Sealed Divine Throne II: Twin Sons of Dragon
Chapter 102 - 102 51 Special Awards for Grade Champion_1

Chapter 102: Chapter 51: Special Awards for Grade Champion_1 Chapter 102: Chapter 51: Special Awards for Grade Champion_1 When Long Dangdang arrived at the Spirit Furnace Academy’s administration office, he found that he was the last one to arrive, as there were already twenty-three other people standing inside. Also, he once again saw his beautiful, veiled cousin.

When Ling Menglu’s soft gaze fell on him, a hint of reproach suddenly appeared in her eyes.

“We were waiting for you.” School Director Yu Yunqiong stood in front, upon seeing Long Dangdang’s arrival, he waved his hand, and the door to the room closed under the force of an invisible flow of air.

Long Dangdang naturally stood next to Ling Menglu and gave her a nod with a smile.

Menglu’s gaze returned to its usual gentleness and she shared a smile back with him.

“First of all, congratulations on obtaining the top rank in your respective grades. As champions of all grades, you are the best representatives of your age groups. Therefore, the academy provides you a special reward.”

“As you know, the Spirit Furnace Academy will conduct the providential selection ritual in two weeks. Today, we will give you tokens to enter the ritual early. This token will be different from other students. Therefore, you need to keep your token safe before the ceremony. The ritual doesn’t recognize people, but tokens. If you lose it, you will miss this opportunity.”

A senior champion could not help but ask: “Teacher Yu, why don’t you give it to us just before the ceremony begins to eliminate the risk of losing it?”

The expression on Yu Yunqiong’s face turned serious as he said sternly: “The academy has its intentions. You just need to remember to carry the token with you at all times.” As he was speaking, he extended his right hand. The palm of his hand was filled with a golden light, and circular golden tokens flew out, respectively flying towards each student present.

Long Dangdang reached out to catch his token, and Menglu beside him also caught one. The token felt warm in the hand, not cold as metal. When he held it, there was even a strange feeling of being connected by blood, as if the token had become a part of his body in an instant.

Long Dangdang turned his head subconsciously to look at Menglu. He clearly remembered that his cousin had once told him that there was a significant benefit in winning the top prize in their grade, which he thought might be this token.

Menglu gently nodded at him.

“Alright, you can go back now.” Yu Yunqiong waved his hand once more, and the door opened again.

As he left the administration office, Long Dangdang walked alongside Menglu towards the direction of the first-grade teaching building. When they had put a distance between themselves and the other champion students, he quietly asked, “Cousin, what is the purpose of this token?”

Ling Menglu stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him, “Cousin, you’ve hidden it quite deep! Were you alright that day? Was it you who acted again in the end?”

Long Dangdang looked bewildered and said, “Cousin, what are you talking about? That day, I passed out after making that sacrifice and woke up outside.”

Ling Menglu looked at him deeply and stomped her foot in a rare display of coquetry before turning around to walk away.

Long Dangdang hurried to catch up, “Cousin, you haven’t told me yet, what’s so special about this token?”

Ling Menglu stopped walking again, put her index finger on her lips, and then shook her head slightly, indicating that she could not tell.

“Cousin! Would you like to join my demon hunting team when we move up to the senior grades?” Ling Menglu diverted the topic.

“Demon hunting team? You mean the kind that combats the demon tribe, as said in history class? But didn’t you say that there are no demons anymore?” Long Dangdang asked, puzzled.

“Yes, there are no demons, but that does not mean that there are no other threats. Our Spirit Furnace Academy’s demon hunting teams are very important. As you’ve seen, seniors participate in the assessment in groups of six, no longer based on their profession, but as a team, with each team having all six professions. That is the embryonic form of the demon hunting team. Of course, if you want to become a genuine demon hunting team, you have to pass an examination. Once approved, you will receive strong support from our academy, even the Federation. I think, my demon hunting team needs a knight with a spirit of sacrifice like you. You are the first person I have invited. Can you accept my proposal?” In the end, her eyes returned to their usual gentleness, along with a hint of pitiable plea.

If Long Dangdang hadn’t seen his cousin wielding that huge hammer against the demon tribe, he might have succumbed to her beautiful, pitiful gaze… but now…

“Well, thank you for the invitation, cousin. Could you let me think about it?” Long Dangdang responded stoically.

Ling Menglu was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Long Dangdang to refuse her outright. During the test, they may not have coordinated perfectly, but they each had recognized the other’s strength, even their hidden aces. Besides, they were also related by blood, and she thought he would definitely agree!

“Do you have any reservations?” asked Ling Menglu, replacing her charming demeanor with seriousness.

Long Dangdang replied frankly, “If we need to form a reserve demon hunting team for various purposes in the upper grades in the future, I won’t separate myself from my brother.”

“Long Kongkong?” Ling Menglu fell silent. Since she found out about Long Dangdang’s strength, she had also specifically investigated the situation of her other cousin and learned that Long Kongkong might be the student with the lowest cultivation level in the history of Spirit Furnace Academy, not even reaching the 4th Rank. Although his final performance in the test was not bad, it was mainly due to the participation of a 5th Rank knight. His score was just among the top one-third of students.
