"Yes."
Han Zheng Tian nodded. "The Rising Sky Ranking is an extremely valuable ranking in the Rising Sky Mansion's district. Only Martial and Dao Cultivators below the age of fifty are allowed to participate in it. Due to this reason, each person only has one chance to participate in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle in their lifetime.
There are only ten people in the Rising Sky Ranking. These ten people's rankings will be decided during the Ranking Battle. They've been around for fifty years. Due to this reason, the Rising Sky Ranking is a very meaningful ranking in the Rising Sky Mansion. "
Han Zheng Tian continued to explain.
Duan Lingtian finally understood.
After listening to Han Zheng Tian's explanation, he had a certain understanding of the Rising Sky Ranking.
At the same time, he knew being able to be listed in the Rising Sky Ranking was a very honorable thing in the Rising Sky Mansion's district.
"It's precisely because the Rising Sky Ranking represents the elites of the Rising Sky Mansion that even the fourth-rate force, the Rising Sky Mansion, values the Rising Sky Ranking a lot. Moreover, the Rising Sky Mansion has set a rule many years ago that only Rising Sky Mansion's disciples who have been listed in the Rising Sky Ranking are qualified to participate in the election for the next Mansion Master."
Han Zheng Tian said, "The Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion in this area wants to pass the position of Mansion Master to his son, the Young Mansion Master. Due to this reason, the Young Mansion Master must be ranked in the top ten of the Rising Sky Ranking. Otherwise, he's destined to miss out on the position of Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion.
However, although the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion is a good-for-nothing playboy who likes to play with women, one must admit that he's a genius in the Martial Dao! Although it'll be difficult for him to rank first in the Rising Sky Ranking, with his strength, it shouldn't be a problem for him to rank in the top three, "Han Zheng Tian said.
Han Zheng Tian continued to say.
"Uncle Han, why did you suddenly mention the Rising Sky Ranking to me? Don't tell me the battle in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle doesn't involve life and death?"
Duan Lingtian asked bluntly with a glint in his eyes.
He believed that Han Zheng Tian would not mention the Rising Sky Ranking for no reason, especially when he had asked Han Zheng Tian if there was any other way to help Xue Nai resolve this calamity without implicating the Greenwave Han Mansion.
"That's right."
Han Zheng Tian nodded. "The battle for the Rising Sky Ranking doesn't involve life and death. This is a rule that has been passed down since ancient times in the Rising Sky Mansion's district. The reason such a rule was set up is to allow the middle-aged people in the Rising Sky Mansion to fight with all their might.
"In that case, as long as someone can kill the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, the Rising Sky Mansion won't be implicated in the Greenwave Han Mansion? Then, the marriage between the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion and Xue Nai will also come to an end? "
Duan Lingtian's eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's right."
Han Zheng Tian nodded again before a bitter expression appeared on his face. "However, even if there are one or two people who are stronger than the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion, they'll definitely not kill them out of respect for the Rising Sky Mansion. As for the others, they might not be a match for the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion. "
Due to this reason, he did not think the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion would be killed during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle.
The reason he mentioned the Rising Sky Ranking Battle was to convince Duan Lingtian that apart from killing the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, there was no other way to save his daughter from the sea of fire.
"Uncle Han, do you know how strong the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion is?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Refined Saint Stage."
Han Zheng Tian said solemnly, "A few years ago, I heard he had broken through to the Refined Saint Stage. Now that the Rising Sky Ranking Battle is about to begin, the Rising Sky Mansion will definitely provide him with the best cultivation resources. For this reason, it's not impossible for him to break through to the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage during the Void Crush Sect's ranking battle. "
"Intermediate Refined Saint Stage?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow.
As far as he knew, even in a sixth-rate force, the strongest person was only at the Refined Saint Stage.
A Young Master of a fourth-rate force who was not even fifty years old had already broken through to the Refined Saint Stage?
At this moment, Duan Lingtian finally realized how terrifying a fourth-rate force was.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have said he'd be able to enter the top three during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle."
Han Zheng Tian smiled wryly.
"Uncle Han, apart from the age restriction, are there any other requirements to participate in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle? Can people who are not from the Rising Sky Mansion's district participate? "
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Theoretically, as long as one is below the age of fifty, anyone can participate. Naturally, people who are not from the Rising Sky Mansion's district won't participate in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle. This is because every fourth-rate force has a similar ranking battle that is held once every fifty years. The only difference is that the time is different. "
Duan Lingtian nodded.
Duan Ling Tian nodded, and a strand of an imperceptible bright light flashed deep within his eyes.
"Uncle Han, do you trust me?"
