Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Fang Wu is only ranked fourth!”
The Kings of the Netherworld Cult were shocked when they saw Fang Wu’s ranking They knew of Fang Wu’s strength and talent. He was definitely a prodigy in the cult who could compare with Chu Yunhe. They did not expect him to be ranked top, but he should at least be second.
Only Fang Wu and Chu Yunhe were left on the rankings among all the prodigies they know. But it seemed like there were still hidden geniuses.
They wonder which side those hidden geniuses belonged to.
It was clear that the competition between the geniuses of the righteous and demonic sects was not over yet. It was unknown who would have the last laugh.
Therefore, everyone from the Netherworld Cult was tensed up. They were worried that the top three would be swept by the orthodox sects.
In that case, the fiend sects would lose on the rankings today.
Of course, those from the various Holy Lands of the Great Zenith Domain had the same feelings as the members of the Netherworld Cult.
Their hearts sank when they saw more fiend sects on the rankings.
They looked at the Heavenly Dao Rankings and had no heart to speak anymore.
The only hope left was Chu Yunhe.
If he could rank first, he might be able to save some face for the orthodox sects.
Otherwise.
Human Rankings # 3: Chu Yunhe
Cultivation: Tribulation Initial Stage
Origin: Primordial Dao Holy Land
Reward: Enlightenment and Aptitude increase by 300%, Soul Strength increases by 300%, Karmic Luck increases by 100%
“Huh!”
The Primordial Dao Holy Land, the Grand Primordium Holy Land, the Divine Firmament Holy Land, the Violet Palace Holy Land, the Million Swords Holy Land, the Divine Pool Holy Land, and the many orthodox sects and families of the Great Zenith Domain.
Everyone was stunned as they looked at Chu Yunhe’s ranking in disappointment and shock.
For a moment, they felt that their faith had collapsed.
The publicly acknowledged number one genius of the current era, Chu Yunhe. He could only rank third.
No one could accept this fact, nor were they willing to believe it.
The seven Holy Land’s Holy Sons represented the ceiling of the current orthodox sects and the future hope of the orthodox sects.
Now that the ceiling had collapsed, this hope became despair.
“Third…” Perfected Tian Hui frowned slightly. This outcome was unexpected. After all, Perfected Tian Hui knew Chu Yunhe very well. His talent was absolutely one in a million years.
He was likely slightly superior to the breathtaking Li Qingyun in the past.
If such talent is only ranked third, how monstrous is the potential of the top two?
“I’ll expect no less in such a tumultuous era. It’s not just the demon race that produced unbelievable prodigies, but our human race has also produced unprecedented prodigies! But… I wonder which side these two prodigies that could stun the ages belong to.”
The Primordial Dao Holy Lord felt heavy-hearted yet excited. He was on pins and needles and worried at the same time. In short, he was conflicted.
If he put aside his status and the struggle between orthodox and demonic paths, he would be curious and looking forward to knowing the identities of the two unknown geniuses that could surpass Chu Yunhe.
“Sigh… I still have much to work on! I’m afraid I’ve disappointed many people on this occasion!” Chu Yunhe laughed at himself and shook his head slightly. He knew that his status as the Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect bore the hopes of countless people, so the pressure he felt when the Heavenly Sons of Heaven Rankings appeared was indeed heavy.
Although he was disappointed when he saw his ranking, he suddenly felt like a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
Since the dust had settled, all he had to do was cultivate diligently.
The path of cultivation was extremely long. A momentary win or loss was nothing. Chu Yunhe believed that the future was long and everything was only the beginning.
Chu Yunhe had good character, and the rankings did not affect his Dao heart.
“Are the remaining two people from the fiend sects?”
In the Clear Void Holy Land, a group of Elders discussed with grave expressions.
“It’s over. Our orthodox sects have lost this time. If the top two were from the fiend sects, seven of the top ten would be occupied by the demonic path. We only have three. Where would our orthodox sect’s face go?!”
“If we lose the top spot, we’ll be utterly defeated!”
“Could there be other hidden descendants of aristocratic families?”
“The chances are slim!”
“No, there might be one!” Perfected Taiqing suddenly interrupted everyone.
“Holy Lord, you mean that our orthodox path still has a hidden genius?” All the elders looked at Perfected Taiqing with burning eyes.
A glimmer of hope arose again.
Of course, apart from the Grand Elder, Perfected Myriad Dao, he had guessed who Perfected Taiqing was talking about. “Yes, Li Qingyun’s son, Li Yu!” Perfected Taiqing said word by word.
