The surrounding competitors also expressed their congratulations to Ye Fan. Ye Fan nodded in response one by one.
After waiting for about an hour, the participants of the heaven level smelting trial had finally decided their victor. An old man with a beard and eyebrows had obtained the final victory, happily walking up the viewing platform to receive his token.
Ye Fan couldn't help but sigh. This old man was at least a few hundred years old, and he still fought so hard just to get a chance to progress to a higher level. What reason did youngsters like them not work hard?
However, it was likely that the treatment this old man received after arriving at the Moon God Hall wasn't exactly the same as the elders. The young men were truly learning from them, and the old man was most likely discussing the Dao with the elders of the Moon God Hall.
Just like that, the curtains of the Heavenly Stairway competition were drawn. The next event was a celebratory banquet, which was being held in the most bustling palace in Saint Dragon's Villa. It was said that the Emperor would personally attend.
This was a grand celebration in and of itself. In addition to the envoys from the Moon God Hall, the celebration was even more grand.
After nightfall, the celebration was held as scheduled. The emperor was seated on both sides of the hall, while Yue Xinghan and Yue Tianyao were seated on both sides. Below them were the imperial officials and dignitaries on both sides of the hall.
After a round of useless toasts, the Emperor was the first to leave the stage. Because he had been here the entire time, the influential figures and famous figures below could not completely let go. The atmosphere of the celebration ceremony had always revealed a tinge of seriousness.
This was the majesty that an Emperor needed, so the Emperor would not intentionally break it. He could only leave the stage early.
Not long after the emperor left, the First Prince and Shen Wan arrived before Ye Fan and whispered something into his ear.
The Emperor summoned the Emperor!
Ye Fan's eyes lit up. The Emperor didn't say anything just now, but he summoned him alone after the departure of the court. It seemed that something must have happened.
Ye Fan nodded and followed the First Prince and Shen Wan to the back of the hall. He saw the Emperor lazily lying on a bench. It was a sight that few people had ever seen before.
"Sit down!"
The Emperor of the Tenglong Empire gently waved his hand and let everyone sit on both sides of him. He then shifted his gaze onto Ye Fan and said softly, "You must be Ye Fan. I've heard about your affairs. A hero really has a young man!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I really can't take it. The young man can barely be considered to be out of the circle. As for this hero, I don't dare to be one."
Ye Fan bowed towards the Emperor of the Tenglong Empire.
"Able to do so! If you can't live up to this title, then I really don't know who can afford it. " Then he turned to Shen Wan, smiled and said, "Old Shen, you have such a nephew, why didn't you let him come earlier? "Since Dao has only received the dragon now, it seems that you want to keep it a secret."
"His Majesty the emperor is joking. Why would I hide my private matters? Honestly speaking, I'm not too clear on his strength. How could I have the time to care about such things? My mind is entirely focused on the business."
Shen Wan chuckled.
"This nephew of yours cannot learn business from you. A genius in martial arts like him should become a martial general in the future. This is the true usage of a martial artist, don't you think so, Old Shen?"
The Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Empire asked with a smile.
"This... It's up to him to decide what he's interested in. When the time comes, he'll make his own choices, and I won't interfere. "
Shen Wan chuckled.
Ye Fan looked at the two of them and muttered in his heart.
The two of them were obviously very familiar with each other, but to be playing ball right now. The emperor wanted him to serve the Soaring Dragon Empire, hoping that Shen Wan would add fuel to the fire.
Ye Fan acted as if he didn't understand as he watched the two of them kicking the ball back and forth.
In the end, the Emperor of the Tenglong Empire first gave in and directly went to Ye Fan.
"Ye Fan, we have clearly seen your talent. Once you return from the Moon God Hall, you will definitely have a bright future." However, if your performance is too stunning, the Moon God Hall will definitely think of a way to keep you here. At that time, I hope that you can come back and serve our Soaring Dragon Empire. "
The Emperor of the Tenglong Empire said to Ye Fan earnestly.
"Of course. Since I am a member of the Soaring Dragon Empire, even if I can stay in the Moon God Hall in the future, I will think of a way to help our Soaring Dragon Empire."
Ye Fan replied with a smile. Right now, he only had a little more than a year left to his three year agreement with Murong Xin'er, and he might be able to escape back to the mainland before he finishes cultivating in the Moon God Hall. Since the Emperor of the Tenglong Dragon Empire had this intention, Ye Fan would naturally not miss it.
However, Ye Fan's answer became another meaning in the Emperor's ears.
In the eyes of the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Empire, Ye Fan still intended to stay at the Moon God Hall, so he just gave him a promise.
"Ye Fan, I know the principle of humans walking up high. People like you definitely want to cultivate to the peak of martial arts." However, the waters of the ZhongTian Realm are very deep, they are not like our Dragon Capital. At that time, no matter what decision you make, you will have to think it over carefully. "How about this, I'll give you the title of a great general riding a bicycle right now, a third rank. I'll give you a promotion after you've finished learning and come back!"
The Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Empire thought for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.
