Global Martial Arts.

Inside a sophomore dormitory at Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

Zhang Xuan was drenched in sweat, panting like an ox.

"I've finally become a martial artist!"

Zhang Xuan was so moved he almost wanted to cry.

Eighteen years had passed since he arrived in the world of Global Martial Arts.

For eighteen years, he had remained disciplined and worked tirelessly, relying on his own efforts to successfully get admitted into Nanjiang Martial Arts University.

It is worth mentioning that he was in the same year as the "protagonist" of Global Martial Arts, Wang Jinyang.

But while Wang Jinyang was already a Rank-3 martial artist and the president of the Martial Arts Club at Nanjiang Martial Arts University, he had only just become a martial artist himself.

However, Zhang Xuan was not discouraged.

If you don't have the diamond drill, don't try to handle the porcelain work.

He lacked exceptional talent, his parents were both deceased, he wasn't a "double king," and he had absolutely no system. Being able to get into a martial arts university and become a martial artist by his sophomore year was already a very decent result for him.

Many martial arts students only become martial artists by the time they graduate; compared to them, he was already successful enough.

When he first arrived in Global Martial Arts, Zhang Xuan had been excited, fantasizing about holding the voluptuous and beautiful Spirit Emperor in his left arm, petting the Grey Cat with his right hand, and stepping on the Heavenly Emperor and the Seed under his feet.

However, without talent or a cheat code, all those fantasies remained just that—fantasies.

Fortunately, he didn't complain or blame others; instead, he leveled his mindset, worked hard, got into a martial arts university, and became a martial artist.

Now, Zhang Xuan's goal was to lay low. Once Fang Ping resolved everything and the interstellar era began, he, as a "veteran" of Nanjiang Martial Arts University, could at least have some soup, and who knows, maybe even reach Rank-6 or Rank-7.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but smile.

He stretched, preparing to take a shower and go out for a good meal to celebrate becoming a martial artist.

Just as he stood up, a flash of white light suddenly streaked by.

Zhang Xuan hurriedly closed his eyes and took a few steps back. When he opened them again, a system panel appeared directly before his eyes.

"A system!"

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, but the next moment, his expression turned a bit strange.

The system he awakened wasn't a "Deep Blue, add points" type, nor was it a furnace for refining weapons; it was an Exposure System!

The greater the potential impact caused by the exposure, the richer his rewards would be, and those who made the list would also receive rewards.

"Good grief,"

Zhang Xuan sighed inwardly.

Judging by this system alone, he would have thought he had transmigrated to Douluo Continent.

In his past life, Zhang Xuan had read many fan fictions about the Sky Screen exposing things in Douluo Continent, but this was his first time seeing a Sky Screen exposure for Global Martial Arts.

"Since that's the case, I'll give this world a little shock!"

Zhang Xuan's lips curled into a smile, and he already had several fun rankings in mind.

He immediately began to create the [Sneaky Ranking] with a smile.

In Global Martial Arts, how many sneaky people were there?

But who would be the number one sneaky person?

Just look at the list!

With the system's assistance, Zhang Xuan quickly finished creating the Sneaky Ranking.

Without a second thought, he launched it directly!

"Hot pot, I must have hot pot today to celebrate my new life!"

Zhang Xuan was all smiles, unable to stop himself from humming a little tune.

Following the system's launch, a massive golden Sky Screen tore through the firmament and hung across the horizon!

Throughout the entire world of Global Martial Arts—whether it was Earth, the Earth Cave, the Origin Source, or the small worlds—anyone who looked up could see the massive Sky Screen radiating a mysterious aura!

[The Sky Screen of the myriad worlds manifests to establish the Heavenly Dao rankings.]

[Those who make the list shall receive gifts; the higher the rank, the greater the gift.]

Magnificent golden subtitles appeared, and a sacred, emotionless voice resounded throughout the entire world.

[First list, the Sneaky Ranking!]

Faced with such a terrifying and shocking mysterious phenomenon, no one in the world could look away!

In an instant, everyone was stirred into action!

Whether on Earth, in the Earth Cave, the Origin Source, or the small worlds, everyone was focused on the phenomenon of the Sky Screen!

Magic Martial University, Fang Ping, who had just finished tempering his bones, looked at the phenomenon in the sky, feeling somewhat nervous.

"Why did the sky suddenly change? Could it have something to do with my system?"

Fang Ping muttered to himself, feeling incredibly nervous.

He couldn't help but overthink it; after all, he was a reincarnator and possessed a system.

If this Sky Screen exposed him as a Sneaky Bastard who had been reborn and had a system, he would be finished!

"System, you can't just screw over your host like this!"

Fang Ping was on the verge of tears. He wanted to run, but with his current strength, where could he possibly go?

