Strongest replication

Looking at the atmosphere on the stage reaching its climax, not only the chief eunuch was surprised, but also the four clan leaders who followed the chief eunuch onto the stage were also very surprised. Because they didn't know why the people below were so excited.

As for saying that it was because of the chief eunuch, they would never believe it even if they were beaten to death.

"Cough!" Perhaps because the atmosphere below was too strong and the scene was too noisy, the chief eunuch could only cough hard a few times to signal the people below to be quiet.

After the people below were quiet, the chief eunuch raised the imperial edict in his hand and announced the ranking of this competition loudly.

"The annual hunting competition of Qi State has now come to a perfect end after fifteen days of fierce competition. At the same time, the performances of the children of the families are very exciting. Next, I will announce the ranking of this competition."

Speaking of this, as if to mobilize the emotions of the people on the scene, the chief eunuch paused slightly, and after arousing everyone's appetite, he announced:

"Tenth place, Lin Xuanping of the Lin family!"

"Ninth place, Liu Zhiwei of the Liu family!"

"Eighth place, Qi Yiqiang, the ninth prince of the royal family!"

"Seventh place, Wu Jianwei of the Wu family!"

"Sixth place, Tian Jing of the Tian family!"

As the chief eunuch announced the rankings of sixth to tenth place, everyone under the high platform showed a trace of doubt and puzzlement. Because they really didn't know what the following five rankings were based on.

Chu Zhongtian guessed some reasons for this. The rankings of sixth to tenth place are probably the result of the four major families compromising with each other and benefiting from each other.

The tenth-ranked Lin family is a subsidiary family of the Liu family, and the seventh-ranked Wu family and the sixth-ranked Tian family are both subsidiary families of the Wang family. Although the rankings are given to these two second-rate families, the profit quota will probably end up in the hands of the Liu and Wang families.

The only thing that makes Chu Zhongtian dissatisfied is that the Chu family did not get any benefit from the profit distribution this time.

However, thinking about it in a flash, there are three children of the Chu family in the top five. If there are also children of the Chu family in the back five, or a subsidiary family of the Chu family, I am afraid that the other three families will not agree.

Such an arrangement is both reasonable and can satisfy everyone, so why not do it!

However, the most depressed one among them is probably Wang Hai, the patriarch of the Wang family!

After all, the young generation represented by Wang Chao was completely wiped out, and the profit distribution only accounted for 20%. This is too much of a blow and impact on their family. I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to recover without a few years.

Chu Zhongtian is not the only smart person at the scene. Many contestants have seen the trick. However, this was a decision made jointly by the four clan leaders and a dozen second-rate clan leaders, so they had to bear it even if they were dissatisfied.

After everyone digested the changes caused by the ranking just now, the chief eunuch announced the ranking of the top five.

"Fifth place, Qi Yilong, the fifth son of the royal family!"

"Fourth place, Chu Zhongba of the Chu family!"

"Third place, Liu Yongjun of the Liu family!"

"Second place, Chu Yuping of the Chu family!"

After announcing the rankings from second to fifth, the chief eunuch stopped announcing, put away the edict in his hand, and retreated to the edge of the platform.

Then, Qi Heng, the king of Qi, walked to the center of the platform, took out an identical imperial edict from his sleeve, opened it and announced loudly.

"The first place in the hunting competition of Qi State, Chu Zhongtian of the Chu family!"

After Qi Heng announced that Chu Zhongtian was the first place in this hunting competition, the audience cheered immediately, and his popularity far exceeded that of Liu Yongjun.

Chu Zhongtian's popularity surprised the four big figures on the platform. Because they didn't expect that Chu Zhongtian, who had emerged suddenly, would have such a great influence in such a short time.

Liu Xiaozong, Wang Hai and Qi Heng looked calm, but there were some waves in their hearts.

The one with the biggest waves in his heart was Liu Xiaozong. Because the most influential person of the younger generation was Liu Yongjun of his Liu family, but now it has become Chu Zhongtian. Does this indicate that the Chu family will rise again?

In fact, the reason why Chu Zhongtian's reputation is so high mainly comes from three aspects.

The first aspect is that he won the championship of this hunting competition.

Qi State has held hunting competitions for hundreds of years, and there are countless geniuses who finally won the championship, but Chu Zhongtian is probably the first one to win the championship at the fourth level of the Qi Refining Stage.

There is no one before, and as for whether there will be no one after, it may take at least a hundred years to know.

Geniuses who can create miracles are the most likely to be pursued by the world, and Chu Zhongtian just fits this condition!

The second aspect is the foil of Liu Yongjun.

Originally, Liu Yongjun had always been the strongest of the younger generation in Qi State and the most admired idol. In particular, he defeated Qi Yilong, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, with the strength of the seventh level of Qi Refining, which made his reputation reach its peak.

But just when his reputation reached its peak, his subsequent actions caused his reputation to plummet, even directly to the freezing point.

Chu Zhongtian was majestic in battle, gentle and polite when talking to others, and generous and open-minded, which made it easier for others to like him.

The third aspect was that he agreed to the challenge initiated by Liu Yongjun without hesitation.

Liu Yongjun and Chu Zhongtian were both masters who could challenge beyond their ranks. Liu Yongjun defeated Qi Yilong, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, with the strength of the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Chu Zhongtian easily killed Tu Shen, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, with the strength of the fourth level of Qi Refining.

The battle between two young peerless masters is the easiest to attract everyone's attention.

After the cheers stopped, Qi Heng continued: "I will send someone to deliver the rewards for the top ten players later."

Then, Qi Yilong retreated to the edge of the platform, and Chu Tianyun walked to the middle of the platform with an excited look on his face, clenched his left fist and raised it, and announced loudly: "The annual hunting competition is officially over, and it's over!"

Who will announce the end of the hunting competition is actually a great honor, and this is an honor that every clan leader hopes to get.

And the winner of this honor is the clan leader of the first place in the hunting competition every year.

In the past dozen times, Liu Xiaozong of the Liu family has always been the last to announce the end of the competition, and this has been the case every year for more than ten years. Suddenly, he didn't have to announce it himself, and Liu Xiaozong was quite uncomfortable.

Looking at Chu Tianyun standing in the center of the platform, Liu Xiaozong cast a resentful look at Liu Yongjun. Because the biggest culprit for losing this honor this time was Liu Yongjun.
