"Are you guys done being annoying?"
Huo Wu was just about to spar with her brother, her fighting spirit blazing.
Then she suddenly heard her teammates calling to her from nearby.
"Vice Captain..."
"Vice Captain, look at the Heavenly Ranking!"
"There's a surprise!"
There was no hint of joking in their voices.
Huo Wu could only glare at them before raising her head to look at the Heavenly Ranking.
Large golden words instantly entered her sight.
She stared blankly for several seconds.
Seeing this, Huo Wushuang picked up a towel and wiped the sweat from his face before looking up as well.
When he saw those familiar two characters, he could not help but rejoice. "Congratulations, little sister, you made the list!!"
"Thank you, Brother!"
Huo Wu was actually quite happy to have reached fourteenth place on the Beauty Ranking.
But she also felt a little unwilling.
After all, she was known as the number one beauty of the Wind-Fire Two Cities.
She should at least have been in the top ten, right?
And those damned teammates of hers had kept flattering her, saying she could make the top seven.
They had talked her into believing it herself.
She had even been thinking about what reward she might receive.
Perhaps a Soul Bone, an External Soul Bone, or her Soul Ring ages being raised to one hundred thousand years.
Just thinking about it excited her.
Yet she had only placed fourteenth.
Still, it was acceptable.
"It's all your fault for boasting so much. See what happened now? The Vice Captain feels let down!"
Huo Wushuang glared at several team members before comforting Huo Wu.
"You were already beautiful. Fourteenth place on the Beauty Ranking means you're one of the fourteen most beautiful women on the Douluo Continent. Just thinking about it makes me happy and proud for you!
From now on, whenever I go out, I'll say my little sister is fourteenth on the Beauty Ranking. How impressive is that? What an honorable thing!"
"Exactly... the Captain is absolutely right. We have a Vice Captain ranked fourteenth on the Beauty Ranking. The moment we say that, heaven and earth will tremble. Who wouldn't be shocked?"
"That's right. If anyone dares call us ugly, we'll bring out the Vice Captain and look down on them for not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth!"
"..." Huo Wu was left speechless.
"Buzz..." Golden runes appeared on the Heavenly Ranking.
They looked mysterious and sacred.
A beam of golden light shot down from the Heavenly Ranking.
It enveloped Huo Wu.
Golden light shimmered all over her body, making her look like a divine maiden descending into the world.
"Buzz..."
Faint crimson Soul Power surged around her.
Her Soul Power continuously increased, and her Soul Power Level rose by two and a half levels.
It rose from level forty-three to level forty-five and a half.
Then, four Soul Rings circled her body.
The colors of her Soul Rings began to change.
Her first and second Soul Rings changed from yellow to purple,
while the colors of her third and fourth Soul Rings deepened.
The age of every Soul Ring increased by one thousand five hundred years.
She felt her Soul Power continue to soar.
It surged from level forty-five and a half to level forty-seven and a half.
Huo Wu felt a mysterious power enveloping her, making her feel as though her charm had increased somewhat.
Then, she discovered that her fourth Soul Ring had also changed, becoming a deeper purple.
So this was the thirty percent increase in the power of her fourth soul skill?
She could feel it, but could not put it into words.
Immediately, the Soul Rings beneath her feet slowly rose. Her shadow gradually turned crimson.
It became three-dimensional.
Like another Huo Wu.
Crimson Soul Power coiled around it, radiating scorching heat.
After Martial Soul Possession, a faint orange-red shadow identical to Huo Wu's figure gradually emerged behind her. The blurry Fire Shadow was filled with an illusory feeling.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Fiery Dance Shining Sun!"
As Huo Wu gave a low cry, flames gathered in her hands and eventually condensed into an enormous white fireball above her head.
The white fireball was sixty percent larger than before.
The heat it emitted was also far beyond what it had once been.
