Strongest Abandoned Son

He could sense even the hollow spirit state middle stage power dark-faced Tong had, but that old man felt like an enormous ocean to him. Ye Mo was sure that the man was at least at hollow spirit state primary stage, or even beyond that.

At this moment, Ye Mo felt the old man look over at him. He had felt a benign will from the old man, but he still quickly took back his spirit sense. He couldn’t even resist against a master of his level.

Kong Ye stood at the stage. There seemed to be excitement in his eyes. He glanced at Ye Mo and then said, ”Everyone must be wondering why I must personally announce the number 1 master of the this tournament, but I believe everyone will understand why after hearing me out.”

His voice wasn’t loud, but everyone heard it clearly, as though he was speaking in front of them.

”Herb Pill Sect’s Ye Mo 10 points, total points 18, ranked first.” Kong Ye didn’t even say ’temporarily ranked’.

Rumble-

The discussion below could no longer be stopped. Ye Mo had been a dark horse until the end and gotten first place. How had he done it?

There had never been a single person with full marks.

Some people said in enlightenment, ”I finally understand why he ranked first! Although he has the same points as Ye Chengjun, he got ten points in one round. So, he’s first!”

”That should be right! Ten points… I don’t think Kong Ye-Qianbei would lie. It seems he really is a genius.”

Chen Yejun’s heart was bitter. He had thought that it didn’t matter if he got first or not, but when it really came to it, he felt it hard to accept this fact.

He had a subconscious thought. They both had 18 points – had first place been given to that new guy because he had been first three times in a row?

Ye Mo was also surprised. He had never expected he would get 10 points in the second round.

Kong Ye waited for people to quieten down before saying, ”If everyone thinks that Ye Mo got first place because he received ten points in the second round, then you’re all wrong.”

Hearing this, people started to listen closely again. Was it not due to Ye Mo getting full marks, which had never happened in the millenniums the tournament had been held?

Kong Ye continued, ”Yes, it’s due to another reason. Everyone knows that the spirit attraction grass can’t be added to a pill, so the spirit attraction herb was used in the first round to increase the judging speed. However, someone used it in a pill recipe and formed the spirit weaving pill recipe. To be honest, when I saw this recipe, I admired the contestant’s innovative idea and intelligence, but I never dared to imagine it would succeed.”

Suppressing the once again heated discussion, Kong Ye continued, ”Hence, I would like to thank Judge Wang Zangjian. He didn’t easily neglect our contestant’s replied. He looked carefully at this pill recipe and gave us a positive feedback.”

”So,” Kong Ye looked around and said slowly, ”this contestant should’ve gotten nine points on the first round. If we had taken into consideration his recipe, then he might have even gotten ten points again. However, I only gave him eight points before and this in itself is unfair.”

”So that’s it! Doesn’t that mean that Ye Mo got 20 points in the first two rounds? It sounds a little unfair,” some people doubted his words.

Kong Ye said again, ”It’s not unfair. Even if he had gotten 20 points, it’s not the reason I want him to get the first place. Ye Mo raked first because he made the spirit weaving pill, a spirit pill that can repair and recover spirit sense. He has set a precedent on Luo Yue Continent!”

With this, the crowd finally erupted uncontrollably.
