Chapter 1111: It Really Is Them
The legendary team everyone had been thinking about day and night for so many days is right in front of their eyes?
It’s this so-called weakest team that everyone just now was looking down on?
For a moment, everyone only felt this was insanely ridiculous.
Lai Ping, Bian Xiu, Meng Shi, Zhong Man and the others held their heads high and puffed out their chests, accepting everyone’s gaze like a salute.
Even though the fighting had basically been entirely handled by Brother Cheng alone, had nothing to do with them, and they hadn’t even drawn their swords once the whole way through...
But as members of the First Handsome Team, even if they were just coasting and playing soy sauce, they were already "legendary characters."
In the future they were destined to be sung of by countless Immortals.
To become a legend of the frontline war zone.
What’s more, they did put in effort picking up loot and flattering people.
At least Captain Jiang himself was quite satisfied with these teammates.
Facing all those gazes that were either shocked, or disbelieving, or jealous, the few of them were so excited their hearts were surging, and their eyes turned red.
In the past, facing these Emperor Realm Eighth and Ninth Layers, they didn’t even have the qualification to be looked at.
Never mind Venerables and Celestial Venerable Venerables.
And all of this was brought to them by Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng had given them a dreamlike journey they would remember for all eternity.
The extra 10% settlement of Celestial Dao Points soon arrived in their accounts.
176,455 points, each of them got 35,291 points!
Just this leech‑on reward alone had already surpassed the total combined earnings of ninety‑nine percent of the teams present.
It had also exceeded the personal gain of the captain of the third‑ranked Li Rong Team!
As for Brother Cheng himself, he had raked in 1,799,841 Celestial Dao Points.
At this moment, he had already climbed to rank 282 on the Celestial Dao Chart, and that chart was the stage of Daoist Venerables.
He just didn’t know it yet.
"Captain!"
"Captain Jiang, we, we..."
The few of them looked at Brother Cheng with tearful eyes, their hearts filled with gratitude to the extreme.
Honestly speaking, where could you find a captain like this?
The whole time he never despised them for being weak, never scolded them, and never treated them as cannon fodder, always keeping them well protected.
This was the true breadth of a senior, the demeanor of a superior expert!
"Hahaha, what are you guys doing?"
Brother Cheng smiled and patted Lai Ping’s shoulder.
"As key members of the First Handsome Team, this is what you deserve."
Those four words "key members" made the few of them even more moved inside.
But they also made the corners of everyone else’s mouths twitch.
They really couldn’t imagine just how "key" these weaklings could possibly be.
Especially the members of Ba Yun Team; their feelings were a tangled mess at this moment.
Back at the registration hall, they had spared no effort mocking the First Handsome Team, saying those few "lucky dogs" were delusional.
Yet now, these people had gotten numbers out of thin air that they themselves had never reached.
Thinking back to when Jiang Cheng was recruiting, nobody cared, and many people looked down on him.
Their guts were turning green with regret.
If they’d known Jiang Cheng was this strong, they would have latched onto this team no matter what!
But... how could this guy possibly be that strong?
Even if he was a top genius of a King-level Daoist Field’s Upper Court, even if he was hiding his cultivation and had Celestial Venerable Level power, that would already be the ceiling!
Isn’t this completely unbelievable?
"I don’t believe it!"
Seeing Captain Jiang become the focus, Celestial Venerable Juangling couldn’t help but jump out.
"I absolutely don’t believe that record was achieved by you!"
Celestial Venerable Huo Wen chimed in as well: "There must be something wrong in all this!"
If they had been defeated by a team led by a Daoist Venerable or several Supremes, they would have accepted it.
Being trampled underfoot by such a "trash team," they simply couldn’t accept.
If this got out, the face of Emperor-level Dojos would be completely lost!
Especially since Jiang Cheng came from a King-level Daoist Field—King Jia’s Dojo would definitely promote this wildly in the future, and countless Immortals would put the two Daoist Fields side by side for comparison.
An Immortal from a King-level Daoist Field leading four weaklings, defeating the elites of five Emperor-level Dojos, including a Supreme?
Where were they supposed to put their pride?
Celestial Venerable Wu Jin moved his lips, wanting to stop his team members from stepping out to question this, because it looked lacking in class.
But in the end, he still didn’t say a word.
Because he also didn’t quite believe it.
Celestial Venerable Juangling waved his arms, his emotions extremely intense.
"Just with a team like yours, what right do you have to get that many points?"
"Do you all think that’s possible?"
"Just thinking about it, it’s impossible, right..."
The other Immortals all nodded; this was completely unreasonable.
They also couldn’t figure out how that record had been farmed.
Snort!
Brother Cheng couldn’t help laughing out loud.
"Yo, isn’t this that little bro who said he’d walk on his head? How come you haven’t flipped over yet?"
Just that opening line made Celestial Venerable Juangling’s face flush red.
Earlier, in a moment of rashness, he’d sworn an oath; who knew Brother Cheng would actually remember.
"You, what are you so proud of?"
He pointed at Brother Cheng, his face full of disdain and anger.
"There’s definitely been a mistake, the war zone’s scoring is wrong, so they randomly gave you extra points!"
"Right, I heard you didn’t take any Command Arrows; maybe the problem lies there..."
"Our Emperor Yuan Team only lost to a team that climbed up through a loophole!"
Once he said that, the others immediately chose to believe him.
Because in their eyes, this explanation made more sense.
Even the Supremes and Immortal Officials in the fortress didn’t refute it.
Because they also weren’t sure whether the truth was like this or not.
Their silence all the more "confirmed" everyone’s suspicions.
"So it was just because of a loophole..."
"I knew it, how could a team like that possibly have that kind of record."
"So in the end they’re still a trash team?"
Hearing them talk so righteously, Lai Ping, Bian Xiu, Zhong Man and the others couldn’t hold back.
Based on what?
"We personally witnessed every battle Captain Jiang fought!"
"The elder kills Venerables in seconds!"
"Celestial Venerables are nothing in his hands either!"
"Those are solid, bona fide records, where’s the loophole in that?"
Celestial Venerable Juangling sneered coldly: "Solid records?"
"I’m afraid only you few have seen them, right? Has anyone else seen them?"
"Isn’t it just whatever you say it is?"
The implication being: you’re lying.
"Second‑killing Venerables, you really dare to brag like that."
"With your lowly Realms, do you even know what a Venerable means?"
"Do you know how strong a Celestial Venerable’s Origin is?"
"They really did see it..."
At the fortress gate, another figure flew in.
As soon as they saw this person, the few Supremes of the Celestial Peak Army were so startled they jumped, hastily bowing and saluting.
"We respectfully welcome Daoist Venerable!"
"Greetings to Daoist Venerable Yu Jin!"
The Immortals in the hall nearly got scared stupid.
Daoist Venerable?
Heavens, a dignified Daoist Venerable had actually descended on the Yunzhao War Zone?
Not just the other teams—even Venerable Feng Chen of the Emperor Yuan Team quickly bent at the waist and lowered his head in salute to show respect.
Aside from Brother Cheng, everyone in the hall bowed together.
Many people didn’t even dare breathe too loudly in front of a Daoist Venerable.
But Daoist Venerable Yu Jin didn’t even spare them a glance.
His gaze first locked onto Jiang Cheng; this was now an important figure of the Celestial Palace!
