Qian Er had anticipated that his conferral ceremony might be relatively grand.
However, many things still exceeded his imagination.
Early the next morning, the steward meticulously prepared Qian Er's attire. Qian Er looked at his radiant self in the mirror and gave a thumbs up to the person in the mirror and the cat-girl behind him.
The cat-girl, having followed Qian Er for so long, was naturally present on this occasion.
After changing his clothes, he walked out the door. City Lord Zhang had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Qian Er come out, he hurried to greet him. Behind him were many core figures of Stele City.
Qian Er smiled, stepped onto a stool, and sat on the dragon chariot. That's right, it was a dragon chariot. The madman Frost Radiance Bone Dragon insisted on pulling the chariot after hearing the news of the conferral ceremony. Qian Er couldn't persuade him otherwise, so he could only agree.
Almost the entire Stele City was packed. The roads were crowded with people. In addition to the human race and those races who were forced to come, there were countless races who had come admiringly, wanting to see the elegance of the Town-Suppressing King. These races were all friendly with humans.
Seeing the dragon chariot approaching, the crowd parted like the Red Sea.
Even the slow-witted ones would be quickly pulled aside by others after a few seconds of愣.
"Are you crazy? This is the Town-Suppressing King!"
There were so many people on the scene that even the guards were having trouble managing them. Yesterday, the various races entered the city in batches, mostly like dejected rats, and didn't come out much after reaching their residences, so although there were many people, it wasn't particularly exaggerated.
But today, when everyone rushed out at once, they realized that there were really a lot of people!
Looking out over the street, the heads of all sizes were endless. Only some races with natural height advantages stood out from the crowd.
Qian Er looked at the various races below with some envy. It wasn't even the opening yet, and there would probably be even more later. This really made him greedy, but there was nothing he could do. He could only look, not eat.
Using his willpower to forcibly turn his head away from looking at those alien races, Qian Er got out of the car and walked towards the sacrificial altar that had been set up a few days ago.
As he got closer and closer to the central square, City Lord Zhang smiled mysteriously at Qian Er.
"Your Majesty, there will be a surprise later..."
Qian Er was confused, but he didn't ask any further. From a distance, he heard music coming from the central square.
When he arrived at the central square, the first thing that caught his eye was not the honor guard, nor the human True Kings who had already arrived, but a ten-meter-tall statue!
City Lord Zhang was clearly very satisfied with his masterpiece and explained with a smile: "I've been working on this since I first heard the news of the ceremony. It was really hard to hide such a thing from you."
Then, he waved his hand, and several people behind him skillfully pinched the red cloth on the statue and neatly unfurled it in the air.
Accompanied by a burst of exclamation, another "Qian Er" appeared before everyone!
A burst of exclamation erupted from among the myriad races, because the material of this statue was actually made of materials from the myriad races. Qian Er carefully examined it for a while and found that they were all familiar materials, all races he had killed. City Lord Zhang had even taken the trouble to research which races he had killed and used the corpses of these races to piece together his statue.
Just then, not far away, a sky-shattering salute sounded.
"Bang!"
Qian Er quickly walked along the red carpet to the platform that had been set up. On the platform, many professors from the Imperial Academy alone had come. At this moment, they all cast approving glances at Qian Er. Qian Er's two teachers were also among them, but Professor Shi Zhong had not yet emerged from seclusion.
The atmosphere at the scene reached its first climax after Qian Er took the stage.
Salutes roared, gongs and drums sounded, and ribbons fluttered. Someone took the lead and shouted: "Long live the Town-Suppressing King!"
"Long live the Town-Suppressing King!"
"Long live the Town-Suppressing King!"
In the noisy crowd, there were also many people looking around, sizing up everything around them.
After all, conferral ceremonies were rare opportunities, and only True King-level Beastmasters could receive this honor, and only once in a lifetime.
"Brother Wang, look, the feathered serpent over there!"
"History textbooks say that this kind of feathered serpent has been living in caves for at least several hundred years. How did they all come!"
"Cave dwelling is nothing special. What's so surprising about it."
Brother Wang snorted, but his eyes involuntarily glanced over.
At the same time, he muttered to himself.
From the time he arrived in Stele City until now, he had almost seen all kinds of species that he had only seen illustrations of in textbooks!
Although he had heard of conferral ceremonies before, they were all overshadowed compared to this one.
This should be the most sensational conferral ceremony in history, right?
Thinking, he couldn't help but tiptoe and look at the legendary Beastmaster who was talking and laughing on the stage.
"This Town-Suppressing King is really young and promising..."
"That's right, a Begonia Beast?!"
Another cry rang out in the crowd.
"Hasn't the Begonia Beast already broken off contact with the human race?"
"Even they came?"
"Could I be mistaken..."
Everyone looked in that direction in disbelief.
The Begonia Beast, resembling a bear and a rat, walked upright, about two meters tall, with a row of flower-like feathers on its back.
You must know that this race was extremely hostile to the human race in the beginning. Their participation in the Town-Suppressing King's conferral ceremony wouldn't mean...
That Begonia Beast was a True King of the race. His tall figure allowed him to take in all the strange gazes of the people around him. He drooped his face and sighed deeply in his heart.
According to rumors, that Town-Suppressing King's current strength was enough to wipe out his race with a smile. Moreover, according to Brother Rat, this Lord was especially petty.
Could he not come!
Wasn't the Void Sky Crane clan strong enough?
Didn't they still get beaten to the point of having no temper at all?
Who wasn't afraid that that young man would have a whim one day and settle the score after the autumn harvest?
Humans are really a terrible race!
Soon, everyone discovered that, in addition to the Begonia Beast, there were also many races that had always been at odds with the human race who had also appeared on the scene.
The common characteristic of these races was that their movements were very stiff and their expressions were as if their parents had died!
On the stage, Qian Er had some simple exchanges with the crowd. The people on the stage were basically familiar faces like Yu Feiyi, so the scene was very harmonious and there was not much polite conversation.
Then, the attendant draped Qian Er with the冕服, symbolizing the honor that countless people dreamed of.
"The conferral ceremony officially begins!"
The process of the conferral ceremony proceeded in an orderly manner, and the cheers from the audience were higher than the last. Even Yu Feiyi secretly kicked Qian Er several times.
"You kid, tell me honestly, did you ask someone to help you?"
Qian Er shook his head, his face full of "I don't know anything."
"So popular, it seems that your status in everyone's heart is not low."
Yu Feiyi laughed and began to put pressure on Qian Er, who was a little helpless, but then he smiled.
Unlike the regular conferral ceremony, Qian Er's coronation ceremony was also held today, so the process was slightly longer.
However, in addition to these, there was also a small episode.
That was that some beasts, represented by the Begonia Beast, who had always had bad relations with the human race, all showed goodwill to Qian Er, expressing their willingness to repair relations with the human race.
Of course, these things were all done behind the scenes.
Whether it was a psychological effect or not, the Begonia Beast looked at Qian Er, although he was much shorter than himself, he exuded a somewhat terrifying aura all over his body.
"Town-Suppressing King, there were too many people outside just now. This is the sincerity that my clan is willing to offer..."
