Chapter 653 Blue Capital Martial Arts Champion - Mu Xiyan

"You're right!"

Chen Lie nodded and said no more.

After arriving at the restaurant with Zhu Jingxi, the staff immediately served the food without Chen Lie having to ask.

At this time, the other contestants from the five stars of the Eastern Region were also having dinner in the restaurant.

Upon seeing Chen Lie, these people all stepped forward to greet him, and Chen Lie nodded in response.

Zhu Jingxi sat gracefully in front of Chen Lie and began to eat her food in small, elegant bites.

At this moment, a staff member of the Blue Star Martial Arts Association said, "Distinguished guests, Chairman Wang asked me to inform you that after the meal, please proceed to the conference hall on the first floor of the Martial Arts Association."

"knew!"

The people from the five stars of the Eastern Star Region who participated in the battle for the Four Star Regions responded in unison.

Chen Lie finished his meal in no time.

He bid farewell to Zhu Jingxi and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Zhu Jingxi suddenly said meaningfully, "Brother Chen, the laws of Blue Star that govern ordinary people shouldn't apply to someone as outstanding as you, right?"

"There's no question of whether it applies or not. All citizens of Blue Star should abide by the law; that's a matter of awareness," Chen Lie said.

Zhu Jingxi said "Oh": "If that's the case, my little sister Jing Shu will probably be heartbroken."

Chen Lie didn't say much, but got up and went to the meeting hall of the Blue Star Martial Arts Association.

When he arrived, almost all the people from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region had already arrived.

"Brother Chen!"

Upon seeing Chen Lie arrive, Zhu Jingxuan, the Crown Prince of Chiyan Star, He Zhen of Jintian Star, and You Mingyue of Shuimang Star all stepped forward and bowed in salute.

Chen Lie returned the greetings one by one.

Upon entering the conference hall, Chen Lie discovered that Ning Guofeng, the governor of Blue Star, and a group of Blue Star's top executives were all present.

In addition, there were several alien visitors, two of whom Chen Lie knew: Zhu Zhengchang, the Prince of Yong'an of the Great Yan Dynasty on Chiyan Star, and Zhou Chengchuan, the Dean of the Martial Arts Department on Shuimang Star.

When the governor saw Chen Lie arrive, he actually stood up to greet him.

"Chen Lie, you're here?"

"Greetings, Consul!"

"No need for formalities!"

The governor approached Chen Lie, patted his arm, and said, "I've heard everything from Chairman Wang and Principal Lei about this interstellar alliance war. It was you who turned the tide once again. Such a great achievement is probably too much for a single page of Blue Star's history to contain."

"The consul is too kind!"

"Well, let me introduce you. These are the envoys from the other four stars: King Yong'an of Crimson Flame Star, Chief Commander Dongzheng of the Federal Army of Wood Origin Star, and Dean Zhou Chengchuan of the Martial Academy of Water Vast Star."

The governor introduced all the guests from the five stars of the Eastern Region to Chen Lie.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chen Lie, our candidate for governor of Blue Star and the top freshman at Starry Sky University!"

Guests from the five stars of the Eastern Region greeted Chen Lie one after another. The minister of Jintian Star and the guest who was a ninth-level grandmaster said, "So this is Chen Lie. I have heard of your great name for a long time. I am finally honored to meet you today."

The guests from the five stars of the Eastern Region all knew that it was because of Chen Lie that Blue Star was able to become a permanent council member of the Eastern Region and seize command of the Interstellar Alliance.

The fact that a planet can give birth to a genius like Chen Lie is a direct manifestation of the nation's prosperity. He can single-handedly push a barren planet to the pinnacle of interstellar power.

Chen Lie cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said, "I dare not accept such praise."

The governor then said, "Shortly after receiving news of the victory in the battle for the four star regions, I extended an invitation to the guests from the other four stars to the Blue Star."

Seizing command of the Interstellar Alliance is a momentous occasion for all planets in the Eastern Star Region, and naturally, we should all celebrate this momentous occasion with a grand victory banquet.

"You are all students of Starry Sky University, and you usually have very little time to practice martial arts, so let's have the celebration banquet today."

The time is set for noon today, at the Blue Star Business Banquet Hall!

The governor called out the names of ten people from the Eastern Star Region, then said, "Everyone must be present, at least show their faces!"

Chen Lie and the others readily agreed.

After arranging everything, the governor said to Lei Jinglong, "Principal Lei, this celebration banquet will be jointly hosted by you and Chairman Wang Shou. Now that we have the seal of the Holy Envoy Hall, I have some urgent matters to attend to."

"Okay, leave it to us!" Lei Jinglong replied.

The governor bid farewell to the guests from the Eastern Star Region and then left the conference hall.

A short while later, a young man dressed in a suit came to Chen Lie's side.

"Governor Chen Lie, what should we do with the spy from the Dark Moon organization named Song Yixuan that you previously investigated?"

