Chapter 117. Spark Team, Overall Champions

Jiang Yichen's words instantly left Tang Wuji speechless, and he could only swallow the slight and shut his mouth.

Although he did not care much about face, after all, a live-in son-in-law like him did not really have much face to begin with.

Still, being spoken to like that by a junior was genuinely a little embarrassing.

But Jiang Zhentian's strength was there for all to see, so there was nothing he could do about it.

He sighed and nodded. "Fine then... Meng Yan, think it over carefully before the Military District Internship."

"Old Tang, you..."

"Oh, get lost. Once Jiang Zhentian returns to Central China, you will understand." Tang Wuji shot Chu Ningfeng a glare and turned to head back to the VIP section.

Chu Ningfeng frowned in thought. What has happened to Jiang Zhentian now? He had only become a Demigod. That alone should not have been enough to make the Commander-in-Chief's son-in-law compromise with a junior like this.

"Yichen, he is a ticking time bomb. You need to be careful."

Su Zhan gave up on lecturing him and spoke in a worried tone instead.

Hearing that, Jiang Yichen nodded slightly. "Thank you, Uncle Zhan. I know."

If this had been before, Su Zhan would definitely have criticized him at a time like this, saying he had dared to offend even Huaxia's Commander-in-Chief and so on.

It seemed that after their last conversation, there really had been some change.

"Meng Yan, wake them up. Congratulations on winning the championship." Su Zhan rubbed his cane and revealed a kind smile.

Sleep God slowly rose to his feet and lifted a hand. "Return from the dream."

As his words fell, countless white threads flew out from the bodies of the entire audience and swirled back around Sleep God.

The instant the Power of Laws was withdrawn, Sleep God's eyelids grew heavy, and he collapsed against Jiang Yichen's shoulder, sinking into deep sleep.

Jiang Yichen sighed inwardly. What a miserable soul.

After helping Sleep God lean against a pillar by the edge of the battle stage, he returned to the audience seats, while Su Zhan and Chu Ningfeng also went back to the VIP section as if nothing had happened.

Sleep God's secret was classified information and had to be kept confidential.

That was also a form of protection for him.

【Ding! Congratulations, Host, for making a Slacking Choice. Reward: 'Supreme-grade Slacking Gift Pack.' Would you like to open it?】

It had arrived.

In the audience seats, Jiang Yichen looked at the reward that had just come in and smiled faintly.

"Open it," he said inwardly.

【Congratulations, Host. You have obtained: Supreme-grade · Law, ten billion in funds】

Supreme-grade · Law!

Jiang Yichen froze for a moment and opened the description.

【Supreme-grade · Law: Allows a martial artist to randomly comprehend one Law. Note: Use with caution if the physical body is incapable of bearing a Law.】

What?

Since when have Supreme-grade Gift Packs become ridiculously overpowered?

Sleep God had already proven just how strong Laws were.

And his own Space Law was even more monstrous. At his current level, even peak Eighth-Realm Martial Emperors could do basically nothing to him.

Jiang Yichen nodded slightly. He remembered that in his previous life, his mother had also broken through to Martial God after finishing the Military District Internship.

He could give it to her then. Su Linyu's realm was still too low, so she could not use it yet.

Just imagining the Jiang family having two gods made Jiang Yichen feel that he would be able to coast through life even more easily.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Now that the finals were over, he could go back to happily slacking off and enjoying life again.

This felt great!

Time slowly passed, and the audience gradually woke up.

"Ah... what happened? Why did I fall asleep?"

"Same here. I dreamed that I got castrated by a woman. It was terrifying. I will never be a playboy again."

"Holy shit! So we all fell asleep for no reason? What the hell happened? Can someone explain this?"

"Who knows? I only remember that pretty face from Spark Team suddenly made his move and wiped out all of Yanhuang Team's attacks. It was terrifyingly strong."

