Chapter 436: The Kind Suye
Amidst the melodious music, the award ceremony for the sprint event began.
First of all, the eight athletes in the top sixteen will be awarded the top sixteen wreaths.
Then give the quarterfinals wreaths to the fourth to eighth place.
Then, the champion, runner-up and third runner-up walked to the podium.
Prizes will be presented to the runner-up and the third runner-up first. In addition to the corresponding garland, each has a piece of silver divine power equipment.
In the end, a chief priest of the Temple of Apollo came forward and personally wore a champion wreath for Su Ye, awarded the "Pythia Sprint Champion Trophy", and presented him with a piece of golden divine power equipment, battlefield boots.
The value of the golden divine power equipment made by the temple is often three to five times that of ordinary gold divine power equipment, and some are even equivalent to the lowest-end sanctuary magic equipment.
The runner-up Geerner looked at Su Ye enviously. He really wanted this battlefield boots that exuded a faint golden light.
The gentle-faced head priest handed out a magic beard to Su Ye, and said, "Su Ye, as the sprint champion of the Pythia Competition, what do you want to say to the audience present?"
Su Ye put on a magic beard, looked affectionately at the place where the audience in the city-state of Athens was, and said slowly: "Although some nobles of Athens framed me, slandered me, mutilated me, and exiled me, I don't hate them. My honor , I still belong to all Athens and all Greece, and I am still an Athenian. I believe that since the nobles of Athens believe in gods, they will definitely welcome me back to Athens with goodwill."
The audience froze for a moment, and the faces of the nobles in Athens turned black instantly.
Many nobles almost cursed out loud.
This is the All-Greek Games!
There are not only prominent families from various city-states here, but also priests from major temples!
There are even foreign envoys.
Su ye's words can be understood as he still regards himself as an Athenian.
However, it is also clearly pointing out the crimes of the Athenian nobles.
Except for the mentally retarded, no one would think that Su ye was going to surrender to the nobles.
An inexplicable smile appeared on the Spartan's face.
Suddenly, a familiar voice from Su ye roared.
"Welcome to Sparta!"
The cry of Commodes.
Then the Spartans began booing and shouting.
"Welcome to Sparta!"
"Welcome to Sparta!"
The nobles of Athens looked in the direction of the Spartans and cursed in low voices.
Before the Spartans could finish their fun, a new voice sounded.
"Welcome to Miletus!"
"Welcome to Miletus!"
Everyone looked at the place where the Miletus people were. Miletus is a city of magicians. It is normal to come out to help Su ye at this time.
"Tube welcomes you!"
"Tube welcomes you!"
Many people roared with laughter, but they didn't expect the Tebai people to join in the fun. Tebai actually had a good relationship with Athens, but not with Sparta.
In the Greek army, Tebai is the only city-state that can confront Sparta head-on without losing the wind.
After all, Hercules is a Tebai.
"Come to Macedonia!"
"Come to Macedonia!"
A group of Macedonians also shouted.
Many Greek city-states looked at Macedonia unhappily. In fact, in the eyes of the Greeks, Macedonia is a typical foreign barbarian, but it borders Greece, and the speed of Hellenization is high, and it often fights against Northern Europe. The two sides often cooperate. It also defaults to Macedonia as Greece.
"Come to Rome!"
"Come to Rome!"
The new roar made the Greeks dumbfounded, and the guys in the Roman Empire really dared to make any jokes.
The priests of those temples behaved differently.
Some watched the farce with a smile, some looked calm, and some frowned.
The priests of the peaceful god system looked at Su ye with a little disgust on their faces, but the priests of the disharmony god system were elated and discussed how to help Su ye.
Most of the nobles in Athens had dark faces and said nothing.
The civilian audience sitting behind the nobleman looked at the nobleman's back, all with sneering smiles.
A scene that no one expected happened.
The chief priest of the Sun Temple nodded and said, "I also believe that no city-state would be foolish enough to drive away someone as glorious as you."
This time, a small number of Athenian nobles showed panic.
If the Sun Temple only praised Suye at the beginning, then this time, it was supporting him.
The nobles of Athens looked at each other suspiciously. What path did Su ye go to make the priests of the Temple of the Sun protect him like this?
Some Athenian nobles who believed in Apollo were frightened and bowed their heads silently.
The first championship award ceremony of the Pythia Tournament ended in a weird atmosphere.
Subsequently, the host announced that after half an hour of rest, the round-trip race will begin.
Su ye found a safe place, meditated, and quickly regained his strength.
Those fighters who participated in the sprint event and continued to participate in the round-trip run also began to meditate to restore their physical strength.
This kind of competition will have strict regulations. Except that you can use divine power and magic power to restore physical strength and eliminate fatigue at night, it is forbidden to use any unnatural power to restore during the competition time, and no rest at noon is allowed. Competitors are not even allowed to leave the confinement circle.
This is also one of the reasons why there are very few champions, because the intensity of the competition is extremely high, and a big project has to be completed in a day, and without sufficient rest, the physical strength has dropped sharply.
When the time is up, the round trip starts.