However, these words caused the elders’ faces to sink again, and their feelings suddenly became inexplicably complicated. “Li Qingyun’s son, Li Yu?” “We’ve never heard of him? Are you saying he is even stronger than Chu Yunhe?” All the elders looked at Perfected Taiqing in confusion. Duan Tianming and the others only reported Li Yu’s matter to Perfected Taiqing. They did not spread it around. After all, Li Yu’s identity was sensitive, so not many people in the Clear Void Holy Land knew about him. Perfected Taiqing did not explain himself further.
Although he did not know how strong Li Yu was, judging from the situation described by Duan Tianming and the others, Li Yu was at least above Zhou Yu.
With Li Yu’s strength and potential, getting on the ranking was a certainty. Since he had not appeared on the rankings for a long time, he was most likely among the top two.
Not mentioning the terrifying extent of his cultivation, he was probably worthy of the top two in terms of potential.
Compared to the heavy hearts of the people from the various Holy Lands of the Great Zenith Domain at the moment, the feelings of those from the many large sects of the Great Xia Dynasty could be described as excited, restless, and enthusiastic.
If Gu Yuqi was on the list, Li Yu would definitely be on it. Therefore, Li Yu would definitely be in the top two. A young man from the Great Xia Dynasty who had surpassed the seven Holy Lands. This was something to be proud of in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Without Li Yu, probably not many people worldwide would know anything about the Great Xia Dynasty.
The same went for the Great Zenith Domain.
Regardless, the Great Xia Dynasty would definitely become famous everywhere
after today. Those arrogant Holy Land experts of the Great Zenith Domain would have to pay them their respect.
Therefore, as members of the Great Xia Dynasty and admirers of Li Yu, they were naturally thrilled and proud.
“I believe Li Yu will definitely come in first!”
“That’s needless to say. Li Yu is only 17 years old, while those on the rankings are already 100-200 years old. Who can compare to Li Yu’s potential? Moreover, he’s the person who spoke the mantras of the Great Dao. No one in the world can compare to him!”
“You’re damn right. Li Yu is the fully deserving top prodigy, and the number one spot in the human race belongs to him!”
“Hurry, hurry! I can’t wait to see Li Yu’s name!”
“I just want to know what cultivation realm Li Yu is in!”?
“Hmm, I’m still curious if the Heavenly Dao Rankings will give him yet again an additional reward this time!”
At the moment, the Night Soul Lord of the Night God Palace was also in a good mood. Based on the current situation he observed, Night Whisper’s cultivation and power level were bound to be number one.
Chu Yunhe was only in the early stage of the Tribulation realm, while Night Whisper was already in the Mahayana realm. There was definitely no one among the human elites who could compete with Night Whisper.
“But who will be second? I’m quite curious.” The Night Soul Lord tapped his chin with his fingers and remarked with a smile.
Now that the known geniuses were on the rankings, he could not think of who would be second.
Night Whisper looked at the rankings curiously as well. At this moment, golden lights converged in the sky, and second place was about to be announced. Human Rankings # 2: Night Whisper
Cultivation: Mahayana Early Stage Origin: Night God Palace
Reward: Enlightenment and Aptitude increase by 400%, Soul Strength increases by 400%, Karmic Luck increases by 300%
“What!”
Night Soul Lord cried out in shock.
His eyes widened as he looked at the rankings in disbelief. His head suddenly went numb.
He would never have guessed that the second place would be Night Whisper. Not even her Mahayana cultivation realm could be ranked top. How was that possible!
The Mahayana Realm was a realm comparable to those old monsters in the first tier of this world.
If she could not even rank top, how terrifying was the actual first place?
“There’s actually someone stronger than Whisper in the younger generation? Unbelievable! Plus, it looks like he’s probably a genius who hasn’t emerged in front of the world!”
The Night Soul Lord could not calm down for a moment. After all, Night Whisper was already breathtaking enough in the current era. In fact, few humans could compare to her in both the past and present. Yet, she still could not get that top spot. Who can this person be? Is that person from our fiend sects or the Holy Lands? The Night Soul Lord’s expression was tense as he stared at the Heavenly Dao Rankings, waiting for the first place to be announced. On the other hand, Night Whisper was slightly disappointed. After all, she really believed that she would reach the top after listening to her confident master earlier.
However, she had never imagined that she was only ranked second. However, this disappointment vanished in an instant as she was similarly curious.
Who exactly managed to surpass me?
Night Whisper’s appearance on the ranking was like a bomb that instantly detonated across the entire world. Mahayana Realm.
The mysterious Night Whisper took second place with an entire cultivation realm’s difference over Chu Yunhe.
Almost no one had expected this outcome.
Therefore, many people were shocked to the extreme. Of course, some were happy while others were worried.
The people’s hearts from the various Holy Lands were practically sinking to the bottom, especially for the people from the Primordial Dao Holy Land.
The outcome that they least wanted to see seemed to be happening.
The reality was worse than they had feared.
Night Whisper’s appearance was simply a shot to the head. An entire major cultivation realm! It was simply a despairing difference.