The consul has asked me to inquire about your opinion.

Chen Lie thought for a moment and said, "Let's observe her first. Detain the higher-ups at Dark Moon. If she performs well, let her go back to Starry Sky University, but require her to come back and report every three months. Have the on-campus work group conduct more reviews on the rest of the time."

"Okay, I understand what you mean!"

The young man responded and then left the conference hall.

At this moment, Lei Jinglong invited, "Everyone, let's move to the Star Affairs Banquet Hall!"

Under the arrangement of the staff, the people in the conference hall left the hall and boarded a large airship.

The airship took off and quickly arrived at the Blue Star Business Banquet Hall located in the center of Blue Capital.

Upon arrival, Chen Lie and his entourage entered the banquet hall directly through the VIP entrance.

The banquet hall was very large, covering an area of ​​more than 8 square meters. When Chen Lie entered through the VIP passage, he found that there were already many people outside the banquet hall, including many young people from Blue Star, as well as young men and women from other planets in the Eastern Region dressed in ancient clothes.

"Why are so many people here for this celebration banquet?"

Upon seeing the scene inside the banquet hall, Chen Lie asked.

"Yes, all the top martial arts practitioners among the younger generation of the five stars in the Eastern Region have come, as well as many freshmen from our Blue Star University!"

"After all, it's a celebration banquet for the entire star system, so naturally everyone from the five stars of the Eastern Region has to attend," Lei Jinglong replied.

Upon arriving at the backstage rest area of ​​the Star Affairs Banquet Hall, the banquet hall staff arranged for the star guests to take their seats.

Lei Jinglong said to the ten people from the Eastern Star Region who participated in the battle: "Classmates, the celebration banquet is just outside the banquet hall. Blue Star has arranged many reporters to cover the event. We'll need your cooperation later. Of course, we've warned them that those reporters won't bother you too much."

"Principal Lei, we have limited time and we're afraid we can't stay here for too long," Pei Naiqing said.

"Don't worry, you only need to show your faces. I'll try my best to get them to keep your appearances within an hour," Lei Jinglong said.

Upon hearing Lei Jinglong's answer, the others nodded in agreement.

Chen Lie didn't want to waste too much time. He had already spent half a month on Blue Star and would have to go home later. Hearing Lei Jinglong's words, he didn't raise any further objections.

Just then, Wang Shou, the president of the Blue Star Martial Arts Association, arrived.

After greeting the guests from various stars, he came to Chen Lie.

"Chen Lie, here is some news about you."

"What news?" Chen Lie asked.

"Before we returned to Blue Star, an envoy from the Ministry of Rites of the Holy Martial Dynasty of North Star arrived on Blue Star and solemnly presented a letter of apology, which is for you."

"For me? Who wrote the letter?" Chen Lie asked.

"It's Princess Chengning from Beimang Star. You should take a look for yourself."

Wang Shou handed over a dragon-patterned envelope. Chen Lie took the envelope, opened it, and glanced at it.

[To His Excellency Chen Lie: My words were rash and unknowingly offended you.]

I later realized that I had been careless and spoke inappropriately, which offended you, and I felt ashamed.

I am writing this letter to apologize and hope you will forgive my previous mistake.

From now on, I will be more careful in my words and deeds, and will never be so reckless again.

I beg for your forgiveness; I would be eternally grateful.

Princess Chengning, Qin Zhenkui.

Chen Lie glanced at the contents of the letter and then put the envelope aside.

At this moment, Zhu Jingxi, Pei Naiqing, and others gathered around to look at the letter, and were all extremely surprised when they saw its contents.

"Brother Chen, why would a princess of the Northern Star Holy Dynasty, the only daughter of the Holy Martial Emperor's Crown Prince, write you a letter of apology?" Zhu Jingxi couldn't help but ask.

This kind of existence must be a top genius in the Ten Star Alliance, right? Both in terms of background and talent, they are top-notch.

Logically speaking, such a person should be arrogant and look down on people from remote planets, so why would they write a letter of apology? Where did they put the dignity of a princess?

Chen Lie said calmly, "She's definitely up to no good. Ignore her!"

The five members of the Eastern Region were all amazed. This was the circle of geniuses; geniuses always appreciated each other.

At Starry Sky University, they went to great lengths, only to be looked down upon and despised by the people of the Ten Star Alliance, who were unwilling to associate with them. Now, the top nobles and geniuses of the Ten Star Alliance have taken the initiative to write a letter of apology. The difference in treatment is too great.

"Chen Lie, would you like to write back?" Wang Shou asked.

"No need!" Chen Lie waved his hand.

Qin Zhenkui must have seen the diagram of the true energy circulation route, and that's why she regretted it; otherwise, she wouldn't have written such an apology letter.

"Brother Chen, this is Princess Chengning of Beimang Star. Don't you want to make her your friend?" Zhu Jingxi asked.

