Long Yuxue nodded slightly, "I'm glad it's nothing serious. I was worried that you'd be down and out after losing the duel!"
After all, Tang Wulin's performance in the finals could be described as extremely poor, though, of course, it could also be interpreted as a result of his opponent's strength!
In any case, if it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep for several days and nights!
But looking at the current situation, he didn't seem to be greatly affected.
Tang Wulin couldn't help but feel emotional, "No, I won't be. After all, I'm now a reserve member of the Blood God Camp!"
Jiang Wuyue couldn't hold back and smacked him on the head, saying irritably, "Yo, look at you acting all high and mighty in front of us!"
Jiang Qiyue expressed some regret, "It's a pity that only the champion's reward includes the precious forging materials for Four-Word Battle Armor. You missed such a great opportunity!"
The metals and materials required for forging Four-Word Battle Armor are each extremely rare, and their prices are exorbitant!
Even a Title Douluo might not be able to afford them in a lifetime!
Tang Wulin still responded without changing his expression, "It's okay. Even if I had the forging materials for the Four-Word Battle Armor, I wouldn't be able to forge it right now. The runner-up's reward is the forging materials for Three-Word Battle Armor, which is just perfect!"
As for whether he really felt that way, that remained unknown!
Jiang Qiyue pursed her lips, "It was supposed to be us consoling you, but now it seems like you're the one comforting us. Anyway, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I've got a pile of things to deal with!"
Jiang Wuyue slapped her forehead and exclaimed, "I need to go too, I almost forgot that today I have to clear the creatures from the S-Grade Abyssal Passage! My teammates are probably waiting for me!"
Long Yuxue also pursed her thin lips, "Wulin, I..."
Before she could finish, Tang Wulin already had an idea and said understandingly, "I get it, everyone go on with your work."
Aside from the Blood God Camp, members of other units were almost always busy. The fact that Long Yuxue and the others could take time to watch his duel and personally come to comfort him meant a lot!
With a simple gesture, everyone then left one after another...
At that moment, Tang Wulin looked towards a certain direction, "Wuyue, you can come out now!"
As his words fell, Ling Wuyue suddenly appeared and walked up to Tang Wulin...
She said a bit awkwardly, "Well... Wulin, I don't really know how to comfort you..."
She paused for a moment and then added, "But it was just a mecha competition, and it's not your area of expertise. If it were a forging competition, I believe you would definitely come out on top!"
Tang Wulin didn't answer but instead asked back, "Wuyue, how is the Battle Armor performing?"
Upon hearing this, Ling Wuyue praised generously, "It's working great, and I've found that when I drive a mecha wearing Battle Armor, it reduces a lot of unnecessary mistakes!"
"Not only that, but if the mecha takes a serious hit, it can also avoid many fatal injuries."
Tang Wulin's eyes lit up, "Wearing Battle Armor while piloting a mecha? I'll have to try that next time!"
He remembered that Sect Master Mu Ye of the Body Sect was, in fact, a Four-Word Battle Armor Master and fought in the red mecha competitions!
Although he was only a ninety-fourth level Title Douluo, with these two capabilities, his combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of a Hyper Douluo!
Ling Wuyue urged eagerly, "Why wait for next time? Let's give it a try now, how about that?"
Tang Wulin hesitated for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "I'd rather not. I just lost the mecha competition, and even though I'm not particularly shaken by it, I'm really not in the mood for a fight!"
Ling Wuyue didn't press and just shrugged her shoulders, "Alright, but I happen to be free today, so I'll just keep you company!"
…
On the other side, the Spirit Pagoda!
The news of Councilor Gu Yue winning the Mecha competition championship had already reached everyone's ears…
Many members of the Spirit Pagoda were discussing in low voices…
"I didn't expect Councilor Gu Yue to be the one to win the Mecha competition championship, truly bringing honor to our Spirit Pagoda!"
"Yes, the people from the federation probably never imagined that the Mecha competition champion would be one of our own from the Spirit Pagoda, they must be fuming with rage now!"
"Who would say otherwise! The rewards for the Mecha competition champion include precious forging materials for Four-Word Battle Armor, I'm so envious of Councilor Gu Yue!"
"Psh, what's there to be envious of, with Councilor Gu Yue's position in the Spirit Pagoda she is certainly not lacking any of those! Her participation in the competition was to prove her own strength!"
Inside the Council Hall…
Leng Yaozhu's gaze swept over all the council members and she began to speak, "I believe all the council members have already received the news of Gu Yue winning the Mecha competition championship, so let me get straight to the point today"
"From today on, Gu Yue will be the next master of the Spirit Pagoda! Does anyone have any objections?"
If anyone dared to object, she would strip them of their council position by tomorrow!
Instantly, a portion of the council members decisively spoke out, "I have no objections. Not only does Councilor Gu Yue have exceptional advantages in the aspect of Martial Soul, but she also possesses extraordinary talent in piloting Mecha. As the next master of the Spirit Pagoda, she is the optimal choice!"
"I agree, with Councilor Gu Yue leading us in the future, the Spirit Pagoda will only develop towards a better direction."
"I also agree, Councilor Gu Yue's contributions to the Spirit Pagoda surpass anyone present here; she naturally deserves the position of the next master!"
"Anyone who disagrees is a criminal against the Spirit Pagoda!"
Hearing these words, those council members who were opposed to Gu Yue further lowered their heads…
Because indeed, they could find no reason to rebut…
Leng Yaozhu nodded in satisfaction, "Since not a single council member is opposed, then it's settled!"
However, a discordant voice from one of the council members arose…
"Pagoda Master, although it's gratifying that Councilor Gu Yue has won the Mecha competition, I must remind you that the envoy from the Douling Empire will be visiting tomorrow at noon!"
Undoubtedly, that statement immediately received skeptical looks from the other council members…
"Today is the day Councilor Gu Yue claimed the championship, why bother mentioning those chaps from the Douling Empire? It's simply an ill omen!"
"Exactly, if you ask me, we should just tell those from the Douling Empire to bugger off directly; the Spirit Pagoda does not welcome them!"
"They killed our members of the Spirit Pagoda, and now they think they can talk peace and negotiate cooperation; it's utterly ridiculous! Pagoda Master, I propose we imprison them and interrogate them thoroughly!"
"Even if they don't spill from their mouths, their memories won't lie!"
Leng Yaozhu's expression became serious as well, "I have my own arrangements for this, and I will surely find out whether the attack on the transport team has anything to do with the Douling Empire!"
"But I also ask all council members not to take action on their own accord, otherwise, don't blame me for being unsparing!"
Of course, the council members dared not defy her, "Yes, Pagoda Master!!"
The former dared to remove even her most trusted person, Qiangu Qingfeng from the position of Vice Tower Master; if these council members provoked her, there'd certainly be no good outcome!
