Chapter 1288 - 1288 Press Conference Venue

1288 Press Conference Venue

When the participants began to advance from the space station to the ground of the asteroid belt of the Endless Abyss, a large group of people also gathered on the upper floor of the space station above their heads.

A press conference officially held by the royal family of the Declan Empire was held here.

This press conference was the first public press conference held by the organizers of the Garden Hunting Assembly to face the outside world since it was opened. Naturally, it attracted media reporters from various countries.

Yang Xirui stood in a corner and secretly covered her mouth to yawn.

She had been busy producing the program these few days and had only slept for less than four hours for a few consecutive nights. Now, she could stand here only because she had taken the time to catch up on sleep on the way here. Otherwise, she would probably not be able to stand steadily.

Although she did not think that this press conference could bring any big news, as the only media reporter sent by the Earth Federation, she naturally had to appear at this important occasion.

After all, this was the first press conference held by the royal family of the Declan Empire for the Garden Hunting Assembly. For the first time, media reporters like them had the chance to directly talk to the royal family of the Declan Empire. How could any media be willing to miss it?

It would have been fine if no participant from the Earth Federation had entered the second stage of the Garden Hunting Assembly, but now that someone had successfully entered, it would be unreasonable not to report it.

When she thought of this, Yang Xirui could not help but smile bitterly.

Just yesterday, when Henrik found her, she was a little puzzled at first, but when he hesitantly expressed his intention, Yang Xirui did not know whether to laugh or cry.

To be honest, she naturally could not say anything to Henrik’s choice. After all, this was the Garden Hunting Assembly that he had participated in himself. It was none of Yang Xirui’s business if he decided to give up at this moment.

However, from the perspective of her compatriots in the Earth Federation, Yang Xirui naturally hoped that Henrik could persist and even try his best to obtain good results in the end and bring back powerful martial techniques for the Earth Federation.

Even without considering the practical benefits of martial techniques, it was not easy for Henrik to break through the first stage of the Garden Hunting Assembly and become one of the only three young martial artists in the Earth Federation to enter the second stage. If he chose to retreat at this critical moment, it would be too unreasonable.

If this decision was exposed, not only would it be a huge blow to Henrik’s personal honor and spread to the ears of other countries, it would also make the entire Earth Federation laugh.

Therefore, from many aspects and the fact that Chu Nan had privately found Yang Xirui and hoped that she could help, she could only help Henrik in the end.

There was no need to make fake news. Just using words to change some of the focus in the reports regarding Henrik was enough to make people have a completely different impression of him leaving the second stage.

Perhaps some people still suspected it, but at the very least, most of the citizens of the Earth Federation would not think that Henrik had chickened out.

Moreover, the Federation’s Consulting Martial Arts World Channel that Yang Xirui represented was the only media that had been officially approved by the Earth Federation and allowed to report about the Garden Hunting Assembly. Apart from Yang Xirui, if the people of the Earth Federation wanted to know the relevant information about the Garden Hunting Assembly, they could only do it through Yang Xirui’s report and some comments on the Milky Way Network.

The information on the Milky Way Network was mixed with good and bad. Of course, it would not obtain the trust of many people because of this. Therefore, Yang Xirui’s report played a decisive role.

With her support, Henrik’s withdrawal would not trigger too many people’s overreactions.

Of course, it was impossible to not cause any controversy.

Ever since Yang Xirui’s report about Henrik choosing to leave the Garden Hunting Assembly was released, she had been receiving communication questions from all sides these few days. Countless people maintained their doubts about Henrik’s withdrawal and asked Yang Xirui the truth.

Some of these people were only ordinary friends that Yang Xirui knew in private. Some were from other related media outlets, and some were famous and extremely high-ranking figures in the federation. It could be seen how much attention the Garden Hunting Assembly had attracted in the Earth Federation.

In order to deal with these people’s questions and deal with her work during this period of time, Yang Xirui had racked her brain these few days and was exhausted from dealing with them. It would be strange if she was in good spirits.

“Hey, isn’t this Miss Yang from the Earth Federation?” A slightly mocking voice suddenly sounded beside Yang Xirui, “What? Isn’t Miss Yang on good terms with Locket of the Camille Pioneer News Office and didn’t let him arrange a good seat for you? You’re squeezed in this corner with us this time? Could it be that… Locket has another lover? Haha…”

Yang Xirui turned around and could not help but frown.

The person who spoke was the only media reporter in the Kingdom of Kexley who had been approved to report on this Garden Hunting Assembly, Safen. Due to the relationship between the Earth Federation and the Kingdom of Kexley, Safen had never had a good expression when he saw Yang Xirui a few times previously. Moreover, he was often dissatisfied with the special treatment she received because of her relationship with Locket. Now that he saw Yang Xirui squeezed in the corner with her, he naturally could not help but mock her.

“I don’t think Mr. Locket’s new lover is you.”

Yang Xirui replied coldly before turning around and ignoring Safen.

She was not in good spirits now, so she did not have that much energy to waste on dealing with Safen.

Safen did not expect that although Yang Xirui looked gentle and weak on the surface, her personality was indeed so unyielding. Moreover, Yang Xirui’s reaction to him the previous few times was not so intense. She was immediately stunned and was about to mock her back when she suddenly heard the host announce the official start of the press conference. She could only immediately return her attention to the rostrum ahead and did not have the time to argue with Yang Xirui.

His gaze landed on the rostrum and he saw a group of people walking out from backstage. Although the reporters present were not very familiar with some of the people in front, they had more or less interacted with them a few times. They were all official representatives sent by the royal family of the Declan Empire to hold the Garden Hunting Assembly.

Everyone only glanced at them before immediately turning their attention to the group of people who appeared behind them.

Or more accurately, it was transferred to a burly man surrounded by everyone in the crowd who walked out like a moon surrounded by stars.

This burly man was strong and had a shocking aura. As his footsteps moved, they were like dragons and tigers. With just a few simple steps, he fully displayed the figure of a powerful martial artist and the nobility of his status. Moreover, he did not make people feel any suddenness, as if he was born like this.

All the reporters’ gazes landed on this person, instantly causing a commotion.

“Oh my god! It’s actually him!”

“No way! He actually attended!”

“Oh! I was wrong. There must be big news at this press conference! Damn it! I should have sent all my people over!”

…

Yang Xirui’s gaze also landed on this person. She watched in surprise as he walked from the backstage to the rostrum in a few steps. He walked to the center without holding back, but he did not sit down. Instead, he stood there and his lightning-like gaze swept past all the media reporters present.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Prince Lekas. I believe you’ve all heard of me.”