"I won't waste my time on something, I'm too lazy to do it!" Chen Lie said.

Zhu Jingxi was puzzled. Princess Chengning had already extended an olive branch, so why would she waste her efforts?

Wang Shoudao said, "So—Chen Lie, you're just going to let it go with just one letter?"

"Just pretend you never received it!" Chen Lie said.

"Okay then!"

Young people have their own way of doing things, and that's why Chen Lie made this decision.

"Get ready, you just need to show your faces in the banquet hall later and answer a few questions from the reporters!"

Wang Shou gave a few instructions and then quickly left.

Inside the Star Affairs Banquet Hall, the celebration banquet for the victory in the battle for the four star regions has been set up.

Some students from Blue Star University looked up at the celebration banquet venue and began to whisper among themselves.

"I heard that Chen Lie turned the tide at a crucial moment and won the battle for the Four Star Regions."

"Huh? Why is Chen Lie so amazing? I think we should just let Dongchuan Province take over as the top province of Lanjing!"

"He also seems to have won first place in the freshman martial arts competition at Starry Sky University, a competition that attracts geniuses from all the planets in the entire star field."

Inside Blue Star University, a girl with brown hair sat in a quiet spot.

She is none other than Mu Xiyan, the new champion of the Blue Capital Martial Arts Tournament in the year 7366 of the Galactic Calendar, and the only female champion in the past five years.

Hearing the crowd's discussion, Mu Xiyan frowned slightly.

At this moment, a beautiful girl who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old came to Mu Xiyan's side.

"Captain Mu, I've found out. This time, the champion of the martial arts competition from Crimson Flame Star didn't come, but the champion of the intercontinental blood qi competition from Wood Origin Star did. I heard from the people there that his name is Zhang Ding. He has ten times the strength and is at the Great Perfection of the Blood Refining stage. He has already undergone nine blood temperings."

"Ten times the strength? Nine blood temperings?" Mu Xiyan, the leader of the Blue Capital Martial Arts Tournament, frowned deeply.

"The year isn't even halfway over, and someone on Wood Origin Star has already broken through ten times the strength limit?"

Blue Star and Wood Origin Star were enemies for ten years. Although they have now made peace, the people below are still competing with each other. Now, when she heard that the number one Qi and Blood Martial Artist of Wood Origin Star had surpassed her, Mu Xiyan felt pressured.

"Isn't that surprising? I heard that a student from Star University on Muyuan Star spent a lot of time teaching Zhang Ding about the various stages of Qi and Blood cultivation. That's enough to save someone from taking so many detours."

Mu Xiyan hummed in agreement.

"Captain, you're probably worried about being overshadowed by Jupiter, right?"

"What's wrong?" Mu Xiyan glanced at the pretty girl.

"Actually, I think you don't need to worry so much. The champion of Lan Jingwu may not necessarily be the number one Qi and Blood Martial Artist on Lanxing. Have you forgotten about Dongchuan Province in the last competition?"

Mu Xiyan said unhappily, "What? Do you think I would lose to someone from another province?"

"I was just saying maybe, and besides, you don't need to compare yourself to Jupiter, do you? Our Blue Star is now a permanent member of the Council and has won first place in the competition among the four sides. We've already distanced ourselves from the other planets. What's the point of comparing us?"

"What do you know? I'm competing in martial arts, nothing else!"

"It's a pity you don't have a student from Starry Sky University to guide you, if only—"

Just as the pretty girl was about to speak, the lights on the banquet hall stage suddenly came on.

"Hello, alien guests!"

Welcome to this victory celebration banquet. This banquet celebrates the victory of the Eastern Star Region in the battle for the four star regions, and its successful capture of command of the 19th Legion of the Interstellar Alliance.

This means that the interstellar status of the Eastern Star Region will be dramatically elevated in the future, potentially becoming the leading star region among the four, and even reaching the level of the Central Star Region.

"The victory in this battle was entirely due to the concerted efforts of the ten outstanding geniuses of the Eastern Region's Five Stars."

Next, let's welcome ten outstanding geniuses to the stage!

As soon as the stage lights flashed, Chen Lie, Zhu Jingxuan, Ning Fan, Meng Qingwan, and others walked onto the stage from one side.

Below, the girl next to Mu Xiyan saw the people on stage and immediately tensed up, slamming her hand on the table in front of her seat: "Look! Captain Mu, Chen Lie is the first one to come out!"

"Why are you so agitated? Do you even know him?"

Lan Jingwu leader Mu Xiyan glanced at Chen Lie.

The girl hesitated for a moment, then said, "I—of course I know him!"

Mu Xiyan looked up at the stage and saw the first person to come out.

Is that Chen Lie?

A person from Dongchuan Province who has suppressed two champions of Blue Star Martial Arts Tournament.

What makes this martial arts genius, a once-in-a-millennium talent in the Eastern Star Region, so extraordinary?
