Against The Gods
Chapter 205 – Tournament Rankings: Profound Strength Assessment
“Now, let this old man announce the prize of this Ranking Tournament.”
Ling Wugou's words, made everyone focus their gaze back on him and listen earnestly. The prizes for each ranking tournament are different. They only heard Ling Wugou read: “Third place in the individual ranking of the ranking tournament, will receive one ‘Purple Striped Dragon Heart Pellet’. Second place in individual rating, will receive three drops ‘Purple Veined Marrow Quenching Fluid’ …. “
As Ling Wugou had said until here, the audience below was already filled with shouts of shock. Name “Purple Striped Dragon Heart Pellet” and “Purple Veined Marrow Quenching Fluid”, like the thunder that hits the eardrum of everyone present. Because, all of these were god medicines that were hard to come by even with incredible wealth. The first one was rumored to be made by refining the power of the True Dragon Profound Core and could let the Profound Entrance of those who ate it be opened for the next month, increasing their cultivation speed by several times! Lastly, it could repair one's bone marrow and brain, increasing their physical and mental prowess in a broad way, allowing one to obtain permanent benefits. Both of these drugs are equally famous and valuable, and it is almost impossible to buy them no matter how big the amount of money it has. Especially for the younger generation, “Purple Striped Dragon Heart Pellet” and “Purple Veined Marrow Quenching Fluid” “ really and truly miracle medicines.
All the participating disciples were present, including the disciples from the top sects who were already staring with stiff eyes, as a gasping sound rang out from their throats.
However, the conditions for obtaining one of these two types of medicine were extremely harsh..Riding up to the top three among the top fifteen hundred talents, was really more difficult than trying to climb up to the heavens.
“... The first place in the individual rankings, will receive the Sky Profound Artifact, the Dragonscale Armor, which comes from the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region.”
“WHOAA”
As soon as the prize for first place was announced, the entire audience immediately shouted as if hot oil in a pot, and could not remain silent for a long time.
Sky Profound Artifact... Dragonscale Armor !!
“As expected of Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, this is truly a hand show that makes it difficult to stay calm even if someone wants it.” Sect Master Xiao, Xiao Juetian said with a face full of shock: “I have heard this Dragonscale Armor was made with dragon scales from actual dragons. While being extremely difficult, it also has a number of reflective properties to the profound energy. With the Dragonscale Armor in hand, this was comparable to having one .. no, a few more lives! Lei’er, this time, you really have to expend one hundred and twenty percent effort. For this Dragonscale Armor, you should try your best even if it's Ling Yun you're facing, and don't make mistakes in the first place. “
“Ya!” Xiao Kuanglei forcibly nodded his head in response.
“There are only three protective armors from the Sky Profound ranks throughout Blue Wind Empire. Moreover, none of them could match this Dragonscale Armor. “Burning Heaven Clan, Elder Fen Moli also could no longer remain calm. However, he was nothing like Xiao Juetian, and his expression quickly became unclear again: “It is a pity, this Dragonscale Armor is only used to dazzle our eyes. With Ling Yun here, who could win against him? From what I see here, this is probably the great gift Ling Kun gave from Mighty Heavenly Sword Region as a means to incite our eyeballs while taking advantage of this situation. In the end, it was still theirs. “
Ling Wugou's statement continues: “Ten top powers in the ranking tournament, after the tournament, will be qualified to explore ‘Heaven Basin Secret Realm’ in the team.”
“Big ten powers in ranking tournament, after exploration ‘Heavenly Basin Secret Realm’, will have the opportunity to see the ‘Demon’ Sealing Ritual personally performed by Elder Ling Kun of Mighty Heavenly Sword Region with their own eyes. . “
“Demon Sealing Rituals? Whatisit? “Ask Yun Che confusedly asked Qin Wushang.
