In the camera, Han Li quickly bowed his body, and before the two of them could react, he stood up again, still with a hint of apology on his face.
Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen, their outstretched hands stopped in mid-air, as stiff as the smiles on their faces.
Han Li had already turned around again, taking away the camera, and his voice was heard again throughout the audience: "As a junior, I am a little ashamed to be the second speaker, but I cannot refuse the kindness of His Majesty Xue Ye and His Highness Qing He, so I have no choice but to shamelessly say hello to everyone in advance."
When Han Li's voice fell, the effect on the scene was completely different from that of Emperor Xue Ye. In addition to thunderous applause, there was also light-hearted laughter that could not be concealed.
No matter they were nobles or commoners, they were all very satisfied with this. The attitude shown by Han Li was undoubtedly a respect for the Tiandou Empire.
Moreover, unlike the usual serious demeanor of the Spirit Hall to the outside world, everyone can feel the same friendliness and politeness from him as His Highness Qinghe, and naturally their liking for him increases greatly.
No wonder His Royal Highness the Saint Son and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are such close friends, because they are the same kind of people. This is the thought of the Tiandou commoners present.
The applause at the scene became more intense.
Behind him, Emperor Xue Ye was also very satisfied with this. Han Li's actions and words just now sent a very clear message.
It would be best if the relationship with the two sects was average or even not very good. If the relationship was good, he would not be able to sleep.
As for Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen, they could only accept it with a pinch of their noses.
At least they gave him face on the surface, right? After all, they had the worst relationship with the Spirit Hall? At that time, they clearly stood on the side of the Haotian Sect.
In front of the stands, after the applause stopped, Han Li still maintained his previous demeanor.
"Okay, now that I've introduced myself, I won't say much. You all paid to come here to watch the exciting games and the future of the Tiandou Empire, not to listen to me rambling on."
"Those who can participate in the Soul Master Competition must be the elites of the Heaven Dou Empire. Let us cheer for them and look forward to their performance."
After Han Li finished speaking, applause broke out again in the audience, and it was more sincere than before, which could be seen from the intensity of the audience's applause.
However, Han Li heard a different voice.
"Your Highness, please say a few more words. We love to hear them."
After a moment of silence, the venue was filled with laughter and applause again, and the atmosphere became even more lively.
Han Li glanced in the direction where the voice came from and recognized that the person who shouted was one of Sarath's confidants. Well, he was quite good at creating an atmosphere.
However, he still smiled and saluted, leaving the range of the loudspeaker. It would be fine to operate it appropriately, but there would be no need to do it more than once.
Watching him walking back with the appearance of a handsome young man, Ning Fengzhi still had a warm smile on his face, but he was cursing in his heart.
He had prepared a long speech, and Han Li didn't even mention the most basic talent recruitment. How could he, a cooperative sect of the Tiandou Empire, speak? If he said anything, wouldn't it be an insult to Emperor Xue Ye? If he didn't say anything, he would have to spend more manpower and resources to contact these people later.
What a hateful little devil born from the Spirit Hall! Ning Fengzhi felt that his mentality had undergone a subtle change.
He had fought with Bibi Dong many times in the past, but he had never felt so aggrieved. On the contrary, Han Li did not make any big moves, but used a lot of small tricks that were not presentable, but they just made him uncomfortable.
Feeling the active spiritual power in Ning Fengzhi's head, Han Li felt comfortable.
He did not forget that this old guy had flattered him before at Qian Renxue's place, but they had never met at that time.
Also, he reiterated that he never bears grudges.
As Han Li walked back to his seat, the host's voice sounded again: "Next, please invite the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect's leader, Mr. Ning Fengzhi, to give a speech for this competition."
Amid the applause, Ning Fengzhi also stood up with a smile and walked forward gracefully. However, he had already made a decision, and with Han Li's speech before him, he could only modify his own speech.
In front of the loudspeaker, Ning Fengzhi tried his best to concise the long speech he had prepared.
In the seat behind him, Han Li had just sat down when he heard a cold snort from behind him.
He looked back and saw Jian Douluo looking at him unkindly.
"Your Highness, it would be better to focus on practicing these little tricks."
Han Li laughed. Was he complaining on behalf of Ning Fengzhi?
"Well, Sword Douluo is right. I wonder when Sect Master Ning will break through to Soul Douluo?"
After saying this, Han Li seemed to have just remembered the situation of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. A trace of shame appeared on his face, and he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I forgot that the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda has a martial spirit defect."
Jian Douluo's face darkened. How could he curse at others and expose their shortcomings?
Although their conversation was very quiet, one has to know that there were soul masters all around with sharp ears and eyes, so how could they not hear it?
But whether it was Xue Ye or Yu Yuan Zhen, both of them sat upright with no expression on their faces, except that their arms slightly clenched the armrests, revealing their true psychological activities.
