Fang Han seemed oblivious to the exclamations around him, all his concentration had been concentrated on the sword in his hand.
Internal Qi surged, pouring into the sword body, Azure Edge Sword trembled slightly, and the airflow around the sword body began to gather and compress crazily, making a low whimpering sound.
An unparalleled Sword Intent, which seemed to be able to tear everything apart, spread out with him as the center, causing the disciples who were slightly closer to feel a faint tingling on their skin, and subconsciously took half a step back.
Void Splitting Gold Severing!
Azure Edge Sword turned into a cyan lightning that tore through the sky, striking the smooth surface of Martial Dao Stele at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.
Perfectly combine the power of Greater Accomplishment level <Wind Splitting Sword Technique> with the majesty of Seventh Grade Internal Qi!
"Boom!!!"
A loud bang that was far duller and more violent than any previous test suddenly exploded.
The whole body of Martial Dao Stele shines with brilliance, and the light is so fierce that it is like a small sun rising suddenly, illuminating the entire White Jade Plaza in a snow-white color that makes it impossible to look directly at it.
The surface of the monument shook violently, and ripple-like ripples spread wildly at an unprecedented amplitude, as if the entire monument was trembling.
After the name Fang Han, the number representing the ranking began to beat!
Three... two... one!
The number suddenly freezes - one!
It has surpassed Li Feng, and even surpassed Yun Qianyue, which has occupied the top spot for a long time, ranking first in Zi Courtyard!
The entire square fell into dead silence for an instant.
Everyone looked at the name at the top of the list in stunned silence, as if they were petrified.
After a brief silence, there was an uproar like a volcano erupting!
"First! Fang Han rushed to the first place!"
"Yun Qianyue was surpassed by him!"
"This kind of talent is really terrifying!"
Exclaims, admirations, and gasps of air mingled together, and everyone's eyes were focused on Fang Han, who was standing with a sword and a calm expression, full of extreme shock.
If Fang Han hadn't been at odds with Tianjiao True Disciple Chu Feng and didn't want to be harmed by being close to Fang Han, they would have surrounded him by now.
Xiao Chen punched hard, his face full of excitement and pride, as if he was the one who topped the list.
Fang Han Slowly sheathed the sword and let out a breath of turbid air.
Looking at the first name on the monument, there was not much excitement in his eyes, only a natural calmness and indifference.
He turned around, nodded slightly to Xiao Chen, then separated from the crowd who were still in shock, and returned to his residence with steady steps.
Behind him, the huge noise could not subside for a long time.
The news that Fang Han broke through Seventh Rank and topped the list of Zi Courtyard spread throughout Zi Courtyard at an astonishing speed as if it had wings.
Li Feng was practicing his sword. After hearing the news, the dancing long sword suddenly stopped, and the tip of the sword trembled slightly.
He was silent for a moment, with no expression on his stern face, except that the knuckles of the hands holding the knife were slightly white from exertion.
Immediately, instead of being depressed, his eyes ignited with an even more intense fighting spirit, and he whispered.
"Seventh Rank... very good! This will make you want to catch up!"
After that, he continued to practice with the sword, and the wind of the sword became more and more fierce.
At this moment, in another house of Zi Courtyard, Yun Qianyue was dressed in purple.
After hearing the notice from the female disciple, a faint wave of emotion flashed across her purple gauze, as cold as a cold pool, in her eyes, which seemed helpless and understanding, and finally turned into an almost inaudible sigh.
"Sure enough... he was still surpassed."
She had anticipated this day, but she didn't expect that it would come so quickly and suddenly.
She raised her head and looked in the direction of C-Grade Dormitory. Her eyes were complicated, with feelings of loss, relief, and a hint of unnoticeable... relaxation?
Perhaps, being at the top of the list all the time is also an invisible pressure.
The news naturally reached the ears of Chen Xuan Elder.
He slowly raised his head, his face filled with incredible shock, and murmured, "In one year, from Ninth-rank early stage to Seventh Rank?"
After the shock, I felt indescribable joy.
I am glad that I withstood the pressure and resolutely defended Fang Han, and did not let this martial arts prodigy die due to the suppression.
The dusk is getting darker, and Zi Courtyard is shrouded in a hazy gray-blue.
Zi Courtyard disciples were chatting in small groups in twos and threes, and most of the topics revolved around Fang Han becoming the new Zi Courtyard number one.
After hearing the news, Chen Ying lowered his head and hurriedly walked through the bluestone path and headed outside Zi Courtyard.
He once performed missions and fought side by side with Fang Han. If Fang Han hadn't turned the tide of the battle, he would have already confessed at that time, and it can be said that his life was saved by Fang Han.
The gratitude and side-by-side friendship really existed at that time.
But later, Fang Han offended Chu Feng True Disciple, who was ranked Prodigy Ranking.
Driven by realistic considerations and inner cowardice, he chose to distance himself from Fang Han, and even... chose another path.
He walked faster and faster, almost trotting out of the Zi Courtyard range and speeding in the direction of Wei Courtyard.
In a corner of Wei Courtyard, in a house, Song Xiang was slowly sipping tea and listening to a disciple's report.
As one of the spokespersons of Chu Feng among ordinary disciples, his life was quite comfortable, and he had many disciples who came to join him.
There was a gentle knock on the door, with a hint of urgency.