Qin Wushang thought for a moment, and said, “I'm not sure either. Calculating this time, I've been here three times at all, yet I've never heard of this kind of ‘gift’. But said “Demon”, which I've heard. It was rumored that a hundred years ago, Mighty Heavenly Sword Region had sent ‘Demon’ to Heavenly Sword Villa, and sealed it under Sword Management Terrace. The giant sword in the center of Sword Management Terrace is there precisely to seal the ‘Demon’. Perhaps this seal needed to be strengthened once in a while, or perhaps the reason why this Ling Kun came to the Heavenly Sword Villa was not to witness this Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, but to strengthen the seal, it's just a guess. “
The matter of Heavenly Sword Villa having ‘demon’ sent here by Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, Yun Che had heard Cang Yue mention it arbitrarily before as he introduced the Heavenly Sword Villa to him. His gaze swept across the surroundings, and found that most people were whispering to each other with confused expressions .. Clearly they all did not know what “Demon Sealing Ritual” was called.
“The time has arrived. Now, this old man declared; this Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, has officially begun! “
The Sword Discourse Arena immediately became desolate. One could only see Ling Wugou's figure wavering; she had already flown into the air. Leaving behind a hazy gray line, he landed at the center of the Sword Discourse Arena in the blink of an eye. There, the Profound Assessing Stone was already standing in place.
“Tournament of this rank, had a total of five hundred and thirteen sectoral powers to classify, and involved one thousand five hundred and thirty-five participating disciples. The age of each participating student should not be younger than sixteen, and should not be more than twenty years old. Anyone who is not in this age range will soon be expelled. Now start the Tournament Ranking draw. Before the number is drawn, one must be tested for age and profound strength and then let everyone know the names of the younger generation of individuals as well, the participating disciples were summoned by this old man, coming immediately for the profound.” strength assessment
In every ranking tournament session, the assessment of profound strength was always an essential process. But this truly tested profound strength assessment was not his strength, but rather his age. After all, ranked tournaments had very strict restrictions on the age of the participating disciples.
“Skyblade Clan, Li Badao, Ji Hong, Ye Changqing!”
The three whose names were called Ling Wugou immediately got off the seat, and placed their palms on the Profound Assessing Stone one by one. The resulting ages were 19, 20, and 20 respectively; each of the profound power ranks were Level two Spirit Profound, Level two Spirit Profound, and Level two Spirit Profound. After which, they took out their respective Tournament Ranking numbers on the side, and returned to their seats.
“Thunderbolt Mountain, Wu Mu, Wu Feiran, Wu Qingyun!”
“Skyriver Cloud Pavilion ...”
“Moon Worshiping Sect ..”
“Divine Cloud Isle ..”
…
Wave after wave of participating disciples, with the sect as a unit, appeared and performed a power assessment. Just like the previous session, most of the participating ages of disciples were all grouped at the ages of 19 and 20. 18-year-olds are very rare, and 17 are very different. For sixteen ... Almost half of his disciples had already ascended, but still there was not a single one.
More than that, over ninety percent of these participating students, had power centered between the first level of Spirit Profound and the fifth level of Spirit Profound. People who surpassed the fifth level of Spirit did not even reach a tenth. To be able to enter the Spirit Profound under the age of twenty, even if it was in the Imperial Capital, that person would be considered a genius in genius. Even for Blue Wind Profound Palace, there were only three people, including Fen Juechen. For small towns like Floating Cloud and New Moon, one did not even dare to imagine it. But here, it could only be reduced to ordinary. And for young practitioners of the fifth level of Spirit Profound and above, they would be a miracle blessed by the heavens within a miracle blessed by the heavens, he said, and also the top-tier groups of the ranking tournaments.
“Secte Xiao, Xiao Kuanglei, Xiao Zhen, Xiao Nan.”
As soon as the name “Sekte Xiao” was announced, the entire audience suddenly fell silent again. The Four Great Sects who were making awe in Blue Wind Empire, finally started entering the stage!
The three participating Xiao Sect disciples walked out of the seating area, and walked towards the center of the Sword Discourse Arena side by side. Even the way they walked was different from the other sect disciples. Between their eyebrows, there was overgrown with an overbearing air that almost seemed natural.
Xiao Kuanglei, 20 years old, Level nine Spirit Profound.
Xiao Kuanglei was the first to take the power assessment. As a result, a burst of exclamations rang out from below the stage. Especially the disciples who were usually arrogant and referred to as “Kemirak” in their own area; their eyes were wide-eyed and sagging, and could not believe their own eyes.
‘At the age of twenty, he was actually at the ninth level of the Spirit Profound and was only two steps into the Earth Profound, how could this be’, was what they cried out in their trembling hearts.