His Royal Highness the Saint Son speaks so sweetly. In the past, even when he sat in the first row, he was always the suppressed one and his face never looked good.
Jian Douluo didn't want to talk anymore. He also realized that even if Feng Zhi talked to this kid, he might not get any benefit. It would be better for him to just be a thug.
He stopped talking, but Han Li didn't stop: "However, it's not a big deal that the martial soul is defective and can't break through. Maybe if I find time for Sect Master Ning to talk to me, this matter can be resolved?"
After saying that, he smiled at Jian Douluo and turned around.
Xue Ye and Yu Yuanzhen didn't take his words seriously when they heard them, thinking it was just a mockery from Han Li.
However, Sword Douluo who was looking at Han Li's expression was trembling wildly. Judging from the expression on this boy's face, he was serious. No, maybe he was lying.
Jian Douluo was so confused, he couldn't tell the difference, he really couldn't.
Forget it, I'll tell Feng Zhi about this later and let him judge. This kid was born in 1931, he can't beat him.
In front, Ning Fengzhi's speech had also ended. Considering the impact, he gave up the idea of open recruitment and instead stood up for the Tiandou Empire, making it difficult for Emperor Xue Ye to stop smiling.
Given the situation, why should I worry about not being able to fight against the gods?
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
However, Ning Fengzhi had no intention of leaving. Instead, he turned and looked at Han Li.
"This is also the first time for Saint Han Li to attend the Soul Master Competition, right? And you are about the same age as the other students. Do you have any favorite teams? You can only name one."
You do the first day, I do the fifteenth. It's good that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is harmonious and makes money, but do you really think that I, Ning Fengzhi, have no temper? Little Saint Son, ridiculous, ridiculous, Bibi Dong has never taken advantage of him in all these years, Ning Fengzhi thought confidently.
Everyone knows that Tianshui College is now related to Han Li, but it is also on the territory of the Tiandou Empire. It's a choice between the two. If you come, there will always be people who are unhappy.
When it comes to small tricks, Ning Fengzhi is no less capable than anyone else throughout his life.
In mid-air, the camera on the screen turned to Han Li as Ning Fengzhi asked the question.
On the side, a waiter had already thoughtfully brought a microphone. They were prepared for any unexpected events and had a backup.
Han Li was not flustered. He calmly took the microphone from the waiter, nodded to express his gratitude, and then looked at Ning Fengzhi.
"To be honest with Sect Master Ning, I came here in a hurry and don't know much about many teams, but I trust His Majesty Xue Ye's judgment, so I choose Tiandou Royal Academy Team Two."
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment before continuing, "I heard that Sect Master Ning's daughter is also among them. I'm sure you have confidence in them, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have let your daughter join them. This should also be your choice, right?"
"Since Sect Master Ning has the same idea, I am of course optimistic about them and look forward to their performance."
Han Li looked at Ning Fengzhi with a smile. He had already made his move, so how could he not be on guard against the other party causing trouble? If you have the guts, keep asking. Later, I will represent your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect as well.
Ning Fengzhi was choked and looked at him deeply, then gave up asking further questions. It was too tiring to communicate with him. The key was that he could not be too aggressive. The other party was young and he could not lose his composure.
"What Han Shengzi said makes sense. I naturally support them. Next, let's invite Master Yu to come out."
Ning Fengzhi smiled again, interrupted the host, took the initiative to throw the topic to Yu Yuanzhen, and walked towards his seat.
Yu Yuanzhen's eyes swept over the two of them, and he stood up decisively and walked forward. He didn't want to communicate with them, he just did what he should do.
Yu Yuanzhen was giving a speech at the front, and the response in other areas was quite enthusiastic, but in the rest area of the participating academy, the expressions of the team members were a little strange.
Just before the opening, Tianshui College had a dispute with the Royal Fighting Team 2. They were at the scene, and combined with what Han Li and Ning Fengzhi just said, it was quite interesting.
On the stage, Yu Yuanzhen decisively extended an olive branch to the students at the end of his speech, "You guys can be polite, I'm here to attract talent, and we'll each do our own thing."
As for Xue Ye, he had done the same thing before and there was nothing wrong with it.
As Yu Yuanzhen also walked to the back, the competition finally officially started.
The opening match had been decided in advance, so there was no need to draw lots. However, the other opponents still had to be drawn on the spot, which was one of the reasons why these colleges had to be present today.
Amid cheers, Prince Xue Qinghe appeared at the front of the stands and began the final process before the opening game.
"In the first round of the preliminaries, Canghui College will face Zixing College."
"In the first round of the preliminaries, Auckland College will face Flame Glory College."
…
Following Xue Qinghe's announcement, there was a burst of discussion in the meeting hall.
