There were only a hundred people on the list, but there were too many half-step Holy Emperors in the Immortal World. Therefore, it was extremely difficult to get on the list. The list didn't only look at one's cultivation, it also looked at one's potential to become a Holy Emperor. If one was only a thirty-sixth level half-step Holy Emperor, but had great potential to become a Holy Emperor, then it was very possible for them to get on the list.
It was said that the list was issued by the Jade Emperor. Naturally, the people on the list were very famous in the Immortal World. They were very likely to become Holy Emperors. Therefore, the people of the Immortal World approved of the list. After all, they couldn't guess the methods of the Holy Emperors. If the Holy Emperors thought that someone had the potential to become a Holy Emperor, then that person had great potential.
Therefore, the people in the Immortal Realm were fighting each other to get on the list. Unfortunately, there were only one hundred people on the list, so it was very difficult to get on the list. There were only two ways to get on the list. One was to have outstanding strength and unparalleled talent. That way, you would have a chance to get on the list. The other way was to defeat the people on the list. Then, you would have a chance to get on the list.
Because of this, those cultivators who had great talent but were still in a very weak realm didn't want to be on the list. If they were on the list, being challenged and defeated was a small matter. However, if they died because of this, it would affect their cultivation. That was a big matter.
However, the list was published by the Jade Emperor, and it was based on the Jade Emperor's prediction. Naturally, it wouldn't change because of the will of those who didn't want to be on the list. Therefore, every time the list was published, those who were weak but had great aptitude would immediately go into hiding. They would only come out after they had cultivated to a higher level.
Of course, even if they hid at the ends of the world, they would still be found. In this case, those cultivators were naturally unlucky. Some people who wanted to be on the list would kill those who had great potential just for themselves. Although it sounded very unfair and the Jade Emperor shouldn't do this, the Immortal World was merciless.
If you had the talent to be on the list, then you should have the means and strength to protect your life. Otherwise, how could you become a Holy Emperor if you couldn't even withstand such a small test? Therefore, the appearance of the list encouraged those who had the chance to be on the list to work harder and strive to become a Holy Emperor as soon as possible.
Qin Shaofeng followed the Fighting Immortal Buddha towards the South Heaven Gate. This gate was the only entrance for the Upper Nine Heavens, Lower Nine Heavens, Middle Eighteen Heavens and the four great continents of the Immortal Realm to enter the Heavenly Court. From afar, Qin Shaofeng saw a huge Heaven Gate. At the gate stood four tall but extremely ugly Heaven Generals. They were the four Heavenly Kings who guarded the Southern Heaven Gate. They were all 25th Rank Half-Step Holy Emperors and were considered top figures in the Heavenly Court.
The four Heavenly Kings guarded the Southern Heavenly Gate, and above the gate, there was a huge flower tower with a three-clawed coiling dragon. At this moment, the three-clawed coiling dragon was holding a huge God List, hanging down from the top of the flower tower, all the way to the ground. The God List was shining with golden light, and there were a hundred names on it. It was the Hidden Emperor God List that flew over earlier.
Qin Shaofeng followed the Fighting Immortal Buddha to the Southern Heaven Gate. The four Heavenly Kings all smiled when they saw the Fighting Immortal Buddha. Among them, Dhrtarastra Mo Li Shou bowed to the Fighting Immortal Buddha and said, "Great Sage Sun, how come you have time to come to the Heavenly Court?" Of course, Dhrtarastra Mo Li Shou was thinking, "Why are you here again?"
The Fighting Immortal Buddha only glanced at Dhrtarastra Mo Li Shou and said, "Nothing, I just saw the Hidden Emperor List flying over so I came to take a look. Don't worry, I'll leave after seeing it. I won't enter the Heavenly Court." The four Heavenly Kings heaved a sigh of relief when they heard the Fighting Immortal Buddha's words. They were waiting for the Fighting Immortal Buddha to say this.
The four Heavenly Kings were relieved after hearing the Fighting Immortal Buddha's words. They followed the Fighting Immortal Buddha to the huge flower. They also wanted to see their own rankings. The four Heavenly Kings were also on the list but they were at the bottom. Of course, everyone was ambitious. Although they knew that they were at the bottom, they still wanted to see if their rankings had risen this time.
Qin Shaofeng followed the Fighting Immortal Buddha to the huge flower. Because Qin Shaofeng came with the Fighting Immortal Buddha, the four Heavenly Kings only glanced at Qin Shaofeng and ignored him. When they arrived before the Hidden Emperor List, Qin Shaofeng looked up and saw a name at the top. It was Zhen Yuanzi.
