"Not bad."
One of the Soaring Cloud Sect's elders looked at the many disciples and nodded slightly, "To be able to survive the endless pursuit of the demons, it seems that you have indeed put in a lot of effort. Well done, your cultivation has not been in vain."
He knew how terrifying it was to be chased by all the demons in the Demonic Continent. Even he might not be able to survive. It was a hopeless situation.
But Meng Yunxiao and the others survived. It was indeed an amazing thing.
Hearing this, Meng Yunxiao and the rest blushed and did not dare to speak. They were only able to survive because of Xia Ping's help. Without Xia Ping's help, they would have been killed by the hundreds of thousands of fiendish demons. They would not be standing here.
But this was very embarrassing. How could they say it out loud?
"Hua Yang, how are your injuries?"
The elder looked at Hua Yang with concern. After all, he was the pride of the Five Elements Sect.
Hua Yang immediately said, "Thank you, elder. It's not a big deal. I just need to rest for a few months and I will recover."
"Mmm, you did well this time."
The elder praised, "To be able to get more than ten thousand points, it seems that you killed at least ten thousand demons. This result is one of the best in the past."
"No, no, no. Elder, only ten thousand points. Compared to Brother Xia, it's too far. It's not worth mentioning."
Hua Yang waved his hand. He was very ashamed.
The reason why he could kill ten thousand demons was purely because he wanted to kill them. When Xia Ping beat the demons half to death, he would go and finish them off.
Unknowingly, he killed ten thousand demons. This was all because of Xia Ping.
Therefore, facing the elder's praise, he felt very sullen. It was as if he cheated and felt ashamed.
"Hmph, don't speak for that kid. That Xia Ping definitely cheated to get so many points. More than fifty million points, this is too exaggerated. Could it be that he killed more than fifty million demons?!"
The elder sneered. He still thought that Xia Ping had mastered some special cheating technique. Otherwise, how could the Heaven and Earth Sect disciples' results be so exaggerated?
Moreover, a Treasure Refining Realm cultivator killing more than 50 million demons was simply a fantasy. Even if they just stood there and let the kid kill them, he wouldn't be able to kill them all in a few days.
Hua Yang and the others didn't dare to refute the Elder's words, but they knew deep down that it wasn't cheating. It was all because of Xia Ping's Vermilion Bird Trigram Fire Formation that covered thousands of miles that they were able to kill 50 million demons.
This was all happening in front of their eyes, how could it be cheating?!
However, they did not say it out loud. After all, the more powerful Xia Ping was, the more incompetent he would be. They were not willing to do such a shameful thing, so it was better for the elders to misunderstand.
"Anchang, although you are injured, your cultivation has improved greatly. You have also saved many of your fellow disciples. You have contributed greatly." The Gui Yuan Sect Elder praised Shi Anchang.
"No, no, no. I really didn't do anything."
Shi Anchang shook his head repeatedly. The reason why his senior and junior brothers were still alive was because of Xia Ping's help. Otherwise, not only his senior and junior brothers, but even he himself would have become food for the demons.
"Well, you can do it. It seems that you have made great progress this time. Now you know how to be humble. Your future achievements will be extraordinary." The Gui Yuan Sect Elder was very satisfied. In the beginning, Shi Anchang was very arrogant. When he walked, he used his head to look at others. Now, he was actually so humble, saying that he didn't do anything. The improvement of one's temperament was sometimes greater than the improvement of one's cultivation.
After all, aptitude could determine a person's starting point, but temperament determined a person's final achievement. Those who were arrogant and had their eyes on the top of their head would not go far.
Shi Anchang was sullen. This time, the Demon Continent's experience had indeed brought him a great lesson. The combat power that he was proud of was not worth mentioning in front of those ferocious demons.
However, that Xia Ping was extremely terrifying. He killed demons like slaughtering pigs and dogs. His little life was also saved by Xia Ping. With such a comparison, how could he still be arrogant? He was defeated miserably.
And this matter also completely let him know what it meant by there is always someone better than you. His own ability was nothing at all.
So, this wasn't being humble at all. It was the truth. However, no one would believe it even if he said it.
"Po Wang, what crafty tricks did that brat Xia Ping use to actually obtain more than 50 million points? Did you see anything fishy?" The Flying Celestial Sect Elder asked, looking at Li Po Wang.
He wanted to find clues of Heaven and Earth Sect's cheating and properly criticize them.
"Elder, there is nothing fishy about it. Brother Xia won first place, I wholeheartedly accept it."
Li Po Wang shook his head.
"What?!"
The Flying Celestial Sect Elder was a little surprised. "When did your relationship with that brat become so good? You are actually speaking up for him? "
Good my ass!
Li Po Wang gritted his teeth in anger.
Thinking of what had happened before, he was infuriated. Although he was happy that Xia Ping had saved him and the others, the problem was that this fellow was a bloodsucker. He had extorted twenty ten-thousand-year-old spirit herbs from them and forced them to sign an unfair contract.
Moreover, if they couldn't pay these ten thousand years old spirit herbs within ten days, they would even collect interest. This bastard was simply a loan shark and extorted him.
How could he be friends with such a person?
However, this matter was truly too embarrassing. He couldn't say it out loud. If he did, they would most probably become the laughing stock of countless people. He wanted nothing more than to bury this matter in the depths of darkness.
BOOM ~
At this moment, the Heavenly Fate Rankings trembled, emitting a boundless golden light that illuminated the world. Countless disciples and elders present all raised their heads and looked at the rankings in the air.
Instantly, a loud voice rang out. "The tempering exercise this time has ended. Although the time was brought forward, the results of the tempering exercise are still valid. Xia Ping of the Qiankun Sect obtained first place this time with a total of 57.879,657 points, surpassing the previous number one."
What?!
All the elders were shocked. They originally thought that the tempering exercise this time was invalid. They didn't expect that the Heavenly Fate Rankings would still be valid. Before they could stop it …
In the depths of the Heavenly Fate Rankings, a spatial tunnel opened up. Immediately, three drops of crystalline liquid dripped down from the sky.
Although it was only three drops of liquid, each drop of liquid was incomparably mysterious. It was like a jade talisman, exuding a boundless aura of nobility.
In the depths of the liquid, densely packed talisman inscriptions appeared. Each talisman had a different shape. They were like divine birds, dragons, snakes, tortoises, mountains, flames, water droplets …
Contained within them was a high-level energy that simply couldn't be compared to the spiritual liquid.
"My heavens, this is actually Emperor Essence!"
