Chapter 865: 732, Ice Emperor: This competition is rigged_1
Lin Yi thought, "Tenth place, Ning Rongrong, ninth place, Xue Ke, eighth place, Huo Wu, seventh place, Shui Bing'er, sixth place, Zi Ji, fifth place, Zhu Zhuyun, fourth place, Ju Zi, third place, Bi Ji, second place, Bi Bidong, first place: Snow Emperor."
Actually, among them, two people were quite regrettable: Snow Emperor and Bi Bidong. It was because of an unexpected interlude that Lin Yi had to reduce Bi Bidong's score appropriately. If Bi Bidong had not been possessed by the attribute of the God of Desire, she would have been fully capable of winning first prize.
The second regrettable person was the Snow Emperor, whose conditions in every aspect were almost the same as Gu Yuena's—it was possible for her to get a perfect score too if it weren't for the issue with temperature, which greatly affected both the touch and taste. There was no other way but to deduct points, and Lin Yi placed her in the first position of the second prize.
Lin Yi looked down, "Those whose names have been called can come up to receive your awards. Stand according to the order of the names announced. Bi Bidong had something come up and cannot attend, so Qian Renxue will accept the award on her behalf."
With a twist of her mouth, Qian Renxue followed behind everyone with extreme reluctance.
Up to now, her name had not been called, and there were only five people for the first prize, so the odds of her winning were not high. This panicked Qian Renxue. She noticed Gu Yuena's name hadn't been called either, but seeing Gu Yuena's confident demeanor, Qian Renxue knew she would definitely win first prize, maybe even the top spot.
"Damn, I even have to accept the award for that bitch."
Qian Renxue muttered expletives as she stood beside the Snow Emperor.
Lin Yi presented the three soul bones, a random 5,000 attribute points, and one golden Junior award to the prize winners. When it was Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu's turn to receive the hefty soul bones, their faces showed nothing but shock, and the random 5,000 attribute points surprised them further. The golden junior award left them more baffled than receiving the soul bones, disbelieving.
Fortunately, these random golden junior awards weren't too extravagant, or the men below would have died of envy. Why did these women get an award without dealing 500,000 damage? Because of their chests?
At that moment, Little Snow Maiden looked at the Ice Emperor with confusion, "Auntie, mom won an award, why haven't they called your name yet? Didn't you win one?"
Confidently folding her arms across her chest, the Ice Emperor responded, "Only the first prize is left. It's bound to be a first prize that I'll get."
Little Snow Maiden nearly laughed out loud. She glanced at the Ice Emperor's chest and suddenly felt that if the Ice Emperor could win an award, she could too.
After Lin Yi finished handing out the second prize awards, the people on stage left in order.
He then said, "Next I will announce those who have won the first prize, still reading the names in order from the lowest to the highest score."
"Fifth place, Wang Qiu'er."
When Wang Qiu'er's name was called, Zi Ji looked enviously at the girl beside her and suddenly reached out to pinch her, startling Wang Qiu'er who quickly turned her head and asked, "What are you doing?"
With an envious expression, Zi Ji pinched hard and said, "I want to see just how high the quality of a first prize winner is. No, I want to check it out tonight, okay?"
Wang Qiu'er blushed and nodded, "Okay…"
The feeling of being grabbed by Zi Ji made her flash back to the spectacle during Lin Yi's testing—back then, it was far more embarrassing than now.
Di Tian glanced aside, very curious, he asked Zi Ji and Bi Ji, "What did you two, the second prize winners, lack compared to the Auspicious Beast?"
Bi Ji shook her head, "Goose Goose doesn't know; all Goose remembers is that the Golden Dragon Lord kneaded for a long time before scoring, saying Goose was amazing and scored high, but didn't win first prize—Golden Dragon Lord tricked me."
Di Tian immediately widened his eyes in shock, "What?! He kneaded for a long time?!"
He crumbled to the ground, hands in the air, with blood gushing from his mouth and then collapsed unconscious.
Bi Ji turned to Zi Ji, puzzled, "What happened to the boss?"
Zi Ji curled her lips, "That's probably the ultimate expression of jealousy."
After saying that, she kicked Di Tian's leg, "Boss, wake up."
Di Tian didn't respond, so Zi Ji changed her tactic, "Boss, Bi Ji's clothes suddenly became transparent."
"What?!"
Di Tian quickly got up, wiping the blood from his mouth, eyeing Bi Ji like a starved wolf that had scented meat, then gave Zi Ji a glare, "What's wrong with you? Why trick me?"
Zi Ji pursed her lips and huffed, looking away.
Gu Yuena gave her a cold look, "How embarrassing."
Di Tian scratched his head, "Is the scoring process for the Lord the same as for Bi Ji?"
Gu Yuena immediately glared at him, "Shut up!"
After she spoke, her face turned slightly red as she turned away.
When Wang Qiu'er came onto the stage, she noticed that many of the males in the audience couldn't help but let their gaze drift down to her chest, causing Wang Qiu'er to awkwardly cross her arms in front of her and think to herself that indeed, being a top prize winner was different. When it had been the second and third prizes, everyone's focus had still been on the rewards, but now, for the top prize, it went straight to the breasts.
A top prize meant being in the top five out of 160,000 competitors, which very likely made her one of the top five on the entire continent.
Seeing Wang Qiu'er step up, Lin Yi continued, "Fourth place, Zhu Zhuqing."
Fourth place was surprising, and Zhu Zhuqing was surprised herself, clearly not expecting to win a top award! When she hadn't seen her name for the second and third prizes, she thought she hadn't won anything at all!
Ning Rongrong was very excited, and immediately pushed Zhu Zhuqing onto the stage, standing next to Wang Qiu'er.
Actually, Zhu Zhuqing could have ranked higher, but because her size was a bit large, some points were appropriately deducted.
Lin Yi glanced at the excited Zhu Zhuqing and began reading the next name on the list.
"Third place, Poseissi."
Thousand Waves and Tang Chen immediately shouted in grief and excitement, "Way to go, Xi Xi!!!"
"Sure enough, it's Xi Xi!"
As Poseissi blushed her way to the stage amid their cheers,
Although Thousand Waves and Tang Chen were verbally celebrating, they were bleeding on the inside. They knew the significance of third place, only regretting that they would miss the view!
Lin Yi actually hadn't seen the full view of the area for Puppet Poseidon, and he hadn't expected that the first time he'd see it in full would be on a real person, he was astounded at first sight!
He continued, "Second place, Qian Renxue."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue's mouth dropped open in shock. She had already given up hope, and now she was completely flabbergasted.
A top prize, second place?!
Thousand Waves looked at his granddaughter in shock, "What's going on? You actually beat Xi Xi? How could you disrespect your elder like this, granddaughter?"
Qian Renxue glared back at him, "Grandpa, have you lost your mind?"
After saying this, she excitedly walked towards the stage, her excitement unabated even as she stood in front of Lin Yi.
The Ice Emperor looked at the Little Snow Maiden in surprise, "Could it be that I am the first place?"
Lin Yi, "First place, Gu Yuena."
When the list was completed, Gu Yuena, as if she had known the result all along, showed no sign of surprise. She walked onto the stage calmly like a queen, under the despairing gaze of the Ice Emperor.
The Little Snow Maiden looked up, "Auntie, you didn't win."
The Ice Emperor's expression turned serious, "There's a fix."
