Complete Martial Arts Attributes - Chapter 3234

Chapter 3170 Their vision is too narrow! King of Suppression! Can Wang Teng truly deserve this honor?

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

…

The eight royal families below, except for the Parax family, all chose to second the proposal.

They all felt that no amount of reward from Wang Teng was excessive.

Boragu’s offer was even a little too little.

But they didn’t increase it further.

Firstly, they were unsure of the king’s specific attitude and wanted to leave some room for maneuver.

Secondly, they naturally wanted to leave room for the king to increase it; what if the king also felt it wasn’t enough?

If they all spoke up, what would become of the king?

How would the other party demonstrate their favor to Wang Teng?

This was politics!

As subordinates, they had to consider the king’s interests at all times.

Only subordinates who always considered the king’s interests were good subordinates.

Waltergu was clearly unqualified; he had committed the greatest taboo, yet remained oblivious.

His face was a mixture of pale and flushed, his fists clenched as he stared at the crowd.

Did these seven royal families have no dignity at all?

To fawn over Wang Teng, they were willing to stoop to this level?

Ridiculous!

This is utterly ridiculous!

The Parax family would never associate with them.

So what if he’s a duke?

Let Wang Teng be one. The Parax family are kings; what’s a mere duke?

In terms of foundation, they are far superior to this upstart.

He’s a long way from threatening the Parax family.

Waltergu had already made up his mind that upon returning, he would have his family use their strongest forces to find an opportunity to eliminate Wang Teng.

At all costs!

This menace could not be allowed to live any longer.

“A duke, huh!”

The Great Qian Empire’s ruler repeated calmly, his tone seemingly thoughtful. After a moment, he said,

“Very well, if you’re going to bestow it, then do it thoroughly.”

“Confer upon Wang Teng the title of King!”

His voice remained calm, but to everyone present, it was like a thunderclap.

Everyone present was stunned, unable to react for a long time.

What the hell?

A King?

Really?

Had they heard correctly?

Everyone present stared in disbelief at the king at the head of the table.

They never expected their king to be like this!

Just moments ago he said there was nothing more to bestow, and now, in the blink of an eye, he’s granted a grand title—a royal title! Had their

vision been too limited?

Or were they simply too narrow-minded?

They thought the king would at most add some treasures to the reward.

The title was already at its peak; it couldn’t possibly go any higher.

But…

Boragu’s lips twitched, unsure whether to be happy or filled with envy and resentment.

A royal title!

That was a royal title!

A title equivalent to their eight great royal families!

From the founding of the Great Qian Empire until now, no one outside the royal family had ever been granted a royal title.

Only someone like King Chongshan, of royal blood, who had reached the Immortal level, and had made outstanding contributions to the Great Qian Empire,

could be granted a royal title.

But now, Wang Teng, someone outside the royal bloodline, was about to be granted a royal title.

How could this not inspire envy and resentment!

He had previously proposed bestowing the title of Duke upon Wang Teng because he felt that the title of King was too difficult to attain, almost impossible.

Unexpectedly, their ruler was so generous, directly granting Wang Teng the title of King.

This was truly eye-opening!

Only a ruler like this could pull this off! He knows how

to play the game! He’s

playing it big!

They can’t compare at all.

On the other side, Waltergu was struck dumb, completely disoriented.

He felt as if he had been tricked by the ruler.

Damn it!

What happened to the promise of no more titles?

What’s going on now? He’s

been given the highest title? And then there are no more titles?

So this is what “no more titles” means?

Waltergu was on the verge of tears, trembling with anger and cold.

He felt betrayed by everyone, including the ruler.

“What, do you think this is inappropriate?”

The ruler of the Great Qian Empire looked down at the expressions of the crowd, smiled faintly, and asked in return.

Everyone snapped out of their daze and hurriedly shouted, “No, we have no objections. We leave everything to the King’s decision!”

“The King is wise!!!”

The voices echoed throughout the hall, silencing any thought of further struggle from Waltergu.

He closed his eyes, knowing the tide had turned and he could do nothing.

What good was it if only the Pyracs family among the eight royal families objected?

It would only make them a laughingstock, a laughingstock for the other seven royal families.

So be it!

Destruction!