Song Xiang waved this disciple away and said calmly, "Come in."
Chen Ying pushed the door open and entered, breathing slightly quickly.
He looked at Song Xiang, who was sitting upright, with a stiff smile on his face, and his voice was filled with unconcealable nervousness.
"Senior Brother Song..."
Song Xiang raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Ying. He was not surprised by the arrival of Chen Ying, because Chen Ying had been developed into an informant by him, but the other party's ugly face made him frown slightly.
He put down Teacup and his tone was calm.
"Why are you so panicked? Is there any movement over there at Fang Han?"
"Yes... yes, Senior Brother Song."
Chen Ying swallowed and tried to make his voice steady.
"Fang Han He... He went to Martial Dao Stele for testing today..."
Song Xiang's eyes flashed with impatience, signaling for him to continue.
"He... he has broken through to the Seventh Grade Internal Qi level! And... and his ranking has surpassed Yun Qianyue, and is now...Zi Courtyard first!"
Chen Ying finished speaking in one breath, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, but he felt exhausted again.
"What?!"
Song Xiang's original leisurely posture froze for an instant, and the calmness on his face was suddenly broken, replaced by extreme shock and a hint of disbelief.
He suddenly put down Teacup, leaned forward, and stared at Chen Ying with his eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Seventh Rank? Zi Courtyard first? Are you sure the information is correct?!"
"It's absolutely true! Many disciples have seen it with their own eyes, and his name on Martial Dao Stele is indeed ranked first!"
Chen Ying nodded quickly with a positive tone.
Song Xiang's face turned completely gloomy, Seventh Rank! Zi Courtyard came first!
How long has it been since? How long has it been since Seven Sects Competition ended and Fang Han showed Grade Eight's mid-term cultivation?
Fang Han actually broke through again! And in one fell swoop, it surpassed Yun Qianyue, who has a profound background!
This kind of promotion speed is simply appalling!
Song Xiang felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
If Fang Han is allowed to continue to grow like this, I'm afraid it won't take long. Even if senior brother Chu Feng is True Disciple and ranks Prodigy Ranking, it will be extremely difficult to suppress him!
Action must be taken as soon as possible to prevent Fang Han from growing so smoothly!
Song Xiang's eyes flashed with cold light, and several thoughts flashed through his mind.
He raised his head and looked at the anxious Chen Ying, with his usual, slightly comforting smile on his face again, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"Junior Brother Chen, you have done a great job. This news is very important."
Song Xiang's voice slowed down, with a deliberate gentleness.
"Continue to pay attention to Fang Han's movements, especially whether he will take on the mission next. If there is any news, let me know immediately."
"Yes, Senior Brother Song, I understand."
Chen Ying quickly bowed and answered, feeling a little relieved.
"Go, be careful, don't make people suspicious." Song Xiang waved his hand.
Chen Ying, as if he had received an amnesty, saluted again and hurriedly left the room.
After Chen Ying left, the smile on Song Xiang's face disappeared instantly and was replaced by solemnity.
He walked a few steps in the room, pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind, straightened his robes, and quickly went out, heading in the direction of True Transmission Courtyard.
True Transmission Courtyard is located in the core area of Azure Profound Mountain, with a quiet environment and well-proportioned pavilions and pavilions, which is far from comparable to Zi Courtyard and Wei Courtyard.
Song Xiang arrived outside the courtyard where Chu Feng lived. After being passed around, he was introduced into an elegantly decorated study room with a faint Sandalwood Incense light.
Seeing Song Xiang arriving, Chu Feng asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
Song Xiang bowed and saluted, with a hint of urgency in his tone. "Brother Chu, I just got the news that Zi Courtyard that Fang Han... has broken through to the Seventh Grade Internal Qi level, and in today's Martial Dao Stele test, it surpassed Yun Qianyue and became the new number one in Zi Courtyard!"
"Crack."
Chu Feng turned around slowly. There was not much expression on that handsome but often arrogant face at the moment. Only in those deep eyes, there suddenly flashed a trace of shock that quickly subsided, and a trace of deeper, cold fear.
The air in the study seemed to be stagnant for a moment.
"Seventh Rank...Zi Courtyard first..."
Chu Feng repeated it in a low voice, his voice was steady but seemed to contain some kind of pressure.
He walked behind the desk and sat down, his fingertips lightly tracing over the smooth rosewood tabletop.
"I remember that when Seven Sects Competition was around, he was still in the middle of Grade Eight."
Chu Feng raised his eyes and his eyes fell on Song Xiang. Although he was asking, his tone was affirmative.
"Yes, senior brother, you remember correctly. This son's promotion speed is... really beyond the ordinary."
Song Xiang lowered his head and responded, with a slight sweat on his forehead.
Chu Feng was silent, with only the slight sound of wind outside the window and the gentle breathing of the two people left in the study.
Fang Han's growth far exceeded his initial expectations.
He originally thought he was just an ordinary disciple with a little talent who would collapse with just a little pressure, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a genius with deep hidden potential and rapid growth.
In one year, Subordinate Ninth Rank went to Seventh Rank, reaching the top of Zi Courtyard. This kind of talent is really amazing even among the Azure Profound Sect where there are so many geniuses.
If he is given a few more years, he may really threaten his position, or even... board that Prodigy Ranking?