Qin Shaofeng was very familiar with this name because this person's name was known everywhere in the four continents of the Immortal Realm. Zhen Yuanzi was the Ancestor of Earthly Immortals. His Dao Sect was located in the Fifth Manor of the Longevity Mountain in the Aparagodānīya Continent. His cultivation base was unparalleled and he was known as the number one person below the Saint Emperor.
"Brother Zhen Yuanzi is still at the top. It seems like he's still the most likely to become a Saint Emperor." The Fighting Immortal Buddha looked at Zhen Yuanzi's name and sighed. Ever since the Hidden Emperor List was created, Zhen Yuanzi's name had always been at the top. This meant that Zhen Yuanzi was the most likely to become a Saint Emperor.
The second name was Buddha Gautama. Qin Shaofeng was very familiar with this name because this person was the Lord of Sacred Mountain in the Aparagodānīya Continent. He was also the Buddha of Hinayana Buddhism. His strength was unfathomable. When the Fighting Immortal Buddha wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, it was Buddha Gautama who suppressed him with one palm strike. Since Buddha Gautama was at the second place, it meant that he had a great chance to become a Saint Emperor.
The third place was also from the Hinayana Buddhism. His name was Dipankara Buddha. Dipankara Buddha was one of the three great Buddhas of the Hinayana Buddhism. His strength was also earth-shattering. He was ranked at the third place, which showed how great his potential was. The fourth place was still Maitreya Buddha. He was the future Buddha of the Hinayana Buddhism. He also had great strength and great potential to become a Saint Emperor.
From the second to the fourth place, they were all occupied by the Buddhist League. It was obvious how powerful and lucky the Buddhist League was. Next, the fifth place was occupied by Nether Hierarch. Qin Shaofeng was naturally very familiar with this person. If it wasn't for Nether Hierarch's interference, he would have been able to kill Qin Shaoyang.
Qin Shaofeng still remembered what happened when Netherworld Hierarch made his move. But, he didn't think that Netherworld Hierarch could only be ranked at the fifth place. If that were the case, how powerful were the other four people in front of him? Qin Shaofeng wanted to know very much. He was also very envious. He looked forward to the day when he could have such power and influence.
The sixth name was Ancestor Kun Peng. He was an ancient great demon that had roamed the Immortal World for countless years. He was also an extremely powerful existence. Because Ancestor Kun Peng was from the demon race, he was extremely ferocious and ruthless. He was a ferocious person and very few people were willing to come into contact with him.
The seventh, eighth, and ninth place were Heavenly Emperor Fuxi, Earthly Emperor Shennong, and Human Emperor Xuan Yuan. These were the three ancient emperors. Each of them had great merit for educating the human race. At the same time, each of them had great talent and great strength. They all had the potential to become Saint Emperors. This potential was extremely great because those who could enter the top ten were all peerless figures.
The tenth place was naturally the Fighting Immortal Buddha. Compared to the previous nine, his cultivation base was much weaker. This was because he was only a Tenth Stage Half-Step Saint Emperor. However, the previous nine were all First Stage Half-Step Saint Emperors. Some of them were even at the peak of First Stage Half-Step Saint Emperors. However, the Fighting Immortal Buddha was able to occupy the tenth place because of his talent. After all, he was born from the Five-Colored Stone and was stained with the blood of Empress Wa. His talent was unparalleled.
Seeing that he was still in the tenth place, the Fighting Immortal Buddha was naturally very happy. He looked at the Hidden Emperor Divine List and said, "Sigh, I am in the tenth place again. When will I be able to improve?" The Immortal Fighting Buddha was also a competitive person. He was unwilling to be ranked tenth. However, the Immortal Fighting Buddha also understood that the ten people ranked ahead of him were all unparalleled experts. There was no way he could compare to them.
Qin Shaofeng looked at the top ten people in the Hidden Emperor Divine List. Each of them was a hero of a region. Naturally, he was very envious. However, he was only a Twenty-Eighth Stage Half-Step Saint Emperor. Compared to these people, there was a huge gap. Therefore, Qin Shaofeng did not expect to be on the list. He just remembered these names so that he could be more careful if he encountered them in the future.
The top ten people were all First Stage Half-Step Saint Emperors. Some of them were even at the peak of First Stage Half-Step Saint Emperors. Only the Fighting Immortal Buddha was a Tenth Stage Half-Step Saint Emperor. However, behind the Fighting Immortal Buddha, there were many powerful people between Ninth Stage and Second Stage Half-Step Saint Emperor. However, why did they not challenge the Fighting Immortal Buddha and snatch his position?
This was because the Fighting Immortal Buddha had a powerful background. Not only did he have Empress Wa as his backer, he also had Shi Huang and Pu Huang's favor. In this case, three of the Six Great Saint Emperors were protecting the Fighting Immortal Buddha. Who would dare to be presumptuous?