Waltergu no longer wanted to deal with this matter; he just wanted to return as soon as possible and see how to handle it.

Things were becoming increasingly complicated!

A King!

Once Wang Teng became a King, the threat to the Pyracs family would only be greater.

Moreover, what worried him even more was the King’s attitude.

What did He mean now?

The Great Qian Empire had always only had eight non-royal families; allowing Wang Teng, a non-royal, to become a King was already going too far.

The Great Qian Empire was only so big, with limited resources.

Supporting the eight royal families was already an extraordinary feat.

These royal families had to travel to other territories of the universe to seek opportunities and resources just to maintain the current situation.

If Wang Teng joined, it would inevitably disrupt the existing balance.

The resources of the eight royal families would certainly be reduced; this was foreseeable.

Therefore, the king’s actions were quite intriguing.

Was He perhaps planning to redistribute resources?

Waltergu, being the head of a family, quickly realized this when reason regained its footing.

The next moment, his heart skipped a beat, and a strong sense of foreboding surged within him.

He didn’t even dare to look up at the king, only pretending to be oblivious, bowing his head in fear.

“Since everyone has no objections, then let us bestow upon Wang Teng the title of King, and confer upon him the title of…”

The king of the Great Qian Empire spoke again, but paused slightly at the end, as if pondering.

Finally, he uttered a title:

“King Who Pacifies the Rebellion!”

As soon as the words fell, everyone’s expressions were filled with astonishment.

“This…”

Many people’s expressions changed slightly, seemingly feeling that it was inappropriate.

King of Pacifying the Rebellion!

This title… seems a bit too grand!

Wang Teng is, after all, only a Domain Lord-level martial artist. How can he be worthy of the title “King of Pacifying the Rebellion”?

In the entire universe, among so many powerful individuals fighting against the Dark Race, no one has ever dared to use this title.

At least, they have never heard of it.

This shows how extraordinary this title is.

In fact, the title of King is very particular.

For example, the Kings of the Great Qian Empire can generally only be held by Immortal-level beings.

Moreover, they must be King-level Immortals!

Because only King-level Immortals can be given the title of King.

In any case, the Great Qian Empire is also a force in the universe and must abide by the rules of the universe.

If they rashly put the title of King on a martial artist below the King-level Immortal,

it would only cause dissatisfaction among other forces and powerful individuals, and even become a laughing stock.

Therefore, before this, the Kings of the Great Qian Empire were all King-level Immortals.

The reason why the heads of the eight royal families cannot inherit the title of king is precisely because they only possess the right of inheritance.

Of course,

if they were to advance to the level of a King-level Immortal, they would naturally possess other King-level titles.

However, there are only eight

King-level titles in the Great Qian Empire. They can only enjoy the resources of the Great Qian Empire by inheriting the original King-level title.

Don’t underestimate these resources; they are enough to support a King-level Immortal, or even a Venerable-level Immortal.

This is why the eight royal families value the title of king so much!

To put it bluntly,

these ordinary Immortal-level beings from these families, if they cannot catch the eye of the giant forces like those in the Virtual Universe,

will ultimately have to rely on the resources of their original forces. Otherwise, they are basically no different from those powerless Immortal-level beings.

This also shows the difficulty of the growth of Immortal-level beings.

In addition, the origin of the titles is generally of extraordinary significance.

They are either related to the martial artist’s skills or their battle achievements.

Take King Chongshan, for example. His title came from his methods; he built his reputation and intimidated the surrounding area through his cunning.

Others naturally respected his title!

But now, the Emperor of the Great Qian Empire actually wanted to bestow upon Wang Teng the title of “King of Pacifying Rebellion.”

This title was clearly related to the Dark Race.

Pacifying rebellion! Pacifying rebellion! Pacifying the rebellion of the Dark Race!

Could Wang Teng, a mere Domain Lord-level martial artist, truly bear this title?

It was too heavy!

If other King-level Immortals knew… no, even Marquis-level Immortals knew about this, it would likely cause a great deal of trouble.

They didn’t know how to target or embarrass Wang Teng.

Everyone present fell silent, somewhat confused about what their Emperor was thinking.

Did he genuinely value and favor Wang Teng?

Or was he trying to… flatter him to death?!

A startling thought arose in everyone’s minds, leaving them uncertain and bewildered.

