Chapter 750 - 710: You Don’t Move Either, Just Stand There (Part 2)
Chapter 750: Chapter 710: You Don’t Move Either, Just Stand There (Part 2)
Looking back now, he regrets it immensely.
They are all hoping that Shen Han didn’t hear or didn’t notice who said it.
The competition has ended.
Cangye Country took the lead, Lanyu Country came second, Aofeng Country third, and Purple Rudder Country last.
Prince Cheng, as the representative, went to handle the resource allocation issue.
The participants from Cangye Country were invited to rest at the tavern.
Tonight, there would surely be a grand celebratory banquet.
Previously adored by everyone, Mo Wanshui was now being ignored.
During the competition, Mo Wanshui wanted to secretly cut down Cangye Country’s flag, which everyone remembered.
Everyone also remembered Mo Wanshui’s earlier remarks.
In public, he directly insulted Shen Han and the other advisors of the Prince Mansion.
Covered in stench himself, yet shamelessly calling others stinky, calling others dog manure.
Also, the words he said in the competition arena were clearly remembered by everyone.
Mo Wanshui actually said to Shen Han that Shen Han had no talent or potential in cultivation.
Insisting on walking the path of cultivation would only lead to a bloody head.
Now it seems it was just that Mo Wanshui’s vision wasn’t enough; he couldn’t understand.
He had no ability to see through others’ potential and began to spout nonsense.
Now, a group of people was watching his joke.
Mo Wanshui, Venerable Mo, what a joke of a Venerable.
The people of Cangye Country left, and no one went to call him.
Everyone understood clearly that whoever stayed close to Mo Wanshui now was standing on the opposite side of Shen Han.
Mo Wanshui didn’t even have the qualifications to spar with Shen Han.
Who would want to offend Shen Han for Mo Wanshui now?
In the competition arena, Xie Yu resentfully stood up and glanced at Mo Wanshui.
In his heart, Xie Yu was somewhat resentful.
It was all because of Mo Wanshui’s previous attitude towards Shen Han that led him to also look down on Shen Han.
That’s why he lost face.
However, in the end, Xie Yu didn’t say a word and left the arena alone.
Seeing Mo Wanshui’s miserable appearance, whatever he said wouldn’t register with him.
On Lanyu Country’s side, after Xie Yu returned, he was immediately surrounded by people.
In the conversation, there was concern and a strong curiosity.
After all, during the competition, Shen Han controlled Xie Yu with just one move.
Xie Yu, who was at the peak of the Snow Mountain Realm, held a very high status in Lanyu Country.
Even though he appeared young due to his techniques, his strength was second only to the sect leaders and elders of the religious orders.
Yet such a strong individual couldn’t withstand even a single move from Shen Han.
Facing the concern from others, Xie Yu gave no answer and went into the tent alone.
Actually, Xie Yu was still fine; he hadn’t mocked Shen Han too much in public.
In contrast, Mo Wanshui appeared even more ridiculous.
Mo Wanshui still stood in the competition arena.
Once known for acting as a high being, he now looked like a clown in a drama, extremely laughable.
Mo Wanshui was already a bit at a disadvantage when sparring with Xie Yu.
And Xie Yu, when facing Shen Han, lost in a single move, and people didn’t even see how Xie Yu was defeated.
Only when they regained awareness did they see Xie Yu stepped underfoot.
Xie Yu wasn’t even a match for Shen Han; what could Mo Wanshui do with such a gap in strength?
Before the competition began, he repeatedly insulted Shen Han in front of everyone and humiliated the other advisors of the Prince Mansion.
Calling them dog manure, calling them stinky, was all just an act.
His words about waiting for death now seemed even more idiotic in hindsight.
Talking about disturbing the flowers and grass while waiting for death, now that his aura faded, these words only provoke laughter.
Not mentioning others, even Mo Wanshui himself now found himself extremely laughable.
During the competition, telling Shen Han he had no talent in cultivation and should give up.
