As the seven lower spots in the top ten were announced, many people began to see a pattern!
"The dark horses at the Star Fusion Realm are Su Ling, Li Qiankun, and Zhang Xuan."
"They ranked tenth, ninth, and sixth, respectively."
"That's about as high as a dark horse can go, isn't it?"
"The remaining four are all prodigies on the level of Holy Sons and Holy Maidens."
Outlook and strength of character played a huge part in this test!
From the experiences shown, it was clear that Holy Sons and Holy Maidens had seen more of the world because of their status and backgrounds.
They held Great Vows and possessed even greater ambition!
"The top three are almost certainly beyond those dark horses!"
"They should all be Holy Sons or Holy Maidens!"
The three thousand True Inheritance Disciples looked from one prominent Holy Son to another, speculating endlessly!
In truth, having three dark horses on the list was already a considerable surprise!
Some eyes fell on Su Ye!
But their owners shook their heads!
"At least one thing is clear."
"Su Ye's comprehension is extraordinary, and his Combat Strength against opponents at the same realm is just as absurd!"
"That Combat Strength can be explained, to a degree... I've heard that places like the Central World Sea have rare monsters with Nine Star Constant Bodies. At the Star Fusion Realm, they can resonate with nine strands of Star Marrow, giving them nine times the Foundation of an ordinary cultivator at that realm!"
"Some gifted cultivators also gain opportunities that grant them overwhelming Combat Strength at the Star Fusion Realm, at the cost of their future potential!"
"His performance does fit, doesn't it? His sword strikes look unremarkable."
"But his sheer Foundation is frightening?"
That was all they could guess!
