Can Chang'an City Take the Top Spot? Chen Xin's Level Breakthrough!

"Ning Rongrong, what did you just say!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at Ning Rongrong and rebuked her angrily:

"Did you not hear what this Grandmaster just said? There are very few powers that can surpass the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan; this is nothing but a wild ranking!"

Ning Rongrong raised an eyebrow, her tone filled with undisguised mockery:

"You don't even understand the principle that there is always someone better, and a heaven beyond our own heaven? You must have given yourself that 'Grandmaster' title! If you say this Sky Screen is fake, then go ahead and destroy it~"

Yu Xiaogang was so provoked that his chest heaved violently, his face turning the color of a pig's liver.

The divine aura and heavenly might radiating from the Sky Screen made him terrified to even touch it.

Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly, beginning to harbor doubts about his status as a "Grandmaster."

"Ning Rongrong, that's enough!"

Flender could no longer hold back. He stepped forward and shouted in a deep voice:

"Regardless of whether this Sky Screen is true or false, how can you be so certain that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is the tail end of the Upper Three Sects?"

Tang San and the others, excluding Zhu Zhuqing, chimed in one after another:

"That's right. The other two sects haven't even appeared on the list yet; for all we know, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect might not even qualify for the list at all!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong bit her lower lip, the mockery in her eyes instantly sharpening into a piercing edge. She huffed:

"Just you wait and see, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will definitely make the list! Flender, don't you forget the bet we made!"

Flender pushed up his glasses and gave a cold laugh:

"I'll accompany you to the end. I will make sure you lose and are convinced of your defeat."

Yu Xiaogang also snorted in defiance as he looked at the Sky Screen, certain in his heart that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could not possibly rank above the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Chang'an City.

Watching the bottom of the list revealed by the Sky Screen.

Ye Han was slightly surprised, but he quickly figured it out and muttered:

"It seems the appetite of this Power Ranking is quite large; it is ranking far more than just soul master factions."

The clever and sharp-witted Shangguan Wan'er also realized this and nodded:

"Yes, imperial powers and soul beast factions will definitely be on the list as well, otherwise there wouldn't be so many spots left."

Ye Han asked with a playful tone:

"Wan'er, do you think that with the foundation of our Chang'an City, we can take the top spot?"

Shangguan Wan'er was stunned, unable to make up her mind for a moment.

She had accompanied Ye Han for many years and had heard him speak of all the powers on the continent.

Martial Soul Hall, Sea God Island, and Slaughter City all possessed divine inheritances and were guarded by demigods.

The Star Dou Forest even had a divine beast slumbering within it; she did not know if Chang'an could firmly suppress these existences.

"City Lord, Wan'er believes there is a seven or eight out of ten chance?"

Just as she finished speaking, a humming sound came from the Sky Screen high above once again:

"BOOM--!"

A shockwave, louder than the previous one, swept across the entire plane.

The original characters faded away like the tide, rapidly forming new text:

[Power Ranking, 14th Place: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect]

[Ruler Representative: Ning Fengzhi]

[Strongest Combat Representative: Chen Xin]

[Evaluation: One of the Upper Three Sects among the seven great sects of the Douluo Continent. It possesses thousands of clan soul master disciples, thousands of external soul master disciples, and two external Title Douluo elders. The sect inherits the top-tier auxiliary tool martial soul, the 'Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda'. Although it has inherent limitations and flaws, it is fortunately paired with the sect's unique inherited Distraction Control Secret Technique. By supporting many with one, the name of the pagoda is unparalleled in the world!]

[Low-tier Reward: The soul power levels of the two representatives are each increased by one level. All soul ring ages are increased by 1,500 years (if a representative has inherent limitations that cannot be improved, it is replaced by a 10,000-year soul bone perfectly adapted to their martial soul)!]

"The ranking is much as I expected, though the rewards are still lackluster."

Ye Han muttered. With his current perspective, these rewards could not catch his eye.