Human Realm, Capital.

"Minister, the strange Sky Screen in the sky can be seen from everywhere, even in the Earth Cave!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tao's heart sank.

Such immense power could not possibly be man-made. Could it be the legendary immortals, or perhaps an extraterrestrial civilization from a higher dimension?

But what was their purpose in doing this? It couldn't just be for fun.

Zhang Tao looked at the Sky Screen hanging across the horizon, his brows furrowed tightly. His heart skipped a beat, and he felt inexplicably anxious.

"Sky Screen exposure, Sneaky Ranking..."

Sneaky Bastard... would he end up on the list?

If he were on the list, wouldn't all his various schemes be completely exposed by this bizarre Sky Screen?

Humanity would be in danger!

"Zhang Tao, the sky has changed!"

Li Zhen tore through the void and arrived at Zhang Tao's side with a grave expression.

"I have already asked the ancestor, and even he does not know the origin of the Sky Screen!"

"Even the Heaven Suppressing King doesn't know the origin of the Sky Screen?"

Zhang Tao's expression became extremely solemn. He pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision.

"Pass the order down: enter a state of combat readiness and consolidate the defensive lines!"

"Tell the powerhouses stationed in all sectors to be ready to suppress riots and calm the public at any moment!"

Once the Sky Screen made its exposures, whoever from the Sneaky Ranking appeared would inevitably cause a massive uproar!

Especially that so-called gift... if a Earth Cave True King obtained a powerful gift, humanity would truly be in imminent peril!

Earth Cave, Heavenly Plant Royal Court.

King Huai looked at the Sky Screen, his expression shifting between light and shadow.

He often studied human civilization, so he naturally understood the meaning of "Sneaky Bastard."

Sneaky Bastard = a cunning, underhanded person.

"No, I have to get out and hide!"

Recalling the things he had done, King Huai made his decision immediately.

Regardless of whether he would make the list, he was going to run away and hide in a place where others couldn't easily find him.

While King Huai was fleeing, the Ming King of the Heavenly Fate Royal Court was sneering.

"Sky Screen? Playing god!"

The Ming King let out a cold laugh, his eyes filled with disdain.

He wanted to see exactly who was playing these tricks!

In the next moment, the Ming King shot up from the ground and threw a punch at the Sky Screen, shattering the void!

"Ah!!!"

Before the Ming King could strike the Sky Screen, the force of his punch rebounded, instantly blasting him away and causing him to cough up blood.

"Father!"

"Grandfather!"

"That's the Palace Master!"

"The Ming King flew up, and the Ming King flew back!"

"The Ming King seems to be spitting blood... and quite a lot of it!"

The True Kings and the crowd of the Heavenly Fate Royal Court watched as the Ming King flew toward the Sky Screen and came flying back while spitting blood. They were all struck with terror, feeling immense awe and vigilance toward the Sky Screen.

"Pfft, what the hell is this Sky Screen? It can actually reflect my attacks!"

The Ming King's body trembled as he spat out a large mouthful of blood, staring at the Sky Screen with a mix of vigilance and fear.

At the same time, within the Origin Source, the God Emperor, the Eastern Emperor, the Heaven Fighting Emperor, and the others were also feeling incredibly grave.

"The Sky Screen... I don't know if this sudden turn of events is a blessing or a curse."

"This Sky Screen projected itself into the Origin Source without the slightest omen or trace; the strength of the person behind this is truly terrifying!"

"Doesn't this mean there's a possibility we might be exposed as well?"

"Ten thousand years of planning could be ruined in an instant!"

"..."

Even the suppressed Heavenly Emperor heard the voice from the Sky Screen. He gazed at the screen, his expression shifting, his heart tightening.

Could this phenomenon... be the result of the Seed and the Yang God working together?!

Within the small world, The Earth Emperor Avatar Daoist Fengyun watched the Sky Screen quietly.

He suddenly smiled: "Interesting, the world is about to descend into chaos!"

Sneaky bastards, hidden schemers... he was also very curious to know which sneaky bastards existed within the Three Realms, and where he, Hong, the Earth Emperor, would rank among them!

Global Martial Arts Power Rankings: Rank 1 to Rank 9, with Rank 1 being the lowest; Rank 7 can be called a Grandmaster. Above Rank 9, humans are Peak, and the Earth Cave has True Kings. Above Peak is the Emperor level, also known as Emperor Venerable. Above the Emperor level is the Saint realm, and above Saints are Heavenly Kings. Heavenly Kings are divided into Breaking Six, Breaking Seven, and Breaking Eight Heavenly Kings! Above Breaking Eight is Breaking Nine, which is also the realm of Emperors!
