Chapter 317 Award Ceremony (Part 1)

Jindian Hotel, Zhilan Community.

This morning, Liu Zhe, Feng Lei, Rex, Melissa and Charlotte, five regular players who participated in the Empire Competition gathered together. In addition, Deputy Dean Tae-sung, who could not hide his excitement.

The reason why everyone chose to gather at this time when the sky just lighted up is undoubtedly because today is the award ceremony of the Empire Magic Competition. According to usual practice, the top three academies of the current generation must attend this ceremony.

Last year, even in the past few decades, Tianyou Academy has not participated in any award ceremony. Even at the peak of glory, Tianyou Academy is only the eighth-ranked college. It is undoubtedly impossible to participate in the award ceremony that only the top three colleges can participate. Whether it is the past students or the vice president Tae-sung himself, the idea was the same back then.

However, Vice President Tae-sung did not expect that in his lifetime, he would be able to see his college attending the award ceremony and that his dreams would come true. He would take it for granted, but it would be difficult for him to not be excited now.

"Do I have to dress like this?" Liu Zhe looked at his outfit helplessly, his tone was obviously full of reluctance.

Unlike the previous T-shirts and jeans, Liu Zhe wore a light blue magic robe. In addition to the school badge of Tianyou Academy, the magic robe has a simple style and simple lines. However, although there is no gorgeous lace decoration, such a magic robe has a faint elegance. At this time, Liu Zhe wore it on her body, which had a more temperament that she usually did not have.

Liu Zhe stretched out his hands and feet uncomfortable, but he never expected that one day he would wear a magic robe again.

Wearing this outfit is naturally Taishen’s strong demand. According to what Taishen said just now, even if he refuses to wear the magic robe of the Academy, he cannot wear strange clothes to attend the award ceremony!

Not far away from Liu Zhe, Feng Lei was wearing the same magic robe. As before, her mouth was still unforgivable, "This outfit is much more normal than the clothes you usually wear... No, can you say what you usually wear be called clothes?"

"Yes, sister thinks you look much better with your clothes like this. Hehe, you are two or three times more handsome than usual." Melissa smiled playfully and also praised Liu Zhe's outfit.

"Tsk tsk, brother, just change it back like this. The clothes you wore before were purely self-indulgent, I don't understand why you were so persistent." Rex then expressed his opinion.

After hearing what the three of them said, Liu Zhe shook his head without any objection and said firmly: "It's as uncomfortable to make me dress like this as I was killing me. Only today, I will change it back immediately after the award ceremony."

"Freak." Everyone except Liu Zhe actually expressed the same opinion.

Tae-sung had no intention of correcting Liu Zhe's strange habits and said, "You can wear whatever you want after today, but at the award ceremony later, Liu Zhe, you must wear normal clothes to attend."

In between the words, Tai Sung was particularly serious about the word "normal", which was self-evident. It was obviously saying that the clothes Liu Zhe usually wore were abnormal, at least from the perspective of the public.

After hearing what Tae-sung said, Liu Zhe shrugged helplessly. Although he was reluctant, he could only feel wronged for the time being.

Tae-sung looked at the time and immediately said, "Although it's a bit early now, today's ceremony is very important, and it's even a day that can be included in the history of Tianyou College. We should set off quickly and must not let people wait."

Today is a very important day, the first place in the Empire Competition. This is the first time that Tianyou Academy has won such an honor since its founding, which is of great significance!

Seeing Tai Sung's anxious look, Liu Zhe and others naturally would not refuse his proposal. It doesn't matter if it's late or earlier.

Then, under the hurried leadership of Taicheng, everyone left Zhilan Community and headed to the award ceremony location - Lieyang Castle.

※

Lieyang Castle, this is the most important place for the entire imperial capital and even the entire Lieyang Empire. It is the residence of Emperor Ogden today, the political important place of the Lieyang Empire, the place where all the high-level leaders of the empire gather, is...

When Liu Zhe and others were led by Tai Sung, looking at the endless towering city wall and the vague shadow that could be seen from afar, Liu Zhe felt shocked again.

Although the distance is still far away, Liu Zhe can still realize the towering height of Lieyang Castle. Since he arrived in the Yongmo Continent, Lieyang Castle must be the tallest building he has ever seen. In the previous life, it is at least one hundred floors!

Not to mention civilians like Liu Zhe and Rex, even the two Earl daughters, Melissa and Charlotte, were the first time they were so close to Lieyang Castle, even if it was just a wall on the periphery.