"Same. I thought he really was just for show, but it turns out he is insanely powerful. Sure enough, the real bosses always make their appearance at the very end."

"..."

The audience members all woke up, and the arena was soon filled with an endless stream of chaotic discussion.

On the battle stage, Su Linyu and the others from Spark Team also woke up. Looking at the Yanhuang Team still lying on the stage and not yet awake, they were somewhat bewildered.

"What kind of spell was that from Sleep God? He put me to sleep instantly." Tang Long rubbed his dazed head.

Lei Zhen raised his right hand and sighed. "Sure enough, only in dreams can my right hand recover."

"Uncle Lei, you dreamed about that? I dreamed about my glorious life instead." Tang Long looked smug.

"What life?"

"Hugging a powerful thigh, soaring straight to the top, and walking all the way to the peak of the martial path."

Lei Zhen: "..."

"Hero Chu, what about you?"

Chu Xingchen's mouth twitched, and he stubbornly replied, "I didn't dream."

"I dreamed too..."

"Stop!" Tang Long raised a hand. "Let me guess. Captain definitely dreamed about Brother Yichen, right?"

Su Linyu's eyes widened, and she tapped her two index fingers together. "How did you know? In my dream, I took the initiative to kiss Brother Yichen, and he did not reject me. I am so excited."

"No, I have to write this down."

With that, she took out her phone and typed a note into today's date on the calendar.

"Another surprising day. I dreamed that I kissed Brother Yichen. So happy!"

"..."

Tang Long, Chu Xingchen, and Lei Zhen all covered their faces.

From the audience seats, Jiang Yichen let out a helpless chuckle.

"Sleep God, wake up!"

Lei Zhen found Sleep God leaning against the pillar at the edge of the stage and directly shocked him with electricity, instantly turning his soft hair into a messy exploded bird's nest.

Sleep God's face twitched, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"So, you dreamed too," Lei Zhen joked.

"Sleep God, you're amazing. Sleeping you actually controls Laws. I'm so jealous." Tang Long gave him a thumbs-up in praise.

Chu Xingchen helped Sleep God to his feet and smiled. "As expected of our main force. Impressive."

"Sleep God made the biggest contribution. Brother Yichen will definitely praise you at the celebration banquet." Su Linyu revealed a sweet smile.

Listening to his teammates praise him, Sleep God's nose suddenly turned a little sour.

In the past, when he fell asleep, he had been a murderous monster in other people's eyes.

But now, he is the Spark Team's great hero.

This kind of recognition was something he had never had before.

"Oh right, Sleep God, all of us dreamed. Did you dream about anything?" Tang Long asked.

Sleep God was stunned for a moment, then a gentle smile appeared on his lips. "I dreamed that I was an ordinary person, lying in bed and enjoying a good sleep."

Hearing that, the four of them were all briefly taken aback.

For most people, it was the simplest thing in the world.

But for Sleep God, it was something he could only do in a dream.

"A big shot's dream really is that simple and plain," Tang Long said with a sigh.

At that moment, the host above the arena woke up, rubbed his aching head, and looked down at the battle stage.

The Spark Team was gathered around Sleep God, chatting and laughing, while on the other side Yanhuang Team was still sprawled on the ground, fast asleep.

The result of the match was already unmistakably clear.

"Ahem!"

The host picked up the microphone and cleared his throat twice. The entire arena gradually quieted down as well.

"Let us thank Spark Team and Yanhuang Team for bringing us such a magnificent peak showdown. While we regret that Yanhuang Team failed to defend their championship, we are also amazed by the shock brought to us by Spark Team, this dark horse."

"And now I announce that the overall champions of the 30th Huaxia Team League are..."

"Spark Team!! Let us congratulate them!!"

The host's resounding voice echoed throughout the entire arena. Ceremonial cannons boomed in unison, and confetti rained down like a storm.

The entire audience rose to their feet together, raising Spark Team's flags and shouting for them.

"Spark Team is awesome!"
