Third Place: Lu Xia?

Everyone looked toward the Heavenly Ranking.

The Heavenly Ranking gleamed with golden light.

Snow Empress's information slowly faded away.

The words belonging to third place were about to appear.

Qingyun Academy.

"I'm so excited! We've finally reached third place!" Ning Rongrong said, looking curiously at the Heavenly Ranking.

"Who will third place be?"

Wang Xia'er said excitedly:

"I never expected the pills the headmaster refined from my Immortal Herb, along with drinking the Spirit Liquid, would evolve my Martial Soul from Demigod Level to God Level!"

"Thank you, Headmaster!"

Wang Xia'er bowed deeply to Lu Xia.

"It's nothing."

Lu Xia shrugged and reached out to help her up.

"I think the headmaster might be on the list," Zhu Zhuqing said, pursing her lips.

"Yeah!" The others thought it was possible as well.

"Buzz..."

One golden character after another appeared on the Heavenly Ranking.

[Beauty Ranking, Third Place: Lu Xia's Clone]

[Affiliated Faction: Qingyun Academy]

[Appearance: 99.5]

[Evaluation: Lu Xia's Clone possesses peerless beauty, extraordinary bearing, boundless charm, an almost perfect figure, skin so fair it seemed to glow, and features as beautiful as a god's.

Every gesture he made marked him as an incomparably beautiful male deity who drew the attention of both men and women.

His handsomeness could be discovered anytime, anywhere.

Anyone who caught even a glimpse of him would never forget him for the rest of their life.

His beauty lay not only in his features and figure, but also in the charm of his soul.

Thus, he was qualified to be ranked.]

Shrek Academy.

"What the hell? The Qingyun Academy headmaster's clone actually got third place on the Beauty Ranking? I refuse to accept this!"

Tang San stared at the Heavenly Ranking in shock, finding it somewhat unbelievable. Even a clone could make the list.

Wouldn't Lu Xia's true body be even more incredible? Ranked even higher?

"What the hell? It's already impressive enough for a man to rank sixth, seventh, or eighth. Why does one have to take third place too? I refuse to accept it! This is rigged!"

Ma Hongjun roared as well.

In short, many people were deeply dissatisfied.

They were dissatisfied with the Heavenly Ranking's rankings.

Yu Xiaogang was equally displeased. Any random trash could make the list?

"That Lu Xia must look like a pile of dog shit!"

Flender was also extremely dissatisfied that Lu Xia had entered the top three.

"Damn, anyone really can get on the list!"

"And he's even in the top three..."

Amid the complaints of countless dissatisfied people—

Lu Xia's Clone's portrait appeared.

In an instant, the entire continent fell silent.

Everyone stood dumbfounded, staring open-mouthed at the portrait on the Heavenly Ranking.

"Holy shit... Can a man really be this monstrously beautiful?"

"Fuck me... He's way too damn handsome!"

"Hubby..."

"Daddy..."

Spirit Hall, Pope's Palace.

"So this was what Lu Xia looked like!"

Bibi Dong had seen many handsome men, yet even she widened her eyes at the image on the Heavenly Ranking.

He was simply breathtaking.

This was merely a clone, yet he was already absurdly handsome.

Wouldn't the true body be beyond anyone's reach?

Hu Liena was also stunned by Lu Xia's beauty, blankly staring at the portrait on the Heavenly Ranking.

Her pupils had widened considerably. Was this her destined man?

Wow, he was so handsome.

She was becoming a little lovestruck, her heart blooming with joy as her breathing turned slightly hurried.

It was the natural reaction of someone with no resistance to handsome men.

Her face had even flushed faintly as she stared.

Heaven Dou City, Crown Prince Palace.

Xue Qinghe, Elder Guang Ling, Elder Porcupinefish, and Elder Snake Lance all gazed at the incomparably handsome youth on the Heavenly Ranking.

His beauty was breathtaking.

