Yu Tianheng Ranked Eighteenth! Couldn't Even Squeeze Into the Top Fifteen! The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Seethed as One!
Heaven Dou Empire Imperial Palace
On the terrace of the Heaven Dou Empire Imperial Palace, Xue Ye watched the Ranking List on the Sky Screen.
A trace of delight flashed through his eyes as he turned to Marshal Gelong beside him and said,
"Gelong, look at this Yu Tianxin. A collateral genius of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, yet he actually ranked nineteenth.
If such talent can be put to use by our Heaven Dou Empire, it will surely strengthen the Empire's foundation of Spirit Masters.
Yu Tianheng is also at our Heaven Dou Royal Academy, while Yu Tianxin is a student of Thunder Academy. We have always been on friendly terms with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!
It may not be impossible to win them all over!"
Marshal Gelong bowed. "Your Majesty is wise!
Yu Tianxin is at Thunder Academy, and Thunder Academy belongs to the Five Elements Academy. It is within the Heaven Dou Empire's borders, so we have a great chance of recruiting him.
This minister will immediately send people to Thunder Academy, offering him high office and generous rewards, and strive to bring him under our command."
At the side, Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, wore a gentle smile, but inwardly she sneered.
He is merely a collateral disciple. Is he worth such attention? With talent like that, he isn't even worthy of carrying my shoes.
Yet she echoed aloud, "Father is absolutely right. Yu Tianxin is indeed talented. If he can serve the Empire, it will be Heaven Dou's good fortune."
Star Luo Empire Palace.
Within the Palace Hall of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Yutian sat upon the Dragon Throne, his gaze fixed on the Sky Screen as sharp as an eagle's.
He snorted coldly. "The Heaven Dou Empire is probably thinking of recruiting him again. Pass down my order: have Dai Weisi personally make a trip to Thunder Academy.
No matter what methods he uses, he must bring Yu Tianxin back to the Star Luo Empire! Even if he has to tie him up and drag him back! Even if we cannot have him, we cannot allow such a prodigy to fall into the Heaven Dou Empire's hands. That would be aiding the enemy!"
Dai Weisi stepped forward and knelt on one knee. "Your son obeys! Though Yu Tianxin has talent, under the iron-blooded laws of the Star Luo Empire, he will surely bow his head in submission. He is merely a collateral disciple; he cannot stir up much trouble."
Dai Yutian waved a hand, a flash of ambition passing through his eyes. "Talent does not depend on one's origins. So long as someone has value, they must be firmly grasped in our hands.
If the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Thunder Power can be used by Star Luo, we will have even greater confidence in dealing with the Heaven Dou Empire."
Outside Suotuo City, Shrek Academy.
The atmosphere instantly grew heated. The disciples gathered around the edge of the Training Ground, their blazing gazes fixed on the Sky Vault.
Dai Mubai crossed his arms and glanced at the information on the Sky Screen, a haughty curve forming at the corner of his lips.
"A collateral branch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? He ranked nineteenth? Isn't the threshold for this Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking a little too low?
He is only one rank above that Huo Wu. In my eyes, he isn't even worthy of carrying my shoes!"
Soul Power faintly rippled around him. Clearly, he did not take Yu Tianxin's ranking seriously at all and felt that the other man's talent was not worth mentioning.
Ma Hongjun rubbed his hands together and grinned. "Hahaha, even a collateral branch made the list. Then how amazing must their direct-line young master, Yu Tianheng, be?
I really want to see whether this young master can squeeze into the top ten. Don't let him end up worse than a collateral disciple, or people will laugh themselves to death!"
As he spoke, he swayed his body, looking like someone eager to watch the fun grow bigger, completely unconcerned with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's geniuses.
Ning Rongrong's pretty face carried a lofty arrogance as she gave a soft snort. "He is only a collateral disciple. So this is all the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has.
If he were a disciple of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this little bit of strength would not even be worth looking at, much less enough to make some Heavenly Pride Ranking."
In her eyes, only the heritage of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the talent of the Shrek Seven Devils deserved the words "heavenly pride."
Zhu Zhuqing stood to the side, agile as a spirit cat in the dark night. She merely raised her eyes and swept a calm glance over the Sky Screen before withdrawing her gaze, remaining as taciturn as ever.
Yu Xiaogang stood beside Flender with his hands behind his back, watching the information on the Sky Screen with a slight frown.
Putting on the air of an impartial rationalist, he slowly began his assessment.