Some couldn’t help but secretly glance at the Emperor of the Great Qian Empire, seemingly trying to glean something from his eyes.

However, his gaze was too calm.

Nothing could be seen at all.

“You all think this title is bad?”

The Emperor of the Great Qian Empire seemed to sense everyone’s thoughts and asked calmly.

This time, no one responded.

Faced with the profound thoughts of a True God-level being, they dared not voice their own opinions.

What if they didn’t guess the Emperor’s thoughts? The consequences…

At this moment, everyone sensed that something was amiss and only wanted to observe the situation, no longer rashly taking sides as before.

Even Boragu of the Kalandish family felt the same way.

They did want to befriend Wang Teng, but after all, they were royalty of the Great Qian Empire. Within the Great Qian Empire, many things were beyond their control.

For a large family, even a small matter could have far-reaching consequences.

Moreover, this matter came from the Emperor’s mouth.

The Emperor’s words were law within the Great Qian Empire, and no one dared to disobey them.

How could they dare to treat it as a trivial matter?

Seeing the silence of the crowd, the Emperor of the Great Qian Empire smiled faintly and said to himself, “It seems you all have no objections. Then proceed accordingly.”

“Yes!”

The crowd below dared not disobey.

The figure of the Emperor of the Great Qian Empire slowly dissipated from the divine throne, and the omnipresent terrifying pressure gradually dissipated.

King Chongshan looked up and took a deep look at the divine throne, his eyes filled with a hint of doubt and surprise.

He, too, did not know what the Emperor was thinking.

Why bestow the title of “King Who Pacifies the Rebellion” upon Wang Teng?

This title was undoubtedly somewhat… wrong!

In fact, to some extent, even the Emperor of their Great Qian Empire was not qualified to bestow such a title.

How dare the other party do this?

Wasn’t he afraid of becoming the target of everyone’s criticism?

Other powerful beings in the universe might not recognize this title.

The members of the eight royal families also raised their heads, looking at the empty divine throne, their hearts slightly relieved, but then filled with deep doubt.

They exchanged glances, some already whispering amongst themselves.

“Boragu, what do you think of this matter?”

Even while communicating telepathically, the head of the Ji royal family asked in a very low voice.

“What do I think? I’ll just stand here and watch.” Boragu rolled his eyes, saying helplessly, “How could we possibly fathom the thoughts of our king?”

“But this matter…” The head of the Ji royal family frowned, hesitating, “It’s truly bizarre!”

“Sigh~” Boragu sighed deeply and said, “I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse?”

A trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

“In my opinion, the King may simply be genuinely optimistic about Wang Teng and is only promoting him!”

The head of the Rodriguez family hesitated for a moment before saying,

“In any case, this title might not be a bad thing for Wang Teng, as long as he can keep those powerful figures in check.”

“That makes sense!” The head of the Xiahou royal family stroked his chin and nodded thoughtfully, “Wang Teng is now at least a second-level Star Envoy of the Hall of Stars, a level that far surpasses the level of the King-level Immortals. He is fully capable of bearing the title of ‘King Who Pacifies the Rebellion’!”

“However, Wang Teng’s strength is still quite lacking. He might not be able to keep those King-level Immortals in check!” The head of the Jiang royal family shook his head, seemingly not optimistic about Wang Teng, and said, “If he is instead suppressed by those powerful figures, wouldn’t this title become a huge joke?”

“I wonder if he can withstand such a blow?”

Everyone fell silent, clearly aware of how serious the outcome was, and their hearts grew heavy.

That’s why they couldn’t see through the king’s thoughts, always feeling that there was a different meaning behind this title.

“Heh~”

Waltergu chuckled coldly, saying, “You’re celebrating too soon. Wang Teng might not be a good investment.”

“Since ancient times, the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind!”

“Wang Teng is indeed extraordinary, but precisely because he’s too extraordinary, he might not be able to go far.”

With that, he turned and left without lingering.

Everyone present changed their expressions slightly, watching Waltergu’s departing figure, their eyes flickering, their hearts uneasy.

What should have been a joyous occasion now left everyone somewhat uneasy, unsure of what to do.

The title of king was indeed not easy to hold.

Could Wang Teng bear this honor? (End of Chapter)