Seeing him again, Xue Qinghe was once more captivated by his looks, her eyes seemingly about to pop out as though she were sinking deeply into them.

"Damn... What a monster!"

Elder Guang Ling was speechless.

"He looks fucking incredible!"

Elder Snake Lance sucked in a cold breath.

"He's truly handsome and majestic!!!"

Elder Porcupinefish exclaimed in amazement.

"Does the Young Mistress like Lu Xia? Even his clone can rank third on the Beauty Ranking. Wouldn't his true body be unbelievable?"

Elder Guang Ling looked at Xue Qinghe.

"No!"

Xue Qinghe's small face reddened. She had barely exchanged a few words with Lu Xia. Though she had been drawn to his looks, that did not mean she liked him already. She still needed to learn whether their personalities were compatible.

She could not possibly throw herself at him the moment she saw him and tell him she liked him or something.

And then spend a wild night with him.

That was even more impossible.

"Haha... You're blushing!" Elder Porcupinefish laughed loudly.

Qingyun Academy.

Everyone cried out in surprise.

"Wow... The headmaster made the list!"

"It's the headmaster's clone that made the list!"

"Right, that still counts as making the list. This is wonderful!"

Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Shui Bing'er, and Wang Xia'er were all extremely excited, hugging one another to celebrate.

It was as though they themselves had made the list.

Wei Zhuang, Zhao Yun, and the others were also very happy for Lu Xia.

They all looked toward Lu Xia.

"Headmaster, could... could the one standing before us be a clone?"

Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

"Exactly. We haven't been talking to Headmaster Lu Xia's clone this entire time, have we?"

Wang Xia'er asked curiously as well.

"If the one here now is a clone, then where is your true body?"

Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously.

The female students fired off questions one after another.

The other teachers also looked over, wanting to know whether this was a clone or the true body.

They were simply too curious.

Their hearts itched unbearably.

Moreover, the headmaster's strength was extraordinarily formidable.

None of the teachers were his match.

If even his clone was this powerful, then the strength of his true body was simply unimaginable.

Everyone else looked at Lu Xia.

Lu Xia merely smiled faintly. "Does it matter whether I'm a clone? Aren't we both me?"

"It does, but we still want to know!" Ning Rongrong said helplessly. The headmaster was acting mysterious now.

"Exactly. We also want to know how strong the headmaster's true body is."

Shui Bing'er could not help asking as well.

"Then I..."

Lu Xia had just been about to speak.

The Heavenly Ranking radiated boundless golden light.

One golden character after another appeared.

[Reward: Raise one minor realm, increase the age of all Soul Rings by twenty-five thousand years, Charm +50, Bearing +50, Domain Power +200%.]

"Wow... The headmaster seems to have Three-Life Martial Soul, right? That means twenty-seven Soul Rings. The total increase in Soul Ring age is way too high, isn't it?"

"Right, and the headmaster has three domains too!"

"666..."

"This time, he's hit the jackpot!"

The beautiful girls looked toward Lu Xia upon seeing the reward, all happy for him.

"Congratulations, Headmaster!"

"Congratulations, Headmaster..."

In short, they were even happier than if they had made the list themselves. They all congratulated Lu Xia, overflowing with joy.

Even the quiet Ye Lingling congratulated Lu Xia.

"Thank you."

Lu Xia nodded. He had not expected them to be more excited than he was.

Zhu Zhuqing and the others already knew how to determine whether the headmaster before them was a clone.

If golden light from the Heavenly Ranking descended and enveloped the headmaster before them, then he was the clone.

If it enveloped somewhere else, then he was the true body.

She even transmitted this thought to the others.

The others all gave Zhu Zhuqing a thumbs-up, praising her for being incredibly clever.

Everyone's gaze fell upon Lu Xia.

They were all extremely curious and full of anticipation, their eyes shining brightly.

"Buzz..."

The Heavenly Ranking blazed with boundless golden light.

A beam of golden light descended from the sky and shot toward Qingyun Academy.
