Ma Xiaoru's face lit up with glee, "The world would be a better place if everyone thought like you . Whatever you decide to do, I will always be with you . "
Wang Tong held onto Ma Xiaoru's hand and felt grateful for having such an understanding fiancé .
"Thank you for saying that . It means a lot to me . "
"There's no need to worry about it right now . A lot of your questions will be answered inside the Hall of Valhalla . Don't forget about Mr . Wannabe . "
"You bet! He is my priority . I thought my life was miserable, but every time I think of you, Old Fart, and Mr . Wannabe, I feel there is really nothing to complain about . "
"Let me guess . . . your life will be perfect if Li Feng didn't give you the title of the savior?"
"Haha, you know me the best . I felt that Li Shiming was a better fit for that role than me . He loves to be the one that's calling the shots, and knows how to handle responsibilities . Although Michaux and Patroclus are both capable of taking up the challenge, they don't seem to care about the world as much as Li Shiming does . "
"Nailed it . Michaux cares only about his cultivation, and Patroclus . . . Dad used to tell me to never trust a Dower . " Ma Xiaoru had hit the mark . Three centuries ago, Rilangalos had hidden among the earthlings for ten years to destroy the entire human fleet in a blink . But in the end, he switched sides again and aided Li Feng .
In the three hundred years that followed, the Dower had many opportunities to dominate the world when the other factions were tangled in in-fighting, but they never did . Their quietness, however, did not amount to lack of ambitions, as they maintained a tight grip on many aspects of Confederation's politics .
As for Patroclus, he had caught people off guard countless times . Not only had he allowed Wang Tong seven days to recuperate, but he had also passed up many opportunities to finish Wang Tong during the battle . The nonchalant and carefree appearance carefully eclipsed the seemingly self-contradicting motivations . Unlike Patroclus, Li Shiming was much easier to read; he never hid his real ambitions .
"Ah . . . Why did they have to make things so complicated? Be like me and don't hide anything . I just want to be a fleet captain and marry you and have kids while we are still young . Haha!"
"Who said I want to have kids with you?" Ma Xiaoru hurried to pick up a meatball and forced it into Wang Tong's mouth like jamming a stopper into the wine battle .
The two talked and laughed, painting a rare picture of happiness during this brief moment of respite .
It had been a while since the Templar's court had seen so many visitors, and everyone eagerly waited for the opening of the Hall of Valhalla . For most people, this could be the only chance in their life to step into the sacred hall that held the most important secrets of mankind .
Zhou Sisi had also arrived at the court a few days after Wang Tong . She was accompanied by core members of the S club . Although they were not supposed to be there since she didn't make it into the final, Wang Tong had invited them to enter the court . It caught Wang Tong by surprise how Old Fart had quickly accepted his request, which made him sense the convenience of having his new title .
"Sh*t! Boss, is this your hood?" Karl gawked at the exuberant city and asked . Since they were Wang Tong's friends, the court had rolled out the red carpet for them .
"I have never thought that I would come to this place one day . "
"Just saw some disciples during their training session . It was brutal!"
"Of course, this is where all the badasses are . We are badasses too now! "
"Where is Hu Yangxuan?" Karl asked .
"He has old friends here, must be with them . You won't find Cao Yi and Apache either . One is busy recording everything, and the other…fighting . "
"You should join me the day after tomorrow at the opening of the Hall . " Wang Tong asked .
"Are we qualified?" Zhen Zhong asked in disbelief .
"Of course, I make the rules here . It's all about luck anyway . "
"Mwahahaha! This is it! That will be my time to shine! I can feel it! " Karl shouted hysterically despite his friends' eye-rolling .
"Me too?" Rumi pointed at herself sheepishly .
"Why not? You never know, you could be the chosen one!" Wang Tong beamed from side to side .
Rumi blushed . "Ok, I will give it a try . "
To the Templars, the guardians of the Hall, no other day held more significance than the day of Hall-Opening . This was the third time the Hall had opened to the outside world during the court's three hundred years of history . The number of people attending the event was unprecedented . In addition to the young warriors from the tournament, the grand master had also called back hundreds of disciples scattered around different galaxies .
The Templar masters were in white robes, chanting an archaic verse at the top of the long stairs that abruptly ended at an altar . At the bottom of the stairs stood hundreds of anticipating warriors .
"Ah . . . It's too hot! Start already!" Karl wiped the sweat off his forehead as he complained .
"Shut up, Karl!" Zhou Sisi refuted .
Wang Tong cracked a smiled and said, "The proceeding is quite onerous . I almost feel sorry for those old bones up there . " Wang Tong also wondered how the Hall of Valhalla was going to appear out of thin air .
Patroclus waited quietly with a half-bored, half-arrogant look . On the other hand, Lie Jian was jumping up and down, unable to control his burgeoning anticipation .
As the master's chanting ended on a high note, the grand master stepped forward and secured a sizeable golden emblem into a perfectly-fit slot on the statue of the Blade Warrior .
The sky answered with a rumbling, and the din ushered in dark clouds . As more distant rumblings joined the carol, the daylight disappeared, and dark impenetrable clouds smothered the sun . Suddenly, a flash of bright light tore an opening in the shadows, revealing a gate-like structure .
Basking under the sun, the gate looked magnificent . The Templar masters' overwrought faces finally relaxed, and some of them sighed out in a profound relief .
Wang Tong was amused by the elaborated ceremony and the intense look on the masters' faces .
The gate cracked open slowly and steadily .
As light poured out from the other side, all the Templars and their disciples kneeled before it . This was an old-fashioned miracle in the age of advanced science . Many were stunned by the perplexing development . Did gods really exist?
As the light rained down from the sky and fell on Wang Tong, he felt his body being lifted, and he actually was . The light guided his body as he floated closer to the gate .
The masters had anticipated this, since Wang Tong was supposed to be the heir of the Blade Warrior . The grand master watched Wang Tong with a solemn face; he knew the boy was about to embark on a treacherous path .