In reality, he couldn’t even withstand Shen Han’s pressure.
When the pressure fell on him, he felt even moving an inch was life-threatening.
Shen Han’s talent in cultivation far surpassed his own by an unknown margin.
Remembering the things he just said, Mo Wanshui felt an impulse to smash his head against the wall.
Pretending to guide others, not knowing his own strength was far inferior to the others.
Around the arena, people pointed out and talked about the disheartened Mo Wanshui.
Previously, Mo Wanshui was always called Venerable.
But now, these spectators referred to him directly by name, calling him Mo Wanshui.
On the watching platform, the messenger boy Mo Wanshui brought also instantly fell from favor.
Previously, relying on Mo Wanshui, even as just a child, he was supported and respected by everyone.
With Mo Wanshui’s fall from favor, others’ attitudes toward this messenger boy changed instantly.
Perhaps this experience would teach the boy that the world isn’t so easy.
The more arrogant you are in power, the more uncomfortable you will be when you lose power.
Lin City Tavern was already getting busier.
The Prince Mansion had already arranged for the tavern to prepare a grand banquet.
Cangye Country had won the top position in today’s competition.
This celebratory feast had to be arranged.
Moreover, it was surprisingly not Mo Wanshui who brought about this victory.
Unexpectedly, it was thanks to Shen Han that they achieved this victory.
But before the competition, Shen Han suffered numerous grievances.
Prince Cheng, recalling earlier, always had a relatively decent attitude, but when matters arose, he always made Shen Han swallow the grievances.
This offense needed to be atoned for.
Originally, there were many tasks needing attention today, especially the numerous resources and interests won, which required Prince Cheng’s presence.
But with matters on his mind, Prince Cheng delegated these tasks to others.
He felt his primary task now was to find a way to forge a positive relationship with Shen Han.
Defeating Xie Yu so easily, Shen Han’s competence could already be on par with the old monsters of the sects.
Even as a Prince, he was eager to befriend such a powerful figure.
Befriending might not even be fitting; wooing might be more accurate.
Meanwhile, the steward hurriedly approached.
"Prince, this gentleman is named Shen, given name Han."
At this moment, the steward felt greatly relieved, thankful that the registration was done initially and that he carried the notebook with him.
If he didn’t even know Shen Han’s name, pleasing him would be out of the question.
Prince Cheng also sighed in relief.
Previously, he had always called Shen Han by the title of Mr., without mentioning a surname first.
Luckily, he hadn’t exposed this, or it would have been embarrassing.
"Return to the mansion first and prepare the rewards. As soon as Mr. Shen returns, have them delivered to his room immediately."
The Prince finished saying, suddenly thinking of something else.
"Oh, and prepare a superior room.
Previously, due to Mo Wanshui’s meddling, the advisors were all driven outside the mansion.
Remember to prepare a superior room for all the advisors.
Of course, Mr. Shen’s must be the best."
"Rest assured, Prince, I understand what needs to be done."
As the steward spoke, he also retreated.
For this steward who had been with him for many years, Prince Cheng still had trust in his heart.
These internal affairs should be handled well.
Now the key is himself.
The evening banquet is the most important.
At 5:00 PM, everyone had entered the tavern’s loft.
The taverns in Lin City were experienced, as every year, one nation would host a celebratory feast on this day.
Preparations were already made beforehand.
Compared to Mo Wanshui’s various odd behaviors, Shen Han made no bizarre requests.
When the time came, Shen Han joined everyone to depart.
Previously, when Shen Han walked beside everyone, perhaps they felt nothing.
But now, it seemed they all felt somewhat uneasy.
Even the companion advisors who had been together for quite some days unconsciously lowered their heads in front of Shen Han.
Everything changed once Shen Han revealed his strength.
No words or actions were necessary.
Others, upon seeing Shen Han, could no longer behave as before.
Such strength no longer belonged to the same tier.
