C226 Be Belittled
When Wang Yu and the others arrived at the courtyard where the banquet was held, they did not attract anyone's attention. After all, among the crowd, they were the most ordinary ones.
Ying Kuo was one of the most favored princes, and he had plenty of resources and wealth.
He invited 24 countries, and the nearly 200 alchemists sent out by nearly 40 powers used only a single banquet hall to include all of them.
The representatives of the forty forces were vaguely divided into three rows.
The first tier was naturally the Royal College, Flying Eagle Sect, Huai Prefecture Academy, and the Hundred Herbs House four families. Because the four families were not only powerful, they had also sent out many alchemists, and were also popular as champions.
Amongst them, Royal College, Flying Eagle Sect, and Huai Prefecture's people had all come.
To this, everyone was not dissatisfied, one must know that the Hundred Herbs House did not only have industries in them, it also had industries in other countries in the Middle Kingdom, so they were truly business leaders.
In addition, alchemists focused their attention on elixirs, elixirs, and the like. Alchemists were innumerable, and geniuses were endless as well.
Their leader would definitely be the strongest competitor, even closer to the champions than Ying Shuang, Gu Wei and Shu Donghua.
The second tier was the sects and academies that were slightly weaker. Basically, they sent out multiple alchemists that were at the peak of Grade Two and even refined high quality Grade Two Medicinal Pills.
The third tier was the echelon of the remaining factions, and also the most ordinary ones.
The Tiancheng College that Wang Yu and the rest were on, according to the results of previous years, belonged to the third tier which was ranked relatively higher.
Logically speaking, they should be sitting on the third tier.
However, before they could take their seats, the middle-aged man from before walked over. "Your seats are not here."
Wang Yu looked at the middle-aged man with a smile and waved his hand, signaling the middle-aged man to lead the way.
Seeing Wang Yu's indifferent expression, the middle-aged man frowned and brought Wang Yu and the others to the front of the second tier.
Specifically, he ranked behind the Royal College, Flying Eagle Sect, Huai Prefecture Academy and the Hundred Herbs House four families.
They wanted to put Wang Yu and the others behind the other forces in the first tier and place them in the first tier.
Wang Yu finally understood Ying Kuo's intentions.
Even the expressions of Zhou Dinghai, Qiu Ling and the rest changed. They knew that Wang Yu had a grudge with Third Prince due to the friction in front of the manor. Third Prince's actions were not very friendly.
Zhou Dinghai glanced at the expressions of the forces behind him. Sure enough, most of them were looking at them with sullen expressions.
He wasn't sure yet. The ones who were dissatisfied with them, whether it was the powers behind them, or the people in the first tier, were all dissatisfied as well.
The person who was the most dissatisfied was Flying Eagle Sect's Gu Wei.
Gu Wei was a very proud person with his abilities. Even though Wang Yu and the others were sitting behind them, logically, they would not be able to threaten them.
However, Gu Wei's pride was behind him. He should be followed by people with similar strength to him.
Wang Yu and the others were the representatives of Tiancheng College, and were not considered number one in the entire Qin Country, but they were so close to him, in his eyes, made him feel uncomfortable.
The cold gaze of the Ninth Princess of the Royal College, Ying Shuang, swept across Wang Yu and the others before retracting.
Shu Donghua, on the other hand, glanced at Wang Yu with interest. Coincidentally, he saw the deep gaze in Wang Yu's eyes, and from Wang Yu's gaze, he saw the boundless universe.
This was no ordinary fellow.
Shu Donghua thought in his heart. Looking at Wang Yu's eyes, he did not look down on him like others. There was also caution in his eyes. It seemed that he considered Wang Yu as an opponent on the same level as Gu Wei and Ying Shuang.
Everyone's attention was on him, except Shu Donghua. Wang Yu paused for a second.
As for the others, these people looked down on him. Since when did he, Wang Yu, ever think highly of these people? He calmly drank from the wine cup on the table.
It was as if he had tacitly acknowledged this position.
"Indeed, wild and unruly."
While Wang Yu was being looked down on by other people, someone was quietly observing the banquet hall from the shadows.
One of them was an extremely charming woman, Yu Rujiao. At this moment, she was respectfully guarding the side of a young man.
That young man's clothes were luxurious. He wore a purple python gown, had a purple-gold crown on his head, and carried the aura of a person with a higher position.
This person was the host of this banquet, Third Prince and Ying Kuo.
He was secretly observing the situation in the banquet hall. Looking at Wang Yu, who was being designed by him, he clearly knew that this was just a show of support. Not only did he not refuse, he even calmly sat on his seat.
In this situation, it could only mean that Wang Yu was either a fool or a madman with extreme confidence.
To be able to become an alchemist, and also be able to represent an academy to participate in General Meeting of Alchemists, it was impossible for him to be a fool.
Extremely confident fanatics had one thing in common: they were rebellious and unruly.
The more such a person was, the less likely they would be to be subservient to others. Similarly, if they could subdue such a person, once they were subdued by him, they would definitely become his helpers.
"I hope you won't be too stubborn."
Ying Kuo looked at Wang Yu with a cold glint in his eyes. Such a talented person like him, if he could not be tamed, he could only be eliminated so that he would not bring disaster upon himself in the future.
… ….
"Humph!" When it comes to those fellows who have taken shortcuts, they are still going to show their true colors. " In the third tier, there was an alchemist representative who spoke out in dissatisfaction.
From his point of view, Wang Yu and the others could only be at the front of the line, fawning and gifting gifts.
There was more than one person who shared the same thought.
Even Flying Eagle Sect and the others thought so, so Gu Wei was even more disgusted with Wang Yu and the others.
"How could he still have the face to sit there? If I didn't need to be told, then he would have obediently come down." In the third tier, there were still people who looked at Wang Yu and the others with eyes full of jealousy.
If they were able to do so, who wouldn't want to?
"Don't worry. The people in the second tier won't be able to sit still any longer than us. Someone will soon clean them up." Some people laughed, while others began to laugh sinisterly.
Sure enough, watching Wang Yu casually drink his wine, someone in the second tier could not sit still anymore. Someone suddenly stood up and mocked: "Trash from Tiancheng College, you deserve a seat, why aren't you rolling down."
With someone taking the lead, those who were dissatisfied with Wang Yu and the others who were sitting at the front started to jeer.
Flying Eagle Sect's Gu Wei said coldly: "This is not a place for you to sit. Scram!"
The world was filled with curses.
Crack!
Wu Yunniang and Soong Laosan were glaring at the crowd. At the same time, they were also unhappy with Wang Yu. If it wasn't for the gap between Wang Yu and Third Prince, they wouldn't have been tricked like this.
Qiu Ling and Zhou Dinghai were much calmer. They looked at Wang Yu. What would this leader do in such a situation?
Watching the angry stares of the crowd, Wang Yu smiled and tapped the table with the middle finger of his right hand.
