Hidden Dragon Leaderboard, Central Square!
"Your Majesty, it seems like the Prince Consort is just starting to show his strength!"
In just three seconds, Yu Haoran's ranking had risen to 50 places. This made Meng Zhengkai secretly heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, he could not help but guess.
"With the Prince Consort's perfect understanding of the Law of Speed, it's impossible for him to have such a bad result in the first round of the preliminary round. I wonder what he's thinking."
Emperor Qin nodded in agreement with Meng Zhengkai's speculation. At the same time, he was rather dissatisfied with Yu Haoran's performance in the first round.
In this regard, Meng Zhengkai, who knew his limits, only smiled and did not express any opinion.
"Your Majesty, the Prince Consort's name is rising again!" Meng Zhengkai's smile was immediately replaced by an even brighter one.
Subsequently, Yu Haoran's ranking began to climb rapidly in the tens or even the hundreds.
After he had successfully broken through the independent space of the metal element, his ranking had shot up from 18365 to 16365. That was an increase of 2,000 places. Emperor Qin and Meng Zhengkai were completely relieved.
However, as Yu Haoran's ranking was too low in the beginning, apart from those who were paying attention to him, very few people noticed the drastic change in his ranking. Therefore, it did not cause any commotion.
…!
Turning his head to look at the 399 steps behind him, Yu Haoran thought for a moment and realized that the independent space of the metal element had moved forward when he had broken and broken the semi-circular sword fan formed by the swords.
Maintaining the strength of the Wizard Ancestor's body and holding the white rod in his hand, Yu Haoran stepped onto the 400th step.
Subsequently, the scene changed from the steps to a forest that was filled with the scent of spring.
Standing at the edge of the forest, Lin Huang spread out his Divine Sense that was infinitely close to that of a Martial Honorable and began to examine the forest in front of him.
Yu Haoran could not help but frown as his Spiritual Sense, which was infinitely close to that of a Martial Honorable, reached a distance of nearly 100,000 kilometers.
This was because not only did the forest cover an area of more than 100,000 kilometers, but the entire forest was also extremely quiet. Other than the trees with different thick roots, there were no other living creatures.
In that case, how could he break open the independent space of the wood attribute represented by the trees?
After thinking hard for three minutes, Yu Haoran, who had no idea how to solve this problem, could only execute his movement technique and enter the forest. He wanted to see if he could find a way to solve this problem by going deeper into the forest.
However, as soon as he entered the forest, he felt like he was being watched. He immediately retracted his Divine Sense and carefully examined the area within a radius of five kilometers.
However, not only was the search fruitless, but the feeling of being watched still hadn't disappeared.
There was only one reason why he was still being spied on even when there were no living beings around.
Thinking of this, Yu Haoran connected with the staff's Weapon Spirit with his mind. When the white staff instantly turned into a hundred-meter-long giant staff, he directly swung the hundred-meter-long staff and swept the hundreds of trees around him.
The expected sound of trees breaking did not appear. The white staff that he swung was tightly entangled by countless vines that suddenly emerged from the ground and lost the power to sweep the forest.
Without needing Yu Haoran's command, the Weapon Spirit automatically shrank the length and volume of the white staff and broke free from the vines' entanglement.
The vines that lost their target did not shrink back into the ground. Instead, they brandished their claws and fangs and whipped toward Yu Haoran.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Haoran put away the white staff in his hand and immediately took out the Saint Stage Upper Grade Elixir Furnace that he had not used for a long time from his storage ring.
Opening the lid of the elixir furnace, he gathered eighty percent of his Origin Energy with his left hand and slapped the elixir furnace.
Then, countless scorching flames shot out from the elixir furnace and met the countless vines that whipped toward him.
Among the five elements, fire was the nemesis of wood!
Facing the countless flames that shot toward him, the countless vines that were whipping toward him immediately trembled and wanted to shrink back into the ground.
But how could Yu Haoran let them do as they wished?
The hundred-meter-long white staff was once again formed. Combining eighty percent of his Origin Energy and sixty percent of his Soul Power, he used a sweeping staff technique to attack the hundreds of trees in the surroundings.
At this moment, the countless vines that were desperately trying to shrink back into the ground suddenly hesitated.
If they continued to shrink back into the ground, although they could avoid being burned by the flames, their bodies would inevitably suffer a destructive blow.
If they sacrificed countless vines, the wood body that had lost its nourishment would also not be far from death.
Just when the countless vines were caught in a dilemma, Yu Haoran suddenly increased the speed of the staff's attack.
Just when the countless flames had just touched the vines, the hundred-meter-long white staff directly swept through hundreds of trees.
Following the sound of hundreds of trees breaking and countless vines burning, the spring-filled forest in front of him immediately disappeared without a trace. What appeared next was the familiar 466th step.
Just when Yu Haoran successfully broke through the independent space of the wood element, the position that originally belonged to him on the leaderboard above the castle's central plaza immediately shot up like a rocket to 14365. Another increase of 2000 ranks directly.
Looking at each other, Emperor Qin and Meng Zhengkai were completely relieved. Then, they began to pay attention to the rankings of the other contestants from the Emperor Qin Kingdom.
"Eh!"
Just when Meng Zhengkai was checking the leaderboard to see if there were any contestants from the Emperor Qin Kingdom on it, he was unexpectedly attracted by a name that had just rushed into the 100th place.
"Your Majesty, isn't the 100th place Wu Zhengjun the disciple that has the best relationship with the Prince Consort from the same sect?"
"That's right!"
Nodding in response to Meng Zhengkai's inquiry, Emperor Qin's gaze immediately turned to the 100th place on the leaderboard.
When he saw Wu Zhengjun's name, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Perhaps it was because Yu Haoran's brilliance was too dazzling that it caused the people around him to be overshadowed. No one would have thought that the seemingly silent Wu Zhengjun actually had such outstanding talent and strength.
"Old Marshal, I remember that Wu Zhengjun seemed to have followed Tianze to train in the border army for a period of time. Do you know?"
Wu Zhengjun's outstanding performance immediately made Emperor Qin appreciate his talent and want to rope him in. The method of receiving rewards through military merits was one of the methods to rope him in.
"I remember!"
Meng Zhengkai, who knew Emperor Qin's thoughts as well as Wu Zhengjun's performance in the army, hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty, Wu Zhengjun's performance in the army was outstanding. Not only did he repeatedly make outstanding contributions, but he was also not arrogant and did not receive rewards for his contributions. He was highly regarded by the First Prince."
As if very satisfied with Wu Zhengjun's performance, Emperor Qin nodded and ordered, "Old Marshal, after the Hidden Dragon Rankings in the Southern Region is over, discuss with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites to see if Wu Zhengjun's military merits are worthy of a title."
