Chapter 597: He who knows the current affairs is a hero
After seeing Kong surrender without hesitation, Funina on the stage was also a little stunned.
She originally thought she would have to release Lord Uther to beat up Sora again...
Now it seems that Kong simply chose to surrender, and there was no need for a fight to break out.
So what should she do next?
Scratching her head, Finina looked at Sasalis with confused eyes.
Seeing Funina's expression, Sasayuri instantly revealed a look of realization, then she waved her hand, mobilized the power of the formation and teleported Funina back to her preparation room.
Of course, this can only be done with Furninna's consent.
Otherwise, given the gap between him and Funina, even if he detonated the entire formation and sent all the creatures from Inazuma and other countries in the audience seats of the arena to the sky, he would not be able to teleport them away.
After all, the gap in strength between them is too big.
"call……"
Seeing Funina disappear on the spot, Sasalis breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the non-existent sweat from her forehead, and was speechless.
"This young lady is truly... unique."
Shaking his head, he announced to everyone.
"The winner of this competition is the second princess from Holy Lemuria - Her Highness Finina!"
After hearing the words "Holy Lemuria" and "Second Princess", some of the audience who originally had opinions suddenly shut up.
Holy Lemuria... undoubtedly the strongest country on the continent of Teyvat, possessing the most powerful gods in the world.
Olias, known as the Great Supreme who rules over all the seas, rules over this country.
He is both God and King.
Therefore, the Princess of Holy Lemuria is naturally also His offspring...
Descendants of God...
Even the elderly who live in a remote corner and don't like to use the Internet know what the word "descendants of God" means.
What’s more, this “descendant of God” is the son of the Great Supreme?
Those audience members who had opinions, or even some slightly radical ones, suddenly looked at each other with embarrassment on their faces.
Now they are in a dilemma whether to say it or not.
After much deliberation, they hesitated for half a second between "face" and "life", and finally decided that "life" was more important.
So, all of a sudden, those who had opposing opinions could not stop bursting into praise.
The main theme is "follow your heart".
The audience, especially those who had just expressed dissatisfaction and doubt about Kong's surrender, were now filled with gratitude. They were secretly grateful that they did not say more outrageous words because of a momentary impulse, and that they woke up in time at this critical moment and chose to keep their mouths shut.
A middle-aged man thought to himself, "Fortunately, I didn't pour out all my complaints. If I really offended the descendants of gods, I would be in big trouble. The identity of the descendants of gods is as far away as the stars in the sky. How can we mortals discuss it casually?"
His hands trembled unconsciously and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Thinking back to the complaints he had almost blurted out just now, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
A young man beside him was all smiles, and he said loudly, "Your Highness Finina is indeed a genius. She won the victory so easily. She is truly worthy of everyone's expectations! Your Highness's demeanor is like the bright sunshine, which mortals like us can only look up to. This martial arts tournament is even more glorious because of Your Highness's participation. I believe that Your Highness's kindness has made Kong feel ashamed and he dared not fight with Your Highness. It is wise for him to surrender voluntarily."
As he spoke, he waved his arms exaggeratedly, trying to make up for his previous mistakes with his enthusiasm.
In fact, the opinion he just expressed is the most...
"Yes, yes! Her Highness Fininna's reputation will surely spread throughout the entire continent of Teyvat. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to witness her dignity and bravery today. It is truly a great honor." A woman also hurriedly echoed, her face full of flattering smiles, but her eyes revealed a hint of panic.
Before, she had heard that some people who had criticized Funina mysteriously disappeared. At the time, she thought it was just a rumor. Now think about it...
It’s simply terrifying to think about it.
When she thought of these contents, the vocabulary she spoke instantly exceeded the limit of her reading.
Everyone nodded, and all kinds of compliments were heard.
"Her Highness Finina's elegance and nobility are like a holy lotus, blooming with unparalleled brilliance in this arena."
"Your Highness's strength is unfathomable. I think he must be well aware of his own insignificance, so he surrendered early to avoid a disastrous defeat."
They used the most flowery words to praise Fernina, hoping to make up for their previous rashness. At the same time, they prayed silently in their hearts that Fernina would not vent her anger on them because of their previous attitude.
The entire arena was immersed in an atmosphere of flattery, as if the previous doubts and dissatisfaction had never happened, and Finina became the supreme existence in their hearts, was placed on the altar, and accepted the hypocritical but extremely enthusiastic worship of everyone.
"..." Sasayuri & Kitsunesai-miya & Chiyo.
The two monsters and one ghost were speechless.
In the highest audience seats, Lei Dianzhen and Lei Dianying looked very uneasy as they watched all this.
"Sister..." Lei Dianying seemed to be very speechless about the other party's sudden change. He asked in disbelief:
"Are these people...really most of them the people of Inazuma?"
"...It should be, right?" Lei Dianzhen said uncertainly.
The reason why she was unsure was because these people changed so quickly, so quickly that she felt a little unfamiliar...
The contestants were in the preparation room. Seeing all this, Ying immediately put her hand on her forehead, feeling so angry that she didn't know how to vent.
After a long time, she sighed softly.
"Forget it... I'll just admit defeat later. Everyone thinks that admitting defeat directly is the most appropriate choice when facing Funina."
For some reason, she felt that this competition had changed a little bit...
After the boring half-hour preparation time, Ying slowly walked onto the arena.
"Ying, good afternoon~" Funina greeted Ying with a smile, "Have you thought about what to eat for lunch today?"
"……"Ying's expression was so intense that she almost couldn't help but complain when she heard Funina's question.
But I thought that my complaints might turn into provocations if spread by the audience...
In order to prevent herself from being shot in the back seven times and committing suicide one day while walking in Holy Lemuria, she smiled sweetly and said:
"It's up to you to decide."
"Okay, let's have dessert today." Upon hearing this, Funina suggested directly.
"Dessert..." Hearing these two words, the smile on Ying's face became very forced.
To be honest, she was about to vomit from eating desserts all this time.
But seeing the expression on Furninna's face, she couldn't say anything to refute...
If she was misunderstood by others, she would be shot seven times in the back and have it classified as suicide.
"Anyway..."
"Let's talk about these things off stage."
Ying sighed softly and said to Funina, then looked at Sasayuri.
"Needless to say, I admit defeat in this competition."
