How could Chen Hao have the ability to resist?
Chu Qingtian's fist was just like its name. It was enough to topple the heavens, at least to Chen Hao. A ten percent chance of victory. Chen Hao had grasped that ten percent chance of victory and obtained the final victory. However, in the end, he did not hold back and exceeded his limits. This caused him to exhaust all of his energy. More accurately speaking, he was even more exhausted than Chu Qingtian …
Fortunately, the Immortal Bloodline, which couldn't be used in battle, and the strong body, soul, recovery ability, and wisdom, allowed him to win the final victory.
Even when he was lying on the ground, he could still stand up and kill Chu Qingtian. However, he did not do so. Although the time was short, it was better to wait and gather energy than to drag his heavy body over.
… …
Fortunately, Xia Youyou only pinched Chen Hao and was too embarrassed to continue. After all, Chen Hao was now the most dazzling star. Even when Xia Lingfeng was about to announce the final results of this year's Inter-Sect Competition, many people had their eyes on him.
Xia Youyou and Leng Yihan, who were sitting together, also attracted many people's attention.
… …
Xia Lingfeng's majestic voice resounded throughout the entire Martial Arts Practice Field, suppressing the sounds of excitement and disappointment from hearing the results. The first to be announced was the ranking of this year's Inter-Sect Competition, in order from lowest to highest. It was mainly based on the results and performance of the group matches. The results of the sect's test and the number of people who had passed the test to qualify for the competition were also taken into account. However, the proportion of these was very small.
As more and more sects were announced, the buzz of discussion grew louder and louder.
"Great Elder, what … will we be ranked?"
In the spectator stands where the Star-Picking Sect disciples were seated, the Star-Picking Sect's name still hadn't appeared when Xia Lingfeng announced that the top thirty were basically all rank eight sects. At this time, the Star-Picking Sect disciples, including the three great elders, were all very excited. Long Yukong couldn't help but ask the great elder.
"Old Man isn't sure either … but we should be in the top twenty, right? This result is not only based on the results of the group matches, but also the number of participants, test results, and so on. Otherwise, we would definitely be in the top ten … Hehe … All of you are good! If nothing goes wrong, our Star-Picking Sect will definitely become a sixth-grade sect, or even higher … "
As they spoke, Xia Lingfeng had already reported the 25th name, but the Star-Picking Sect's name still hadn't appeared.
"Number 20, the seventh-grade sect, Myriad Pill Pavilion!"
* Crash … *
But when the name of the Myriad Pill Pavilion appeared, the entire martial arts practice field buzzed with discussion. The disciples of the Myriad Pill Pavilion were all staring at him, seemingly unconvinced. The disciples of the Star-Picking Sect were also staring at him in surprise. As far as they were concerned, even though the Myriad Pill Pavilion hadn't taken first place in their group, their results should have been better than the Star-Picking Sect's. After all, the more people who qualified for the official competition, the higher the test results would be.
However, the names of the sects that were announced after that shocked everyone even more. 19th, 18th, 17th … Just as they were about to enter the top ten, the Star-Picking Sect's name still didn't appear.
"Eleventh place … Third rank sect, Starseizing Sect!"
Whoosh!
"Eleven, it's actually the eleventh … Isn't that too high? Although they are the first in the group, they only have ten people who are qualified for the competition … How can they be so high? "
Such discussions spread throughout the entire Martial Arts Practice Field. Even the Star Picking Sect did not expect this and felt a little embarrassed. They even thought to themselves, 'Could it be that the Ling Tian Sect, the new leader of the Ten Celestial Dao Sects, was deliberately biased because of the relationship between Chen Hao and Xia Youyou?
…
"Hehe …" At this moment, Xia Lingfeng paused for the first time. He looked at the audience in the martial arts practice field and said, "Everyone might have doubts about the Star-Picking Sect's ranking. However, this is a bonus point given by a Celestial Venerable! Perhaps, in everyone's opinion, the disciples who are qualified to participate in this year's Inter-sect Competition are true geniuses. Even those who qualify for the test are considered geniuses. However, please look further and broaden your horizons.
In the entire cultivation world, our Eastern Continent is the place with the worst Karmic Luck. Our so-called geniuses would be mediocre even in the Western Continent or the Southern Sea Islands, let alone the Middle Continent … We lack true geniuses who can change the fate of the Eastern Continent, who can make a name for themselves in the Boundless Continent, who can bring fate, glory, and status to the Eastern Continent! The Star-Picking Sect, on the other hand, was only a third-grade sect. But, they had it! And they had more than one! Chen Hao, as well as Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian, who did not make it into the top twenty, had it too! In terms of cultivation level, talent, and comprehension, how many of the so-called geniuses present could compare to them at their age?
A single third-grade sect has three of them. They're stronger than any of the Ten Immortal Dao Sects! Does anyone have any objections? I can tell you now that the Star-Picking Sect is not only ranked eleventh, but we'll also become an eighth-grade sect. The Sect will also be promoted to an Eighth Rank Sect. Like the Myriad Pill Pavilion, it will become a Sect fully protected and nurtured by the Ten Immortal Sects! "
Xia Lingfeng's impassioned speech caused the entire Martial Arts Practice Field to become absolutely silent.