After all, her fourth Soul Ring had gained one thousand five hundred years, and its power had increased by thirty percent. This was definitely not as simple as merely becoming thirty percent larger.
Huo Wu was extremely excited.
"Congratulations, little sister!"
Seeing the enormous white fireball, Huo Wushuang exclaimed in amazement, "So big, so beautiful!"
"Congratulations, Vice Captain!"
The members of the Blazing Fire Team all congratulated Huo Wu.
Huo Wu was also thrilled. "Haha, all my Soul Rings are purple now. With this fourth soul skill, I can definitely defeat any opponent around my age!"
"Mm!" Huo Wushuang nodded, delighted for his sister.
Shrek Academy.
Tang San and the others wore grave expressions.
"Another academy's beauty has made the list—Blazing Fire Academy... Those rewards are way too amazing!"
Ma Hongjun was filled with envy, wishing he were an unparalleled beauty himself.
"Heh... isn't she only fourteenth? My Xiao Wu can definitely rank in the top three!"
Tang San was dismissive, looking down on fourteenth place.
"Buzz..."
The Heavenly Ranking suddenly changed again.
[Beauty Ranking, Thirteenth Place: Xiao Wu] [Affiliation: Shrek Academy] [Appearance: 96.5] [Evaluation: Xiao Wu had silky-smooth black hair that fell past her calves. Her peerlessly beautiful face was fair and captivating, while her eyes were especially lively. Her appearance was graceful and moving, and she possessed an indescribable special temperament. She was lively and kind, always willing to help others, and thus received bonus points. However, because she would be unable to consume Immortal Herbs in the future, she would not change much. Therefore, she was only ranked thirteenth.] [Reward: Soul Power Level +3, all Soul Ring ages +2,000 years, Charm +12, Temperament +5, third soul skill Teleportation distance +10 meters.]
The world seemed as if time had frozen.
Everyone was stunned. The rewards truly were unbelievably good.
Three levels increased, and all Soul Ring ages increased by two thousand years.
It was unimaginable.
A student of Shrek Academy?
Another student.
There really were so many young peerless beauties on the Douluo Continent.
Many people were envious of Xiao Wu.
However, Tang San glared angrily at the Heavenly Ranking, flames blazing in his eyes.
He looked utterly furious.
Heavenly Ranking, you have earned your death.
How dare you rank my Xiao Wu thirteenth.
My Xiao Wu is so beautiful.
How could she only be thirteenth?
Are you joking?
His expression darkened to the extreme.
His face had been slapped with resounding force.
He had confidently claimed that Xiao Wu would absolutely be in the top three, perhaps even first.
He had not expected Xiao Wu to be only thirteenth.
The gap was far too great.
He could not accept it.
"Congratulations, Xiao Wu!"
Dai Mubai had not expected Xiao Wu to rank only thirteenth.
Tang San had just been boasting that Xiao Wu could enter the top three. Well, how did that turn out?
The Heavenly Ranking had slapped him in the face, had it not?
"Congratulations, Xiao Wu!"
Ma Hongjun said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Xiao Wu was actually thrilled. Thirteenth place was already exceptionally good.
It was about what she had expected.
So she was not unhappy at all. On the contrary, she was very happy.
Because the Heavenly Ranking had not exposed her identity.
That was what excited her the most.
"Third Brother, thirteenth place is actually very good. I'm happy!"
Seeing Tang San's gloomy expression, Xiao Wu immediately went over to comfort him.
"This damned Heavenly Ranking has no eyes. My Xiao Wu's beauty is unmatched. How could she only..."
Before Tang San could finish, a clap of thunder suddenly exploded above his head.
"Boom..." A bolt of lightning descended from the sky.
It instantly struck Tang San. He screamed as he leaped into the air, striking a pose like "You're So Beautiful."
Then his entire body turned black, his hair stood on end, foam spilled from his mouth, and the smell of burnt flesh rose from him as he collapsed to the ground.
"Holy shit..."
