[Ranked 18th on the Hidden Dragon Ranking: Ying Bing]

[Martial Arts: Second Aperture of Divine Observation, with Sword Heart Clarity, martial arts attainment has reached the pinnacle of perfection, possessing extremely powerful Secret Method, seemingly able to observe the divine form.]

[Achievements: The current top disciple of Clear Abyss Sect, Heavenly Demoness from Yun Province Sword Hero. In the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm, he joined forces with Li Mo to defeat Han Zhen and Yin Huaxuan, and even scared them away. When Divine Observation Realm, he defeated the Heavenly Demoness in her Three Apertures of Divine Observation state. On the Sword Tower, he observed the Spirit Stones and comprehended a divine skill. When Second Aperture of Divine Observation, Heavenly Demon Phantom Form his sword.]

[Nickname: Moon Sword Phoenix, Cold Fairy]

The Fish-Dragon Lake suddenly fell silent. The voices that had just been clamoring to invite Little Li back to be their son-in-law all fell silent.

No one has ever seen someone of such age receive such high praise from the Heaven Derivation Sect in their lifetime.

If we really have to look, we'll probably only be able to recount the stories of those once-famous figures.

The group realized they might be witnessing history.

"I'm over fifty and haven't even mastered a single Supreme Lore. How could her martial arts skills have reached such a pinnacle?"

"I was fortunate enough to hear her preach at the Sword Pool, but when I bent down to pick up a pen and looked up again, I couldn't understand a word she said."

"She's only at the Second Aperture of Divine Observation Realm. If she catches up in cultivation one day, wouldn't she easily seize the top spot on the Hidden Dragon Ranking?"

"The fact that Yin Mianmian, ranked sixth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, suffered repeated setbacks is enough to demonstrate its prestige."

"If it weren't for her and Young Hero Li, Cloud-Crossing Sword City would likely have lost its most precious treasure!"

"I thought 'The Overbearing Empress Falls in Love With Me' was just a picture book, but I didn't expect it to be so conservative."

"Does anyone have the latest issue of the picture book? I haven't been able to buy it for three days, and I feel like ants are crawling all over me."

"Hiss... wait a minute, Young Hero Li Fairy Ying's talent is unparalleled throughout history, if it were the two of them..."

The scene at Fish-Dragon Lake was quite chaotic at one point.

Cloud-Crossing Sword City, atop the Sword Tower.

The Sword Tower soars into the clouds, and from here one can vaguely see the Dragon Gate. Of course, for some powerful individuals, even from this distance, the Dragon Gate is still within sight.

At this moment Tian Miao was sitting in front of the stone table, pouring out a bowl of blood-nourishing soup made from Dragon-Skin Donkey-Hide Gelatin, and pondering as she drank it.

Although she couldn't see the boy's fate, the Heaven Derivation Sect's information channels didn't rely primarily on personal connections; there were various other sources as well.

Judging from what the Heaven Derivation Sect already possesses.

The description of Li Mo in the Hidden Dragon Ranking is evasive and downplays his strengths.

The characters 'Yinghuo' were not even marked.

What was Master considering when he did this?

"Thank you Tian Miao, for your help."

Elder Xu, the white-haired youth, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The sword character was saved.

"Thank you for what?"

Tian Miao complexion had improved somewhat, looked up and asked.

Another elderly Dharma Body Elder was taken aback:

"Uh, it's about that kid's comprehension of the Spirit Stone..."

"..."

Tian Miao was a little confused. She had fainted due to the backlash from the Fate Observation Technique and had no idea what happened afterward.

What did he realize?

After a moment, she chuckled softly:

"Of course, no need to say more."

Inside the painted boats and multi-storied ships.

I heard that a new courtesan has arrived here, with captivating beauty and innate allure. As a result, some people have even stopped looking at the Hidden Dragon Ranking and come here to listen to her music, hoping to become her intimate guests.

The sounds of silk and bamboo instruments are melodious, and the music of zither and lute is captivating.

The crowd gathered in the courtyard, listening to the music, their eyes gradually becoming hazy, as if they were seeing a celestial maiden descend to earth, her emotions tender and poignant.