Duan Lingtian asked suddenly as he raised his head to look at Han Zheng Tian.
Han Zheng Tian was stunned. He did not know why Duan Lingtian would ask such a question. However, under Duan Lingtian's gaze, he nodded. "Although this is my first time meeting you, I've heard about you more than once from Xue Nai. I know you're a trustworthy person so I trust you."
"Thank you, Uncle Han."
Duan Lingtian thanked him and said, "Uncle Han, after I came to the Dao Martial Saint Land, I made a friend. He's not much older than me, but his strength is much higher than mine. When I first met him a few years ago, he was already at the peak of the Pristine Saint Stage.
Currently, he must have broken through to the Refined Saint Stage! "
Duan Lingtian said with a burning gaze, "I plan to look for him and ask him to kill the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle!"
Boom!
Duan Lingtian's words were like a bolt from the blue. It stunned Han Zheng Tian.
This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise to him.
"Are you confident?"
Just as he had said earlier, he did not doubt Duan Lingtian's words at all. However, he was more concerned about whether Duan Lingtian's friend was stronger than the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion or not.
"Uncle Han, he's only a few months older than me. After a few years, he must have broken through to the Refined Saint Stage. It's not impossible for him to break through to the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage or the Mastery Refined Saint Stage."
Duan Lingtian nodded confidently.
His words caused Han Zheng Tian's eyes to brighten immediately. He felt there was a chance.
To be honest, although he had made up his mind to kill the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, he had no other choice.
If there was a way to solve his daughter's problem without involving the Greenwave Han Mansion, he was, naturally, willing to give it a try. Moreover, this method was suggested by Duan Lingtian.
Just as he had said, although this was his first time meeting Duan Lingtian, he already knew Duan Lingtian was a trustworthy person.
Due to this reason, he did not doubt Duan Lingtian's words at all.
"Not only that …"
Duan Lingtian spoke again. However, this time, he was intentionally whetting Han Zheng Tian's appetite. When he saw the curiosity in Han Zheng Tian's eyes, he continued to say, "I suspect he's a disciple from a quasi third-rate force in the Dobusei Subterranean because he can easily take out many third-rate Saint Stones."
A quasi third-rate force!
One must admit that Duan Lingtian's words shocked Han Zheng Tian once again.
Although a quasi third-rate force was still a fourth-rate force to a certain extent, it was still superior to ordinary fourth-rate forces.
Although the Rising Sky Mansion was powerful, it was only an ordinary fourth-rate force.
Compared to a quasi third-rate force, it was far from being comparable.
The cultivation resources possessed by a quasi third-rate force were also better than ordinary fourth-rate forces. Their Saint Stone reserves were the best in the Dobusei Subterranean. They could produce a large amount of third-rate Saint Stones.
"Can you really contact him and ask for his help?"
Han Zheng Tian asked as he stared at Duan Lingtian with a burning gaze.
The fact that he, the leader of a fifth-rate force, lost his composure was enough to show how shocking Duan Lingtian's words were to him.
"Uncle Han, this matter concerns Xue Nai's happiness. I don't dare to joke about it."
Duan Lingtian said solemnly.
"Moreover, it doesn't matter if you believe me for now. If you want to personally kill the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, it won't be too late even if you wait until the Rising Sky Ranking Battle ends, right?"
Duan Lingtian said again.
"Little Tian, if you can really ask your friend to help you kill the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion during the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, I'll owe you a big favor!"
Han Zheng Tian said solemnly.
"Uncle Han, you're treating me like an outsider. This is what I should do. Xue Nai has helped me a lot back then, and I've long regarded her as my biological sister. I don't need anything in return for helping my biological sister. "
Duan Lingtian said solemnly.
"I'm treating you like an outsider."
Han Zheng Tian nodded.
After Han Zheng Tian left, Han Xuenai immediately went up to Duan Lingtian and asked curiously, "Brother Ling Tian, what did my father say to you? It's so mysterious."
"Nothing much. He just wanted to discuss with me to see if there's any way I can help you get through this difficult time."
Duan Lingtian looked at Han Xuenai lovingly.
"Brother Ling Tian, this matter isn't as simple as it seems."
Han Xuenai smiled wryly. In fact, she had already accepted her fate to a certain extent.
For the sake of her father and the Greenwave Han Mansion, she was prepared to sacrifice herself.
"We'll only know if it's as simple as that … Xue Nai, Brother Ling Tian will be leaving soon. Take good care of yourself. Perhaps, when you see Brother Ling Tian again, the problem you're facing now will be solved. "
Duan Lingtian said to Han Xuenai.
"Brother Ling Tian, you're leaving?"
