Chapter 10: The Limitless Reward

The entire eastern part of the city belonged to Maple Forest Academy and its affiliated businesses. However, strictly speaking, only the inner courtyard surrounded by a high wall in the center of Dong...Gao Chang Hou Tian Xili, just by his appearance, was a rather scholarly middle-aged man. He was slightly thin and dressed in a proper manner, with nothing particularly eye-catching about him.

At this moment, he clasped his hands together before him and calmly looked at the young man in the square.

Even under the watchful gaze of thousands, he remained composed and confident, his unwavering self-assurance truly inspiring.

Indeed, the young are to be feared.

Jiang Wang's fiefdom, Qingyang Town, is located within the jurisdiction of Rizhao County. And the county magistrate of Rizhao County, Tian An-tai, is the son of his Tian Xili. As long as they don't cause trouble, their relationship won't be bad.

To be frank, on the battlefield of Qiyang, Tian An'tai and Jiang Wang were comrades-in-arms, having fought side by side.

Jiang Wang also went to Qixing Valley for training! The Tian family also gave some benefits at that time, although it was mainly due to the face of Chong Xuan Sheng. But it can be considered a bit of incense affection.

So his attitude was very calm.

Speaking of which, at this Yellow River meeting, two out of the three national prodigies who are fighting for the country are related to Chongxuan. Everyone knows the close friendship between Jiang Wang and Chongxuan Sheng, and Chong Xuan is even a direct descendant of the Chongxuan family.

And these two prodigies also made a big splash on the viewing platform.

The Chong Xuan family has undoubtedly become the most prominent aristocratic family in Great Qi recently.

The content within the tags is empty. Therefore, the translation is:

That heavy cloud of mystic energy hadn't come to observe the ceremony yet, likely out of consideration for keeping a low profile.

In recent years, Chong Xuan Yunbo has attended fewer major events, which in itself is a message. The old master was injured on the battlefield in his early years and could never fully recover. Now over a hundred years old, his vital energy is waning. The heir to the Chong Xuan family should be decided. Currently, he is gradually diminishing his influence, but who will take his place seems undecided.

One is Zhong Xuan Zun, the other is Zhong Xuan Sheng. Even if it were Tian Xili, he would find it hard to choose. What a happy dilemma!

In the renowned Zhonghuan family, known for its talented individuals, Zhonghuan Mingguang stands out as a unique character. Today, he arrives adorned in his finery. He boasts to anyone who will listen that if not for his cousin Zun'er's recent entry into the outer courtyard, Dou Zhao would undoubtedly be no match for him. If only he had two more months to train him properly, winning the top spot would be as easy as taking something from an open bag. While Zun'er is officially ranked second, he is truly first and has effectively already won the top prize...

He kept repeating these words, even muttering them under his breath in front of him.

He probably thought he could get something for his son this way, but little did he know it would only make people laugh.

Though he feigned politeness, Tian Xili was secretly annoyed. He didn't want to be caught up in this charade.

His gaze shifted lightly. He inadvertently met a pair of eyes that glinted with cold light.

The owner of these eyes is quite handsome, dressed elegantly and with a noble bearing. Although his expression is calm, the hatred in his eyes is impossible to conceal - it is Xuan Huai Bo Liu Yingqi.

Tian Xili smiled gently.

The resentment of a defeated dog, what is there to be concerned about

The Liu family couldn't improve their situation no matter how hard they tried, and ultimately got disengaged by the Yan family. It should have been a clean break, with some goodwill left for the future, perhaps allowing the Yan family to lend a hand again. However, Liu Yingqi instead clung onto Yan Fu, a junior member of the Yan family, acting like a nuisance and embarrassing himself. This incident has long become a laughingstock in Qi country's noble circles.

His daughter wouldn't marry anyone other than Yan Fu. Even families of slightly lower status couldn't get her to marry into them.

If a woman is gifted, like Qi Xiao, she wouldn't need an engagement to bind her, nor would she need to rely on anyone else. She could even single-handedly support her family. But that Liu Xiuzhang hasn't shown any signs of genius.

At best, he's just a little stronger than that trash Liu Xuantuo

So Tian Xili smiled even more sincerely.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Such a smile was undoubtedly quite irritating to Liu Yingqi, so he coldly shifted his gaze away.

Ding ding ding!

But I hope you can keep smiling like this.In the midst of the bell's sonata, he thought so.

At this moment, the grand ceremony of offering tribute has reached its climax.

The already-rewarded Chongxuan Zun and his leader, Cao Jie, had both retreated to the side, not vying for the limelight with today's protagonist.

Only Jiang Wang, the sole winner of this year's Guanhetai competition, stood silently in the center of the square.

Behind him stood the majestic Taimiao Temple, and before him was the emperor of the Qi dynasty.

The officials and nobility of Great Qi, as well as the young and old commoners, were all gathered on either side of him, watching him intently.

The bronze bells, struck by court musicians, played majestic music.

Upon hearing its voice, one might see a divine light before their eyes.

Hearing its sound, the ears are like the roar of the sea tide.

As if raindrops were hanging, suspended in the empty valley.

It seemed as if a wind had passed through, sweeping over ten thousand ravines.

The vastness and grandeur of the world gradually draw near in sounds.

Every syllable rests at the most solemn point.

Every tone is majestic and complete.

This piece is called "Fengyuan".

is one of the most solemn sacrificial music in the Daiqi Palace.

Those who are dedicated to the Way, revere Heaven.

Today's performance also carries the meaning of offering sacrifices to our ancestors.
