Volume 2 That World Chapter 86: The First Chief, the Treasure of Jiange!
Oh my god!
Seeing that Qin Zijin acknowledged that she was the one in charge of Jiange Industry, Qi Ji finally couldn't hold it anymore.
Good man, I had already accepted the fact that the girl was a rich woman on Earth.
Who would have thought that this guy is also a powerful business tycoon in the outside world?
No wonder I have been so confident all along!
I must kneel down and lick it immediately!
The two chatted in low voices for a few words, and at Qin Zijin's signal, Qi Ji immediately looked at Yu Xujiang seriously again.
At this time, the quiet noise in the field had begun to subside, and the young talents had already digested this surprise.
Yu Xujiang smiled as he looked at the crowd. Seeing that they had quieted down, he continued, "Then there are the seven champions from various factions. Jian Ge promises that in the future, the champions will enjoy the highest discounts on all our industrial consumption. In addition, each champion will have one chance to order a special weapon from the fifth floor of the Sword Workshop, and the materials will be fully borne by Jian Ge as far as possible."
Compared to others, several champions from various forces were much calmer. Although they did look happy after hearing Yuxujiang's promise, they did not make the same noise and whispering as before.
After all, each champion is originally the most outstanding talent in the force, and has always enjoyed the best training resources of the force. Having seen many good things, he will naturally be more calm about the rewards of Jiange.
"Then the first place winner of this competition will be decided... I think everyone has already chosen their candidate in mind, right?" Yu Xujiang smiled and paused deliberately.
Swish.
Everyone's eyes turned to a person at the scene.
It was Qi Ji who was supported by Qin Zijin. At this moment, he looked indifferent, with a slight smile on his lips, and responded to everyone's gaze in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
If we were to choose the strongest chief of this session, there is no doubt that this person is far ahead in all aspects.
Seeing this, Yu Xujiang couldn't help but smile and said loudly: "The first chief is Qi Ji. Does anyone have any doubts about this?"
All the young people shook their heads silently, indicating that they had no objection.
On the extraordinary team leader side, Longchang’s team leader Wuchuan also took the lead in speaking: "Qi Ji has extraordinary talent. He is comparable to the extraordinary with his mortal body. He has excellent character and personality. If he is not the first leader, then I am afraid no one else is worthy of it."
"Shendao Tower seconded the motion!" Huang Jiangling, the leader of Shendao Tower, immediately expressed his opinion.
"Wuxiang Temple seconded the proposal." Wuxiang Temple's leader Li Yunxi also immediately expressed his opinion.
"Armored Palace seconded." "Demon Extermination Society seconded." "Liaoyuan Sect seconded."
The leaders of several major forces took turns to express their opinions and soon confirmed the result that Qi Ji was the first chief this time.
Yu Xujiang laughed loudly and said, "Then let me officially announce that the first place winner of this sword-watching and martial arts competition is Qi Ji from the Sword Pavilion!"
Wow!
Although there were not many people present, there was still a lot of enthusiasm due to the collective cheers and applause.
Everyone was convinced by the result.
Qi Ji's number one bootlicker Shangquan Yiren came forward immediately, looking ten times happier and prouder than Qi Ji: "Qi Ji-san! From the first day we met, I knew that you were definitely not an ordinary person, and now it has proven my thoughts!"
Bai Tianhe and Su Jingqiu also smiled and congratulated Qingsheng.
"Qi Ji, you have won the first place as everyone expected. I was a drag this time because of my poor martial arts skills." Bai Tianhe said softly.
Then he immediately revealed a confident smile: "After this breakthrough to the seventh level, I have a clearer understanding of my future. Next, I will redouble my efforts in cultivation. You wait, although there is still a gap between us now, we will compete again after we step into the extraordinary realm!"
A swordsman with sword spirit will surely be a genius who can reach the top in the future. How can he be depressed because of a temporary gap?
Su Jingqiu's words were even simpler. She smiled and said, "Don't forget your promise to me. I will be in seclusion after today. Before I break through to the extraordinary level, I want to fight with you."
Qi Ji smiled and agreed with both people's congratulations.
As for Qin Zijin, she was still holding Qi Ji, but she didn't say much. Instead, she just looked at Qi Ji and smiled quietly, her eyes curved like crescent moons.
Yu Xujiang raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and smiled, "Next is the 'treasure' that has long been determined to be awarded to the first place in this competition. Although I have not announced what it is before, it is just to avoid affecting your mentality for the competition. In fact, you should have heard of this treasure."
As he spoke, he took out a fist-sized box from his arms and gently opened it in front of everyone.
A milky white, round, jade-like fruit that faintly emits a soft light is lying inside.
"Fruit of Enlightenment!" a fourth-level team leader exclaimed.
When everyone in the audience heard the name of this thing, they all got excited. The younger generation of people poked their heads out to try to get a clear look at the fruit in the box, their eyes full of desire.
The fruit of enlightenment?
Qi Ji was a little curious about what this fruit with such a cool name was.
Why is the attitude of the whole audience so enthusiastic?