As the most important place in an empire, Lieyang Castle is naturally not a place to enter at will. Unless there is an emperor summoned, only nobles with a title above the earl are qualified to enter Lieyang Castle without prior application. Moreover, the earl referred to here does not include the earl, which means that it must be a marquis and the duke must have that qualification.

The strict control of the entry of Lieyang Castle is still the case for nobles, not to mention civilians. Generally, residents cannot even get close to the area around Lieyang Castle for a hundred miles. If they break into it without authorization, it is a serious crime in the empire. It is lucky to not be sentenced to death directly. It is common to be imprisoned for more than ten years.

At this time, with Taicheng's leadership, Liu Zhe and others successfully stepped into the range of 100 miles. Just when they were inspected by the guards, Liu Zhe once again recognized the heritage of an empire. In Lieyang Castle, a guard in charge of guards actually had the strength of level ten, and such guards were at least three digits around the entire Lieyang Castle!

What a terrifying number of three-digit level 10 magicians, and these powerful beings are just responsible for the lowest work of guarding and patroling?

Of course, the statement that exceeds the three-digit number is something that Liu Zhe heard from Melissa that in fact, it is more or less, and that is not something that Liu Zhe can know now.

"..." A solemn feeling in my heart. The more I saw the profound background of the empire's top leaders, the more I felt depressed and uneasy. After all, he offended many people along the way. Not to mention yesterday's Rona, the Rocky brothers, or Barnett, the vice president of Mountain Academy, they said that there were many people in Tianyou Academy thinking about him, and even sent someone to sneak into the academy to kill him!

The time when Feng Lei met at Jingxin Lake, if it weren't for the hidden cloak, Liu Zhe would probably have suffered at that time.

The strength is far from enough! Liu Zhe deeply realized this fact.

After passing the inspection of the city wall gate, everyone entered the range of the castle and entered the area within the city wall. However, Taicheng did not continue to lead Liu Zhe and others to fly, but walked all the way. It was not that Taicheng was petty and saved magic, but that the empire strictly stipulated that flying was not allowed in Lieyang Castle.

After entering the city wall, Liu Zhe and others are currently walking on a wide road, with a width of about twenty meters. On the left and right sides of the road are filled with flowers, plants and trees. According to Taicheng, following this road, you can reach the Lieyang Fortress by moving along this road.

He was speechless all the way, perhaps influenced by the solemn atmosphere around him. From entering the area of ​​Lieyang Castle until now, even Rex, who usually talks the most, did not say a word abnormally, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Ten miles, twenty miles, thirty miles... As time goes by, Liu Zhe has forgotten how far he has walked. After watching from side to side, the flowers, plants and trees around him seem to have not changed, and the scenery remains unchanged, making people numb.

...

...

This journey was far beyond imagination. In the end, Liu Zhe walked for nearly an hour after a quick step, and finally arrived at the Lieyang Castle in front of him.

At close range, I observed Lieyang Castle. It was a towering castle. It was made of stone bricks. Most of the places were gray and white. It was not as elegant as I imagined, but it had a sense of vicissitudes of history.

Before we arrived at Lieyang Castle, everyone felt a sigh. Even if we were flying, it would take at least twenty minutes to go there.

"Do you have to leave again when you go back?" A murmur, looking at the majestic Lieyang Castle in front of you, Liu Zhe no longer felt emotion in his heart, but was thinking about this matter.

Rex wiped off the sweat from his forehead and complained, "I'll go! Which bastard has covered the Lieyang Castle so far? I wish him no good death!"

"The history of Lieyang Castle has hundreds of years. The person who built it had long been dead, right?" Melissa complained casually.

Looking at Rex and Melissa with some concern, Tae-sung said, "Ahem, please, you two must be more at peace later, don't make a fool of yourself in our college."

Just as Taiseong spoke out to remind him, a white-bearded old man slowly walked out of the stone gate that was as high as twenty meters high and said straight to the point: "Guests from Tianyou Academy, please come with me."

In the words, the old man with white beards had complex, surprised, and some indescribable meanings. He was filled with various emotions for this team of champions that emerged.

Looking at the white-bearded old man in front of him, Liu Zhe felt a little numb. He was at least a level ten strong man. Although he had not reached level 11, judging by the strong aura, he should be at the peak of level ten.

Liu Zhe sighed in his heart and thought to himself: So is level 10 magicians so common?

He did not doubt how the other party recognized their identities. At this time, he was greeted by the old man with white beard. Taicheng lowered his head slightly and bowed to the other party politely. Of course, this is just a general etiquette. With Taicheng's identity, he would not have to make much respectful etiquette to the other party.
Chapter completed!
