High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 860: Chapter 441: Final Ranking

“Dong Pan actually lost?”

“Dong Pan’s soul will is so powerful, yet he couldn’t resist Xu Yuan’s soul attack?” In the temple, thousands of Flying Heaven Demigods were in an uproar, Semi-Divine Heirs like Yue Shan and He Feng had their expressions condensed to the extreme.

Bai Feng losing was already surprising enough.

But Dong Pan lost as well? It’s known that Dong Pan cultivated and comprehended the Law of Earth and the Mysteries of Space, which combined to make his defense exceptionally formidable; during his challenges in the Divine Fire Tower, his lack of attack power often meant he could only rank between 2nd to 5th.

However, in the recent ranking battles, he had consistently secured the second place, and among the dozen plus Semi-Divine Heirs, only Jing Kui could break his defense with his absolute speed.

In this clash with Li Yuan, Dong Pan was not the slightest bit negligent; he had prepared early to withstand soul attacks.

Yet he still lost?

If Dong Pan lost, how many of the Semi-Divine Heirs could win against Li Yuan?

“Impressive!”

“Even Dong Pan was caught off guard? Before Jing Kui’s breakthrough, Dong Pan’s Law Comprehension was always higher, yet he still lost to Li Yuan?” The seven Demigods on the high platform were quite astonished.

Dong Pan Semi-Divine is only at the Seven Star Veins, so why did he always firmly hold the second place on the Semi-Divine List? It’s because of his extraordinary Law Comprehension.

And with higher Law Comprehension, influenced by the Origin of the Great Dao, the soul will also tends to be extremely powerful.

Before the battle, these True Gods had believed that the probability of victory would be greater for Semi-Divine Dong Pan.

“It seems that Xu Yuan’s soul attack method is stronger than we imagined,” commented Yue Wing True God in a deep voice.

“If Dong Pan has been defeated, it’s even harder for others to resist; probably only Jing Kui has hope to withstand it.”

“Hmm, let’s see if Jing Kui can withstand it.” This became the consensus among the seven True Gods.

…

Defeating Dong Pan made Li Yuan unrivalled in the second group, swiftly winning the subsequent fights.

Unbeaten! 99 Points!

With an absolute advantage, he became the first ranked in the second group, and smoothly secured the first spot among the top twenty of the Semi-Divine List.

After losing to Li Yuan, Dong Pan Semi-Divine quickly adjusted and won all the following battles, scoring 98 points and claiming the second place of the group.

Bai Feng ultimately seized the third place.

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! The hundred combatants of the second group ended their battles more quickly than others, all returning to the ground of the grand hall.

Almost everyone’s gaze was focused on Li Yuan.

Defeating Semi-Divine Heirs Bai Feng and Dong Pan consecutively, his strength was undoubtedly respected by all Flying Heaven Demigods.

“Xu Yuan.”

“Haha, congratulations!” Yue Shan and Yang Di both greeted Li Yuan with smiles.

Like Yue Shan, even though they might face Li Yuan later on, possibly becoming adversaries, he still felt happy for Li Yuan’s achievements.

“Xu Yuan.”

A deep voice suddenly rang out, closely followed by Bai Feng already walking up to Li Yuan, speaking softly, “I lost the wager this time, here are ten thousand Divine Crystals for you to take.”

Whoosh! With a wave of his hand, a Storage Treasure flew towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan stretched out his hand to catch it, and a sweep of Divine Thought confirmed the ten thousand Divine Crystals inside.

All correct.

“Hmm.” Li Yuan nodded slightly, watching as Semi-Divine Bai Feng merged into the crowd.

Since the opponent conceded the wager gracefully, Li Yuan naturally wouldn’t speak mockingly.

“Tsk tsk, this guy.” Yang Di communicated with a chuckle, “Every time he competed with Yue Shan before, even if he often lost, he would never give in, always claiming he would take it back next time. This time, he actually conceded so promptly and cleanly.”

“That’s because brother Xu Yuan is strong enough,” Yue Shan said with emotion, “My strength is not much different from Bai Feng’s, and I’ve cultivated for even longer; it’s normal for Bai Feng to be unconvinced… But how long has brother Xu Yuan been cultivating? To defeat him and Dong Pan directly the first time… he will only gap him more in the future.”

“Don’t mention Bai Feng.”

“Even Jing Kui, I think, is far from brother Xu Yuan,” Yue Shan said with a smile.

“You flatter me,” Li Yuan replied, shaking his head.

…

Shortly after the second group’s battles ended, the first group’s battles also came to an end.

Jing Kui also smoothly scored 99 points, securing first place.

He quickly learned the results of the second group.

“Dong Pan lost?”

“Xu Yuan won? First in the second group?” Jing Kui, who was always calm, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, “Employed a soul attack? Even Dong Pan couldn’t resist at all?”

As his biggest competitor, Jing Kui was very clear about Dong Pan Semi-Divine’s strength.

Even now that he had a breakthrough in power, defeating Dong Pan swiftly would be difficult; it would still take at least a dozen moves at the least.

“Jing Kui, you need to be careful,” Dong Pan communicated with a cold voice, “While your soul will is stronger than mine, Xu Yuan’s soul attack is terrifying… Among the powerful Pseudo-Gods I’ve seen, hardly a few have soul attacks that could match his.”

“Don’t capsize in the gutter; otherwise, we, the old-timers, would lose too much face,” Dong Pan said.

“Hmm.”

“I will naturally be cautious,” Jing Kui said with a smile, a serious expression also flashed across his eyes.

For the first time, he regarded Li Yuan as an opponent who could contend with him.

…

As time elapsed, group by group of combatants entered the Void Arena, and the final rankings were decided.

Over a day and a half, the top two, top ten, and top thirty of each group were decided in turn.

It also meant that the top twenty of the Semi-Divine List were solidified.

Semi-Divine Heirs like Jing Kui, Dong Pan, He Feng, Yue Shan, and others all entered the top twenty.

Only two were eliminated.

One was Bai Feng, and the other was Yang You Semi-Divine, who ranked thirteenth on the previous Semi-Divine List.

She was in the tenth group with Yue Shan.

However, neither of them managed to claim the top spot in their group; instead, they both lost to another Reserve Member—Xia Ju!
