"What?"
"The Challenge Ranking?"
"And life and death don't matter?"
"Wait, so the Eternal Ranking isn't planning to let me play along?"
"I didn't get to take part in the Sacred Weapon Ranking, and now I can't participate in the Challenge Ranking either?"
After Chen Changan returned, he explained what the Challenge Ranking was about. Da Huang was deeply frustrated.
If life and death didn't matter, what was the point of playing?
"Da Huang, you were too busy enjoying yourself at the brothels to put in the work."
"If you'd spent these past five years cultivating, wouldn't your cultivation be higher?"
"Add that to your fighting strength, and why would you fear anyone else?"
"You didn't work hard. You've got no one to blame but yourself," Song Yuheng said with a wicked grin.
"What gives you the right to talk? Even if I didn't work hard, I'm still stronger than you."
"If I can't participate, do you think you can?"
"Take a look at your cultivation and your fighting strength," Da Huang said disdainfully.
"I..."
Hearing Da Huang's words, Song Yuheng had no comeback. He wasn't even as strong as Da Huang.
Their cultivation levels weren't far apart, but when it came to fighting strength, they weren't even in the same league.
"Enough. Let's stop wasting time on this."
"Changan, what are you planning?"
"There are ten spots in all. Do you already have people in mind?" Mu Yunyao asked.
"Yeah. You and I are obviously taking part. Chen Tian and Jian Dan have both improved their cultivation, so they'll join too."
"Besides us four, the little one can take part. Her cultivation has reached the Emperor Above Realm Ninth Heaven, and her fighting strength is nothing to scoff at."
"Then there are the three city lords of Empty City."