The cry that sounded beside the ears made Xiao Zhen emit a cold snort, as he stepped forward and pressed his hand against the Profound Assessing Stone.
Xiao Zhen, 20 years old, level nine Spirit Profound.
This time, the young disciples who were already wide-eyed and astonished saw their eyes even wider. They had just heard the name of the Four Great Sects amazingly with their ears before; yet this time, they had used their eyes, and had actually witnessed the Four Great Sects.
The last Xiao Nan.
Xiao Nan, 18 years old, Level six Spirit Profound.
Although Xiao Nan's strength was the bottom of the three, he became two years younger than Xiao Kuanglei and Xiao Zhen. This age coupled with this level of strength, his shock factor was in no way weaker than the previous two.
Not too long later, three Burning Heaven Clan disciples also rose onto the stage at the same time.
Fen Jin, 20 years old, level nine Spirit Profound.
Fen Juebi, 20 years old, level eight Spirit Profound.
Fen Yuange, 19 years old, level seven Spirit Profound.
“Fen Jin is the eldest grandson of the Great Elder of the Burning Heaven Clan-Fen Moli, and is also the number one disciple of the Burning Heaven Clan in this tournament. As for Feng Juebi, his abilities were inferior to Fen Juechen, and could not be the number one main character for the Burning Heaven Clan in this Ranking Tournament. “Qin Wushang explains exactly.
“Frozen Cloud Asgard, Shui Wushuang, Wu Xuexin, Xia Qingyue.”
Among the Four Major Sects, Frozen Cloud Asgard had the lowest number of disciples. Because when Frozen Cloud Asgard chose their disciples, not only were they limited to women, they also had extremely strict talent and appearance requirements. And hence, if one were to talk about the strength of an average disciple, even the Heavenly Sword Villa could not match Frozen Cloud Asgard. At the same time, every disciple of Frozen Cloud Asgard was as beautiful as a blossoming flower; the number one beauty of “Chu Yuechan” that had made many young and talented men infatuated, the, it comes from Frozen Cloud Asgard.
As expected, when the three ladies of Frozen Cloud Asgard came out, the entire surrounding region was immediately filled with constant echoes. The young disciples who had the ability to get to this place had established themselves as the peak of their territory, so it could be said that they had all kinds of beautiful women they wanted. But how could ordinary women compare to the quality of Frozen Cloud Asgard's female disciples. They have natural ice auroras floating around them thus increasing their atmosphere even further. The face of the last young lady was covered by the hijab so there was no way to see her true face. The gazes of the young disciples all focused on the beautiful faces and figures of Shui Wushuang and Wu Xuexin, staring for so long that their wide eyes almost became vertical, it was as if their spirits had left their bodies.
“Sister-in-law, fast, look! It's brother!! “
Although Xia Qingyue was wearing a headscarf, Xia Yuanba still recognized her at a glance. He immediately grabbed onto Yun Che's arm as he shouted excitedly.
“Shh ..” Yun Che quickly silenced her and said in a low voice, “I know that she is Qingyue and I already know that she will participate in this ranked tournament … You can call me Sister-in-law, but you can't call her Brother anymore. Frozen Cloud Asgard's female students are banned from marriage. If someone else heard about something, it would hurt him. We will also receive unnecessary attention. “
Xia Yuanba immediately covered his mouth with both hands, nodded repeatedly, and did not dare to shout loudly.
Yun Che's gaze fell on Xia Qingyue's back as her heart was pounding.It has been a year and a half since the last time she saw him and he has clearly grown taller. The graceful and beautiful refined body had become even more beautiful. Looking at her from behind was enough to imagine what peerless beauty would look like …
“The girl wearing the hijab .. is .. Yuanba's older sister ... your wife?” The others did not hear what Yuanba said, but Cang Yue sitting next to them heard it clearly. She looked at Xia Qingyue with a somewhat blank expression on her face .. Upon seeing her lover's wife, her voice and expression revealed an indescribable emotion.
Regardless of whether they have real feelings for each other, regardless of whether they are really husband and wife .. He is still his wife, paying homage to heaven and earth, paying homage to their parents, with Heaven and earth as witnesses …