"Tianxin ranking nineteenth shows that his overall potential is indeed outstanding among those of the Same Level. It is not bad.
However, he comes from a collateral branch and has limited resources. He will likely encounter many bottlenecks in his future cultivation. Whether he can continue breaking through will depend on his opportunities and temperament."
He styled himself the continent's number one Master of Theory and had to analyze every prodigy's ranking from a theoretical perspective, striving to appear fair and objective.
But he did not even look at what a useless piece of trash he was before daring to judge others.
Sunset Forest, Dou Po Academy.
On the Training Ground of Dou Po Academy, Meng Yi Ran watched Yu Tianxin's information on the Sky Screen as the Three Thousand Burning Flame at her fingertips suddenly flickered.
A mocking smile curled her lips. "A collateral branch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? So what if his martial soul mutated?
He is only a Battle Soul Elder now, with Innate Soul Power of merely Level 8, and he dares call himself a prodigy? Before Dou Qi, this little Thunder Power is nothing more than a tickle."
Du Gu Yan also curled her lips in disdain, the Falling Heart Flame in her palm radiating Burning Hot heat.
"Exactly. I think the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking has poor judgment too. If Yu Tianxin dares come to Dou Po Academy and act wild, I can deal with him with one finger."
Every one of Zhou Xu's personal disciples had been bestowed Heavenly Flames!
Gu Yue Na nodded slightly, a trace of agreement flashing through her cool eyes.
"Teacher is right. Our goal is the Dou God Realm.
This Heavenly Pride Ranking is merely scenery along the way. Yu Tianxin is not worth mentioning."
Watching the disdainful expressions of his disciples, Zhou Xu smiled faintly and raised a hand to signal for silence.
"Prodigies of the Soul Power System have their own unique strengths. Though you cultivate Dou Qi and your talent far surpasses his,
you must not become overly arrogant. Underestimating any opponent is a great taboo on the path of cultivation.
When you meet them, just beat them to death. Kill, but do not torment."
Ji Hongyue's red robes fluttered fiercely. The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame intertwined with the Dragon God Origin, and battle intent flashed through her eyes.
"Rest assured, Teacher. Even if Yu Tianxin truly has some ability, we are not afraid.
So long as he dares appear before us, I will make him understand the gap between a Dou Qi Prodigy and a Soul Power prodigy!"
Ye Ling Ling smiled gently, the Flame of Life atop her staff swaying softly.
"That's right. Heavenly Dao Blessing may be good, but our true foundation has always been our own Dou Qi and Heavenly Flames.
Yu Tianxin is merely a stepping stone on our path of growth."
The Golden Light on the Sky Screen remained as Burning Hot as ever, while the thoughts of the various powers across the continent grew increasingly complicated because of the Gold Ranking List.
But at that moment, the Golden Light on the Sky Screen surged again.
The ranking for eighteenth place exploded like a thunderclap, ruthlessly shattering every fantasy of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
[Heavenly Pride Ranking, Eighteenth Place: Yu Tianheng] [Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon] [Innate Soul Power: Level 9] [Level: Level 39 Soul Elder Peak] [Affiliated Power: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Imperial Dou Academy] [Comprehensive Evaluation: The direct-line young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. His martial soul is orthodox, his Thunder Power pure, and his combat strength formidable. However, compared to peerless prodigies, his potential is somewhat mediocre.] [Heavenly Dao Blessing: Thunder Affinity permanently +8%, Spirit Skill Power increased by 3%! Bestowed one Sub-Dragon Wings and a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring with 100% compatibility!]
"Boom!"
This line of text was like thunder from the nine heavens, striking the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's council hall into dead silence.
Time seemed to freeze at that instant, and every smile stiffened on their faces.
Their eyes widened as they stared fixedly at the Sky Screen, as though they could not believe what they were seeing.
"Ei... eighteenth place?" An elder spoke tremblingly, his voice shaking uncontrollably. "Only... only one rank above Yu Tianxin?"
The pride on Yu Tianheng's face instantly froze, then turned into utter shock.
He suddenly staggered back a step and slammed into the table behind him with a loud crash.
"Impossible!" he shrieked hysterically, his eyes bloodshot.
The Soul Power of his Soul Elder peak erupted uncontrollably, blue-purple lightning wildly lashing about him.
"I am the young master! My martial soul is the pure Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!
How could I rank only eighteenth? How could I be only one rank above Yu Tianxin?!"