Then, without knowing who started it, they began fighting, and both ended up with blood on their heads.

The madam seemed used to this and simply went behind the screen.

"Saintess, Xu Yi still hasn't sent back any news."

"He's probably dead. It seems that kid is determined to sever ties with the Drizzle Pavilion."

There was no response for a long time, and the madam dared not say anything more.

The Saintess served as a backdrop for the two in succession, and in Yun Province, the reputation of the Drizzle Pavilion was greatly affected, almost to the point that people lost all sense of awe.

Every stock is a horrifying sight with its price plummeting, desperately needing some positive news...

After a long while, Yin Mianmian seemed to come back to her senses:

"Then go and change the Bounty, and raise the price tenfold."

"Yes."

[Rank 17 on the Hidden Dragon Ranking: He Jinhuan]

[Rank 16 on the Hidden Dragon Ranking: Huikong]

The Hidden Dragon Ranking continues to flash with the names of one prodigy after another.

"Tsk... look at Ice Block's nickname."

Little Li wasn't surprised by the ranking of the Ice Block.

They're only one place apart, so how come their nicknames are so different? Are they even from the same art style?

Oh well, it's still better than those Flying Poison Green-Haired Turtles and the like.

Thinking of Huang Donglai's nickname, Li Mo felt much better. He pouted and smiled:

"Moon Sword Phoenix?"

"..."

A certain Ice Block's serene gaze swept over them slightly, and the hand holding the teacup curled up slightly.

Read but not replying.

Li Mo's smile widened, and he called out again, "Cold Fairy?"

"..." Ying Bing swallowed her tea, her delicate eyebrows slightly raised:

"Wife-Prospering Fighting Soul?"

"Hiss..."

Li Mo gasped, goosebumps rising all over his body.

It's unimaginable that someone would come to challenge me in the future, addressing me by name and using only these four words.

It was a social death scene...

However, the Ice Block man put down his teacup and rested his chin on his hand.

She paused for a few seconds, looked directly into Li Mo's eyes, and added:

"Wife-Prospering Fighting Soul?"

"... I was being inconsiderate just now."

I never imagined that one day Ice Block would learn how to finish off an opponent.

Little Li has behaved himself.

Seeing this, Ying Bing's eyes showed a barely perceptible hint of satisfaction.

Seems like something's made you a little happy?

She herself wasn't quite sure.

Perhaps it's because... he finally surpassed Li Mo in the rankings?

The next system ranking should also be...

After.

They ignored Elder Qian and Elder Xue, who were pressing each other's philtrum, and they ignored the senior brothers and sisters who were dumbfounded and questioning their existence.

Both sides signed a non-aggression pact and agreed not to use each other's nicknames thereafter.

"Chulong, you're my witness, from now on, no one is allowed to call each other by nicknames... Chulong?"

Li Mo turned his head as he spoke.

But they noticed that Princess Little Jiang's expression was not quite right. Her little face was blank as she stared at the Hidden Dragon Ranking in the Dragon Gate, her lips almost bleeding from being bitten.

Li Mo followed her gaze and looked towards the center of the lake.

[Second on the Hidden Dragon Ranking: Xie Xuan]

[Top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking: Jiang Yu]

[Martial Arts: Possessing the True Dragon Body and the Bone of the Imperial Sword, he was born with divine and extraordinary abilities. He can already observe the Map of Mountains and Rivers, inherit the power of the Nine Provinces and Ten Thousand Regions, and has received a Dynastic Luck. He has mastered the Method of Dragon Transformation and the Imperial Shangfang Sword Technique...]

[Battle Record: Undefeated among his peers; captured the Vast Sea Giant Whale Ocean in the North Sea; fought for several days against the Saint Son of the Demon Summoning Cult, who was once the number one in the Hidden Dragon Sect; broke through in battle and killed him.]

Jiang Chulong's oval face suddenly turned even whiter than snow.

She frantically wiped away her tears, her words becoming even more incoherent:

"I... I... I'm fine..."

"That's the Crown Prince of Great Yu." Ying Bing's voice rang in her ears.

Hmm... They all have the surname Jiang, but Hidden Dragon still number one.

He was one of Chulong's closest people, and also her deepest nightmare.
