The reward for winning the championship? Xue Qinghe's promise!
Just after everyone left the arena, they encountered an extremely luxurious carriage. The carriage was decorated with platinum patterns and the Swan emblem exclusive to the Heaven Dou Empire, making it clear at a glance that it was a royal carriage.
Several royal knights stood guard in front of the carriage. The royal knights were arranged in two rows, with a handsome young man standing in the middle.
It was Xue Qinghe.
Lin Xuan and the others immediately recognized the carriage in front of them, as well as the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe standing in front of it.
Seeing this, Ye Mengyao led Lin Xuan and the others forward.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
Lin Xuan, Xiao Wu, and the others also bowed in greeting.
Seeing Lin Xuan and the others come out, Xue Qinghe stepped forward and gently helped Ye Mengyao up from a distance.
"Team Leader Ye, there's no need for such formalities. We're all old acquaintances, so please don't stand on ceremony."
After he finished speaking, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Xue Qinghe's gaze fell on Lin Xuan, who was being held by Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong behind Ye Mengyao. He smiled and spoke, his tone full of praise.
"Congratulations on a perfect 14-game winning streak! You've secured the top spot in both the Qualifying Tournament and Promotion Tournament with overwhelming strength!"
"This can be said to be the only undefeated champion in the entire Douluo Continent so far in the Soul Master Tournament! It truly amazes me!"
Lin Xuan smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Brother Qinghe, this is all thanks to everyone's concerted efforts. Today, the number of students from the Skywater Academy is so small that we, Blue Tyrant Academy, have gotten lucky."
Xue Qinghe waved his hand and spoke with a smile.
"Luck is also a part of strength. Besides, with the strength of your Blue Tyrant Academy, even if Skywater Academy refuses to admit defeat, they will still be defeated by you!"
At this point, Xue Qinghe took two steps toward Lin Xuan and continued,
"Brother Lin Xuan, the Final Tournament of this Soul Master Tournament are going to be exceptionally difficult. The strength of Spirit Hall Team and the Star Luo Royal Academy is unfathomable!"
Lin Xuan listened to Xue Qinghe's words and naturally understood that there was something more to Xue Qinghe. He was not in a hurry and waited for Xue Qinghe to reveal his purpose.
As expected, the Xue Qinghe path followed immediately.
"Brother Lin Xuan, if your Blue Tyrant Academy can win the championship of this year's Soul Master Tournament for the Heaven Dou Empire, when you return to Heaven Dou City, not only will the royal family bestow rewards upon you, but I will also grant you a personal request, or rather, a promise!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Mengyao, Tai Long, and the others all gasped in shock.
The fact that a crown prince of a country could make such a promise speaks volumes about its significance!
This promise was made by the crown prince of a nation to Xue Qinghe, who had the potential to ascend the throne!
This promise is practically an imperial edict!
Lin Xuan was shocked; he hadn't expected Qian Renxue to offer such conditions.
Admittedly, Qian Renxue certainly had the intention of winning him over, but more likely, she wanted to annoy Qian Renxue Bibi Dong.
If she could lead Blue Tyrant Academy to defeat the Spirit Hall Team and defeat Bibi Dong's proud Spirit Hall Golden Generation, Qian Renxue would probably jump for joy.
Among the Spirit Hall Golden Generation, Hu Liena received a lot of care from Bibi Dong, and for that reason alone, Qian Renxue couldn't possibly not mind!
A promise? Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!
These two words instantly popped into Lin Xuan's mind. Lin Xuan had already considered the Soul Master Tournament championship to be his for the taking, and now with Qian Renxue's promise, he was determined to win it!
Immediately, Lin Xuan took a deep breath, his face showing just the right amount of surprise.
"Brother Qinghe, is this really true? Is it possible to ask for anything?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe lowered his head and pondered for a moment. He naturally couldn't possibly grant some unreasonable request.
After a brief moment of thought, he spoke.
"As long as your request is reasonable, I will definitely fulfill it for you, and I will never go back on my word!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Haha, I was just joking with Brother Qinghe! With our relationship, making promises would be too formal."
"As the top team in both the Qualifying Tournament and the Promotion Tournament, our Blue Tyrant Academy naturally aims for the championship!"
"Furthermore, I believe that any team with even a little strength would have the ambition to win the championship! So, even without any extra benefits, our Blue Tyrant Team will fight with all our might to take the title!"
After hearing Lin Xuan's words, Xue Qinghe burst into laughter. He clapped his hands as he spoke.
"Good! With Brother Lin Xuan's words, I am relieved! Brother Lin Xuan, rest assured, my promise will definitely stand!"
He glanced at Lin Xuan, then turned and boarded the carriage behind him.
Before getting into the car, Xue Qinghe turned around and said something to Ye Mengyao and Lin Xuan.
"If you're still here in three days, your Blue Tyrant Academy's vehicles will follow behind mine!"
After saying that, he waved and walked into the carriage.
Xue Qinghe was increasingly satisfied with Lin Xuan. As long as such a person was under his command, he would definitely be a right-hand man in the future!
However, Qian Renxue also felt a trace of worry.
If her true identity is revealed in the future, will her relationship with Lin Xuan still be the same as it is now?
Will they become enemies in the future?
Qian Renxue shook her head inwardly. It was too early for this matter; there was no need to rush!
As Xue Qinghe left, the royal knights followed Xue Qinghe carriage and departed.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong suddenly moved closer to Lin Xuan and asked,
"Lin Xuan, isn't His Highness being too kind to you? He even made a special promise to you! And he even ordered our Blue Tyrant Academy to follow behind the Crown Prince's carriage!"
"Originally, the team following His Highness the Crown Prince's carriage should have been the Heaven Dou Empire's seed team, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Imperial Fighting Team! But now it has changed!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu spoke up.
"That's natural, our strength is far superior to that of Yu Tianheng and the others from the Imperial Fighting Team!"
Zhu Zhuqing and Tang San both nodded in agreement; those with great strength naturally have special privileges.
Given Lin Xuan's talent and strength, and the fact that he has no sect or family backing him, it's quite normal for Xue Qinghe to spare no effort in trying to win him over.
Lin Xuan gently pinched Ning Rongrong's cheek and said with a smile,
"What's so surprising?"
"The Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academy has been held for so many years now. How many years has it been since the Heaven Dou Empire won the championship?"
Tang San nodded upon hearing this.
"That's true. The Heaven Dou Empire seems to have only won the championship once! Back then, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy gathered all sorts of geniuses and barely managed to win."
"As for the other championships, after the Star Luo Empire won them twice, the Spirit Hall Team monopolized the title!"
Lin Xuan nodded in agreement.
"The Little San is right! If we can help the Heaven Dou Empire win the championship after several years, it will be a demonstration of the Heaven Dou Empire's national strength!"
"That's why His Highness the Crown Prince has gone to such lengths to promise a reward!"
Of course, Lin Xuan wouldn't tell them that the real reason was largely because of Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong.
Such matters must naturally be kept secret!