The round-trip race schedule is the same as the sprint, and the top eight are selected from the top thirty-two.
Since the total distance of round-trip running is 800 meters, the physical strength of the athletes is extremely exhausted, which leads everyone to play a game. It is necessary to save physical strength before the final, but not too economical, otherwise it is very likely that they will not be able to break into the quarterfinals.
Su ye successfully entered the final.
Eight people arrived at the track, and the other seven athletes looked at Su ye warily.
Among these seven people, two people also participated in the previous sprint finals, including the runner-up, Gerner of the Beifeng family.
Geerner has been staring at Su ye, or in other words, he has been staring at Su ye since the start of the round-trip race.
Even though he was a descendant of the God of the North Wind, his physical strength was obviously insufficient. In the next finals, he could only rely on his will and skill to compete for the championship, but Su Ye didn't show signs of fatigue at all. He couldn't understand why.
"Prepare!"
The referee's voice sounded.
Afterwards, both the referee and the players were stunned.
Su ye squatted down again, and used the squat start again.
Everyone vaguely understood that Su ye's posture could speed up the starting speed, but this was an 800-meter race, not a 200-meter race. What's the use of sprinting in the first place?
There were indeed people in history who were able to sprint 800 meters. Hercules could, and so could a few geniuses from demigod families, but that was no longer based on skill or body, but on strong talent.
A magician who dared to run like this was looking for death.
"Sure enough, I'm still proud." Geerner sighed softly, but then the joy on his face was fleeting.
I have a chance!
Geerner silently calculated in his heart that the monster Hercules was not counted, and the championship time of the 800 round-trip run was basically about 50 seconds. He only needed to keep the top four at the beginning, and keep a sufficient distance from the first place. In the last 400 meters , sprinting with all his strength, he definitely has a chance to win the championship.
The Beifeng family, the king of the racetrack!
Gerner clenched his right fist tightly.
The referee's whistle sounded.
The seven athletes immediately stepped forward. They were different from the 200-meter sprint in terms of speed, stride, frequency, breathing and other aspects. It seemed that the distance of the runway was only extended, but in fact it changed greatly.
The audience on the field let out bursts of exclamation.
It turned out that Su ye was sprinting at full speed from the start.
This time, the seven athletes behind Su ye did not despair, but smiled.
It turned out to be a fool.
The seven continued to run at their own pace, but as they ran, their complexions suddenly changed slightly.
Su ye was rushing towards him.
what happened?
Why did Su ye bypass the turning point and started to return?
Why is it completely different from what you expected?
What about slowing down due to insufficient physical strength?
Why did Su ye still maintain his sprint speed when returning from the turning point?
Whoosh...
Su ye passed through seven people, and the strong wind blew their hair.
The seven people resisted the desire to turn back and continued to rush towards the turning point, getting closer and closer to the turning point.
Suddenly, thunderous spectators shouted in my ears.
The seven athletes gritted their teeth, determined not to look back, rushed to the turning point, and then turned around with far better skills and perfect angles than usual.
Not to run back, but to take a look at Su ye for the first time.
Everyone just glanced at it, and their hearts became cold.
The crossing line at the end was lying on the ground, and when the wind blew, it flipped slightly.
Su ye had already crossed the finish line and was walking slowly.
Su ye's back seemed to cover the sky.
We also cover sports dream of seven people.
The seven people ran with all their strength in grief and indignation, resisting the urge to wipe their tears, and went forward with all their strength, forward, and forward!
Running, Gerner's vision blurred, he turned grief and anger into strength, far ahead of the others, and crossed the finish line second.
The host's voice sounded.
"Look at this Geerner of the Beifeng family. He won the runner-up of the competition at a young age, and shed tears with excitement. These are tears of sincerity, tears of hard work, and tears of glory. Let us congratulate the Beifeng family double runner-up, Gerner!"
The audience cheered for Gerner.
Gerner was crying, and kept roaring in his heart.
I was made to cry by Su ye!
Double runner-up?
Gerner cried even harder.
Without Su ye, he would be a double champion!
So bullying!
"Look, the runner-up tears of joy, the breath of youth!" The host was even more enthusiastic.
Su ye turned his head to look at Geerner, feeling that something was wrong, forget it, let's go to the podium.
The awards ceremony for the round trip will be held as usual.
Gerner took over the runner-up garland and the runner-up silver divine power equipment with red eyes.
Then, Su ye received the championship wreath, the championship trophy, and the golden divine power equipment, the Swift Gaiters.
"That's what I want too." Gerner's gaze was glued to the shimmering greaves.
Seeing Su ye shining like the sun, Geerner's heart was bleeding.
The chief priest of the Sun Temple walked up to Su ye again and handed Su ye a magic beard.
"I think you should wear a magic beard to compete, it will save time, viewers, don't you think?"
"yes!"
The audience giggled in response.
"So, our round-trip champion, Su Ye, tell me, what is the strength that supports you to sprint all the way?"
The audience pricked up their ears.
"Justice." Su ye looked serious.
The audience was silent for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
The faces of the nobles in Athens turned green.
How long will I be spoiled by Su ye?
Is it over?