So he chose to ask Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin seemed to have expected Qi Ji to ask, and immediately replied with a smile: "This enlightenment fruit is a divine fruit that can only be condensed with a small chance after killing a high-level foreign demon and eliminating the 'foreign demon desperate situation'. It is even rarer than the blood bodhi."
"Then what is the use of this thing?" Qi Ji swallowed his saliva and looked at the fruit, naturally revealing a strong desire.
Qin Zijin smiled slightly: "To stimulate your talents."
My talents?
Qi Ji was stunned for a moment.
Without waiting for Qin Zijin to explain more, at Yu Xujiang's beckoning , Qi Ji had no choice but to step forward.
Yu Xujiang looked at Qi Ji coming up to him and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, "You are indeed a genius without precedent, Qi Ji, congratulations, you have won the first place among the seven major forces with your strength."
After saying that, he handed over the box containing the Enlightenment Fruit.
"Thank you, Master Yu!"
Qi Ji excitedly reached out to take it.
Yu Xujiang said softly: "Wait until the dust settles. Go back to the Sword Pavilion Hall and take it. I will take care of you."
Qi Ji immediately nodded to show that he understood.
Yu Xujiang smiled slightly: "I understand."
Qi Ji returned to the crowd again.
Qin Zijin held out his hand to support him, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "This fruit has miraculous effects."
Before Qi Ji could ask again, she continued, "First of all, this thing has the effect of increasing talent. After taking it, it can amplify a talent you already have, making it more prominent and stronger. For example, if you are good at running, you will know how to run better from a talent level. If you are good at swordsmanship, after your talent is amplified, you may change from 'good at' to 'genius'."
Qi Ji was amazed and said, "There is actually something with this kind of effect. It is worthy of being called a divine fruit."
Qin Zijin smiled and said, "If that were the case, this divine fruit wouldn't be so precious."
Qi Ji was stunned and said, "So there are other effects besides this?"
Qin Zijin nodded: "People who take this fruit for the first time can not only strengthen their existing talents, but also be inspired to acquire new talents. For example, if a person has never had a talent for mathematics, after taking this fruit, he may suddenly awaken and become a genius in mathematics. "
She then smiled and said, "This fruit is quite intelligent. It will awaken you according to the areas that your subconscious mind tends to. For example, those of us who value martial arts can almost always awaken talents that are helpful in combat after taking it."
Qi Ji nodded and looked at Qin Zijin thoughtfully: "How do you know so clearly?"
Qin Zijin chuckled: "Because I have eaten it before."
Well, Qi Ji was speechless for a moment.
What a simple and unpretentious reason that leaves one speechless.
On this side, Yu Xujiang has announced the official end of this martial arts competition.
Everyone began to board the airship, preparing to return home.
As for the unlucky Honglong that was killed by Yuxujiang, naturally someone from Jian Ge would come and deal with the body.
After all, it is a third-order extraordinary beast, and the materials all over its body are special materials that can be used to create various extraordinary equipment.
…
On the airship.
Qi Ji was chatting with a few friends.
Su Jingqiu looked at a few people and asked, "Is your stay in the Outer Realm almost over this time?"
Bai Tianhe nodded: "According to the thirty-day rule, it should be halfway through."
Shangquan Yiren also sighed: "What a wonderful journey, the outer realm is indeed magical, but unfortunately I have only just touched the threshold of the seventh stage, and I don't know how long it will take for the next visit."
Qin Zijin smiled and said, "It's okay. As long as you work hard to practice martial arts, I believe that everyone here will eventually be able to become extraordinary and come here to fight side by side."
After a while, Wang Zhige came over again.
He looked at Qi Ji with joy and said, "Congratulations, you have successfully won the first place this year. Now you will be famous in Donghua Continent."
Qi Ji raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Why do you look happier than me?"
Wang Zhige chuckled: "You saved my life, and you are strong. You deserve the first place. You are more suitable than Nie Ming anyway."
He then extended an invitation to Qi Ji again: "I guess I'll be going home soon. To be honest, do you want to come over to our place and have some fun? Don't worry about anything. I promise to treat you well."
Then he looked at Su Jingqiu as if he remembered something and said, "It just so happens that you seem to have negotiated with us through Pavilion Master Yu. You plan to apply to come to our northern border to help slay demons after you become extraordinary, right?"
Su Jingqiu smiled and nodded: "It is true."
Wang Zhige clapped his hands immediately: "See, this is not a coincidence, why don't you all come over and play together."
Qi Ji smiled and said, "I do want to go over and take a look, but unfortunately I haven't entered the extraordinary realm yet, so I can't stay in the outer realm for long. How about you come over to our inner realm and play?"
Wang Zhige touched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "I actually forgot about this. I'll have to do it next time. As for me going to your place, forget it. We from the outer realm are not like you. After achieving transcendence, we can easily travel between the two realms. It's very troublesome for us to go to your place, and the resources we spend are really too wasteful. My brother spent a lot of effort last time he went there, but there was no good effect. It's really not worth it."
While chatting, the forest that would have taken a whole day to cross was returned to Jiange in less than half an hour by airship.
After bidding farewell to the disciples of various major forces, Qi Ji came to the main hall of Jiange.
Under the care of Yu Xujiang and Qin Zijin.
He opened the small box containing the fruit of enlightenment.