He hoped the subsequent rewards would not disappoint him, otherwise, the exposure of Chang'an would not be worth the cost.

The announcement of the new ranking on the Sky Screen once again caused an uproar throughout the Douluo Continent.

However, with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan as a precedent, the various powers were less shocked than they had been at the start.

There was more sentiment regarding the fact that "a support sect like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could actually edge out the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."

Before this, the continent had universally acknowledged the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as the tail end of the Upper Three Sects! Now, it was time for a redefinition!

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong both looked toward Ning Fengzhi and burst into hearty laughter.

"Fengzhi, look! Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect made the list, and we're ranked above the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"

"I was initially aiming for the top three, but I was too careless. I didn't expect there to be people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens; now we're in the bottom three."

"But at least we have the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to cushion the fall. If that old dragon Yu Yuanzhen sees this, he'll probably be furious to death, hahahahaha!"

Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi breathed a sigh of relief and joined in the laughter.

"Haha, at least we made the list. It's a stroke of luck amidst the misfortune!"

Yet, beneath his smile lay bitterness; the rewards from the sky screen still could not break the shackles that prevented him from advancing.

The next moment, a brilliant golden pillar of light descended from the heavens, instantly enveloping Chen Xin.

Vast energy surged into Chen Xin's body, and the bottleneck that had kept him stuck at the peak of level 96 for years shattered with a roar.

Level 97!

His Seven Kill Sword martial soul manifested instinctively, accompanied by nine soul rings, each of which increased in age by 1,500 years.

Four purple, five black!

The moment Sword Douluo Chen Xin opened his eyes, an aura of sharpness, far more potent than before, erupted from his body.

Now, his sword path had reached a new level of refinement, attaining the supreme realm where "my body is the sword, and the sword moves with my heart!"

"Congratulations, Uncle Sword, on advancing to level 97!"

Ning Fengzhi hurried forward, his face full of smiles as he offered his congratulations.

Chen Xin cupped his hands and said:

"It is all thanks to the sect's glory; otherwise, how could I have obtained such an opportunity!"

Gu Rong felt a pang of envy in his heart, yet he was genuinely happy for him and stepped forward quickly.

"I always considered myself your equal, but the sky screen chose you instead. Now, the gap between us has truly widened."

Previously, relying on the defensive power and unique spatial abilities of his martial soul, Gu Rong had managed to keep pace with the level 96 Chen Xin despite being level 95.

However, after level 95, every level gained doubled one's soul power. Now that Chen Xin had broken through to level 97, Gu Rong could no longer be his match.

Just as Chen Xin was about to offer some comfort, the sky screen descended with another golden light, which landed in Ning Fengzhi's hands.

It was the reward for Ning Fengzhi as the representative, which had been substituted for a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone due to his own physical limitations!

Ning Fengzhi had barely held it for a moment before passing it to Gu Rong, saying:

"Uncle Bone, do not be discouraged. Take this; perhaps it will help you break through the bottleneck that has kept you stuck at level 95 for so many years."

Gu Rong was stunned and waved his hands vigorously to refuse.

"No, I cannot take this! A Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone will be of almost no help to someone of my level. It would be best left for Rongrong!"

Ning Fengzhi said earnestly:

"Uncle Bone, this is no ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone. The situation on the continent is about to change, and the sect's strength urgently needs to be improved. Just accept it and absorb it!"

Chen Xin also urged:

"Old Bone, just take it and stop dawdling. If it weren't for Fengzhi saying it's for the sake of the sect, this would have to belong to Rongrong. How could it ever be your turn?"

Under their forceful insistence, Gu Rong finally accepted it with gratitude and sat cross-legged on the spot to begin the absorption.

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin turned their attention back to the sky screen, curious to see which factions were ranked above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Shrek Academy.

When Ning Rongrong saw her own sect on the list, she immediately jumped up and cheered:

"We're on the list! My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is on the list! You all saw it, didn't you!"

Yet, in the eyes of certain people, this was like a red-hot branding iron, searing their faces with shame!