It also made everyone understand one thing. The Eastern Continent did not lack so-called geniuses at all. What it lacked was true geniuses who could compete with geniuses from other regions!
Only such geniuses could change the Eastern Continent's Karmic Luck!
Xia Lingfeng immediately announced the first place, starting from tenth place.
Although the Sky Sword Sect had lost first place in their group because of the Star-Picking Sect, their foundation and large number of participants still placed fourth. Of course, if it were not for Wu Ruochen's death, their ranking could still be improved.
The Origin Gate ranked third, the Floating Mist Sect ranked second, and the Ling Tian Sect ranked first.
The Yuan Gate was ranked third and was also affected by Chu Qingtian's death. Gu Xing, who placed fourth in the individual competition, became the second in the Floating Mist Sect. The Ling Tian Sect ranked first because of Xia Youyou.
This was the difference between the Ten Immortal Dao Sects and the other sects. The Ten Immortal Dao Sects were all ninth-grade sects. Although there was a great disparity in strength, the Origin Gate, the Sky Sword Sect, the Floating Mist Sect, and the Ling Tian Sect's top four ranking were very similar. In addition, the female Celestial Supremacy valued true geniuses, resulting in the current ranking.
No one questioned it, and no one dared to.
…
Yuwen Tairan, who was sitting on the rostrum, was so excited when he learned that the Star-Picking Sect ranked eleventh and became an eighth-grade sect. This wasn't just a matter of ranking or reputation. It also meant that the Star-Picking Sect would be rewarded with a large amount of resources. It meant that from now on, with the full support of the ten immortal sects, the Star-Picking Sect would rapidly grow and flourish. This was definitely an outcome that he did not even dare to imagine before the start of the competition. Following this outcome, the Star-Picking Sect would have to open its doors to recruit elites, and a series of other problems to deal with!
This made him excited, but it also made him nervous, and he was a little worried about his gains and losses.
…
Next was the announcement of the individual top 100 rankings. In the so-called top 100, only the top 20 were determined by real battles. The remaining 80 were jointly evaluated by the sect leaders of the Ten Immortal Dao Sects based on their performance in the group competition.
Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian were among the top 100.
Helian Wuzi, in particular, was ranked 21st. Of course, if Wu Ruochen and Chu Qingtian were not dead, Helian Wuzi would be ranked 23rd. The other two who made it into the top 20 were the second strongest in the Sky Sword Sect, Meng Lang, and the second strongest in the Floating Mist Sect.
This meant that Helian Wuzi's combat strength was ranked first under the Embodiment Stage. Even many half-step avatars were no match for her.
…
Chen Hao ranked first, Xia Youyou and Leng Yihan tied for second, and Gu Xing ranked fourth. They were the top four in the competition. The title of "Four Young Masters" given by the Eastern Continent's cultivation world was eliminated because of Xia Youyou. In fact, even without Xia Youyou, Leng Yihan's real identity would have eliminated this title.
Among the top 100 contestants, only the top four received a special token. This was a special token of the Wuji Immortal Palace called "Guardian". Any disciple who received the Guardian Token had the authority to travel in the Wuji Immortal Dao Sects. For Chen Hao and the other three, it meant that they could step out of the Eastern Continent. Moreover, in any Immortal Dao Sects, elites above the Nascent Soul Realm could not kill them. Otherwise, no matter who it was, they would have to bear the wrath of the Wuji Immortal Palace.
…
"Yuwen Tairan."
When the Inter-Sect Competition finally came to an end, all the sect leaders and everyone in the Martial Arts Arena respectfully sent off the Celestial Prime. Yuwen Tairan, who was bowing with cupped fists, suddenly heard a faint voice that made Yuwen Tairan's body stiffen and his brain almost crash.
"After midnight tonight, I will come to the Star-Picking Sect's courtyard. I have something to discuss with you. Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian need to be present … "
"Yes … Yes …" Yuwen Tairan only reacted when the female Celestial Prime disappeared and responded. However, the target of the voice transmission had already disappeared. It turned into energy floating in the void.
A moment later, his face, which was already in a state of excitement, became as red as a monkey's buttocks. Although he did not know what the female Celestial Prime's so-called "discussion" was, he knew that it was definitely a great thing. And it was definitely a great thing related to Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian.
The only thing that made him feel strange was that the female Celestial Prime did not mention Chen Hao.
…
Xia Lingfeng also received the voice transmission. Naturally, it was because of Xia Youyou.
As for the Myriad Pill Pavilion Master, he did not receive the female Celestial Prime's message.
…
"The three of them did not make this trip in vain. Xia Youyou is only twenty years old, and Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian are only in their early twenties. If the two of them had Xia Youyou's background, they would definitely not be worse than Xia Youyou … "
When the female Celestial Prime appeared in the core palace specially prepared for her, there was a faint smile on her lips as she murmured.
"It would be even better if Chen Hao and Leng Yihan were not her people. What a pity …" If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
