror and shock!

Before that, Yue Yunpeng had actually revealed to him that Luanyun Ridge might be handed over to Jiang Tian.

Although he did not directly refute it at the time, he felt very disdainful in his heart.

Jiang Tian just won the first place in the Northern Acropolis. What qualifications did he have to let the army of the city lord's palace work for him?

What made him even more annoyed was that after Yue Yunpeng ordered him to clear out the area, he still left a thousand elite soldiers to serve as guards in Luanyun.

These thousand elite soldiers were all brothers who had been trained with him through life and death for a long time. They were also the elite force in the army of the city lord's palace. They had always been regarded as treasures by him, which further aggravated his resentment towards Jiang Tian.
