When Long Kongkong emerged, his fellow competitors couldn't help but express surprise.
The first reason was that his face seemed unfamiliar to the majority. Those who entered the competition were all 9th Rank divine knights, or even disciples of God's Seal knights. They frequently interacted with each other during their routine affairs, and even took part in some of the Knight's Temple's tasks and trials. But for most people, Long Kongkong didn't ring any bells.
Long Kongkong graduated from Spirit Furnace Academy, and he graduated midway through his studies, only really attending for a year. He then became a member of a demon hunting team, and accompanied the team on their missions. He was too young, and details of him and Long Dangdang were tightly sealed by the Knights Temple, so not many people knew about him.
Long Kongkong, seemingly socially adept, walked up and saluted in a friendly manner.