To them, Night Whisper stood above all the geniuses of the Holy Land in a crushing manner and looked down on the world as if to announce how powerful the fiend sect elites were.
“I never expected a fiend sect to have such a monstrous genius!”
“I’m afraid no one can match up to such talent from past to future. This is unbelievable!”
“Hold on, Night Whisper is still only ranked second. Then how ridiculous is the one at the top!?”
“Yeah, could the first place be someone from the Night God Palace too?”
“It’s hard to say at the moment. The Night God Palace has always been secretive. Someone as monstrous as Night Whisper had never appeared in the world before, nor had she been on any previous rankings. Who knows if there are other prodigies hidden in the Night God Palace!”
Of course, compared to the heavy hearts of the various Holy Lands, the members of the Netherworld Cult and the other fiend sects were overjoyed, even though Night Whisper’s appearance had greatly exceeded their expectations.
They were also surprised, but they felt relieved when they saw that the second place was a member of the demonic sects and that she had clinched second place with an overwhelming advantage. “The various Holy Dao Sects have really run out of talent. Looks like this last person might be from the demonic path!”
“Hmm, the Night God Palace might have another trump card!”
“If this last person is from the Night God Palace, that would be quite scary. Two prodigies in the Mahayana Realm. The future of the Night God Palace would be unimaginable!”
“It’s time to pay a visit to Night Soul Lord. That old fellow isn’t simple after all. He actually secretly raised a prodigy like Night Whisper!”
“Yeah, we’ve never heard of Night Whisper. As expected of the Night God Palace, it’s really secretive!”
“Hey, look. The first place is coming up!” Just as countless people were still immersed in the shock brought by Night Whisper, the golden light on the Heavenly Dao Rankings intensified again. Heavenly voices sounded between the heavens and the earth. It was like the whispers of gods, the cries of a hundred beasts, the echo of nature, the chime of a holy bell.
There was also an extravagant scene of rainbow-colored lights and auspicious clouds that filled the sky. It could be said that the special effects were on full display, adding to the posh setting.
“I didn’t expect the first place to receive such treatment!”
“As expected of the top prodigy, it’s way different from the others!” “Therefore, everyone is vying for first place!”
“Looks like the top is a cut above the rest! To have such an amazing scene surfacing on the Heavenly Dao Rankings!”
“Tsk tsk, the effect from the Heavenly Dao Rankings is pretty good!” Among the commotion, the countless strands of golden light slowly condensed into a name that was one font size larger than the others on the rankings-Li Yu.
Human Rankings # 1: Li Yu
Cultivation: Unknown
Origin: Qingyun Sect
Reward: Secret Additional Reward: Secret
“????”
For a moment, the entire world seemed to have fallen silent.
The seven Holy Lands, the five fiend sects, countless sects, clans, and even the various demons were all stunned.
Everyone’s minds were filled with surprise and confusion as they looked at the first place information with perplexed faces. What the hell is unknown cultivation?
What the hell is that secret reward?
And what the hell is that additional secret reward?
Everyone was baffled. In fact, people’s concerns about the struggles between the righteous and demonic paths had already been thrown to the back of everyone’s minds.
They were all thrown off by the word ‘unknown’ as they could not understand it no matter how hard they thought about it. Yet, they were so curious that they could not eat or sleep well without knowing the answer.
No matter how high one’s cultivation was, it should at least have a name for the cultivation realm.
Even if one surpassed the Mahayana Realm, there was still a classification of cultivation realms for immortals.
What did ‘unknown’ mean?
Was it an unidentified power? Or was it an unknown cultivation system?
Or perhaps Heavenly Dao was deliberately modifying the show to whet everyone’s appetite.
Moreover, the rewards for first place were kept a secret. How could it be kept a secret when the previous ones were all announced? Was his reward entirely different from others?
Furthermore, he had an additional reward, but it was kept secret too.
This made people uncomfortable. If the Heavenly Dao did not want anyone to know what the reward was, they might as well not show that segment.
It showed the presence of an additional reward, but it did not reveal what it
was.
This was just like digging a hole and not filling it, like canceling a novel when it reached its climax. Everyone would hate it! a
Thus, everyone in the world was discussing and guessing for a while. Some even thought of deciphering the meaning of the words ‘unknown’ and ‘secret’ of the Heavenly Dao Rankings.
They had already forgotten about Night Whisper, who had just caused a stir.
Coupled with the extraordinary auspicious phenomenon in the heavens and the earth, Li Yu’s name on top seemed particularly dazzling, mysterious, and phenomenal.
Those geniuses on the rankings seemed to be mere mortals compared to Li Yu.
They were all too ordinary as it did not matter what cultivation, background, or monstrous talent they had.
Only number one was the real main character.
