"Disclaimer: This ranking is based on past records, reputation, items, and other data. It is not guaranteed to be completely accurate and is for reference only."
1: Zhao Chenghuang, Taiyi Sect, Level 3 Night Wanderer.
[Note: Elder Zhao of the Taiyi Sect's great-grandson. He had already reached Level 3 three years ago and placed third in that year's arena tournament. For unknown reasons, he deliberately remained at the Transcendent Stage and had yet to advance to the Saint Realm. Zhao Chenghuang was exceptionally low-profile and rarely fought others. According to reliable sources, his sparring partners were Walkers in the Saint Realm. Walkers at the Transcendent Stage had long ceased to catch his eye.]
[Reason for ranking: His experience bar is full, his items are plentiful, he controls a Level 4 Yin Corpse (Fire Master), and he has honed every Night Wanderer skill to perfection.]
2: Earth Lord, Central Court, Level 3 Earth Monster.
[Note: Earth Lord placed in the top five of last year's arena tournament. The old man specializes in defense. We still remember how that year's top-ranked contestant was nearly worn down until he collapsed and conceded. Most of the top ten contestants from that year have already become Saints. In a sense, Earth Lord and Zhao Chenghuang have taken the same path, both tempering themselves at the Transcendent Stage for years. This year, the old man has returned with a vengeance. That thick armor of his—tsk, tsk. Plenty of people must already be panicking.]
[Reason for ranking: Stack the thickest armor and take the nastiest beating. Your old man
